Project description:Inborn defects in DNA repairare associated with complex developmental disorders whose causal mechanisms are poorly understood. Using an in vivo biotinylation tagging approach in mice, we show that the nucleotide excision repair (NER) structure-specific endonuclease ERCC1-XPF complex interacts with the insulator binding protein CTCF, the cohesin subunits SMC1A and SMC3 and with MBD2; the factors co-localize with ATRX at the promoters and control regions (ICRs) of imprinted genes during postnatal hepatic development. Loss of Ercc1or exposure to mitomycin C triggers the localization of CTCF to heterochromatin, the dissociation of the CTCF-cohesin complex and ATRXfrom promoters and ICRs,altered histone marks and the aberrant developmental expression of imprinted genes without altering DNA methylation. We propose that ERCC1-XPF cooperates with CTCF and the cohesinto facilitatet he developmental silencing of imprinted genes and that persistent DNA damage triggers chromatin changes that affect gene expression programs associated with NER disorders.

Project description:The ERCC1-XPF heterodimer is a multifunctional endonuclease involved in nucleotide excision repair (NER), inter-strand crosslink (ICL) repair, and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. Only two patients with inherited ERCC1 defects have been reported who both died at an early age. Here, we describe a new case of ERCC1 deficiency in two siblings (11 and 13 years) who show mild features of Xeroderma Pigmentosum and Cockayne Syndrome. Both patients displayed microcephaly, mild developmental delay, mild photosensitivity, and severe cholestatic liver problems. Genetic analysis revealed a maternal deletion and a paternal missense variant in ERCC1 (R156W) that affect a salt bridge just below the XPA-binding pocket. Studies in patient-derived fibroblasts and reconstituted knockout cells confirmed that mutant ERCC1 is not efficiently recruited to the NER complex due to a decreased interaction with XPA. Consequently, patient cells show a strong NER defect, although residual repair could be detected. The steady-state protein levels of ERCC1 and XPF were severely reduced in patient cells, but this only led to a mild defect in ICL repair, and no impact on DSB repair. We report a new case of ERCC1 deficiency that particularly affect NER and has only a mild impact on other ERCC1-dependent repair pathways.

Project description:DNA damage and metabolic disorders are intimately linked with premature disease onset but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we show that persistent DNA damage accumulation in tissue-infiltrating macrophages carrying an ERCC1-XPF DNA repair defect (Er1F/-) riggers Golgi dispersal, dilation of endoplasmic reticulum, autophagy and exosome biogenesis leading to the secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in vivo and ex vivo. Macrophage-derived EVs accumulate in Er1F/- animal sera and are secreted in macrophage media after DNA damage. The Er1F/- EV cargo is taken up by recipient cells leading to an increase in insulin-independent glucose transporter levels, enhanced cellular glucose uptake, higher cellular oxygen consumption rate and greater tolerance to glucose challenge in mice. We find that high glucose in EV-targeted cells triggers pro-inflammatory stimuli via mTOR activation. This, in turn, establishes chronic inflammation and tissue pathology in mice with important ramifications for DNA repair-deficient, progeroid syndromes and aging.

Project description:Background: Several genetic defects of the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway, including deficiency of the Excision Repair Cross-Complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 1 (ERCC1), result in pre-mature aging, impaired growth, microcephaly and delayed development of the cerebellum. Such a phenotype also occurs in ERCC1-knockout mice which survive for up to 4 weeks after birth. Therefore, we analyzed cerebellar and hippocamapal transcriptomes of these animals at 3 weeks of age to identify the candidate mechanisms underlying brain consequences of reduced ERCC1 activity. Results: In the cerebellum, the most prominent change was upregulation of genes that are associated with gliosis. Although Purkinje cell degeneration has been reported in some mouse strains with NER impairment, Purkinje cell transcriptome was mostly unaffected by the ERCC1 knockout. In the hippocampus, the gliosis response was minimal. Instead, there was an extensive downregulation of genes related to lipid metabolism including several enzymes of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as well as lipoproteins and plasma membrane proteins. Reduced expression of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway genes was also present in the neocortex of adult mice whose ERCC1 gene was replaced by a mutant allele with a partial activity. Conclusions: Downregulation of forebrain cholesterol biosynthesis genes is a newly identified consequence of ERCC1 deficiency. Its presence in adult mice suggests that it is not a secondary consequence of brain growth impairment. Instead, reduced cholesterol biosynthesis may contribute to such an impairment as well as affect function of mature synapses. We analyzed the hippocampus and cerebellum from three Ercc1-/- and three WT littermates using the Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430_2.0. Data was analyzed using the dChip DNA-Chip analyzer software .

