The serine/threonine protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) regulates hormone and stress-induced signaling networks. Unlike other phosphoprotein phosphatases, PP5 contains both regulatory and catalytic domains and is further regulated through post-translational modifications (PTMs). Here we identify that SUMOylation of K430 in the catalytic domain of PP5 regulates phosphatase activity. Additionally, phosphorylation of PP5-T362 is pre-requisite for SUMOylation, suggesting the ordered addition of PTMs regulates PP5 function in cells. Using the glucocorticoid receptor, a well known substrate for PP5, we demonstrate that SUMOylation results in substrate release from PP5. We harness this information to create a non-SUMOylatable K430R mutant as a 'substrate trap' and globally identified novel PP5 substrate candidates. Lastly, we generated a consensus dephosphorylation motif using known substrates, and verified its presence in the new candidate substrates. This study unravels the impact of cross talk of SUMOylation and phosphorylation on PP5 phosphatase activity and substrate release in cells.

丝氨酸/苏氨酸蛋白磷酸酶 5(PP5)调节激素和压力诱导的信号网络。与其他磷蛋白磷酸酶不同,PP5 同时含有调节结构域和催化结构域,并通过翻译后修饰(PTMs)进一步调控。在这里,我们发现 PP5 催化域 K430 的 SUMOylation 可调控磷酸酶的活性。此外,PP5-T362 的磷酸化是 SUMOylation 的先决条件,这表明 PTM 的有序添加调节 PP5 在细胞中的功能。糖皮质激素受体是 PP5 众所周知的底物,我们利用糖皮质激素受体证明了 SUMO 化会导致 PP5 释放底物。我们利用这一信息创建了一个不可SUMOylatable的K430R突变体作为 "底物陷阱",并在全球范围内鉴定了新的PP5候选底物。最后,我们利用已知底物生成了共识去磷酸化基团,并在新的候选底物中验证了它的存在。这项研究揭示了 SUMOylation 和磷酸化交叉作用对细胞中 PP5 磷酸酶活性和底物释放的影响。

Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) from pancreatic beta cells is a principal mechanism for systemic glucose homeostasis, of which regulatory mechanisms are still unclear. Here we show that kinesin molecular motor KIF5B is essential for GSIS through maintaining the voltage-gated calcium channel CaV1.2 levels, by facilitating an Hsp70-to-Hsp90 chaperone exchange to pass through the quality control in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Phenotypic analyses of KIF5B conditional knockout (cKO) mouse beta cells revealed significant abolishment of glucose-stimulated calcium transients, which altered the behaviors of insulin granules via abnormally stabilized cortical F-actin. KIF5B and Hsp90 colocalize to microdroplets on ER sheets, where CaV1.2 but not Kir6.2 is accumulated. In the absence of KIF5B, CaV1.2 fails to be transferred from Hsp70 to Hsp90 via STIP1, and is likely degraded via the proteasomal pathway. KIF5B and Hsc70 overexpression increased CaV1.2 expression via enhancing its chaperone binding. Thus, ER sheets may serve as the place of KIF5B- and Hsp90-dependent chaperone exchange, which predominantly facilitates CaV1.2 production in beta cells and properly enterprises GSIS against diabetes.

胰岛β细胞的葡萄糖刺激胰岛素分泌(GSIS)是全身葡萄糖平衡的主要机制,其调控机制尚不清楚。这里我们发现驱动蛋白分子马达 KIF5B 通过促进 Hsp70 到 Hsp90 的伴侣交换以通过内质网(ER)的质量控制,维持电压门控钙通道 CaV1.2 的水平,从而对 GSIS 起着至关重要的作用。对KIF5B条件性基因敲除(cKO)小鼠β细胞的表型分析表明,葡萄糖刺激的钙离子瞬态显著消失,这通过异常稳定的皮质F-肌动蛋白改变了胰岛素颗粒的行为。KIF5B 和 Hsp90 共同定位到 ER 片上的微滴,CaV1.2 而非 Kir6.2 在这些微滴中聚集。在 KIF5B 缺失的情况下,CaV1.2 无法通过 STIP1 从 Hsp70 转移到 Hsp90,很可能通过蛋白酶体途径降解。KIF5B 和 Hsc70 的过表达可通过增强与其伴侣蛋白的结合来增加 CaV1.2 的表达。因此,ER 片可能是 KIF5B 和 Hsp90 依赖性伴侣交换的场所,它主要促进了 CaV1.2 在β细胞中的产生,并适当促进 GSIS 抗糖尿病。

