Discovery of Novel Antimicrobial Peptides from Varanus komodoensis (Komodo dragon) by Large Scale Analyses and De Novo Assisted Sequencing using Electron Transfer Dissociation Mass Spectrometry

Project description:We have employed a custom bioprospecing approach to identify cationic antimicrobial peptides from Komodo dragon plasma. Through these analyses we identified forty eight novel potential cationic antimicrobial peptides, with all but one of the identified peptides being derived from histone proteins. The antimicrobial effectiveness of eight of these peptides was evaluated against Pseudomonas aeruginosa 9027 and Staphylococcus aureus 25983, with seven peptides exhibiting antimicrobial activity against both microbes, and one only showing significant potency against Pseudomonas aeruginosa 9027. This study demonstrates the power and promise of our bioprospecting approach to CAMP discovery and it reveals the presence of a plethora of novel histone-derived antimicrobial peptides in the plasma of the dragon. These findings may have broader implications regarding the role that intact histones and histone-derived peptides play in defending the host from infection.

Novel assays monitoring direct GR protein activity exhibit high predictive power for ligand activity on endogenous GR gene targets

Project description:Exogenous glucocorticoids are widely used in the clinic for the treatment of inflammatory disorders and auto-immune diseases. Unfortunately, their use is hampered by many side effects and therapy resistance. Efforts to find more selective glucocorticoid receptor (GR) agonists and modulators (called SEGRAMs), able to separate anti-inflammatory effects via gene suppression from metabolic effects via gene activation, have been unsuccessful so far. In this study, we characterized a set of functionally diverse GR ligands in A549 cells, first using a panel of luciferase-based reporter gene assays evaluating GR-driven gene activation and gene suppression. We expanded this minimal assay set with novel luciferase-based read-outs monitoring GR protein levels, GR dimerization and GR Serine 211 (Ser211) phosphorylation status and compared their outcomes with compound effects on the mRNA levels of known GR target genes in A549 cells and primary hepatocytes. We found that luciferase reporters evaluating GR-driven gene activation and gene repression were not always reliable predictors for effects on endogenous target genes. Remarkably, our novel assay monitoring GR Ser211 phosphorylation levels proved to be the most reliable predictor for compound effects on almost all tested endogenous GR targets, both driven by gene activation and repression. The integration of this novel assay in existing screening platforms may therefore increase chances to find novel GR ligands with an improved therapeutic benefit.
