Relocalization of Translation Termination and Ribosome Recycling Factors to Stress Granules Coincides with Elevated Stop-Codon Readthrough and Reinitiation Rates upon Oxidative Stress. Cells 2023; 12:259. [PMID: 36672194 PMCID: PMC9856671 DOI: 10.3390/cells12020259] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Upon oxidative stress, mammalian cells rapidly reprogram their translation. This is accompanied by the formation of stress granules (SGs), cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein condensates containing untranslated mRNA molecules, RNA-binding proteins, 40S ribosomal subunits, and a set of translation initiation factors. Here we show that arsenite-induced stress causes a dramatic increase in the stop-codon readthrough rate and significantly elevates translation reinitiation levels on uORF-containing and bicistronic mRNAs. We also report the recruitment of translation termination factors eRF1 and eRF3, as well as ribosome recycling and translation reinitiation factors ABCE1, eIF2D, MCT-1, and DENR to SGs upon arsenite treatment. Localization of these factors to SGs may contribute to a rapid resumption of mRNA translation after stress relief and SG disassembly. It may also suggest the presence of post-termination, recycling, or reinitiation complexes in SGs. This new layer of translational control under stress conditions, relying on the altered spatial distribution of translation factors between cellular compartments, is discussed.

Abstract
Phage display technology involves the surface genetic engineering of phages to expose desirable proteins or peptides whose gene sequences are packaged within phage genomes, thereby rendering direct linkage between genotype with phenotype feasible. This has resulted in phage display systems becoming invaluable components of directed evolutionary biotechnology. The M13 is a DNA phage display system which dominates this technology and usually involves selected proteins or peptides being displayed through surface engineering of its minor coat proteins. The displayed protein or peptide’s functionality is often highly reduced due to harsh treatment of M13 variants. Recently, we developed a novel phage display system using the coliphage Qβ as a nano-biotechnology platform. The coliphage Qβ is an RNA phage belonging to the family of Leviviridae, a long investigated virus. Qβ phages exist as a quasispecies and possess features making them comparatively more suitable and unique for directed evolutionary biotechnology. As a quasispecies, Qβ benefits from the promiscuity of its RNA dependent RNA polymerase replicase, which lacks proofreading activity, and thereby permits rapid variant generation, mutation, and adaptation. The minor coat protein of Qβ is the readthrough protein, A1. It shares the same initiation codon with the major coat protein and is produced each time the ribosome translates the UGA stop codon of the major coat protein with the of misincorporation of tryptophan. This misincorporation occurs at a low level (1/15). Per convention and definition, A1 is the target for display technology, as this minor coat protein does not play a role in initiating the life cycle of Qβ phage like the pIII of M13. The maturation protein A2 of Qβ initiates the life cycle by binding to the pilus of the F+ host bacteria. The extension of the A1 protein with a foreign peptide probe recognizes and binds to the target freely, while the A2 initiates the infection. This avoids any disturbance of the complex and the necessity for acidic elution and neutralization prior to infection. The combined use of both the A1 and A2 proteins of Qβ in this display system allows for novel bio-panning, in vitro maturation, and evolution. Additionally, methods for large library size construction have been improved with our directed evolutionary phage display system. This novel phage display technology allows 12 copies of a specific desired peptide to be displayed on the exterior surface of Qβ in uniform distribution at the corners of the phage icosahedron. Through the recently optimized subtractive bio-panning strategy, fusion probes containing up to 80 amino acids altogether with linkers, can be displayed for target selection. Thus, combined uniqueness of its genome, structure, and proteins make the Qβ phage a desirable suitable innovation applicable in affinity maturation and directed evolutionary biotechnology. The evolutionary adaptability of the Qβ phage display strategy is still in its infancy. However, it has the potential to evolve functional domains of the desirable proteins, glycoproteins, and lipoproteins, rendering them superior to their natural counterparts.

