Project description:Neurofibromatosis Type II is a genetic condition caused by loss of the NF2 gene, resulting in activation of the YAP/TAZ pathway and recurrent growth of benign tumors from Schwann cells, the glia of the peripheral nervous system. Unfortunately, no pharmacological therapy is currently available for NFII. Here, we undertake a genome-wide CRISPR/cas9 screen to search for synthetic-lethal genes that, when inhibited, cause death of NF2 mutant cells but not NF2 wildtype cells. We thereby identify ACSL3 and G6PD as two synthetic-lethal partners for NF2. We find that NF2 mutant Schwann cells are vulnerable to G6PD inhibition because they have low levels of ME1. G6PD and ME1 redundantly generate cytosolic NADPH needed by cells to fight oxidative stress. Lack of either one of the two is compatible with cell viability, but down-regulation of both leads to Schwann cell death. Since genetic deficiency for G6PD is tolerated in the human population, this raises the possibility that G6PD could be a pharmacological target for NFII.

Project description:Site-specifically acetylated G6PD expressed in bacteria or cultured mammalian cells by genetically encoding the incorporation of acetylated lysine. Purified G6PD (expressed in E. coli) or immunopurified G6PD (expressed in HEK293T cells) were subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Project description:To identify acetylation-dependent posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of G6PD, site-specifically acetylated and Flag-tagged G6PD was expressed in HEK293T cells by genetically encoding the incorporation of acetylated lysine in response to an in-frame TAG stop codon. K403-acetylated G6PD (sample) and K414-acetylated G6PD (control) were co-expressed with WT Fyn kinase and a catalytically inactive mutant of Fyn (FynDN). G6PD was immunoprecipitated using anti-Flag beads before MS analysis.

Project description:Our findings establish NIK as a pivotal regulator of T cell metabolism in anti-tumor immunity and highlight a posttranslational mechanism of metabolic regulation involving the G6PD-NADPH redox system. CoIP assays revealed a strong physical interaction between NIK and G6PD in both T cells and transiently transfected 293 cells, suggesting G6PD to be a direct target of NIK. Using a phosphoprotein gel analysis approach, we demonstrated that NIK expression stimulated G6PD phosphorylation. To further study the mechanism, we performed mass spectrometry identify phosphorylation sites of G6PD stimulated by NIK

Project description:Cancer cells heavily rely on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) to counteract oxidative stress and facilitate reductive biosynthesis. One crucial route for NADPH production operates through the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, with a pivotal step at glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). This study delves into the repercussions of G6PD ablation on the development of lung tumors driven by the KRAS oncogene and deficient in LKB1 (KL). The research involved comparing the growth of KL lung tumors with or without G6PD, revealing a significant inhibition of KL lung tumor growth upon G6PD loss. Subsequently, RNA-seq analysis was employed to identify the alterations in gene expression following G6PD deletion, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms.

Project description:Healthy plants are vital for successful, long-duration missions in space, as they provide the crew with life support, food production, and psychological benefits. The microorganisms that associate with plant tissues play a critical role in improving plant growth, health, and production. To that end, it is necessary to develop methodologies that investigate the metabolic activities of the plant’s microbiome in orbit to enable rapid responses regarding the care of plants in space. In this study, we developed a protocol to characterize the endophytic and epiphytic microbial metatranscriptome of red romaine lettuce, a key salad crop that was grown under International Space Station (ISS)-like conditions. Microbial transcripts enriched from host-microbe total RNA were sequenced using the Oxford Nanopore MinION sequencing platform. Results showed that this enrichment approach was highly reproducible and effective for rapid on-site detection of microbial transcriptional activity. Taxonomic analysis based on 16S and 18S rRNA transcripts identified that the top five most abundant phyla in the lettuce microbiome were Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Ascomycota. The metatranscriptomic analysis identified the expression of genes involved in many metabolic pathways, including carbohydrate metabolism, energy metabolism, and signal transduction. Network analyses of the expression data show that, within the signal transduction pathway of the fungal community, the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase signaling pathway was tightly regulated across all samples and could be a potential driver for fungal proliferation. Our results demonstrated the feasibility of using MinION-based metatranscriptomics of enriched microbial RNA as a method for rapid, on-site monitoring of the transcriptional activity of crop microbiomes, thereby helping to facilitate and maintain plant health for on-orbit space food production.

Project description:To evaluate targeted MinION next generation sequencing as a diagnostic method for detection of pathogens in human blood and plasma, human blood or plasma samples were spiked with measured amounts of viruses, bacteria, protozoan parasites or tested pathogen-free as negative controls. Nucleic acid was extracted from samples and PCR amplification performed in multiplex primer pools with a procedure described in ArrayExpress experiment submission ID 18379. The PCR products were used for library preparation. The libraries sequenced on an Oxford Nanopore MinION. The passed reads aligned with a custom reference file to determine the identity of the pathogen in the sample.
