However, how distinct glutarate modifications are regulated is unclear. Here, we uncover a deglutarylation pathway that couples amino acid catabolism to tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle function. By examining how glutarate can form conjugates with lipoate, an essential mitochondrial modification for the TCA cycle, we find that Alpha Beta Hydrolase Domain 11 (ABHD11) protects against the formation of glutaryl-lipoyl adducts. Mechanistically, ABHD11 acts as a thioesterase to selectively remove glutaryl adducts from lipoate, maintaining integrity of the TCA cycle. Functionally, ABHD11 influences the metabolic reprogramming of human T cells, increasing central memory T cell formation and attenuating oxidative phosphorylation. These results uncover ABHD11 as a selective deglutarylating enzyme and highlight that targeting ABHD11 offers a potential approach to metabolically reprogramme cytotoxic T cells.","PeriodicalId":501590,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142189953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, we used advanced immuno-freeze-etch electron microscopy to visualise the vRNP packaging process and atomic force live-cell imaging (AFM) to examine the motility of membrane cytoskeletal actin filaments. In the cytoplasm, vRNPs were mainly localised on mottled membrane-like structures, suggesting intracellular trafficking through such structures. After reaching the cytoplasmic side surface of the plasma membrane, vRNPs formed many aggregates while associating with actin filaments. Antibody labelling also detected myosin along actin filaments entangled in vRNPs. Blocking myosin activity with blebbistatin prevented the active movement of membrane cytoskeletal actin filaments just below the plasma membrane visualised by AFM and abrogated proper aggregation of vRNPs.

The myosin chaperone UNC-45 and its co-chaperones, Hsp90 and Hsp70, are required for the initial folding of the myosin head domain and the assembly of myosin into thick filaments. There is increasing evidence that the UNC-45 chaperone system has an important role during aging to preserve sarcomere organization and myosin levels, and its decline may be a key factor in sarcopenia, the reduced skeletal muscle mass and function found in the elderly without an underlying condition. Cardiac muscle is another type of striated muscle but the role of the UNC-45 system has not yet been examined in the aging heart. Here we show that in the mouse heart, during aging, there is a decline in the levels of myosin, Unc-45b and Hsp70, but not Hsp90, and no obvious changes in sarcomere organization. In contrast, it is known that in skeletal muscle, there is a decline in both Unc-45b and Hsp90, and we show here that there is no decline in Hsp70. The decreased level of Hsp70 specifically in the heart could have broader implications than seem apparent as it could affect the folding and assembly of many other proteins in the aging heart and contribute to cardiomyopathies. Since Hsp70 mediates protein stabilization and prevents protein aggregation, its age-dependent reduction could potentially affect diseases such as amyloidosis.","PeriodicalId":501590,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142189930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In CF, highly viscous mucus is secreted in the airways preventing its clearance, leading to lung infections and respiratory failure. A major challenge in treating CF patients has been the presence of more than 2,000 different CFTR mutations or due to the absence of CFTR expression. CFTR is among the 34 major proteins composing the 100 nm porosome secretory machinery in the human airway epithelia, involved in mucin secretion. The airways is coated with a thin film of mucus, composed primarily of mucin MUC5AC and MUC5B. Sputum from patients with CF show a >70% decrease in MUC5B and MUC5AC secretion. Our studies using differentiated 3D cultures of human airway epithelial cell line, also demonstrate loss of both chloride and mucus secretion following exposure to CFTR inhibitors thiazolidinone 172 or the hydrazide GlyH101. Our studies show that human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells with ΔF508 CFTR mutation, affects nearly a dozen porosome proteins including CFTR. Therefore, we hypothesized that the introduction of normal functional porosomes carrying wild type CFTR into the cell plasma membrane of CF cells would rescue from all forms of CF. Air liquid interface (ALI) 3D differentiated HBE WT-CFTR cells and ΔF508-CFTR CF HBE cell cultures mimicking normal lung physiology, responding to CFTR inhibitors and CF corrector and modulator drugs Tezacaftor, Ivacaftor and TRIKAFTA, was used in the study. Introduction of functional porosome complexes obtained from WT-CFTR HBE cells into the plasma membrane (PM) of ΔF508-CFTR CF cells, was demonstrated by an increase in PM-associated CFTR using Magnify expansion microscopy. Mucin secretion assays demonstrate porosome reconstitution to restore mucin secretion more than twice as effectively as TRIKAFTA. These results are further supported by preliminary nasal potential different studies in ΔF508 mice, where treatment of the nasal passage with porosome isolates from WT-CFTR HBE cells, restore chloride secretion in the nasal passage of mice, a further validation of the highly effective porosome reconstitution therapy for CF.","PeriodicalId":501590,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142224506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Intracellular nanovesicles (INVs) are a large class of transport vesicles that likely comprises of multiple subtypes. Here, we define the INV proteome and find that it is molecularly heterogeneous, and enriched for transmembrane cargo molecules including integrins, transporters, and ATG9A, a lipid scramblase associated with autophagy. ATG9A is known to reside in 'ATG9 vesicles': small vesicles that contribute to autophagosome formation. Using in-cell vesicle capture assays we found that ATG9A, as well as other ATG9 vesicle cargos, were in INVs. Quantitative analysis showed that virtually all ATG9 vesicles are INVs, but that only ~20% of INVs are ATG9 vesicles, suggesting that ATG9 vesicles are in fact a subtype of INV, which we term ATG9A-flavor INVs.

