Identification of lysine-lactylated substrates in gastric cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Cancer cells tend to utilize aerobic glycolysis to generate energy and metabolites; the end product of aerobic glycolysis is lactate, which promotes lysine lactylation (Kla). Kla is a newly discovered histone post-translational modification (PTM) that plays important roles in regulating gene expression. However, Kla in non-histone mammalian proteins is unclear. Here, a comprehensive analysis of lactylated proteins in gastric cancer AGS cells was conducted. There were 2375 Kla sites found in 1014 proteins. Interestingly, KEGG pathway analysis showed that these proteins were significantly enriched in spliceosome function. In addition, Kla was more abundant in gastric tumors than in adjacent tissues, and high levels of Kla in gastric tumors were associated with poor prognosis. These results suggest that Kla could be a prognostic marker in gastric cancer. This lysine lactylome analysis in gastric cancer cells, the first of its kind, provides a valuable foundation for further studies of Kla.

Identification of lysine-lactylated substrates in gastric cancer cells

Project description:Lysine lactylation is a newly discovered post-translational modification (PTM) in histones and plays important roles in regulating gene expression. However, Kla in non-histone proteins in mammal is still unclear. Here, an analysis of lactylated proteins in gastric cancer AGS cells by using LC-MS/MS was conducted, and 2375 Kla sites on 1014 proteins were identified.

Identification of nonhistone substrates of the lysine methyltransferase PRDM9.

Project description:Lysine methylation is a dynamic, posttranslational mark that regulates the function of histone and nonhistone proteins. Many of the enzymes that mediate lysine methylation, known as lysine methyltransferases (KMTs), were originally identified to modify histone proteins but have also been discovered to methylate nonhistone proteins. In this work, we investigate the substrate selectivity of the KMT PRDM9 to identify both potential histone and nonhistone substrates. Though normally expressed in germ cells, PRDM9 is significantly upregulated across many cancer types. The methyltransferase activity of PRDM9 is essential for double-strand break formation during meiotic recombination. PRDM9 has been reported to methylate histone H3 at lysine residues 4 and 36; however, PRDM9 KMT activity had not previously been evaluated on nonhistone proteins. Using lysine-oriented peptide libraries to screen potential substrates of PRDM9, we determined that PRDM9 preferentially methylates peptide sequences not found in any histone protein. We confirmed PRDM9 selectivity through in vitro KMT reactions using peptides with substitutions at critical positions. A multisite λ-dynamics computational analysis provided a structural rationale for the observed PRDM9 selectivity. The substrate selectivity profile was then used to identify putative nonhistone substrates, which were tested by peptide spot array, and a subset was further validated at the protein level by in vitro KMT assays on recombinant proteins. Finally, one of the nonhistone substrates, CTNNBL1, was found to be methylated by PRDM9 in cells.

A proteomic approach for the identification of novel lysine methyltransferase substrates.

Project description:Signaling via protein lysine methylation has been proposed to play a central role in the regulation of many physiologic and pathologic programs. In contrast to other post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, proteome-wide approaches to investigate lysine methylation networks do not exist.In the current study, we used the ProtoArray® platform, containing over 9,500 human proteins, and developed and optimized a system for proteome-wide identification of novel methylation events catalyzed by the protein lysine methyltransferase (PKMT) SETD6. This enzyme had previously been shown to methylate the transcription factor RelA, but it was not known whether SETD6 had other substrates. By using two independent detection approaches, we identified novel candidate substrates for SETD6, and verified that all targets tested in vitro and in cells were genuine substrates.We describe a novel proteome-wide methodology for the identification of new PKMT substrates. This technological advance may lead to a better understanding of the enzymatic activity and substrate specificity of the large number (more than 50) PKMTs present in the human proteome, most of which are uncharacterized.

Identification of lysine succinylation substrates and the succinylation regulatory enzyme CobB in Escherichia coli.

Project description:Lysine succinylation is a newly identified protein post-translational modification pathway present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. However, succinylation substrates and regulatory enzyme(s) remain largely unknown, hindering the biological study of this modification. Here we report the identification of 2,580 bacterial lysine succinylation sites in 670 proteins and 2,803 lysine acetylation (Kac) sites in 782 proteins, representing the first lysine succinylation dataset and the largest Kac dataset in wild-type E. coli. We quantified dynamic changes of the lysine succinylation and Kac substrates in response to high glucose. Our data showed that high-glucose conditions led to more lysine-succinylated proteins and enhanced the abundance of succinyllysine peptides more significantly than Kac peptides, suggesting that glucose has a more profound effect on succinylation than on acetylation. We further identified CobB, a known Sir2-like bacterial lysine deacetylase, as the first prokaryotic desuccinylation enzyme. The identification of bacterial CobB as a bifunctional enzyme with lysine desuccinylation and deacetylation activities suggests that the eukaryotic Kac-regulatory enzymes may have enzymatic activities on various lysine acylations with very different structures. In addition, it is highly likely that lysine succinylation could have unique and more profound regulatory roles in cellular metabolism relative to lysine acetylation under some physiological conditions.

Identification of lysine acetyltransferase p300 substrates using 4-pentynoyl-coenzyme A and bioorthogonal proteomics.

Project description:Proteomic studies have identified a plethora of lysine acetylated proteins in eukaryotes and bacteria. Determining the individual lysine acetyltransferases responsible for each protein acetylation mark is crucial for elucidating the underlying regulatory mechanisms, but has been challenging due to limited biochemical methods. Here, we describe the application of a bioorthogonal chemical proteomics method to profile and identify substrates of individual lysine acetyltransferases. Addition of 4-pentynoyl-coenzyme A, an alkynyl chemical reporter for protein acetylation, to cell extracts, together with purified lysine acetyltransferase p300, enabled the fluorescent profiling and identification of protein substrates via Cu(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. We identified several known protein substrates of the acetyltransferase p300 as well as the lysine residues that were modified. Interestingly, several new candidate p300 substrates and their sites of acetylation were also discovered using this approach. Our results demonstrate that bioorthogonal chemical proteomics allows the rapid substrate identification of individual protein acetyltransferases in vitro.

