The cerebellum contains a circadian clock, generating internal temporal signals. The daily oscillations of cerebellar proteins were investigated in mice using a large-scale two-dimensional difference in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). Analysis of 2D-DIGE gels highlighted the rhythmic variation in the intensity of 27/588 protein spots (5%) over 24 h based on cosinor regression. Notably, the rhythmic expression of most abundant cerebellar proteins was clustered in two main phases (i.e., midday and ...[more]

Project description:The cerebellum contains a circadian clock, generating internal temporal signals. The daily oscillations of cerebellar proteins were investigated here in mice using large-scale two-dimensional differences in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). Analysis of 2D-DIGE gels highlighted the rhythmic variation in the intensity of 27/588 protein spots (5%) over 24-h based on cosinor regression. Notably, rhythmic expression of most abundant cerebellar proteins was clustered in two main phases (i.e., midday and midnight), leading to bimodal distribution. Only 6 proteins identified here to be rhythmic in the cerebellum are also known to oscillate in the suprachiasmatic nuclei, including 2 proteins involved in synapse activity (Synapsin 2 (Syn2) and vesicle-fusing ATPase (Nsf)), 2 others participating in carbohydrate metabolism (triosephosphate isomerase (Tpi1) and alpha-enolase (Eno1)), and Glutamine synthetase (Glul), as well as Tubulin alpha (Tuba4a). Most oscillating cerebellar proteins were not previously identified in circadian proteomic analyses of any tissue. Strikingly, daily accumulation of mitochondrial proteins was clustered to the mid-resting phase, as previously observed for distinct mitochondrial proteins in the liver. This study highlights extensive rhythmic aspects of the cerebellar proteome.

Project description:A general overview of the protein sequence set for the mouse transcriptome produced during the FANTOM2 sequencing project is presented here. We applied different algorithms to characterize protein sequences derived from a nonredundant representative protein set (RPS) and a variant protein set (VPS) of the mouse transcriptome. The functional characterization and assignment of Gene Ontology terms was done by analysis of the proteome using InterPro. The Superfamily database analyses gave a detailed structural classification according to SCOP and provide additional evidence for the functional characterization of the proteome data. The MDS database analysis revealed new domains which are not presented in existing protein domain databases. Thus the transcriptome gives us a unique source of data for the detection of new functional groups. The data obtained for the RPS and VPS sets facilitated the comparison of different patterns of protein expression. A comparison of other existing mouse and human protein sequence sets (e.g., the International Protein Index) demonstrates the common patterns in mammalian proteomes. The analysis of the membrane organization within the transcriptome of multiple eukaryotes provides valuable statistics about the distribution of secretory and transmembrane proteins

Project description:The cerebellum participates in motor coordination as well as in numerous cerebral processes, including temporal discrimination. Animals can predict daily timing of food availability, as manifested by food-anticipatory activity under restricted feeding. By studying ex vivo clock gene expression by in situ hybridization and recording in vitro Per1-luciferase bioluminescence, we report that the cerebellum contains a circadian oscillator sensitive to feeding cues (i.e., whose clock gene oscillations are shifted in response to restricted feeding). Food-anticipatory activity was markedly reduced in mice injected intracerebroventricularly with an immunotoxin that depletes Purkinje cells (i.e., OX7-saporin). Mice bearing the hotfoot mutation (i.e., Grid2(ho/ho)) have impaired cerebellar circuitry and mild ataxic phenotype. Grid2(ho/ho) mice fed ad libitum showed regular behavioral rhythms and day-night variations of clock gene expression in the hypothalamus and cerebellum. When challenged with restricted feeding, however, Grid2(ho/ho) mice did not show any food-anticipatory rhythms, nor timed feeding-induced changes in cerebellar clock gene expression. In hypothalamic arcuate and dorsomedial nuclei, however, shifts in Per1 expression in response to restricted feeding were similar in cerebellar mutant and wild-type mice. Furthermore, plasma corticosterone and metabolites before mealtime did not differ between cerebellar mutant and wild-type mice. Together, these data define a role for the cerebellum in the circadian timing network and indicate that the cerebellar oscillator is required for anticipation of mealtime.

