The Human 2-Cys Peroxiredoxins form Widespread, Cysteine-Dependent- and Isoform-Specific Protein-Protein Interactions.

ABSTRACT: Redox signaling is controlled by the reversible oxidation of cysteine thiols, a post-translational modification triggered by H₂O₂ acting as a second messenger. However, H₂O₂ actually reacts poorly with most cysteine thiols and it is not clear how H₂O₂ discriminates between cysteines to trigger appropriate signaling cascades in the presence of dedicated H₂O₂ scavengers like peroxiredoxins (PRDXs). It was recently suggested that peroxiredoxins act as peroxidases and facilitate H₂O₂-dependent oxidation of redox-regulated proteins via disulfide exchange reactions. It is unknown how the peroxiredoxin-based relay model achieves the selective substrate targeting required for adequate cellular signaling. Using a systematic mass-spectrometry-based approach to identify cysteine-dependent interactors of the five human 2-Cys peroxiredoxins, we show that all five human 2-Cys peroxiredoxins can form disulfide-dependent heterodimers with a large set of proteins. Each isoform displays a preference for a subset of disulfide-dependent binding partners, and we explore isoform-specific properties that might underlie this preference. We provide evidence that peroxiredoxin-based redox relays can proceed via two distinct molecular mechanisms. Altogether, our results support the theory that peroxiredoxins could play a role in providing not only reactivity but also selectivity in the transduction of peroxide signals to generate complex cellular signaling responses.

Reduction of cysteine sulfinic acid in eukaryotic, typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins by sulfiredoxin.

Project description:The eukaryotic, typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are inactivated by hyperoxidation of one of their active-site cysteine residues to cysteine sulfinic acid. This covalent modification is thought to enable hydrogen peroxide-mediated cell signaling and to act as a functional switch between a peroxidase and a high-molecular-weight chaperone. Moreover, hyperoxidation has been implicated in a variety of disease states associated with oxidative stress, including cancer and aging-associated pathologies. A repair enzyme, sulfiredoxin (Srx), reduces the sulfinic acid moiety by using an unusual ATP-dependent mechanism. In this process, the Prx molecule undergoes dramatic structural rearrangements to facilitate repair. Structural, kinetic, mutational, and mass spectrometry-based approaches have been used to dissect the molecular basis for Srx catalysis. The available data support the direct formation of Cys sulfinic acid phosphoryl ester and protein-based thiosulfinate intermediates. This review discusses the role of Srx in the reversal of Prx hyperoxidation, the questions raised concerning the reductant required for human Srx regeneration, and the deglutathionylating activity of Srx. The complex interplay between Prx hyperoxidation, other forms of Prx covalent modification, and the oligomeric state also are discussed.

A role for 2-Cys peroxiredoxins in facilitating cytosolic protein thiol oxidation.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) acts as a signaling messenger by triggering the reversible oxidation of redox-regulated proteins. It remains unclear how proteins can be oxidized by signaling levels of H2O2 in the presence of peroxiredoxins, which are highly efficient peroxide scavengers. Here we show that the rapid formation of disulfide bonds in cytosolic proteins is enabled, rather than competed, by cytosolic 2-Cys peroxiredoxins. Under the conditions tested, the combined deletion or depletion of cytosolic peroxiredoxins broadly frustrated H2O2-dependent protein thiol oxidation, which is the exact opposite of what would be predicted based on the assumption that H2O2 oxidizes proteins directly. We find that peroxiredoxins enable rapid and sensitive protein thiol oxidation by relaying H2O2-derived oxidizing equivalents to other proteins. Although these findings do not rule out the existence of Prx-independent H2O2 signaling mechanisms, they suggest a broader role for peroxiredoxins as sensors and transmitters of H2O2 signals than hitherto recognized.

Typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins--structures, mechanisms and functions.

Project description:Peroxiredoxins are abundant cellular antioxidant proteins that help to control intracellular peroxide levels. These proteins may also function, in part, through an evolved sensitivity of some peroxiredoxins towards peroxide-mediated inactivation in hydrogen peroxide signaling in eukaryotes. This review summarizes recent progress in our understanding of the catalytic and regulatory mechanisms of 'typical 2-Cys' peroxiredoxins and of the biological roles played by these important enzymes in oxidative stress and nonstress-related cellular signaling. New evidence suggests localized peroxide buildup plays a role in nonstress-related signaling.

Novel hyperoxidation resistance motifs in 2-Cys peroxiredoxins.

Project description:2-Cys peroxiredoxins (Prxs) modulate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-mediated cell signaling. At high H2O2 levels, eukaryotic Prxs can be inactivated by hyperoxidation and are classified as sensitive Prxs. In contrast, prokaryotic Prxs are categorized as being resistant to hyperoxidation and lack the GGLG and C-terminal YF motifs present in the sensitive Prxs. Additional molecular determinants that account for the subtle differences in the susceptibility to hyperoxidation remain to be identified. A comparison of a new, 2.15-Å-resolution crystal structure of Prx2 in the oxidized, disulfide-bonded state with the hyperoxidized structure of Prx2 and Prx1 in complex with sulfiredoxin revealed three structural regions that rearrange during catalysis. With these regions in hand, focused sequence analyses were performed comparing sensitive and resistant Prx groups. From this combinatorial approach, we discovered two novel hyperoxidation resistance motifs, motifs A and B, which were validated using mutagenesis of sensitive human Prxs and resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium AhpC. Introduction and removal of these motifs, respectively, resulted in drastic changes in the sensitivity to hyperoxidation with Prx1 becoming 100-fold more resistant to hyperoxidation and AhpC becoming 800-fold more sensitive to hyperoxidation. The increased sensitivity of the latter AhpC variant was also confirmed in vivo These results support the function of motifs A and B as primary drivers for tuning the sensitivity of Prxs to different levels of H2O2, thus enabling the initiation of variable signaling or antioxidant responses in cells.

p53 Forms Redox-Dependent Protein-Protein Interactions through Cysteine 277.

