Abstract
Metabolic alterations in cancer precipitate in associated dependencies that can be therapeutically exploited. To meet this goal, natural product-inspired small molecules can provide a resource of invaluable chemotypes. Here, we identify orpinolide, a synthetic withanolide analog with pronounced antileukemic properties, via orthogonal chemical screening. Through multiomics profiling and genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 screens, we identify that orpinolide disrupts Golgi homeostasis via a mechanism that requires active phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate signaling at the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi membrane interface. Thermal proteome profiling and genetic validation studies reveal the oxysterol-binding protein OSBP as the direct and phenotypically relevant target of orpinolide. Collectively, these data reaffirm sterol transport as a therapeutically actionable dependency in leukemia and motivate ensuing translational investigation via the probe-like compound orpinolide.

Abstract
Flatworms are known for their remarkable regenerative ability, one which depends on totipotent cells known as germinative cells in cestodes. Depletion of germinative cells with hydroxyurea (HU) affects the regeneration of the parasite. Here, we studied the reduction and recovery of germinative cells in T. crassiceps cysticerci after HU treatment (25 mM and 40 mM of HU for 6 days) through in vitro assays. Viability and morphological changes were evaluated. The recovery of cysticerci's mobility and morphology was evaluated at 3 and 6 days, after 6 days of treatment. The number of proliferative cells was evaluated using EdU. Our results show morphological changes in the size, shape, and number of evaginated cysticerci at the 40 mM dose. The mobility of cysticerci was lower after 6 days of HU treatment at both concentrations. On days 3 and 6 of recovery after 25 mM of HU treatment, a partial recovery of the proliferative cells was observed. Proteomic and Gene Ontology analyses identified modifications in protein groups related to DNA binding, DNA damage, glycolytic enzymes, cytoskeleton, skeletal muscle, and RNA binding.

Abstract
Fusarium graminearum is a dominant phytopathogenic fungus causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereal crops. Heat-stable antifungal factor (HSAF) is a polycyclic tetramate macrolactam (PoTeM) isolated from Lysobacter enzymogenes that exhibits strong antifungal activity against F. graminearum. HSAF significantly reduces the DON production and virulence of F. graminearum. Importantly, HSAF exhibited no cross-resistance to carbendazim, phenamacril, tebuconazole and pydiflumetofen. However, the target protein of HSAF in F. graminearum is unclear. In this study, the oxysterol-binding protein FgORP1 was identified as the potential target of HSAF using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) combined with RNA-sequence (RNA-seq). The RNA-seq results showed cell membrane and ergosterol biosynthesis were significantly impacted by HSAF in F. graminearum. Molecular docking showed that HSAF binds with arginine 1205 and glutamic acid 1212, which are located in the oxysterol-binding domain of FgORP1. The two amino acids in FgORP1 are responsible for HSAF resistance in F. graminearum though site-directed mutagenesis. Furthermore, deletion of FgORP1 led to significantly decreased sensitivity to HSAF. Additionally, FgORP1 regulates the mycelial growth, conidiation, DON production, ergosterol biosynthesis and virulence in F. graminearum. Overall, our findings revealed the mode of action of HSAF against F. graminearum, indicating that HSAF is a promising fungicide for controlling FHB.

Abstract
The global burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) has rapidly increased in recent years. Dysregulated cholesterol homeostasis facilitated by extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling transforms the tumor microenvironment. Collagen I, a major with ECM component is highly expressed in colorectal tumors with infiltrative growth. Although oxysterol binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins accommodate tumorigenesis, OSBPL2, which is usually involved in deafness, is not associated with CRC progression. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the pathological function of OSBPL2 and identify the molecular link between ECM-Collagen I and OSBPL2 in CRC to facilitate the development of new treatments for CRC. OSBPL2 predicted a favorable prognosis in stage IV CRC and substantially repressed Collagen I-induced focal adhesion, migration, and invasion. The reduction of OSBPL2 activated ERK signaling through the VCAN/AREG/EREG axis during CRC growth, while relying on PARP1 via ZEB1 in CRC metastasis. OSBPL2 defect supported colorectal tumor growth and metastasis, which were suppressed by the ERK and PARP1 inhibitors SCH772984 and AG14361, respectively. Overall, our findings revealed that the Collagen I-induced loss of OSBPL2 aggravates CRC progression through VCAN-mediated ERK signaling and the PARP1/ZEB1 axis. This demonstrates that SCH772984 and AG14361 are reciprocally connective therapies for OSBPL2Low CRC, which could contribute to further development of targeted CRC treatment.

Abstract
Abnormal distribution of cellular cholesterol is associated with numerous diseases, including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Regulated transport of cholesterol is critical for maintaining its proper distribution in the cell, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we show that lipid transfer proteins, namely ORP9, OSBP, and GRAMD1s/Asters (GRAMD1a/GRAMD1b/GRAMD1c), control non-vesicular cholesterol transport at points of contact between the ER and the trans-Golgi network (TGN), thereby maintaining cellular cholesterol distribution. ORP9 localizes to the TGN via interaction between its tandem α-helices and ORP10/ORP11. ORP9 extracts PI4P from the TGN to prevent its overaccumulation and suppresses OSBP-mediated PI4P-driven cholesterol transport to the Golgi. By contrast, GRAMD1s transport excess cholesterol from the Golgi to the ER, thereby preventing its build-up. Cells lacking ORP9 exhibit accumulation of cholesterol at the Golgi, which is further enhanced by additional depletion of GRAMD1s with major accumulation in the plasma membrane. This is accompanied by chronic activation of the SREBP-2 signalling pathway. Our findings reveal the importance of regulated lipid transport at ER-Golgi contacts for maintaining cellular cholesterol distribution and homeostasis.

Increased Phospholipid Flux Bypasses Overlapping Essential Requirements for the Yeast Sac1p Phosphoinositide Phosphatase and ER-PM Membrane Contact Sites. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:105092.

