Biosynthetic and iron metabolism is regulated by thiol proteome changes dependent on glutaredoxin-2 and mitochondrial peroxiredoxin-1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

ABSTRACT: Redoxins are involved in maintenance of thiol redox homeostasis, but their exact sites of action are only partly known. We have applied a combined redox proteomics and transcriptomics experimental strategy to discover specific functions of two interacting redoxins: dually localized glutaredoxin 2 (Grx2p) and mitochondrial peroxiredoxin 1 (Prx1p). We have identified 139 proteins showing differential postranslational thiol redox modifications when the cells do not express Grx2p, Prx1p, or both and have mapped the precise cysteines involved in each case. Some of these modifications constitute functional switches that affect metabolic and signaling pathways as the primary effect, leading to gene transcription remodeling as the secondary adaptive effect as demonstrated by a parallel high throughput gene expression analysis. The results suggest that in the absence of Grx2p, the metabolic flow toward nucleotide and aromatic amino acid biosynthesis is slowed down by redox modification of the key enzymes Rpe1p (D-ribulose-5-phosphate 3-epimerase), Tkl1p (transketolase) and Aro4p (3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase). The glycolytic mainstream is then diverted toward carbohydrate storage by induction of trehalose and glycogen biosynthesis genes. Porphyrin biosynthesis may also be compromised by inactivation of the redox-sensitive cytosolic enzymes Hem12p (uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase) and Sam1p (S-adenosyl methionine synthetase) and a battery of respiratory genes sensitive to low heme levels are induced. Genes of the Aft1p-dependent iron regulon were induced specifically in the absence of Prx1p despite optimal mitochondrial Fe-S biogenesis, suggesting dysfunction of the mitochondria to the cytosol signaling pathway. Strikingly, requirement of Grx2p for these events places dithiolic Grx2 in the framework of iron metabolism.

Project description:BackgroundIron-deficiency anemia is the most prevalent form of anemia world-wide. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been used as a model of cellular iron deficiency, in part because many of its cellular pathways are conserved. To better understand how cells respond to changes in iron availability, we profiled the yeast genome with a parallel analysis of homozygous deletion mutants to identify essential components and cellular processes required for optimal growth under iron-limited conditions. To complement this analysis, we compared those genes identified as important for fitness to those that were differentially-expressed in the same conditions. The resulting analysis provides a global perspective on the cellular processes involved in iron metabolism.ResultsUsing functional profiling, we identified several genes known to be involved in high affinity iron uptake, in addition to novel genes that may play a role in iron metabolism. Our results provide support for the primary involvement in iron homeostasis of vacuolar and endosomal compartments, as well as vesicular transport to and from these compartments. We also observed an unexpected importance of the peroxisome for growth in iron-limited media. Although these components were essential for growth in low-iron conditions, most of them were not differentially-expressed. Genes with altered expression in iron deficiency were mainly associated with iron uptake and transport mechanisms, with little overlap with those that were functionally required. To better understand this relationship, we used expression-profiling of selected mutants that exhibited slow growth in iron-deficient conditions, and as a result, obtained additional insight into the roles of CTI6, DAP1, MRS4 and YHR045W in iron metabolism.ConclusionComparison between functional and gene expression data in iron deficiency highlighted the complementary utility of these two approaches to identify important functional components. This should be taken into consideration when designing and analyzing data from these type of studies. We used this and other published data to develop a molecular interaction network of iron metabolism in yeast.