Oxidative Damage of Mussels Living in Seawater Enriched with Trace Metals, from the Viewpoint of Proteins Expression and Modification. TOXICS 2020; 8:toxics8040089. [PMID: 33081042 PMCID: PMC7711521 DOI: 10.3390/toxics8040089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2020] [Revised: 10/13/2020] [Accepted: 10/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
The impact of metals bioaccumulation in marine organisms is a subject of intense investigation. This study was designed to determine the association between oxidative stress induced by seawater enriched with trace metals and protein synthesis using as a model the mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis. Mussels were exposed to 40 μg/L Cu, 30 μg/L Hg, or 100 μg/L Cd for 5 and 15 days, and the pollution effect was evaluated by measuring established oxidative biomarkers. The results showed damage on the protein synthesis machine integrity and specifically on translation factors and ribosomal proteins expression and modifications. The exposure of mussels to all metals caused oxidative damage that was milder in the cases of Cu and Hg and more pronounced for Cd. However, after prolonged exposure of mussels to Cd (15 days), the effects receded. These changes that perturb protein biosynthesis can serve as a great tool for elucidating the mechanisms of toxicity and could be integrated in biomonitoring programs.

Abstract
Since their discovery in the 1960s, the family of Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases has undergone a tremendous expansion to include enzymes catalyzing a vast diversity of biologically important reactions. Recent examples highlight roles in controlling chromatin modification, transcription, mRNA demethylation, and mRNA splicing. Others generate modifications in tRNA, translation factors, ribosomes, and other proteins. Thus, oxygenases affect all components of molecular biology's central dogma, in which information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. These enzymes also function in biosynthesis and catabolism of cellular metabolites, including antibiotics and signaling molecules. Due to their critical importance, ongoing efforts have targeted family members for the development of specific therapeutics. This review provides a general overview of recently characterized oxygenase reactions and their key biological roles.

Abstract
Post-transcriptional modifications of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are involved in ribosome biogenesis and fine-tuning of translation. 5-Hydroxycytidine (ho5C), a modification of unknown biogenesis and function, is present at position 2501 of Escherichia coli 23S rRNA. We conducted a genome-wide screen in E. coli to identify genes required for ho5C2501 formation, and found a previously-uncharacterized gene, ydcP (renamed rlhA), iron-sulfur cluster (isc) genes, and a series of genes responsible for prephenate biosynthesis, indicating that iron-sulfur clusters and prephenate are required for ho5C2501 formation. RlhA interacted with precursors of the 50S ribosomal subunit, suggesting that this protein is directly involved in formation of ho5C2501. RlhA belongs to a family of enzymes with an uncharacterized peptidase U32 motif and conserved Cys residues in the C-terminal region. These elements were essential for ho5C2501 formation. We also found that the frequency of ho5C2501 is modulated by environmental iron concentration. Together, our results reveal a novel biosynthetic pathway for RNA hydroxylation and its response to iron.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are toxic by-products of normal aerobic metabolism. ROS can damage mRNAs and the translational apparatus resulting in translational defects and aberrant protein production. Three mRNA quality control systems monitor mRNAs for translational errors: nonsense-mediated decay, non-stop decay (NSD) and no-go decay (NGD) pathways. Here, we show that factors required for the recognition of NSD substrates and components of the SKI complex are required for oxidant tolerance. We found an overlapping requirement for Ski7, which bridges the interaction between the SKI complex and the exosome, and NGD components (Dom34/Hbs1) which have been shown to function in both NSD and NGD. We show that ski7 dom34 and ski7 hbs1 mutants are sensitive to hydrogen peroxide stress and accumulate an NSD substrate. We further show that NSD substrates are generated during ROS exposure as a result of aggregation of the Sup35 translation termination factor, which increases stop codon read-through allowing ribosomes to translate into the 3΄-end of mRNAs. Overexpression of Sup35 decreases stop codon read-through and rescues oxidant tolerance consistent with this model. Our data reveal an unanticipated requirement for the NSD pathway during oxidative stress conditions which prevents the production of aberrant proteins from NSD mRNAs.

