NAC regulates metabolism and cell fate in intestinal stem cells

ABSTRACT: mRNA translation is a highly dynamic process that has been shown to modulate cell adaptation to stress conditions. Upon ribosome impairment, ZAKα affects the metabolic profile of intestinal cells, however the mechanism by which this is promoted is still unclear. Here, we identified the nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC) as a central player in the metabolic regulation triggered by ribosome impairment. Furthermore, we show that NAC is essential for the survival of the highly oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) reliant intestinal stem cells (ISCs), being translationally regulated itself. NAC interacts with the ribosome and promotes the transport of the translation machinery and newly-formed peptides to the proximity of the mitochondria, allowing the import of proteins essential for processes such as OXPHOS. Upon translation stress, NAC is inhibited through an interaction with ZAKα, leading to the downregulation of OXPHOS. Overall, our findings unveil that NAC is a central player in translation-mediated metabolic regulation in intestinal cells.

ZAKα Recognizes Stalled Ribosomes through Partially Redundant Sensor Domains

Project description:Impairment of ribosome function activates the MAPKKK ZAK, leading to activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases p38 and JNK and inflammatory signaling. The mechanistic basis for activation of this ribotoxic stress response (RSR) re-mains completely obscure. We show that the long isoform of ZAK (ZAKα) directly associates with ribosomes by inserting its flexible C terminus into the ribosomal intersubunit space. Here, ZAKα binds helix14 of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). An adjacent domainin ZAKa also probes the ribosome, and together, these sensor domains are critically required for RSR activation after inhibition of both the E-site, the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), and ribotoxinaction. Finally, we show that ablation of the RSR response leads to organismal phenotypes and decreased lifespan in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Our findings yield mechanistic insight into how cells detect ribotoxic stress and provide experimental in vivo evidence for its physiological importance.

Poly-GR impairs translation elongation and increases ribotoxic stress response in C9ORF72-ALS/FTD

Project description:Hexanucleotide repeat expansion in the C9ORF72 gene is the most frequent inherited cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Poly-GR is one of the most toxic dipeptide repeat (DPR) proteins translated from the RNA repeats. It has been shown to affect protein synthesis, but how this contributes to neurodegeneration is not clear. Here, we found that poly-GR inhibits global translation by perturbing translation elongation. We identified that the transcripts with relatively slow elongation rate tend to be further stalled by poly-GR in iPSC-differentiated neurons. This increases ribosome collision and ZAKα-mediated ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which elevates the phosphorylation of p38 and promotes cell death. Knockdown of ZAKα or pharmacological inhibition of p38 can ameliorate the GR toxicity, and improve the survival of C9ORF72-ALS/FTD patient-derived iPSC-neurons. Our study reveals molecular mechanism of poly-GR mediated toxicity on global translatome, and identifies RSR as a potential therapeutic target for C9ORF72-ALS/FTD.

Ribosome impairment regulates intestinal stem cell identity via ZAKɑ activation

Project description:We show that ribosome collisions, induced by Rptor deletion or aminoacid starvation, causes a ZAK alpha mediated identity switch in intestinal stem cells by activating a more fetal-like stem cell signature. This switch also causes changes in metabolic profiles of the cells, which is heavily regulated by RNA translation efficiency of different group of metabolic genes. These observations originate from performing in vitro Riboseq and RNAseq in mouse intestinal organoids, and in vivo Riboseq in Lgr5 expressing intestinal stem cells from WT and Rptor.fl/fl mice.

Ribosome impairment regulates intestinal stem cell identity via ZAKa activation.

Project description:The small intestine is a rapidly proliferating organ that is maintained by a small population of Lgr5-expressing intestinal stem cells (ISCs). However, several Lgr5-negative ISC populations have been identified, and this remarkable plasticity allows the intestine to rapidly respond to both the local environment and to damage. The mediators of such plasticity are still largely unknown. Using intestinal organoids and mouse models, we show that upon ribosome impairment (driven by Rptor deletion, amino acid starvation, or low dose cyclohexamide treatment) ISCs gain an Lgr5-negative, fetal-like identity. This is accompanied by a rewiring of metabolism. Our findings suggest that the ribosome can act as a sensor of nutrient availability, allowing ISCs to respond to the local nutrient environment. Mechanistically, we show that this phenotype requires the activation of ZAKɑ, which in turn activates YAP, via SRC. Together, our data reveals a central role for ribosome dynamics in intestinal stem cells, and identify the activation of ZAKɑ as a critical mediator of stem cell identity.

