Transient expression of misfolded surfactant protein C

ABSTRACT: Mutations in the SFTPC gene associated with interstitial lung disease in human patients result in misfolding, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention, and degradation of the encoded surfactant protein C (SP-C) proprotein. To identify candidate genes involved in ER quality control of SP-C, HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with mutant SP-C (SP-CΔexon4 or SP-CL188Q), SP-CWT, or vector cDNAs, and global changes in gene expression were assessed by microarray analyses. Microarray analysis demonstrated that the SPC exon 4 deletion and SPC L188Q mutations invoke very similar transcriptional profiles including the activation of major players mediating ER response and unfolding protein response (UPR) in transient transfection system. In combination with promoter scan (UPRE, ERSE, XBP1 sites) and protein domain analysis (Finding ER Lumen, ER Membrane retention signal, J-Domain and Leucine Zipper domain), we were able to not only verify the known ERAD components (XBP1, Bip, Erdj4&5), but also identify multiple ER components which may play critical roles in the detection and /or degradation of mutant SPC, which in turn will help us to gain better understanding of the entire mammalian ERAD machinery. samples consisted of HEK293 cells transiently transfected with wild-type SP-C (WT), the delta exon4 mutant of SP-C (Ex4) or L188Q mutant of SP-C (LQ). Groups were performed in triplicate.

Structure of the human signal peptidase complex

Project description:The ER-resident signal peptidase complex (SPC) is an essential membrane protein complex involved in the maturation of soluble and type-I transmembrane proteins destined to the secretory pathway. As a part of the ER translocon machinery, the SPC removes signal peptides (SPs) from the N-termini of many proteins such as hormones, antibodies, or secretory enzymes1,2. To accomplish this task, the SPC must process a large variety of SPs with an exquisite specificity. Although the determinants of SP recognition have been established empirically3, the molecular details of SP recognition and removal remain elusive. Here, we show that the human SPC exists in two functional paralogs with distinct proteolytic subunits. We determined the structures and posttranslational modifications of both paralogs using electron cryo-microscopy and structural proteomics. The respective proteolytic subunits SEC11A and SEC11C adopt a conserved signal peptidase (SPase) fold with their active sites facing a prominent transmembrane window, which is collectively formed by the transmembrane domains of all SPC subunits. Characteristic, charged regions on both sides of this window locally thin the membrane by approximately 40% compared to the exterior. The data suggest a mechanistic model for SPC specificity and the transfer of SPs from the Sec61 translocation channel to the SPC.

Activation of XBP1s attenuates disease severity in models of proteotoxic Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1B

Project description:Mutations in myelin protein zero (MPZ) are generally associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1B (CMT1B) disease, one of the most common forms of demyelinating neuropathy. Pathogenesis of some MPZ mutants, such as S63del and R98C, involves protein misfolding and retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of myelinating Schwann cells. To cope with proteotoxic ER-stress, Schwann cells mount an unfolded protein response (UPR) characterized by activation of the PERK, ATF6 and IRE1/XBP1 pathways. Previous studies have reported that targeting PERK pathway can mitigate the neuropathy in CMT1B mice. To unravel the role of the XBP1 pathway in normal myelination and in CMT1B, we generated mouse models of in which XBP1 is deleted specifically in Schwann cells. We observed that whereas XBP1 is dispensable for normal developmental myelination, myelin maintenance and remyelination after injury, the absence of XBP1 dramatically worsens the hypomyelination and the electrophysiological and locomotor parameters in young and adult CMT1B neuropathic animals. RNAseq analysis suggested that XBP1 exerts its adaptive function in large part via the induction of genes involved in misfolded protein degradation. Accordingly, the exacerbation of the neuropathy was accompanied by upregulation of ER-stress pathways and of IRE1-mediated RIDD signaling, suggesting that the activation of XBP1 plays a critical role in limiting mutant proteins toxicity, which cannot be compensated by other stress responses. Schwann cell specific overexpression of spliced XBP1 partially re-established Schwann cell proteostasis and attenuated CMT1B severity in vivo in both the S63del and R98C mouse models. In addition, the pharmacologic selective activation of XBP1 signaling ameliorated myelination in S63del dorsal root ganglia explants.

