ATP-Competitive Partial Antagonists—'PAIR's—Segregate IRE1α’s RNase-Mediated Biological Outputs

ABSTRACT: During mammalian cell growth and differentiation, the unfolded protein response (UPR) homeostatically adjusts endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein-folding capacity to match changing cellular secretory demands. However, under high/chronic ER stress conditions the UPR triggers apoptosis. This dichotomy is promoted in part by differential activation levels of the ER transmembrane kinase/endoribonuclease (RNase) IRE1a. IRE1a kinase auto-phosphorylation operates as a rheostat to control downstream RNase-induced outputs that either sustain adaptive ER protein-folding or cause apoptosis. We have previously shown that IRE1a’s RNase activity can be activated or fully inactivated by ATP-competitive kinase inhibitors. Here we developed a new class of ATP-competitive kinase inhibitors that partially antagonize the RNase of IRE1a at full occupancy. An atomic level resolution co-crystal structure shows that these small molecule partial antagonists—which we named ‘PAIR’s for (Partial Antagonists of IRE1a RNase)—occupy the ATP-binding site of IRE1a and partially displace a helix (helix aC) in the kinase domain that forms part of a dimeric interface. In insulin-producing beta cells, PAIRs permit adaptive XBP1 mRNA splicing, while quelling destructive/terminal outputs from extra-XBP1 mRNA endonucleolytic decay, thus preventing apoptosis. Preservation of XBP1 splicing by PAIRs permits B lymphocytes to differentiate into immunoglobulin-producing plasma cells. In summary, we propose that an intermediate RNase-inhibitory “sweet spot,” achieved by PAIR-bound IRE1a, may capture a structural conformation naturally available to IRE1a that could represent a desirable therapeutic state for drugging this master UPR sensor/effector.

Project description:INS1-EGFP-L10a stable cell lines were induced with Doxycycline (Dox) for 24 hours, then either untreated or treated for 30 minutes with 1uM Thapsigargin to induce ER stress. Total RNA was purified with Trizol, and RIP RNA samples were extracted by immunoaffinity purification using an EGFP antibody We aimed to determine which genes are enriched under ER stress at the polyribosomal level. To do this we compared expression profiles of Total RNA with and without ER stress, and Immunoaffinity purified RNA (RIP) with and without ER stress. Microarray results of INS-1 EGFP-L10a cells either untreated or treated with 1uM Thapsigargin (Tg) in triplicate. Both Total RNA and RNA isolated from ribosomal Immunoprecipitation (RIP) When unfolded proteins accumulate to irremediably high levels within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), intracellular signaling pathways called the unfolded protein response (UPR) become hyperactivated to cause programmed cell death. We discovered that thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) is a critical node in this M-bM-^@M-^\Terminal UPRM-bM-^@M-^]. TXNIP becomes rapidly induced by hyperactivated IRE1a, an ER bifunctional kinase/endoribonuclease (RNase). IRE1a controls TXNIP mRNA stability by reducing levels of a TXNIP destabilizing micro-RNA, miR-17. In turn, elevated TXNIP protein activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, causing Caspase-1 cleavage and interleukin 1b (IL-1b) secretion. Txnip gene deletion reduces pancreatic b-cell death during ER stress, and suppresses diabetes caused by proinsulin misfolding in the Akita mouse. Finally, small molecule IRE1a RNase inhibitors suppress TXNIP production to block IL-1b secretion. In summary, the IRE1a-TXNIP pathway is used in the terminal UPR to promote sterile inflammation and programmed cell death, and may be targeted to develop new treatments for degenerative diseases driven by ER stress. There are 12 samples total all in INS-1 EGFP L10a cells- 3 untreated total RNA (reference sample), 3 treated with 1uM Tg 30 min total RNA, 3 untreated RIP RNA (reference sample), 3 treated with 1uM for 30 min RIP RNA
