Abstract
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent protein deacylases involved in metabolic regulation and aging-related diseases. Specific activators for seven human Sirtuin isoforms would be important chemical tools and potential therapeutic drugs. Activators have been described for Sirt1 and act via a unique N-terminal domain of this isoform. For most other Sirtuin isoforms, including mitochondrial Sirt3-5, no potent and specific activators have yet been identified. We here describe the identification and characterization of 1,4-dihydropyridine-based compounds that either act as pan Sirtuin activators or specifically stimulate Sirt3 or Sirt5. The activators bind to the Sirtuin catalytic cores independent of NAD+ and acylated peptides and stimulate turnover of peptide and protein substrates. The compounds also activate Sirt3 or Sirt5 in cellular systems regulating, e.g., apoptosis and electron transport chain. Our results provide a scaffold for potent Sirtuin activation and derivatives specific for Sirt3 and Sirt5 as an excellent basis for further drug development.

Abstract
Simple Summary There are diverse reports of the dual role of sirtuin genes and proteins in breast and prostate cancers. This review discusses the current information on the tumor promotion or suppression roles of SIRT1–7 in breast and prostate cancers. Precisely, we highlight that sirtuins regulate various proteins implicated in proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, chemoresistance, invasion, migration, and metastasis of both breast and prostate cancer. We also provide evidence of the direct regulation of sirtuins by miRNAs, highlighting the consequences of this regulation in breast and prostate cancer. Overall, this review reveals the potential value of sirtuins as biomarkers and/or targets for improved treatment of breast and prostate cancers. Abstract Mammalian sirtuins (SIRT1–7) are involved in a myriad of cellular processes, including apoptosis, proliferation, differentiation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, aging, DNA repair, senescence, viability, survival, and stress response. In this review, we discuss the current information on the mechanistic roles of SIRT1–7 and their downstream effects (tumor promotion or suppression) in cancers of the breast and prostate. Specifically, we highlight the involvement of sirtuins in the regulation of various proteins implicated in proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, chemoresistance, invasion, migration, and metastasis of breast and prostate cancer. Additionally, we highlight the available information regarding SIRT1–7 regulation by miRNAs, laying much emphasis on the consequences in the progression of breast and prostate cancer.

Abstract
In our previous study, we reported that sirtuin5 (SIRT5), a member of the NAD+-dependent class III histone deacetylase family, is highly expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC). Herein we show that SIRT5 knockdown impairs the production of ribose-5-phosphate, which is essential for nucleotide synthesis, resulting in continuous and irreparable DNA damage and consequently leading to cell cycle arrest and enhanced apoptosis in CRC cells. These SIRT5 silencing-induced effects can be reversed by nucleoside supplementation. Mechanistically, SIRT5 activates transketolase (TKT), a key enzyme in the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, in a demalonylation-dependent manner. Furthermore, TKT is essential for SIRT5-induced malignant phenotypes of CRC both in vivo and in vitro. Altogether, SIRT5 silencing induces DNA damage in CRC via post-translational modifications and inhibits tumor growth, suggesting that SIRT5 can serve as a promising target for CRC treatment.

Abstract
Abnormal energy expenditure during seizures and metabolic regulation through post-translational protein acylation suggest acylation as a therapeutic target in epilepsy. Our goal is to characterize an interplay between the brain acylation system components and their changes after seizures. In a rat model of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced epilepsy, we quantify 43 acylations in 29 cerebral cortex proteins; levels of NAD+; expression of NAD+-dependent deacylases (SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT5); activities of the acyl-CoA-producing/NAD+-utilizing complexes of 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases. Compared to the control group, acylations of 14 sites in 11 proteins are found to differ significantly after seizures, with six of the proteins involved in glycolysis and energy metabolism. Comparing the single and chronic seizures does not reveal significant differences in the acylations, pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, SIRT2 expression or NAD+. On the contrary, expression of SIRT3, SIRT5 and activity of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (OGDH) decrease in chronic seizures vs. a single seizure. Negative correlations between the protein succinylation/glutarylation and SIRT5 expression, and positive correlations between the protein acetylation and SIRT2 expression are shown. Our findings unravel involvement of SIRT5 and OGDH in metabolic adaptation to seizures through protein acylation, consistent with the known neuroprotective role of SIRT5 and contribution of OGDH to the Glu/GABA balance perturbed in epilepsy.

Abstract
Background: Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract with poor clinical outcomes. Cuproptosis is a novel cell death mechanism and linked to mitochondrial respiration. However, the role of cuproptosis in colon cancer tumor microenvironment (TME) and immune responses remains unknown.Methods: We conducted difference analysis to identify the differential expressed cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs). According to the CRGs, the TCGA-COAD samples were categorized using consensus clustering. The LASSO regression analysis was utilized to develop the cuproptosis-related signature. We then verified the model reliability by Kaplan–Meier, PCA, and ROC analysis. The GES39582 cohort served as the validation set. GO and KEGG functional analyses were conducted to investigate the underlying mechanism. We compared the infiltration levels of immune cells, the expression levels of immune checkpoints, and microsatellite instability (MSI) status between the high- and low-risk groups. Additionally, the relationships between the risk signature and immune cells and cancer stem cell (CSC) were analyzed.Results: Finally, we identified 9 differentially expressed CRGs in COAD. According to the expression of CRGs, the TCGA-COAD samples were separated into two clusters. The 11-gene signature was established by LASSO, and it had excellent predictive power for COAD prognosis. Besides, we used the GSE39582 cohort to validate the prognostic value of the model. GO and KEGG results demonstrated that the survival differences between two risk groups was mainly linked to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Further immune characterization analysis showed the significant differences in the immune cell infiltration and immune responses between two risk groups.Conclusion: Overall, the novel cuproptosis-related signature was able to accurately predict COAD prognosis and played important roles in COAD tumor microenvironment and immune responses.

