Huntingtin interactome in human striatal neurons derived from iPSCs upon the induction of double strand break (DSB) DNA damage response

ABSTRACT: Huntington’s Disease (HD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with no disease-modifying therapies, is caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the HD gene encoding polyglutamine-expanded huntingtin (HTT) protein. Mechanisms of HD cellular pathogenesis and cellular functions of the normal and mutant HTT proteins are still not completely understood. HTT protein has numerous interaction partners, and it likely provides a scaffold for assembly of multiprotein complexes many of which may be altered in HD. Previous studies have implicated DNA damage response in HD pathogenesis. Gene transcription and RNA processing has also emerged as molecular mechanisms associated with HD. Here we used multiple approaches to identify HTT interactors in the context of DNA damage stress. We present evidence for the role for HTT in double strand break (DSB) repair mechanism. Our results indicate that HTT interacts with many proteins involved in the regulation of interconnected DNA repair/remodeling and RNA processing pathways.

PTMs of HTT protein - Post-translational modifications (PTMs), identified on endogenous huntingtin, cluster within proteolytic domains between HEAT repeats

Project description:Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins regulate various cellular processes. PTMs of polyglutamine-expanded huntingtin (Htt) protein, causative of Huntington’s disease (HD), are likely modulators of HD pathogenesis. Previous studies have identified and characterized several PTMs on exogenously expressed Htt fragments, however none of these studies were designed to systematically characterize PTMs on the endogenous full-length Htt protein.We found that full-length endogenous Htt, immunoprecipitated from HD knock-in mouse and human post mortem brain, is suitable for detection of PTMs by mass spectrometry. Using label-free mass spectrometry, we identified around 40 PTMs, of which half are novel. These findings will be instrumental in the further assembling the Htt PTM framework, and validate PTMs of Htt as promising therapeutic targets for HD.

HAP40 orchestrates huntingtin structure for differential interaction with polyglutamine expanded exon 1

Project description:Huntington’s disease results from expansion of a glutamine-coding CAG tract in the huntingtin (HTT) gene, producing an aberrantly functioning form of HTT. Both wildtype and disease-state HTT form a hetero-dimer with HAP40 of unknown functional relevance. We demonstrate in vivo and in cell models that HTT and HAP40 cellular abundance are coupled. Integrating data from a 2.6 Å cryo-electron microscopy structure, cross-linking mass spectrometry, small-angle X-ray scattering, and modeling, we provide a near-atomic-level view of HTT, its molecular interaction surfaces and compacted domain architecture, orchestrated by HAP40. Native mass-spectrometry reveals a remarkably stable hetero-dimer, potentially explaining the cellular inter-dependence of HTT and HAP40. The exon 1 region of HTT is dynamic but shows greater conformational variety in the polyglutamine expanded mutant than wildtype exon 1. Our data provide a foundation for future functional and drug discovery studies targeting Huntington’s disease and illuminate the structural consequences of HTT polyglutamine expansion.

HTT-OMNI: A Web-based Platform for Huntingtin Interaction Exploration and Multi-omics Data Integration

Project description:We have developed a web-based platform for HTT PPI visualization, exploration, and multi-omic integration called HTT-OMNI. We demonstrate the utility of this platform not only for exploring and filtering existing huntingtin (HTT) PPIs, but also for investigating user-generated omics datasets. For example, we demonstrate the comparison of a published HTT IP-MS experiment, performed in the striatum brain region of a mouse HD model, to unpublished HTT IP-MS experiments in the cortex brain region. Overall, HTT-OMNI summarizes and integrates known HTT PPIs with polyQ-dependent transcriptome and proteome measurements, providing an all-in-one exploratory platform that facilitates the prioritization of target genes that may contribute to HD pathogenesis.

Huntingtin polyglutamine expansion modulates protein interaction dynamics in the striatum

Project description:Huntington’s disease is a monogenic disorder, with only one known causative gene, huntingtin (HTT). Expansion of a trinucleotide (CAG) repeat within the HTT gene results in a mutant protein containing polyglutamine (polyQ) stretches. While mutant HTT is the primary driver of cellular degeneration in the brain, the molecular and cellular mechanisms are incompletely understood. To further understand the role of polyQ in disease pathogenesis, we studied the dynamics of HTT protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in the striatum of mice with wild-type (Q20) and mutant (Q140) HTT at pre-symptomatic and manifest HD ages using label-free and isotope-labeled IP-MS approaches. Combining these approaches, we demonstrated that HTT PPI dynamics are distinct in early and later disease phases. Computational analysis pointed to early protein interaction changes involving synaptic transmission and vesicle fusion functions, while later interactions underlie changes in synapse morphogenesis and impact the actin cytoskeletal network.

