QuaNCAT: quantitating proteome dynamics in primary cells.

ABSTRACT: Here we demonstrate quantitation of stimuli-induced proteome dynamics in primary cells by combining the power of bio-orthogonal noncanonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT) and stable-isotope labeling of amino acids in cell culture (SILAC). In conjunction with nanoscale liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS/MS), quantitative noncanonical amino acid tagging (QuaNCAT) allowed us to monitor the early expression changes of >600 proteins in primary resting T cells subjected to activation stimuli.

Proteome-wide acetylation dynamics in human cells.

Project description:Protein acetylation plays a critical role in biological processes by regulating the functions and properties of proteins. Thus, the study of protein acetylation dynamics is critical for understanding of how this modification influences protein stability, localization, and function. Here we performed a comprehensive characterization of protein acetylation dynamics using mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics through utilization of 13C-glucose or D3-acetate, which are metabolized into acetyl-coA, labeling acetyl groups through subsequent incorporation into proteins. Samples were collected at eight time points to monitor rates and trends of heavy acetyl incorporation. Through this platform, we characterized around 1,000 sites with significantly increasing acetylation trends, which we clustered based on their rates of acetylation. Faster rates were enriched on proteins associated with chromatin and RNA metabolism, while slower rates were more typical on proteins involved with lipid metabolism. Among others, we identified sites catalyzed at faster rates with potential critical roles in protein activation, including the histone acetyltransferase p300 acetylated in its activation loop, which could explain self-acetylation as an important feedback mechanism to regulate acetyltransferases. Overall, our studies highlight the dynamic nature of protein acetylation, and how metabolism plays a central role in this regulation.

A proteome map of primary cultured rat Schwann cells.

Project description:BackgroundSchwann cells (SCs) are the principal glial cells of the peripheral nervous system with a wide range of biological functions. SCs play a key role in peripheral nerve regeneration and are involved in several hereditary peripheral neuropathies. The objective of this study was to gain new insight into the whole protein composition of SCs.ResultsTwo-dimensional liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (2D LC-MS/MS) was performed to identify the protein expressions in primary cultured SCs of rats. We identified a total of 1,232 proteins, which were categorized into 20 functional classes. We also used quantitative real time RT-PCR and Western blot analysis to validate some of proteomics-identified proteins.ConclusionWe showed for the first time the proteome map of SCs. Our data could serve as a reference library to provide basic information for understanding SC biology.

Proteome signatures of inflammatory activated primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

Project description:Proteome profiling is the method of choice to identify marker proteins whose expression may be characteristic for certain diseases. The formation of such marker proteins results from disease-related pathophysiologic processes. In healthy individuals, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) circulate in a quiescent cell state monitoring potential immune-relevant events, but have the competence to respond quickly and efficiently in an inflammatory manner to any invasion of potential pathogens. Activation of these cells is most plausibly accompanied by characteristic proteome alterations. Therefore we investigated untreated and inflammatory activated primary human PBMCs by proteome profiling using a 'top down' 2D-PAGE approach in addition to a 'bottom up' LC-MS/MS-based shotgun approach. Furthermore, we purified primary human T-cells and monocytes and activated them separately. Comparative analysis allowed us to characterize a robust proteome signature including NAMPT and PAI2 which indicates the activation of PBMCs. The T-cell specific inflammation signature included IRF-4, GBP1 and the previously uncharacterized translation product of GBP5; the corresponding monocyte signature included PDCD5, IL1RN and IL1B. The involvement of inflammatory activated PBMCs in certain diseases as well as the responsiveness of these cells to anti-inflammatory drugs may be evaluated by quantification of these marker proteins.

Quantitating cell-cell interaction functions with applications to glioblastoma multiforme cancer cells.

Project description:We report on a method for quantitating the distance dependence of cell-cell interactions. We employ a microchip design that permits a multiplex, quantitative protein assay from statistical numbers of cell pairs, as a function of cell separation, with a 0.15 nL volume microchamber. We interrogate interactions between pairs of model brain cancer cells by assaying for six functional proteins associated with PI3k signaling. At short incubation times, cells do not appear to influence each other, regardless of cell separation. For 6 h incubation times, the cells exert an inhibiting influence on each other at short separations and a predominately activating influence at large separation. Protein-specific cell-cell interaction functions are extracted, and by assuming pairwise additivity of those interactions, the functions are shown to correctly predict the results from three-cell experiments carried out under the identical conditions.

Quantitating the concentration of Py-Im polyamide-fluorescein conjugates in live cells.

Project description:Quantitative fluorescence-based methods have been developed to determine the nuclear concentration of polyamide-fluorescein conjugates in cell culture. Confocal laser scanning microscopy and flow cytometry techniques are utilized to plot calibration curves, from which the nuclear concentration can be interpolated. Upon treatment with polyamide, the concentration in the nucleus of live HeLa cells is calculated to be between 0.1 and 0.5microM, which is significantly lower than the 2microM dosage concentration. In contrast, the observed nuclear concentration in U251 cells is closer to the dosage concentration, indicating a cell line-specific increase in uptake for this class of compounds. Although confocal microscopy and flow cytometry generate disparate values, taken together these experiments suggest that the polyamide concentration inside the cell nucleus is lower than it is outside the cell.