Project description:Epithelial cells and differentiated fiber cells represent distinct compartments in the ocular lens. While previous studies have revealed proteins that are preferentially expressed in epithelial vs. fiber cells, a comprehensive proteomics library comparing the molecular compositions of epithelial vs. fiber cells is essential for understanding lens formation, function, disease and regenerative potential, and for efficient differentiation of pluripotent stem cells for modeling of lens development and pathology in vitro. To compare protein compositions between the lens epithelium and fibers, we employed tandem mass spectrometry (2D-LC/MS) analysis of microdissected mouse P0.5 lenses. Functional classifications of the top 525 identified proteins into gene ontology categories by molecular processes and subcellular localizations, were adapted for the lens. Expression levels of both epithelial and fiber proteomes were compared with whole lens proteome and mRNA levels using E14.5, E16.5, E18.5, and P0.5 RNA-Seq data sets. During this developmental time window, multiple complex biosynthetic and catabolic processes generate the molecular and structural foundation for lens transparency. As expected, crystallins showed a high correlation between their mRNA and protein levels. Comprehensive data analysis confirmed and/or predicted roles for transcription factors (TFs), RNA-binding proteins (e.g. Carhsp1), translational apparatus including ribosomal heterogeneity and initiation factors, microtubules, cytoskeletal [e.g. non-muscle myosin IIA heavy chain (Myh9) and βB2-spectrin (Sptbn2)] and membrane proteins in lens formation and maturation. Our data highlighted many proteins with unknown functions in the lens that were preferentially enriched in epithelium or fibers, setting the stage for future studies to further dissect the roles of these proteins in fiber cell differentiation vs. epithelial cell maintenance. In conclusion, the present proteomic datasets represent the first mouse lens epithelium and fiber cell proteomes, establish comparative analyses of protein and RNA-Seq data, and characterize the major proteome remodeling required to form the mature lens fiber cells.

Project description:Advances in systems biology have allowed for global analyses of mRNA and protein expression, but large-scale studies of protein dynamics and turnover have not been conducted in vivo. Protein turnover is an important metabolic and regulatory mechanism in establishing proteome homeostasis, impacting many physiological and pathological processes. Here, we have used organism-wide isotopic labeling to measure the turnover rates of approximately 2,500 proteins in multiple mouse tissues, spanning four orders of magnitude. Through comparison of the brain with the liver and blood, we show that within the respective tissues, proteins performing similar functions often have similar turnover rates. Proteins in the brain have significantly slower turnover (average lifetime of 9.0 d) compared with those of the liver (3.0 d) and blood (3.5 d). Within some organelles (such as mitochondria), proteins have a narrow range of lifetimes, suggesting a synchronized turnover mechanism. Protein subunits within complexes of variable composition have a wide range of lifetimes, whereas those within well-defined complexes turn over in a coordinated manner. Together, the data represent the most comprehensive in vivo analysis of mammalian proteome turnover to date. The developed methodology can be adapted to assess in vivo proteome homeostasis in any model organism that will tolerate a labeled diet and may be particularly useful in the analysis of neurodegenerative diseases in vivo.

