IFITM3 blocks viral entry by sorting lipids and stabilizing hemifusion

ABSTRACT: Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) is a broad-spectrum restriction factor of viral entry, yet the molecular mechanism is poorly understood. We found that IFITM3 localizes to late endosomes, preventing viral fusion. Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations and continuum membrane modeling predicted IFITM3-induced local lipid sorting, resulting in an increased concentration of lipids disfavoring viral fusion at the hemifusion site. This increases the energy barrier of fusion pore formation and the hemifusion dwell time, promoting viral degradation in lysosomes. In situ cryo-electron tomography verified this model by visualizing influenza A virus-induced arrested membrane fusion at molecular resolution. Accumulated hemifusion diaphragms between viral particles and late endosomal membranes confirmed hemifusion stabilization as the molecular mechanism of IFITM3. The presence of hemagglutinin in post-fusion conformation close to hemifusion sites further showed that IFITM3 does not interfere with the viral fusion machinery, which corroborates IFITM3-induced lipid sorting as the primary cause of hemifusion stabilization.

Intuitive, image-based cell sorting using optofluidic cell sorting.

Project description:We present a microfluidic cell-sorting device which augments microscopy with the capability to perform facile image-based cell sorting. This combination enables intuitive, complex phenotype sorting based on spatio-temporal fluorescence or cell morphology. The microfluidic device contains a microwell array that can be passively loaded with mammalian cells via sedimentation and can be subsequently inspected with microscopy. After inspection, we use the scattering force from a focused infrared laser to levitate cells of interest from their wells into a flow field for collection. First, we demonstrate image-based sorting predicated on whole-cell fluorescence, which could enable sorting based on temporal whole-cell fluorescence behavior. Second, we demonstrate image-based sorting predicated on fluorescence localization (nuclear vs whole-cell fluorescence), highlighting the capability of our approach to sort based on imaged subcellular events, such as localized protein expression or translocation events. We achieve postsort purities up to 89% and up to 155-fold enrichment of target cells. Optical manipulation literature and a direct cell viability assay suggest that cells remain viable after using our technique. The architecture is highly scalable and supports over 10 000 individually addressable trap sites. Our approach enables sorting of significant populations based on subcellular spatio-temporal information, which is difficult or impossible with existing widespread sorting technologies.

Sorting by interfacial tension (SIFT): Label-free enzyme sorting using droplet microfluidics.

Project description:Droplet microfluidics has the ability to greatly increase the throughput of screening and sorting of enzymes by carrying reagents in picoliter droplets flowing in inert oils. It was found with the use of a specific surfactant, the interfacial tension of droplets can be very sensitive to droplet pH. This enables the sorting of droplets of different pH when confined droplets encounter a microfabricated trench. The device can be extended to sort enzymes, as a large number of enzymatic reactions lead to the production of an acidic or basic product and a concurrent change in solution pH. The progress of an enzymatic reaction is tracked from the position of a flowing train of droplets. We demonstrate the sorting of esterase isoenzymes based on their enzymatic activity. This label-free technology, that we dub droplet sorting by interfacial tension (SIFT), requires no active components and would have applications for enzyme sorting in high-throughput applications that include enzyme screening and directed evolution of enzymes.

A vacuolar sorting receptor-independent sorting mechanism for storage vacuoles in soybean seeds.

Project description:The seed storage proteins of soybean (Glycine max) are composed mainly of glycinin (11S globulin) and ?-conglycinin (7S globulin). The subunits of glycinin (A1aB1b, A1bB2, A2B1a, A3B4, and A5A4B3) are synthesized as a single polypeptide precursor. These precursors are assembled into trimers with a random combination of subunits in the endoplasmic reticulum, and are sorted to the protein storage vacuoles. Proteins destined for transport to protein storage vacuoles possess a vacuolar sorting determinant, and in this regard, the A1aB1b subunit contains a C-terminal peptide that is sufficient for its sorting to protein storage vacuoles. The A3B4 subunit, however, lacks a corresponding C-terminal sorting determinant. In this study, we found that, unlike the A1aB1b subunit, the A3B4 subunit does not bind to previously reported vacuolar sorting receptors. Despite this difference, we observed that the A3B4 subunit is sorted to protein storage vacuoles in a transgenic soybean line expressing the A3B4 subunit of glycinin. These results indicate that a protein storage vacuolar sorting mechanism that functions independently of the known vacuolar sorting receptors in seeds might be present in soybean seeds.

Sorting Out the Role of α-Synuclein in Retromer-Mediated Endosomal Protein Sorting.

Project description:Retromer is a phylogenetically conserved, multisubunit coat complex that controls endosomal protein trafficking and sorting. Mutations in the retromer gene VPS35 cause late-onset Parkinson disease, suggesting that trafficking defects cause neurodegeneration. Sorting nexins assist retromer to guide cell surface proteins to their assigned destinations, and our interest here is sorting nexin 3 (Snx3). Snx3 binds to membranes via a phox homolog (PX) domain that binds phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), and in human cells its cargo proteins are the transferrin and Wnt receptors and the divalent metal ion transporter, whereas in yeast the best characterized cargo is the iron permease Ftr1. We recently discovered that α-synuclein inhibits Snx3-retromer recycling of Ftr1 in an unexpected way: α-synuclein, which avidly binds to negatively charged lipids, blocks the association of Snx3 to early endosomes. Here, we discuss mechanisms by which α-synuclein can disrupt Snx3-retromer-mediated recycling.

Sorting Out Sorting Nexins Functions in the Nervous System in Health and Disease.

