Time resolved ribosome profiling study of oxygen and glucose deprivation of rat pheochromocytoma cells

ABSTRACT: Oxygen and glucose metabolism plays a pivotal role in many (patho)physiological conditions. In particular, oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) occurs during ischemia and stroke, resulting in extensive tissue injury and cell death. We applied time-resolved ribosome profiling technique to assess early events at the level of gene expression in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells during short-term OGD. Most substantial alterations in transcripts levels and their translation were seen to occur in the first 20 minutes of OGD. The rapid adaptation of translation apparatus to OGD is global and involves altered elongation and initiation rates. We also observed salient and reproducible alterations in ribosome densities of individual mRNAs such as increased translation of particular upstream Open Reading Frames (uORFs); induced site-specific arrests of the ribosomes and synthesis of extended protein isoforms. Ribosome profiling (with mRNA-seq sequencing) was carried out at 0,20,40 and 60 minutes of OGD. Two biological replicates were used.

<h4>Background</h4>Oxygen and glucose metabolism play pivotal roles in many (patho)physiological conditions.

Project description:Infection or reactivation with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is still a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing solid organ transplantation or allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). Recent studies have shown that protection against latent HCMV infection relies on a much broader antigen spectrum than previously expected. The identification of novel immunogenic HCMV-derived peptides that facilitate HCMV control is therefore essential to improve immune monitoring of HCMV-specific T cells and HCMV vaccine development. In particular, only a few HCMV-derived peptides have been described for less common HLA alleles, such as HLA-A*03:01 and HLA-B*15:01, limiting the implementation of these techniques for a substantial number of patients. Here, we identified novel HCMV-derived HLA-A*03:01- and HLA-B*15:01-restricted immunogenic peptides by an innovative combined in vitro and in silico approach. We utilized the computational tools Peptide-PRISM (1) and PRICE (2) to analyze mass spectrometric (MS) and ribosome sequencing (ribo-seq) datasets, respectively. To refine our in silico approach, we utilized machine learning to rate the identified peptide candidates based on their translational activity, binding affinity and positioning within the small open reading frames (sORFs), with the goal of assessing their likelihood to be presented on HLA-A*03:01 and HLA-B*15:01 molecules. After identifying the highest-scoring 49 canonical and 49 cryptic potentially immunogenic peptides for each HLA allele, we assessed their immunogenicity by screening HCMV-seropositive and -seronegative healthy donors, as well as alloSCT patients for their peptide-specific T-cell responses. We used a stimulation procedure in two consecutive steps: peripheral blood cells (PBMCs) were stimulated starting with peptide pools and subsequently with potentially reactive single peptides. In vitro T-cell stimulation resulted in the direct identification of three canonical and one cryptic HLA-A*03-restricted immunogenic peptides as well as five canonical and one cryptic HLA-B*15-restricted immunogenic peptide, with a specific IFNγ+/CD8+ T cell response of ≥ 0.02%. Highest T-cell responses were identified against two HLA-A*03-restricted and three HLA-B*15-restricted canonical peptides with up to 3.42% of IFNγ+/CD8+ T cells in patients 180 days post alloSCT. In conclusion, we identified specific T-cell responses against eight canonical and two cryptic HLA-A*03:01- and HLA-B*15:01-restricted peptides in healthy individuals and post-transplanted patients and which were classified as immunogenic. Of these, six peptides are novel HCMV-derived, immunogenic peptides according to the UniProt database, broadening the spectrum of immunogenic HCMV-derived peptides for personalized immune monitoring and vaccine development.

Project description:Disruptions of protein homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) elicit activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), a translation- and transcription-coupled proteostatic stress response pathway. The primary translational control arm of the UPR is initiated by the PERK-dependent phosphorylation of eIF2Î±, leading to a large-scale reprogramming of translation and subsequent activation of an ATF4-mediated transcriptional program. It has remained challenging, however, to accurately evaluate the contribution of each component of the eIF2Î±/ATF4 pathway to the remodelling of transcription and translation. Here, we have used mouse embryonic fibroblasts containing either a knock-in of the non-phosphorylatable eIF2Î± S51A mutant or knock-out for ATF4 by ribosome profiling and mRNA-seq to define the specific contributions of eIF2Î± phosphoryation and ATF4 in controlling the translational and transcriptional components of the UPR. These studies show that the transcriptional and translational targets of each P-eIF2Î±, ATF4, and the other UPR gene expression programs overlapped extensively, leading to a core set of UPR genes whose robust expression in response to ER stress is driven by multiple mechanisms. The identification of other, more factor-specific targets illustrated the potential for functional specialization of the UPR. As the UPR progressed temporally, cells employed distinct combinations of transcriptional and translational mechanisms, initiated by different factors, to adapt to ongoing stress. These effects were accompanied by a buffering effect where changes in mRNA levels were coupled to opposing changes in ribosome loading, a property which makes cooperation between transcription and translation essential to confer robust protein expression. Translational analysis by ribosome profiling and mRNA-seq of PERK pathways mutants during the UPR. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking components of the PERK pathway (eIF2a phosphorylation and ATF4) were subjected to ER stress and analyzed by ribosome profiling.

Project description:Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) refers to the family of RNA transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides in length, but cannot encode proteins. lincRNA (long intergenic noncoding RNA) is a subset of lncRNA that do not overlap with known genes. Increasing evidences have shown that some of these transcripts do in fact contain open reading frames (ORFs) to code short peptides, and do have significant functional roles within the cells. However, many of these peptides remain unannotated and uncharacterized. This study proposes a workflow integrating proteomics, transcriptomics and bioinformatics specifically for lincRNA-encoded peptide discovery. The workflow was tested on the mouse kidney inner medulla (IM), a region that contains the collecting duct system responsible for regulated water transport. In brief, short peptides (from 2 to 20 kDa) were enriched by tricine protein gel and in-gel trypsinized into peptides, then analyzed using high resolution mass spectrometry. However, to match mass fragment ion spectra to peptide sequences requires a reference peptide sequence database which are not available for the noncoding transcripts, and must be generated de novo in the sample of interest. We modified the RNA-Seq mapping workflow by filtering out coding reads first to better quantitate the noncoding transcript expressions. Also, a rule-based ORF prediction was implemented to select one best predicted ORF per noncoding transcript to construct the peptide library. Candidates were further evaluated using several quality control criteria and bioinformatics tools. Three candidates, conserved in rat and human, passed all criteria, maybe truly novel coding genes. In summary, we present a workflow based on the modern transcriptomics and proteomics technologies for lincRNA-encoded peptide discovery. A computational challenge is to generate a hypothetical lincRNA-encoded peptide database for peptide-mass spectra matching. With this workflow, we discovered three previously unannotated peptides in the mouse kidney inner medulla. The same workflow can be applied in any cell or tissue type of interest to quickly advance this research field.
