Cardiac Atrial Compartmentalisation Proteomics: A Modified Density Gradient Method to Analyse Endo-lysosomal Proteins

ABSTRACT: Evidence that lysosomes are important in cardiac physiology and pathology is now emerging. We describe a label-free method suitable for small cardiac tissue biopsies based on a density-separated fractionation protocol, which allows us to study endo-lysosomal (EL) proteins in guinea pig atria. The three most relevant density gradient fractions obtained were analysed using Western Blot, enzyme activity assay and MS/MS peptide analysis (adapted discontinuous Percoll, and sucrose differential density gradient). These fractions comprise whole tissue lysate; sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), mitochondrial proteins (Mito) (1.3 g/mL); and ‘pure’ EL with negligible contamination from SR or Mito (1.04 g/mL). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, Reactome, Panther and Gene Ontology pathway analysis showed good coverage of RAB proteins, lysosomal cathepsins (including cardiac-specific cathepsin D) in the purified EL fraction. The most significant EL proteins recovered included catalytic activity proteins. We thus present a comprehensive protocol and dataset of guinea-pig atrial EL focussed organelle proteomics

The importance of lysosomes in cardiac physiology and pathology is well established, and evidence for roles in calcium signaling is emerging. We describe a label-free proteomics method suitable for small cardiac tissue biopsies based on density-separated fractionation, which allows study of endolysosomal (EL) proteins. Density gradient fractions corresponding to tissue lysate; sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), mitochondria (Mito) (1.3 g/mL); and EL with negligible contamination from SR or Mito (1.04 ...[more]

Project description:Integrated breeding strategies are used to increase both the yield potential and stability of crops. Most of these approaches have a direct genetic basis. The utility of epigenetics in breeding to improve complex traits such as yield and stress tolerance is not clear. A better understanding of the status of the epigenome and its contribution to the agronomic performance would help in developing strategies to incorporate the epigenetic component of complex traits in breeding,Starting from isogenic canola lines, epilines were generated by selecting recursively during three generations for lines with a higher energy use efficiency and drought tolerance. These epilines were more energy use efficient, drought tolerant, high nitrogen use efficient, and higher yielding under suboptimal conditions. Moreover, these characteristics were transgenerational inheritable. Transcriptome comparison with a line selected for energy use efficiency only revealed common differentially expressed genes related to the onset of signaling events regulating stress tolerance. Genes related to salt, osmotic, abscisic acid and drought were specifically differentially expressed in the drought tolerant epilines. The status of the epigenome, scored as differential trimethylation of lysine 4 of histone 3, supports the energy use efficient and drought tolerant phenotype by facilitating transcription of the genes that are found to be differentially expressed.From these results it can be concluded that the epigenome can be shaped by selection to increase yield and stress tolerance. This acquired knowledge will support further development of strategies to incorporate epigenetics in breeding. SRA study accession: SRP052946, Bioproject: PRJNA273932. Two canola (Brassica napus L. spp. oleifera (Metzg) Sinsk. f. biennis) epilines with low respiration and high NAD(P)H content were selected. Grinded leaf material from 26 day-old control and both epilines was collected in triplicate and served as input for deep sequencing on Illumina GAIIx.

Project description:Lysosomes represent a central degradative compartment of eukaryotes, yet little is known about biogenesis and function of this organelle in parasitic protists. Whereas the mannose-6 phosphate (M6P)-dependent system is dominant for lysosomal targeting in metazoans, oligosaccharide independent sorting was reported in other eukaryotes. In this study, we investigated the phagolysosomal proteome of the human parasite Trichomonas vaginalis, protein targeting and involvement of lysosomes in hydrolase secretion. The organelles were purified using conventional Percoll and OptiPrep density gradient centrifugation, and a novel purification protocol based on phagocytosis of lactoferrin-covered magnetic nanoparticles. The analysis resulted in the lysosomal proteome of 462 proteins, which were sorted into 21 functional classes. Hydrolases represent the largest functional class and include proteases, lipases, phosphatases, glycosidases, and other hydrolases. Identification of a large set of proteins involved in vesicular trafficking (80) and turnover of actin cytoskeleton rearrangement (29) indicate high dynamics of phagolysosomal compartment. Several lysosomal proteins including the cysteine protease TvCP2 were previously shown to be secreted. Our experiment showed that secretion of TvCP2 was strongly inhibited by chloroquine that increased intralysosomal pH and thus indicated TvCP2 secretion through lysosomes rather than the classical secretory pathway. Unexpectedly, we identified in the phagolysosomal proteome divergent homologs of M6P receptor TvMPR, although T. vaginalis lacks enzymes for M6P formation. To test whether oligosaccharides are involved in lysosomal targeting, we selected the lysosome-resident cysteine protease CLCP that possesses two glycosylation sites. Mutation of any of the sites redirected CLCP to the secretory pathway. Similarly, introduction of glycosylation sites to secreted β-amylase redirected this protein to lysosomes. Thus, unlike other parasitic protists, T. vaginalis seems to utilize glycosylation as recognition marker for lysosomal hydrolases. Whether TvMPR or other possible receptors are involved in this process and what is the precise structure of the lysosomal recognition marker need to be clarified in future studies.
