Synapse integrity and function: dependence on protein synthesis and identification of potential failure points

ABSTRACT: Synaptic integrity and function depend on myriad proteins - labile molecules with finite lifetimes that need to be continually replaced with freshly synthesized copies. Here we describe experiments designed to expose synaptic (and neuronal) properties and functions that are particularly sensitive to disruptions in protein supply, identify proteins lost early upon such disruptions, and uncover potential, yet currently underappreciated failure points. We report here that acute suppressions of protein synthesis are followed within hours by reductions in spontaneous network activity levels, impaired oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial function, reduced tenacity of both excitatory and inhibitory synapses and loss of synapses of both classes. Conversely, gross impairments in presynaptic vesicle recycling are observed only after several days, as is overt cell death. Proteomic analysis identified groups of potentially essential ‘early-lost’ proteins including regulators of synapse stability, proteins related to bioenergetics, fatty acid and lipid metabolism, and, unexpectedly, numerous proteins involved in Alzheimer’s disease pathology and amyloid beta processing.

Identification of Long Lived Synaptic Proteins by Comprehensive Proteomic Analysis of Synaptosome Protein Turnover

Project description:Memory formation is believed result from changes in synapse strength and structure. While memories may persist for the lifetime of an organism, the proteins and lipids that make up synapses undergo constant turnover with lifetimes from minutes to days. The molecular basis for memory maintenance may rely on a subset of long-lived proteins (LLPs). While it is known that LLPs exist, whether such proteins are present at synapses is unknown. We performed an unbiased screen using metabolic pulse-chase labeling in mice and cultured neurons combined with quantitative proteomics and identified synaptic LLPs with half-lives of several weeks or longer. Synaptic proteins generally exhibited longer lifetimes than cytosolic proteins. Protein turnover was sensitive to pharmacological manipulations of activity in neuronal cultures or in mice exposed to an enriched environment. We show that synapses contain LLPs and that global synapse protein turnover is modulated by neuronal activity and behavioral experience.

Dependence of Synaptic Protein Degradation on Proteasomal Function -Part2

Project description:Synaptic function crucially depends on uninterrupted synthesis and degradation of synaptic proteins. While much has been learned on synaptic protein synthesis, little is known on the routes by which synaptic proteins are degraded. Here we systematically studied how inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasomal system (UPS) affects the degradation rates of thousands of neuronal and synaptic proteins. We identified a number of proteins, including several proteins related to glutamate receptor trafficking, whose degradation rates were significantly slowed by UPS inhibition. Unexpectedly, however, degradation rates of most synaptic proteins were not significantly affected. Interestingly, many of the differential effects of UPS inhibition were readily explained by a quantitative framework that considered known metabolic turnover rates for the same proteins. In contrast to the limited effects on protein degradation, UPS inhibition profoundly and preferentially suppressed the synthesis of a large number of synaptic proteins. Our findings point to the importance of the UPS in the degradation of certain synaptic proteins, yet indicate that under basal conditions most synaptic proteins might be degraded through alternative pathways.

Synaptic activity-regulated gene expression_embryonic day 16

Project description:Activity-dependent changes in synapses rely on functional changes in resident proteins and on gene expression. We addressed the relationship between synapse activity and the expression of synaptic genes by comparing RNA levels in the neocortex of normal mice versus synaptically silent munc18-1 null mutants, using microarray expression analysis, quantitative PCR and Northern blotting. We hypothesized that genes under control of synaptic activity are differentially expressed between mutants and controls and found that few synaptic signaling genes were differentially expressed. However, all neuropeptide genes with detectable expression on the microarray were differentially expressed, being 3-20 fold higher in control cortex. Genes encoding their receptors and most other synaptic components were not differentially expressed. Differential expression of the neuropeptide genes was confirmed by qPCR analysis. In situ hybridization indicated that the difference in neuropeptide expression was uniform and not due to the loss of specific cells in the mutant. In primary sensory neurons, which do not depend on synaptic activity for their input, the differential expression of neuropeptides was not observed. These data reveal no simple relation between activity of synapses and expression of their resident proteins, but instead identified a unique feature of neuropeptide gene expression, which appears to depend on synaptic activity. 4 biological replicates of munc18-1 null mutants, hybridized with 4 pooled biological replicates. On one array the mutant sample was labeled with cy3 and on the other three with cy5.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain with R1158 strain background: Fold change after doxycycline treatment

Project description:To understand the extent that Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) regulated its target proteins at the transcription level, transcriptomic change was profiled in yeast cells upon Hsp90 compromising. We genetically modified the R1158 strain (resulting genotype of mutant strain: TETp-HSC82 hsp82Δ arg4Δ lys5Δ car2Δ::URA3) and then reduced the Hsp90 amount with doxycycline treatment. Fold change of mRNA from untreated to treated cells indicated the transcriptomic change. Totally, we identified 1104 genes mis-regulated with a fold change of no less than 1.5 (P <0.05) upon Hsp90 compromising. Two-condition experiment, treated vs. untreated cells. Biological duplicates, independently grown and harvested. Technical triplicates for RNA isolation.