Abstract
In budding yeast cells, much of the inner surface of the plasma membrane (PM) is covered with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). This association is mediated by seven ER membrane proteins that confer cortical ER-PM association at membrane contact sites (MCSs). Several of these membrane "tether" proteins are known to physically interact with the phosphoinositide phosphatase Sac1p. However, it is unclear how or if these interactions are necessary for their interdependent functions. We find that SAC1 inactivation in cells lacking the homologous synaptojanin-like genes INP52 and INP53 results in a significant increase in cortical ER-PM MCSs. We show in sac1Δ, sac1tsinp52Δ inp53Δ, or Δ-super-tether (Δ-s-tether) cells lacking all seven ER-PM tethering genes that phospholipid biosynthesis is disrupted and phosphoinositide distribution is altered. Furthermore, SAC1 deletion in Δ-s-tether cells results in lethality, indicating a functional overlap between SAC1 and ER-PM tethering genes. Transcriptomic profiling indicates that SAC1 inactivation in either Δ-s-tether or inp52Δ inp53Δ cells induces an ER membrane stress response and elicits phosphoinositide-dependent changes in expression of autophagy genes. In addition, by isolating high-copy suppressors that rescue sac1Δ Δ-s-tether lethality, we find that key phospholipid biosynthesis genes bypass the overlapping function of SAC1 and ER-PM tethers and that overexpression of the phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate transfer protein Osh6 also provides limited suppression. Combined with lipidomic analysis and determinations of intracellular phospholipid distributions, these results suggest that Sac1p and ER phospholipid flux controls lipid distribution to drive Osh6p-dependent phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate counter-exchange at ER-PM MCSs.

Abstract
Heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) are a group of regulators essential for signal transmission into cells. Regulator of G protein signaling 1 (AtRGS1) possesses intrinsic GTPase-accelerating protein (GAP) activity and could suppress G protein and glucose signal transduction in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). However, how AtRGS1 activity is regulated is poorly understood. Here, we identified a knockout mutant of oxysterol binding protein-related protein 2A, orp2a-1, which exhibits similar phenotypes to the arabidopsis g-protein beta 1-2 (agb1-2) mutant. Transgenic lines overexpressing ORP2A displayed short hypocotyls, a hypersensitive response to sugar, and lower intracellular AtRGS1 levels than the control. Consistently, ORP2A interacted with AtRGS1 in vitro and in vivo. Tissue-specific expression of 2 ORP2A alternative splicing isoforms implied functions in controlling organ size and shape. Bioinformatic data and phenotypes of orp2a-1, agb1-2, and the orp2a-1 agb1-2 double mutant revealed the genetic interactions between ORP2A and Gβ in the regulation of G protein signaling and sugar response. Both alternative protein isoforms of ORP2A localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), plasma membrane (PM), and ER-PM contact sites and interacted with vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein 27-1 (VAP27-1) in vivo and in vitro through their two phenylalanines in an acidic track-like motif. ORP2A also displayed differential phosphatidyl phosphoinositide binding activity mediated by the pleckstrin homology domain in vitro. Taken together, the Arabidopsis membrane protein ORP2A interacts with AtRGS1 and VAP27-1 to positively regulate G protein and sugar signaling by facilitating AtRGS1 degradation.

Abstract
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is one of the deadliest and most aggressive hematological malignancies, but its pathological mechanism in controlling cell survival is not fully understood. Oculocerebrorenal syndrome (also called Lowe syndrome) is a rare X-linked recessive disorder characterized by cataracts, intellectual disability, and proteinuria. This disease has been shown to be caused by mutation of Oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe 1 (OCRL1; OCRL), encoding a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] 5-phosphatase involved in regulating membrane trafficking, however, its function in cancer cells is unclear. Here, we uncovered that OCRL1 is overexpressed in T-ALL cells and knockdown of OCRL1 results in cell death, indicating the essential role of OCRL in controlling T-ALL cell survival. We show OCRL is primarily localized in the Golgi, and can translocate to plasma membrane (PM) upon ligand stimulation. We found OCRL interacts with OSBP-related protein 4L (ORP4L), which facilitates OCRL translocation from the Golgi to the PM upon cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) stimulation. Thus, OCRL represses the activity of ORP4L to prevent excessive PI(4,5)P2 hydrolysis by phosphoinositide phospholipase C β3 (PLCβ3) and uncontrolled Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We propose OCRL1 deletion leads to accumulation of PI(4,5)P2 in the PM, disrupting the normal Ca2+ oscillation pattern in the cytosol and leading to mitochondrial Ca2+ overloading, ultimately causing T-ALL cell mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death. These results highlight a critical role for OCRL in maintaining moderate PI(4,5)P2 availability in T-ALL cells. Our findings also raise the possibility of targeting OCRL1 to treat T-ALL disease.

Exp Cell Res 2023; 427:113601. [PMID: 37054771 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2023.113601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Revised: 04/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
ORP8 has been reported to suppress tumor progression in various malignancies. However, the functions and underlying mechanisms of ORP8 are still unknown in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Here, decreased expression of ORP8 was detected in RCC tissues and cell lines. Functional assays verified that ORP8 suppressed RCC cell growth, migration, invasion, and metastasis. Mechanistically, ORP8 attenuated Stathmin1 expression by accelerating ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation and led to an increase in microtubule polymerization. Lastly, ORP8 knockdown partly rescued microtubule polymerization, as well as aggressive cell phenotypes induced by paclitaxel. Our findings elucidated that ORP8 suppressed the malignant progression of RCC by increasing Stathmin1 degradation and microtubule polymerization, thus suggesting that ORP8 might be a novel target for the treatment of RCC.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus plays an important role in maintaining cell homeostasis by serving as a biosynthetic center for glycans, lipids and post-translationally modified proteins and as a sorting center for vesicular transport of proteins to specific destinations. Moreover, it provides a signaling hub that facilitates not only membrane trafficking processes but also cellular response pathways to various types of stresses. Altered signaling at the Golgi apparatus has emerged as a key regulator of tumor growth and survival. Among the small molecules that can specifically perturb or modulate Golgi proteins and organization, natural products with anticancer property have been identified as powerful chemical probes in deciphering Golgi-related pathways and, in particular, recently described Golgi stress response pathways. In this review, we highlight a set of Golgi-targeting natural products that enabled the characterization of the Golgi-mediated signaling events leading to cancer cell death and discuss the potential for selectively exploiting these pathways for the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and OSBP-related protein 4 (ORP4) have emerged as potentially druggable targets in antiviral and precision cancer drug development. Multiple structurally diverse small molecules function through targeting the OSBP/ORP family of proteins, including the antiviral steroidal compounds OSW-1 and T-00127-HEV2. Here, the structure-activity relationships of oxysterols and related compound binding to human OSBP and ORP4 are characterized. Oxysterols with hydroxylation at various side chain positions (i.e., C-20, C-24, C-25, and C-27)─but not C-22─confer high affinity interactions with OSBP and ORP4. A library of 20(S)-hydroxycholesterol analogues with varying sterol side chains reveal that side chain length modifications are not well tolerated for OSBP and ORP4 interactions. This side chain requirement is contradicted by the high affinity binding of T-00127-HEV2, a steroidal compound lacking the side chain. The binding results, in combination with docking studies using homology models of OSBP and ORP4, suggest multiple modes of steroidal ligand binding to OSBP and ORP4.

J Biol Chem 2023; 299:104578.

