Photorespiration: regulation and new insights on the potential role of persulfidation.

ABSTRACT: Photorespiration has been considered a 'futile' cycle in C3 plants, necessary to detoxify and recycle the metabolites generated by the oxygenating activity of Rubisco. However, several reports indicate that this metabolic route plays a fundamental role in plant metabolism and constitutes a very interesting research topic. Many open questions still remain with regard to photorespiration. One of these questions is how the photorespiratory process is regulated in plants and what factors contribute to this regulation. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the regulation of the photorespiratory pathway with a special focus on the transcriptional and post-translational regulation of photorespiration and the interconnections of this process with nitrogen and sulfur metabolism. Recent findings on sulfide signaling and protein persulfidation are also described.

Regulation of V-ATPase by Jasmonic Acid: Possible Role of Persulfidation.

Project description:Vacuolar H+-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase) is a proton pump crucial for plant growth and survival. For this reason, its activity is tightly regulated, and various factors, such as signaling molecules and phytohormones, may be involved in this process. The aim of this study was to explain the role of jasmonic acid (JA) in the signaling pathways responsible for the regulation of V-ATPase in cucumber roots and its relationship with other regulators of this pump, i.e., H2S and H2O2. We analyzed several aspects of the JA action on the enzyme, including transcriptional regulation, modulation of protein levels, and persulfidation of selected V-ATPase subunits as an oxidative posttranslational modification induced by H2S. Our results indicated that JA functions as a repressor of V-ATPase, and its action is related to a decrease in the protein amount of the A and B subunits, the induction of oxidative stress, and the downregulation of the E subunit persulfidation. We suggest that both H2S and H2O2 may be downstream components of JA-dependent negative proton pump regulation. The comparison of signaling pathways induced by two negative regulators of the pump, JA and cadmium, revealed that multiple pathways are involved in the V-ATPase downregulation in cucumber roots.

The role of photorespiration in preventing feedback regulation via ATP synthase in Nicotiana tabacum.

Project description:Photorespiration consumes substantial amounts of energy in the forms of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reductant making the pathway an important component in leaf energetics. Because of this high reductant demand, photorespiration is proposed to act as a photoprotective electron sink. However, photorespiration consumes more ATP relative to reductant than the C3 cycle meaning increased flux disproportionally increases ATP demand relative to reductant. Here we explore how energetic consumption from photorespiration impacts the flexibility of the light reactions in nicotiana tabacum. Specifically, we demonstrate that decreased photosynthetic efficiency (ϕII ) at low photorespiratory flux was related to feedback regulation at the chloroplast ATP synthase. Additionally, decreased ϕII at high photorespiratory flux resulted in the accumulation of photoinhibition at photosystem II centers. These results are contrary to the proposed role of photorespiration as a photoprotective electron sink. Instead, our results suggest a novel role of ATP consumption from photorespiration in maintaining ATP synthase activity, with implications for maintaining energy balance and preventing photodamage that will be critical for plant engineering strategies.

PGRMC1 regulation by phosphorylation: potential new insights in controlling biological activity

Project description:Progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) is a multifunctional protein implicated in multiple pathologies, including cancer and Alzheimer's disease. The recently published structure of PGRMC1 revealed heme-mediated dimerization that directed the PGRMC1-dependent cytochrome P450-mediated detoxification of doxorubicin. We describe here how the PGRMC1 structure also enables important new insights into the possible regulation of PGRMC1 function by phosphorylation. Predicted regulatory interaction sites for SH2- and SH3-domain proteins are in non-structured regions that could be available to cytoplasmic enzymes. Further to the published interpretation, we suggest that phosphorylation of PGRMC1 at position Y113 may promote the attested membrane trafficking function of PGRMC1. To stimulate further experimentation, we also discuss that heme-mediated dimerization of PGRMC1 and membrane trafficking may be mutually exclusive functions. These roles could potentially be reciprocally regulated by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation at Y113. It follows that the phosphorylation status of PGRMC1 should be further explored in order to better understand many of its proposed biological functions.

Evolutionary insights reveal a new role of peptidyl arginine deiminase 2 in transcription regulation

Project description:Evolutionary insights reveal a new role of peptidyl arginine deiminase 2 in transcription regulationA systematic evolutionary analysis identified positively selected residues in the non-catalytic domain of PADI2. We established a link between the positive evolution of key residues in the PADI2 and their role in transcription. Specifically, we identified the structurally exposed loop encompassing the positively selected L162 in the PADI2 middle domain and its role in transcription and cellular proliferation. This loop contributes to the PADI2 interaction with the P-TEFb complex and cellular proliferation. Our results showcase the use of combining evolutionary and experimental approaches to dissect the dynamic of evolutionary processes.

Progesterone regulation of implantation-related genes: new insights into the role of oestrogen.

