Project description:Mucin-domain glycoproteins are overlooked yet crucial components of the brain endothelial glycocalyx, playing essential roles in maintaining cerebrovascular integrity and function. Dysregulation of these glycoproteins has been implicated in aging and neurodegenerative disease, including Alzheimer’s disease. In this study, we used both enzymatic and genetic techniques to investigate the influence of mucin-domain glycoproteins on cerebrovascular biology.

Project description:The intestinal anaerobic bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila is specialized in the degradation of mucins, which are heavily O-glycosylated proteins that constitute the major components of the mucus lining the intestine. Despite that adhesion to mucins is considered critical for the persistence of A. muciniphila in the human intestinal tract, our knowledge of how this intestinal symbiont recognizes and binds to mucins is still limited. Here, we first show that the mucin-binding properties of A. muciniphila are independent of environmental oxygen concentrations and not abolished by pasteurization. We then dissected the mucin-binding properties of pasteurized A. muciniphila by use of a recently developed cell-based mucin array that enables display of the tandem repeats of human mucins with distinct O-glycan patterns and structures. We found that A. muciniphila recognizes the unsialylated LacNAc (Galβ1-4GlcNAc1-R) disaccharide selectively on core2 and core3 O-glycans. This disaccharide epitope is abundantly found on human colonic mucins capped by sialic acids, and we demonstrated that endogenous A. muciniphila neuraminidase activity can uncover the epitope and promote binding. In summary, our study provides insights into the mucin-binding properties important for colonization of a key mucin-foraging bacterium.

Project description:Burkholderia species are associated with several life-threatening human infections, often resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates due to their innate resistance to antibiotics. To improve clinical outcomes, new therapies targeting conserved, yet unique, Burkholderia pathways are needed. One such pathway is the Burkholderia O-linked protein glycosylation system, essential for virulence in Burkholderia cenocepacia and Burkholderia pseudomallei. This system relies on the O-Glycosylation gene Cluster (OGC), a five-gene cluster sufficient and required for the generation of a trisaccharide β-Gal-(1,3)–α-GalNAc-(1,3)–β-GalNAc used for protein glycosylation, and the distally encoded oligosaccharyltransferase, pglL, responsible for ligating glycans to glycoproteins. Previous work has shown that the OGC cluster can be removed, but individual mutations associated with late-stage glycan biosynthesis are essential. Here, we explore the essentiality of late-stage O-linked glycan biosynthesis in B. cenocepacia, revealing that the completion and translocation of the O-linked trisaccharide is necessary for viability and bacterial fitness. Using inducible systems, we demonstrate toxicity dependent on multiple OGC genes and the initiation of O-linked glycan biosynthesis. Upon loss of late-stage biosynthesis, mutants exhibit notable growth defects and profound sensitivity to stresses. Proteomics and glycoproteomic analysis show that blocking late-stage glycan biosynthesis inhibits protein glycosylation and drives large membrane proteomic changes. Finally, we demonstrate that OGC mediated toxicity is not limited to blockages but can also occur via the overexpression of steps within O-linked glycan biosynthesis. Combined, these findings suggest that the O-linked glycan biosynthesis pathway of B. cenocepacia is extremely sensitive to dysregulation and may be an ideal target for the development of antimicrobial therapies.

Project description:In a healthy gut, microbes are often aggregated with host mucus, yet the molecular basis for this organization and its impact on intestinal health are unclear. Mucus is a viscous physical barrier separating resident microbes from epithelia, but also provides glycan cues that regulate microbial behaviors. Here, we describe a mucin-sensing pathway in an Aeromonas symbiont of zebrafish, Aer01. In response to the mucin-associated glycan N-acetylglucosamine, a sensor kinase regulates expression of an aggregation-promoting adhesin we named MbpA. Upon MbpA disruption, Aer01 colonizes to normal levels, but is largely planktonic and more immunogenic. Increasing cell surface MbpA rescues these traits. MbpA-like adhesins are common in human-associated bacteria and expression of an Akkermansia muciniphila MbpA-like adhesin in MbpA-deficient Aer01 restores lumenal aggregation and reverses its pro-inflammatory character. Our work demonstrates how resident bacteria use mucin glycans to modulate behaviors congruent with host health.
