Project description:Identifying specific protein interactors and spatially or temporally restricted local proteomes contributes significantly to our understanding of cellular processes in virtually all aspects of life. Obtaining such data is challenging, especially when the protein, cell type or event of interest is rare. In recent years, different proximity labeling techniques have been developed that have greatly improved our ability to tackle these questions. However, while effective in mammalian systems, use in plants has been extremely limited due to technical challenges. Recent technological improvements in the form of two highly active versions of the biotin ligase BirA* (TurboID and miniTurboID), prompted us to test this new system on two challenging but widely asked questions in plants: what are interaction partners of low-abundant proteins and what are organellar proteomes in rare and transient cell types. To address the first question, we used the transcription factor FAMA as a test case. FAMA is a master regulator of guard cell development and promotes terminal differentiation of the guard cell precursor by both activating and repressing hundreds of genes. FAMA-expressing young guard cells are rare and restricted to the epidermis of developing aerial tissues, which makes them a good model system to test TurboID applicability under material-limiting conditions. For this experiment, young Arabidopsis seedlings expressing FAMA-TurboID were treated with biotin to label FAMA complexes. Col-0 wild type and seedlings expressing nuclear TurboID under the FAMA promoter were used as controls for unspecific binding of proteins to the beads and stochastic labeling of nuclear proteins, respectively. Biotinylated proteins were isolated by affinity purification with streptavidin-coupled beads and identified by LC-MS/MS. Analysis of proteins labeled by FAMA-TurboID fusions revealed known interactors of this late stomatal lineage specific transcription factor, as well as novel proteins that could explain its dual function as an activator and repressor. Comparison with proteins obtained from classical co-immunoprecipitation approaches with FAMA showed that proximity labeling is superior for identification of meaningful interaction partners of low-abundant proteins.

FAMA is a master regulator of guard cell development and promotes terminal differentiation of the guard cell precursor by both activating and repressing hundreds of genes. FAMA-expressing young guard cells are rare and restricted to the epidermis of developing aerial tissues, which makes them a good model system to test TurboID applicability under material-limiting conditions. For this experiment, young Arabidopsis seedlings expressing nuclear TurboID under the FAMA or UBIQUITIN10 (UBQ10) promoter were treated with biotin to label nuclear proteomes. Col-0 wild type was used as controls for unspecific binding of proteins to the beads. Biotinylated proteins were isolated by affinity purification with streptavidin-coupled beads and identified by LC-MS/MS. By targeting TurboID to the nucleus we were able to purify nuclear proteins with relatively high specificity. Enrichment of FAMA-stage specific proteins, when nuclear TurboID was driven by the FAMA compared to the UBQ10 promoter, supports general applicability of TurboID for identification of subcellular proteomes.

Project description:Physical damage to cells leads to the release of immunomodulatory peptides in order to elicit wound defense responses in the surrounding tissue. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the intracellular PROPEP1 protein precursor is processed into the mature 2.5 kDa PEP1 before release. However, the maturation mechanism remained unknown. Here, we demonstrate that both at tissue level and upon highly precise single-cell damage by multiphoton laser wounding, the cysteine protease METACASPASE4 is instantly activated in a spatiotemporal Ca2+ dependent manner, and is necessary and sufficient for PEP1 maturation. Our results reveal a robust and most likely conserved mechanism that links the intracellular and calcium dependent activation of a specific cysteine protease with the maturation of damage induced wound defense signals. Peptide coverage was obtained for the PROPEP1-YFP-HA fusion protein used in this study and its lower molecular weight processed forms (derived from in vivo proteolysis). In gel digest of immunoprecipitated bands was subjected to mass spectrometry analysis, repeated twice on different mass spectrometers (Velos and Q-Exactive HF).

Project description:AtACINUS protein is involved in regulation of alternative transcription and splicing (AS). Previously we have identified O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation sites on AtACINUS using LWAC and IMAC enrichment (Xu et al., 2017). To identify more modification sites, we have created AtACINUS-YFP-TurboID/acinus-2pinin transgenic lines and pulled down AtACINUS using streptavidin beads to identify post-translational modifications on AtACINUS.

Project description:Transient protein-protein interactions (PPIs), such as those between posttranslational modifying enzymes and their substrates, play key roles in cellular regulation, but are difficult to identify. Here we demonstrate the application of enzyme-catalyzed proximity labeling (PL), using the engineered promiscuous biotin ligase TurboID, as a sensitive method for characterizing PPIs in signaling networks. We show that TurboID fused with the GSK3-like kinase BIN2 or a PP2A phosphatase biotinylate their known substrate, the BZR1 transcription factor, with high specifically and efficiency. We optimized the protocol of biotin labeling and affinity purification in transgenic Arabidopsis expressing a BIN2-TurboID fusion protein. Subsequent quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) analysis identified about three hundred proteins biotinylated by BIN2-TurboID more efficiently than the YFP-TurboID control. These include a significant subset of previously proven BIN2 interactors and a large number of new BIN2 interactors that uncover a broad BIN2 signaling network. Our study illustrates that PL-MS using TurboID is a powerful tool for mapping signaling networks in plants, and reveals broad roles of this GSK3-like kinase in cellular signaling and regulation.