One of the evolutionarily conserved functions of STUbL is to promote changes in the nuclear positioning of DNA lesions, targeting them to the nuclear periphery. In Schizossacharomyces pombe, the STUbL Slx8 is a regulator of SUMOylated proteins and promotes replication stress tolerance by counteracting the toxicity of SUMO conjugates. In order to study the dynamic dialectic between Ubiquitinylation and SUMOylation in the nuclear space of the S. pombe genome, we analyzed Slx8 localization. Unexpectedly, we did not detect replication stress-induced Slx8 foci. However, we discovered that Slx8 forms a single nuclear focus, enriched at the nuclear periphery, which marks both clustered centromeres at the spindle pole body and the silent mating type region. The formation of this single Slx8 focus requires the E3 SUMO ligase Pli1, poly-SUMOylation and the histone methyl transferase Clr4 that is responsible for the heterochromatin histone mark H3-K9 methylation. Finally, we established that Slx8 promotes centromere clustering and gene silencing at heterochromatin domains.

Desmosome gene mutations can lead to arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM). Among ACM, pathogenic desmoplakin (DSP) variants cause a distinctive cardiomyopathy with excessive cardiac fibrosis that could precede ventricular dysfunction. DSP variants are also linked to other fibrotic diseases. Whether DSP plays any role in pathological fibrosis remain unknown. Methods: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are resident fibroblast-like cells that are responsible for fibrogenesis in most organs, including hearts. We first used unbiased genome-wide analyses to generate cardiac fibroblasts-like, induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs from normal donors and ACM patients with DSP mutations. We then studied the fibrogenic responses of cardiac MSCs to transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-?1) using Western/Co-IP, autophagy assay, gene knockdowns/over-expressions, genomic analyses, mouse DSP knockdown models, immunostaining, and qPCR. Results: TGF?1 induced excessive accumulations of vimentin (VIM)/fibrillar collagens, and over-activated fibrotic genes in DSP-mutant MSCs when compared to normal MSCs. In normal MSCs, VIMs bind to wild-type DSP during normal fibrogenesis after TGF?1. DSP-mutant MSCs exhibited a haploinsufficient phenotype with increased DSP-unbound VIMs that sequestered beclin-1 (BECN1) from activating autophagy and caveolin-1 (CAV1)-mediated endocytosis. Decreased autophagy caused collagen accumulations and diminished CAV1 endocytosis resulted in abnormal CAV1 plaque formation that over-activated fibrotic genes [COL1A1, COL3A1, and fibronectin (FN)] via heightened p38 activities after TGF?1. Genome-wide analysis and DSP knockdown in mouse fibroblasts confirmed this novel role of DSP mutations in pathological fibrosis. Overexpression of VIM-binding domains of DSP could suppress pathological fibrosis by increasing collagen autophagic degradation and decreasing fibrotic gene expressions. Conclusions: Our data reveal that DSP deficiency in MSCs/fibroblasts leads to exaggerated fibrogenesis in DSP-cardiomyopathy by decreasing BECN1 availability for autophagy and CAV1-endocytosis. Overexpression of VIM binding domains of DSP could be a new strategy to treat pathological fibrosis.","PeriodicalId":501590,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142224570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Drosophila, MT stability, polarity, abundance, and orientation undergo dynamic changes across developmental stages. In our effort to identify novel microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) that regulate MTs in the Drosophila ovary, we identified a previously uncharacterized gene, CG18190, encoding a novel MT end-binding (EB) protein, which we propose to name EB-SUN. We show that EB-SUN colocalizes with EB1 at growing microtubule plus-ends in Drosophila S2 cells. Tissue-specific and developmental expression profiles from Paralog Explorer reveal that EB-SUN is predominantly expressed in the ovary and early embryos, while EB1 is ubiquitously expressed. Furthermore, as early as oocyte determination, EB-SUN comets are highly concentrated in oocytes during oogenesis. EB-SUN knockout (KO) results in a decrease in MT density at the onset of mid-oogenesis (Stage 7) and delays oocyte growth during late mid-oogenesis (Stage 9). Combining EB-SUN KO with EB1 knockdown (KD) in germ cells significantly further reduced MT density at Stage 7. Notably, all eggs from EB-SUN KO/EB1 KD females fail to hatch, unlike single gene depletion, suggesting a functional redundancy between these two EB proteins during embryogenesis.

They are the only technique that provide real time, spatially resolved kinetic data for lipid dynamics in living cells. Despite clear strengths, these tools also carry significant drawbacks; most notably, lipid molecules bound to biosensors cannot engage with their effectors, causing inhibition. Here, we show that although PI 3-kinase (PI3K)-mediated activation of Akt is not significantly reduced in a cell population transfected with a PH-Akt1 PIP3/PI(3,4)P2 biosensor, single cells expressing the PH-Akt at visible levels (used for live-cell imaging) have no activated Akt at all. Tagging endogenous AKT1 with neonGreen at its genomic locus reveals its EGF-mediated translocation to the plasma membrane, accumulating at densities of ~0.3 molecules/μm2. Co-transfection with the PH-Akt biosensor or other PIP3 biosensors completely blocks this translocation, despite robust recruitment of the biosensors. A partial inhibition is even observed with PI(3,4)P2-selective biosensor. However, we found that expressing lipid biosensors at low levels, comparable with those of endogenous AKT, produced no such inhibition. Helpfully, these single-molecule biosensors revealed improved dynamic range and kinetic fidelity compared with over-expressed biosensor. This approach represents a less invasive way to probe spatiotemporal dynamics of the PI3K pathway in living cells.","PeriodicalId":501590,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142189960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
