RESUMO

Although protein secretion was previously believed to be solely via ER/Golgi pathways, Golgi-independent secretion has now been described in both animals and plants. Secretion of the mannitol catabolic enzyme mannitol dehydrogenase (MTD) in response to the endogenous pathogen response signal salicylic acid (SA) was one of the first reports of unconventional protein secretion in plants. To begin assessing potential secretion-associated MTD protein interactors, we present here high-quality databases describing changes in MTD-interacting proteins following SA treatment of Arabidopsis thaliana cells expressing MTD.

RESUMO

Ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins are DNA dioxygenases that mediate active DNA demethylation. TET3 is the most highly expressed TET protein in thymic developing T cells. TET3, either independently or in cooperation with TET1 or TET2, has been implicated in T cell lineage specification by regulating DNA demethylation. However, TET-deficient mice exhibit complex phenotypes, suggesting that TET3 exerts multifaceted roles, potentially by interacting with other proteins. We performed liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry in primary developing T cells to identify TET3 interacting partners in endogenous, in vivo conditions. We discover TET3 interacting partners. Our data establish that TET3 participates in a plethora of fundamental biological processes, such as transcriptional regulation, RNA polymerase elongation, splicing, DNA repair, and DNA replication. This resource brings in the spotlight emerging functions of TET3 and sets the stage for systematic studies to dissect the precise mechanistic contributions of TET3 in shaping T cell biology.

RESUMO

An intriguing effect of short-term caloric restriction (CR) is the expansion of certain stem cell populations, including muscle stem cells (satellite cells), which facilitate an accelerated regenerative program after injury. Here, we utilized the MetRSL274G (MetRS) transgenic mouse to identify liver-secreted plasminogen as a candidate for regulating satellite cell expansion during short-term CR. Knockdown of circulating plasminogen prevents satellite cell expansion during short-term CR. Furthermore, loss of the plasminogen receptor KT (Plg-RKT) is also sufficient to prevent CR-related satellite cell expansion, consistent with direct signaling of plasminogen through the plasminogen receptor Plg-RKT/ERK kinase to promote proliferation of satellite cells. Importantly, we are able to replicate many of these findings in human participants from the CALERIE trial. Our results demonstrate that CR enhances liver protein secretion of plasminogen, which signals directly to the muscle satellite cell through Plg-RKT to promote proliferation and subsequent muscle resilience during CR.

RESUMO

Here, we present quantitative subcellular compartment-specific proteomic data from wildtype and DYT-TOR1A heterozygous mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) basally and following thapsigargin (Tg) treatment [1]. In this experiment, we generated MEFs from wild type (WT) and a heterozygous DYT-TOR1A mouse model of dystonia. Subsequently, these MEF cultures were treated with either 1 µM Tg or dimethylsulfoxide vehicle (Veh) for six hours. Following treatment, the cells were fractionated into nuclear and cytosolic fractions. Liquid chromatography, tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS)-based proteomic profiling identified 65,056 unique peptides and 4801 unique proteins across all samples. The data presented here provide subcellular compartment-specific proteomic information within a dystonia model system both basally and under cellular stress. These data can inform future experiments focused on studying the function of TorsinA, the protein encoded by TOR1A, and its potential role in nucleocytoplasmic transport and proteostasis. In addition, the information in this article can also inform future mechanistic studies investigating the relationship between DYT-TOR1A dystonia and the cellular stress response to advance understanding of the pathogenesis of dystonia.

RESUMO

Mutation of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein and SCAR homology (WASH) complex subunit, SWIP, is implicated in human intellectual disability, but the cellular etiology of this association is unknown. We identify the neuronal WASH complex proteome, revealing a network of endosomal proteins. To uncover how dysfunction of endosomal SWIP leads to disease, we generate a mouse model of the human WASHC4c.3056C>G mutation. Quantitative spatial proteomics analysis of SWIPP1019R mouse brain reveals that this mutation destabilizes the WASH complex and uncovers significant perturbations in both endosomal and lysosomal pathways. Cellular and histological analyses confirm that SWIPP1019R results in endo-lysosomal disruption and uncover indicators of neurodegeneration. We find that SWIPP1019R not only impacts cognition, but also causes significant progressive motor deficits in mice. A retrospective analysis of SWIPP1019R patients reveals similar movement deficits in humans. Combined, these findings support the model that WASH complex destabilization, resulting from SWIPP1019R, drives cognitive and motor impairments via endo-lysosomal dysfunction in the brain.


Cells in the brain need to regulate and transport the proteins and nutrients stored inside them. They do this by sorting and packaging the contents they want to move in compartments called endosomes, which then send these packages to other parts of the cell. If the components involved in endosome trafficking mutate, this can lead to 'traffic jams' where proteins pile up inside the cell and stop it from working normally. In 2011, researchers found that children who had a mutation in the gene for WASHC4 ­ a protein involved in endosome trafficking ­ had trouble learning. However, it remained unclear how this mutation affects the role of WASCH4 and impacts the behavior of brain cells. To answer this question, Courtland, Bradshaw et al. genetically engineered mice to carry an equivalent mutation to the one identified in humans. Experiments showed that the brain cells of the mutant mice had fewer WASHC4 proteins, and lower levels of other proteins involved in endosome trafficking. The mutant mice also had abnormally large endosomes in their brain cells and elevated levels of proteins that break down the cell's contents, resulting in a build-up of cellular debris. Together, these findings suggest that the mutation causes abnormal trafficking in brain cells. Next, Courtland, Bradshaw et al. compared the behavior of adult and young mice with and without the mutation. Mice carrying the mutation were found to have learning difficulties and showed abnormal movements which became more exaggerated as they aged, similar to people with Parkinson's disease. With this result, Courtland, Bradshaw et al. reviewed the medical records of the patients with the mutation and discovered that these children also had problems with their movement. These findings help explain what is happening inside brain cells when the gene for WASHC4 is mutated, and how disrupting endosome trafficking can lead to behavioral changes. Ultimately, understanding how learning and movement difficulties arise, on a molecular level, could lead to new therapeutic strategies to prevent, manage or treat them in the future.