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana is a glycophyte with a low salt tolerance, while Eutrema is a halophyte with a very high salt tolerance. To elucidate the transcriptional basis of this difference, we performed hydroponis culture experiments where we grew plants under control conditions (25 mM NaCl) or under salt stress (200 mM NaCl for both species, 500 mM for Eutrema). Salt concentration was increased for the stress treatments by increments of 50 mM per day (25 mM on the first day). Plants were grown at the final NaCl concentration for an additional week, when rosettes were harvested for RNA isolation.Expression patterns were compared between treatments and between species. In total, 15 samples were hybridized. They were derived from three independent biological experiments (replicate_1 to replicate_3). Controlds were grown at 25 mM NaCl, salt stressed plants at either 200 mM NaCl or 500 mM NaCl.

Project description:Stomata are pores in the epidermis of plants that can open and close and allow for gas exchange vital for photosynthesis and regulate transpiration. Stomatal development is driven by a set of conserved bHLH transcription factors (SPCH, MUTE, FAMA, and their heterodimerization partners ICE1, SCRM2), that initiate and promote progression of cell fates in the stomatal lineage. Due to the shared ancestry of SPCH, MUTE and FAMA (subgroup Ia) and ICE1 and SCRM2 (subgroup IIIb) their DNA binding specificity is similar and there is some functional redundancy. However, individual bHLHs also have unique functions. For example, SPCH is required for initiation of the stomatal lineage, while FAMA is responsible for terminal differentiation of the guard cell pair. In grasses, the stomatal complex comprises the guard cell pair, and two flanking subsidiary cells. Recruitment of the latter from neighboring cell filed during development requires expression of MUTE. Remarkably, while MUTE is absolutely required for the promotion of guard mother cell fate in maize and rice, this is not the case in Brachypodium. This suggests that another TF can at least partially substitute for MUTE in this function. While different expression profiles of the bHLH dimers within the stomatal lineage may partially responsible for distinct functions of each pair, it is likely that each pair forms different transcriptional complexes and that interaction with other transcriptional regulators affects the dimer’s binding DNA binding and gene regulation properties. Given the differences in bHLH function between dicots and grasses and even within the grass family, we were interested in elucidating the protein interaction networks of the stomatal lineage regulators in Brachypodium. To this end, we performed co-immunoprecipitation coupled to LC-MS/MS of BdSPCH2-YFP, YFP-BdMUTE, YFP-BdFAMA, YFP-ICE1 and YFP-SCRM2 from the developmental zone of young B. distachyon leaves using GFP-Trap beads. All YFP-fusion proteins were expressed under the endogenous promoter in the Bd21-3 background. The only exception was BdICE1, which was expressed under the ZmUBI promoter, but was nevertheless mostly restricted to the stomatal lineage. As control lines we use the Bd21-3 wild type and a line expressing 3x YFPnls (nuclear YFP) under the MUTE promoter. Comparison of proteins enriched with the bHLH fusion proteins vs. the controls revealed overlapping and distinct putative interactors, which is in agreement with the assumption that these transcription factors have both shared and unique functions. Notably, in addition to the presumed hetero-dimerization partners, we found a number of other bHLH transcription factors that were identified with one or more of the bait proteins. This suggests the presence of a larger bHLH network acting in the stomatal lineage.

Project description:The long term objective is to create an encyclopedia of the expression levels of all genes in multiple components of the developing kidney. The central thesis is straightforward. The combination of fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS) plus microarray analysis offers a powerful, efficient and effective method for the creation of a global gene expression atlas of the developing kidney. Microarrays with essentially complete genome coverage can be used to quantitate expression levels of every gene in FACS isolated components of the developing kidney. The ensuing rapid read-out provides an expression atlas that is more sensitive, more economical and more complete than would be possible by in situ hybridizations alone. YFP & GFP transgenic lines have been used to isolate several cell types including the metanephric mesenchyme, Juxtaglomerular Complex cells or renal cortex from the kidneys of either E11.5 embryos or adult mice. The various cell types were isolated from the kidney using microdissection and single-cell isolation techniques. RNA was isolated from cells and the gene expression profiles were determined by microarrays.