Abstract
The CDP-choline (Kennedy) pathway culminates with the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by choline/ethanolamine phosphotransferase 1 (CEPT1) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and PC synthesis by choline phosphotransferase 1 (CHPT1) in the Golgi apparatus. Whether the PC and PE synthesized by CEPT1 and CHPT1 in the ER and Golgi apparatus has different cellular functions has not been formally addressed. Here we used CRISPR editing to generate CEPT1-and CHPT1-knockout (KO) U2OS cells to assess the differential contribution of the enzymes to feed-back regulation of nuclear CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CCT)α, the rate-limiting enzyme in PC synthesis, and lipid droplet (LD) biogenesis. We found that CEPT1-KO cells had a 50% and 80% reduction in PC and PE synthesis, respectively, while PC synthesis in CHPT1-KO cells was also reduced by 50%. CEPT1 knockout caused the post-transcriptional induction of CCTα protein expression as well as its dephosphorylation and constitutive localization on the inner nuclear membrane and nucleoplasmic reticulum. This activated CCTα phenotype was prevented by incubating CEPT1-KO cells with PC liposomes to restore end-product inhibition. Additionally, we determined that CEPT1 was in close proximity to cytoplasmic LDs, and CEPT1 knockout resulted in the accumulation of small cytoplasmic LDs, as well as increased nuclear LDs enriched in CCTα. In contrast, CHPT1 knockout had no effect on CCTα regulation or LD biogenesis. Thus, CEPT1 and CHPT1 contribute equally to PC synthesis; however, only PC synthesized by CEPT1 in the ER regulates CCTα and the biogenesis of cytoplasmic and nuclear LDs.

Abstract
Cholesterol (Chol) is an essential component of all eukaryotic cell membranes that affects the function of numerous peripheral as well as integral membrane proteins. Chol is synthesized in the ER, but it is selectively enriched within the plasma membrane (PM) and other endomembranes, which requires Chol to cross the aqueous phase of the cytoplasm. In addition to the classical vesicular trafficking pathways that are known to facilitate the bulk transport of membrane intermediates, Chol is also transported via non-vesicular lipid transfer proteins that work primarily within specialized membrane contact sites. Some of these transport pathways work against established concentration gradients and hence require energy. Recent studies highlight the unique role of phosphoinositides (PPIns), and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) in particular, for the control of non-vesicular Chol transport. In this chapter, we will review the emerging connection between Chol, PPIns, and lipid transfer proteins that include the important family of oxysterol-binding protein related proteins, or ORPs.

Abstract
Maintaining lipid composition diversity in membranes from different organelles is critical for numerous cellular processes. However, many lipids are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and require delivery to other organelles. In this scenario, formation of membrane contact sites (MCS) between neighbouring organelles has emerged as a novel non-vesicular lipid transport mechanism. Dissecting the molecular composition of MCS identified phosphoinositides (PIs), cholesterol, scaffolding/tethering proteins as well as Ca2+ and Ca2+-binding proteins contributing to MCS functioning. Compelling evidence now exists for the shuttling of PIs and cholesterol across MCS, affecting their concentrations in distinct membrane domains and diverse roles in membrane trafficking. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) at the plasma membrane (PM) not only controls endo-/exocytic membrane dynamics but is also critical in autophagy. Cholesterol is highly concentrated at the PM and enriched in recycling endosomes and Golgi membranes. MCS-mediated cholesterol transfer is intensely researched, identifying MCS dysfunction or altered MCS partnerships to correlate with de-regulated cellular cholesterol homeostasis and pathologies. Annexins, a conserved family of Ca2+-dependent phospholipid binding proteins, contribute to tethering and untethering events at MCS. In this chapter, we will discuss how Ca2+ homeostasis and annexins in the endocytic compartment affect the sensing and transfer of cholesterol and PIs across MCS.

Abstract
Autophagy is an intracellular degradation system for cytoplasmic constituents which is mediated by the formation of a double-membrane organelle termed the autophagosome and its subsequent fusion with the lysosome/vacuole. The formation of the autophagosome requires membrane from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is tightly regulated by a series of autophagy-related (ATG) proteins and lipids. However, how the ER contacts autophagosomes and regulates autophagy remain elusive in plants. In this study, we identified and demonstrated the roles of Arabidopsis oxysterol-binding protein-related protein 2A (ORP2A) in mediating ER-autophagosomal membrane contacts and autophagosome biogenesis. We showed that ORP2A localizes to both ER-plasma membrane contact sites (EPCSs) and autophagosomes, and that ORP2A interacts with both the ER-localized VAMP-associated protein (VAP) 27-1 and ATG8e on the autophagosomes to mediate the membrane contact sites (MCSs). In ORP2A artificial microRNA knockdown (KD) plants, seedlings display retarded growth and impaired autophagy levels. Both ATG1a and ATG8e accumulated and associated with the ER membrane in ORP2A KD lines. Moreover, ORP2A binds multiple phospholipids and shows colocalization with phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) in vivo. Taken together, ORP2A mediates ER-autophagosomal MCSs and regulates autophagy through PI3P redistribution.

Abstract
Identifying genes associated with wax deposition may contribute to the genetic improvement of ornamental kale. Here, we characterized a candidate gene for wax contents, BoORP3a, encoding an oxysterol-binding protein. We sequenced the BoORP3a gene and coding sequence from the high-wax line S0835 and the low-wax line F0819, which revealed 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms between the two lines, of which six caused five amino acids substitutions. BoORP3a appeared to be relatively well conserved in Brassicaceae, as determined by a phylogenetic analysis, and localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and the nucleus. To confirm the role of BoORP3a in wax deposition, we generated three orp3a mutants in a high-wax kale background via CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing. Importantly, all three mutants exhibited lower wax contents and glossy leaves. Overall, these data suggest that BoORP3a may participate in cuticular wax deposition in ornamental kale.

Abstract
It is well-known that excessive cholesterol leads to hypercholesterolemia, arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, stroke, and other diseases, which seriously threatens human health. Lactobacillus, a prokaryote, is reported to utilize cholesterol in the environment. However, little research focuses on the cholesterol utilization by eukaryote. Hence, the objectives of the present study were to investigate the mechanism of cholesterol utilization by the eukaryote and determine the role of oxysterol binding protein in this process. Our results showed for the first time that Aspergillus oryzae, a food-safe filamentous fungus, can utilize cholesterol efficiently. Our results also demonstrated that cholesterol utilization by A. oryzae might promote the conversion of ergosterol to ergosterol peroxide. Osh3, an oxysterol binding protein, can bind sterols (e.g., cholesterol, ergosterol, and ergosterol peroxide) and plays an important role in sterols transportation. This research is of considerable significance for developing low-fat food and cholesterol-lowering probiotics.