Identification and Characterization of CXCR4-Positive Gastric Cancer Stem Cells.

Project description:Diffuse-type solid tumors are often composed of a high proportion of rarely proliferating (i.e., dormant) cancer cells, strongly indicating the involvement of cancer stem cells (CSCs) Although diffuse-type gastric cancer (GC) patients have a poor prognosis due to high-frequent development of peritoneal dissemination (PD), it is limited knowledge that the PD-associated CSCs and efficacy of CSC-targeting therapy in diffuse-type GC. In this study, we established highly metastatic GC cell lines by in vivo selection designed for the enrichment of PD-associated GC cells. By microarray analysis, we found C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) can be a novel marker for highly metastatic CSCs, since CXCR4-positive cells can grow anchorage-independently, initiate tumors in mice, be resistant to cytotoxic drug, and produce differentiated daughter cells. In clinical samples, these CXCR4-positive cells were found from not only late metastasis stage (accumulated ascites) but also earlier stage (peritoneal washings). Moreover, treatment with transforming growth factor-β enhanced the anti-cancer effect of docetaxel via induction of cell differentiation/asymmetric cell division of the CXCR4-positive gastric CSCs even in a dormant state. Therefore, differentiation inducers hold promise for obtaining the maximum therapeutic outcome from currently available anti-cancer drugs through re-cycling of CSCs.

Proteomic Identification of Cysteine Cathepsin Substrates Shed from the Surface of Cancer Cells.

Project description:Extracellular cysteine cathepsins are known to drive cancer progression, but besides degradation of extracellular matrix proteins little is known about their physiological substrates and thus the molecular mechanisms they deploy. One of the major mechanisms used by other extracellular proteases to facilitate cancer progression is proteolytic release of the extracellular domains of transmembrane proteins or ectodomain shedding. Here we show using a mass spectrometry-based approach that cathepsins L and S act as sheddases and cleave extracellular domains of CAM adhesion proteins and transmembrane receptors from the surface of cancer cells. In cathepsin S-deficient mouse pancreatic cancers, processing of these cathepsin substrates is highly reduced, pointing to an essential role of cathepsins in extracellular shedding. In addition to influencing cell migration and invasion, shedding of surface proteins by extracellular cathepsins impacts intracellular signaling as demonstrated for regulation of Ras GTPase activity, thereby providing a putative mechanistic link between extracellular cathepsin activity and cancer progression. The MS data is available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD002192.

A chemical method for labeling lysine methyltransferase substrates.

Project description:Several protein lysine methyltransferases (PKMTs) modify histones to regulate chromatin-dependent cellular processes, such as transcription, DNA replication and DNA damage repair. PKMTs are likely to have many additional substrates in addition to histones, but relatively few nonhistone substrates have been characterized, and the substrate specificity for many PKMTs has yet to be defined. Thus, new unbiased methods are needed to find PKMT substrates. Here, we describe a chemical biology approach for unbiased, proteome-wide identification of novel PKMT substrates. Our strategy makes use of an alkyne-bearing S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) analogue, which is accepted by the PKMT, SETDB1, as a cofactor, resulting in the enzymatic attachment of a terminal alkyne to its substrate. Such labeled proteins can then be treated with azide-functionalized probes to ligate affinity handles or fluorophores to the PKMT substrates. As a proof-of-concept, we have used SETDB1 to transfer the alkyne moiety from the SAM analogue onto a recombinant histone H3 substrate. We anticipate that this chemical method will find broad use in epigenetics to enable unbiased searches for new PKMT substrates by using recombinant enzymes and unnatural SAM cofactors to label and purify many substrates simultaneously from complex organelle or cell extracts.

Evaluation of Jumonji C lysine demethylase substrate preference to guide identification of <i>in vitro</i> substrates.

Project description:Within the realm of lysine methylation, the discovery of lysine methyltransferase (KMTs) substrates has been burgeoning because of established systematic substrate screening protocols. Here, we describe a protocol enabling the systematic identification of JmjC KDM substrate preference and in vitro substrates. Systematically designed peptide libraries containing methylated lysine residues are used to characterize enzyme-substrate preference and identify new candidate substrates in vitro. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Hoekstra and Biggar (2021).

Identification of immune cells and mRNA associated with prognosis of gastric cancer.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The clinical success demonstrates the enormous potential of immunotherapy in cancer treatment. METHODS:This article presented research linking gastric cancer to immune cells, based on RNA-seq data of Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) and gene expression profile of GSE84437, 24 kinds of tumor-infiltrating immune cells were quantified by single-sample gene set enrichment analysis. RESULTS:Th2 cells, T helper cells, and Mast cells were identified as prognostic immune cells in both TCGA and GEO groups. Then SUPV3L1 and SLC22A17 were identified as hub genes which may affect immune cell infiltration by correlation analysis. Survival analysis further proved that hub genes and prognostic immune cells are associated with the prognosis of gastric cancer. In gastrointestinal tumors, hub genes and prognostic immune cells also found differences in non-tumor and tumor tissues. CONCLUSIONS:We found that three immune cells infiltration are associated with the prognosis of gastric cancer and further identify two hub genes. These two key genes may affect immune cell infiltration, result in the different prognosis of patients.
