The "PepSAVI-MS" Pipeline for Natural Product Bioactive Peptide Discovery.

ABSTRACT: The recent increase in extensively drug-resistant bacterial pathogens and the associated increase of morbidity and mortality demonstrate the immediate need for new antibiotic backbones with novel mechanisms of action. Here, we report the development of the PepSAVI-MS pipeline for bioactive peptide discovery. This highly versatile platform employs mass spectrometry and statistics to identify bioactive peptide targets from complex biological samples. We validate the use of this platform through the successful identification of known bioactive peptides from a botanical species, Viola odorata. Using this pipeline, we have widened the known antimicrobial spectrum for V. odorata cyclotides, including antibacterial activity of cycloviolacin O2 against A. baumannii. We further demonstrate the broad applicability of the platform through the identification of novel anticancer activities for cycloviolacins by their cytotoxicity against ovarian, breast, and prostate cancer cell lines.

Bioactive natural product peptide discovery in fungal secretoms using PepSAVI-MS

Project description:Fungal secondary metabolites represent a rich and largely untapped source for bioactive molecules, including peptides with substantial structural diversity and pharmacological potential. As methods proceed to take a deep dive into fungal genomes, complimentary methods to identify bioactive components are required to keep pace with the expanding fungal repertoire. We developed PepSAVI-MS to expedite the search for natural product bioactive peptides and herein demonstrate proof-of-principle applicability of the pipeline for the discovery of bioactive peptides from fungal secretomes via identification of the antifungal killer toxin KP4 from Ustilago maydis P4. This work opens the door to investigating microbial secretomes with a new lens, and could have broad applications across human health, agriculture, and food safety.

PepSAVI-MS Reveals a Proline-rich Antimicrobial Peptide in <i>Amaranthus tricolor</i>.

Project description:Traditional medicinal plants are a rich source of antimicrobials; however, the bioactive peptide constituents of most ethnobotanical species remain largely unexplored. Herein, PepSAVI-MS, a mass spectrometry-based peptidomics pipeline, was implemented for antimicrobial peptide (AMP) discovery in the medicinal plant Amaranthus tricolor. This investigation revealed a novel 1.7 kDa AMP with strong activity against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, deemed Atr-AMP1. Initial efforts to determine the sequence of Atr-AMP1 utilized chemical derivatization and enzymatic digestion to provide information about specific residues and post-translational modifications. EThcD (electron-transfer/higher-energy collision dissociation) produced extensive backbone fragmentation and facilitated de novo sequencing, the results of which were consistent with orthogonal characterization experiments. Additionally, multistage HCD (higher-energy collisional dissociation) facilitated discrimination between isobaric leucine and isoleucine. These results revealed a positively charged proline-rich peptide present in a heterogeneous population of multiple peptidoforms, possessing several post-translational modifications including a disulfide bond, methionine oxidation, and proline hydroxylation. Additional bioactivity screening of a simplified fraction containing Atr-AMP1 revealed activity against Staphylococcus aureus LAC, demonstrating activity against both a Gram-negative and a Gram-positive bacterial species unlike many known short chain proline-rich antimicrobial peptides.

Exploring bioactive peptides from bacterial secretomes using PepSAVI-MS: identification and characterization of Bac-21 from Enterococcus faecalis pPD1.

Project description:As current methods for antibiotic drug discovery are being outpaced by the rise of antimicrobial resistance, new methods and innovative technologies are necessary to replenish our dwindling arsenal of antimicrobial agents. To this end, we developed the PepSAVI-MS pipeline to expedite the search for natural product bioactive peptides. Herein we demonstrate expansion of PepSAVI-MS for the discovery of bacterial-sourced bioactive peptides through identification of the bacteriocin Bac-21 from Enterococcus faecalis pPD1. Minor pipeline modifications including implementation of bacteria-infused agar diffusion assays and optional digestion of peptide libraries highlight the versatility and wide adaptability of the PepSAVI-MS pipeline. Additionally, we have experimentally validated the primary protein sequence of the active, mature Bac-21 peptide for the first time and have confirmed its identity with respect to primary sequence and post-translational processing. Successful application of PepSAVI-MS to bacterial secretomes as demonstrated herein establishes proof-of-principle for use in novel microbial bioactive peptide discovery.