Abstract
Members of the family of oxysterol-binding proteins mediate non-vesicular lipid transport between membranes and contribute to longevity in different manners. We previously found that a 2-fold up-regulation of Osh6, one of seven yeast oxysterol-binding proteins, remedies vacuolar morphology defects in mid-aged cells, partly down-regulates the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1), and increases the replicative lifespan. At the molecular level, Osh6 transports phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the plasma membrane (PM). To decipher how an ER-PM working protein controls vacuolar morphology, we tested genetic interactions between OSH6 and DRS2, whose protein flips PS from the lumen to the cytosolic side of the Golgi, the organelle between ER and vacuoles in many pathways. Up-regulated OSH6 complemented vacuolar morphology of drs2Δ and enriched PI4P on the Golgi, indicating that Osh6 also works on the Golgi. This altered PI4P-enrichment led to a delay in the secretion of the proton ATPase Pma1 to the PM and a rerouting of Pma1 to vacuoles in a manner dependent on the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to late endosome (LE) trafficking pathway. Since the TGN-LE pathway controls endosomal and vacuolar TORC1, it may be the anti-aging pathway boosted by up-regulated Osh6.

Abstract
Background Feed efficiency (FE) related traits play a key role in the economy and sustainability of beef cattle production systems. The accurate knowledge of the physiologic background for FE-related traits can help the development of more efficient selection strategies for them. Hence, multi-trait weighted GWAS (MTwGWAS) and meta-analyze were used to find genomic regions associated with average daily gain (ADG), dry matter intake (DMI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), feed efficiency (FE), and residual feed intake (RFI). The FE-related traits and genomic information belong to two breeding programs that perform the FE test at different ages: post-weaning (1,024 animals IZ population) and post-yearling (918 animals for the QLT population). Results The meta-analyze MTwGWAS identified 14 genomic regions (-log10(p -value) > 5) regions mapped on BTA 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 14, 15, 18, 21, and 29. These regions explained a large proportion of the total genetic variance for FE-related traits across-population ranging from 20% (FCR) to 36% (DMI) in the IZ population and from 22% (RFI) to 28% (ADG) in the QLT population. Relevant candidate genes within these regions (LIPE, LPL, IGF1R, IGF1, IGFBP5, IGF2, INS, INSR, LEPR, LEPROT, POMC, NPY, AGRP, TGFB1, GHSR, JAK1, LYN, MOS, PLAG1, CHCD7, LCAT, and PLA2G15) highlighted that the physiological mechanisms related to neuropeptides and the metabolic signals controlling the body's energy balance are responsible for leading to greater feed efficiency. Integrated meta-analysis results and functional pathway enrichment analysis highlighted the major effect of biological functions linked to energy, lipid metabolism, and hormone signaling that mediates the effects of peptide signals in the hypothalamus and whole-body energy homeostasis affecting the genetic control of FE-related traits in Nellore cattle. Conclusions Genes and pathways associated with common signals for feed efficiency-related traits provide better knowledge about regions with biological relevance in physiological mechanisms associated with differences in energy metabolism and hypothalamus signaling. These pleiotropic regions would support the selection for feed efficiency-related traits, incorporating and pondering causal variations assigning prior weights in genomic selection approaches.

