Extended ischemia prevents HIF1alpha degradation at reoxygenation by impairing prolyl-hydroxylation: role of Krebs cycle metabolites.

ABSTRACT: Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is a heterodimeric transcription factor that activates the cellular response to hypoxia. The HIF1alpha subunit is constantly synthesized and degraded under normoxia, but degradation is rapidly inhibited when oxygen levels drop. Oxygen-dependent hydroxylation by prolyl-4-hydroxylases (PHD) mediates HIF1alpha proteasome degradation. Brain ischemia limits the availability not only of oxygen but also of glucose. We hypothesized that this circumstance could have a modulating effect on HIF. We assessed the separate involvement of oxygen and glucose in HIF1alpha regulation in differentiated neuroblastoma cells subjected to ischemia. We report higher transcriptional activity and HIF1alpha expression under oxygen deprivation in the presence of glucose (OD), than in its absence (oxygen and glucose deprivation, OGD). Unexpectedly, HIF1alpha was not degraded at reoxygenation after an episode of OGD. This was not due to impairment of proteasome function, but was associated with lower HIF1alpha hydroxylation. Krebs cycle metabolites fumarate and succinate are known inhibitors of PHD, while alpha-ketoglutarate is a co-substrate of the reaction. Lack of HIF1alpha degradation in the presence of oxygen was accompanied by a very low alpha-ketoglutarate/fumarate ratio. Furthermore, treatment with a fumarate analogue prevented HIF1alpha degradation under normoxia. In all, our data suggest that postischemic metabolic alterations in Krebs cycle metabolites impair HIF1alpha degradation in the presence of oxygen by decreasing its hydroxylation, and highlight the involvement of metabolic pathways in HIF1alpha regulation besides the well known effects of oxygen.

Project description:Mutations in the genes encoding cartilage associated protein (CRTAP) and prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1 encoded by LEPRE1) were the first identified causes of recessive Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). These proteins, together with cyclophilin B (encoded by PPIB), form a complex that 3-hydroxylates a single proline residue on the α1(I) chain (Pro986) and has cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) activity essential for proper collagen folding. Recent data suggest that prolyl 3-hydroxylation of Pro986 is not required for the structural stability of collagen; however, the absence of this post-translational modification may disrupt protein-protein interactions integral for proper collagen folding and lead to collagen over-modification. P3H1 and CRTAP stabilize each other and absence of one results in degradation of the other. Hence, hypomorphic or loss of function mutations of either gene cause loss of the whole complex and its associated functions. The relative contribution of losing this complex's 3-hydroxylation versus PPIase and collagen chaperone activities to the phenotype of recessive OI is unknown. To distinguish between these functions, we generated knock-in mice carrying a single amino acid substitution in the catalytic site of P3h1 (Lepre1(H662A) ). This substitution abolished P3h1 activity but retained ability to form a complex with Crtap and thus the collagen chaperone function. Knock-in mice showed absence of prolyl 3-hydroxylation at Pro986 of the α1(I) and α1(II) collagen chains but no significant over-modification at other collagen residues. They were normal in appearance, had no growth defects and normal cartilage growth plate histology but showed decreased trabecular bone mass. This new mouse model recapitulates elements of the bone phenotype of OI but not the cartilage and growth phenotypes caused by loss of the prolyl 3-hydroxylation complex. Our observations suggest differential tissue consequences due to selective inactivation of P3H1 hydroxylase activity versus complete ablation of the prolyl 3-hydroxylation complex.

Project description:The hydroxylation of proline residues to 4-trans-hydroxyproline (Hyp) is a common post-translational protein modification in plants, mediated by prolyl 4-hydroxylases (P4Hs). Hyps predominantly occur in a group of cell wall proteins, the Hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs), where they are frequently O-glycosylated. While prolyl-hydroxylation and O-glycosylation are important, e.g. for cell wall stability, they are not desirable in plant-made pharmaceuticals. Sequence motifs recognized for prolyl-hydroxylation derived from vascular plants were proposed but did not include data from mosses, such as Physcomitrella. Here, a phylogenetic reconstruction of plant P4Hs identified six P4Hs in four subfamilies in mosses. We analysed the amino acid sequences and structural environments around Hyps in Physcomitrella utilizing 73 Hyp sites in 24 secretory proteins from multiple MS/MS datasets, and found that prolines in close proximity to other prolines, alanine, serine, threonine and valine were preferentially hydroxylated. About 95 % of the Hyp sites were predictable with a combination of previously defined motifs and methods. In our data, AOV (Ala-Hyp-Val) was the most frequent prolyl-hydroxylation pattern. Additionally, short arabinose chains were attached to Hyps in two cell-wall pectinesterases. A combination of 443 AlphaFold structure models and our MS data of peptides with nearly 3000 proline sites found Hyps predominantly on protein surfaces in disordered regions. Moss-produced human erythropoietin (EPO) exhibited plant-specific O-glycosylation with arabinose chains on two Hyps. This modification was significantly reduced in a P4H1 single knock-out (KO) Physcomitrella mutant. Quantitative proteomics after isotope labelling with different P4H-KO moss mutants revealed specific changes in the amount of proteins, including HRGPs, and a modified prolyl-hydroxylation pattern from the mutants, suggesting a differential function of the six Physcomitrella P4Hs. Quantitative RT-PCR proved a differential effect of single P4H KOs on the expression of the other five p4h genes, suggesting a partial compensation of the mutation. AlphaFold-Multimer models for Physcomitrella P4H1 and its target EPO peptide superposed with the crystal structure of Chlamydomonas P4H1 and a peptide substrate suggested significant amino acids in the active centre of the enzyme that form H-bonds with the peptide substrate, and revealed differences between P4H1 and the other five Physcomitrella P4Hs.
