Herpesviruses and the Unfolded Protein Response.

ABSTRACT: Herpesviruses usurp cellular stress responses to promote viral replication and avoid immune surveillance. The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a conserved stress response that is activated when the protein load in the ER exceeds folding capacity and misfolded proteins accumulate. The UPR aims to restore protein homeostasis through translational and transcriptional reprogramming; if homeostasis cannot be restored, the UPR switches from "helper" to "executioner", triggering apoptosis. It is thought that the burst of herpesvirus glycoprotein synthesis during lytic replication causes ER stress, and that these viruses may have evolved mechanisms to manage UPR signaling to create an optimal niche for replication. The past decade has seen considerable progress in understanding how herpesviruses reprogram the UPR. Here we provide an overview of the molecular events of UPR activation, signaling and transcriptional outputs, and highlight key evidence that herpesviruses hijack the UPR to aid infection.

Unfolded Protein Response

Project description:To dissect the requirements of membrane protein degradation from the ER, we expressed the mouse major histocompatibility complex class I heavy chain H-2K(b) in yeast. Like other proteins degraded from the ER, unassembled H-2K(b) heavy chains are not transported to the Golgi but are degraded in a proteasome-dependent manner. The overexpression of H-2K(b) heavy chains induces the unfolded protein response (UPR). In yeast mutants unable to mount the UPR, H-2K(b) heavy chains are greatly stabilized. This defect in degradation is suppressed by the expression of the active form of Hac1p, the transcription factor that upregulates UPR-induced genes. These results indicate that induction of the UPR is required for the degradation of protein substrates from the ER.

The Toxoplasma unfolded protein response

Project description:To characterize the nature of the unfolded protein response in this Toxoplasma, we carried out microarray analyses to measure the changes in the transcriptome and in translational control during ER stress. Total RNA or RNA fractionated into monosomes or polysomes were purified from parasites treated with DMSO or tunicamycin for 1 hour. RNA was processed for microarray analysis using a ToxoGeneChip.

Unfolded protein response in myelin disorders.

Project description:Activation of the unfolded protein response in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress preserves cell viability and function under stressful conditions. Nevertheless, persistent, unresolvable activation of the unfolded protein response can trigger apoptosis to eliminate stressed cells. Recent studies show that the unfolded protein response plays an important role in the pathogenesis of various disorders of myelin, including multiples sclerosis, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, vanishing white matter disease, spinal cord injury, tuberous sclerosis complex, and hypoxia-induced perinatal white matter injury. In this review we summarize the current literature on the unfolded protein response and the evidence for its role in the pathogenesis of myelin disorders.

Hac1p control of unfolded protein response

Project description:All samples are of the genotype listed in the title (e.g. W303, delta-hac1, etc.). Samples treated with DTT were treated for 60 min with 6 mM DTT. Samples with 'dT' in the title were concurrently shifted from 23°C to 37°C; otherwise, samples were grown at 30°C. All array data is from two independent experiments, with data listed as two files designated "A" and "B" , except for the "ADH1pro DTT" expt, which was performed once. The data sets were filtered with NOMAD to include only "high quality" data. Keywords: other

The Unfolded Protein Response in Breast Cancer.

Project description:In 2018, in the US alone, it is estimated that 268,670 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and that 41,400 will die from it. Since breast cancers often become resistant to therapies, and certain breast cancers lack therapeutic targets, new approaches are urgently required. A cell-stress response pathway, the unfolded protein response (UPR), has emerged as a promising target for the development of novel breast cancer treatments. This pathway is activated in response to a disturbance in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis but has diverse physiological and disease-specific functions. In breast cancer, UPR signalling promotes a malignant phenotype and can confer tumours with resistance to widely used therapies. Here, we review several roles for UPR signalling in breast cancer, highlighting UPR-mediated therapy resistance and the potential for targeting the UPR alone or in combination with existing therapies.

Druggable sensors of the unfolded protein response.

Project description:The inability of cells to properly fold, modify and assemble secretory and transmembrane proteins leads to accumulation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Under these conditions of 'ER stress', cell survival depends on homeostatic benefits from an intracellular signaling pathway called the unfolded protein response (UPR). When activated, the UPR induces transcriptional and translational programs that restore ER homeostasis. However, under high-level or chronic ER stress, these adaptive changes ultimately become overshadowed by alternative 'terminal UPR' signals that actively commit cells to degeneration, culminating in programmed cell death. Chronic ER stress and maladaptive UPR signaling are implicated in the etiology and pathogenesis of myriad human diseases. Naturally, this has generated widespread interest in targeting key nodal components of the UPR as therapeutic strategies. Here we summarize the state of this field with emphasis placed on two of the master UPR regulators, PERK and IRE1, which are both capable of being drugged with small molecules.

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response—synchronizing genomes.

Project description:Maintenance of the mitochondrial proteome is performed primarily by chaperones, which fold and assemble proteins, and by proteases, which degrade excess damaged proteins. Upon various types of mitochondrial stress, triggered genetically or pharmacologically, dysfunction of the proteome is sensed and communicated to the nucleus, where an extensive transcriptional program, aimed to repair the damage, is activated. This feedback loop, termed the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR(mt)), synchronizes the activity of the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes and as such ensures the quality of the mitochondrial proteome. Here we review the recent advances in the UPR(mt) field and discuss its induction, signaling, communication with the other mitochondrial and major cellular regulatory pathways, as well as its potential implications on health and lifespan.

SirT3 regulates the mitochondrial unfolded protein response.

Project description:The mitochondria of cancer cells are characterized by elevated oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Such an elevation in ROS levels contributes to mitochondrial reprogramming and malignant transformation. However, high levels of ROS can cause irreversible damage to proteins, leading to their misfolding, mitochondrial stress, and ultimately cell death. Therefore, mechanisms to overcome mitochondrial stress are needed. The unfolded protein response (UPR) triggered by accumulation of misfolded proteins in the mitochondria (UPR(mt)) has been reported recently. So far, the UPR(mt) has been reported to involve the activation of CHOP and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα). The current study describes a novel role of the mitochondrial deacetylase SirT3 in the UPR(mt). Our data reveal that SirT3 acts to orchestrate two pathways, the antioxidant machinery and mitophagy. Inhibition of SirT3 in cells undergoing proteotoxic stress severely impairs the mitochondrial network and results in cellular death. These observations suggest that SirT3 acts to sort moderately stressed from irreversibly damaged organelles. Since SirT3 is reported to act as a tumor suppressor during transformation, our findings reveal a dual role of SirT3. This novel role of SirT3 in established tumors represents an essential mechanism of adaptation of cancer cells to proteotoxic and mitochondrial stress.
