RESUMEN
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae heat shock proteins Hsp31-34 are members of DJ-1/ThiJ/Pfpl superfamily that includes human DJ-1 (Park7), a protein involved in heritable Parkinsonism. Although, homologs of these proteins can be found in most organisms their functions are unclear. We have carried out a quantitative proteomics analysis of yeast cells devoid of the whole set of Hsp31 family of proteins, as a model of Parkinson Disease (PD), under conditions of glucose availability and starvation. The protein profile indicates a constitutive activation of the enzyme TORC1 that makes the cells more sensitive to stress conditions. TORC1 activation prevents the cells from diauxic shift and entry into the stationary phase inducing cell death. Sfp1 stays at the helm among the several transcription factors governing the cell adaptation to Hsp31-34 deficiency. We show that Sfp1 remains mainly in the nucleus likely releasing TORC1 from inhibition by cytosolic Sfp1. Impairment of glycolysis leads to increased levels of methylglyoxal and accumulation of glycated proteins. We also show an increase in proteasome subunits in the Hsp31-34 mutant, under the control of Rpn4 transcription factor. This increase is abnormally accompanied by a decrease in proteasomal activity which could lead to accumulation of aberrant proteins and contributing to cell death.

The aim of the present study was to define the role of Trx and Grx on metabolic thiol redox regulation and identify their protein and metabolite targets. The hepatocarcinoma-derived HepG2 cell line under both normal and oxidative/nitrosative conditions by overexpression of NO synthase (NOS3) was used as experimental model. Grx1 or Trx1 silencing caused conspicuous changes in the redox proteome reflected by significant changes in the reduced/oxidized ratios of specific Cys's including several glycolytic enzymes. Cys91 of peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) and Cys153 of phosphoglycerate mutase-1 (PGAM1), that are known to be involved in progression of tumor growth, are reported here for the first time as specific targets of Grx1. A group of proteins increased their CysRED/CysOX ratio upon Trx1 and/or Grx1 silencing, including caspase-3 Cys163, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) Cys247 and triose-phosphate isomerase (TPI) Cys255 likely by enhancement of NOS3 auto-oxidation. The activities of several glycolytic enzymes were also significantly affected. Glycolysis metabolic flux increased upon Trx1 silencing, whereas silencing of Grx1 had the opposite effect. Diversion of metabolic fluxes toward synthesis of fatty acids and phospholipids was observed in siRNA-Grx1 treated cells, while siRNA-Trx1 treated cells showed elevated levels of various sphingomyelins and ceramides and signs of increased protein degradation. Glutathione synthesis was stimulated by both treatments. These data indicate that Trx and Grx have both, common and specific protein Cys redox targets and that down regulation of either redoxin has markedly different metabolic outcomes. They reflect the delicate sensitivity of redox equilibrium to changes in any of the elements involved and the difficulty of forecasting metabolic responses to redox environmental changes.