Project description:Genomic profiling was performed on explants of late proliferative phase human endometrium after 24-h treatment with progesterone (P) or oestradiol and progesterone (17beta-E(2)+P) and on explants of menstrual phase endometrium treated with 17beta-E(2)+P. Gene expression was validated with real-time PCR in the samples used for the arrays, in endometrium collected from early and mid-secretory phase endometrium, and in additional experiments performed on new samples collected in the menstrual and late proliferative phase. The results show that late proliferative phase human endometrium is more responsive to progestins than menstrual phase endometrium, that the expression of several genes associated with embryo implantation (i.e. thrombomodulin, monoamine oxidase A, SPARC-like 1) can be induced by P in vitro, and that genes that are fully dependent on the continuous presence of 17beta-E(2) during P exposure can be distinguished from those that are P-dependent to a lesser extent. Therefore, 17beta-E(2) selectively primes implantation-related genes for the effects of P.

New insights into androgenic immune regulation.

Project description:Androgens negatively affect both central and peripheral immunity. Their potent immunosuppressive ability is thought to lead to gender dimorphism in autoimmune and infectious disease and hamper immunosurveillance of tumors. Therefore, we investigated the molecular underpinnings of androgens suppression of T-cell differentiation and found evidence that developing strategies to counteract these inhibitory effects may foster successful cancer immunotherapy in the future.

Photorespiration.

Project description:Photorespiration is initiated by the oxygenase activity of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate-carboxylase/oxygenase (RUBISCO), the same enzyme that is also responsible for CO(2) fixation in almost all photosynthetic organisms. Phosphoglycolate formed by oxygen fixation is recycled to the Calvin cycle intermediate phosphoglycerate in the photorespiratory pathway. This reaction cascade consumes energy and reducing equivalents and part of the afore fixed carbon is again released as CO(2). Because of this, photorespiration was often viewed as a wasteful process. Here, we review the current knowledge on the components of the photorespiratory pathway that has been mainly achieved through genetic and biochemical studies in Arabidopsis. Based on this knowledge, the energy costs of photorespiration are calculated, but the numerous positive aspects that challenge the traditional view of photorespiration as a wasteful pathway are also discussed. An outline of possible alternative pathways beside the major pathway is provided. We summarize recent results about photorespiration in photosynthetic organisms expressing a carbon concentrating mechanism and the implications of these results for understanding Arabidopsis photorespiration. Finally, metabolic engineering approaches aiming to improve plant productivity by reducing photorespiratory losses are evaluated.

New Insights on the Regulation of the Insulin-Degrading Enzyme: Role of microRNAs and RBPs.

Project description:The evident implication of the insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), among its capacity to degrade insulin and amyloid-β peptide (Aβ), suggests that IDE could be an essential link in the relation between hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance and AD. However, little is known about the cellular and molecular regulation of IDE expression, and even less has been explored regarding the post-transcriptional regulation of IDE, although it represents a great molecular target of interest for therapeutic treatments. We recently described that miR-7, a novel candidate for linking AD and T2DM at the molecular level, regulates IDE and other key genes in both pathologies, including some key genes involved in the insulin signaling pathway. Here, we explored whether other miRNAs as well as other post-transcriptional regulators, such as RNA binding proteins (RBP), could potentially participate in the regulation of IDE expression in vitro. Our data showed that in addition to miR-7, miR-125, miR-490 and miR-199 regulate IDE expression at the post-transcriptional level. Moreover, we also found that IDE contains multiple potential binding sites for several RBPs, and a narrow-down prediction analysis led us to speculate on a novel regulation of IDE by RALY and HuD. Taken together, these results demonstrate the novel players controlling IDE expression that could represent potential therapeutical targets to treat several metabolic diseases with a high impact on human health, including AD and T2DM.

Sporadic inclusion body myositis: new insights and potential therapy.

Project description:To describe new insights and developments in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of sporadic inclusion body myositis (IBM).Various hypothesis about the pathogenesis of IBM continue to be investigated, including autoimmune factors, mitochondrial dysfunction, protein dyshomeostasis, altered nucleic acid metabolism, myonuclear degeneration and the role of the myostatin pathway. Serum autoantibodies against cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase 1A have been identified in IBM showing moderate diagnostic performance. The differential diagnostic value of histopathological features, including different protein aggregates, continues to be evaluated. MRI may also be of monitoring value in IBM. New therapeutic strategies are being tested in IBM patients, namely the upregulation of the heat shock response and the antagonism of myostatin.Recent important advances have occurred in IBM. These advances, including recent and ongoing clinical trials, may lead to earlier diagnosis and improved understanding and treatment of the disease. Despite improved knowledge, IBM continues to be a puzzling disease and the pathogenesis remains to be clarified. An interdisciplinary, bench to bedside translational research approach is crucial for the successful identification of novel treatments for this debilitating, currently untreatable disorder.
