Project description:SIRT3 has been shown to inhibit HCMV infection, but the mechanism under the antiviral effect is not clear. To identify the mediator of SIRT3 antiviral function, we aim to identify and quantify SIRT3 interactions during HCMV infection. A set of large-scale IPs were performed to determine the specific interactions with SIRT3 during infection, while small-scale IPs were conducted to determine the temporal interactions over the life cycle of infection. The mitochondrial proteome was used to characterize the changes of protein abundances after infection, and it was used for the normalization of acetylation.

Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are remarkably similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells, but recent reports indicate that there may be important differences between them. We carried out a systematic comparison of human iPS cells generated from hepatocytes (representative of endoderm), skin fibroblasts (mesoderm) and melanocytes (ectoderm). All low-passage iPS cells analysed retain a transcriptional memory of the original cells. The persistent expression of somatic genes can be partially explained by incomplete promoter DNA methylation. This epigenetic mechanism underlies a robust form of memory that can be found in iPS cells generated by multiple laboratories using different methods, including RNA transfection. Incompletely silenced genes tend to be isolated from other genes that are repressed during reprogramming, indicating that recruitment of the silencing machinery may be inefficient at isolated genes. Knockdown of the incompletely reprogrammed gene C9orf64 (chromosome 9 open reading frame 64) reduces the efficiency of human iPS cell generation, indicating that somatic memory genes may be functionally relevant during reprogramming. iPS cells were produced from melanocytes, fibroblasts, and hepatocytes, representing the three germ layers. Expression levels were profiled in the differentiated cells and their matched iPS cells, as well as 3 human ES cell lines (H1, H7 and H9) and their embroid bodies.

Project description:Aims: Skeletal muscle (SkM) abnormalities may impact exercise capacity in patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF). We sought to quantify differences in SkM oxidative phosphorylation capacity (OxPhos), fiber composition, and the SkM proteome between HFpEF, hypertensive (HTN), and Healthy participants. Methods: 59 subjects (20 Healthy, 19 HTN, 20 HFpEF) performed a maximal-effort cardiopulmonary exercise test to define peak oxygen consumption (VO2, peak), ventilatory threshold (VT), and VO2 efficiency (ratio of total work performed to O2 consumed). SkM OxPhos was assessed using Creatine Chemical-Exchange Saturation Transfer (CrCEST, n=51), which quantifies unphosphorylated Cr, before and after plantar flexion exercise. The half-time of Cr recovery (t1/2, Cr) was taken as a metric of in vivo SkM OxPhos. In a subset of subjects (Healthy=13, HTN=9, HFpEF=12), percutaneous biopsy of the vastus lateralis was performed for myofiber typing, mitochondrial morphology, and proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis. Results: HFpEF subjects demonstrated lower VO2,peak, VT, and VO2 efficiency than either control group (all p<0.05). The t1/2, Cr was significantly longer in HFpEF (p=0.005), indicative of impaired SkM OxPhos, and correlated with cycle ergometry exercise parameters. HFpEF SkM contained fewer Type-I myofibers (p=0.003). Proteomic analyses demonstrated (a) reduced levels of proteins related to OxPhos that correlated with exercise capacity and (b) reduced ERK signaling in HFpEF. Conclusions: HFpEF patients demonstrate impaired functional capacity and SkM OxPhos. Reductions in the proportions of type 1 myofibers, proteins required for OxPhos, and altered phosphorylation signaling in the SkM may contribute to exercise intolerance in HFpEF.

Project description:The molecular chaperone TRAP1, the mitochondrial isoform of cytosolic HSP90, remains poorly understood with respect to its pivotal role in the regulation of mitochondrial metabolism. Most studies have found it to be an inhibitor of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and an inducer of the Warburg phenotype of cancer cells. However, others have reported the opposite and there is no consensus on the relevant TRAP1 interactors. This calls for a more comprehensive analysis of the TRAP1 interactome and of how TRAP1 and mitochondrial metabolism mutually affect each other.

