Deep mutational scanning of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 functional landscape.

ABSTRACT: The serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a key regulator of the fibrinolytic system, inhibiting the serine proteases tissue- and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (tPA and uPA, respectively). Missense variants render PAI-1 non-functional through misfolding, leading to its turnover as a protease substrate, or to a more rapid transition to the latent/inactive state. Deep mutational scanning was performed to evaluate the impact of amino acid sequence variation on PAI-1 inhibition of uPA using an M13 filamentous phage display system. Error prone PCR was used to construct a mutagenized PAI-1 library encompassing ~ 70% of potential single amino acid substitutions. The relative effects of 27% of all possible missense variants on PAI-1 inhibition of uPA were determined using high-throughput DNA sequencing. 826 missense variants demonstrated conserved inhibitory activity while 1137 resulted in loss of PAI-1 inhibitory function. The least evolutionarily conserved regions of PAI-1 were also identified as being the most tolerant of missense mutations. The results of this screen confirm previous low-throughput mutational studies, including those of the reactive center loop. These data provide a powerful resource for explaining structure-function relationships for PAI-1 and for the interpretation of human genomic sequence variants.

Project description:Due to controversial evidence in the literature pertaining to the activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in platelets, we examined the effects of residual platelets present in plasma (a potential pre-analytical variable) on various plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1-related assays. Blood samples were collected from 151 individuals and centrifuged at 352 and 1500 g to obtain plasma with varying numbers of platelet. In a follow-up study, blood samples were collected from an additional 23 individuals, from whom platelet-poor (2000 g), platelet-containing (352 g) and platelet-rich plasma (200 g) were prepared and analysed as fresh-frozen and after five defrost-refreeze cycles (to determine the contribution of in vitro platelet degradation). Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 activity, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen, tissue plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 complex, plasma clot lysis time, β-thromboglobulin and plasma platelet count were analysed. Platelet α-granule release (plasma β-thromboglobulin) showed a significant association with plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen levels but weak associations with plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 activity and a functional marker of fibrinolysis, clot lysis time. Upon dividing the study population into quartiles based on β-thromboglobulin levels, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen increased significantly across the quartiles while plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 activity and clot lysis time tended to increase in the 4th quartile only. In the follow-up study, plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen was also significantly influenced by platelet count in a concentration-dependent manner. Plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen levels increased further after complete platelet degradation. Residual platelets in plasma significantly influence plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen levels mainly through release of latent plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 with limited effects on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 activity, tissue plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 complex or plasma clot lysis time. Platelets may however also have functional effects on plasma fibrinolytic potential in the presence of high platelet counts, such as in platelet-rich plasma.
