Identification and PTPs in Anncaliia algerae

ABSTRACT: This project is focused on isolation and characterization of polar tube proteins (PTPs) of Anncaliia algerae using diverse bioinformatic and experimental methodologies - from mass spectrometry to heterologous expression to antibody production and immunolocalization. A novel protein was isolated from A. algerae polar tube extracts named PTP6 which could participates in recognition of host cell receptors as well.Moreover the obtained data on immunolabeling of the polar tubes in the process of extrusion, strongly support one of three hypothetical mechanisms for spore firing, namely the “everting-like-a-glove finger” model. The practical result of this fundamental research is the elaboration of the novel workflow that allows identification and isolation of PTPs in a given microsporidian species wich unites different approaches, such as homology search, sporal protein extractions by thiol-reducing agents, antibody-based approaches, as well as a protocol for purification of extruded polar tubes combined with mass spectrometry to identify new polar tube components.

Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites able to infect a wide range of hosts from invertebrates to vertebrates. The success of their invasion process is based on an original organelle, the polar tube, which is suddenly extruded from the spore to inoculate the sporoplasm into the host cytoplasm. The polar tube is mainly composed of proteins named polar tube proteins (PTPs). A comparative analysis allowed us to identify genes coding for 5 PTPs (PTP1 to PTP5) in the genome of the microsp ...[more]

Project description:Spermatophyte pollen tubes and root hairs have been used as single-cell-type model systems toward understanding the molecular processes underlying polar growth of plant cells. Horsetail (Equisetum arvense L.) is a perennial herb species in Equisetopsida, which creates separately growing spring and summer stems in its life cycle. The mature chlorophyllous spores produced from spring stems can germinate without dormancy. Here we report the cellular features and protein expression patterns in five stages of horsetail spore germination (mature spores, rehydrated spores, double-celled spores, germinated spores, and spores with protonemal cells). Using 2-DE combined with mass spectrometry, 80 proteins were found to be differentially expressed upon spore germination. Among them, proteins involved in photosynthesis, protein turnover, and energy supply were over-represented. Thirteen proteins appeared as isoforms on the gels, indicating the potential importance of post-translational modification. In addition, the dynamic changes of ascorbate peroxidase, peroxiredoxin, and dehydroascorbate reductase implied that reactive oxygen species homeostasis is critical in regulating cell division and tip-growth. The time course of germination and diverse expression patterns of proteins in photosynthesis, energy supply, lipid and amino acid metabolism indicated that heterotrophic and autotrophic metabolism were necessary in light-dependent germination of the spores. Twenty-six proteins were involved in protein synthesis, folding, and degradation, indicating that protein turnover is vital to spore germination and rhizoid tip-growth. Furthermore, the altered abundance of small G protein Ran1, 14-3-3 protein, actin, and Caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase revealed that signaling transduction, vesicle trafficking, cytoskeleton dynamics, and cell wall modulation were critical to cell division and polar growth. These findings provide up-to-date evidences for understanding fern spore asymmetric division and rhizoid polar growth.