Abstract
Histone post-translational modifications (HPTMs) are essential epigenetic mechanisms that affect chromatin-associated nuclear processes without altering the DNA sequence. With the application of mass spectrometry-based proteomics, novel histone lysine acylation, such as propionylation, butyrylation, crotonylation, malonylation, succinylation, glutarylation, and lactoylation have been successively discovered. The emerging diversity of the lysine acylation landscape prompted us to investigate the function and mechanism of these novel HPTMs in health and disease. Recently, it has been reported that β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), the main component of the ketone body, has various protective roles beyond alternative fuel provision during starvation. Histone lysine β-hydroxybutyrylation (Kbhb) is a novel HPTMs identified by mass spectrometry, which regulates gene transcription in response to carbohydrate restriction or elevated BHB levels in vivo and vitro. Recent studies have shown that histone Kbhb is strongly associated with the pathogenesis of metabolic cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, tumors, neuropsychiatric disorders, and metabolic diseases suggesting it has different functions from histone acetylation and methylation. This review focuses on the writers, erasers, sites, and underlying functions of histone Kbhb, providing a glimpse into their complex regulation mechanism.

Abstract
Protein post-translational modifications serve to regulate a broad range of cellular functions including signal transduction, transcription, and metabolism. Protein lysine residues undergo many post-translational acylations and are regulated by a range of enzymes, such as histone acetyl transferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). KAT2A, well characterized as a lysine acetyltransferase for both histone and nonhistone substrates, has been reported to tolerate additional acyl-CoA substrates, such as succinyl-CoA, and shows nonacetyl transferase activity in specific biological contexts. In this work, we investigate the acyl-CoA substrate preference of KAT2A and attempt to determine whether and to what extent additional acyl-CoA substrates may be utilized by KAT2A in a cellular context. We show that while KAT2A can bind and utilize malonyl-CoA, its activity with succinyl-CoA or glutaryl-CoA is very weak, and acetylation is still the most efficient activity for KAT2A in vitro and in cells.

Abstract
Life-threatening hyperammonemia occurs in both inherited and acquired liver diseases affecting ureagenesis, the main pathway for detoxification of neurotoxic ammonia in mammals. Protein O-GlcNAcylation is a reversible and nutrient-sensitive post-translational modification using as substrate UDP-GlcNAc, the end-product of hexosamine biosynthesis pathway. Here we show that increased liver UDP-GlcNAc during hyperammonemia increases protein O-GlcNAcylation and enhances ureagenesis. Mechanistically, O-GlcNAcylation on specific threonine residues increased the catalytic efficiency for ammonia of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1), the rate-limiting enzyme in ureagenesis. Pharmacological inhibition of O-GlcNAcase, the enzyme removing O-GlcNAc from proteins, resulted in clinically relevant reductions of systemic ammonia in both genetic (hypomorphic mouse model of propionic acidemia) and acquired (thioacetamide-induced acute liver failure) mouse models of liver diseases. In conclusion, by fine-tuned control of ammonia entry into ureagenesis, hepatic O-GlcNAcylation of CPS1 increases ammonia detoxification and is a novel target for therapy of hyperammonemia in both genetic and acquired diseases.

Hao S, Wang Y, Zhao Y, Gao W, Cui W, Li Y, Cui J, Liu Y, Lin L, Xu X, Wang H. Dynamic switching of crotonylation to ubiquitination of H2A at lysine 119 attenuates transcription-replication conflicts caused by replication stress. Nucleic Acids Res 2022; 50:9873-9892. [PMID: 36062559 PMCID: PMC9508856 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkac734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Revised: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The reversible post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins plays an important role in many cellular processes. Lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is a newly identified PTM, but its functional significance remains unclear. Here, we found that Kcr is involved in the replication stress response. We show that crotonylation of histone H2A at lysine 119 (H2AK119) and ubiquitination of H2AK119 are reversibly regulated by replication stress. Decrotonylation of H2AK119 by SIRT1 is a prerequisite for subsequent ubiquitination of H2AK119 by BMI1. Accumulation of ubiquitinated H2AK119 at reversed replication forks leads to the release of RNA Polymerase II and transcription repression in the vicinity of stalled replication forks. These effects attenuate transcription–replication conflicts (TRCs) and TRC-associated R-loop formation and DNA double-strand breaks. These findings suggest that decrotonylation and ubiquitination of H2A at lysine 119 act together to resolve replication stress-induced TRCs and protect genome stability.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 non-structural protein Nsp14 is a highly conserved enzyme necessary for viral replication. Nsp14 forms a stable complex with non-structural protein Nsp10 and exhibits exoribonuclease and N7-methyltransferase activities. Protein-interactome studies identified human sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) as a putative binding partner of Nsp14. SIRT5 is an NAD-dependent protein deacylase critical for cellular metabolism that removes succinyl and malonyl groups from lysine residues. Here we investigated the nature of this interaction and the role of SIRT5 during SARS-CoV-2 infection. We showed that SIRT5 interacts with Nsp14, but not with Nsp10, suggesting that SIRT5 and Nsp10 are parts of separate complexes. We found that SIRT5 catalytic domain is necessary for the interaction with Nsp14, but that Nsp14 does not appear to be directly deacylated by SIRT5. Furthermore, knock-out of SIRT5 or treatment with specific SIRT5 inhibitors reduced SARS-CoV-2 viral levels in cell-culture experiments. SIRT5 knock-out cells expressed higher basal levels of innate immunity markers and mounted a stronger antiviral response, independently of the Mitochondrial Antiviral Signaling Protein MAVS. Our results indicate that SIRT5 is a proviral factor necessary for efficient viral replication, which opens novel avenues for therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Glutarylation is a type of post-translational modification that occurs on lysine residues. It plays an irreplaceable role in various cellular functions. Therefore, identification of glutarylation sites is significant for understanding the molecular mechanism of glutarylation. In this study, we proposed a method named DEXGB_Glu to identify lysine glutarylation sites using XGBoost as classifier which was optimized by differential evolution algorithm. Aiming at the imbalance between positive samples and negative samples, Borderline-SMOTE method was employed to synthesize positive samples, increasing their amount equal to negative samples. Then, Tomek links technique was applied to filter out noise data. Analysis of this method and its results showed that differential evolution algorithm obviously improved the performance and the combination of Borderline-SMOTE and Tomek links effectively solved the imbalance between positive samples and negative samples. Finally, the performance of this method was much better than other methods in prediction of glutarylation sites. The data and code are available on https://github.com/ningq669/DEXGB_Glu.