Project description:Reversible cysteine oxidation plays an essential role in redox signaling by reversibly altering protein structure and function. Cysteine oxidation may lead to intra- and intermolecular disulfide formation, and the latter can drastically stabilize protein-protein interactions in a more oxidizing milieu. The activity of the tumor suppressor p53 is regulated at multiple levels, including various post-translational modification (PTM) and protein-protein interactions. In the past few decades, p53 has been shown to be a redox-sensitive protein, and undergoes reversible cysteine oxidation both in vitro and in vivo. It is not clear, however, whether p53 also forms intermolecular disulfides with interacting proteins and whether these redox-dependent interactions contribute to the regulation of p53. In the present study, by combining (co-)immunoprecipitation, quantitative mass spectrometry and Western blot we found that p53 forms disulfide-dependent interactions with several proteins under oxidizing conditions. Cysteine 277 is required for most of the disulfide-dependent interactions of p53, including those with 14-3-3θ and 53BP1. These interaction partners may play a role in fine-tuning p53 activity under oxidizing conditions.

The interactome of 2-Cys peroxiredoxins in Plasmodium falciparum.

Project description:Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are crucially involved in maintaining intracellular H2O2 homeostasis via their peroxidase activity. However, more recently, this class of proteins was found to also transmit oxidizing equivalents to selected downstream proteins, which suggests an important function of Prxs in the regulation of cellular protein redox relays. Using a pull-down assay based on mixed disulfide fishing, we characterized the thiol-dependent interactome of cytosolic Prx1a and mitochondrial Prx1m from the apicomplexan malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum (Pf). Here, 127 cytosolic and 20 mitochondrial proteins that are components of essential cellular processes were found to interact with PfPrx1a and PfPrx1m, respectively. Notably, our data obtained with active-site mutants suggests that reducing equivalents might also be transferred from Prxs to target proteins. Initial functional analyses indicated that the interaction with Prx can strongly impact the activity of target proteins. The results provide initial insights into the interactome of Prxs at the level of a eukaryotic whole cell proteome. Furthermore, they contribute to our understanding of redox regulatory principles and thiol-dependent redox relays of Prxs in subcellular compartments.

Overoxidation of 2-Cys peroxiredoxin in prokaryotes: cyanobacterial 2-Cys peroxiredoxins sensitive to oxidative stress.

Project description:In eukaryotic organisms, hydrogen peroxide has a dual effect; it is potentially toxic for the cell but also has an important signaling activity. According to the previously proposed floodgate hypothesis, the signaling activity of hydrogen peroxide in eukaryotes requires a transient increase in its concentration, which is due to the inactivation by overoxidation of 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (2-Cys Prx). Sensitivity to overoxidation depends on the structural GGLG and YF motifs present in eukaryotic 2-Cys Prxs and is believed to be absent from prokaryotic enzymes, thus representing a paradoxical gain of function exclusive to eukaryotic organisms. Here we show that 2-Cys Prxs from several prokaryotic organisms, including cyanobacteria, contain the GG(L/V/I)G and YF motifs characteristic of sensitive enzymes. In search of the existence of overoxidation-sensitive 2-Cys Prxs in prokaryotes, we have analyzed the sensitivity to overoxidation of 2-Cys Prxs from two cyanobacterial strains, Anabaena sp. PCC7120 and Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. In vitro analysis of wild type and mutant variants of the Anabaena 2-Cys Prx showed that this enzyme is overoxidized at the peroxidatic cysteine residue, thus constituting an exception among prokaryotes. Moreover, the 2-Cys Prx from Anabaena is readily and reversibly overoxidized in vivo in response to high light and hydrogen peroxide, showing higher sensitivity to overoxidation than the Synechocystis enzyme. These cyanobacterial strains have different strategies to cope with hydrogen peroxide. While Synechocystis has low content of less sensitive 2-Cys Prx and high catalase activity, Anabaena contains abundant and sensitive 2-Cys Prx, but low catalase activity, which is remarkably similar to the chloroplast system.

A Proteomic Approach Identifies Isoform-Specific and Nucleotide-Dependent RAS Interactions.

Project description:Active mutations in the RAS genes are found in ∼30% of human cancers. Although thought to have overlapping functions, RAS isoforms show preferential activation in human tumors, which prompted us to employ a comparative and quantitative proteomics approach to generate isoform-specific and nucleotide-dependent interactomes of the four RAS isoforms, KRAS4A, KRAS4B, HRAS, and NRAS. Many isoform-specific interacting proteins were identified, including HRAS-specific CARM1 and CHK1 and KRAS-specific PIP4K2C and IPO7. Comparing the interactomes of WT and constitutively active G12D mutant of RAS isoforms, we identified several potential previously unknown effector proteins of RAS, one of which was recently reported while this article was in preparation, RADIL. These interacting proteins play important roles as knockdown or pharmacological inhibition leads to potent inhibition of cancer cells. The HRAS-specific interacting protein CARM1 plays a role in HRAS-induced senescence, with CARM1 knockdown or inhibition selectively increasing senescence in HRAS-transformed cells but not in KRAS4B-transformed cells. By revealing new isoform-specific and nucleotide-dependent RAS interactors, the study here provides insights to help understand the overlapping functions of the RAS isoforms.
