The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex catalyzes the conversion from pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA). Thus far, the connection between lysine acetylation and pyruvate metabolism has not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, we show that AcP could acetylate Escherichia coli pyruvate dehydrogenase (AceE) in vitro and in vivo, which could be reversed by protein lysine deacetylase (CobB). In vitro treatment of AceE with AcP also causes increased phosphorylation of the protein, whereas deleting ackA does not affect the phosphorylation of the protein. As a result, in vitro treatment of AceE by AcP leads to decreased enzymatic activity. In contrast, deleting ackA leads to increased acetylation and enzymatic activity of AceE, and deleting pta results in the decreased acetylation and enzymatic activity of AceE. As expected, deleting pta in E. coli causes pyruvate accumulation. Although deleting ackA also causes pyruvate accumulation, decreased expression of the two genes involved in pyruvate metabolism ( ldhA and poxB) is observed in the mutant, indicating that AcP could affect pyruvate metabolism by other routes in addition to modulating the AceE activity. Thus, our results demonstrate that intracellular AcP could modulate pyruvate metabolism in E. coli. For the first time, a linkage between AcP-mediated protein lysine acetylation, pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, and pyruvate metabolism is established.","PeriodicalId":6978,"journal":{"name":"Acta biochimica et biophysica Sinica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144075005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

WD repeat-containing protein 5 (WDR5), a core component of the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) methyltransferase complex, directly binds to kinesin family member 2A (Kif2A) to regulate these mitotic events. Despite the importance of this interaction, its structural basis for Kif2A recognition by WDR5 remains unclear. Here, we determine the crystal structure of WDR5 in complex with a Kif2A-derived peptide (residues 114-122) at a resolution of 1.85 Å. Structural analysis reveals that Kif2A engages both the WIN and S7 sites of WDR5 via Arg117 and Ser121, with Ser121 forming hydrogen bonds with WDR5 Tyr191 and Lys259, driving Tyr191 rotation and opening the S7 pocket. Additional structures of WDR5 complexed with truncated or mutated Kif2A peptides and a WDR5 Y191F variant highlight the dynamic nature of Tyr191. Notably, anti-WDR5 compounds exhibit a similar binding mode at the WDR5 WIN-S7 site. The results of mutagenesis combined with isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) assays underscore the critical roles of Arg117 and Ser121 in mediating the binding of Kif2A to WDR5. In summary, our findings provide atomic-level insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the non-canonical mitotic function of the MLL/WDR5 complex and highlight WIN-S7 sites as promising therapeutic targets for diseases associated with chromosomal instability, such as cancers.","PeriodicalId":6978,"journal":{"name":"Acta biochimica et biophysica Sinica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mutations in these two proteins cause oligospermia or azoospermia in human males. It has been reported that the heterodimer composed of MEIOB and SPATA22 recognizes and binds to the single-strand DNA (ssDNA) protected by the replication protein A (RPA) complex to promote DNA damage repair during homologous recombination. However, the amino acid sequences of the two proteins are inconsistent in humans and rodents, which leads to functional differences in meiosis. In this study, human-derived MEIOB (hMEIOB) and SPATA22 (hSPATA22) are expressed and purified for electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), magnetic tweezer (MT) assay and bio-layer interferometry (BLI) assay to analyze the ssDNA binding patterns. The results show that hMEIOB has low ssDNA-binding affinity and stability alone, but hSPATA22 binds to ssDNA faster and more stably and promotes ssDNA condensation. Strong binding affinity and stability to ssDNA are present when the hMEIOB-hSPATA22 heterodimer is formed. Moreover, we find that multiple hMEIOB-hSPATA22 heterodimers spontaneously aggregate in vitro. hRPA complex weakens the binding affinity of hMEIOB, hSPATA22 and hMEIOB-hSPATA22 heterodimer to ssDNA, and it can also bind to hSPATA22 and hMEIOB-hSPATA22 heterodimer in vitro, which might be related to the proven function of RPA complex to protect ssDNA and recruit proteins related to DNA damage repair during meiosis.

While CAPS provides limited resistance, with plating efficiencies ranging from 10 -5 to 10 -1, further optimization is needed. To enhance efficacy, we design a double-site-targeting CRISPR-Cas9-based antiphage system (D-CAPS). D-CAPS demonstrates complete resistance, with no plaques observed even at a high multiplicity of infection (MOI of 2), and growth curve analysis reveals that antiphage E. coli strains grow normally, similar to the wild-type strain, even at a high multiplicity of infection. Furthermore, D-CAPS is effective against BL21(DE3) strains, showing strong resistance and demonstrating its versatility across different E . coli strains. Protein expression analysis via green fluorescent protein confirms that E. coli carrying D-CAPS could maintain normal protein expression levels even in the presence of phages, comparable to wild-type strains. Overall, D-CAPS offers a robust and versatile approach to enhancing E. coli resistance to phages, providing a practical solution for protecting industrial E. coli strains and improving fermentation processes.","PeriodicalId":6978,"journal":{"name":"Acta biochimica et biophysica Sinica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143959625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the genetic basis of myelosuppression side effects remains elusive, greatly hindering personalized therapeutic approaches. In this study, we perform a comprehensive genome-wide association analysis on 491 NSCLC patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy, examining 4,690,998 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to identify relevant genetic variants. LDBlockShow, FUMA, and MAGMA are utilized to explore linkage disequilibrium, expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), chromatin interaction, and conduct gene-based and gene set-based analysis of candidate SNPs. The GWAS results reveal that rs6856089 and its linked SNPs are significantly associated with platinum-based chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. Specifically, patients with the A allele of rs6856089 have a significantly lower risk of myelosuppression (odds ratio (OR) = 0.1300, P = 7.59 × 10 -8). Furthermore, gene-based analysis reveals that EMCN ( P = 2.47 × 10 -5), which encodes endomucin, a marker for hematopoietic stem cells, might mediate myelosuppression.