Quon E, Nenadic A, Zaman MF, Johansen J, Beh CT. ER-PM membrane contact site regulation by yeast ORPs and membrane stress pathways. PLoS Genet 2022; 18:e1010106. [PMID: 35239652 PMCID: PMC8923467 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1010106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In yeast, at least seven proteins (Ice2p, Ist2p, Scs2/22p, Tcb1-Tcb3p) affect cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) tethering and contact with the plasma membrane (PM). In Δ-super-tether (Δ-s-tether) cells that lack these tethers, cortical ER-PM association is all but gone. Yeast OSBP homologue (Osh) proteins are also implicated in membrane contact site (MCS) assembly, perhaps as subunits for multicomponent tethers, though their function at MCSs involves intermembrane lipid transfer. Paradoxically, when analyzed by fluorescence and electron microscopy, the elimination of the OSH gene family does not reduce cortical ER-PM association but dramatically increases it. In response to the inactivation of all Osh proteins, the yeast E-Syt (extended-synaptotagmin) homologue Tcb3p is post-transcriptionally upregulated thereby generating additional Tcb3p-dependent ER-PM MCSs for recruiting more cortical ER to the PM. Although the elimination of OSH genes and the deletion of ER-PM tether genes have divergent effects on cortical ER-PM association, both elicit the Environmental Stress Response (ESR). Through comparisons of transcriptomic profiles of cells lacking OSH genes or ER-PM tethers, changes in ESR expression are partially manifested through the induction of the HOG (high-osmolarity glycerol) PM stress pathway or the ER-specific UPR (unfolded protein response) pathway, respectively. Defects in either UPR or HOG pathways also increase ER-PM MCSs, and expression of extra “artificial ER-PM membrane staples” rescues growth of UPR mutants challenged with lethal ER stress. Transcriptome analysis of OSH and Δ-s-tether mutants also revealed dysregulation of inositol-dependent phospholipid gene expression, and the combined lethality of osh4Δ and Δ-s-tether mutations is suppressed by overexpression of the phosphatidic acid biosynthetic gene, DGK1. These findings establish that the Tcb3p tether is induced by ER and PM stresses and ER-PM MCSs augment responses to membrane stresses, which are integrated through the broader ESR pathway. Membrane contact sites (MCSs) between the two largest cellular membranes, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the plasma membrane (PM), are regulatory interfaces for lipid synthesis and bidirectional transport. The yeast Osh protein family, which represents the seven yeast oxysterol-binding protein related proteins (ORPs), is implicated in MCS regulation and lipid transfer between membranes. Ironically, we find that when all Osh proteins eliminated, ER-PM association is not reduced but significantly increases. We hypothesized this increase is due to compensatory increases in levels of tether proteins that physically link the ER and PM. In fact, in response to inactivating Osh protein expression, amounts of the tether protein Tcb3 increase and more ER-PM MCSs are produced. By testing the genomic transcriptional responses to the elimination of OSH and ER-PM tether genes, we find these mutants disrupt phospholipid regulation and they elicit the Environmental Stress Response (ESR) pathway, which integrates many different responses needed for recovery after cellular stress. OSH and ER-PM tether genes affect specific stress response pathways that impact the PM and ER, respectively. Combining OSH and tether mutations results in cell lethality, but these cells survive by increased expression of a key phospholipid biosynthetic gene. Based on these results, we propose that OSH and ER-PM tether genes affect phospholipid regulation and protect the PM and ER through membrane stress responses integrated through the ESR pathway.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) has been responsible for mass mortalities in the aquaculture industry worldwide, with great economic and environmental impact. The present review aims to summarize the current knowledge of gene expression responses to nervous necrosis virus infection in different fish species based on transcriptomic analysis data. Four electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS were searched, and more than 500 publications on the subject were identified. Following the application of the appropriate testing, a total of 24 articles proved eligible for this review. NNV infection of different host species, in different developmental stages and tissues, presented in the eligible publications, are described in detail, revealing and highlighting genes and pathways that are most affected by the viral infection. Those transcriptome studies of NNV infected fish are oriented in elucidating the roles of genes/biomarkers for functions of special interest, depending on each study’s specific emphasis. This review presents a first attempt to provide an overview of universal host reaction mechanisms to viral infections, which will provide us with new perspectives to overcome NNV infection to build healthier and sustainable aquaculture systems.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) homologues, designated ORP or OSBPL proteins, constitute one of the largest families of intracellular lipid-binding/transfer proteins (LTP). This review summarizes the mounting evidence that several members of this family participate in the machinery facilitating cholesterol trafficking in the late endocytic pathway. There are indications that OSBP, besides acting as a cholesterol/phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) exchanger at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-trans-Golgi network (TGN) membrane contact sites (MCS), also exchanges these lipids at ER-lysosome (Lys) contacts, increasing Lys cholesterol content. The long isoform of ORP1 (ORP1L), which also targets ER-late endosome (LE)/Lys MCS, has the capacity to mediate cholesterol transport either from ER to LE or in the opposite direction. Moreover, it regulates the motility, positioning and fusion of LE as well as autophagic flux. ORP2, the closest relative of ORP1, is mainly cytosolic, but also targets PI(4,5)P2-rich endosomal compartments. Our latest data suggest that ORP2 transfers cholesterol from LE to recycling endosomes (RE) in exchange for PI(4,5)P2, thus stimulating the recruitment of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) on the RE and cell adhesion. FAK activates phosphoinositide kinase on the RE to enhance PI(4,5)P2 synthesis. ORP2 in turn transfers PI(4,5)P2 from RE to LE, thus regulating LE tubule formation and transport activity.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and OSBP-related proteins (ORPs) constitute one of the largest families of lipid-binding/transfer proteins (LTPs) in eukaryotes. The current view is that many of them mediate inter-organelle lipid transfer over membrane contact sites (MCS). The transfer occurs in several cases in a 'counter-current' fashion: A lipid such as cholesterol or phosphatidylserine (PS) is transferred against its concentration gradient driven by transport of a phosphoinositide in the opposite direction. In this way ORPs are envisioned to maintain the distinct organelle lipid compositions, with impacts on multiple organelle functions. However, the functions of ORPs extend beyond lipid homeostasis to regulation of processes such as cell survival, proliferation and migration. Important expanding areas of mammalian ORP research include their roles in viral and bacterial infections, cancers, and neuronal function. The yeast OSBP homologue (Osh) proteins execute multifaceted functions in sterol and glycerophospholipid homeostasis, post-Golgi vesicle transport, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate, sphingolipid and target of rapamycin (TOR) signalling, and cell cycle control. These observations identify ORPs as lipid transporters and coordinators of signals with an unforeseen variety of cellular processes. Understanding their activities not only enlightens the biology of the living cell but also allows their employment as targets of new therapeutic approaches for disease.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) serve as a zone for nonvesicular lipid transport by oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins (ORPs). ORPs mediate lipid countertransport, in which two distinct lipids are transported counterdirectionally. How such lipid countertransport controls specific biological functions, however, remains elusive. We report that lipid countertransport by ORP10 at ER–endosome MCSs regulates retrograde membrane trafficking. ORP10, together with ORP9 and VAP, formed ER–endosome MCSs in a phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P)-dependent manner. ORP10 exhibited a lipid exchange activity toward its ligands, PI4P and phosphatidylserine (PS), between liposomes in vitro, and between the ER and endosomes in situ. Cell biological analysis demonstrated that ORP10 supplies a pool of PS from the ER, in exchange for PI4P, to endosomes where the PS-binding protein EHD1 is recruited to facilitate endosome fission. Our study highlights a novel lipid exchange at ER–endosome MCSs as a nonenzymatic PI4P-to-PS conversion mechanism that organizes membrane remodeling during retrograde membrane trafficking.

Abstract
For centuries, cancer has been a lingering dark cloud floating on people's heads. With rapid population growth and aging worldwide, cancer incidence and mortality are growing rapidly. Despite major advances in oncotherapy including surgery, radiation and chemical therapy, as well as immunotherapy and targeted therapy, cancer is expected be the leading cause of premature death in this century. Nowadays, natural compounds with potential anticancer effects have become an indispensable natural treasure for discovering clinically useful agents and made remarkable achievements in cancer chemotherapy. In this regards, OSW-1, which was isolated from the bulbs of Ornithogalum saundersiae in 1992, has exhibited powerful anticancer activities in various cancers. However, after almost three decades, OSW-1 is still far from becoming a real anticancer agent for its anticancer mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, in this review we summarize the available evidence on the anticancer effects and mechanisms of OSW-1 in vitro and in vivo, and some insights for researchers who are interested in OSW-1 as a potential anticancer drug. We conclude that OSW-1 is a potential candidate for anticancer drugs and deserves further study.

Abstract
ER-plasma membrane (PM) contacts are proposed to be held together by distinct families of tethering proteins, which in yeast include the VAP homologues Scs2/22, the extended-synaptotagmin homologues Tcb1/2/3, and the TMEM16 homologue Ist2. It is unclear whether these tethers act redundantly or whether individual tethers have specific functions at contacts. Here, we show that Ist2 directly recruits the phosphatidylserine (PS) transport proteins and ORP family members Osh6 and Osh7 to ER-PM contacts through a binding site located in Ist2's disordered C-terminal tethering region. This interaction is required for phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) production by the PS decarboxylase Psd2, whereby PS transported from the ER to the PM by Osh6/7 is endocytosed to the site of Psd2 in endosomes/Golgi/vacuoles. This role for Ist2 and Osh6/7 in nonvesicular PS transport is specific, as other tethers/transport proteins do not compensate. Thus, we identify a molecular link between the ORP and TMEM16 families and a role for endocytosis of PS in PE synthesis.

