Tau is subject to a range of post-translational modifications, including proteolysis, that can promote its aggregation. Neuroinflammation is a hallmark of tauopathies and evidence is growing for a role of CD8+ T cells in disease pathogenesis. CD8+ T cells release granzyme proteases but what role these proteases play in neuronal dysfunction is currently lacking. Here, we identified that granzyme A (GzmA) is present in brain tissue and proteolytically cleaves tau. Mass spectrometric analysis of tau fragments produced on digestion of tau with GzmA identified three cleavage sites at R194-S195, R209-S210 and K240-S241. Mutation of the critical Arg or Lys residues at the cleavage sites in tau or chemical inhibition of GzmA blocked the proteolysis of tau by GzmA. Development of a semi-targeted mass spectrometry approach identified peptides in tauopathy brain tissue corresponding to proteolysis by GzmA at R209-S210 and K240-S241 in tau. When expressed in cells the GzmA-cleaved C-terminal fragments of tau were highly phosphorylated and aggregated upon incubation of the cells with tauopathy brain seed. The C-terminal fragment tau195-441 was able to transfer between cells and promote aggregation of tau in acceptor cells, indicating the propensity for such tau fragments to propagate between cells.

However, norspermidine is also found in other species of bacteria and archaea, and in diverse single-celled eukaryotes, chlorophyte algae and plants that do not encode the known norspermidine biosynthetic pathway. We reasoned that products of polyamine catabolism could be an alternative route to norspermidine production. 1,3-diaminopropane is formed from terminal catabolism of spermine and spermidine, and norspermidine can be formed from catabolism of thermospermine. We found that the single-celled chlorophyte alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii thermospermine synthase (CrACL5) did not aminopropylate exogenously-derived 1,3-diaminopropane efficiently when expressed in Escherichia coli. In contrast, it completely converted all E. coli native spermidine to thermospermine. Co-expression in E. coli of the polyamine oxidase 5 from lycophyte plant Selaginella lepidophylla (SelPAO5), together with the CrACL5 thermospermine synthase, converted almost all thermospermine to norspermidine. Although CrACL5 was efficient at aminopropylating norspermidine to form tetraamine norspermine, SelPAO5 oxidizes norspermine back to norspermidine, with the balance of flux being inclined fully to norspermine oxidation. The steady-state polyamine content of E. coli co-expressing thermospermine synthase CrACL5 and polyamine oxidase SelPAO5 was an almost total replacement of spermidine by norspermidine.

Listeriolysin O (LLO) is a prominent member in the CDC family. As documented for the other CDCs, membrane cholesterol is essential for the pore-forming functionality of LLO. However, it remains obscure how exactly cholesterol facilitates its pore formation. Here, we show that cholesterol promotes both membrane-binding and oligomerization of LLO. We demonstrate cholesterol not only facilitates membrane-binding, it also enhances the saturation threshold of LLO-membrane association, and alteration of the cholesterol-recognition motif (CRM) in the LLO mutant (LLOT515G-L516G) compromises its pore-forming efficacy. Interestingly, such defect of LLOT515G-L516G could be rescued in the presence of higher membrane cholesterol levels, suggesting cholesterol can augment the pore-forming efficacy of LLO even in the absence of a direct toxin-cholesterol interaction. Furthermore, we find the membrane-binding and pore-forming abilities of LLOT515G-L516G, but not those of LLO, correlate with the cholesterol-dependent rigidity/ordering of the membrane lipid bilayer. Our data further suggest that the line tension derived from the lipid phase heterogeneity of the cholesterol-containing membranes could play a pivotal role in LLO function, particularly in the absence of cholesterol binding. Therefore, in addition to its receptor-like role, we conclude cholesterol can further facilitate the pore-forming, membrane-damaging functionality of LLO by asserting the optimal physicochemical environment in membranes. To the best of our knowledge, this aspect of the cholesterol-mediated regulation of the CDC mode of action has not been appreciated thus far.","PeriodicalId":8825,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142233396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Low chill buds (IN) subjected to ERGER treatment exhibited shifts in metabolite profiles similar to those resembling high chill buds that were evident as soon as 3 days after treatment. We hypothesise that chilling induces a metabolic shift which primes bud outgrowth by mobilising lipophilic energy reserves, enhancing phosphate availability by switching from membrane phospholipids to galactolipids and enhancing the availability of free amino acids for de novo protein synthesis by increasing protein turnover.