Abstract
Tumour dependency on specific metabolic signals has been demonstrated and often guided numerous therapeutic approaches. We identify melanoma addiction to the mitochondrial protein glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH), which functions in lysine metabolism and controls protein glutarylation. GCDH knockdown induced cell death programmes in melanoma cells, an activity blocked by inhibition of the upstream lysine catabolism enzyme DHTKD1. The transcription factor NRF2 mediates GCDH-dependent melanoma cell death programmes. Mechanistically, GCDH knockdown induces NRF2 glutarylation, increasing its stability and DNA binding activity, with a concomitant transcriptional upregulation of ATF4, ATF3, DDIT3 and CHAC1, resulting in cell death. In vivo, inducible inactivation of GCDH effectively inhibited melanoma tumour growth. Correspondingly, reduced GCDH expression correlated with improved survival of patients with melanoma. These findings identify melanoma cell addiction to GCDH, limiting apoptotic signalling by controlling NRF2 glutarylation. Inhibiting the GCDH pathway could thus represent a therapeutic approach to treat melanoma.

Abstract
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent deac(et)ylases with different subcellular localization. The sirtuins’ family is composed of seven members, named SIRT-1 to SIRT-7. Their substrates include histones and also an increasing number of different proteins. Sirtuins regulate a wide range of different processes, ranging from transcription to metabolism to genome stability. Thus, their dysregulation has been related to the pathogenesis of different diseases. In this review, we discussed the pharmacological approaches based on sirtuins’ modulators (both inhibitors and activators) that have been attempted in in vitro and/or in in vivo experimental settings, to highlight the therapeutic potential of targeting one/more specific sirtuin isoform(s) in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and type 2 diabetes. Extensive research has already been performed to identify SIRT-1 and -2 modulators, while compounds targeting the other sirtuins have been less studied so far. Beside sections dedicated to each sirtuin, in the present review we also included sections dedicated to pan-sirtuins’ and to parasitic sirtuins’ modulators. A special focus is dedicated to the sirtuins’ modulators identified by the use of virtual screening.

Abstract
Propionic acid (PA) is a major component of short-chain fatty acids produced by Bacteroidetes spp. Lysine propionylation is a novel type of protein regulatory posttranslational modification that is widespread in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, as well as in cellular processes, it affects DNA binding affinity, protein stability, and enzyme activity. In this review of published literature, we provide evidence that the level of propionyl modification is influenced by the concentration of PA and the PA metabolic intermediate (propionyl-CoA) and discuss the possibility of PA affecting enteropathogenic bacterial virulence. The understanding of propionyl modification is helpful to better understand the mechanism of PA-producing Bacteroidetes affecting the virulence of pathogenic intestinal bacteria. It may provide novel choices for the prevention and treatment of pathogenic intestinal bacteria.

Abstract
In recent years, much research has found that dysregulation of glutarylation is associated with many human diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, and glutaric aciduria type I. Therefore, glutarylation identification and characterization are essential tasks for determining modification-specific proteomics. This study aims to propose a novel deep neural network framework based on word embedding techniques for glutarylation sites prediction. Multiple deep neural network models are implemented to evaluate the performance of glutarylation sites prediction. Furthermore, an extensive experimental comparison of word embedding techniques is conducted to utilize the most efficient method for improving protein sequence data representation. The results suggest that the proposed deep neural networks not only improve protein sequence representation but also work effectively in glutarylation sites prediction by obtaining a higher accuracy and confidence rate compared to the previous work. Moreover, embedding techniques were proven to be more productive than the pre-trained word embedding techniques for glutarylation sequence representation. Our proposed method has significantly outperformed all traditional performance metrics compared to the advanced integrated vector support, with accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, and correlation coefficient of 0.79, 0.89, 0.59, and 0.51, respectively. It shows the potential to detect new glutarylation sites and uncover the relationships between glutarylation and well-known lysine modification.

Progress in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: SIRT Family Regulates Mitochondrial Biogenesis. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12081079.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by hepatic steatosis, insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and oxidative stress. As a group of NAD+-dependent III deacetylases, the sirtuin (SIRT1-7) family plays a very important role in regulating mitochondrial biogenesis and participates in the progress of NAFLD. SIRT family members are distributed in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria; regulate hepatic fatty acid oxidation metabolism through different metabolic pathways and mechanisms; and participate in the regulation of mitochondrial energy metabolism. SIRT1 may improve NAFLD by regulating ROS, PGC-1α, SREBP-1c, FoxO1/3, STAT3, and AMPK to restore mitochondrial function and reduce steatosis of the liver. Other SIRT family members also play a role in regulating mitochondrial biogenesis, fatty acid oxidative metabolism, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Therefore, this paper comprehensively introduces the role of SIRT family in regulating mitochondrial biogenesis in the liver in NAFLD, aiming to further explain the importance of SIRT family in regulating mitochondrial function in the occurrence and development of NAFLD, and to provide ideas for the research and development of targeted drugs. Relatively speaking, the role of some SIRT family members in NAFLD is still insufficiently clear, and further research is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The liver is a metabolically active organ and is also 'tolerogenic', exhibiting sophisticated mechanisms of immune regulation that prevent pathogen attacks and tumorigenesis. How metabolism impacts the tumor microenvironment (TME) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains understudied. METHODS We investigated the role of the metabolic regulator SIRT5 in HCC development by conducting metabolomic analysis, gene expression profiling, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry analyses in oncogene-induced HCC mouse models and human HCC samples. RESULTS We show that SIRT5 is downregulated in human primary HCC samples and that Sirt5 deficiency in mice synergizes with oncogenes to increase bile acid (BA) production, via hypersuccinylation and increased BA biosynthesis in the peroxisomes of hepatocytes. BAs act as a signaling mediator to stimulate their nuclear receptor and promote M2-like macrophage polarization, creating an immunosuppressive TME that favors tumor-initiating cells (TICs). Accordingly, high serum levels of taurocholic acid correlate with low SIRT5 expression and increased M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in HCC patient samples. Finally, administration of cholestyramine, a BA sequestrant and FDA-approved medication for hyperlipemia, reverses the effect of Sirt5 deficiency in promoting M2-like polarized TAMs and liver tumor growth. CONCLUSIONS This study uncovers a novel function of SIRT5 in orchestrating BA metabolism to prevent tumor immune evasion and suppress HCC development. Our results also suggest a potential strategy of using clinically proven BA sequestrants for the treatment of patients with HCC, especially those with decreased SIRT5 and abnormally high BAs. LAY SUMMARY Hepatocellular caricinoma (HCC) development is closely linked to metabolic dysregulation and an altered tumor microenvironment. Herein, we show that loss of the metabolic regulator Sirt5 promotes hepatocarcinogenesis, which is associated with abnormally elevated bile acids and subsequently an immunosuppressive microenvironment that favors HCC development. Targeting this mechanism could be a promising clinical strategy for HCC.