Apidaecin 1b (Api), the first characterized Type II Proline-rich antimicrobial peptide (PrAMP), is encoded in the honey bee genome. It inhibits bacterial growth by binding in the nascent peptide exit tunnel of the ribosome after the release of the completed protein and trapping the release factors. By genome mining, we have identified 71 PrAMPs encoded in insect genomes as pre-pro-polyproteins. Having chemically synthesized and tested the activity of 26 peptides, we demonstrate that despite significant sequence variation in the N-terminal sequence, the majority of the PrAMPs that retain the conserved C-terminal sequence of Api are able to trap the ribosome at the stop codons and induce stop codon readthrough-all hallmarks of Type II PrAMP mode of action. Some of the characterized PrAMPs exhibit superior antibacterial activity in comparison with Api. The newly solved crystallographic structures of the ribosome complexed with Api and with the more active peptide Fva1 from the stingless bee demonstrate the universal placement of the PrAMPs' C-terminal pharmacophore in the post-release ribosome despite variations in their N-terminal sequence.

Apidaecin 1b (Api)是蜜蜂基因组中编码的第一个富含脯氨酸的第二类抗菌肽(PrAMP)。它能在完成蛋白质释放后结合到核糖体的新生肽出口隧道中,并捕获释放因子,从而抑制细菌生长。通过基因组挖掘,我们发现了昆虫基因组中编码的 71 种前多聚蛋白 PrAMPs。通过化学合成和测试 26 种肽的活性,我们证明尽管 N 端序列存在显著差异,但保留 Api 保守 C 端序列的大多数 PrAMPs 都能在终止密码子处捕获核糖体并诱导终止密码子的读取--这些都是第二类 PrAMP 作用模式的标志。与 Api 相比,一些具有特征的 PrAMPs 表现出更强的抗菌活性。新近解决的与 Api 和来自无刺蜂的活性更强的多肽 Fva1 复合物的核糖体晶体结构表明,尽管 PrAMPs 的 N 端序列不同,但它们的 C 端药效团普遍位于释放后的核糖体中。

The nucleoskeleton is essential for nuclear architecture as well as genome integrity and gene expression. In addition to lamins, titin or spectrins, dynamic actin filament polymerization has emerged as a potential intranuclear structural element but its functions are less well explored. Here we found that calcium elevations trigger rapid nuclear actin assembly requiring the nuclear membrane protein SUN2 independently of its function as a component of the LINC complex. Instead, SUN2 colocalized and associated with the formin and actin nucleator INF2 in the nuclear envelope in a calcium-regulated manner. Moreover, SUN2 is required for active RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) clustering in response to calcium elevations. Thus, our data uncover a SUN2-formin module linking the nuclear envelope to intranuclear actin assembly to promote signal-dependent spatial reorganization of active RNA Pol II.

核骨架对核结构、基因组完整性和基因表达至关重要。除了片蛋白、钛蛋白或光谱蛋白外,动态肌动蛋白丝聚合也已成为一种潜在的核内结构元素,但对其功能的探索还较少。在这里,我们发现钙离子升高会触发核肌动蛋白的快速组装,这需要核膜蛋白 SUN2,而不依赖于它作为 LINC 复合物成分的功能。相反,SUN2 以一种钙调控的方式与核包膜中的形蛋白和肌动蛋白成核因子 INF2 共同定位和关联。此外,SUN2 也是活性 RNA 聚合酶 II(RNA Pol II)在钙离子升高时聚集所必需的。因此,我们的数据揭示了连接核膜与核内肌动蛋白组装的 SUN2-formin模块,以促进活性 RNA Pol II 的信号依赖性空间重组。

Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is an X-linked disorder due to in-frame mutations in the DMD gene, leading to a less abundant and truncated dystrophin. BMD is less common and severe than Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) as well as less investigated. To accelerate the search for innovative treatments, we developed a rat model of BMD by deleting the exons 45-47 of the Dmd gene. Here, we report a functional and histopathological evaluation of these rats during their first year of life, compared to DMD and control littermates. BMD rats exhibit moderate damage to locomotor and diaphragmatic muscles but suffer from a progressive cardiomyopathy. Single nuclei RNA-seq analysis of cardiac samples revealed shared transcriptomic abnormalities in BMD and DMD rats and highlighted an altered end-addressing of TMEM65 and Connexin-43 at the intercalated disc, along with electrocardiographic abnormalities. Our study documents the natural history of a translational preclinical model of BMD and reports a cellular mechanism for the cardiac dysfunction in BMD and DMD offering opportunities to further investigate the organization role of dystrophin in intercellular communication.