Identification of full length wild-type and mutant huntingtin interacting proteins by crosslinking immunoprecipitation in mice brain cortex

Project description:Huntington’s Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG expansion in exon1 of the huntingtin (Htt) gene. The resulting polyglutamine expansion in the ubiquitously expressed mutant Htt (mHtt) protein leads to selective neurodegeneration. In this study we set out to identify interacting proteins of full length wild-type and mHtt protein in the mice cortex brain region in order to get a better understanding of the processes involved in HD pathology.

Huntingtin contains a ubiquitin-binding domain and regulates lysosomal targeting of mitochondrial and RNA-binding proteins

Project description:Understanding the normal function of the Huntingtin (HTT) protein is of significance in the design and implementation of therapeutic strategies for Huntington’s disease (HD). Expansion of the CAG repeat in the HTT gene, encoding an expanded polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat within the HTT protein, causes HD and may compromise HTT’s normal activity contributing to HD pathology. Here, we investigated the previously defined role of HTT in autophagy specifically through studying HTT’s association with ubiquitin. We find that HTT interacts directly with ubiquitin in vitro. Tandem affinity purification was used to identify ubiquitinated and ubiquitin-associated proteins that co-purify with a HTT N-terminal fragment under basal conditions. Co-purification is enhanced by HTT polyQ expansion and reduced by mimicking HTT serine 421 phosphorylation. The identified HTT-interacting proteins include RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) involved in mRNA translation, proteins enriched in stress granules, the nuclear proteome, the defective ribosomal products (DRiPs) proteome and the brain-derived autophagosomal proteome. To determine whether the proteins interacting with HTT are autophagic targets, HTT knockout (KO) cells and immunoprecipitation of lysosomes were used to investigate autophagy in the absence of HTT. HTT KO was associated with reduced abundance of mitochondrial proteins in the lysosome, indicating a potential compromise in basal mitophagy, and increased lysosomal abundance of RBPs which may result from compensatory upregulation of starvation-induced macroautophagy. We suggest HTT is critical for appropriate basal clearance of mitochondrial proteins and RBPs, hence reduced HTT proteostatic function with mutation may contribute to the neuropathology of HD.

The ubiquitin ligase UBR5 suppresses proteostasis collapse in immortal pluripotent stem cells and Huntington’s disease models

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells undergo unlimited self-renewal while maintaining their potential to differentiate into post-mitotic cells with an intact proteome, a capacity that demands a highly induced proteostasis network. As such, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) suppress the aggregation of polyQ-expanded huntingtin (HTT), the mutant protein underlying Huntington’s disease (HD). Here we show that proteasome activity determines HTT levels, preventing the accumulation of polyQ-expanded aggregates in iPSCs from HD patients (HD-iPSCs). iPSCs exhibit intrinsic high levels of UBR5, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that we find required for proteasomal degradation of both normal and mutant HTT. When UBR5 fails to monitor HTT proteostasis, the concomitant up-regulation of HTT expression particularly results in polyQ-expanded aggregation in HD-iPSCs. Moreover, UBR5 knockdown hastens protein aggregation and neurotoxicity in polyQ-expanded invertebrate models. Notably, ectopic expression of UBR5 is sufficient to induce polyubiquitination and degradation of mutant HTT, reducing polyQ-expanded aggregates in HD cell models. However, UBR5 is dispensable for the proteostasis of other aggregation-prone proteins linked with Machado-Joseph disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in iPSCs. Besides its role in HTT regulation, we find that intrinsic high levels of UBR5 also determine the global proteostatic ability of iPSCs preventing aggresome formation, suggesting a role in the control of misfolded proteins ensued from normal metabolism. Thus, our findings indicate UBR5 as a central component of super-vigilant proteostasis of iPSCs with the potential to correct proteostatic deficiencies in HD.

G3BP1-dependent suppression of polyglutamine aggregation in Huntington’s models and its failure upon stress granule formation

Project description:To define the interactome of huntingtin protein (HTT) in human neurons, we assessed interactors of HTT with coimmunoprecipitation experiments with huntingtin antibody or polyqlutamine antibody (it only recognizes mutant huntingtin protein with abnormal polyqlutamine expansion) in striatal neurons differentiated from control and patient-derived iPSC lines (HD-iPSCs). GFP antibody used as a negative control.
