Distinct roles of the two Elongator subcomplexes during neurodevelopment

ABSTRACT: The highly conserved Elongator complex is a translational regulator and a subject of growing interest due to its critical role in neurodevelopment, neurological diseases and brain tumors. Clinically relevant mutations have been reported in the catalytic Elp123 subcomplex, while no mutation in the accessory subcomplex Elp456 have been described so far. Here, we identify pathogenic variants of ELP4 and ELP6 in patients with developmental delay, epilepsy as well as intellectual and motor impairment. We use single particle cryo-EM to determine the structures of human and murine Elp456 subcomplexes and reconstitute an active mouse Elongator comprising of all six subunits. We show that patient derived mutations in Elp456 affect the affinity for specific tRNA molecules and diminish the tRNA modification activity of Elongator in vitro as well as in human and murine cells. Modelling the mutations in mice recapitulates the clinical features of the patients and reveals neuropathology that differs from the one caused by previously characterized Elp123 mutations. Altogether, our study demonstrates a direct correlation between Elp4 and Elp6 mutations, reduced Elongator activity and neurological defects. Foremost, our data indicate distinct roles of the Elp123 and Elp456 subcomplexes for different tRNA species, in different cell types and in different key steps during the neurodevelopment of higher organisms.

Project description:Several proteomics studies have been performed in the past in order to define the mammalian peroxisomal proteome. During the last decade, it has as well become evident, that a significant number of proteins is shared between several subcellular compartments and that specialized proteins subsets are constituents of membrane contact zones, which bridge two adjacent organelle to allow metabolite exchange. In this respect, a number of proteins, which have been considered as mere contaminants in previous studies, might be indeed proteins, which are to a minor extent indeed truly associated with peroxisomes. Ongoing technical improvements in mass spectrometry (MS) allow to identify and to quantify the enrichment of such less abundant proteins in individual fractions. Accordingly, this study reassessed the proteome of mouse liver peroxisomes by parallel isolation of peroxisomes from a mitochondria- and a microsome-enriched pre-fraction combining density gradient centrifugation with a SWATH-MS quantitative proteomics approach to unveil novel peroxisomal or peroxisome-associated proteins. In total, 1071 proteins from the MS-samples were identified in amounts, which allowed their quantification in order to assess their enrichment in either high density peroxisomal or low-density gradient fractions, containing the bulk of organelle material. Combining the data from isolations from the mitochondria- and microsome-enriched prefractions allowed to identify specific protein clusters characteristic for mitochondria, the ER and peroxisomes. Among the proteins, which were significantly enriched in the peroxisomal cluster, were several proteins, which were not previously associated with the organelles implying that they are novel peroxisomal candidates. In order to validate the organelle proteomics strategy, five of the candidates were selected for further colocalization studies. The peroxismal import of two candidates, HTATIP2 and PAFAH2, which contain potential peroxisome targeting sequences 1, could be confirmed by overexpression in HepG2 cells. Two other candidates, SAR1B and PDCD6, which are known from ER exit sites, did not directly colocalize with peroxisomes but were found to reside at ER sites which often surrounded peroxisomes. Hence, both proteins might concentrate at peroxisome-ER membrane contact sites, which might be co-purified with peroxisomes. Intriguingly, the last candidate, OCIA domain-containing protein 1, was previously described to decrease mitochondrial branching and network formation. In this work, we not only validate its secondary peroxisomal localization but also observed a reduction in peroxisome numbers in response OCIAD1 expression. Hence, OCIAD1 appears to be a novel protein, which has an impact on both mitochondrial and peroxisomal maintenance.