Project description:This study uses microarray analyses to examine gene expression profiles for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) induced by exposure in vitro to bovine lung surfactant preparations that vary in apoprotein content: (i) whole lung surfactant (WLS) containing the complete mix of endogenous lipids and surfactant proteins (SP)-A, -B, -C, and -D; (ii) extracted lung surfactant (CLSE) containing lipids plus SP-B and -C; (iii) column-purified surfactant lipids (PPL) containing no apoproteins, and (iv) purified human SP-A. Exposure to WLS evoked a multitude of transcriptional responses in Mtb, with 52 genes up-regulated and 23 genes down-regulated at 30 min exposure, plus 146 genes up-regulated and 27 genes down-regulated at 2 h. Notably, WLS rapidly induced several membrane-associated lipases that presumptively act on surfactant lipids as substrates, and a large number of genes involved in the synthesis of phthiocerol dimycocerosate (PDIM), a cell wall component known to be important in macrophage interactions and Mtb virulence. Exposure of Mtb to CLSE, PPL, or purified SP-A caused a substantially weaker transcriptional response (⤠20 genes were induced) suggesting that interactions among multiple lipid-protein components of WLS may contribute to its effects on Mtb transcription. Whole lung surfactant (WLS) was obtained by centrifugation of lavage fluid (0.15M NaCl) from the intact lungs of freshly killed calves (ONY, Inc, Amherst, NY). Centrifugation was done at 12,000 x g at room temperature to pellet the active large aggregate surfactant fraction. CLSE was prepared by extraction of WLS into chloroform-methanol by the method of Bligh and Dyer (1959), as described in our prior work (Notter et al. 2002). CLSE is conceptually identical to the substance of the clinical surfactant Infasurf®. The composition of CLSE by weight was approximately 94% phospholipid, 4.5% cholesterol, and 1.5% protein (a mixture of SP-B and SP-C) as defined previously (Notter et al. 2002). Mixed lung surfactant phospholipids (PPL) were isolated from CLSE by column chromatography with an elution solvent of 1:1 (v/v) chloroform-methanol plus 5% 0.1 N HCl. Two passes through a Sephadex LH-20 column (Pharmacia-LKB Biotechnology, Piscataway, NJ) separated phospholipids away from hydrophobic surfactant apoproteins and neutral lipids. Acid remaining in PPL fractions was removed by a second chloroform-methanol extraction. Final PPL had a protein content below the limits of detection of both the Folin-phenol assay of Lowry et al. (1951) and the amido black assay of Kaplin and Pedersen (1989) modified by the addition of 15% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to allow accurate quantitation in the presence of lipid. Human SP-A was a gift from Dr. J. R. Wright at Duke University, and was isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage from patients with alveolar proteinosis as described previously (Wright et al. 1987). For exposure studies with Mtb, amounts of WLS, CLSE, and PPL used per experiment were 3.3 mg in a total volume of 4 ml. In preliminary studies, this concentration was shown to induce a transcriptional response in Mtb without affecting viability after a 2 h treatment as determined by serial dilutions compared to untreated Mtb. SP-A was studied at a level of 0.165 mg based on its putative concentration of approximately 5% in endogenous surfactant. To determine the effects of lung surfactant on the transcriptional response of Mtb, preparations of WLS, CLSE, or PPL (in 650 µl PBS) were initially coated onto the bottom surface of a 25 cm2 cell culture flask for 30 min at 37oC to mimic a surfactant layer. A minimum of two independent biological replicates were studied for each surfactant preparation. Purified human SP-A was also examined for its effects on Mtb transcription, and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) was used as a âno treatmentâ control. In experiments with SP-A (in 650 µl PBS), the pure apoprotein was either pre-coated on the flask as done with the surfactant preparations, or was directly added and incubated with Mtb during study. Mtb was added to the flask in 3.35 ml of DMEM (supplemented with 2% FCS and 5 mM HEPES) and exposed to coated surfactant/SP-A or PBS control for 30 min or 2h at 37oC, followed by RNA isolation as detailed by Rohde et al. (2008). GTC lysis/stabilization buffer was added, and pelleted Mtb were washed and then digested with lysozyme. TRIzol (Invitrogen) was added, and organisms were disrupted using glass beads in a Mini-Bead Beater (BioSpec Products, Inc. Bartlesville, OK). After extraction of Mtb lysates with chloroform, ethanol was added to the aqueous phase before loading samples onto RNeasy mini columns (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Subsequent steps were then performed according to the manufacturerâs instructions. Following elution with RNase-free water, the RNA samples were treated with DNase (Turbo DNAfree, Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA), and stored at -70oC until analysis. The MessageAmpTMII-Bacteria system (Applied Biosystems) was used to amplify mycobacterial RNA for all samples [16]. Total RNA was reverse transcribed to yield double-stranded amino-allyl modified aRNA, which was labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 and Alexa Fluor 647 (Invitrogen). Excess reactive dyes were removed with a Mega Clear purification kit (Applied Biosystems). Next, Alexa-labeled aRNA from paired samples was dried using a Speedvac, and re-suspended in hybridization buffer (5x SSC, 25% formamide, 0.15% SDS, and 25 μg salmon sperm DNA). The mixed samples were denatured by being heated to 95oC for and then cooled to 50oC prior to loading them onto microarrays. The arrays were hybridized for approximately 15 h at 45oC, washed and then dried by centrifugation. Fluorescence intensity data from each array were collected with a GenePix 4000B scanner (Axon Instruments, Union City, CA) using GenePixPro3.0 software (Axon Instruments). Image analysis, i.e. spot identification, background measurements, quality assessment and flagging were conducted with Imagene software (Version 6.0, BioDiscovery, Inc., El Segundo, CA). Poor quality spots were filtered and removed from the analysis. Subsequent normalization, statistical analysis (i.e. t-test), and visualization of array data was conducted using Genespring (Version 7, Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA).
