TRX-1 Regulates SKN-1 Nuclear Localization Cell Non-Autonomously in Caenorhabditis elegans

ABSTRACT: The Caenorhabditis elegans oxidative stress response transcription factor, SKN-1, is essential for the maintenance of redox homeostasis and is a functional ortholog of the Nrf family of transcription factors. The numerous levels of regulation that govern these transcription factors underscore their importance. Here, we add a thioredoxin, encoded by trx-1, to the expansive list of SKN-1 regulators. We report that loss of trx-1 promotes nuclear localization of intestinal SKN-1 in a redox-independent, cell non-autonomous fashion from the ASJ neurons. Furthermore, this regulation is not general to the thioredoxin family, as two other C. elegans thioredoxins TRX-2 and TRX-3 do not play a role in this process. Moreover, TRX-1-dependent regulation requires signaling from the p38 MAPK signaling pathway. However, while TRX-1 regulates SKN-1 nuclear localization, SKN-1 transcriptional activity remains largely unaffected. Interestingly, RNA-Seq revealed that loss of trx-1 elicits a general, organism-wide down-regulation of several classes of genes; those encoding for collagens and lipid transport and localization being most prevalent. However, one prominent lipase-related gene, lips-6, is highly up regulated upon loss of trx-1 in a skn-1-dependent manner. Together, these results uncover a novel role for a thioredoxin in regulating intestinal SKN-1 nuclear localization in a cell non-autonomous manner, thereby contributing to the understanding of the processes involved in maintaining redox homeostasis throughout an organism.

Identification of thioredoxin-dependent regulatory cysteines in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii using the reductome approach.

Project description:Thiol-based redox post-translational modifications have emerged as important mechanisms of signaling and regulation in all organisms. In this context, the small ubiquitous oxido-reductase thioredoxin (Trx) plays a key role by controlling the thiol-disulfide status of target proteins. Recent redox proteomic studies revealed hundreds of proteins regulated by glutathionylation and nitrosylation in the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii while much less is known about the thioredoxin interactome, called thioredoxome hereafter, in this photosynthetic model organism. Using a quantitative large scale proteomic analysis based on the in vitro reconstitution of the enzymatic thioredoxin system (NADPH, NTR, Trx) within an acellular extract and followed by an isotopic labeling with cleavable Isotopic-Coded Affinity Tag reagents, we identified 1052 Trx-targeted cysteines spread over 602 proteins. These Trx-targets participate in a wide variety of metabolic pathways and cellular processes. This approach, combined with the affinity purification approach study (PXD006097) broadens not only the redox regulation to new enzymes involved in metabolic pathways already known to be regulated by thioredoxins (carbon, lipid and energy metabolism) but also shed light on cellular processes for which data supporting a putative redox regulation in these processes are scarce (aromatic amino-acid biosynthesis, nuclear transport,…). Moreover, by comparing this thioredoxome with proteomic data for glutathionylation and nitrosylation at the protein and cysteine levels, this work confirms the existence of a complex redox regulation network in Chlamydomonas and provides evidence of a tremendous selectivity of redox post-translational modifications for specific cysteines residues.

Project description:Coordination of cellular responses to stress are essential for health across the lifespan. The transcription factor SKN-1 is an essential homeostat that mediates survival in stress-inducing environments and cellular dysfunction, but constitutive activation of SKN-1 drives premature aging thus revealing the importance of turning off cytoprotective pathways. Here we identify how SKN-1 activation in two ciliated ASI neurons in C. elegans results in an increase in organismal transcriptional capacity that drives pleiotropic outcomes in peripheral tissues. An increase in the expression of established SKN-1 stress response and lipid metabolism gene classes of RNA in the ASI neurons, in addition to the increased expression of several classes of non-coding RNA, define a molecular signature of animals with constitutive SKN-1 activation and diminished healthspan. We reveal neddylation as a novel regulator of the SKN-1 homeostat that mediates SKN-1 abundance within intestinal cells. Moreover, RNAi-independent activity of the dicer-related DExD/H-box helicase, drh-1, in the intestine, can oppose the effects of aberrant SKN-1 transcriptional activation and delays age-dependent decline in health. Taken together, our results uncover a cell non-autonomous circuit to maintain organism-level homeostasis in response to excessive SKN-1 transcriptional activity in the sensory nervous system.

Functions and adaptive responses to oxidative stress of the thioredoxin and glutathione pathways in Clostridium acetobutylicum

Project description:Oxidative stress is harmful for organism and occurs when the cells exposed to superoxid, hydrogen peroxide and alkylhydroperoxides. In microorganism, the glutathione- and thioredoxin-dependent reduction systems are universal and play an important role in response to defending oxidative stress. The _-glutamylcysteine synthetase (_-GCS) is an essential enzyme to biosynthesize the tripeptide glutathione (GSH) in organism. Similarly, thioredoxin reductase is an important enzyme in thioredoxin-dependent reduction system. In Clostridium acetobutylicum, the _-glutamylcysteine synthetase (encoded by CAC1539, gcs) and thioredoxin reductase (encoded by CAC1548, trxB) were inactivated using ClosTron technology. The gcs mutant grew insufficiently and consumed less glucose in the phosphate-limited continuous culture and exhibited more sensitive to oxidative stress. The trxB mutant just exhibited lower growth rate and less glucose uptake in the solventogenic phase, compared to wild type. The DNA microarrays were performed to investigate the transcripome difference between wild type and the mutants. In gcs mutant, the genes related to chemotaxis and flagella biosynthesis proteins were induced significantly and in the trxB mutant, the sporulation genes were induced largely. Based on the phenotypes and transcriptome comparison results, the relationship between GSH- and Trx-dependent induction systems was discussed in Clostridium acetobutylicum.