Regulation of endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria contacts and mitochondrial dynamics by Sel1L-Hrd1 ERAD during thermogenesis

Project description:Organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria interact with each other at specialized domains on the ER known as mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs). Here, using three-dimensional high-resolution imaging techniques, we show that the Sel1LHrd1 protein complex, the most conserved branch of ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD), exerts a profound impact on ER-mitochondria contacts and mitochondrial dynamics, at least in part, by regulating the turnover and hence the abundance of the MAM protein sigma receptor 1 (SigmaR1). Sel1L or Hrd1 deficiency in brown adipocytes impairs dynamic interaction between ER and mitochondria, leading to the formation of pleomorphic “megamitochondria” and, in some cases with penetrating ER tubule(s), in response to acute cold challenge. Mice with ERAD deficiency are cold sensitive and exhibit mitochondrial dysfunction in brown adipocytes. Mechanistically, endogenous SigmaR1 is targeted for proteasomal degradation by Sel1L-Hrd1 ERAD, whose accumulation in ERAD-deficient cells leads to mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) oligomerization, thereby linking ERAD to mitochondrial dynamics. Our study identifies Sel1L-Hrd1 ERAD as a critical determinant of ER-mitochondria contacts, thereby regulating mitochondrial dynamics and thermogenesis.

Targeting the IRE1α/XBP1 endoplasmic reticulum stress response pathway in ARID1Amutant ovarian cancers

Project description:xenograft, patientderived xenograft and the genetic Arid1aflox/flox/Pik3caH1047R mouse models. Finally, B-I09 synergizes with inhibition of HDAC6, a known regulator of the ER stress response, in suppressing the growth of ARID1A-inactivated OCCCs. These studies reveal a promising therapeutic strategy for ARID1A-mutant OCCCs and define the IRE1?-XBP1 axis of the ER stress response as a targetable vulnerability for ARID1A-mutant OCCCs. Our findings indicate that pharmacological inhibition of the IRE1?-XBP1 pathway alone or in combination with HDAC6 inhibition represents an urgently needed therapeutic strategy for ARID1A-mutant ovarian cancers.

IRE1alpha is an endogenous substrate of endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) represents a principle quality control (QC) mechanism to clear misfolded proteins in the ER; however, its physiological significance and the nature of endogenous ERAD substrates remain largely unknown. Here we discover that IRE1alpha, the sensor of unfolded protein response (UPR), is a bona fide substrate of the Sel1L-Hrd1 ERAD complex. Mechanistically, ERAD-mediated IRE1alpha degradation occurs in a Bip-dependent manner under basal conditions and is attenuated in response to ER stress. Both intramembrane hydrophilic residues of IRE1alpha and lectin protein OS9 are required for IRE1alpha degradation. ERAD deficiency causes IRE1alpha protein stabilization, accumulation and mild activation both in vitro and in vivo, leading to cellular hypersensitivity to ER stress and inflammation. Furthermore, though enterocyte-specific Sel1L-knockout mice (Sel1LΔIEC) are viable and appear normal, they are more susceptible to experimental colitis in an IRE1alpha-dependent but CHOP-independent manner. Collectively, these results demonstrate that Sel1L-Hrd1 ERAD serves a distinct, essential function in restraint of IRE1alpha signaling in vivo by managing its protein turnover.

XBP1 links ER stress to intestinal inflammation

Project description:XBP1 is the transcriptino factor that is activated by the ER stress. XBP1 is known to induce the ER dexpansion and increase the expression of the ER chaperone genes to prtect the cell from the ER stress. We generated a mouse strain that lacked XBP1 specifically in the mouse intestine by breeding the XBP1flox mice with Villin-cre mice. Here we examined genes that are differentially expressed between WT and XBP1 KO mouse intestine to identify genes that are downstream of XBP1.

Sel1L is Indispensable for Mammalian ERAD, ER Homeostasis and Survival

Project description:Sel1L is an adaptor protein for the E3 ligase Hrd1 involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). Its physiological importance in mammalian ERAD, however, remains to be established. Here, using the inducible Sel1L knockout mouse and cell models, we provide the first in vivo evidence that Sel1L is indispensable for Hrd1 stability, ER homeostasis and survival. Acute loss of Sel1L leads to premature death in adult mice within 3 weeks with profound pancreatic atrophy. Contrary to current belief, our data show that mammalian Sel1L is required for Hrd1 stability and ERAD function both in vitro and in vivo. Sel1L deficiency disturbs ER homeostasis, activates ER stress, attenuates translation and promotes cell death. Serendipitously, using biochemical approach coupled with mass spectrometry, we found that Sel1L deficiency causes the aggregation of both small and large ribosomal subunits. Thus, Sel1L is an indispensable component of mammalian ERAD and ER homeostasis, which is essential for protein translation, pancreatic function, cellular and organismal survival. Pancreas tissue of wild type and inducible Sel1L knockout mice were subjected to gene expression analysis.