Quantitating drug-target engagement in single cells in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:Quantitation of drug target engagement in single cells has proven to be difficult, often leaving unanswered questions in the drug development process. We found that intracellular target engagement of unlabeled new therapeutics can be quantitated using polarized microscopy combined with competitive binding of matched fluorescent companion imaging probes. We quantitated the dynamics of target engagement of covalent BTK inhibitors, as well as reversible PARP inhibitors, in populations of single cells using a single companion imaging probe for each target. We then determined average in vivo tumor concentrations and found marked population heterogeneity following systemic delivery, revealing single cells with low target occupancy at high average target engagement in vivo.

The RootScope: a simple high-throughput screening system for quantitating gene expression dynamics in plant roots.

Project description:High temperature stress responses are vital for plant survival. The mechanisms that plants use to sense high temperatures are only partially understood and involve multiple sensing and signaling pathways. Here we describe the development of the RootScope, an automated microscopy system for quantitating heat shock responses in plant roots.The promoter of Hsp17.6 was used to build a Hsp17.6p:GFP transcriptional reporter that is induced by heat shock in Arabidopsis. An automated fluorescence microscopy system which enables multiple roots to be imaged in rapid succession was used to quantitate Hsp17.6p:GFP response dynamics. Hsp17.6p:GFP signal increased with temperature increases from 28°C to 37°C. At 40°C the kinetics and localization of the response are markedly different from those at 37°C. This suggests that different mechanisms mediate heat shock responses above and below 37°C. Finally, we demonstrate that Hsp17.6p:GFP expression exhibits wave like dynamics in growing roots.The RootScope system is a simple and powerful platform for investigating the heat shock response in plants.

Analysis of human immunodeficiency virus cytopathicity by using a new method for quantitating viral dynamics in cell culture.

Project description:Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes complex metabolic changes in infected CD4(+) T cells that lead to cell cycle arrest and cell death by necrosis. To study the viral functions responsible for deleterious effects on the host cell, we quantitated the course of HIV type 1 infection in tissue cultures by using flow cytometry for a virally encoded marker protein, heat-stable antigen (HSA). We found that HSA appeared on the surface of the target cells in two phases: passive acquisition due to association and fusion of virions with target cells, followed by active protein expression from transcription of the integrated provirus. The latter event was necessary for decreased target cell viability. We developed a general mathematical model of viral dynamics in vitro in terms of three effective time-dependent rates: those of cell proliferation, infection, and death. Using this model we show that the predominant contribution to the depletion of viable target cells results from direct cell death rather than cell cycle blockade. This allows us to derive accurate bounds on the time-dependent death rates of infected cells. We infer that the death rate of HIV-infected cells is 80 times greater than that of uninfected cells and that the elimination of the vpr protein reduces the death rate by half. Our approach provides a general method for estimating time-dependent death rates that can be applied to study the dynamics of other viruses.

Pulsatile dynamics in the yeast proteome.

Project description:The activation of transcription factors in response to environmental conditions is fundamental to cellular regulation. Recent work has revealed that some transcription factors are activated in stochastic pulses of nuclear localization, rather than at a constant level, even in a constant environment [1-12]. In such cases, signals control the mean activity of the transcription factor by modulating the frequency, duration, or amplitude of these pulses. Although specific pulsatile transcription factors have been identified in diverse cell types, it has remained unclear how prevalent pulsing is within the cell, how variable pulsing behaviors are between genes, and whether pulsing is specific to transcriptional regulators or is employed more broadly. To address these issues, we performed a proteome-wide movie-based screen to systematically identify localization-based pulsing behaviors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The screen examined all genes in a previously developed fluorescent protein fusion library of 4,159 strains [13] in multiple media conditions. This approach revealed stochastic pulsing in ten proteins, all transcription factors. In each case, pulse dynamics were heterogeneous and unsynchronized among cells in clonal populations. Pulsing is the only dynamic localization behavior that we observed, and it tends to occur in pairs of paralogous and redundant proteins. Taken together, these results suggest that pulsatile dynamics play a pervasive role in yeast and may be similarly prevalent in other eukaryotic species.

Proteome profiling of heat shock of human primary breast epithelial cells, a dataset report.

Project description:Exposure to elevated temperatures has a strong effect on cell functions, and is used in clinical practice. Hyperthermia may affect multiple regulatory mechanisms in cells. To understand better the response to hyperthermia of immortalized primary human breast epithelial cells, we performed a proteomics study of these cells cultured at 34°C or 39°C. Twenty-four proteins were shown to be differentially expressed due to hyperthermia. Analysis of these proteins showed the potential involvement of various biological processes in response to hyperthermia, e.g., cell adhesion, cell communication, and cell cycle. Transforming growth factor-?2 (TGF-?2) and heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) were found to be upregulated at 39°C. TGF-?2 was found to affect expression of HSP27, and to have a protective role in hyperthermia-induced cell death. Thus, the dataset described here of hyperthermia-related proteins in human primary breast epithelial cells predicts a number of cellular activities affected by exposure to high temperatures and provides a set of proteins for further studies.