Project description:The rates at which lesions are removed by DNA repair can vary widely throughout the genome with important implications for genomic stability. We measured the distribution of nucleotide excision repair (NER) rates for UV induced lesions throughout the yeast genome. By plotting these repair rates in relation to all ORFs and their associated flanking sequences, we reveal that in normal cells, genomic repair rates display a distinctive pattern, suggesting that DNA repair is highly organised within the genome. We compared genome-wide DNA repair rates in wild type and in RAD16 deleted cells, which are defective in the global genome-NER (GG-NER) sub-pathway, demonstrating how this alters the normalâ¨distribution of NER rates throughout the genome. We examine the genomic locations of global genome NER factor binding in chromatin before and after UV irradiation, and reveal that GG-NER is organized and initiated from specific locations. By controlling the chromatin occupancy of the histone acetyl transferase Gcn5, the GG-NER complex regulates the histone H3 acetylation status and chromatin structure in the vicinity of these genomic sites to promote the efficient DNA repair of UV induced lesions. This demonstrates that chromatin remodeling during the GG-NER process is organized into domains in the genome. Importantly, we demonstrate that deleting the histone modifier GCN5, an accessory factor required for chromatin remodeling during GG-NER, significantly alters the genomic distribution of NER rates. These observations could have important implications for the effect of histone and chromatin modifiers on the distribution of genomic mutations acquired throughout the genome.

Project description:C. difficile infections have become a major challenge in medical facilities today. The bacterium is capable of spore formation, which even allows survival of antibiotic treatment. Therefore, research on the physiology of C. difficile is important for the development of alternative treatment strategies. In this study, we investigated eight putative flavodoxins of C. difficile 630. Flavodoxins are small electron transfer proteins of specifically low potential. The unusually high number of flavodoxins in C. difficile compared to other bacteria suggests that they are expressed under different conditions. Therefore, we investigated expression along bacterial growth and found high transcription levels during the exponential growth phase, especially for floX. Since flavodoxins in other bacteria are capable of replacing ferredoxins with their [2Fe-2S] clusters under iron deficiency conditions, we also examined flavodoxin expression in C. difficile under low iron and no iron levels.

Project description:The completion of the Plasmodium falciparum clone 3D7 genome provides a basis on which to conduct comparative proteomics studies of this human pathogen. Here, we applied a high-throughput proteomics approach to identify new potential drug and vaccine targets and to better understand the biology of this complex protozoan parasite. We characterized four stages of the parasite life cycle (sporozoites, merozoites, trophozoites and gametocytes) by multidimensional protein identification technology. Functional profiling of over 2,400 proteins agreed with the physiology of each stage. Unexpectedly, the antigenically variant proteins of var and rif genes, defined as molecules on the surface of infected erythrocytes, were also largely expressed in sporozoites. The detection of chromosomal clusters encoding co-expressed proteins suggested a potential mechanism for controlling gene expression. Keywords: ordered

Project description:Parkinson disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the accumulation of alpha-synuclein (SNCA) and other proteins in aggregates termed âLewy Bodiesâ within neurons. PD has both genetic and environmental risk factors, and while processes leading to aberrant protein aggregation are unknown, past work points to abnormal levels of SNCA and other proteins. Although several genome-wide studies have been performed for PD, these have focused on DNA sequence variants by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and on RNA levels (microarray transcriptomics), while genome-wide proteomics analysis has been lacking. After appropriate filters, proteomics identified 3,558 unique proteins and 283 of these (7.9%) were significantly different between PD and controls (q-value<0.05). RNA-sequencing identified 17,580 protein-coding genes and 1,095 of these (6.2%) were significantly different (FDR p-value<0.05), but only 166 of the FDR significant protein-coding genes (0.94%) were present among the 3,558 proteins characterized. Of these 166, eight genes (4.8%) were significant in both studies, with the same direction of effect. Functional enrichment analysis of the proteomics results strongly supports mitochondrial-related pathways, while comparable analysis of the RNA-sequencing results implicates protein folding pathways and metallothioneins. Ten of the implicated genes or proteins co-localized to GWAS loci. Evidence implicating SNCA was stronger in proteomics than in RNA-sequencing analyses. Notably, differentially expressed protein-coding genes were more likely to not be characterized in the proteomics analysis, which lessens the ability to compare across platforms. Combining multiple genome-wide platforms offers novel insights into the pathological processes responsible for this disease by identifying pathways implicated across methodologies. The study consists of mRNA-Seq (29 PD, 44 neurologically normal controls) and three-stage Mass Spectrometry Tandem Mass Tag Proteomics (12 PD, 12 neurologically normal controls) performed in post-mortem BA9 brain tissue. The proteomics samples are a subset of the RNA-Seq samples.