Project description:Cerebella from wild-type and cGKI knockout mice, on 129/Sv background, were subjected to protein digestion using trypsin o/n and chemically labeled with dimethyl labeling. After labeling the samples were mixed and subjected to both strong cation exchange and phosphopeptide enrichment. The SCX fractions and the enriched phosphopeptides were then analyzed on an Orbitrap mass spectrometer. Data analysis: For each raw data file recorded by the mass spectrometer, peak lists were generated using Proteome Discoverer (version 1.3, Thermo Scientific, Bremen, Germany) using a standardized workflow. Peak lists, generated in Proteome Discoverer, were searched against a Swiss-Prot database (version 2.3.02, taxonomy Mus musculus, 32402 protein entries) supplemented with frequently observed contaminants, using Mascot (version 2.3.02 Matrix Science, London, UK). The database search was performed by using the following paramenters: a mass tolerance of 50 ppm for the precursor masses and +/-0.6 Da for CID/ETD fragment ions and +/-0.05 Da for HCD fragments. Enzyme specificity was set to Trypsin with 2 missed cleavages allowed. Carbarmidomethylation of cysteines was set as fixed modification, oxidation of methionine and dimethyl labeling (L, I, H) of lysine residues and N termini, and phosphorylation (S, T, Y) (for the phosphoproteome analysis) were used as variable modifications. Percolator was used to filter the PSMs for <1% false discovery-rate. Phosphorylation sites were localized by applying phosphoRS (pRS) (v2.0). Triplex dimethyl labeling was used as quantification method, with a mass precision for the 2 ppm for consecutive precursor mass scan. A retention time tolerance of 0.5 min was used to account effect of deuterium on retention time. To further filter for high quality data we used the following parameters: high confidence peptide spectrum matches, minimal Mascot score of 20, minimal peptide length of 6 and only unique rank 1 peptide. For the phosphopeptides analysis, the search rank 1 peptide was added to the previous filters. For the identification and quantitation of the proteins, only the unique peptides were considered.

Project description:The presence of a phagocytic peak of photoreceptor outer segments by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) one or 2 h after the onset of light has been reported for several diurnal and nocturnal species. This peak in phagocytic activity also persists under constant lighting conditions (i.e., constant light or dark) thus demonstrating that the timing of this peak is driven by a circadian clock. The aim of this study was to investigate the change in RPE whole transcriptome at two different circadian times (CT; 1 h before (CT23) and 1 h after (CT1) subjective light onset). C57BL/6J male mice were maintained in constant dark conditions for three days and euthanized under red light (<1 lux) at CT23 and CT1. RPE was isolated from whole eyes for RNA library preparation and sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq4000 platform. 14,083 mouse RPE transcripts were detected in common between CT23 and CT1. 12,005 were protein coding transcripts and 2078 were non-protein coding transcripts. 2421 protein coding transcripts were significantly upregulated whereas only 3 transcripts were significantly downregulated and 12 non-protein coding transcripts were significantly upregulated and 31 non-protein coding transcripts were significantly downregulated at CT1 when compared to CT23 (p < 0.05, fold change ≥ ±2.0). Of the protein coding transcripts, most of them were characterized as: enzymes, kinases, and transcriptional regulators with a large majority of activity in the cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasma membrane. Non-protein coding transcripts included biotypes such as long-non coding RNAs and pseudogenes. Gene ontology analysis and ingenuity pathway analysis revealed that differentially expressed transcripts were associated with integrin signaling, oxidative phosphorylation, protein phosphorylation, and actin cytoskeleton remodeling suggesting that these previously identified phagocytic pathways are under circadian control. Our analysis identified new pathways (e.g., increased mitochondrial respiration via increased oxidative phosphorylation) that may be involved in the circadian control of phagocytic activity. In addition, our dataset suggests a possible regulatory role for the identified non-protein coding transcripts in mediating the complex function of RPE phagocytosis. Finally, our results also indicate, as seen in other tissues, about 20% of the whole RPE transcriptome may be under circadian clock regulation.

