A comprehensive set of ER PDI family members supports the biogenesis of pro-inflammatory interleukin 12 family cytokines

ABSTRACT: Cytokines of the interleukin 12 (IL-12) family are assembled combinatorially from shared alpha and beta subunits. A common theme is that human IL-12 family alpha subunits remain incompletely structured in isolation until they pair with a designate beta subunit. Accordingly, chaperones need to support and control specific assembly processes. Here, we site-specifically introduce photo-crosslinking amino acids into the IL-12 and IL-23 alpha subunits (IL-12alpha and IL-23alpha). This allows to stabilize transient chaperone:client complexes for mass spectrometry and reveals a large set of ER chaperones to interact with IL-12alpha and IL-23alpha. Among those, we focus on protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family members and reveal IL-12 family subunits to be clients of several ill-characterized PDIs. We find that different PDIs show selectivity for different cysteines in IL-12alpha and IL-23alpha. Despite this, PDI binding generally stabilizes unassembled IL-12alpha and IL-23alpha against degradation. In contrast, alpha:beta assembly appears robust and only multiple simultaneous PDI depletions reduce IL-12 secretion. Our comprehensive analysis of the IL-12/IL-23 chaperone machinery reveals a hitherto uncharacterized role for several PDIs in this process. This extends our understanding of how cells accomplish the task of specific protein assembly reactions for signaling processes. Furthermore, our findings show that cytokine secretion can be modulated by targeting specific ER chaperones.

Project description:Pharmacological activation of the activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) arm of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) has proven useful for ameliorating proteostasis deficiencies in a variety of etiologically diverse diseases. Previous high-throughput screening efforts identified the small molecule AA147 as a potent and selective ATF6 activating compound that operates through a mechanism involving metabolic activation of its 2-amino- p -cresol substructure affording a quinone methide, which then covalently modifies a subset of ER protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs). Intriguingly, another compound identified in this screen, AA132, also contains a 2-amino- p -cresol moiety; however, this compound showed less transcriptional selectivity, instead globally activating all three arms of the UPR. Here, we show that AA132 activates global UPR signaling through a mechanism analogous to that of AA147, involving metabolic activation and covalent PDI modification. Chemoproteomic-enabled analyses show that AA132 covalently modifies PDIs to a greater extent than AA147. Paradoxically, activated AA132 reacts slower with PDIs, indicating it is less reactive than activated AA147. This suggests that the higher labeling of PDIs observed with activated AA132 can be attributed to its lower reactivity, which allows this activated compound to persist longer in the cellular environment prior to quenching by endogenous nucleophiles. Collectively, these results suggest that AA132 globally activates the UPR through increased engagement of ER PDIs. Consistent with this, reducing the cellular concentration of AA132 decreases PDI modifications and allows for selective ATF6 activation. Our results highlight the relationship between metabolically activatable-electrophile stability, ER proteome reactivity, and the transcriptional response observed with the enaminone chemotype of ER proteostasis regulators, enabling continued development of next-generation ATF6 activating compounds.
