These Fe(III)-siderophore complexes are part of the siderophore-mediated Fe(III) uptake mechanism, which is the most widespread strategy used by microbes to access sufficient iron for growth. Microbial competition for limited iron is met by biosynthetic gene clusters that encode for the biosynthesis of siderophores with variable molecular scaffolds and iron binding motifs. Some classes of siderophores have well understood biosynthetic pathways, which opens opportunities to further expand structural and property diversity using precursor-directed biosynthesis (PDB). PDB involves augmenting culture medium with non-native substrates to compete against native substrates during metabolite assembly. This chapter provides background information and technical details of conducting a PDB experiment towards producing a range of different analogues of the archetypal hydroxamic acid siderophore desferrioxamine B. This includes processes to semi-purify the culture supernatant and the use of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for downstream analysis of analogues and groups of constitutional isomers.","PeriodicalId":18662,"journal":{"name":"Methods in enzymology","volume":"702 ","pages":"121-145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142000399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, the molecular causes for mitochondrial dysfunction and potential protection mechanisms have become a major topic in modern cell biology. Apart from defects in their structural integrity, problems in mitochondrial protein biogenesis, including polypeptide transport, folding and assembly to active enzymes, all may result in some degree of functional defects of the organelle. An accumulation of misfolded polypeptides inside mitochondria, confounded by the dual source of mitochondrial polypeptides, will result in the formation of protein aggregates. Such aggregate accumulation bears a cell-toxic potential, resulting in mitochondrial and correlated cellular damages, summarized in the term \"aggregate proteotoxicity\". Here, we discuss methods to analyze protein aggregation in the mitochondrial matrix compartment. We also address techniques to characterize the biochemical mechanisms that reduce aggregate proteotoxicity, the disaggregation or resolubilization of aggregated polypeptides and the sequestration and neutralization of mitochondrial aggregates at specific sites inside a cell.","PeriodicalId":18662,"journal":{"name":"Methods in enzymology","volume":"707 ","pages":"475-498"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142564294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this chapter, we describe assays for engineered disulfide bond formation and cysteine specific crosslinking to analyze the rearrangement of translocase subunits or to probe protein-protein interactions between precursor proteins and translocase subunits. Such assays were used to characterize the translocase of the outer membrane, the presequence translocase of the inner membrane and the sorting and assembly machinery for the biogenesis of β-Barrel proteins. Moreover, these approaches were also employed to determine the translocation path of precursor proteins (identification of import receptors and specific domains required for translocation) as well as the analysis, location and translocase subunit dependence for the formation of β-Barrel proteins. Here we describe how engineered disulfide bond formation and cysteine specific crosslinking assays are planned and performed and discuss important aspects for its application to study mitochondrial protein translocation.","PeriodicalId":18662,"journal":{"name":"Methods in enzymology","volume":"707 ","pages":"257-298"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142564306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Precursor processing by the mitochondrial presequence proteases is directly coupled to the proteolytic turnover of the cleaved targeting signal by mitochondrial presequence peptidases. Dysfunction of these enzymes is associated with a variety of human diseases, including neurological disorders, cardiomyopathies and renal diseases. In this chapter, we describe experimental approaches to study the activity of the major mitochondrial presequence protease (MPP) and of the presequence peptidases. In vitro assays and soluble mitochondrial extracts allow the assessment and experimental manipulation of peptidase and protease activity using immunoblotting, fluorescence measurements and autoradiography as readouts. In particular, the assays allow manipulation at multiple levels including in vivo, in organello or in soluble extracts/in vitro. Purification of the yeast heterodimeric MPP allows in vitro reconstitution of the initial presequence processing step using radiolabeled precursors as substrates. Application of soluble mitochondrial extracts enables direct assessment of MPP processing and presequence peptide turnover which can be easily manipulated and is uncoupled from protein translocation across the mitochondrial membranes. The techniques presented in this chapter allow in-depth analysis of precursor processing and presequence turnover as well as direct assessment of the impact of patient mutations on the activity of the presequence processing machinery.","PeriodicalId":18662,"journal":{"name":"Methods in enzymology","volume":"706 ","pages":"193-213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142504054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
