Proteome-Wide Analysis of Lysine 2-Hydroxyisobutyrylation in Aspergillus niger in Peanuts.

ABSTRACT: Aspergillus niger is a very destructive pathogen causing severe peanut root rot, especially in the seeding stage of peanuts (Arachis hypogaea), and often leading to the death of the plant. Protein lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) is a newly detected post-translational modification identified in several species. In this study, we identified 5041 Khib sites on 1,453 modified proteins in A. niger. Compared with five other species, A. niger has conserved and novel proteins. Bioinformatics analysis showed that Khib proteins are widely distributed in A. niger and are involved in many biological processes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses revealed that Khib proteins were significantly enriched in many cellular compartments and pathways, such as ribosomes and proteasome subunits. A total of 223 Khib proteins were part of the PPI network, thus, suggesting that Khib proteins are associated with a large range of protein interactions and diverse pathways in the life processes of A. niger. Several identified proteins are involved in pathogenesis regulation. Our research provides the first comprehensive report of Khib and an extensive database for potential functional studies on Khib proteins in this economically important fungus.

Project description:BackgroundLysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) is a novel and conserved post-translational modification (PTM). Frankliniella occidentalis are economically important agricultural pests globally and also notorious for vectoring destructive plant viruses. To better study the disease transmission mechanism of F. occidentalis, it is necessary to conduct in-depth analysis of it. So far, no Khib modification of insects has been reported.ResultsIn this study, a proteome-wide analysis of Khib modifications in F. occidentalis was analyzed for the first time through the combination of high performance liquid chromatography fractionation technology and 2-hydroxyisobutyrylated peptide enrichment and other advanced technologies, 4093 Khib sites were identified on 1125 modified proteins. Bioinformatics and functional enrichment analyses showed that Khib-modified proteins were significantly enriched in many cell compartments and pathways, especially related to various cellular components and biological processes, and were more concentrated in ribosomes and proteasome subunits, involved in energy metabolism, protein synthesis and degradation, compared to the other nine species including Japonica rice, Homo sapiens, P. patens, Botrytis, Ustilaginoidea virens, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, T. gondii, C. albicans, and F. oxysporum. And Khib sites on virus-interacting insect proteins were discovered for the first time, such as cyclophilin and endoCP-GN.ConclusionsAfter three repeated experiments, we found a total of 4093 Khib sites on 1125 proteins. These modified proteins are mainly concentrated in ribosomes and proteasome subunits, and are widely involved in a variety of critical biological activities and metabolic processes of F. occidentalis. In addition, for the first time, Khib modification sites are found on the proteome of F. occidentalis, and these sites could be acted as for the virus interaction, including cyclophilin and endoCP-GN. The global map of 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation in thrips is an invaluable resource to better understand the biological processes of thrips and provide new means for disease control and mitigation of pest damage to crops.

Project description:Candida albicans is the most common human fungal pathogen, causing diseases ranging from mucosal to systemic infections for both immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals. Lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation is a highly conserved posttranslational modification found in a wide variety of organisms. In this study, we surveyed the biological impact of 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation on lysine residuals (Khib) in C. albicans Using an antibody enrichment approach along with the traditional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method, we analyzed the pattern of Khib-modified proteins and sites in one wild-type strain of C. albicans We identified 1,438 Khib-modified proteins with 6,659 modified sites in this strain, and a more detailed bioinformatics analysis indicated that the Khib-modified proteins are involved in a wide range of cellular functions with diverse subcellular locations. Functional enrichment analysis featured several prominent functional pathways, including ribosome, biosynthesis of antibiotics, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, biosynthesis of amino acids and carbon metabolism, of which the ribosome pathway is the most affected pathway. Even compared with the reported numbers of lysine acetylation (Kac) and succinylation (Ksuc) sites, the numbers of Khib-modified sites on ribosomal proteins remained the highest for C. albicans These bioinformatic results suggest that 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation may play an indispensable role in the regulation of the ribosomal biogenesis and protein translation. Findings in this study may provide new insights for studying posttranslational modification (PTM)-associated mechanisms in fungal development and pathogenicity.IMPORTANCEC. albicans is one of the most commonly reported fungal pathogens in mucosal and systemic infections. A better understanding of its growth habits and metabolic processes in the host should help improve defense strategies. The newly discovered protein posttranslational modification (PTM) on histones is one epigenetic mechanism which has been linked to many pathogenic events, including cancers. The types of PTM and their pathogenic roles in C. albicans are still somewhat poorly understood, even though studies of C. albicans based on acetylation inhibitors have shed some light on their function, and it seems that PTMs regulate pathogenic adhesion factors. Here, we quantified and analyzed the occurrence of lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) in C. albicans The Khib-modified proteins are enriched with respect to carbon metabolism, ribosomal biogenesis, and protein translation in C. albicans.
