Proteomic analyses reveal divergent ubiquitylation site patterns in murine tissues.

ABSTRACT: Posttranslational modifications of proteins increase the complexity of the cellular proteome and enable rapid regulation of protein functions in response to environmental changes. Protein ubiquitylation is a central regulatory posttranslational modification that controls numerous biological processes including proteasomal degradation of proteins, DNA damage repair and innate immune responses. Here we combine high-resolution mass spectrometry with single-step immunoenrichment of di-glycine modified peptides for mapping of endogenous putative ubiquitylation sites in murine tissues. We identify more than 20,000 unique ubiquitylation sites on proteins involved in diverse biological processes. Our data reveals that ubiquitylation regulates core signaling pathways common for each of the studied tissues. In addition, we discover that ubiquitylation regulates tissue-specific signaling networks. Many tissue-specific ubiquitylation sites were obtained from brain highlighting the complexity and unique physiology of this organ. We further demonstrate that different di-glycine-lysine-specific monoclonal antibodies exhibit sequence preferences, and that their complementary use increases the depth of ubiquitylation site analysis, thereby providing a more unbiased view of protein ubiquitylation.

Project description:Crop-wild introgressions have long been exploited without knowing the favorable recombination points. Synthetic hexaploid wheats are one of the most exploited genetic resources for bread wheat improvement. However, despite some QTL with major effects, much less is known about genome-wide patterns of introgressions and their effects on phenotypes. We used two genome-wide association approaches: SNP-GWAS and haplotype-GWAS to identify SNPs and haplotypes associated with productivity under water-limited conditions in a synthetic-derived wheat (SYN-DER) population. Haplotype-GWAS further enriched and identified 20 more genomic regions associated with drought adaptability that did not overlap with SNP-GWAS. Since GWAS is biased to the phenotypes in the study and may fail to detect important genetic diversity during breeding, we used five complementary analytical approaches (t-test, Tajima's D, nucleotide diversity (π), Fst, and EigenGWAS) to identify divergent selections in SYN-DER compared to modern bread wheat. These approaches consistently pinpointed 89 'selective sweeps', out of which 30 selection loci were identified on D-genome. These key selections co-localized with important functional genes of adaptive traits such as TaElf3-D1 (1D) for earliness per se (Eps), TaCKX-D1 (3D), TaGS1a (6D) and TaGS-D1 (7D) for grain size, weight and morphology, TaCwi-D1 (5D) influencing drought tolerance, and Vrn-D3 (7D) for vernalization. Furthermore, 55 SNPs and 23 haplotypes of agronomic and physiological importance such as grain yield, relative water content and thousand grain weight in SYN-DER, were among the top 5% of divergent selections contributed by synthetic hexaploid wheats. These divergent selections associated with improved agronomic performance carry new alleles that have been introduced to wheat. Our results demonstrated that GWAS and selection sweep analyses are powerful approaches for investigating favorable introgressions under strong selection pressure and the use of crop-wild hybridization to assist the improvement of wheat yield and productivity under moisture limiting environments.