Project description:Measurement of clock gene expression has recently provided evidence that the cerebellum, like the master clock in the SCN, contains a circadian oscillator. The cerebellar oscillator is involved in anticipation of mealtime and possibly resides in Purkinje cells. However, the rhythmic gene expression is likely transduced into a circadian cerebellar output signal to exert an effective control of neuronal brain circuits that are responsible for feeding behavior. Using electrophysiological recordings from acute and organotypic cerebellar slices, we tested the hypothesis whether Purkinje cells transmit a circadian modulated signal to their targets in the brain. Extracellular recordings from brain slices revealed the typical discharge pattern previously described in vivo in single cell recordings showing basically a tonic or a trimodal-like firing pattern. However, in acute sagittal cerebellar slices the average spike rate of randomly selected Purkinje cells did not exhibit significant circadian variations, irrespective of their specific firing pattern. Also, frequency and amplitude of spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents and the amplitude of GABA- and glutamate-evoked currents did not vary with circadian time. Long-term recordings using multielectrode arrays (MEA) allowed to monitor neuronal activity at multiple sites in organotypic cerebellar slices for several days to weeks. With this recording technique we observed oscillations of the firing rate of cerebellar neurons, presumably of Purkinje cells, with a period of about 24 hours which were stable for periods up to three days. The daily renewal of culture medium could induce circadian oscillations of the firing rate of Purkinje cells, a feature that is compatible with the behavior of slave oscillators. However, from the present results it appears that the circadian expression of cerebellar clock genes exerts only a weak influence on the electrical output of cerebellar neurons.

Project description:The circadian clock is an evolutionary system that allows organisms to anticipate and thus adapt to daily changes in the environment. In mammals, the circadian clock is found in virtually every tissue regulating rhythms of metabolism and physiology. While a lot of studies have focused in how circadian clocks regulate gene expression little is known about daily control of protein abundance. Here we applied state of the art mass spectrometry in combination with quantitative proteomics to investigate global circadian oscillations of the proteome in the mouse liver. We found that approximately 6% of the liver proteins are cycling daily and interestingly the majority of these oscillations diverge from the behavior of their transcripts. Our data indicates that post-transcriptional mechanisms play an essential role in shaping the phase of rhythmic proteins downstream of transcription regulation to ultimately drive rhythms of metabolism. Moreover, the contribution of post-transcriptional regulation seems to differ among distinct metabolic pathways. Overall we not only found circadian oscillations in the abundance of proteins involved in liver specific metabolic pathways but also in essential cellular processes. Data processing: Raw MS files were processed with MaxQuant (version. 1.1.1.9), a freely available software suite. Peak list files were searched by the ANDROMEDA a search engine, incorporated into the MaxQuant framework, against the IPI-mouse (version 3.68) containing both forward and reversed protein sequences. Initial maximum precursor and fragment mass deviations were set to 7 ppm and 0.5 Da, respectively, but MaxQuant achieved sub-ppm mass accuracy for the majority of peptide precursors. The search included variable modifications for oxidation of methionine, protein N-terminal acetylation and carbamidomethylation as fixed modification. Peptides with at least six amino acids were considered for identification specifying as enzyme LysC allowing N-terminal cleavage to proline. The false discovery rate, determined by searching a reverse database, was set at 0.01 for both peptides and proteins. Identification across different replicates and adjacent fractions was achieved by enabling matching between runs option in MaxQuant within a time window of 2 minutes. Quantification of SILAC pairs was performed by MaxQuant with standard settings using a minimum ratio count of 2.

Project description:Aging is associated with a general decline of cognitive functions, and it is widely accepted that this decline results from changes in the expression of proteins involved in regulation of synaptic plasticity. However, several lines of evidence have accumulated that suggest that the impaired function of the aged brain may be related to significant alterations in the energy metabolism. In the current study, we employed the label-free "Total protein approach" (TPA) method to focus on the similarities and differences in energy metabolism proteomes of young (1-month-old) and aged (22-month-old) murine brains. We quantified over 7000 proteins in each of the following three analyzed brain structures: the hippocampus, the cerebral cortex and the cerebellum. To the best of our knowledge, this is the most extensive quantitative proteomic description of energy metabolism pathways during the physiological aging of mice. The analysis demonstrates that aging does not significantly affect the abundance of total proteins in the studied brain structures, however, the levels of proteins constituting energy metabolism pathways differ significantly between young and aged mice.
