PDI-Regulated Disulfide Bond Formation in Protein Folding and Biomolecular Assembly.

ABSTRACT: Disulfide bonds play a pivotal role in maintaining the natural structures of proteins to ensure their performance of normal biological functions. Moreover, biological molecular assembly, such as the gluten network, is also largely dependent on the intermolecular crosslinking via disulfide bonds. In eukaryotes, the formation and rearrangement of most intra- and intermolecular disulfide bonds in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are mediated by protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs), which consist of multiple thioredoxin-like domains. These domains assist correct folding of proteins, as well as effectively prevent the aggregation of misfolded ones. Protein misfolding often leads to the formation of pathological protein aggregations that cause many diseases. On the other hand, glutenin aggregation and subsequent crosslinking are required for the formation of a rheologically dominating gluten network. Herein, the mechanism of PDI-regulated disulfide bond formation is important for understanding not only protein folding and associated diseases, but also the formation of functional biomolecular assembly. This review systematically illustrated the process of human protein disulfide isomerase (hPDI) mediated disulfide bond formation and complemented this with the current mechanism of wheat protein disulfide isomerase (wPDI) catalyzed formation of gluten networks.

Project description:The protein secretory pathway must maintain homoeostasis while producing a wide assortment of proteins in different conditions. It is also used extensively to produce many useful proteins in biotechnology. As such, secretory pathway dysfunction can be highly detrimental to the cell, resulting in the molecular basis for many human diseases, and can drastically inhibit product titers in biochemical production. Because the secretory pathway is a highly-integrated, multi-organelle system, dysfunction can happen at many levels and dissecting the root cause can be challenging. To better understand some of these dysfunctions, we measured multiple systems-level states of the cell (physiology, transcriptome, metabolism) while secreting a small protein (insulin precursor) or a large protein (?-amylase). This was carried out in the presence and absence of HAC1, a key transcription factor in maintaining secretory homeostasis. Clear trends in cellular stress were apparent across multiple data resulting from our perturbations. In particular, processes involving (1) degradation of protein / recycling amino acids, (2) overall transcription/translation repression, and (3) oxidative stress. Apparent runaway oxidative radical production was explained by a thermodynamic model that we put forward for disulfide formation in the endoplasmic reticulum. This model predicts that balancing the relative rates of protein folding and disulfide bond formation are key to easing oxidative stress. These predictions have direct implications in how to engineer a broad range of recombinant proteins for secretion and provide potential hypotheses for the root causes of several secretory-associated diseases. Yeast strains were constructed that produce and secrete (a) IP or (b) ?-amylase and were compared to yeast strains containing (c) an empty vector in both wild-type and HAC1 deletion backgrounds. These strains are named WN (WT with empty vector), WI (WT secreting IP), WA (WT secreting ?-amylase), dN (?hac1 with empty vector), dI (?hac1 secreting IP), and dA (?hac1 secreting ?-amylase). Strains were characterized in batch fermentation and samples were taken in mid-exponential phase. Triplicate fermentations were carried out for each strain.
