Project description:Ethanolamine phosphate phospholyase (ETNPPL) is an enzyme that irreversibly degrades phospho-ethanolamine (p-ETN), an intermediate in the Kennedy pathway of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) biosynthesis. PE is the second most abundant phospholipid in mammalian membranes. Disturbance of hepatic phospholipid homeostasis has been linked to the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We generated whole-body Etnppl knockout mice to investigate the impact of genetic deletion of Etnppl on hepatic lipid metabolism. Female Etnppl+/+ and Etnppl-/- mice were fed either a chow diet for 20 weeks and livers were harvested for lipds, proteins, and gene expression studies.

Project description:Bacterial pathogens must be able to both recognize suitable niches within the host for colonization and successfully compete with commensal flora for nutrients in order to establish infection. Ethanolamine (EA) is a major component of mammalian and bacterial membranes and may be used by pathogens as a carbon and/or nitrogen source in the gastrointestinal tract. We examined how EA influences gene expression in the human pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EHEC). Our results indicate EA is not only important for nitrogen metabolism, but that EA is used in cell-to-cell signaling to activate virulence gene expression. Genes encoding for the global regulatory proteins QseC, QseE, and QseA, as well as for attaching and effacement (AE) lesion formation and Shiga toxin are differentially regulated when EHEC is grown with micromolar concentrations of EA. We also constructed a deletion of eutR that encodes the regulator of the eut (EA utilization) operon and examined virulence gene expression. These results suggest that EutR is important in regulating gene expression in response to EA, but that EA signaling does not occur solely through EutR. This is the first report linking EA to cell-to-cell signaling and pathogenesis. Design of the study was to compare the transcriptional response of WT cells grown with ethanolamine to that of wild type cells grown without ethanolamine.

Project description:A prominent enzyme in organellar RNA metabolism is the exoribonuclease polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), whose reversible activity is governed by the nucleotides diphosphate-inorganic phosphate ratio. In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, PNPase regulates chloroplast transcript accumulation in response to phosphorus (P) starvation, and PNPase expression is repressed by the response regulator PSR1 under these conditions. Here, we investigated the role of PNPase in the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) P deprivation response by comparing wild-type and pnp mutant plants with respect to their morphology, metabolite profiles, and transcriptomes. We found that P-deprived pnp mutants develop aborted clusters of lateral roots, which are characterized by decreased auxin responsiveness and cell division, and exhibit cell death at the root tips. Electron microscopy revealed that the collapse of root organelles is enhanced in the pnp mutant under P deprivation and occurred with low frequency under P-replete conditions. Global analyses of metabolites and transcripts were carried out to understand the molecular bases of these altered P deprivation responses. We found that the pnp mutant expresses some elements of the deprivation response even when grown on a full nutrient medium, including altered transcript accumulation, although its total and inorganic P contents are not reduced. The pnp mutation also confers P status-independent responses, including but not limited to stress responses. Taken together, our data support the hypothesis that the activity of the chloroplast PNPase is involved in plant acclimation to P availability and that it may help maintain an appropriate balance of P metabolites even under normal growth conditions.

Project description:Many bacteria metabolize ethanolamine as a nutrient source through cytoplasmic organelles named bacterial microcompartments (BMCs). Here we investigated the molecular assembly, regulation, and function of BMCs in Fusobacterium nucleatum – a Gram-negative oral pathobiont that is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. The F. nucleatum genome harbors a conserved ethanolamine utilization (eut) locus with 21 genes that encode several putative BMC shell proteins and a two-component signal transduction system (TCS), in addition to the enzymes for ethanolamine transport and catabolism. We show that the expression of most of these genes as well as BMC formation is highly increased in wild type fusobacteria when cultured in the presence of ethanolamine as a nutrient source. Deletion of the response regulator EutV eliminated this induction of eut mRNAs and BMCs, thus demonstrating that BMC formation is transcriptionally regulated by the TCS EutV-EutW in response to ethanolamine. Mass spectrometry of isolated BMCs unveiled the identity of the constituent proteins EutL, EutM1, EutM2, and EutN. Consistent with the role of these proteins in BMC assembly and metabolism, deletion of eutN, eutL/eutM1/eutM2, or eutL/eutM1/eutM2/eutN not only affected BMC formation, but also ethanolamine utilization, causing cell growth defects with ethanolamine as nutrient. BMCs also assembled in fusobacteria cultured with placental cells or the culture media, a process that is dependent on the BMC shell proteins. Significantly, we show that the eutN mutant is defective in inducing preterm birth in a mouse model. Together, these results establish that BMC-mediated metabolism of ethanolamine is critical for fusobacterial virulence.

Project description:Cellular senescence impacts many physiological and pathological processes. A durable cell cycle arrest, inflammatory secretory phenotype, and metabolic reprogramming characterize it. Identifying common and specific metabolic liabilities in senescence provide novel inroads to exploit senescence targeting for health benefits. Here, we use dynamic transcriptome and metabolome profiling in different senescence subtypes to reveal common and specific metabolic signatures. Specifically, we pinpoint the homeostatic switch of glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) and phosphoethanolamine (PEtn) accumulation, intimately linking lipid metabolism to the senescence gene expression program. Mechanistically, p53-dependent glycerol kinase (GK) activation and post-translational inactivation of Phosphate Cytidylyltransferase 2- Ethanolamine (PCYT2) regulate this metabolic switch, which is senogenic. Conversely, G3P phosphatase (G3PP) and Ethanolamine-Phosphate Phospho-Lyase (ETNPPL)-based scavenging of G3P and PEtn is senomorphic. Collectively, our study ties the G3P-PEtn homeostatic switch to controlling lipid droplet biogenesis and phospholipid flux in senescent cells, providing a potential, novel therapeutic avenue for senescence targeting in pathophysiology.

Project description:Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of thymidine, deoxyuridine, and their analogs to the respective bases and 2-deoxy-D-ribose-1-phosphate. TP is identical to platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF). TP was reported to induce many angiogenic factors. However, the molecular mechanism of the TP function is still obscure. To elucidate the molecular basis for the TP function in human epidermoid carcinoma KB cells, we performed a whole genome-wide microarray analysis. Genes upregulated in KB cells overexpressing TP are supposed to represent potential molecular targets of TP in KB cells.