Abstract
As a novel post-translational modification (PTM), lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) is considered to regulate gene transcriptional activities in eukaryotic cells; however, the functions of Khib-modified proteins in plants remain unknown. Here, we report that Khib is an evolutionarily-conserved PTM in wheat and its progenitors. A total of 3348 Khib sites on 1074 proteins are identified in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by using affinity purification and mass spectroscopy of 2-hydroxyisobutyrylome. Bioinformatic data indicate that Khib-modified proteins participate in a wide variety of biological and metabolic pathways. Immunoprecipitation confirms that Khib-modified proteins are present endogenously. A comparison of Khib and other main PTMs shows that Khib-modified proteins are simultaneously modified by multiple PTMs. Using mutagenesis experiments and co-immunoprecipitation assays, we demonstrate that Khib on K206 of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is a key regulatory modification for its enzymatic activity, and mutation on K206 affects the interactions of PGK with its substrates. Furthermore, Khib modification of low-molecular-weight proteins is a response to the deacetylase inhibitors nicotinamide and trichostatin. This study provides evidence to promote our current understanding of Khib in wheat plants, including the cooperation between Khib and its metabolic regulation.

Abstract
Sirtiun 5 (SIRT5) is a NAD+-dependent protein lysine deacylase primarily located in mitochondria. SIRT5 displays an affinity for negatively charged acyl groups and mainly catalyzes lysine deglutarylation, desuccinylation, and demalonylation while possessing weak deacetylase activity. SIRT5 substrates play crucial roles in metabolism and reactive oxygen species (ROS) detoxification, and SIRT5 activity is protective in neuronal and cardiac physiology. Moreover, SIRT5 exhibits a dichotomous role in cancer, acting as context-dependent tumor promoter or suppressor. Given its multifaceted activity, SIRT5 is a promising target in the design of activators or inhibitors that might act as therapeutics in many pathologies, including cancer, cardiovascular disorders, and neurodegeneration. To date, few cellular-active peptide-based SIRT5 inhibitors (SIRT5i) have been described, and potent and selective small-molecule SIRT5i have yet to be discovered. In this perspective, we provide an outline of SIRT5's roles in different biological settings and describe SIRT5 modulators in terms of their mode of action, pharmacological activity, and structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
During metabolism, carboxylic acids are often activated by conjugation to the thiol of coenzyme A (CoA). The resulting acyl-CoAs comprise a group of ∼100 thioester-containing metabolites that could modify protein behavior through non-enzymatic N-acylation of lysine residues. However, the importance of many potential acyl modifications remains unclear because antibody-based methods to detect them are unavailable and the in vivo concentrations of their respective acyl-CoAs are poorly characterized. Here, we develop cysteine-triphenylphosphonium (CysTPP), a mass spectrometry probe that uses "native chemical ligation" to sensitively detect the major acyl-CoAs present in vivo through irreversible modification of its amine via a thioester intermediate. Using CysTPP, we show that longer-chain (C13-C22) acyl-CoAs often constitute ∼60% of the acyl-CoA pool in rat tissues. These hydrophobic longer-chain fatty acyl-CoAs have the potential to non-enzymatically modify protein residues.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is the inability of the heart to pump blood sufficiently to meet the metabolic demands of the body. HF with reduced systolic function is characterized by cardiac hypertrophy, ventricular fibrosis and remodeling, and decreased cardiac contractility, leading to cardiac functional impairment and death. Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) is a well-established model for inducing hypertrophy and HF in rodents. Mice globally deficient in sirtuin 5 (SIRT5), a NAD+-dependent deacylase, are hypersensitive to cardiac stress and display increased mortality after TAC. Prior studies assessing SIRT5 functions in the heart have all employed loss-of-function approaches. In this study, we generated SIRT5 overexpressing (SIRT5OE) mice, and evaluated their response to chronic pressure overload using TAC. Compared to littermate controls, SIRT5OE mice were protected against adverse functional consequences of TAC, left ventricular dilation and impaired ejection fraction. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that SIRT5 suppresses key HF sequelae, including the metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis, immune activation, and fibrotic signaling pathways. We conclude that SIRT5 is a limiting factor in the preservation of cardiac function in response to experimental pressure overload.

Abstract
Hypertension and kidney disease have been repeatedly associated with genomic variants and alterations of lysine metabolism. Here, we combined stable isotope labeling with untargeted metabolomics to investigate lysine's metabolic fate in vivo. Dietary 13C6 labeled lysine was tracked to lysine metabolites across various organs. Globally, lysine reacts rapidly with molecules of the central carbon metabolism, but incorporates slowly into proteins and acylcarnitines. Lysine metabolism is accelerated in a rat model of hypertension and kidney damage, chiefly through N-alpha-mediated degradation. Lysine administration diminished development of hypertension and kidney injury. Protective mechanisms include diuresis, further acceleration of lysine conjugate formation, and inhibition of tubular albumin uptake. Lysine also conjugates with malonyl-CoA to form a novel metabolite Nε-malonyl-lysine to deplete malonyl-CoA from fatty acid synthesis. Through conjugate formation and excretion as fructoselysine, saccharopine, and Nε-acetyllysine, lysine lead to depletion of central carbon metabolites from the organism and kidney. Consistently, lysine administration to patients at risk for hypertension and kidney disease inhibited tubular albumin uptake, increased lysine conjugate formation, and reduced tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolites, compared to kidney-healthy volunteers. In conclusion, lysine isotope tracing mapped an accelerated metabolism in hypertension, and lysine administration could protect kidneys in hypertensive kidney disease.