Abstract
The posttranscriptional modifications of tRNA's anticodon stem and loop (ASL) domain represent a third level, a third code, to the accuracy and efficiency of translating mRNA codons into the correct amino acid sequence of proteins. Modifications of tRNA's ASL domain are enzymatically synthesized and site specifically located at the anticodon wobble position-34 and 3'-adjacent to the anticodon at position-37. Degeneracy of the 64 Universal Genetic Codes and the limitation in the number of tRNA species require some tRNAs to decode more than one codon. The specific modification chemistries and their impact on the tRNA's ASL structure and dynamics enable one tRNA to decode cognate and "wobble codons" or to expand recognition to synonymous codons, all the while maintaining the translational reading frame. Some modified nucleosides' chemistries prestructure tRNA to read the two codons of a specific amino acid that shares a twofold degenerate codon box, and other chemistries allow a different tRNA to respond to all four codons of a fourfold degenerate codon box. Thus, tRNA ASL modifications are critical and mutations in genes for the modification enzymes and tRNA, the consequences of which is a lack of modification, lead to mistranslation and human disease. By optimizing tRNA anticodon chemistries, structure, and dynamics in all organisms, modifications ensure translational fidelity of mRNA transcripts.

Abstract
Heat stress represents a key factor that negatively affects the productive and reproductive performance of farm animals. In the present work, a new measure of tolerance to heat stress for dairy cattle was developed using principal component analysis. Data were from 590,174 test-day records for milk yield, fat and protein percentages, and somatic cell score of 39,261 Italian Holstein cows. Test-day records adjusted for main systematic factors were grouped into 11 temperature-humidity index (THI) classes. Daughter trait deviations (DTD) were calculated for 1,540 bulls as means of the adjusted test-day records for each THI class. Principal component analysis was performed on the DTD for each bull. The first 2 principal components (PC) explained 42 to 51% of the total variance of the system across the 4 traits. The first PC, a measure of the level at which the curve is located, was interpreted as a measure of the level at which the DTD curve was located. The second PC, which shows the slope of increasing or decreases DTD curves, synthesized the behavior of the DTD pattern. Heritability of the 2 component scores was moderate to high for level across all traits (range = 0.23-0.82) and low to moderate for slope (range = 0.16-0.28). For each trait, phenotypic and genetic correlations between level and slope were equal to zero. A genome-wide association analysis was carried out on a subsample of 423 bulls genotyped with the Illumina 50K bovine bead chip (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Two single nucleotide polymorphisms were significantly associated with slope for milk yield, 4 with level for fat percentage, and 2 with level and slope of protein percentage, respectively. The gene discovery was carried out considering windows of 0.5 Mb surrounding the significant markers and highlighted some interesting candidate genes. Some of them have been already associated with the mechanism of heat tolerance as the heat shock transcription factor (HSF1) and the malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase (MCAT). The 2 PC were able to describe the overall level and the slope of response of milk production traits across increasing levels of THI index. Moreover, they exhibited genetic variability and were genetically uncorrelated. These features suggest their use as measures of thermotolerance in dairy cattle breeding schemes.

Abstract
In-frame premature termination codons (PTCs) (also referred to as nonsense mutations) comprise ~10% of all disease-associated gene lesions. PTCs reduce gene expression in two ways. First, PTCs prematurely terminate translation of an mRNA, leading to the production of a truncated polypeptide that often lacks normal function and/or is unstable. Second, PTCs trigger degradation of an mRNA by activating nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), a cellular pathway that recognizes and degrades mRNAs containing a PTC. Thus, translation termination and NMD are putative therapeutic targets for the development of treatments for genetic diseases caused by PTCs. Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in the identification of compounds with the ability to suppress translation termination of PTCs (also referred to as readthrough). More recently, NMD inhibitors have also been explored as a way to enhance the efficiency of PTC suppression. Due to their relatively low threshold for correction, lysosomal storage diseases are a particularly relevant group of diseases to investigate the feasibility of nonsense suppression as a therapeutic approach. In this review, the current status of PTC suppression and NMD inhibition as potential treatments for lysosomal storage diseases will be discussed.
