F1F0-ATP Synthase Inhibitory Factor 1 in the Normal Pancreas and in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: Effects on Bioenergetics, Invasion and Proliferation.

ABSTRACT: F1F0-ATP synthase inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) inhibits the reverse mode of F1F0-ATP synthase, and therefore protects cellular ATP content at the expense of accelerated loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (??m). There is considerable variability in IF1 expression and its influence on bioenergetics between different cell types. High levels of IF1 in a number of cancers have been linked to increased glycolysis, resistance to cell death, increased migration and proliferation. However, neither the expression nor role of IF1 in the normal pancreas or in pancreatic cancer has been characterized. In this study, we found that pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients express higher levels of IF1 in cancerous cells than in pancreatic acinar cells (PACs). PDAC cell lines have a higher IF1 content and IF1/ATP synthase ratio than PACs. The observed differences are consistent with the ability of the respective cell types to maintain ??m and ATP levels in conditions of chemical hypoxia. Acinar cells and PDAC cells preferentially express different IF1 isoforms. Both knockdown and knockout of IF1 in the PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cell line modified cellular bioenergetics and decreased migration, invasion and proliferation suggesting the putative importance of IF1 for PDAC growth and metastasis.

Project description:The F-ATP synthase, consisting of F1 and FO motors connected by a central rotor and the stators, is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing the majority of ATP in all organisms. The F1 (αβ)3 ring stator contains three catalytic sites. Single-molecule F1 rotation studies revealed that ATP hydrolysis at each catalytic site (0°) precedes a power-stroke that rotates subunit-γ 120° with angular velocities that vary with rotational position. Catalytic site conformations vary relative to subunit-γ position (βE, empty; βD, ADP bound; βT, ATP-bound). During a power stroke, βE binds ATP (0°-60°) and βD releases ADP (60°-120°). Årrhenius analysis of the power stroke revealed that elastic energy powers rotation via unwinding the γ-subunit coiled-coil. Energy from ATP binding at 34° closes βE upon subunit-γ to drive rotation to 120° and forcing the subunit-γ to exchange its tether from βE to βD, which changes catalytic site conformations. In F1FO, the membrane-bound FO complex contains a ring of c-subunits that is attached to subunit-γ. This c-ring rotates relative to the subunit-a stator in response to transmembrane proton flow driven by a pH gradient, which drives subunit-γ rotation in the opposite direction to force ATP synthesis in F1. Single-molecule studies of F1FO embedded in lipid bilayer nanodisks showed that the c-ring transiently stopped F1-ATPase-driven rotation every 36° (at each c-subunit in the c10-ring of E. coli F1FO) and was able to rotate 11° in the direction of ATP synthesis. Protonation and deprotonation of the conserved carboxyl group on each c-subunit is facilitated by separate groups of subunit-a residues, which were determined to have different pKa's. Mutations of any of any residue from either group changed both pKa values, which changed the occurrence of the 11° rotation proportionately. This supports a Grotthuss mechanism for proton translocation and indicates that proton translocation occurs during the 11° steps. This is consistent with a mechanism in which each 36° of rotation the c-ring during ATP synthesis involves a proton translocation-dependent 11° rotation of the c-ring, followed by a 25° rotation driven by electrostatic interaction of the negatively charged unprotonated carboxyl group to the positively charged essential arginine in subunit-a.

Project description:In this study, the ATP synthase of Ignicoccus hospitalis was purified, characterized, and structurally compared to the respective enzymes of the other Ignicoccus species, to shed light on energy conservation in this unique group of archaea. The crenarchaeal genus Ignicoccus comprises three described species, i.e., I. hospitalis and Ignicoccus islandicus from hot marine sediments near Iceland and Ignicoccus pacificus from a hydrothermal vent system in the Pacific Ocean. This genus is unique among all archaea due to the unusual cell envelope, consisting of two membranes that enclose a large intermembrane compartment (IMC). I. hospitalis is the best studied member of this genus, mainly because it is the only known host for the potentially parasitic archaeon Nanoarchaeum equitansI. hospitalis grows chemolithoautotrophically, and its sole energy-yielding reaction is the reduction of elemental sulfur with molecular hydrogen, forming large amounts of hydrogen sulfide. This reaction generates an electrochemical gradient, which is used by the ATP synthase, located in the outer cellular membrane, to generate ATP inside the IMC. The genome of I. hospitalis encodes nine subunits of an A-type ATP synthase, which we could identify in the purified complex. Although the maximal in vitro activity of the I. hospitalis enzyme was measured around pH 6, the optimal stability of the A1AO complex seemed to be at pH 9. Interestingly, the soluble A1 subcomplexes of the different Ignicoccus species exhibited significant differences in their apparent molecular masses in native electrophoresis, although their behaviors in gel filtration and chromatography-mass spectrometry were very similar.IMPORTANCE The Crenarchaeota represent one of the major phyla within the Archaea domain. This study describes the successful purification of a crenarchaeal ATP synthase. To date, all information about A-type ATP synthases is from euryarchaeal enzymes. The fact that it has not been possible to purify this enzyme complex from a member of the Crenarchaeota until now points to significant differences in stability, possibly caused by structural alterations. Furthermore, the study subject I. hospitalis has a particular importance among crenarchaeotes, since it is the only known host of N. equitans The energy metabolism in this system is still poorly understood, and our results can help elucidate the unique relationship between these two microbes.