Abstract
Oxysterols, or cholesterol oxidation products, are naturally occurring lipids which regulate the physiology of cells, including those of the immune system. In contrast to effects that are mediated through nuclear receptors or by epigenetic mechanism, which take tens of minutes to occur, changes in the activities of cell-surface receptors caused by oxysterols can be extremely rapid, often taking place within subsecond timescales. Such cell-surface receptor effects of oxysterols allow for the regulation of fast cellular processes, such as motility, secretion and endocytosis. These cellular processes play critical roles in both the innate and adaptive immune systems. This review will survey the two broad classes of cell-surface receptors for oxysterols (G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and ion channels), the mechanisms by which cholesterol oxidation products act on them, and their presence and functions in the different cell types of the immune system. Overall, this review will highlight the potential of oxysterols, synthetic derivatives and their receptors for physiological and therapeutic modulation of the immune system.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites (MCS) are regions of close apposition between membrane-bound organelles. Proteins that occupy MCS display various domain organisation. Among them, lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) frequently contain both structured domains as well as regions of intrinsic disorder. In this review, we discuss the various roles of intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDPRs) in LTPs as well as in other proteins that are associated with organelle contact sites. We distinguish the following functions: (i) to act as flexible tethers between two membranes; (ii) to act as entropic barriers to prevent protein crowding and regulate membrane tethering geometry; (iii) to define the action range of catalytic domains. These functions are added to other functions of IDPRs in membrane environments, such as mediating protein-protein and protein-membrane interactions. We suggest that the overall efficiency and fidelity of contact sites might require fine coordination between all these IDPR activities.

Abstract
Lipids must be correctly transported within the cell to the right place at the right time in order to be fully functional. Non-vesicular lipid transport is mediated by so-called lipid transfer proteins (LTPs), which contain a hydrophobic cavity that sequesters lipid molecules. Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins (ORPs) are a family of LTPs known to harbor lipid ligands, such as cholesterol and phospholipids. ORPs act as a sensor or transporter of those lipid ligands at membrane contact sites (MCSs) where two different cellular membranes are closely apposed. In particular, a characteristic functional property of ORPs is their role as a lipid exchanger. ORPs mediate counter-directional transport of two different lipid ligands at MCSs. Several, but not all, ORPs transport their lipid ligand from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in exchange for phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), the other ligand, on apposed membranes. This ORP-mediated lipid “countertransport” is driven by the concentration gradient of PI4P between membranes, which is generated by its kinases and phosphatases. In this review, we will discuss how ORP function is tightly coupled to metabolism of phosphoinositides such as PI4P. Recent progress on the role of ORP-mediated lipid transport/countertransport at multiple MCSs in cellular functions will be also discussed.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein-like 2 (OSBPL2), also known as oxysterol-binding protein-related protein (ORP) 2, is a member of lipid transfer protein well-known for its role in regulating cholesterol homeostasis. A recent study reported that OSBPL2/ORP2 localizes to lipid droplets (LDs) and is associated with energy metabolism and obesity. However, the function of OSBPL2/ORP2 in adipocyte differentiation is poorly understood. Here, we report that OSBPL2/ORP2 contributes to the developmental progression of preadipocytes. We found that OSBPL2/ORP2 binds to β-catenin, a key effector in the Wnt signaling pathway that inhibits adipogenesis. This complex plays a role in regulating the protein level of β-catenin only in preadipocytes, not in mature adipocytes. Our data further indicated that OSBPL2/ORP2 mediates the transport of β-catenin into the nucleus and thus regulates target genes related to adipocyte differentiation. Deletion of OSBPL2/ORP2 markedly reduces β-catenin both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus, promotes preadipocytes maturation, and ultimately leads to obesity-related characteristics. Altogether, we provide novel insight into the function of OSBPL2/ORP2 in the developmental progression of preadipocytes and suggest OSBPL2/ORP2 may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity-related diseases.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) in addition to impacting the functions of membrane-limited organelles also have a role in the spatial and functional organization of cells, tissues and whole organisms. MCSs have been identified between all organelles and the identification of their molecular composition has progressed significantly in recent years. Equally important is how MCSs respond dynamically to physiological stimuli, how this is regulated, and the physiological roles of MCSs in tissues and at the organismal level, an area that still remains relatively unexplored. In the present review, we focus on the regulation of MCSs, considerations of their function at the organismal level, and how mutations of MCS components linked to genetic diseases might inform us about their physiological relevance.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein -related proteins (ORPs) form a large family of intracellular lipid binding/transfer proteins. A number of ORPs are implicated in inter-organelle lipid transfer over membrane contacts sites, their mode of action involving in several cases the transfer of two lipids in opposite directions, termed countercurrent lipid transfer. A unifying feature appears to be the capacity to bind phosphatidylinositol polyphosphates (PIPs). These lipids are in some cases transported by ORPs from one organelle to another to drive the transfer of another lipid against its concentration gradient, while they in other cases may act as allosteric regulators of ORPs, or an ORP may introduce a PIP to an enzyme for catalysis. Dysregulation of several ORP family members is implicated in cancers, ORP3, -4, -5 and -8 being thus far the most studied examples. The most likely mechanisms underlying their associations with malignant growth are (i) impacts on PIP-mediated signaling events resulting in altered Ca2+ homeostasis, bioenergetics, cell survival, proliferation, and migration, (ii) protein-protein interactions affecting the activity of signaling factors, and (iii) modification of cellular lipid transport in a way that facilitates the proliferation of malignant cells. In this review I discuss the existing functional evidence for the involvement of ORPs in cancerous growth, discuss the findings in the light of the putative mechanisms outlined above and the possibility of employing ORPs as targets of anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
The development of precision drugs for the selective treatment of ovarian cancer will require targeting proliferative factors selectively expressed in ovarian tumors or targeting unique physiological microenvironments specific for ovarian tumors. Here, we report that oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related protein 4 (ORP4) is a potential druggable precision target in ovarian cancer cells. ORP4 has limited expression in normal tissues and was recently recognized to be a cancer-specific driver of cellular proliferation, including in patient-isolated leukemias. We demonstrate that ORP4 is strongly expressed in a panel of ovarian cancer cell lines. The antiproliferative natural product compound OSW-1 targets ORP4 and OSBP. Our results demonstrate that the OSW-1 compound has high antiproliferative potency in both monolayer and three-dimensional ovarian cancer spheroid models, especially compared to the standard-of-care agents cisplatin and paclitaxel. OSW-1 compound treatment induces a loss of ORP4 expression after 48 h, which is coincident with the cytotoxic effects of OSW-1. The absence of extracellular lipids markedly potentiated the cytotoxicity of OSW-1, which was reversed by addition of extracellular free cholesterol. OSBP, but not ORP4, is reported to transport cholesterol and other lipids between organelles. Our results indicate that the targeting of ORP4 is responsible for the antiproliferative activity of the OSW-1 compound, but that in the absence of exogenously supplied cholesterol, which might be similar to the in vivo ovarian cancer microenvironment, possible OSW-1 targeting of OSBP further potentiates the anticancer activity of the compound. Overall, ORP4 and potentially OSBP are revealed as potential druggable targets for the development of novel treatments for ovarian cancer.

