Project description:Cells harbor two systems for fatty acid synthesis, one in the cytoplasm (catalyzed by fatty acid synthase, FASN) and one in the mitochondria (mtFAS). In contrast to FASN, mtFAS is poorly characterized, especially in higher eukaryotes, with the major product(s), metabolic roles, and cellular function(s) being essentially unknown. Here we show that hypomorphic mtFAS mutant mouse skeletal myoblast cell lines display a severe loss of electron transport chain (ETC) complexes and exhibit compensatory metabolic activities including reductive carboxylation. This effect on ETC complexes appears to be independent of protein lipoylation, the best characterized function of mtFAS, as mutants lacking lipoylation have an intact ETC. Finally, mtFAS impairment blocks the differentiation of skeletal myoblasts in vitro. Together, these data suggest that ETC activity in mammals is profoundly controlled by mtFAS function, thereby connecting anabolic fatty acid synthesis with the oxidation of carbon fuels.

Project description:Iron sulfur clusters (ISC) are essential cofactors that participate in electron transfer, environment sensing, and catalysis. Amongst the most ancient ISC containing proteins are the ferredoxin family of electron carriers. Humans have two ferredoxins, FDX1 and FDX2, localized to the mitochondria and important for ISC synthesis itself. We previously showed that hypoxia can bypass the requirement for some, but not all, components of the ISC biosynthetic pathway, but ferredoxins were not tested at that time. Here we report that FDX1 and its reductase FDXR, but not FDX2, are dispensable under ambient 1% O2 in cultured cells. We find that FDX1 is essential for production of the lipoic acid cofactor, which is synthesized by the ISC containing enzyme lipoyl synthase (LIAS). While hypoxia can rescue the growth phenotype of either FDX1 or LIAS knockout cells, lipoylation is not rescued, arguing against an alternative biosynthetic route or salvage pathway for lipoate in hypoxia. Our work identifies a role for FDX1/LIAS in lipoate synthesis and surprisingly reveals dispensability of lipoic acid altogether under low oxygen tensions in cell culture.

Project description:Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) is the most common monogenic mitochondrial disease. FA is caused by a depletion of the mitochondrial protein frataxin (FXN), an iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis factor. To better understand the cellular consequences of FA, we performed quantitative proteome profiling of human cells depleted for FXN. Nearly every known Fe-S cluster-containing protein was depleted in the absence of FXN, indicating that as a rule, cluster binding confers stability to Fe-S proteins. Proteomic and genetic interaction mapping identified impaired mitochondrial translation downstream of FXN loss, and specifically highlighted the methyltransferase-like protein METTL17 as a candidate effector. Using comparative sequence analysis, mutagenesis, biochemistry and cryogenic electron microscopy we show that METTL17 binds to the mitoribosomal small subunit during late assembly and harbors a previously unrecognized [Fe4S4]2+ cluster required for its stability on the mitoribosome. Notably, METTL17 overexpression rescued the mitochondrial translation and bioenergetic defects, but not the cellular growth, of FXN depleted cells. Our data suggest that METTL17 serves as an Fe-S cluster checkpoint: promoting the translation and assembly of Fe-S cluster rich OXPHOS proteins only when Fe-S cluster levels are replete.

Project description:The PI3K/AKT signaling cascade is one of the most commonly dysregulated pathways in cancer, with over 50% of tumors showing aberrant AKT hyperactivation. Although potent small molecule AKT inhibitors have entered clinical trials, robust and durable therapeutic responses have not been observed. As an alternative strategy to target AKT, we report the development of INY-03-041, a pan-AKT degrader consisting of GDC-0068, an AKT inhibitor, conjugated to lenalidomide, a recruiter of the E3 ubiquitin ligase, Cereblon (CRBN). INY-03-041 induced potent degradation of all three AKT isoforms and displayed enhanced anti-proliferative effects relative to GDC-0068. Notably, INY-03-041 promoted sustained AKT degradation and inhibition of downstream signaling effects for up to 96 hours, even after compound washout. Overall, our findings suggest that AKT degradation may provide prolonged pharmacological effects compared to inhibition, and highlight the potential advantages of AKT-targeted degradation.

Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe are the most commonly studied yeast model systems, yet comparisons of global proteome remodeling between these yeast species are scarce. Here, we profile the proteomes of S. cerevisiae and S. pombe cultured with either glucose or pyruvate as the sole carbon source to define common and distinctive alterations in the protein landscape across species. In addition, we developed an updated streamlined-tandem mass tag (SL-TMT) strategy that substitutes chemical-based precipitation with more versatile bead-based protein aggregation method (SP3) prior to enzymatic digestion and TMT labeling. Our new workflow, SL-SP3-TMT, allowed for near-complete proteome profiles in a single experiment for each species. The data revealed expected alterations in protein abundance, highlighted complete canonical biochemical pathways, and provided insight into previously uncharacterized proteins. The techniques used herein, namely SL-SP3-TMT, can be applied to virtually any experiment aiming to study remodeling of the proteome using a high-throughput, comprehensive, yet streamlined mass spectrometry-based strategy.

