Project description:We cultivated two halo-alkaliphilic cyanobacteria consortia in chemostats at pH 10.2-11.4. One consortium was dominated by Ca. Sodalinema alkaliphilum, the other by a species of Nodosilinea. These two cyanobacteria dominate natural communities in Canadian and Asian alkaline soda lakes. We show that increasing the pH decreased biomass yield. This decrease was caused, in part, by a dramatic increase in carbon transfer to heterotrophs. At pH 11.4, cyanobacterial growth became limited by bicarbonate uptake, which was mainly ATP-dependent. In parallel, the higher the pH, the more sensitive cyanobacteria became to light, resulting in photoinhibition and upregulation of DNA repair systems.

Project description:RNA quality control pathways serve to get rid of faulty RNAs and therefore must be able to discriminate these RNAs from those that are normal. Here we present evidence that the ATPase cycle of SF1 Helicase Upf1 is required for mRNA discrimination during Nonsense-Mediated Decay (NMD). Mutations affecting the Upf1 ATPase cycle disrupt the mRNA selectivity of Upf1, leading to indiscriminate accumulation of NMD complexes on both NMD target and non-target mRNAs. In addition, two modulators of NMD - translation and termination codon-proximal poly(A) binding protein - depend on Upf1 ATPase to limit Upf1-non-target association. Preferential ATPase-dependent dissociation of Upf1 from non-target mRNAs in vitro suggests that selective release of Upf1 contributes to the ATPase-dependence of Upf1 target discrimination. Given the prevalence of helicases in RNA regulation, ATP hydrolysis may be an underappreciated, yet widely employed, activity in target RNA discrimination.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common human neurodegenerative movement disorder. Studies of the genetic forms of PD have helped to reveal disease mechanisms. Functional interactions between some Parkinson's disease (PD) genes, like PINK1 and parkin, have been identified, but whether other ones interact remains elusive. Here we report an unexpected genetic interaction between two PD genes, VPS35 and EIF4G1. We provide evidence that EIF4G1 upregulation causes defects associated with protein misfolding. Expression of a sortilin protein rescues these defects, downstream of VPS35, suggesting a potential role for sortilins in PD. We also show interactions between VPS35, EIF4G1 and alpha-synuclein, a protein with a key role in the pathogenesis of both sporadic and familial PD. We extend our findings from yeast to an animal model and show these interactions are conserved in neurons. We also connect VPS35 impairments to neurodegeneration in alpha-synuclein transgenic mice. Our studies reveal unexpected genetic and functional interactions between two seemingly unrelated PD genes and functionally connect them to alpha-synuclein pathobiology in yeast, worms, and mouse. Finally, we provide a resource of candidate PD genes for future genetic and functional interrogation.

Project description:The goal of these experiments is to identify RNAs bound by individual RNA-binding proteins. Drosophila S2R+ cells were transiently transfected with vectors encoding the indicated HA-tagged RNA-binding proteins, or without an insert as a control. Expression was induced with CuSO4, whole cell lysates were prepared and protein-RNA complexes were isolated by immunoprecipitation with HA immunoaffinity resin. RNA was then isolated from the immunoprecipitated material, and RNA-Seq libraries were prepared and sequenced. Sequence reads were aligned to the D. melanogaster reference genome Dm3 using TopHat and expression levels were quantitated using cufflinks. This work was funded as part of the modENCODE project by NHGRI. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf At least two biological replicates were performed for each protein studied. In addition, control experiments were performed in which cells were transfected with the same vector lacking an open reading frame.

Project description:The mesophilic methanogenic archaeal model organism Methanosarcina mazei strain Gö1, is crucial for climate and environmental research due to its ability to produce methane from H2 plus CO2, acetate, and methylamines. Here, we established the first Ribo-seq protocol for M. mazei strain Gö1 under two growth conditions (nitrogen sufficiency (+N) versus nitrogen limitation (-N)). Translation of 93 previously annotated and 311 novel small open reading frames (sORFs), coding for proteins ≤ 70 amino acids in length was predicted with high confidence based on Ribo-seq data. Epitope tagging followed by immunoblotting analysis confirmed the translation of 12 out of 15 selected novel sORFs, the remaining three were validated by LC-MS-MS analysis. In total, LC-MS-MS analysis validated translation for 60 annotated sORFs and 26 novel sORFs. A comprehensive differential expression analysis revealed that 29 of 311 novel sORFs were differentially regulated in response to nitrogen availability at the transcriptional and 49 at the translational level. Several reported sRNAs are now emerging as dual-functional sRNAs, including sRNA154, the central regulatory sRNA in regulation of nitrogen metabolism. Numerous of the novel sORFs identified in this study are conserved in Methanosarcina species, some of which showed a phenotype when overproduced, pinpointing important physiological functions. Overall, the comprehensive analysis opens a new avenue to start elucidating the function(s) of small proteins in M. mazei.