Abstract
O-linked N-acetyl-glucosamine glycosylation (O-GlcNAcylation) of intracellular proteins is a dynamic process broadly implicated in age-related disease, yet it remains uncharacterized whether and how O-GlcNAcylation contributes to the natural aging process. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and the opposing enzyme O-GlcNAcase (OGA) control this nutrient-sensing protein modification in cells. Here, we show that global O-GlcNAc levels are increased in multiple tissues of aged mice. In aged liver, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) is among the most heavily O-GlcNAcylated proteins. CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation is reversed by calorie restriction and is sensitive to genetic and pharmacological manipulations of the O-GlcNAc pathway. High glucose stimulates CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation and inhibits CPS1 activity. Liver-specific deletion of OGT potentiates CPS1 activity and renders CPS1 irresponsive to further stimulation by a prolonged fasting. Our results identify CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation as a key nutrient-sensing regulatory step in the urea cycle during aging and dietary restriction, implying a role for mitochondrial O-GlcNAcylation in nutritional regulation of longevity.

Abstract
Background Liver fibrosis is an independent contributor of chronic liver diseases, and regressing liver fibrosis is considered a potential therapeutic target for chronic liver diseases. We aimed to explore the effects and mechanism of sorafenib in liver fibrosis. Methods Male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were subjected to subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) for 8 weeks to induce liver fibrosis and then treated with sorafenib. The degree of liver fibrosis was analyzed by hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) staining, Masson staining, and Picrosirius red (PSR) staining. Serum biochemical indexes were detected by fully automatic biochemical analyzer or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of pro-fibrotic genes. Immunohistochemical staining and Western blotting were carried out to evaluate the levels of lysine crotonylation. Results Liver index was reduced with oral sorafenib in CCl4-induced rats. Serum liver function (alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and total bilirubin (TBIL)) and fibrosis indicators (type III procollagen (PC-III), hyaluronic acid (HA), and laminin (LN)) were attenuated with sorafenib treatment. Sorafenib improved the hepatic structure and fibrotic progression. The expression of fibrosis-related genes was remarkely reduced with sorafenib treatment. Meanwhile, sorafenib inhibited α-SMA and collagen I cumulation induced by CCl4 injection. Besides, protein lysine crotonylation especially the crotonylated H2BK12 (H2BK12cr) and crotonylated H3K18 (H3K18cr) were reversed by sorafenib, which were decreased in response to CCl4 treatment. Spearman correlation analysis shown lysine crotonylation expression was negatively correlated with serum fibrotic indicators. Conversely, crotonylation-regulated enzymes, which negatively regulate protein crotonylation, were increased in response to CCl4 treatment, while sorafenib reduced their expression. Conclusion Sorafenib exerts significant anti-fibrotic effects through mediating crotonylation-regulated enzymes and protein crotonylation in fibrotic rats.

Abstract
Posttranslational modifications, typically small chemical tags attached on amino acids following protein biosynthesis, have a profound effect on protein structure and function. Numerous chemically and structurally diverse posttranslational modifications, including methylation, acetylation, hydroxylation, and ubiquitination, have been identified and characterised on lysine residues in proteins. In this feature article, we focus on chemical tools that rely on the site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids into peptides and proteins to probe posttranslational modifications of lysine. We highlight that simple amino acid mimics enable detailed mechanistic and functional assignment of enzymes that install and remove such modifications, and proteins that specifically recognise lysine posttranslational modifications.

Abstract
Mitochondrial protein acetylation is associated with a host of diseases including cancer, Alzheimer’s, and metabolic syndrome. Deciphering the mechanisms regarding how protein acetylation contributes to disease pathologies remains difficult due to the complex diversity of pathways targeted by lysine acetylation. Specifically, protein acetylation is thought to direct feedback from metabolism, whereby nutritional status influences mitochondrial pathways including beta-oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain. Acetylation provides a crucial connection between hepatic metabolism and mitochondrial function. Dysregulation of protein acetylation throughout the cell can alter mitochondrial function and is associated with numerous liver diseases, including non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver disease, steatohepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. This review introduces biochemical mechanisms of protein acetylation in the regulation of mitochondrial function and hepatic diseases and offers a viewpoint on the potential for targeted therapies.

Delayed Impact of 2-Oxoadipate Dehydrogenase Inhibition on the Rat Brain Metabolism Is Linked to Protein Glutarylation. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:896263. [PMID: 35721081 PMCID: PMC9198357 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.896263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The DHTKD1-encoded 2-oxoadipate dehydrogenase (OADH) oxidizes 2-oxoadipate—a common intermediate of the lysine and tryptophan catabolism. The mostly low and cell-specific flux through these pathways, and similar activities of OADH and ubiquitously expressed 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (OGDH), agree with often asymptomatic phenotypes of heterozygous mutations in the DHTKD1 gene. Nevertheless, OADH/DHTKD1 are linked to impaired insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular disease risks, and Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy. We hypothesize that systemic significance of OADH relies on its generation of glutaryl residues for protein glutarylation. Using pharmacological inhibition of OADH and the animal model of spinal cord injury (SCI), we explore this hypothesis. Methods The weight-drop model of SCI, a single intranasal administration of an OADH-directed inhibitor trimethyl adipoyl phosphonate (TMAP), and quantification of the associated metabolic changes in the rat brain employ established methods. Results The TMAP-induced metabolic changes in the brain of the control, laminectomized (LE) and SCI rats are long-term and (patho)physiology-dependent. Increased glutarylation of the brain proteins, proportional to OADH expression in the control and LE rats, represents a long-term consequence of the OADH inhibition. The proportionality suggests autoglutarylation of OADH, supported by our mass-spectrometric identification of glutarylated K155 and K818 in recombinant human OADH. In SCI rats, TMAP increases glutarylation of the brain proteins more than OADH expression, inducing a strong perturbation in the brain glutathione metabolism. The redox metabolism is not perturbed by TMAP in LE animals, where the inhibition of OADH increases expression of deglutarylase sirtuin 5. The results reveal the glutarylation-imposed control of the brain glutathione metabolism. Glutarylation of the ODP2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex at K451 is detected in the rat brain, linking the OADH function to the brain glucose oxidation essential for the redox state. Short-term inhibition of OADH by TMAP administration manifests in increased levels of tryptophan and decreased levels of sirtuins 5 and 3 in the brain. Conclusion Pharmacological inhibition of OADH affects acylation system of the brain, causing long-term, (patho)physiology-dependent changes in the expression of OADH and sirtuin 5, protein glutarylation and glutathione metabolism. The identified glutarylation of ODP2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex provides a molecular mechanism of the OADH association with diabetes.