Abstract
The release of late spermatids from the seminiferous epithelium requires the internalization of intercellular junctions by Sertoli cell specific structures called "tubulobulbar complexes" (TBCs). These large, endocytic devices likely evolved from classic clathrin-mediated-endocytosis (CME) machinery, but have several important morphological differences to CME vesicles. Most notable among these differences is that extensive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane contact sites (MCSs) occur with TBCs and not with clathrin-coated pits. One of the well-established functions of ER MCSs is lipid exchange. Previously, we have established that the ORP9 lipid exchange protein is localized to the TBC-ER MCS; however, the function of ORP9 and lipid exchange at the sites is not known. Here we use an in vivo knockdown approach to probe function. The testes of Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with ORP9 targeted siRNA or non-targeted reagents, and the tissues examined by bright field, super-resolution stimulated emission depletion, and electron microscopy. The knockdown of ORP9 was achieved and maintained with daily injections of siRNA for 2-3 day intervals. Compared to controls, sections from ORP9 siRNA-injected testes had longer TBC tubes and fewer fused TBC bulbs. Late spermatids were also abnormally retained in the epithelium of knockdown tissue. These results suggest that ORP9 is necessary for normal TBC bulb vesiculation and fusion, most likely by changing the plasma membrane lipid profile of the TBC. These data also further support the conclusion that TBCs are part of the normal mechanism of sperm release.

Abstract
As an essential lipid, cholesterol is of great value in keeping cell homeostasis, being the precursor of bile acid and steroid hormones, and stabilizing membrane lipid rafts. As a kind of cholesterol metabolite produced by enzymatic or radical process, oxysterols have drawn much attention in the last decades. Among which, the role of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) in cholesterol and bile acid metabolism, antivirus process, and inflammatory response has been largely disclosed. This review is aimed at revealing these functions and underlying mechanisms of 25-HC.

Abstract
Viruses, including the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, redirect infected cell metabolism to their own purposes. After binding to its receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) on the cell surface, the SARS-CoV-2 is taken up by receptor-mediated endocytosis ending in the acidic endolysosomal compartment. The virus hijacks the endosomal machinery leading to fusion of viral and endosomal membranes and release of the viral RNA into the cytosol. This mini-review specifically highlights the membrane lipid organization of the endosomal system focusing on the unconventional and late endosome/lysosome-specific phospholipid, bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP). BMP is enriched in alveolar macrophages of lung, one of the target tissue of SARS-CoV-2. This review details the BMP structure, its unsaturated fatty acid composition and fusogenic properties that are essential for the highly dynamic formation of the intraluminal vesicles inside the endosomes. Interestingly, BMP is necessary for infection and replication of enveloped RNA virus such as SARS-CoV-1 and Dengue virus. We also emphasize the role of BMP in lipid sorting and degradation, especially cholesterol transport in cooperation with Niemann Pick type C proteins (NPC 1 and 2) and with some oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins (ORPs) as well as in sphingolipid degradation. Interestingly, numerous virus infection required NPC1 as well as ORPs along the endocytic pathway. Furthermore, BMP content is increased during pathological endosomal lipid accumulation in various lysosomal storage disorders. This is particularly important knowing the high percentage of patients with metabolic disorders among the SARS-CoV-2 infected patients presenting severe forms of COVID-19.

Abstract
The oxysterol-binding protein-related proteins (ORPs) have emerged as orchestrators of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and cholesterol trafficking to the plasma membrane (PM). In this scenario, recent studies raised the prospect of ORPs cooperative behavior in sustaining leukemia stem cells (LSCs) survival by remotely enhancing ER-mitochondria Ca2+ communication. At the apex of the signaling cascade, the aberrantly upregulated LSC-ORP4L fosters PM-PIP2 extraction & cleavage, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Ca2+ release and mitochondrial energetics. The theoretical ember of draining fuel from the chemoresistant LSCs by restraining endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondria Ca2+ fluxes in a lipid-contingent fashion ensues. In light of relevant literature, this review briefly and critically discusses some key molecular ins & outs underlying such therapeutic opportunity in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Abstract
Intermediates of both cholesterol synthesis and cholesterol metabolism can have diverse roles in the control of cellular processes that go beyond the control of cholesterol homeostasis. For example, oxidized forms of cholesterol, called oxysterols have functions ranging from the control of gene expression, signal transduction and cell migration. This is of particular interest in the context of immunology and immunometabolism where we now know that metabolic processes are key towards shaping the nature of immune responses. Equally, aberrant metabolic processes including altered cholesterol homeostasis contribute to immune dysregulation and dysfunction in pathological situations. This review article brings together our current understanding of how oxysterols affect the control of immune responses in diverse immunological settings.

Abstract
Background Liposarcoma was considered as a soft tissue kind of sarcoma with one-fifth in the sarcoma cases of adults. The aim of this study was to explore the role and the potential mechanisms of miR-195 in liposarcoma. Methods Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was conducted to measure the expression of microRNA-195 (miR-195) and oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) in liposarcoma. Cell proliferation was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). Cell migration was measured by wound healing and transwell assays. Cell cycle phases and apoptosis were examined using flow cytometry analysis. Caspase-3 activity was detected by commercial kit. Binding sites between miR-195 and OSBP were predicted through bioinformatics analysis and confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP). Western blot was used to analyze OSBP level. Xenograft tumor assays were performed to observe the effect of miR-195 overexpression on tumor growth in vivo. Results miR-195 expression was decreased, whereas OSBP was increased in liposarcoma tissues and cells. Besides, miR-195 upregulation suppressed the proliferative and migrative abilities and induced inhibition on cell growth and promotion on apoptosis in SW872 and 93T449 cells. Mechanically, miR-195 functioned as a suppressor by regulating OSBP expression. Furthermore, OSBP overexpression inverted the effects of miR-195 on cell growth, migration and apoptosis in SW872 and 93T449 cells. miR-195 overexpression also suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion miR-195 suppressed cell growth, migration and elevated cell apoptosis via OSBP in liposarcoma.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are important organelles for cell metabolism. Here, Du et al. show that phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate produced by PI4K2A can exist on LDs and is used/consumed by ORP5, which localizes to ER–LD contacts during the growth of LDs. Lipid droplets (LDs) are evolutionarily conserved organelles that play important roles in cellular metabolism. Each LD is enclosed by a monolayer of phospholipids, distinct from bilayer membranes. During LD biogenesis and growth, this monolayer of lipids expands by acquiring phospholipids from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through nonvesicular mechanisms. Here, in a mini-screen, we find that ORP5, an integral membrane protein of the ER, can localize to ER–LD contact sites upon oleate loading. ORP5 interacts with LDs through its ligand-binding domain, and ORP5 deficiency enhances neutral lipid synthesis and increases the size of LDs. Importantly, there is significantly more phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI(4)P) and less phosphatidylserine (PS) on LDs in ORP5-deficient cells than in normal cells. The increased presence of PI(4)P on LDs in ORP5-deficient cells requires phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase 2-α. Our results thus demonstrate the existence of PI(4)P on LDs and suggest that LD-associated PI(4)P may be primarily used by ORP5 to deliver PS to LDs.