Transcriptional redirection of activated SKN-1/NRF2 abates the negative metabolic outcomes of a perceived pathogen infection

Project description:Optimal health requires perpetual transcriptional fidelity of gene expression. SKN-1/NRF2 is a cytoprotective transcription factor in C. elegans that regulates the expression of cellular defenses during stress, including: nutrient deprivation, redox imbalance, and xenobiotic and pathogen exposure. Constitutive activation of SKN-1 results in pleiotropic outcomes, including shortened lifespan and protective redistribution of somatic fat to the germline. We measured lipid distribution between the soma and germ tissues after manipulation of SKN-1 activity. Modulating the epigenetic landscape refines SKN-1 activity away from innate immunity targets and alleviates negative metabolic outcomes. Similarly, paraquat exposure redirects SKN-1 activity toward oxidative stress responses and away from pathogen response genes, which restores lipid distribution across tissues. Lastly, activating p38 MAPK signaling is sufficient to drive SKN-1-dependent loss of somatic fat. These data reveal a coordination of organismal metabolic homeostasis with pathogen responses and identifies mechanisms for counteracting the pleiotropic consequences of aberrant transcriptional activity.

NTRC controls chloroplast redox homeostasis through the regulation of the redox balance of 2-Cys Prxs in Arabidopsis

Project description:Thiol-dependent redox regulation is essential for the rapid adaptation of chloroplast metabolism to unpredictable changes of light intensity. The disulfide reductase activity of thioredoxins (Trxs), which relies on photo-reduced ferredoxin (Fdx) and a Fdx-dependent Trx reductase (FTR), constitutes the Fdx-FTR-Trxs system, which links chloroplast redox regulation to light. In addition, chloroplasts harbor an NADPH-dependent Trx reductase (NTR) with a joint Trx domain, NTRC. The activity of these two redox systems is integrated by the balance of the hydrogen peroxide scavenging enzyme 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (2-Cys Prx), which thus plays a key role in maintaining the reducing capacity of chloroplast Trxs in response to light intensity. Based on the severe phenotype of mutant lines lacking NTRC, it is clear that this enzyme plays an essential role in chloroplast redox homeostasis. However, whether the function of NTRC depends on its capacity of reduce 2-Cys Prxs or has additional targets remains unknown. Here, we have addressed this issue by a comparative analysis of the triple mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana, ntrc-2cpab, simultaneously lacking 2-Cys Prxs and NTRC, and the double mutant 2cpab lacking 2-Cys Prxs. The phenotype of the ntrc-2cpab mutant is indistinguishable of the 2cpab mutant, as shown by growth rate, photosynthesis performance, light-dependent redox regulation of enzyme activity and comparative transcriptomics based RNA-Seq. Based on these results, we propose that the function of NTRC in chloroplast redox homeostasis is exerted by the regulation of the redox balance of 2-Cys Prxs rather than by the direct reduction of additional targets.

Impact of light and thioredoxins on the landscape of the plant thiol-disulfide proteome

Project description:Thiol-based redox regulation is a crucial post-translational mechanism to acclimate plants to changing light availability. Here, we conduct a biotin-switch-based redox proteomics study to systematically investigate dynamics of the thiol-redox network in response to temporal changes in light availability and across genotypes lacking parts of the NTRC/thioredoxin (Trx) systems in the chloroplast. Temporal dynamics revealed light leading to marked decreases in the oxidation states of 75 chloroplast proteins mainly involved in photosynthesis during the first 10 min, followed by their partial re-oxidation after 2-6 hours into the photoperiod. This involved f, m and x-type Trx proteins showing similar light-induced reduction-oxidation dynamics, while NTRC, 2-Cys-Prx and Trx y2 showed an opposing pattern, being more oxidized in the light, compared to the dark. In Arabidopsis trxf1f2, trxm1m2 or ntrc mutants, most protein candidates showed increased oxidation states, compared to the wild type, suggesting their light-dependent dynamics to be related to the NTRC/Trx network. In this context, deficiencies in f- and m-type Trxs were found to have different impacts on the thiol-redox proteome depending on the light environment, being higher in constant and fluctuating light, respectively, while NTRC deficiency having a strong influence in all light conditions. Results indicate the plant redox proteome to be subject to dynamic changes in reductive and oxidative pathways to cooperatively fine-tune photosynthetic and metabolic processes in the light. This involves f-type Trxs and NTRC to play a role in constant light conditions, while both m-type Trxs and NTRC being important to balance changes in protein redox-pattern during dynamic alterations in fluctuating light intensities.
