Next-generation interaction proteomics for quantitative Jumbophage-bacteria interaction mapping
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Host-pathogen interactions (HPIs) are pivotal in regulating establishment, progression, and outcome of an infection. Affinity-purification mass spectrometry has become instrumental for the characterization of HPIs, however the targeted nature of exogenously expressing individual viral proteins has limited its utility to the analysis of relatively small pathogens. Here we present the use of co-fractionation mass spectrometry (SEC-MS) for the high-throughput analysis of HPIs from native viral infections of two Jumbophages (phiKZ and phiPA3) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This enabled the detection >6000 unique host-pathogen and >200 pathogen-pathogen interactions for each phage, encompassing >50% of the phage proteome. Interactome-wide comparison across phages showed similar perturbed protein interactions suggesting fundamentally conserved mechanisms of phage predation within the KZ-like phage family. Prediction of novel ORFs revealed a phiPA3 complex showing strong structural and sequence similarity to phiKZ nvRNAp, suggesting phiPA3 also possesses two RNA polymerases acting at different stages of the infection cycle. We further expanded our understanding on the molecular organization of the virion packaged and injected proteome by identifying 23 novel virion components and 5 novel injected proteins, as well as providing the first evidence for interactions between KZ-like phage proteins and the host ribosome. To enable accessibility to this data, we developed PhageMAP, an online resource for network query, visualization, and interaction prediction (https://phagemap.ucsf.edu/). We anticipate this study will lay the foundation for the application of co-fractionation mass spectrometry for the scalable profiling of hostpathogen interactomes and protein complex dynamics upon infection.
