T cell maturation, selection, and function differentially depend on the chaperonin CCT

ABSTRACT: T cell homeostasis rely on de-novo transcription of proteins to ensure antigen-specific immunity. Central in this process and to ensure efficient and correct protein folding and turn-over is the Eukaryotic Type II chaperons, which primary targets are actin and tubulin. So far its role in T cell development and function remain unclear. Using a conditional deletion of a subunit within the type II chaperon complex we show this complex to be indispensable for correct maturation of thymocytes, with a reduced thymic output of mature effector and regulatory T cells. Accordingly, we found the formation of nuclear actin filaments to be reduced resulting in an array of functional effects with the most prominent being the failure to commit to the Th2 cell linage with a further insufficiency in recruiting cellular and humoral effector mechanisms to command an effective anti-parasitic response. Hence, our results highlight the importance of the Eukaryotic Type II chaperons in shaping the fate and function of CD4 T cells.

Chaperonin CCT8 is essential for T cell development and function

Project description:T cells rely for their development and function on the correct folding and turnover of proteins generated in response to a broad range of molecular cues. Here we demonstrate that the eukaryotic type II chaperonin complex CCT is indispensable for T cell development, function, stress-response, and metabolism. CCT-deficient thymoyctes are compromised in their selection, differentiation, and late stage maturation. The lack of CCT expression prevents a normal response to T cell activation induced changes in the proteome, stops the formation of nuclear actin filaments and impairs a normal cells stress response. Consequently, T cell homeostatic maintenance and receptor-mediated stimulation of proliferation are impaired in CCT-deficient T cells leading to activation-induced cell death. Furthermore, Th2 polarization digresses in the absence of CCT-controlled protein folding leading paradoxically to continued IFN-expression. As a result, CCT-deficient T cells fail to generate an efficient immune protection against helminths as they are unable to sustain a coordinated recruitment of the innate and adaptive immune systems. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that both normal thymopoiesis and peripheral T cell biology are critically dependent on CCT-controlled proteostasis and that its absence is incompatible with protective immunity.

Equivalent mutations in the eight subunits of the chaperonin CCT produce dramatically different cell phenotypes.

Project description:The eukaryotic cytoplasmic chaperonin-containing TCP-1 (CCT) is a complex formed by two back-to-back stacked hetero-octameric rings that assists the folding of actins, tubulins and other proteins in an ATP-dependent manner. Here, we decided to test the significance of the hetero-oligomeric nature of CCT for its function by introducing, in each of the eight subunits in turn, an identical mutation at a position involved in ATP binding and conserved in all the subunits, in order to establish the extent of ‘individuality’ of the various subunits. Our results show that these identical mutations lead to dramatically different phenotypes. For example, cells with the mutation in CCT2 have an excess of actin patches and are the only pseudo-diploid strain. By contrast, cells with the mutation in CCT7 are the only ones to accumulate juxta-nuclear protein aggregates that may reflect the absence of stress response in this strain. System-level analysis of the strains using RNA microarrays reveals connections between CCT and several cellular networks including ribosome biogenesis and TOR2 that help to explain the phenotypic variability observed We used microarrays to reveal the differences in mRNA expression caused by the different mutations.

Mechanisms of muscle degeneration in Drosophila third instar larval musculature upon Tropomodulin (Tmod) knockdown.

Project description:The knockdown of Tmod, an actin-capping protein, decreases the expression of proteasomal degradation genes and increase expression of oxidative metabolism genes. It is also critical for the correct expression of larval actin isoforms.

Transcriptomic changes of Escherichia coli expressing BnTR1 at normal and heat stress conditions

Project description:The heat shock response is critical for organisms to survive at a high temperature. Heterologous expression of eukaryotic molecular chaperons protects Escherichia coli against heat stress. Here we report that expression of the plant E3 ligase BnTR1 significantly increase the thermotolerance of Escherichia coli. Different from eukaryotic chaperones, BnTR1 post-transcriptionally regulates the heat shock factor σ32 though zinc fingers of the RING domain, which interacts with DnaK resulting in stabilizing σ32 and subsequently up-regulating heat shock proteins. Our findings indicate the expression of BnTR1 confers thermoprotective effects on E. coli cells, and it may provide useful clues to engineer thermophilic bacterial strains.

Capturing Salmonella SspH2 Host Targets in Virus-Like Particles

Project description:In the context of host-pathogen interactions, gram-negative bacterial virulence factors, such as effectors, may be transferred from bacterial to eukaryotic host cytoplasm by multicomponent Type III protein secretion systems (T3SSs). Central to Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) pathogenesis is the secretion of over 40 effectors by two T3SSs encoded within pathogenicity islands SPI-1 and SPI-2. These effectors manipulate miscellaneous host cellular processes, such as cytoskeleton organization and immune signaling pathways, thereby permitting host colonization and bacterial dissemination. Recent research on effector biology provided mechanistic insights for some effectors. However, for many effectors, clearly defined roles and host target repertoires—further clarifying effector interconnectivity and virulence networks—are yet to be uncovered. Here we demonstrate the utility of the recently described viral-like particle trapping technology Virotrap as an effective approach to catalogue S. Typhimurium effector-host protein complexes (EH-PCs). Mass spectrometry-based Virotrap analysis of the novel E3 ubiquitin ligase SspH2 previously shown to be implicated in modulating actin dynamics and immune signaling, exposed known host interactors PFN1 and -2 and several putative novel, interconnected host targets. Network analysis revealed an actin(-binding) cluster among the significantly enriched hits for SspH2, consistent with the known localization of the S-palmitoylated effector with actin cytoskeleton components in the host. We show that Virotrap complements the current state-of-the-art toolkit to study protein complexes and represents a valuable means to screen for effector host targets in a high-throughput manner, thereby bridging the knowledge gap between effector-host interplay and pathogenesis.

SCAF4 and SCAF8, Transcriptional Anti-Terminator Proteins (PAR-CLIP)

Project description:Accurate regulation of RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) transcriptional termination is a prerequisite for correct gene expression. Here we describe a role for SCAF4 and SCAF8 as anti-terminators, suppressing the use of early, alternative polyadenylation sites (PASs). The SCAF4/8 proteins bind the hyper-phosphorylated RNAPII C-terminal repeat domain (CTD) modified on both Ser2 and Ser5, and are detected at early, alternative PASs. Concomitant knockout of human SCAF4 and SCAF8 results in altered PAS selection, leading to expression of truncated mRNAs and proteins lacking functional domains, and is cell-lethal. While SCAF4 and SCAF8 thus work redundantly to suppress early termination, they also have independent, non-essential functions. SCAF8 is a positive RNAPII elongation factor, whereas SCAF4 is required for correct termination at canonical transcription termination sites in the presence of SCAF8. Together, SCAF4 and SCAF8 coordinate the transition between elongation and termination, directing PAS selection to ensure correct RNAPII transcriptional termination in human cells.
