Proteomic analysis of L-Methionine Sulfoximine (MSO)-treated Plasmodium falciparum by LC-MS/MS

ABSTRACT: LC-MS/MS of in-solution trypsin digested parasite protein extracts was carried out to examine the proteome of MSO-treated Pf parasites. Proteins were extracted from the untreated and MSO-treated parasite pellets of two independent experiments (Exp1: T7_R Vs T8; Exp2: T3_R Vs T4_R). For each experiment, two different sets of untreated and MSO-treated cultures synchronized for ring stages and early trophozoites were used. MSO treatment was carried out at 50 M concentration for 12 h. A total number of 149 proteins associated with various metabolic and cellular functions, cytoadherence and host invasion, Hb degradation, etc., were downregulated in MSO-treated parasites. This also included important asparagine-rich proteins such as tRNA ligases, components of RNA processing and protein degradation pathways, lipocalin associated with hemozoin formation and antimalarial drug sensitivity, heat shock protein 110c essential for stabilizing the asparagine repeat-rich parasite proteins etc. Only ten proteins were found to be upregulated in MSO-treated Pf3D7 parasites. For downregulated proteins, proteins identified in both the untreated controls of two independent experiments and either undetectable or significantly downregulated (>1.5 fold) in MSO-treated Pf3D7 parasites were considered. For upregulated proteins, proteins significantly upregulated (>1.5 fold) in both the MSO-treated parasites of two independent experiments and/or undetectable in the untreated controls but detectable in the MSO-treated parasites were considered.

Transcript level responses of Plasmodium falciparum to antimycin A

Project description:Abstract: The mitochondrial electron transport chain is essential to Plasmodium and is the target of the antimalarial drug atovaquone. The mitochondrial genomes of Plasmodium sp. are the most reduced known, and the majority of mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nucleus and imported into the mitochondrion post-translationally. Many organisms have signalling pathways between the mitochondria and the nucleus to regulate the expression of nuclear-encoded mitochondrially-targeted proteins, for example in response to mitochondrial dysfunction. We have studied the gene expression profiles of synchronous Plasmodium falciparum treated with an LD50 concentration of the complex III inhibitor antimycin A, to investigate whether such pathways exist in the parasite. There was a broad perturbation of gene expression. Some effects were attributable to a delay in the gene expression phase of drug-treated parasites. However, our data also indicated regulation of mitochondrial stress response genes and genes involved in pyrimidine biosynthesis. 3 biological replicates each for treated and untreated: control (1/2000 DMSO) and LD50 antimycin A, respectively. Normalised microarray data for antimycin A-treated parasites were contrasted against untreated (DMSO) controls.

Hard-wiring in the Plasmodium falciparum transcriptome II

Project description:To help malaria parasites survive unpredictable host immune responses, it is known that genes for surface proteins express stochastically in Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we demonstrate that gene expression for intracellular metabolic functions may be preordained and insensitive to specific metabolic perturbations. In a tightly-controlled, large microarray study involving over 100 hybridizations to isogenic drug-sensitive and drug-resistant parasites, the lethal antifolate WR99210 failed to over-produce RNA for the biochemically and genetically proven target dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS). Beyond the target, this transcriptional obstinacy carried over to the rest of the parasite genome, including genes for target pathways of folate and pyrimidine metabolism. Even 12 hours after commitment to death, the transcriptome remained faithful to evolutionarily entrained paths. A system-wide transcriptional disregard for metabolic perturbations in malaria parasites may contribute to selective vulnerabilities of the parasite to lethal antimetabolites. While large protective metabolic responses were not detected, DNA microarrays helped capture small, but reproducible drug-dependent perturbations within hours of drug exposure. In addition, in Plasmodium cells that had adapted to long-term drug exposure, DNA microarrays revealed new, large genome-wide transcriptional adjustments in the hard-wired transcriptional program itself. Keywords: Plasmodium falciparum treated with pyrimethamine RNA from pyrimethamine-treated parasite vs RNA from untreated control, Pyr-sensitive TM4/8.2 parasite strain, pyrimethamine concentration at IC50 and treated for 2 h, 4 h, and 8 h, microarray data were obtained from at least four hybridizations using RNA from at least two independent parasite cultures