Membrane contact sites between the cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the plasma membrane (PM) provide a direct conduit for small molecule transfer and signaling between the two largest membranes of the cell. Contact is established through ER integral membrane proteins that physically tether the two membranes together, though the general mechanism is remarkably non-specific given the diversity of different tethering proteins. Primary tethers including VAMP-associated proteins (VAPs), Anoctamin/TMEM16/Ist2p homologs, and extended synaptotagmins (E-Syts), are largely conserved in most eukaryotes and are both necessary and sufficient for establishing ER-PM association. In addition, other species-specific ER-PM tether proteins impart unique functional attributes to both membranes at the cell cortex. This review distils recent functional and structural findings about conserved and species-specific tethers that form ER-PM contact sites, with an emphasis on their roles in the coordinate regulation of lipid metabolism, cellular structure, and responses to membrane stress.

Abstract
Intracellular Salmonella use a type III secretion system (TTSS) to translocate effector proteins across the phagosome membrane and thus promote vacuole membrane tubulation, resulting in intracellular survival. This work demonstrates that the effector SseJ binds the eukaryotic lipid transporter oxysterol binding protein 1 (OSBP1). SseJ directs OSBP1 to the endosomal compartment in a manner dependent on the TTSS located on Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2). OSBP1 localization is mediated by both SseJ and another OSBP1-binding SPI2 translocated effector, the deubiquitinase SseL. Deletion of both SseJ and SseL reduced vacuolar integrity with increased bacteria released into the eukaryotic cytoplasm of epithelial cells, indicating that their combined activities are necessary for vacuole membrane stability. Cells knocked down for OSBP1 or deleted for the OSBP1-binding proteins VAPA/B also demonstrate loss of vacuole integrity, consistent with the hypothesis that OSBP1 recruitment is required for SPI2-mediated alterations that promote vacuolar integrity of salmonellae.

ORP5 and ORP8: Sterol Sensors and Phospholipid Transfer Proteins at Membrane Contact Sites? Biomolecules 2020; 10:biom10060928.

Abstract
Oxysterol binding related proteins 5 and 8 (ORP5 and ORP8) are two close homologs of the larger oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family of sterol sensors and lipid transfer proteins (LTP). Early studies indicated these transmembrane proteins, anchored to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), bound and sensed cholesterol and oxysterols. They were identified as important for diverse cellular functions including sterol homeostasis, vesicular trafficking, proliferation and migration. In addition, they were implicated in lipid-related diseases such as atherosclerosis and diabetes, but also cancer, although their mechanisms of action remained poorly understood. Then, alongside the increasing recognition that membrane contact sites (MCS) serve as hubs for non-vesicular lipid transfer, added to their structural similarity to other LTPs, came discoveries showing that ORP5 and 8 were in fact phospholipid transfer proteins that rather sense and exchange phosphatidylserine (PS) for phosphoinositides, including phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI(4)P) and potentially phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2). Evidence now points to their action at MCS between the ER and various organelles including the plasma membrane, lysosomes, mitochondria, and lipid droplets. Dissecting exactly how this unexpected phospholipid transfer function connects with sterol regulation in health or disease remains a challenge for future studies.

Abstract
Oxysterols are oxygenated forms of cholesterol generated via autooxidation by free radicals and ROS, or formed enzymically by a variety of enzymes such as those involved in the synthesis of bile acids. Although found at very low concentrations in vivo, these metabolites play key roles in health and disease, particularly in development and regulating immune cell responses, by binding to effector proteins such as LXRα, RORγ and Insig and directly or indirectly regulating transcriptional programmes that affect cell metabolism and function. In this review, we summarise the routes by which oxysterols can be generated and subsequently modified to other oxysterol metabolites and highlight their diverse and profound biological functions and opportunities to alter their levels using pharmacological approaches.

Abstract
The complex functions of cellular membranes, and thus overall cell physiology, depend on the distribution of crucial lipid species. Sac1 is an essential, conserved, ER-localized phosphatase whose substrate, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), coordinates secretory trafficking and plasma membrane function. PI4P from multiple pools is delivered to Sac1 by oxysterol-binding protein and related proteins in exchange for other lipids and sterols, which places Sac1 at the intersection of multiple lipid distribution pathways. However, much remains unknown about the roles of Sac1 in subcellular homeostasis and organismal development. Using a temperature-sensitive allele (Sac1ts), we show that Sac1 is required for structural integrity of the Drosophila retinal floor. The βps-integrin Myospheroid, which is necessary for basal cell adhesion, is mislocalized in Sac1ts retinas. In addition, the adhesion proteins Roughest and Kirre, which coordinate apical retinal cell patterning at an earlier stage, accumulate within Sac1ts retinal cells due to impaired endo-lysosomal degradation. Moreover, Sac1 is required for ER homeostasis in Drosophila retinal cells. Together, our data illustrate the importance of Sac1 in regulating multiple aspects of cellular homeostasis during tissue development.

Abstract
Phospholipids are synthesized primarily within the endoplasmic reticulum and are subsequently distributed to various subcellular membranes to maintain the unique lipid composition of specific organelles. As a result, in most cases, the steady-state localization of membrane phospholipids does not match their site of synthesis. This raises the question of how diverse lipid species reach their final membrane destinations and what molecular processes provide the energy to maintain the lipid gradients that exist between various membrane compartments. Recent studies have highlighted the role of inositol phospholipids in the nonvesicular transport of lipids at membrane contact sites. This review attempts to summarize our current understanding of these complex lipid dynamics and highlights their implications for defining future research directions.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins (ORPs) mediate non-vesicular lipid transfer between intracellular membranes. Phosphoinositide (PI) gradients play important roles in the ability of OSBP and some ORPs to transfer cholesterol and phosphatidylserine between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and other organelle membranes. Here, we show that plasma membrane (PM) association of ORP3 (also known as OSBPL3), a poorly characterized ORP family member, is triggered by protein kinase C (PKC) activation, especially when combined with Ca2+ increases, and is determined by both PI(4,5)P 2 and PI4P After activation, ORP3 efficiently extracts PI4P and to a lesser extent phosphatidic acid from the PM, and slightly increases PM cholesterol levels. Full activation of ORP3 resulted in decreased PM PI4P levels and inhibited Ca2+ entry via the store-operated Ca2+ entry pathway. The C-terminal region of ORP3 that follows the strictly defined lipid transfer domain was found to be critical for the proper localization and function of the protein.