Project description:A challenge in systems biology is to understand the gene regulatory networks that connect early cellular specification to terminal differentiation of specific cell types. In neurogenesis, neural specification has been well studied, but the link between the proneural transcriptional regulators of specification and the genes that must be activated to construct differentiated neurons is obscure. High resolution temporal profiling of gene expression reveals the events downstream of Atonal (Ato) proneural gene function in Drosophila sensory neurons. Unexpectedly, many differentiation genes are activated soon after specification, even before cell cycle exit and overt neuronal differentiation. Prominent among them are genes required for construction of the ciliary dendrite. Ato activates differentiation both directly and indirectly via several intermediate transcriptional regulators, including Rfx and a new Forkhead family factor. Our analysis of these factors and their regulation provides insight into how proneural factors regulate neuronal subtype differentiation. Investigating the molecular mechanisms of peripheral nervous sytem development in Drosophila melanogaster. Affymetrix Drosophila version 2.0 chips used to measure gene expression from GFP+ and GFP- cells from embryos expressing GFP under the control of the atonal gene enhancer in both wild type and mutant embryos. Data generated for three developmental time-points in quadruplicate.

Project description:The RNA exosome is a key 3’-5’ exoribonuclease with evolutionary conserved structure and roles. Its cytosolic functions require the co-factors SKI7 and the Ski complex. Here we demonstrate by co-purification experiments that the ARM repeat protein RESURRECTION1 (RST1) and RST1 INTERACTING PROTEIN (RIPR) connect the cytosolic Arabidopsis RNA exosome to the Ski complex. rst1 and ripr mutants accumulate small RNAs many of which are quality control siRNAs (rqc-siRNAs) produced by the postranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS) machinery when mRNA degradation is compromised. Indeed, quasi identical small RNA populations are observed in mutants lacking the RRP45B/CER7 subunit of the core exosome. This biochemical and genetic evidence supports a physical and functional link between RST1, RIPR and the RNA exosome. Our data reveal the existence of additional cytosolic exosome co-factors besides the known SKI subunits. Interestingly, RST1 is not restricted to plants, as homologues with a similar domain architecture exist in animals, including humans.

Project description:Mass spectrometry (MS) has become the technique of choice for large-scale analysis of histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs) and their combinatorial patterns, especially in untargeted settings where novel discovery-driven hypotheses are being generated. However, MS-based histone analysis requires a distinct sample preparation, acquisition and data analysis workflow when compared to traditional MS-based approaches. To this end, sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra (SWATH) has great potential, as it allows for untargeted accurate identification and quantification of hPTMs. Here, we present a complete SWATH workflow specifically adapted for the untargeted study of histones (hSWATH). We assess its validity on a technical dataset of a time-lapse deacetylation of a commercial histone extract using HDAC1, which contains a ground truth, i.e. acetylated substrate peptides reduce in intensity. We successfully apply this workflow in a biological setting and subsequently investigate the differential response to HDAC inhibition in different breast cancer cell lines.

Project description:We used 8 strains the BXD mouse genetic reference population, including parents C57BL/6J and DBA/2J, to study the proteome of the heart, whole brain, liver, quadriceps, and brown adipose tissue (BAT) across 8 different genotypes. For each sample, we examined the proteome of the mitochondria, as well as the whole cell fraction (including mitochondria). Later, we supplemented this study with an additional 19 strains of BXD mouse, with one strain overlapping, in the BAT for both whole cell and mitochondrial extract to examine tissue-specific hypotheses generated from the original set of 8 strains. All together, these data allowed us to (1) examine proteome expression of the mitochondria, (2) examine differences in proteome expression across tissue, (3) examine differences in proteome expression across strain, and (4) examine all three of the preceding factors simultaneously against one-another. This allowed us to uncover several proteins which are expressed in the mitochondria but are not reported as such in the literature, of which we validated a few by traditional staining techniques. Furthermore, we compare our proteome data against transcriptome data gathered in the same individual mice. We observe (1) that differences in expression of genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation are far more tissue-dependent at the protein level than the transcript level, and (2) and we observe that the phenotypic relationship between BAT and thermogenesis is far more evident at the protein expression data than it is from the transcript expression. Together, these data provide two conclusions: (1) next-gen mass spectrometry proteomics techniques can identify organelle localizations that were not evident from other techniques (perhaps particularly those proteins which are expressed both inside and outside the mitochondria); and (2) proteome and transcriptome data are complimentary, and proteome data may help us find and test new hypotheses even for physiological pathways which have been well studied at the genetic and transcriptomic levels.

