Mechanism of phage sensing and abortion by toxin-antitoxin-chaperone systems (HDX-MS)

ABSTRACT: Toxin-antitoxins (TAs) are prokaryotic two-gene systems comprised of a toxin neutralised by an antitoxin. Toxin-antitoxin-chaperone (TAC) systems additionally include a SecB-like chaperone that stabilises the antitoxin by recognising its chaperone addiction (ChAD) element. TACs have been shown to mediate antiphage defence, but the mechanisms of viral sensing and restriction are unexplored. Here we tried to find the epitope between SecB and gpV with HDX-MS.

Expression profile for overproduction of ArT

Project description:Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are ubiquitous throughout bacterial and archaeal genomes. TA systems consist of a stable toxin that inhibits growth and a labile antitoxin that prevents toxicity of the toxin. Here we made an artificial TA system (arT/arA) and performed a DNA microarray study for overproduction of the toxin. arT was overexpressed in Escherichia coli BW25113 and compared to the empty vector.

HDX-MS of Activators and Inhibitors of PI3Kalpha

Project description:Harnessing the potential beneficial effects of kinase signalling through the generation of direct kinase activators remains an underexplored area of drug development. This also applies to the PI 3-kinase (PI3K) signalling pathway which has been extensively targeted by inhibitors for conditions with PI3K overactivation, such as cancer and immune dysregulation1-3. Here we report on the discovery of UCL-TRO-1938 (further referred to as 1938), a small molecule activator of the PI3Kα isoform, a critical effector of growth factor signalling. 1938 allosterically activates PI3Kα through a unique mechanism, by enhancing multiple steps of the PI3Kα catalytic cycle, and causes both local and global conformational changes in the PI3Kα structure. This compound is selective for PI3Ka over other PI3K isoforms and multiple protein and lipid kinases. It transiently activates PI3K signalling in all rodent and human cells tested, resulting in cellular responses such as proliferation and neurite outgrowth. In rodent models, acute treatment with 1938 provides cardioprotection from ischaemia reperfusion injury and, upon local administration, enhances nerve regeneration following nerve crush. This study identifies a unique chemical tool to directly probe PI3Kα signalling and a novel approach to modulate PI3K activity, widening the therapeutic potential of targeting these enzymes, through short-term activation for tissue protection and regeneration. Our findings illustrate the potential of activating kinases for therapeutic benefit, a currently largely untapped area of drug development.

Anti-viral defense by an ADP-ribosyltransferase that targets mRNA to block translation (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Host-pathogen conflicts are crucibles of molecular innovation. Selection for immunity to pathogens has driven the evolution of sophisticated immunity mechanisms throughout biology, including in bacteria that must evade their viral predators known as bacteriophages. Here, we characterize a toxin-antitoxin-chaperone system, CmdTAC, in Escherichia coli that provides robust defense against infection by T4 phage. During infection, newly synthesized capsid protein triggers dissociation of the chaperone CmdC from the CmdTAC complex, leading to destabilization and degradation of the antitoxin CmdA, with consequent liberation of the toxin CmdT, an ADP-ribosyltransferase. Strikingly, CmdT does not target a protein, DNA, or structured RNA, the known targets of other ADP-ribosyltransferases. Instead, CmdT modifies the N6 position of adenine in GA dinucleotides within single-stranded RNAs to robustly block mRNA translation and viral replication. Our work reveals both a new mechanism of anti-phage defense and a new class of ADP-ribosyltransferases that targets mRNA.

Expression profile for higA mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14

Project description:The previously uncharacterized proteins HigB (unannotated) and HigA (PA4674) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 were found to form a type II TA system in which antitoxin HigA masks the RNase activity of toxin HigB through direct binding. To determine the physiological role of HigB/HigA in P. aeruginosa, a whole-transcriptome experiment was performed for the higA antitoxin deletion mutant of the PA14 strain compared to the wild-type PA14 strain. The rationale was that for the strain that lacks the antitoxin, the effect of the toxin could be discerned due to enhanced activity of the toxin. Furthermore, toxin HigB reduces production of the virulence factors pyochelin, pyocyanin, swarming, and biofilm formation.

Growth control switch by a DNA damage-inducible toxin-antitoxin system in Caulobacter

Project description:Bacterial toxin-antitoxin systems (TASs) are thought to respond to various stresses, often inducing growth-arrested (persistent) sub-populations of cells whose housekeeping functions are inhibited. However, it is not always clear whether specific targets of orthologous RNAse toxins are responsible for their phenotypic effect, which has made it difficult to accurately place the multitude of TASs within cellular and adaptive regulatory networks. Here we show that the TAS HigBA can promote and inhibit bacterial growth dependent on the dosage of HigB, a toxin regulated by the DNA damage (SOS) repressor LexA in addition to its antitoxin HigA, and the target selectivity of HigBâs mRNA cleavage activity. HigB reduced the expression of an efflux pump that is toxic to a polarity control mutant, cripples the growth of cells lacking LexA and targets the cell cycle circuitry. Thus, TASs can have outcome switching activity in bacterial adaptive (stress) and systemic (cell cycle) networks. DNA binding of the antitoxin HigA and the SOS regulator LexA was analysed by chromatin immunoprecipitation-deep sequencing, and found to overlap at only one locus, the HigBA TA system promoter