贝克型肌营养不良症(BMD)是一种 X 连锁疾病,是由于 DMD 基因发生框内突变,导致肌营养不良蛋白含量减少并被截断。与杜氏肌营养不良症(DMD)相比,贝氏肌营养不良症并不常见,病情也不严重,研究也较少。为了加快寻找创新治疗方法,我们通过删除 Dmd 基因的 45-47 号外显子,建立了一个 BMD 大鼠模型。在此,我们报告了对这些大鼠在出生后第一年的功能和组织病理学评估,并与 DMD 和对照组同窝大鼠进行了比较。BMD 大鼠的运动肌和膈肌表现出中度损伤,但患有进行性心肌病。对心脏样本进行的单核 RNA-seq 分析显示,BMD 大鼠和 DMD 大鼠存在共同的转录组异常,并突出显示了 TMEM65 和 Connexin-43 在闰盘的末端地址改变以及心电图异常。我们的研究记录了 BMD 转化临床前模型的自然史,并报告了 BMD 和 DMD 心脏功能障碍的细胞机制,为进一步研究肌营养不良蛋白在细胞间通信中的组织作用提供了机会。

In Huntington's disease (HD), aberrant processing of huntingtin (HTT) mRNA produces HTT1a transcripts that encode the pathogenic HTT exon 1 protein. The mechanisms behind HTT1a production are not fully understood. Considering the role of m6A in RNA processing and splicing, we investigated its involvement in HTT1a generation. Here, we show that m6A methylation is increased before the cryptic poly(A) sites (IpA1 and IpA2) within the huntingtin RNA in the striatum of Hdh+/Q111 mice and human HD samples. We further assessed m6A's role in mutant Htt mRNA processing by pharmacological inhibition and knockdown of METTL3, as well as targeted demethylation of Htt intron 1 using a dCas13-ALKBH5 system in HD mouse cells. Our data reveal that Htt1a transcript levels are regulated by both METTL3 and the methylation status of Htt intron 1. They also show that m6A methylation in intron 1 depends on expanded CAG repeats. Our findings highlight a potential role for m6A in aberrant splicing of Htt mRNA.

在亨廷顿氏病(HD)中,亨廷汀(HTT)mRNA 的异常加工会产生 HTT1a 转录本,编码致病的 HTT 第 1 外显子蛋白。HTT1a产生的机制尚未完全明了。考虑到 m6A 在 RNA 处理和剪接中的作用,我们研究了它在 HTT1a 生成中的参与。在这里,我们发现在 Hdh+/Q111 小鼠和人类 HD 样本的纹状体中,m6A 甲基化在亨廷蛋白 RNA 中的隐性 poly(A) 位点(IpA1 和 IpA2)之前增加。我们进一步评估了 m6A 在突变型 Htt mRNA 处理中的作用,方法是药理抑制和敲除 METTL3,以及使用 dCas13-ALKBH5 系统在 HD 小鼠细胞中对 Htt 内含子 1 进行靶向去甲基化。我们的数据显示,Htt1a 转录水平受 METTL3 和 Htt 内含子 1 甲基化状态的调控。这些数据还显示,内含子 1 中的 m6A 甲基化取决于扩展的 CAG 重复序列。我们的发现突显了 m6A 在 Htt mRNA 的异常剪接中的潜在作用。

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a disorder causing chronic inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, and its pathophysiological mechanisms are still under investigation. Here, we find that mice deficient of YOD1, a deubiquitinating enzyme, are highly susceptible to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. The bone marrow transplantation experiment reveals that YOD1 derived from hematopoietic cells inhibits DSS colitis. Moreover, YOD1 exerts its protective role by promoting nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2)-mediated physiological inflammation in macrophages. Mechanistically, YOD1 inhibits the proteasomal degradation of receptor-interacting serine/threonine kinase 2 (RIPK2) by reducing its K48 polyubiquitination, thereby increasing RIPK2 abundance to enhance NOD2 signaling. Consistently, the protective function of muramyldipeptide, a NOD2 ligand, in experimental colitis is abolished in mice deficient of YOD1. Importantly, YOD1 is upregulated in colon-infiltrating macrophages in patients with colitis. Collectively, this study identifies YOD1 as a novel regulator of colitis.

炎症性肠病(IBD)是一种导致胃肠道慢性炎症的疾病,其病理生理机制仍在研究之中。在这里,我们发现缺乏去泛素化酶 YOD1 的小鼠极易患右旋糖酐硫酸钠(DSS)诱导的结肠炎。骨髓移植实验显示,来自造血细胞的 YOD1 可抑制 DSS 结肠炎。此外,YOD1 通过促进核苷酸结合寡聚化结构域 2(NOD2)介导的巨噬细胞生理性炎症发挥其保护作用。从机理上讲,YOD1 通过减少受体相互作用丝氨酸/苏氨酸激酶 2(RIPK2)的 K48 多泛素化来抑制其蛋白酶体降解,从而增加 RIPK2 的丰度,增强 NOD2 的信号转导。同样,在缺乏 YOD1 的小鼠体内,NOD2 配体 muramyldipeptide 在实验性结肠炎中的保护功能也会消失。重要的是,YOD1 在结肠炎患者的结肠浸润巨噬细胞中上调。总之,这项研究发现 YOD1 是结肠炎的新型调节因子。