Project description:One of the most extensively studied protein modifications is phosphorylation, a reversible posttranslational modification (PTM) with a central role in a broad range of cellular processes such as cell metabolism, homeostasis, transcription and apoptosis. Due to their transient character, phosphorylations initiate and propagate signal transduction pathways, making these fundamental to inter- and intracellular communication. Detection of phosphorylation is nevertheless challenging considering the dynamic regulation, low stoichiometry and heterogeneous character of the phosphosites. Numerous dedicated phosphoproteomics workflows have therefore been developed in order to unravel phosphorylation networks and the activity of their modulating enzymes. In these workflows, phosphopeptides are typically enriched prior to mass spectrometry analysis to remove the strong background interference caused by the bulk of non-phosphorylated peptides (3). Apart from requiring thorough optimization and a corresponding high level of expertise of the analyst however, enrichment is also responsible for sample loss and limited quantitation accuracy (4). Subsequent mass spectrometry analysis is furthermore confounded by low ionization efficiency and inferior fragmentation of phosphopeptides. Conventional MS/MS analysis with collision-induced dissociation predominantly results in the neutral loss of the phosphate group, leading to poor sequence coverage due to reduced backbone fragmentation. An additional stage of fragmentation in MS3 or the use of alternative fragmentation technologies such as higher energy C-trap dissociation or electron transfer dissociation can partially facilitate the detection and identification of phosphopeptides (5, 6). In order to draw accurate biological conclusions it is mandatory to obtain quantitative information on the phospho-modifications. Most quantitative approaches aim to elucidate the relative phosphorylation changes between samples, employing direct label-free comparisons of phospho-enriched fractions, or metabolic or chemical labeling methods such as SILAC, iTRAQ or tandem mass tag (TMT) (4, 6, 7). Such methods however, forego the investigation of phosphorylation stoichiometry, also known as occupancy, since such analysis requires the simultaneous monitoring of the unphosphorylated counterpart (8). One interesting labeling strategy that is specifically designed to quantify occupancy circumvents the common difficulties of standard phosphopeptide detection by focusing on the non-phosphorylated counterparts of the phosphopeptides (11). Herein, a peptide sample is briefly split in two identical parts which are differentially labeled, preceding a phosphatase treatment of one part and mock-treatment of the other. Immediately afterwards the two parts are recombined for the subsequent LC-MS/MS analysis. Dephosphorylation of a phosphopeptide will induce a 79.979 mass shift resulting in a skewed label ratio in the unphosphorylated peptide’s reporter region which now specifies the phosphorylation stoichiometry (12). Although the principle has been described previously (12-19), only one phosphatase-based workflow was adapted specifically for the large-scale study of a complete lysate whereby known phosphopeptides present in a database were quantified by isotopic labels (20). Here we extend for the first time the isobaric tag equivalent of this approach for the large-scale quantitative phospho-analysis of complex mixtures. The technique was validated on three different instrument platforms on epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated HeLa cells (23). We discuss a novel data analysis approach for the discovery of high stoichiometry phosphopeptides in complex peptide mixtures and present a way to interpret the sizable dataset without matching the peptide identifications to a phospho-database. Because all peptides and not only the phosphorylated fraction of the proteome is measured in this approach, instruments with high-speed acquisition capabilities and adequate resolution for accurate reporter quantitation are indispensable. Still, because of the minimal technical variation that is introduced throughout the workflow (as for Wu et.al. (20)), implementation of extensive fractionation and purification steps such as protein gel-electrophoresis and 2DLC at the peptide level allows for more in-depth coverage of the (phospho) proteome. What makes this approach even more attractive, is that the iTRAQ multiplexing allows for a replicate measurement within one experiment, creating a new data analysis workflow that meets the stringent requirements of peptide quantitation. All three instrument panels were able to annotate a large set of known phosphoproteins. Extending the latter sample fractionation and using novel methodologies to avoid dilution of reporter ratios in MSMS will allow for the annotation of increasing numbers of phosphopeptide with increasingly low stoichometries in the future.
