Project description:Microorganisms living in nutrient- and energy-limited environments must finely coordinate anabolic and catabolic pathways. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this balance remain poorly understood. Here, we report a mechanism cross-regulating amino acid biosynthesis and anaerobic respiration in bacterial cells. Using the model bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, we demonstrated that methionine activates extracellular electron transfer activity at submillimolar concentrations. This regulation is mediated by the transcription factor MetR, a canonical regulator of methionine biosynthesis. Under methionine-limited conditions, MR-1 upregulates methionine biosynthesis genes while repressing genes involved in extracellular electron transfer (metal reduction) and other anaerobic respiratory processes. Conversely, methionine availability relieves this repression, enhancing extracellular electron transfer. Furthermore, the MetR-mediated regulation of extracellular electron transfer was observed in Aeromonas hydrophila. These findings reveal a novel physiological role for MetR, suggesting its involvement in the coordinated energy distribution between anabolic and catabolic pathways.

Project description:Cancer remains a global health challenge necessitating innovative therapies. We introduce a strategy to disrupt cancer cell redox balance using gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as electron sinks combined with electroactive membranes. Utilizing Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 membrane proteins, we develop liposomes enriched with c-type cytochromes. These, coupled with Au NPs, facilitate autonomous electron transfer from cancer cells, disrupting redox processes and inducing cell death. Effective across various cancer types, larger Au NPs show enhanced efficacy, especially under hypoxic conditions. Oxidative stress from Au@MIL (MIL: membrane-integrated liposome) treatments, including mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum lipid oxidation and mitochondrial membrane potential changes, triggers apoptosis, bypassing ironmediated pathways. Surface plasmon band and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) analyses confirm electron transfer. A SiO2 insulator coating on Au NPs blocks this transfer, suppressing cancer cell damage. This approach highlights the potential of modulated electron transfer pathways in targeted cancer therapy, offering refined and effective treatments.

Project description:Stimulation of the innate immune system by foreign RNA elicits a potent interferon response and can trigger cell death. The mechanisms by which cells balance a robust response with cell-intrinsic lethality are still being uncovered. Employing genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 genetic screens with triphosphorylated RNA stimulation, we discovered that the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) nuclear body-localized speckled protein 110 (SP110) is a potent inhibitor of type 1 interferon-driven cell death. Death suppression by SP110 counteracts a toxic activity of SP100, a major constituent of PML bodies. Loss of SP110 leads to mitotic retention of SP100 and PML bodies which associate with and perturb segregating chromosomes leading to micronucleus formation, DNA damage, and genotoxic cell death. A combination of cryo-electron microscopy, AlphaFold modeling, and cellular biochemistry reveals that SP110 dissolves toxic SP100 oligomers via necessary and sufficient direct interactions between their caspase activation and recruitment domains (CARDs). These data reveal critical roles of SP100 and SP110 in governing disassembly of PML bodies during mitosis and the repercussions if this process is mis-regulated.

Project description:The oxidation of NADH is essential for maintaining cellular redox balance and supporting cell metabolism. Mitochondrial complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) plays a central role in this process by coupling NADH oxidation to electron transfer and protons translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane. We previously reported that the antiseizure drug stiripentol decreases lactate production and mitochondrial respiration, suggesting an impact on NADH turnover beyond its known inhibition of lactate dehydrogenase. In this study, we identify complex I as a target of stiripentol across multiple species and cell types. Biochemical and spectroscopic analyses demonstrate that stiripentol inhibits NADH oxidation and electron transfer through a mechanism distinct from that of classical ubiquinone pocket inhibitors such as rotenone or piericidin A. Remarkably, stiripentol acts upstream of the ubiquinone reduction site, representing the first example of a complex I inhibitor with a binding site within the N-module. These findings uncover a previously unrecognized mode of complex I inhibition and link stiripentol’s metabolic effects to direct modulation of mitochondrial NADH oxidation. This work broadens the understanding of stiripentol’s mechanism of action and highlights its potential to modulate redox metabolism in cancer cells.

Project description:Most dairy cows suffer uterine microbial contamination postpartum. Persistent endometritis often develops, associated with reduced fertility. We used a model of differential feeding and milking regimes to produce cows in differing negative energy balance (NEB) status in early lactation. We used Affymetrix GeneChipM-CM-^R Bovine Genome Array to investigate the global gene expression underlying negative energy balance and to identify the significantly differentially expressed genes during this process. We investigate the differences of gene expression profiles in uterine endometrial tissues between the cows with mild and severe negative energy balance.