Abstract
Lysine glutarylation is a post-translational modification (PTM) that plays a regulatory role in various physiological and biological processes. Identifying glutarylated peptides using proteomic techniques is expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, developing computational models and predictors can prove useful for rapid identification of glutarylation. In this study, we propose a model called ProtTrans-Glutar to classify a protein sequence into positive or negative glutarylation site by combining traditional sequence-based features with features derived from a pre-trained transformer-based protein model. The features of the model were constructed by combining several feature sets, namely the distribution feature (from composition/transition/distribution encoding), enhanced amino acid composition (EAAC), and features derived from the ProtT5-XL-UniRef50 model. Combined with random under-sampling and XGBoost classification method, our model obtained recall, specificity, and AUC scores of 0.7864, 0.6286, and 0.7075 respectively on an independent test set. The recall and AUC scores were notably higher than those of the previous glutarylation prediction models using the same dataset. This high recall score suggests that our method has the potential to identify new glutarylation sites and facilitate further research on the glutarylation process.

Abstract
Zinc-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs) and sirtuins (SIRT) represent two different classes of enzymes which are responsible for deacylation of modified lysine side chains. The repertoire of acyl residues on lysine side chains identified in vivo is rapidly growing, and very recently lysine lactoylation was described to be involved in metabolic reprogramming. Additionally, lysine pyruvoylation represents a marker for aging and liver cirrhosis. Here, we report a systematic analysis of acyl-specificity of human zinc-dependent HDAC and sirtuin isoforms. We identified HDAC3 as a robust delactoylase with several-thousand-fold higher activity as compared to SIRT2, which was claimed to be the major in vivo delactoylase. Additionally, we systematically searched for enzymes, capable of removing pyruvoyl residues from lysine side chains. Using model peptides, we uncovered high depyruvoylase activity for HDAC6 and HDAC8. Interestingly, such substrates have extremely low KM values for both HDAC isoforms, pointing to possible in vivo functions.

Abstract
Histone modification is an important epigenetic alteration, and histone deacetylases are involved in the occurrence and development of various respiratory diseases. Sirtuins (SIRTs) have been demonstrated to play an important role in the formation and progression of chronic inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract. SIRTs participate in the regulation of oxidative stress and inflammation and are related to cell structure and cellular localization. This paper summarizes the roles and mechanisms of SIRTs in airway inflammation and describes the latest research on SIRT modulators, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the study of potential epigenetic alteration-inducing drug targets.

Abstract
Organic acidemias such as methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) are a group of inborn errors of metabolism that typically arise from defects in the catabolism of amino and fatty acids. Accretion of acyl-CoA species is postulated to underlie disease pathophysiology, but the mechanism(s) remain unknown. Here, we surveyed hepatic explants from patients with MMA and unaffected donors, in parallel with samples from various mouse models of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase deficiency. We found a widespread posttranslational modification, methylmalonylation, that inhibited enzymes in the urea cycle and glycine cleavage pathway in MMA. Biochemical studies and mouse genetics established that sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) controlled the metabolism of MMA-related posttranslational modifications. SIRT5 was engineered to resist acylation-driven inhibition via lysine to arginine mutagenesis. The modified SIRT5 was used to create an adeno-associated viral 8 (AAV8) vector and systemically delivered to mutant and control mice. Gene therapy ameliorated hyperammonemia and reduced global methylmalonylation in the MMA mice.

Abstract
Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) is a protein lysine deacylase enzyme that regulates diverse biology by hydrolyzing ϵ-N-carboxyacyllysine posttranslational modifications in the cell. Inhibition of SIRT5 has been linked to potential treatment of several cancers but potent compounds with activity in cells have been lacking. Here we developed mechanism-based inhibitors that incorporate isosteres of a carboxylic acid residue that is important for high-affinity binding to the enzyme active site. By masking of the tetrazole moiety of the most potent candidate from our initial SAR study, we achieved potent and cytoselective growth inhibition for the treatment of SIRT5-dependent leukemic cancer cell lines in culture. Thus, we provide an efficient, cellularly active small molecule that targets SIRT5, which can help elucidate its function and potential as a future drug target. This work shows that masked isosteres of carboxylic acids are viable chemical motifs for the development of inhibitors that target mitochondrial enzymes, which may have applications beyond the sirtuin field.

