14-3-3: A Case Study in PPI Modulation.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, targeting the complex network of protein?protein interactions (PPIs) has been identified as a promising drug-discovery approach to develop new therapeutic strategies. 14-3-3 is a family of eukaryotic conserved regulatory proteins which are of high interest as potential targets for pharmacological intervention in human diseases, such as cancer and neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders. This viewpoint is built on the “hub” nature of the 14-3-3 proteins, binding to several hundred identified partners, consequently implicating them in a multitude of different cellular mechanisms. In this review, we provide an overview of the structural and biological features of 14-3-3 and the modulation of 14-3-3 PPIs for discovering small molecular inhibitors and stabilizers of 14-3-3 PPIs.

Exploration of a 14-3-3 PPI Pocket by Covalent Fragments as Stabilizers.

Project description:The systematic discovery of functional fragments binding to the composite interface of protein complexes is a first critical step for the development of orthosteric stabilizers of protein-protein interactions (PPIs). We have previously shown that disulfide trapping successfully yielded covalent stabilizers for the PPI of 14-3-3 with the estrogen receptor ERα. Here we provide an assessment of the composite PPI target pocket and the molecular characteristics of various fragments binding to a specific subpocket. Evaluating structure-activity relationships highlights the basic principles for PPI stabilization by these covalent fragments that engage a relatively large and exposed binding pocket at the protein/peptide interface with a "molecular glue" mode of action.

IFNa primes cancer cells for Fusicoccin-induced cell death via 14-3-3 PPI stabilization

Project description:The natural product family of the fusicoccanes (FCs) has been shown to display anti-cancer activity, especially when combined with established therapeutic agents. FCs stabilize 14-3-3 protein-protein interactions (PPIs). Here, we tested combinations of a small library of FCs with interferon α (IFNα) on different cancer cell lines and report a proteomics approach to identify the specific 14-3-3 PPIs that are induced by IFNα and stabilized by FCs in OVCAR-3 cells. Among the identified 14-3-3 target proteins are THEMIS2, receptor interacting protein kinase 2 (RIPK2), EIF2AK2, and several members of the LDB1 complex. Biophysical and structural biology studies confirm these 14-3-3 PPIs as physical targets of FC stabilization, and transcriptome as well as pathway analyses suggest possible explanations for the observed synergistic effect of IFNα/FC treatment on cancer cells. This study elucidates the polypharmacological effects of FCs in cancer cells and identifies potential targets from the vast interactome of 14-3-3s for therapeutic intervention in oncology.

Evaluating homophily in networks via HONTO (HOmophily Network TOol): a case study of chromosomal interactions in human PPI networks.

Project description:SummaryIt has been observed in different kinds of networks, such as social or biological ones, a typical behavior inspired by the general principle 'similarity breeds connections'. These networks are defined as homophilic as nodes belonging to the same class preferentially interact with each other. In this work, we present HONTO (HOmophily Network TOol), a user-friendly open-source Python3 package designed to evaluate and analyze homophily in complex networks. The tool takes in input from the network along with a partition of its nodes into classes and yields a matrix whose entries are the homophily/heterophily z-score values. To complement the analysis, the tool also provides z-score values of nodes that do not interact with any other node of the same class. Homophily/heterophily z-scores values are presented as a heatmap allowing a visual at-a-glance interpretation of results.Availability and implementationTool's source code is available at https://github.com/cumbof/honto under the MIT license, installable as a package from PyPI (pip install honto) and conda-forge (conda install -c conda-forge honto), and has a wrapper for the Galaxy platform available on the official Galaxy ToolShed (Blankenberg et al., 2014) at https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/fabio/honto.

Case-control study of the etiology of infant diarrheal disease in 14 districts in Madagascar.

Project description:BackgroundAcute diarrhea is a major cause of childhood morbidity and mortality worldwide. Its microbiological causes and clinico-epidemiological aspects were examined during the rainy seasons from 2008 to 2009 in 14 districts in Madagascar.MethodsStool specimens of 2196 children with acute diarrhea and 496 healthy children were collected in a community setting. Intestinal parasites were diagnosed by microscopy and bacteria by culturing methods. Rota-, astro and adenoviruses were identified using commercially available ELISA kits and rotaviruses were confirmed using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).ResultsIntestinal microorganisms were isolated from 54.6% of diarrheal patients and 45.9% of healthy subjects (p = <0.01). The most common pathogens in diarrheic patients were intestinal parasites (36.5%). Campylobacter spp. and Rotavirus were detected in 9.7% and 6.7% of diarrheic patients. The detection rates of Entamoeba histolytica, Trichomonas intestinalis and Giardia lamblia were much greater in diarrheal patients than in non diarrheal subjects (odds ratios of 5.1, 3.2, 1.7 respectively). The abundance of other enteropathogens among the non diarrheal group may indicate prolonged excretion or limited pathogenicity.ConclusionIn developing countries, where the lack of laboratory capacities is great, cross sectional studies of enteropathogens and their spatial distribution, including diarrheal and non diarrheal subjects, are interesting tools in order to advise regional policies on treatment and diarrheic patient management.

Integrating PPI datasets with the PPI data from biomedical literature for protein complex detection.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Protein complexes are important for understanding principles of cellular organization and function. High-throughput experimental techniques have produced a large amount of protein-protein interactions (PPIs), making it possible to predict protein complexes from protein-protein interaction networks. On the other hand, the rapidly growing biomedical literature provides a significantly large and readily available source of interaction data, which can be integrated into the protein network for better complex detection performance. METHODS: We present an approach of integrating PPI datasets with the PPI data from biomedical literature for protein complex detection. The approach applies a sophisticated natural language processing system, PPIExtractor, to extract PPI data from biomedical literature. These data are then integrated into the PPI datasets for complex detection. RESULTS: The experimental results of the state-of-the-art complex detection method, ClusterONE, on five yeast PPI datasets verify our method's effectiveness: compared with the original PPI datasets, the average improvements of 3.976 and 5.416 percentage units in the maximum matching ratio (MMR) are achieved on the new networks using the MIPS and SGD gold standards, respectively. In addition, our approach also proves to be effective for three other complex detection algorithms proposed in recent years, i.e. CMC, COACH and RRW. CONCLUSIONS: The rapidly growing biomedical literature provides a significantly large, readily available and relatively accurate source of interaction data, which can be integrated into the protein network for better protein complex detection performance.
