Reduced mitochondria provide an essential function for the cytosolic methionine cycle

ABSTRACT: Since the discovery of eukaryotes without mitochondria, intestinal flagellates oxymonads, it was clear that the loss of mitochondria was facilitated by the remodelling of the FeS cluster synthesis. Yet, this remodelling is common for a broader linage including free-living species with reduced mitochondria and so question remains what the functions of their organelles are. We resolved to a high precision the proteome of one of them using Localisation of Organelle Proteins by Isotope Tagging (LOPIT) and demonstrate that it performs the synthesis of folate derivates bearing one carbon units. This pathway links to a previously localised glycine cleavage system (GCS) and its only conceivable client seems cytosolic methionine cycle recycling S-adenosine methionine. This observation gives a sense for the consistent presence of GCS in reduced mitochondria of free-living anaerobes and its absence in endobionts, which typically lose the methionine cycle and in the case of oxymonads also mitochondria.

The loss of mitochondria in oxymonad protists has been associated with the redirection of the essential Fe-S cluster assembly to the cytosol. Yet as our knowledge of diverse free-living protists broadens, the list of functions of their mitochondrial-related organelles (MROs) expands. We revealed another such function in the closest oxymonad relative, Paratrimastix pyriformis, after we solved the proteome of its MRO with high accuracy, using localization of organelle proteins by isotope tagging ( ...[more]

Project description:Cyanobacteria are complex prokaryotes, incorporating a Gram-negative cell wall and internal thylakoid membranes (TM). However, localisation of proteins within cyanobacterial cells is poorly understood. Using subcellular fractionation and quantitative proteomics we report the first subcellular map of the proteome of an entire cyanobacterial (or any other prokaryotic) cell, identifying ~67% of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 proteins, ~1000 more than previous studies. 1,712 proteins were assigned to six specific subcellular regions. Proteins involved in energy generation localised to TMs. The majority of transporters, with the exception of the TM localised copper importer CtaA, resided in the plasma membrane (PM). Most metabolic enzymes are soluble although numerous pathways terminated in the TM (notably those involved in peptidoglycan monomer, NADP+, heme, lipid and carotenoid biosynthesis), or the PM (specifically those catalysing lipopolysaccharide, molybdopterin, flavin adenine dinucleotide and menaquinone biosynthesis). Furthermore, we identified the proteins involved in the TM and PM electron transport chains. The majority of ribosomal proteins and enzymes synthesising the storage compound polyhydroxybuyrate formed distinct clusters within the data suggesting that they have similar subcellular distributions to one another as one would expect for proteins operating within multi-component protein structures. Moreover, heterogeneity within membrane and cytoplasmic regions is observed, indicating further cellular complexity. Cyanobacterial TM protein localisation is conserved in Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplasts, suggesting similar proteome organisation in higher photosynthetic organisms. The organisation of a cyanobacterial cell revealed here will significantly aid our understanding of these environmentally and biotechnological important organisms. The successful application of this technique in Synechocystis suggests it could be applied to mapping the proteomes of other cyanobacteria and complex single-celled organisms.

Project description:Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder CF is caused by mutations of the gene encoding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR), a transmembrane anion channel expressed at the apical membrane of several organs, including the epithelial cells of the airway. CFTR mutations result in dysfunctional ion transport across the apical membrane at the surface of the epithelia, generating thickened and dehydrated secretions. In the lung, this leads to a decrease in the mucociliary clearance, favoring bacterial colonization and progressive obstruction of the duct. Although over 2000 CFTR variants have been identified so far, the most common mutation is a deletion of the phenylalanine in position 508 (F508del), which shows an allelic frequency of around 90% among CF patients. F508del-CFTR is incorrectly folded, causing its retention at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequent proteasomal degradation. Among the several drugs available in CF pharmacological treatment, VX-809 (commercial name Lumacaftor) is the most used drug for patients carrying F508del-CFTR mutation. This drug corrects the aberrant folding of F508del-CFTR by favoring the correct intramolecular interactions, thus enabling a higher number of copies of the defective protein to reach the plasma membrane. Localization of Organelle Proteins by Isotope Tagging after Differential ultra-Centrifugation (LOPIT-DC, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-08191-w) workflow was used to study the spatial localization of proteins in the CFBE41o- cells and how it is impacted by CFTR rescue triggered by VX-809. LOPIT-DC is a powerful and well-established tool for the investigation of the spatial distribution of global proteome within cells, which combines subcellular fractionation based on differential centrifugation, quantitative mass spectrometry, and machine learning. Its application provides a global snapshot of the steady-state subcelluler distribution of proteins. The aim of this project is to identify proteins that change their cellular localization in association with the treatment, to uncover molecules that play a role in the trafficking of the defective CFTR to the plasma membrane.