Abstract
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent protein lysine deacylase and mono-ADP ribosylases present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The sirtuin family comprises seven isoforms in mammals, each possessing different subcellular localization and biological functions. Sirtuins have received increasing attention in the past two decades given their pivotal functions in a variety of biological contexts, including cytodifferentiation, transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, inflammation, metabolism, neurological and cardiovascular physiology and cancer. Consequently, modulation of sirtuin activity has been regarded as a promising therapeutic option for many pathologies. In this review, we provide an up-to-date overview of sirtuin biology and pharmacology. We examine the main features of the most relevant inhibitors and activators, analyzing their structure-activity relationships, applications in biology, and therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Lysine acylation plays pivotal roles in cell physiology, including DNA transcription and repair, signal transduction, immune defense, metabolism, and many other key cellular processes. Molecular mechanisms of dysregulated lysine acylation are closely involved in the pathophysiological progress of many human diseases, most notably cancers. In recent years, chemical biology tools have become instrumental in studying the function of post-translational modifications (PTMs), identifying new "writers", "erasers" and "readers", and in targeted therapies. Here, we describe key developments in chemical biology approaches that have advanced the study of lysine acylation and its regulatory proteins (2016-2021). We further discuss the discovery of ligands (inhibitors and PROTACs) that are capable of targeting regulators of lysine acylation. Next, we discuss some current challenges of these chemical biology probes and suggest how chemists and biologists can utilize chemical probes with more discriminating capacity. Finally, we suggest some critical considerations in future studies of PTMs from our perspective.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disorders and associated renal diseases account for the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, necessitating the development of novel effective approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiorenal diseases. Mammalian sirtuins (SIRTs) function as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent protein/histone deacetylases. Seven members of SIRTs share a highly invariant catalytic core domain responsible for the specific enzymatic activity. Intriguingly, the broad distribution of SIRTs and alternative isoforms implicate its distinct functions in diverse cardiac and renal cells and tissue types. Notably, SIRT7 has been shown to exert beneficial effects in cardiorenal physiology and pathophysiology via modulation of senescence, DNA damage repair, ribosomal RNA synthesis, protein biosynthesis, angiogenesis, apoptosis, superoxide generation, cardiorenal metabolism, and dysfunction. Furthermore, SIRT7 has emerged as a critical modulator of a broad range of cellular activities including oxidative stress, inflammation response, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and mitochondrial homeostasis, which are all of great significance in postponing the progression of cardiorenal diseases. More importantly, SIRT7 has been implicated in cardiorenal hypertrophy, fibrosis, remodeling, heart failure, atherosclerosis as well as renal acid-base and electrolyte homeostasis as an essential regulator. In this review, we focus on the involvement in cardiorenal physiology and pathophysiology, diverse actions and underlying mechanisms of the SIRT7 signaling, highlighting its updated research progress in heart failure, atherosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy and other cardiorenal diseases. Targeting SIRT7 signaling could be potentially exploited as a therapeutic strategy aiming to prevent and treat cardiorenal diseases.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 99:153994. [PMID: 35220131 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.153994] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming more and more common in clinic in the world, and the study on its mechanism and treatment strategy has already been a research hotspot. Natural chemical compound 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxy-stilbene-2-O-β-d-glucoside (TSG) is isolated from Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. that has already been reported to have the lipid-lowering activity. PURPOSE The purpose of this research was to observe the improvement of TSG on methionine and choline deficient (MCD) diet-induced NAFLD in mice and to further elucidate its engaged mechanism. METHODS NAFLD was induced in mice fed by MCD diet for 6 weeks. The accumulation of lipids in hepatocytes was induced by 0.5 mM non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA). Biochemical parameters in serum or livers from mice were tested. Protein and mRNA expression and stability were measured. Mitochondrial dysfunction was analyzed both in vivo and in vitro. The Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis was used to find potential involved key molecules. RESULTS TSG attenuated hepatic parenchymal cells injury, liver inflammatory responses and hepatic fibrosis, and markedly ameliorated liver steatosis in mice from MCD group. In vitro results indicated that TSG reduced the accumulation of cellular lipids in hepatocytes induced by NEFA. TSG reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and attenuated mitochondrial dysfunction both in vivo and in vitro. The label-free quantitative proteomic analysis predicted the crucial participation of NAD-dependent protein deacylase sirtuin-5 (SIRT5). Next experimental results further evidenced that TSG enhanced SIRT5 expression in mitochondria both in vitro and in vivo. The TSG-supplied inhibition on ROS formation and mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatocytes was disappeared after the application of SIRT5 siRNA. TSG increased the expression and enzymatic activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A), but this enhance was diminished in hepatocytes transfected with SIRT5 siRNA. Additionally, the TSG-provided inhibition on cellular lipids accumulation was also disappeared in hepatocytes transfected with SIRT5 siRNA. Further results demonstrated that TSG increased SIRT5 expression by regulating its mRNA stability through enhancing the binding of SIRT5 mRNA with serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 2 (SRSF2), which is an RNA-binding protein (RBP). CONCLUSION TSG attenuated liver steatosis and inhibited NAFLD progression through preventing oxidative stress injury and improving mitochondrial dysfunction, and SIRT5 played a key role in this process.

Abstract
The nucleosome, the basic repeating unit of chromatin, is a dynamic structure that consists of DNA and histones. Insights derived from biochemical and biophysical approaches have revealed that histones posttranslational modifications (PTMs) are key regulators of nucleosome structure and dynamics. Mounting evidence suggests that the newly identified negatively charged histone lysine acylations play significant roles in altering nucleosome and chromatin dynamics, subsequently affecting downstream DNA-templated processes including gene transcription and DNA damage repair. Here, we present an overview of the dynamic changes of nucleosome and chromatin structures in response to negatively charged histone lysine acylations, including lysine malonylation, lysine succinylation, and lysine glutarylation.

Abstract
Dynamics spanning the picosecond-minute time domain and the atomic-subcellular spatial window have been observed for chromatin in vitro and in vivo. The condensed organization of chromatin in eukaryotic cells prevents regulatory factors from accessing genomic DNA, which requires dynamic stabilization and destabilization of structure to initiate downstream DNA activities. Those processes are achieved through altering conformational and dynamic properties of nucleosomes and nucleosome–protein complexes, of which delineating the atomistic pictures is essential to understand the mechanisms of chromatin regulation. In this review, we summarize recent progress in determining chromatin dynamics and their modulations by a number of factors including post-translational modifications (PTMs), incorporation of histone variants, and binding of effector proteins. We focus on experimental observations obtained using high-resolution techniques, primarily including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Förster (or fluorescence) resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and discuss the elucidated dynamics in the context of functional response and relevance.

The Acyl-Proteome of Syntrophus aciditrophicus Reveals Metabolic Relationships in Benzoate Degradation. Mol Cell Proteomics 2022; 21:100215.

Abstract
Syntrophus aciditrophicus is a model syntrophic bacterium that degrades fatty and aromatic acids into acetate, CO2, formate, and H2 that are utilized by methanogens and other hydrogen-consuming microbes. S. aciditrophicus benzoate degradation proceeds by a multistep pathway with many intermediate reactive acyl-coenzyme A species (RACS) that can potentially Nε-acylate lysine residues. Herein, we describe the identification and characterization of acyl-lysine modifications that correspond to RACS in the benzoate degradation pathway. The amounts of modified peptides are sufficient to analyze the post-translational modifications without antibody enrichment, enabling a range of acylations located, presumably, on the most extensively acylated proteins throughout the proteome to be studied. Seven types of acyl modifications were identified, six of which correspond directly to RACS that are intermediates in the benzoate degradation pathway including 3-hydroxypimeloylation, a modification first identified in this system. Indeed, benzoate-degrading enzymes are heavily represented among the acylated proteins. A total of 125 sites were identified in 60 proteins. Functional deacylase enzymes are present in the proteome, indicating a potential regulatory system/mechanism by which S. aciditrophicus modulates acylation. Uniquely, Nε-acyl-lysine RACS are highly abundant in these syntrophic bacteria, raising the compelling possibility that post-translational modifications modulate benzoate degradation in this and potentially other, syntrophic bacteria. Our results outline candidates for further study of how acylations impact syntrophic consortia.

