Nonenzymatic Protein Acetylation Detected by NAPPA Protein Arrays.

ABSTRACT: Acetylation is a post-translational modification that occurs on thousands of proteins located in many cellular organelles. This process mediates many protein functions and modulates diverse biological processes. In mammalian cells, where acetyl-CoA is the primary acetyl donor, acetylation in the mitochondria is thought to occur by chemical means due to the relatively high concentration of acetyl-CoA located in this organelle. In contrast, acetylation outside of the mitochondria is thought to be mediated predominantly by acetyltransferase enzymes. Here, we address the possibility that nonenzymatic chemical acetylation outside of the mitochondria may be more common than previously appreciated. We employed the Nucleic Acid Programmable Protein Array platform to perform an unbiased screen for human proteins that undergo chemical acetylation, which resulted in the identification of a multitude of proteins with diverse functions and cellular localization. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that basic residues typically precede the acetylated lysine in the -7 to -3 position, and we show by mutagenesis that these basic residues contribute to chemical acetylation capacity. We propose that these basic residues lower the pKa of the substrate lysine for efficient chemical acetylation. Many of the identified proteins reside outside of the mitochondria and have been previously demonstrated to be acetylated in vivo. As such, our studies demonstrate that chemical acetylation occurs more broadly throughout the eukaryotic cell than previously appreciated and suggests that this post-translational protein modification may have more diverse roles in protein function and pathway regulation.

Site-specific reactivity of nonenzymatic lysine acetylation.

Project description:Protein acetylation of lysine ?-amino groups is abundant in cells, particularly within mitochondria. The contribution of enzyme-catalyzed and nonenzymatic acetylation in mitochondria remains unresolved. Here, we utilize a newly developed approach to measure site-specific, nonenzymatic acetylation rates for 90 sites in eight native purified proteins. Lysine reactivity (as second-order rate constants) with acetyl-phosphate and acetyl-CoA ranged over 3 orders of magnitude, and higher chemical reactivity tracked with likelihood of dynamic modification in vivo, providing evidence that enzyme-catalyzed acylation might not be necessary to explain the prevalence of acetylation in mitochondria. Structural analysis revealed that many highly reactive sites exist within clusters of basic residues, whereas lysines that show low reactivity are engaged in strong attractive electrostatic interactions with acidic residues. Lysine clusters are predicted to be high-affinity substrates of mitochondrial deacetylase SIRT3 both in vitro and in vivo. Our analysis describing rate determination of lysine acetylation is directly applicable to investigate targeted and proteome-wide acetylation, whether or not the reaction is enzyme catalyzed.

Analysis of acetylation stoichiometry suggests that SIRT3 repairs nonenzymatic acetylation lesions.

Project description:Acetylation is frequently detected on mitochondrial enzymes, and the sirtuin deacetylase SIRT3 is thought to regulate metabolism by deacetylating mitochondrial proteins. However, the stoichiometry of acetylation has not been studied and is important for understanding whether SIRT3 regulates or suppresses acetylation. Using quantitative mass spectrometry, we measured acetylation stoichiometry in mouse liver tissue and found that SIRT3 suppressed acetylation to a very low stoichiometry at its target sites. By examining acetylation changes in the liver, heart, brain, and brown adipose tissue of fasted mice, we found that SIRT3-targeted sites were mostly unaffected by fasting, a dietary manipulation that is thought to regulate metabolism through SIRT3-dependent deacetylation. Globally increased mitochondrial acetylation in fasted liver tissue, higher stoichiometry at mitochondrial acetylation sites, and greater sensitivity of SIRT3-targeted sites to chemical acetylation in vitro and fasting-induced acetylation in vivo, suggest a nonenzymatic mechanism of acetylation. Our data indicate that most mitochondrial acetylation occurs as a low-level nonenzymatic protein lesion and that SIRT3 functions as a protein repair factor that removes acetylation lesions from lysine residues.

Site-specific and kinetic characterization of enzymatic and nonenzymatic protein acetylation in bacteria.

Project description:Reversible Nε-lysine acetylation has emerging as an important metabolic regulatory mechanism in microorganisms. Herein, we systematically investigated the site-specific and kinetic characterization of enzymatic (lysine acetyltransferase) and nonenzymatic acetylation (AcP-dependent or Acyl-CoA-dependent), as well as their different effect on activity of metabolic enzyme (AMP-forming acetyl-CoA synthetase, Acs). It was found that Bacillus subtilis acetyl-CoA synthetase (BsAcsA) can be acetylated in vitro either catalytically by lysine acetyltransferase BsAcuA and Ac-CoA (at low concentration), or nonenzymatically by Ac-CoA or AcP (at high concentration). Two distinct mechanisms show preference for different lysine acetylation site (enzymatic acetylation for K549 and nonenzymatic acetylation for K524), and reveal different dynamics of relative acetylation changes at these lysine sites. The results demonstrated that lysine residues on the same protein exhibit different acetylation reactivity with acetyl-phosphate and acetyl-CoA, which was determined by surface accessibility, three-dimensional microenvironment, and pKa value of lysine. Acetyl-CoA synthetase is inactivated by AcuA-catalyzed acetylation, but not by nonenzymatic acetylation.

Nonenzymatic acetylation of ubiquitin Lys side chains is modulated by their neighboring residues.