Minimizing Taxonomic and Natural Product Redundancy in Microbial Libraries Using MALDI-TOF MS and the Bioinformatics Pipeline IDBac.

Project description:Libraries of microorganisms have been a cornerstone of drug discovery efforts since the mid-1950s, but strain duplication in some libraries has resulted in unwanted natural product redundancy. In the current study, we implemented a workflow that minimizes both the natural product overlap and the total number of bacterial isolates in a library. Using a collection expedition to Iceland as an example, we purified every distinct bacterial colony off isolation plates derived from 86 environmental samples. We employed our mass spectrometry (MS)-based IDBac workflow on these isolates to form groups of taxa based on protein MS fingerprints (3-15 kDa) and further distinguished taxa subgroups based on their degree of overlap within corresponding natural product spectra (0.2-2 kDa). This informed the decision to create a library of 301 isolates spanning 54 genera. This process required only 25 h of data acquisition and 2 h of analysis. In a separate experiment, we reduced the size of an existing library based on the degree of metabolic overlap observed in natural product MS spectra of bacterial colonies (from 833 to 233 isolates, a 72.0% size reduction). Overall, our pipeline allows for a significant reduction in costs associated with library generation and minimizes natural product redundancy entering into downstream biological screening efforts.

Ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide natural product discovery in the genomic era.

Project description:In the past 15 years, the cost of sequencing a genome has plummeted. Consequently, the number of sequenced bacterial genomes has exponentially increased, and methods for natural product discovery have evolved rapidly to take advantage of the wealth of genomic data. This review highlights applications of genome mining software to compare and organize large-scale data sets and methods for identifying unique biosynthetic pathways amongst the thousands of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP) gene clusters. We also discuss a small number of the many RiPPs discovered in the years 2014-2016.

Chromatographic editing enhances natural product discovery.

Project description:Fungi are known for their diverse biologically active secondary metabolites, compounds that have provided the basis for many landmark therapeutics in the last century. Due to ease of collection and culturing, the existing fungal chemical literature is vast, and fungal natural product isolation can often be hindered by the numerous nuisance and pan-toxic compounds that many strains produce. Dereplication efforts, aimed at identifying such compounds early in the purification, are imperative to reduce time and expense of rediscovery of known metabolites. The common practice of dereplication then deprioritizes samples containing nuisance compounds and often excludes them from the drug discovery workflow. We have implemented a two-step dereplication protocol that uses tandem mass spectrometry to identify nuisance compounds, followed by mass-directed chromatographic editing to remove them while leaving the remaining 'edited extract' in the drug discovery workflow. This two-step strategy facilitates rapid and more accurate evaluation of the chemical potential of high-throughput extract screening campaigns by consideration of bioactivity beyond that triggered by known metabolites. We demonstrate the isolation of a new natural product antibiotic from an otherwise toxic extract using the technique.

NPvis: An Interactive Visualizer of Peptidic Natural Product-MS/MS Matches.

Project description:Peptidic natural products (PNPs) represent a medically important class of secondary metabolites that includes antibiotics, anti-inflammatory and antitumor agents. Advances in tandem mass spectra (MS/MS) acquisition and in silico database search methods have enabled high-throughput PNP discovery. However, the resulting spectra annotations are often error-prone and their validation remains a bottleneck. Here, we present NPvis, a visualizer suitable for the evaluation of PNP-MS/MS matches. The tool interactively maps annotated spectrum peaks to the corresponding PNP fragments and allows researchers to assess the match correctness. NPvis accounts for the wide chemical diversity of PNPs that prevents the use of the existing proteomics visualizers. Moreover, NPvis works even if the exact chemical structure of the matching PNP is unknown. The tool is available online and as a standalone application. We hope that it will benefit the community by streamlining PNP data analysis and validation.