Abstract
The globally increasing annual incidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a common chronic disease, poses a serious risk to public health. Although the exact mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of COPD remains unclear, a large number of studies have shown that its pathophysiology and disease course are closely related to oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, and aging. The key players involved in COPD include the sirtuin family of NAD-dependent deacetylases that comprise seven members (SIRT1-7) in mammals. Sirtuins play an important role in metabolic diseases, cell cycle control, proliferation, apoptosis, and senescence. Owing to differences in subcellular localization, sirtuins exhibit anisotropy. In this narrative review, we discuss the roles and molecular pathways of each member of the sirtuin family involved in COPD to provide novel insights into the prevention and treatment of COPD and how sirtuins may serve as adjuvants for COPD treatment.

Abstract
The heart is a highly metabolically active organ that predominantly utilizes fatty acids as an energy substrate. The heart also derives some part of its energy by oxidation of other substrates, including glucose, lactose, amino acids and ketones. The critical feature of cardiac pathology is metabolic remodeling and loss of metabolic flexibility. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is one of the seven mammalian sirtuins (SIRT1 to SIRT7), with NAD+ dependent deacetylase activity. SIRT3 is expressed in high levels in healthy hearts but downregulated in the aged or diseased hearts. Experimental evidence shows that increasing SIRT3 levels or activity can ameliorate several cardiac pathologies. The primary deacetylation targets of SIRT3 are mitochondrial proteins, most of which are involved in energy metabolism. Thus, SIRT3 improves cardiac health by modulating cardiac energetics. In this review, we discuss the essential role of SIRT3 in regulating cardiac metabolism in the context of physiology and pathology. Specifically, we summarize the recent advancements that emphasize the critical role of SIRT3 as a master regulator of cardiac metabolism. We also present a comprehensive view of all known activators of SIRT3, and elaborate on their therapeutic potential to ameliorate energetic abnormalities in various cardiac pathologies.

Abstract
Malaria is a vector-borne disease. It is caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium yoelii is a rodent model parasite, primarily used for studying parasite development in liver cells and vectors. To better understand parasite biology, we carried out a high-throughput-based proteomic analysis of P. yoelii. From the same mass spectrometry (MS)/MS data set, we also captured several post-translational modified peptides by following a bioinformatics analysis without any prior enrichment. Further, we carried out a proteogenomic analysis, which resulted in improvements to some of the existing gene models along with the identification of several novel genes. Analysis of proteome and post-translational modifications (PTMs) together resulted in the identification of 3124 proteins. The identified PTMs were found to be enriched in mitochondrial metabolic pathways. Subsequent bioinformatics analysis provided an insight into proteins associated with metabolic regulatory mechanisms. Among these, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and the isoprenoid synthesis pathway are found to be essential for parasite survival and drug resistance. The proteogenomic analysis discovered 43 novel protein-coding genes. The availability of an in-depth proteomic landscape of a malaria pathogen model will likely facilitate further molecular-level investigations on pre-erythrocytic stages of malaria.

Abstract
Lysine crotonylation is a newly discovered post-translational modification (PTM) with key roles in various important regulatory pathways. Despite its functional significance, there is limited knowledge about crotonylation in fungi. Trichophyton rubrum is the most common fungal pathogen in human infection and is considered a model organism of dermatophytes and human pathogenic filamentous fungi. In this study, we obtained a proteome-wide crotonylation profile of T. rubrum, leading to the identification of 14,019 crotonylated sites on 3144 proteins. The crotonylated proteins were significantly involved in translation and in various metabolic and biosynthetic processes. Some proteins related to fungal pathogenicity were also found to be targets of crotonylation. In addition, extensive crotonylation was found on histones, suggesting a role in epigenetic regulation. Furthermore, about half of the crotonylated proteins were specific to either the conidial or the mycelial stage, and functional enrichment analysis showed some differences between the two stages. The results suggest that the difference in crotonylation between the two stages is not due to differences in protein abundance. Crosstalk of crotonylation with acetylation, propionylation, and succinylation suggests distinct regulatory roles. This study is the first crotonylation analysis in dermatophytes and human pathogenic filamentous fungi. These results represent a solid foundation for further research on PTM regulatory mechanisms in fungi and should facilitate improved antifungal strategies against these medical important species.

[PMID: 35138178 PMCID: PMC8917930 DOI: 10.1152/ajpcell.00451.2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2021] [Revised: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) acts as a cofactor in several oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions and is a substrate for a number of nonredox enzymes. NAD is fundamental to a variety of cellular processes including energy metabolism, cell signaling, and epigenetics. NAD homeostasis appears to be of paramount importance to health span and longevity, and its dysregulation is associated with multiple diseases. NAD metabolism is dynamic and maintained by synthesis and degradation. The enzyme CD38, one of the main NAD-consuming enzymes, is a key component of NAD homeostasis. The majority of CD38 is localized in the plasma membrane with its catalytic domain facing the extracellular environment, likely for the purpose of controlling systemic levels of NAD. Several cell types express CD38, but its expression predominates on endothelial cells and immune cells capable of infiltrating organs and tissues. Here we review potential roles of CD38 in health and disease and postulate ways in which CD38 dysregulation causes changes in NAD homeostasis and contributes to the pathophysiology of multiple conditions. Indeed, in animal models the development of infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, fibrosis, metabolic diseases, and age-associated diseases including cancer, heart disease, and neurodegeneration are associated with altered CD38 enzymatic activity. Many of these conditions are modified in CD38-deficient mice or by blocking CD38 NADase activity. In diseases in which CD38 appears to play a role, CD38-dependent NAD decline is often a common denominator of pathophysiology. Thus, understanding dysregulation of NAD homeostasis by CD38 may open new avenues for the treatment of human diseases.

Abstract
Lactate is a glycolytic product and a significant energy source. Moreover, it regulates gene transcription via lactylation of histones and non-histone proteins, i.e., a novel posttranslational modification. This review summarizes recent advances related to lactylation in lactate metabolism and diseases. Notably, lactylation plays a vital role in cancer, inflammation, and regeneration; however, the specific mechanism remains unclear. Histone lactylation regulates oncogenic processes by targeting gene transcription and inflammation via macrophage activation. Eventually, we identified research gaps and recommended several primary directions for further studies.