Morphological and molecular descriptors of the developmental cycle of Babesia divergens parasites in human erythrocytes

Project description:Human babesiosis, especially caused by the cattle derived Babesia divergens parasite, is on the increase, resulting in renewed attentiveness to this potentially life threatening emerging zoonotic disease. The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology and intra-erythrocytic development of these parasites are poorly understood. This impedes concerted efforts aimed at the discovery of novel anti-babesiacidal agents. By applying sensitive cell biological and molecular functional genomics tools, we describe the intra-erythrocytic development cycle of B. divergens parasites from immature, mono-nucleated ring forms to bi-nucleated paired piriforms and ultimately multi-nucleated tetrads that characterizes zoonotic Babesia spp. This is further correlated for the first time to nuclear content increases during intra-erythrocytic development progression, providing insight into the part of the life cycle that occurs during human infection. High-content temporal evaluation elucidated the contribution of the different stages to life cycle progression. Moreover, molecular descriptors indicate that B. divergens parasites employ physiological adaptation to in vitro cultivation. Additionally, differential expression is observed as the parasite equilibrates its developmental stages during its life cycle. Together, this information provides the first temporal evaluation of the functional transcriptome of B. divergens parasites; information that could be useful in identifying biological processes essential to parasite survival for future anti-babesiacidal discoveries. Two-condition experiment, Untreated vs.Treated B. divergens parasites, cultured in human erythrocytes. Treatment with a piperidinyl-benzimidizalone analogue. Biological replicates: 3 untreated (control) replicates, 3 treated replicates. The 6-sample dataset represents untreated(control) vs pooled_reference samples at various timepoints.

Transcript-level responses of Plasmodium falciparum to thiostrepton

Project description:Abstract: The antimalarial activity of the antibiotic thiostrepton has long been attributed to inhibition of apicoplast protein synthesis through binding of apicoplast ribosomal RNA. However, the kinetics of parasite death upon thiostrepton treatment differ from those seen for other inhibitors of apicoplast housekeeping functions. We have analysed global changes in gene expression of the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, in an attempt to shed light on the responses of the parasite to this drug. Our results indicate a delay in gene expression profiles of thiostrepton-treated parasites. A small number of genes appear to be regulated outside of this trend; our data suggest a response from genes encoding components of the mitochondrial translational machinery, while little response is seen from genes encoding apicoplast-targeted proteins. Our findings are consistent with an effect of thiostrepton on mitochondrial protein synthesis, and thus warrant a re-evaluation of the target of thiostrepton in Plasmodium. They also provide some suggestion of mitochondrion – nucleus signalling in the parasite. 3 biological replicates each for treated and untreated: control (1/2000 DMSO) and LD70 thiostrepton, respectively

Food vacuole proteome of P. berghei heme pathway ferrochelatase knockout parasite by LC-MS/MS

Project description:LC-MS/MS of in-solution trypsin digested FV protein extracts was carried out for the FVs isolated from PbWT and PbFCKO parasites. The FV preparations had signature FV proteins such as plasmepsin IV, berghepain, aminopeptidases, subunits of vacuolar-type H+ATPase (V-type H ATPase), together with parasitophorous vacuolar (PV) proteins including exported protein 1 (Exp1), Exp2, early transcribed membrane protein, PV1, PV5 (lipocalin) etc., and Rab GTPases associated with cytostome-FV trafficking. A total number of 251 and 201 proteins could be identified for WT (P1) and FCKO (P2) FVs, respectively, and 175 proteins were common between them suggesting an overall consistency in the preparations. The results obtained have suggested that the FV proteome in FCKO parasites is compromised. None of the subunits of V-type H+ATPase - a proton pump maintaining the acidic pH of FV could be detected in FCKO FVs indicating the lower abundance of these proteins. In addition, berghepain-2 - a cysteine protease involved in Hb degradation could not be detected in FCKO FVs.