Project description:Endocytosis is a fundamental process that controls protein/lipid composition of the plasma membrane, thereby shaping cellular metabolism, sensing, adhesion, signaling, and nutrient uptake. Endocytosis is essential for the cell to adapt to its surrounding environment, and a tight regulation of the endocytic mechanisms is required to maintain cell function and survival. This is particularly significant in the central nervous system (CNS), where composition of neuronal cell surface is crucial for synaptic functioning. In fact, distinct pathologies of the CNS are tightly linked to abnormal endolysosomal function, and several genome wide association analysis (GWAS) and biochemical studies have identified intracellular trafficking regulators as genetic risk factors for such pathologies. The sorting nexins (SNXs) are a family of proteins involved in protein trafficking regulation and signaling. SNXs dysregulation occurs in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), Down's syndrome (DS), schizophrenia, ataxia and epilepsy, among others, establishing clear roles for this protein family in pathology. Interestingly, restoration of SNXs levels has been shown to trigger synaptic plasticity recovery in a DS mouse model. This review encompasses an historical and evolutionary overview of SNXs protein family, focusing on its organization, phyla conservation, and evolution throughout the development of the nervous system during speciation. We will also survey SNXs molecular interactions and highlight how defects on SNXs underlie distinct pathologies of the CNS. Ultimately, we discuss possible strategies of intervention, surveying how our knowledge about the fundamental processes regulated by SNXs can be applied to the identification of novel therapeutic avenues for SNXs-related disorders.

Sorting the nuclear proteome.

Project description:Quantitative experimental analyses of the nuclear interior reveal a morphologically structured yet dynamic mix of membraneless compartments. Major nuclear events depend on the functional integrity and timely assembly of these intra-nuclear compartments. Yet, unknown drivers of protein mobility ensure that they are in the right place at the time when they are needed.This study investigates determinants of associations between eight intra-nuclear compartments and their proteins in heterogeneous genome-wide data. We develop a model based on a range of candidate determinants, capable of mapping the intra-nuclear organization of proteins. The model integrates protein interactions, protein domains, post-translational modification sites and protein sequence data. The predictions of our model are accurate with a mean AUC (over all compartments) of 0.71. We present a complete map of the association of 3567 mouse nuclear proteins with intra-nuclear compartments. Each decision is explained in terms of essential interactions and domains, and qualified with a false discovery assessment. Using this resource, we uncover the collective role of transcription factors in each of the compartments. We create diagrams illustrating the outcomes of a Gene Ontology enrichment analysis. Associated with an extensive range of transcription factors, the analysis suggests that PML bodies coordinate regulatory immune responses.

Structural insights into how vacuolar sorting receptors recognize the sorting determinants of seed storage proteins.

Project description:In Arabidopsis, vacuolar sorting receptor isoform 1 (VSR1) sorts 12S globulins to the protein storage vacuoles during seed development. Vacuolar sorting is mediated by specific protein-protein interactions between VSR1 and the vacuolar sorting determinant located at the C terminus (ctVSD) on the cargo proteins. Here, we determined the crystal structure of the protease-associated domain of VSR1 (VSR1-PA) in complex with the C-terminal pentapeptide (468RVAAA472) of cruciferin 1, an isoform of 12S globulins. The 468RVA470 motif forms a parallel β-sheet with the switch III residues (127TMD129) of VSR1-PA, and the 471AA472 motif docks to a cradle formed by the cargo-binding loop (95RGDCYF100), making a hydrophobic interaction with Tyr99. The C-terminal carboxyl group of the ctVSD is recognized by forming salt bridges with Arg95. The C-terminal sequences of cruciferin 1 and vicilin-like storage protein 22 were sufficient to redirect the secretory red fluorescent protein (spRFP) to the vacuoles in Arabidopsis protoplasts. Adding a proline residue to the C terminus of the ctVSD and R95M substitution of VSR1 disrupted receptor-cargo interactions in vitro and led to increased secretion of spRFP in Arabidopsis protoplasts. How VSR1-PA recognizes ctVSDs of other storage proteins was modeled. The last three residues of ctVSD prefer hydrophobic residues because they form a hydrophobic cluster with Tyr99 of VSR1-PA. Due to charge-charge interactions, conserved acidic residues, Asp129 and Glu132, around the cargo-binding site should prefer basic residues over acidic ones in the ctVSD. The structural insights gained may be useful in targeting recombinant proteins to the protein storage vacuoles in seeds.

Sorting nexin 10 sustains PDGF receptor signaling in glioblastoma stem cells via endosomal protein sorting.

Project description:Glioblastoma is the most malignant primary brain tumor, the prognosis of which remains dismal even with aggressive surgical, medical, and radiation therapies. Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) promote therapeutic resistance and cellular heterogeneity due to their self-renewal properties and capacity for plasticity. To understand the molecular processes essential for maintaining GSCs, we performed an integrative analysis comparing active enhancer landscapes, transcriptional profiles, and functional genomics profiles of GSCs and non-neoplastic neural stem cells (NSCs). We identified sorting nexin 10 (SNX10), an endosomal protein sorting factor, as selectively expressed in GSCs compared with NSCs and essential for GSC survival. Targeting SNX10 impaired GSC viability and proliferation, induced apoptosis, and reduced self-renewal capacity. Mechanistically, GSCs utilized endosomal protein sorting to promote platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ) proliferative and stem cell signaling pathways through posttranscriptional regulation of the PDGFR tyrosine kinase. Targeting SNX10 expression extended survival of orthotopic xenograft-bearing mice, and high SNX10 expression correlated with poor glioblastoma patient prognosis, suggesting its potential clinical importance. Thus, our study reveals an essential connection between endosomal protein sorting and oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinase signaling and suggests that targeting endosomal sorting may represent a promising therapeutic approach for glioblastoma treatment.