Project description:Nonenzymatic acetylation of Lys side chains (Lys-SCs) by various in vivo reactive molecules has been suggested to play novel regulatory roles. Ubiquitin (UB) has seven Lys residues that are utilized for synthesis of specific poly-UB chains. To understand the nature of these Lys-SC modifications, the chemical acetylation rate and pKa and Hill coefficient of each UB-Lys-SC were measured. Mutagenesis studies combined with the determination of activation energy indicated that specific neighboring residues of the Lys-SCs have a potential catalytic activity during nonenzymatic acetylation. Based on the shared chemistry between nonenzymatic Lys acetylation and ubiquitylation, the characterized chemical properties of the UB-Lys-SCs could be a reference for deciphering both mechanisms. Our NMR approaches could be useful for studying general nonenzymatic Lys acylations of various proteins.

Biochemical Basis of E. coli Topoisomerase I Relaxation Activity Reduction by Nonenzymatic Lysine Acetylation.

Project description:The relaxation activity of E. coli topoisomerase I is required for regulation of global and local DNA supercoiling. The in vivo topoisomerase I enzyme activity is sensitive to lysine acetylation?deacetylation and can affect DNA supercoiling and growth as a result. Nonenzymatic lysine acetylation by acetyl phosphate has been shown to reduce the relaxation activity of E. coli topoisomerase I. In this work, the biochemical consequence of topoisomerase I modification by acetyl phosphate with enzymatic assays was studied. Results showed that noncovalent binding to DNA and DNA cleavage by the enzyme were reduced as a result of the acetylation, with greater effect on DNA cleavage. Four lysine acetylation sites were identified using bottom-up proteomics: Lys13, Lys45, Lys346, and Lys488. The Lys13 residue modified by acetyl phosphate has not been reported previously as a lysine acetylation site for E. coli topoisomerase I. We discuss the potential biochemical consequence of lysine acetylation at this strictly conserved lysine and other lysine residues on the enzyme based on available genetic and structural information.

Classification of nonenzymatic homologues of protein kinases.

Project description:Protein Kinase-Like Non-kinases (PKLNKs), which are closely related to protein kinases, lack the crucial catalytic aspartate in the catalytic loop, and hence cannot function as protein kinase, have been analysed. Using various sensitive sequence analysis methods, we have recognized 82 PKLNKs from four higher eukaryotic organisms, namely, Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, and Drosophila melanogaster. On the basis of their domain combination and function, PKLNKs have been classified mainly into four categories: (1) Ligand binding PKLNKs, (2) PKLNKs with extracellular protein-protein interaction domain, (3) PKLNKs involved in dimerization, and (4) PKLNKs with cytoplasmic protein-protein interaction module. While members of the first two classes of PKLNKs have transmembrane domain tethered to the PKLNK domain, members of the other two classes of PKLNKs are cytoplasmic in nature. The current classification scheme hopes to provide a convenient framework to classify the PKLNKs from other eukaryotes which would be helpful in deciphering their roles in cellular processes.

The E. coli sirtuin CobB shows no preference for enzymatic and nonenzymatic lysine acetylation substrate sites.

Project description:N(?) -lysine acetylation is an abundant posttranslational modification of thousands of proteins involved in diverse cellular processes. In the model bacterium Escherichia coli, the ?-amino group of a lysine residue can be acetylated either catalytically by acetyl-coenzyme A (acCoA) and lysine acetyltransferases, or nonenzymatically by acetyl phosphate (acP). It is well known that catalytic acCoA-dependent N(?) -lysine acetylation can be reversed by deacetylases. Here, we provide genetic, mass spectrometric, structural and immunological evidence that CobB, a deacetylase of the sirtuin family of NAD(+) -dependent deacetylases, can reverse acetylation regardless of acetyl donor or acetylation mechanism. We analyzed 69 lysines on 51 proteins that we had previously detected as robustly, reproducibly, and significantly more acetylated in a cobB mutant than in its wild-type parent. Functional and pathway enrichment analyses supported the hypothesis that CobB regulates protein function in diverse and often essential cellular processes, most notably translation. Combined mass spectrometry, bioinformatics, and protein structural data provided evidence that the accessibility and three-dimensional microenvironment of the target acetyllysine help determine CobB specificity. Finally, we provide evidence that CobB is the predominate deacetylase in E. coli.

Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus detected in human lung cancer tissue arrays.

Project description:BackgroundAdenocarcinoma is the most common type of non-small cell lung cancer and is frequently observed in non-smoking patients. Adenocarcinoma in-situ (formerly referred to as bronchioloalveolar carcinoma) is a subset of lung adenocarcinoma characterized by growth along alveolar septae without evidence of stromal, vascular, or pleural invasion, that disproportionately affects never-smokers, women, and Asians. Adenocarcinoma in-situ is morphologically and histologically similar to a contagious lung neoplasm of sheep called ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA). OPA is caused by infection with the exogenous betaretrovirus, jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV), whose envelope protein (Env) is a potent oncogene. Several studies have reported that a proportion of human lung adenocarcinomas are immunopositive for an antigen related to the Gag protein of JSRV, however other groups have been unable to verify these observations by PCR.MethodsHere we examine human lung cancer tissue arrays (TA) for evidence of JSRV Env protein and DNA by immunohistochemical staining and PCR, respectively.ResultsOur results reveal that a subset of human lung cancers express an antigen that reacts with a JSRV Env-specific monoclonal antibody in immunohistochemistry and that exogenous JSRV-like env and gag sequences can be amplified from TA tumor samples, albeit inefficiently.ConclusionsWhile a causative role has not been established, these data suggest that a JSRV-like virus might infect humans. With next generation sequencing approaches, a JSRV-like virus in human lung cancers may be identified which could have profound implications for prevention, diagnosis and therapy.
