A repurposed, non-canonical cytochrome c, chaperones calcium binding by PilY1 for type IVa pili formation - Dataset 2/2

ABSTRACT: Type IVa pili (T4aP) are versatile bacterial cell surface structures that undergo extension/adhesion/retraction cycles powered by the cell envelope-spanning T4aP machine. In this machine, a complex composed of four minor pilins and PilY1 primes T4aP extension and is also present at the pilus tip mediating adhesion. Similar to many other bacteria, Myxococcus xanthus contains multiple minor pilins/PilY1 sets, the function of which remains unknown.Here, we report that minor pilins and PilY1 of cluster_1 (PilY1.1) form calcium-responsive priming and tip complexes contingent on a non-canonical cytochrome c (TfcP) with an unusual His/Cys heme ligation. We provide evidence that TfcP is unlikely to participate in electron transport and has been repurposed to promote calcium binding by PilY1.1 at low calcium concentrations, thereby stabilising PilY1.1 and enabling its function in a broader range of calcium concentrations. These results identify a novel function of cytochromes c and illustrate how incorporating an accessory factor expands the environmental range under which the T4aP system functions.

Project description:Obesity-induced inflammation causes metabolic dysfunction, but the mechanisms remain elusive. Here we show that the innate immune transcription factor interferon regulatory factor (IRF3) adversely affects glucose homeostasis through induction of the endogenous FAHFA hydrolase androgen induced gene 1 (AIG1) in adipocytes. Adipocyte-specific knockout of IRF3 protects mice against high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance, whereas overexpression of IRF3 or AIG1 in adipocytes promotes insulin resistance on a high-fat diet. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of AIG1 reversed obesity-induced insulin resistance and restored glucose homeostasis in the setting of adipocyte IRF3 overexpression. We, therefore, identify the adipocyte IRF3/AIG1 axis as a crucial link between obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance and suggest an approach for limiting the metabolic dysfunction accompanying obesity. ## File Key ### MS-ABPP The following raw files were acquired on an Eclipse instrument in triplicate with two concentrations of inhibitor in both brain and kidney. These variables are encoded in the file names. Associated analysis pipeline files from CIMAGE are provided for each raw file (same file name, with a .raw_output_rt_10_sn_2.5.to_excel extension). - brain_conc1.0_rep1.raw - brain_conc1.0_rep2.raw - brain_conc1.0_rep3.raw - brain_conc10.0_rep1.raw - brain_conc10.0_rep2.raw - brain_conc10.0_rep3.raw - kidney_conc1.0_rep1.raw - kidney_conc1.0_rep2.raw - kidney_conc1.0_rep3.raw - kidney_conc10.0_rep1.raw - kidney_conc10.0_rep2.raw - kidney_conc10.0_rep3.raw ### TMT Dose Response The following raw files were acquired on an Eclipse instrument instrument in both brain and white adipose tissues: - brain_dose_response.raw - wat_dose_response.raw The TMT channels were organized as follows: - DMSO channels: 1, 3, 5 - ABD-110 @ 0.001 μM: 7, 9, 11 - ABD-110 @ 0.01 μM: 2, 4, 6 - ABD-110 @ 0.1 μM: 13, 15, 17 - ABD-110 @ 1 μM: 8, 10, 12 - ABD-110 @ 10 μM: 14, 16, 18 Associated analysis pipeline files after IDFilter run are provided for each file (same file name, with a _filtered_matches suffix and an .idXML extension). ### PRM AIG1 In Vivo Target Engagement The A prefix before the replicate number refers to treatment with ABD-110, whereas the V prefix refers to vehicle treatment.

Project description:A critical step in regeneration is recreating the cellular identities and patterns of lost organs long after embryogenesis is complete. In plants, perpetual (indeterminate) organ growth occurs in apical stem cell niches, which have been shown to re-establish quickly when damaged or removed (1,2). Here we ask whether the machinery of perpetual organ growth, stem cell activity, is needed for the phase of regeneration that leads to replenishing lost cell identities and patterning, or, whether organ re-establishment enlists a wider group of pluripotent cells. We adapt a root tip regeneration system to Arabidopsis that permits us to assess the molecular and functional recovery of specific cell fates during organ regeneration. These results suggest a rapid restoration of missing cell fate and function in advance of the recovery of stem cell activity. Surprisingly, plants with mutations that fail to maintain stem cell activity were able to re-pattern their distal tip and re-specify lost cell fates. Thus, although stem cell activity is required to resume indeterminate growth (3), our results show it is not necessary for cell re-specification and patterning steps. This implies a regeneration mechanism that coordinates patterning of the whole organ, as in embryogenesis, but is initiated from different starting morphologies. 1. Feldman, L. J.

We adapted root tip excision techniques to Arabidopsis, enabling us to perform microarray profiling of regenerating root tissue. Excisions were performed at 4 days post-germination (dpg) at a distance of 130 um from the root tip, resulting in the complete excision of QC, all surrounding stem cells along with several tiers of daughter cells, and the root cap, including all of the columella and most of the lateral root cap. The tip section and then approximately 70 um of regenerating tissue was recut at different time points post cutting. We sampled regenerating stumps at 0hrs, 5 hrs, 13 hrs, 22 hrs, and 7 days after the excision for microarray analysis (Methods). We also sampled root sections immediately above the zone competent to regenerate at 270 um to approximately 340 um. Experiment Overall Design: 30 samples with 4 or 3 replicates for each condition representing a time course of regenerating root stumps and including controls for root tips (regeneration endpoint) at 4 dpg and 8 dpg and a wounded set of samples representing root tissue at 270-340 mm from the root tip for non-regeneration control