Multiomics of synaptic junctions reveals altered lipid metabolism and signaling following environmental enrichment

Project description:Membrane lipids and their metabolism have key functions in neurotransmission. Here we provide a quantitative lipid inventory of mouse and rat synaptic junctions. To this end, we developed a multiomics extraction and analysis workflow to probe the interplay of proteins and lipids in synaptic signal transduction from the same sample. Based on this workflow, we generate hypotheses about novel mechanisms underlying complex changes in synaptic connectivity elicited by environmental stimuli. As a proof of principle, this approach reveals that in mice exposed to an enriched environment, reduced endocannabinoid synthesis and signaling is linked to increased surface expression of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) in a subset of Cannabinoid-receptor 1 positive synapses. This mechanism regulates synaptic strength in an input-specific manner. Thus, we establish a compartment-specific multiomics workflow that is suitable to extract information from complex lipid and protein networks involved in synaptic function and plasticity.

A Specific Neuroligin3-αNeurexin1Signaling Regulates GABAergic Synaptic Function in Mouse Hippocampus

Project description:Synapses are fundamental organizers of precise signal propagation between neurons. Maintaining synapse assemblies require interactions between pre- and post- synaptic proteins, notably cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). It has been proposed that the function of Neuroligins (Nlgn1 - 4), postsynaptic CAMs, relies on the formation of trans-synaptic complexes with Neurexins (Nrxs), presynaptic CAMs. Nlgn3 is a unique Nlgn isoform that localizes at both excitatory and inhibitory synapses. However, Nlgn3 function mediated through Nrx interaction is mostly unknown. Here, we find for the first time that Nlgn3 localizes at postsynaptic sites apposing vesicular glutamate transporter 3 (VGT3)-expressing inhibitory terminals. Overexpression and knockdown approaches indicate that Nlgn3 regulates VGT3-positive inhibitory interneuron-mediated synaptic transmission. Fluorescent in situ hybridization and single-cell RNA sequencing studies revealed that αNrxn1 and βNrxn3 are VGT3 interneuron-specific Nrxn isoforms and the expression levels of Nrxn splice isoforms are highly diverse in VGT3 interneurons, respectively. Most importantly, postsynaptic Nlgn3 requires presynaptic αNrx1+AS4 expressed in VGT3-positive interneurons to regulate inhibitory synaptic transmission. Our results strongly suggest that specific Nlgn-Nrx interaction generate distinct functional properties at synapses.

Activity-induced Nr4a1 regulates spine density and distribution pattern of excitatory synapses in pyramidal neurons

Project description:Excitatory synapses occur mainly on dendritic spines, and spine density is usually correlated with the strength of excitatory synaptic transmission. We report that Nr4a1, an activity-inducible gene encoding a nuclear receptor, regulates the density and distribution of dendritic spines in CA1 pyramidal neurons. Nr4a1 overexpression resulted in elimination of the majority of spines; however, postsynaptic densities were preserved on dendritic shafts, and the strength of excitatory synaptic transmission was unaffected, showing that excitatory synapses can be dissociated from spines. mRNA expression profiling studies suggest that Nr4a1-mediated transcriptional regulation of the actin cytoskeleton contributes to this effect. Under conditions of chronically elevated activity, when Nr4a1 was induced, Nr4a1 knockdown increased the density of spines and PSDs specifically at the distal ends of dendrites. Thus, Nr4a1 is a key component of an activity-induced transcriptional program that regulates the density and distribution of spines and synapses. After 10 days in culture, dissociated mouse hippocampal neurons in 6-well plates were infected with lentivirus expressing either Flag-Nr4a1 or GFP and incubated for 6 days to allow for transgene expression. Total RNA was then isolated using RNeasy Plus kit (QIAGEN). Samples passing an mRNA quality check proceeded to quantitative analysis on Agilent-026655 4x44 Mouse Microarrays.

NONO mutations cause syndromic intellectual disability and inhibitory synaptic defects

Project description:Identifying causes of sporadic intellectual disability remains a considerable medical challenge. Here, we demonstrate that null mutations in the NONO gene, a member of the Drosophila Behavior Human Splicing (DBHS) protein family, are a novel cause of X-linked syndromic intellectual disability. Comparing humans to Nono-deficient mice revealed related behavioral and craniofacial anomalies, as well as global transcriptional dysregulation. Nono-deficient mice also showed deregulation of a large number of synaptic transcripts, causing a disorganization of inhibitory synapses, with impaired postsynaptic scaffolding of gephyrin. Alteration of gephyrin clustering could be rescued by over-expression of Gabra2 in NONO-compromised neurons. These findings link NONO to intellectual disability and first highlight the key role of DBHS proteins in functional organization of GABAergic synapses.
