Biochemical and Proteomic Studies of Human Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate-Binding Protein (PLPBP).

ABSTRACT: The pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-binding protein (PLPBP) is an evolutionarily conserved protein linked to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-binding. Although mutations in PLPBP were shown to cause vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy, its cellular role and function remain elusive. We here report a detailed biochemical investigation of human PLPBP and its epilepsy-causing mutants by evaluating stability, cofactor binding, and oligomerization. In this context, chemical cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry unraveled an unexpected dimeric assembly of PLPBP. Furthermore, the interaction network of PLPBP was elucidated by chemical cross-linking paired with co-immunoprecipitation. A mass spectrometric analysis in a PLPBP knockout cell line resulted in distinct proteomic changes compared to wild type cells, including upregulation of several cytoskeleton- and cell division-associated proteins. Finally, transfection experiments with vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy-causing PLPBP variants indicate a potential role of PLPBP in cell division as well as proper muscle function. Taken together, our studies on the structure and cellular role of human PLPBP enable a better understanding of the physiological and pathological mechanism of this important protein.

Project description:Escherichia coli YggS (COG0325) is a member of the highly conserved pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-binding protein (PLPBP) family. Recent studies suggested a role for this protein family in the homeostasis of vitamin B6 and amino acids. The deletion or mutation of a member of this protein family causes pleiotropic effects in many organisms and is causative of vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy in humans. To date, little has been known about the mechanism by which lack of YggS results in these diverse phenotypes. In this study, we determined that the pyridoxine (PN) sensitivity observed in yggS-deficient E. coli was caused by the pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP)-dependent overproduction of Val, which is toxic to E. coli The data suggest that the yggS mutation impacts Val accumulation by perturbing the biosynthetic of Thr from homoserine (Hse). Exogenous Hse inhibited the growth of the yggS mutant, caused further accumulation of PNP, and increased the levels of some intermediates in the Thr-Ile-Val metabolic pathways. Blocking the Thr biosynthetic pathway or decreasing the intracellular PNP levels abolished the perturbations of amino acid metabolism caused by the exogenous PN and Hse. Our data showed that a high concentration of intracellular PNP is the root cause of at least some of the pleiotropic phenotypes described for a yggS mutant of E. coliIMPORTANCE Recent studies showed that deletion or mutation of members of the YggS protein family causes pleiotropic effects in many organisms. Little is known about the causes, mechanisms, and consequences of these diverse phenotypes. It was previously shown that yggS mutations in E. coli result in the accumulation of PNP and some metabolites in the Ile/Val biosynthetic pathway. This work revealed that some exogenous stresses increase the aberrant accumulation of PNP in the yggS mutant. In addition, the current report provides evidence indicating that some, but not all, of the phenotypes of the yggS mutant in E. coli are due to the elevated PNP level. These results will contribute to continuing efforts to determine the molecular functions of the members of the YggS protein family.