Project description:Previously, we published a dataset of human blood plasma and serum samples of 10 healthy males and 10 healthy females, fractionated on a set of sorbents (cation exchange Toyopearl CM-650M, CM Bio-Gel A, SP Sephadex C-25 and anion exchange QAE Sephadex A-25) and analyzed by LC-MS/MS individually and pooled in equal amounts (Supplementary Table S1, Sheet 1) [33]. Blood is a complex tissue and can theoretically contain products of all processes occurring in different parts of the body. To identify potential sources of “alien” (non-human) plasma peptides, we performed a de novo analysis of mass spectrometry data. De novo analysis is a less efficient method of identification than search against databases, since the accuracy and resolution of modern mass spectrometers such as QTOF or Orbitrap remains not high enough. However, we use de novo analysis to identify organisms that include the most abundant components of the complex peptide mixture. This procedure allows us to develop a hypothesis and then perform a standard search against a database of proteins of identified organisms. The de novo identification was carried out using PEAKS Studio 8.0 (Bioinformatics Solutions Inc., Canada) and mass spectrometry driven BLAST analysis against the RefSeq non-redundant database NCBInr (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/). Mass spectra identified as fragments of proteins from different organisms were assigned to a taxonomic level at which these different organisms converged (Supplementary Table S2). 33.

Direct download link: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD008141. We analyzed this dataset again within this work. The detailed information about the dataset of blood plasma/serum samples of 20 healthy donors fractionated on a set of sorbents is available in the original paper [33], including the clinical parameters of the donors, sample collection, plasma/serum fractionation, peptide extraction and LC-MS/MS analysis. 33.

Project description:Previously, we published a dataset of human blood plasma and serum samples of 10 healthy males and 10 healthy females, fractionated on a set of sorbents (cation exchange Toyopearl CM-650M, CM Bio-Gel A, SP Sephadex C-25 and anion exchange QAE Sephadex A-25) and analyzed by LC-MS/MS individually and pooled in equal amounts (Supplementary Table S1, Sheet 1) [33]. We focused on those peptides that could be found in the blood plasma and serum using a standard search against the database of human proteins (UniProt Knowledgebase, taxon human). The combination of search engines MASCOT and X! Tandem, based on Scaffold 4 software with FDR less than 1%, allowed us to identify 15,530 unique peptides that belong to 2,127 protein groups (Table 1, Supplementary Table S1, Sheets 2 and 3). The Venn diagram shows that slightly less than 40% of the peptides are found in all four analyzed samples (Figures 1A and 1B). About 70% of the peptides are found in at least two samples. The accumulation diagram (Figure 1C) shows that the number of new unique peptides does not reach a plateau after repeated analyses of the same plasma sample — even after six runs. The high variability of the plasma and serum peptidome most likely indicates its sophisticated composition. 33. Arapidi, G. et al.

Project description:Influenza A virus is mainly transmitted through the respiratory route and can cause severe illness in humans. Proteins encoded by influenza A virus can interact with cellular factors and dysregulate host biological processes to facilitate viral replication and pathogenicity. The influenza viral PA protein is not only a subunit of influenza viral polymerase but also a virulence factor involved in pathogenicity during infection. To explore the role of the influenza virus PA protein in regulating host biological processes, we conducted immunoprecipitation and LC-MS/MS to globally identify cellular factors that interact with the PA proteins of the influenza A H1N1, 2009 pandemic H1N1, H3N2, and H7N9 viruses. The results demonstrated that proteins located in the mitochondrion, proteasome, and nucleus are associated with the PA protein. We further discovered that the PA protein is located in mitochondria by immunofluorescence and mitochondrial fractionation and that overexpression of the PA protein reduces mitochondrial respiration. In addition, our results revealed the interaction between PA and the mitochondrial matrix protein PYCR2 and the antiviral role of PYCR2 during influenza A virus replication. Moreover, we found that the PA protein could also trigger autophagy and disrupt mitochondrial homeostasis. Overall, our research revealed the impacts of the influenza A virus PA protein on mitochondrial function and autophagy.