IFN-g Regulates mTORC1, Cellular Metabolism and mRNA Translation to Potentiate Inflammatory Macrophage Activation [RNA-Seq]

Project description:IFN-g primes macrophages for enhanced inflammatory activation by TLRs and microbial killing, but little is known about the regulation of cell metabolism or mRNA translation during priming. We found that IFN-g regulates macrophage metabolism and translation in an integrated manner by targeting mTORC1 and MNK pathways that converge on the selective regulator of translation initiation eIF4E. Physiological downregulation of the central metabolic regulator mTORC1 by IFN-g was associated with autophagy and translational suppression of repressors of inflammation such as HES1. Genome-wide ribosome profiling in TLR2-stimulated macrophages revealed that IFN-g selectively modulates the macrophage translatome to promote inflammation, further reprogram metabolic pathways, and modulate protein synthesis. These results add IFN-g-mediated metabolic reprogramming and translational regulation as key components of classical inflammatory macrophage activation. RPF and RNAseq libraries were generated from mock or IFN-g-primed human macrophages. Cells were stimulated with Pam3Cys and harvested at 4 hours. Libraries were generated using protocol modified from Illumina Truseq technology.

Rio-seq Analysis on SETD2-Deficient and Control Intestinal Epithelial Cells

Project description:Protein abundance does not necessarily correlate with mRNA levels, highlighting the highly variable efficiency of translation. Ribosome biogenesis, the process of ribosome production, affects translation efficiency and plays a crucial role in various biological processes. However, its role in maintaining epithelial barrier integrity has not been definitively established. SETD2 is a methyltransferase critical for the integrity of epithelial barrier. Here, we examined intact intestinal barrier with SETD2 present and compromised intestinal barrier with SETD2 loss.

OXPHOS bioenergetic compensation does not explain disease penetrance in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy

Project description:Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is one of the most common primary mitochondrial diseases. It is caused by point mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genes and in some cases, it can result in irreversible vision loss, primarily in young men. It is currently unknown why LHON mutations affect only some carriers and whether bioenergetic compensation enables asymptomatic carriers to overcome mitochondrial impairment and preserve cellular function. Here, we conducted bioenergetic metabolic assays and RNA sequencing to address this question using male-only, age-matched, m.11778G>A lymphoblasts and primary fibroblasts from both carriers and affected individuals. Our work indicates that OXPHOS bioenergetic compensation in LHON peripheral cells does not explain disease phenotype. We show that complex I impairment is similar in carrier and affected cells, despite a transcriptional downregulation of metabolic pathways including glycolysis in affected cells relative to carriers detected by RNA sequencing. Although we did not detect OXPHOS bioenergetic compensation in carrier cells, our results indicate that affected cells suffer a growth impairment under metabolic challenge compared to carrier cells, which were unaffected by metabolic challenge. If recapitulated in retinal ganglion cells, decreased susceptibility to metabolic challenge in carriers may help preserve metabolic homeostasis in the face of the mitochondrial complex I bioenergetic defect.

Cellular translational enhancer elements that recruit eukaryotic initiation factor 3

Project description:Translation initiation is a highly regulated process which broadly affects eukaryotic gene expression. Eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) is a central player in canonical and alternative pathways for ribosome recruitment. Here we have investigated how direct binding of eIF3 contributes to the large and regulated differences in protein output conferred by different 5′-untranslated regions (5′-UTRs) of cellular mRNAs. Using an unbiased high-throughput approach to determine the affinity of budding yeast eIF3 for native 5′-UTRs from 4,252 genes, we demonstrate that eIF3 binds specifically to a subset of 5′-UTRs that contain a short unstructured binding motif, AMAYAA. eIF3 binding mRNAs have higher ribosome density in growing cells and are preferentially translated under certain stress conditions, supporting the functional relevance of this interaction. Our results reveal a new class of translational enhancer and suggest a mechanism by which changes in core initiation factor activity enact mRNA-specific translation programs.
