Quantitative proteomics confirms CpKRS is over-expressed in genetically modified strain.

ABSTRACT: C. parvum was genetically modified to over-express CpKRS. The CpTK locus was replaced wit a cassette containing CpKRS and the dual reporter-selection marker, Nluc-NeoR, driven by the CpEnolase promoter. Quantitative proteomics analysis confirms over-expression of CpKRS and similar significantly increased expression of Nluc-NeoR.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests synaptic dysfunction is a central and possibly triggering factor in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Despite this, we still know very little about the molecular profile of an ALS synapse. To address this gap, we designed a synaptic proteomics experiment to perform an unbiased assessment of the synaptic proteome in the ALS brain. We isolated synaptoneurosomes from fresh-frozen postmortem human cortex (11 controls and 18 ALS) and stratified the ALS group based on cognitive profile (Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioural ALS Screen (ECAS score)) and presence of a C9ORF72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion (C9ORF72 -RE). This allowed us to assess regional differences and the impact of phenotype and genotype on the synaptic proteome, using Tandem Mass Tagging-based proteomics. We identified over 6000 proteins in our synaptoneurosomes and using robust bioinformatics analysis we validated the strong enrichment of synapses. We found more than 30 ALS-associated proteins in synaptoneurosomes, including TDP-43, FUS, SOD1 and C9ORF72. We identified almost 500 proteins with altered expression levels in ALS, with region-specific changes highlighting proteins and pathways with intriguing links to neurophysiology and pathology. Stratifying the ALS cohort by cognitive status revealed almost 150 specific alterations in cognitively impaired ALS synaptic preparations. Stratifying by C9ORF72 -RE status revealed 330 protein alterations in the C9ORF72 -RE+ve group, with KEGG pathway analysis highlighting strong enrichment for postsynaptic dysfunction, related to glutamatergic receptor signalling. We have validated some of these changes by western blot and at a single synapse level using array tomography imaging. In summary, we have generated the first unbiased map of the human ALS synaptic proteome, revealing novel insight into this key compartment in ALS pathophysiology and highlighting the influence of cognitive decline and C9ORF72 -RE on synaptic composition.

Project description:Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a diverse and dynamic biological process which is involved in cancer progression. It is important for carcinoma cells during invasion and metastasis. EMT has been in the spotlight for cancer cells to disseminate to distant organs by gaining partial EMT phenotype. Cancer cells with partial EMT are believed to be more cancerogenic/invasive than cells that have undergone complete EMT. The proteomic changes that occur following EMT in breast epithelial cells and how these relate to changes in cellular metabolism are incompletely understood. To study metabolic reprogramming in different mesenchymal states, we analyzed proteomic changes following EMT in the breast epithelial cell model D492, with single-shot LFQ supported by SILAC proteomic approach. The D492 EMT cell model contains three isogenic cell lines: epithelial D492 cells, mesenchymal D492M cells, and partial mesenchymal, HER2 overexpressing, tumorigenic D492HER2 cells. Proteomic analysis positioned the D492 and D492M cells as basal-like while D492HER2 as claudin-low. Further comparison of the non-tumorigenic D492 and D492M cells to tumorigenic D492HER2 differentiated the metabolic EMT markers of migration from those of invasion. Among these were markers of glycan metabolism. We identified glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase [isomerizing] 2 (GFPT2) as the top dysregulated enzyme in glycan metabolism and found increased GFPT2 expression was a characteristic of claudin-low breast cancer. siRNA knockdown of GFPT2 influenced both cell growth and invasion in vitro and was accompanied by lowered flux through the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP). Knockdown of GFPT2 decreased cystathionine and sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase (SQOR) in the transsulfuration pathway which regulates H2S production and mitochondrial homeostasis. Moreover, GFPT2 expression was regulated by the level of reduced glutathione (GSH) and suppressed by the oxidative stress regulator, GSK3-β. Our results demonstrate that GFPT2 is a marker for oxidative stress. It is upregulated and controls growth and invasion in the D492 EMT model and is associated with claudin-low and poor prognosis in breast cancer.