Project description:The mitochondrial membrane potential directly powers many critical functions of mitochondria, including ATP production, mitochondrial protein import, and metabolite transport. Its loss is a cardinal feature of aging and mitochondrial diseases, and cells closely monitor membrane potential as an indicator of mitochondrial health. Given its central importance, it is logical that cells would modulate mitochondrial membrane potential in response to demand and environmental cues, but there has been little exploration of this question. We report that loss of the Sit4 protein phosphatase in yeast increases mitochondrial membrane potential mostly by inducing the expression of the electron transport chain but also activates the phosphate starvation response. Indeed, a similarly elevated mitochondrial membrane potential is also elicited by either phosphate starvation or by abrogation of the Pho85-dependent phosphate sensing pathway. This enhanced membrane potential is primarily driven by an unexpected activity of the ADP/ATP carrier. We also demonstrate that this connection between phosphate limitation and enhancement of the mitochondrial membrane potential is evolutionarily conserved as it also is observed in primary and immortalized mammalian cells as well as in Drosophila. These data suggest that the mitochondrial membrane potential is subject to environmental stimuli and intracellular signaling regulation and raise the possibility for therapeutic enhancement even under conditions of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Project description:Deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) counteract ubiquitylation to control the stability or activity of their substrates. Identifying DUB substrates is challenging and genetic approaches can be thwarted by redundant action of DUBs. Here, we circumvented redundancy by broadly inhibiting DUBs in Xenopus egg extract and used quantitative mass spectrometry to identify over thirty proteins that undergo proteasomal degradation, the majority of which have not been reported as DUB substrates. These results were confirmed with recombinant human proteins, demonstrating the conservation of their DUB-dependent stability. We used these substrates to profile the ability of a panel of DUBs to rescue degradation. This approach revealed that USP7, uniquely among the 14 DUBs tested, has a broad ability to rescue degradation. USP21, which is used widely to nonspecifically deubiquitylate proteins in vitro, was unable to rescue degradation, highlighting the importance of profiling enzyme activity in a physiological system. Together, we identify new DUB substrates and present a system to characterize physiological DUB specificity, overcoming the challenges posed by DUB redundancy.

Project description:The Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) is a mega-dalton ubiquitin ligase that initiates mitotic exit by targeting substrates for degradation. The APC/C is activated by Cdc20, which acts as a substrate receptor, and is inhibited by the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which delays mitotic exit when the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) is activated. We previously identified apcin, a small molecule ligand of Cdc20, as an inhibitor of APC/CCdc20. Surprisingly, we found that apcin paradoxically accelerates substrate degradation and promotes mitotic exit in cells with high SAC activity. Biochemical studies indicate that apcin cooperates with p31comet to relieve MCC-dependent inhibition of APC/C. Apcin’s behavior as an antagonist of Cdc20 can thus result in either net inhibition of APC/C, delaying mitotic exit when SAC activity is slow, or net activation of APC/C, promoting mitotic exit when SAC activity is high. Genetic experiments suggest that the dual behaviors of apcin arise from targeting a common binding site in Cdc20 that is required for both substrate ubiquitination as well as efficient APC/C inhibition by MCC. We therefore establish a new mechanism through which a small molecule, by targeting a single site on a dynamic protein interface, can lead to opposing biological effects depending on the regulatory context.

Project description:The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) functions in protein and lipid synthesis, calcium ion flux, and inter-organelle communication, all of which are driven by the ER proteome landscape. ER is remodeled in part through autophagy-dependent protein turnover involving membrane-embedded ER-phagy receptors1,2. A refined tubular ER network is formed in neurons within highly polarized dendrites and axons3,4. Autophagy-deficient neurons in vivo display axonal ER accumulation within synaptic ER boutons, associated with hyper-excitability,5 and the ER-phagy receptor FAM134B has been genetically linked with human sensory and autonomic neuropathy6,7. However, mechanisms and receptor selectivity underlying ER remodeling by autophagy in neurons is limited. Here, we employ genetic, proteomic and computational tools to create a quantitative landscape of ER proteome remodeling via selective autophagy during conversion of stem cells to induced neurons in vitro. Through analysis of single and combinatorial ER-phagy receptor mutants coupled with an allelic series computational framework, we delineate the extent to which each of five receptors contributes to both the magnitude of ER turnover by autophagy and the selectivity of clearance for individual ER proteins. We define specific subsets of reticulon-domain containing ER-tubule shaping proteins or luminal proteins as preferred clients for autophagic turnover via distinct receptors. Using spatial sensors and flux reporters, we demonstrate receptor-specific autophagic capture of ER in axons, which correlates with aberrant accumulation of ER in axonal structures in ER-phagy receptor or autophagy-deficient cells. This molecular inventory of ER proteome remodeling and versatile genetic toolkit provides a quantitative framework for understanding the contributions of individual ER-phagy receptors for reshaping this critical organelle during transitions in cell states.
