Interactomics Analyses of Wild-type and Mutant A1CF Reveal Diverged Functions in Regulating Cellular Lipid Metabolism

ABSTRACT: Population genetic studies highlight a missense variant (G398S) of A1CF that is strongly associated with higher levels of blood triglycerides (TGs) and total cholesterol (TC). Functional analyses suggest that the mutation accelerates the secretion of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) from the livers by an unknown mechanism. Here, we used multi-omics approaches to interrogate the functional difference between the WT and mutant A1CF. Using metabolomics analyses, we captured the cellular lipid metabolite changes induced by the transient expression of the proteins, confirming that the mutant A1CF is able to relieve the TG accumulation induced by WT A1CF. Using a proteomics approach, we obtained the interactomic data of WT and mutant A1CF. Networking analyses show that WT A1CF interacts with three functional protein groups, RNA/mRNA processing, cytosolic translation and, surprisingly, mitochondrial translation. The mutation diminishes these interactions, especially with the group of mitochondrial translation. Differential analyses show that the WT A1CF-interacting proteins most significantly different from the mutant are those for mitochondrial translation, whereas the most significant interacting proteins with the mutant are those for cytoskeleton and vesicle-mediated transport. RNA-seq analyses validate that the mutant, but not the WT, A1CF increases the expression of the genes responsible for cellular transport processes. On the contrary, WT A1CF affected the expression of mitochondrial matrix proteins and increased cell oxygen consumption. Thus, our studies confirm the previous hypothesis that A1CF plays broader roles in regulating gene expression. The interactions of the mutant A1CF with the vesicle-mediated transport machinery provide mechanistic insight in understanding the increased VLDL secretion in the A1CF mutation carriers.

Project description:Age-related decline in brain endothelial cell (BEC) function critically contributes to cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative disease. Comprehensive atlases of the BEC transcriptome have become available but results from proteomic profiling are lacking. To gain insights into endothelial pathways affected by aging, we developed a magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS)-based mouse BEC enrichment protocol compatible with high-resolution mass-spectrometry and analysed the profiles of protein abundance changes across multiple time points between 3 and 18 months of age and identified Arf6 as one of the most prominently downregulated vesicle-mediated transport protein during BEC aging. To understand the role of ARF6 in human ECs, first we compared GFP-AAV treated human iECs differentiated from ARF6-KO vs WT iPSCs, next we compared ARF6-GFP-AAV vs GFP-AAV treated iECs differentiated from WT iPSCs. During the ARF6-KO vs WT iEC comparison we found 983 vs 741 proteins significantly down- and upregulated, respectively. Enrichment analyses of significantly downregulated proteins revealed mRNA processing among the most significantly affected biological processes. During the ARF6-GFP-AAV vs GFP-AAV treated WT iEC comparison we found 1106 vs 1218 proteins significantly down- and upregulated, respectively. Enrichment analyses of significantly upregulated proteins revealed endocytic recycling, retrograde transport (endosome to Golgi), and ER-Golgi vesicle-mediated transport among the most significantly affected biological processes. Specifically, ARF6 and its binding-protein GGA2, DNM1L and several subunits of the Conserved oligomeric Golgi complex (COG) were upregulated. Our approach uncovered changes not picked up by transcriptomic studies such as accumulation of vesicle cargo and receptor ligands including Apoe, a major regulator of brain lipid metabolism. Proteomic analysis of BECs from Apoe deficient mice revealed a signature of accelerated aging. To explore the role of APOE in human endothelial cells, in this experiment we compared human iECs differentiated from APOE-KO and WT iPSCs and found 326 significantly altered proteins. Enrichment analyses of significantly downregulated proteins revealed vesicle-mediated transport and vesicle fusion to be among the most significantly affected biological processes. Specifically, among the 34 significantly altered vesicle-mediated transport proteins 26 were downregulated. Accordingly, we found reduced levels of endocytosis of FM1-43FX in newly formed vesicles in APOE-KO iECs.

Project description:Extracellular membrane vesicles (EMVs) are produced by many Gram-positive organisms, but information regarding vesiculogenesis is incomplete. We used single gene deletions to evaluate the impacts on Streptococcus mutans EMV biogenesis of Sortase A (SrtA), which affects S. mutans EMV composition, and Sfp, a 4'-phosphopantetheinyl transferase that affects Bacillus subtilis EMV stability. ΔsrtA EMVs were notably larger than Δsfp and wild-type (WT) EMVs. EMV proteins identified from all three strains are known to be involved in cell wall biogenesis and cell architecture, bacterial adhesion, biofilm cell density and matrix development, and microbial competition. Notably, the AtlA autolysin was not processed to its mature active form in the ΔsrtA mutant. Proteomic and lipidomic analyses of all three strains revealed multiple dissimilarities between vesicular and corresponding cytoplasmic membranes (CMs). A higher proportion of EMV proteins are predicted substrates of the general secretion pathway (GSP). Accordingly, the GSP component SecA was identified as a prominent EMV-associated protein. In contrast, CMs contained more multi-pass transmembrane (TM) protein substrates of co-translational transport machineries than EMVs. EMVs from the WT, but not the mutant strains, were enriched in cardiolipin compared to CMs, and all EMVs were over-represented in polyketide flavonoids. EMVs and CMs were rich in long-chain saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, except for Δsfp EMVs that contained exclusively polyunsaturated fatty acids. Lipoproteins were less prevalent in EMVs of all three strains compared to their CMs. This study provides insight into biophysical characteristics of S. mutans EMVs and indicates discrete partitioning of protein and lipid components between EMVs and corresponding CMs of WT, ΔsrtA, and Δsfp strains.
