Fine tuning of spatial arrangement of enzymes in a PCNA-mediated multienzyme complex using a rigid poly-L-proline linker.

ABSTRACT: Inspired by natural multienzyme complexes, many types of artificial multienzyme complexes have recently been constructed. We previously constructed a self-assembled complex of a bacterial cytochrome P450 and its ferredoxin and ferredoxin reductase partners using heterotrimerization of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) from Sulfolobus solfataricus. In this study, we inserted different peptide linkers between ferredoxin and the PCNA subunit, and examined the effect on activity of the self-assembled multienzyme complex. Although the activity was affected by the lengths of both the rigid poly-L-proline-rich linkers and the flexible Gly4-Ser repeating linkers, the poly-L-proline-rich linkers provided the greatest activity enhancement. The optimized poly-L-proline-rich linker enhanced the activity 1.9-fold compared with the GGGGSLVPRGSGGGGS linker used in the previously reported complex, while the Gly4-Ser repeating linkers, (G4S)n (n = 1-6), did not yield higher activity than the maximum activity by the optimized poly-L-proline linker. Both the rigidity/flexibility and length of the peptide linker were found to be important for enhancing the overall activity of the multienzyme complex.

Project description:BackgroundInitiation, amplitude, duration and termination of transforming growth factor ? (TGF?) signaling via Smad proteins is regulated by post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, ubiquitination and acetylation. We previously reported that ADP-ribosylation of Smads by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) negatively influences Smad-mediated transcription. PARP-1 is known to functionally interact with PARP-2 in the nucleus and the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) can remove poly(ADP-ribose) chains from target proteins. Here we aimed at analyzing possible cooperation between PARP-1, PARP-2 and PARG in regulation of TGF? signaling.MethodsA robust cell model of TGF? signaling, i.e. human HaCaT keratinocytes, was used. Endogenous Smad3 ADP-ribosylation and protein complexes between Smads and PARPs were studied using proximity ligation assays and co-immunoprecipitation assays, which were complemented by in vitro ADP-ribosylation assays using recombinant proteins. Real-time RT-PCR analysis of mRNA levels and promoter-reporter assays provided quantitative analysis of gene expression in response to TGF? stimulation and after genetic perturbations of PARP-1/-2 and PARG based on RNA interference.ResultsTGF? signaling rapidly induces nuclear ADP-ribosylation of Smad3 that coincides with a relative enhancement of nuclear complexes of Smads with PARP-1 and PARP-2. Inversely, PARG interacts with Smads and can de-ADP-ribosylate Smad3 in vitro. PARP-1 and PARP-2 also form complexes with each other, and Smads interact and activate auto-ADP-ribosylation of both PARP-1 and PARP-2. PARP-2, similar to PARP-1, negatively regulates specific TGF? target genes (fibronectin, Smad7) and Smad transcriptional responses, and PARG positively regulates these genes. Accordingly, inhibition of TGF?-mediated transcription caused by silencing endogenous PARG expression could be relieved after simultaneous depletion of PARP-1.ConclusionNuclear Smad function is negatively regulated by PARP-1 that is assisted by PARP-2 and positively regulated by PARG during the course of TGF? signaling.

Project description:To create a dataset of PSMs that does not exhibit tryptic bias, we selected PSMs with a uniform distribution of amino acids at the C-terminal peptide positions from two datasets: MassIVE-KB [Wang2018] and PROSPECT [Shouman2022]. The MassIVE-KB dataset contains 30 million PSMs and consists entirely of data generated using trypsin; hence, only a small proportion of the MassIVE-KB peptides do not end in K or R, corresponding to those that appear at the C-terminus of the corresponding protein. The PROSPECT dataset is a collection of 61 million PSMs generated from synthetic peptides. To avoid overrepresentation of some peptides in this dataset, we randomly selected at most 100 PSMs per unique peptide, similar to the processing that was done during the creation of the MassIVE-KB dataset. This pre-selection step reduced the size of the PROSPECT dataset to 12.6 million PSMs. Finally, to create a non-enzymatic dataset containing 1 million peptides, we selected 50,000 PSMs for each canonical amino acid. These PSMs were selected at random from MassIVE-KB, then supplemented as necessary from PROSPECT to obtain the desired count (see Yilmaz et al. [Yilmaz2023] Supplementary Table S1). This dataset contained PSMs from 247,859 unique peptides, which were randomly split into training, validation and test sets in the ratio 80/10/10. FTP directory contains the mgf files corresponding to train, validation and test splits. [Wang2018] M. Wang, J. Wang, J. Carver, B. Pullman, S. Won Cha, N.
