Aleshin VA, Kaehne T, Maslova MV, Graf AV, Bunik VI. Posttranslational Acylations of the Rat Brain Transketolase Discriminate the Enzyme Responses to Inhibitors of ThDP-Dependent Enzymes or Thiamine Transport. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:917. [PMID: 38255994 PMCID: PMC10815635 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Transketolase (TKT) is an essential thiamine diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme of the non-oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway, with the glucose-6P flux through the pathway regulated in various medically important conditions. Here, we characterize the brain TKT regulation by acylation in rats with perturbed thiamine-dependent metabolism, known to occur in neurodegenerative diseases. The perturbations are modeled by the administration of oxythiamine inhibiting ThDP-dependent enzymes in vivo or by reduced thiamine availability in the presence of metformin and amprolium, inhibiting intracellular thiamine transporters. Compared to control rats, chronic administration of oxythiamine does not significantly change the modification level of the two detected TKT acetylation sites (K6 and K102) but doubles malonylation of TKT K499, concomitantly decreasing 1.7-fold the level of demalonylase sirtuin 5. The inhibitors of thiamine transporters do not change average levels of TKT acylation or sirtuin 5. TKT structures indicate that the acylated residues are distant from the active sites. The acylations-perturbed electrostatic interactions may be involved in conformational shifts and/or the formation of TKT complexes with other proteins or nucleic acids. Acetylation of K102 may affect the active site entrance/exit and subunit interactions. Correlation analysis reveals that the action of oxythiamine is characterized by significant negative correlations of K499 malonylation or K6 acetylation with TKT activity, not observed upon the action of the inhibitors of thiamine transport. However, the transport inhibitors induce significant negative correlations between the TKT activity and K102 acetylation or TKT expression, absent in the oxythiamine group. Thus, perturbations in the ThDP-dependent catalysis or thiamine transport manifest in the insult-specific patterns of the brain TKT malonylation and acetylations.

Abstract
Thiamine diphosphate (ThDP), the bioactive form of vitamin B1, is an essential coenzyme needed for processes of cellular metabolism in all organisms. ThDP-dependent enzymes all require ThDP as a coenzyme for catalytic activity, although individual enzymes vary significantly in substrate preferences and biochemical reactions. A popular way to study the role of these enzymes through chemical inhibition is to use thiamine/ThDP analogues, which typically feature a neutral aromatic ring in place of the positively charged thiazolium ring of ThDP. While ThDP analogues have aided work in understanding the structural and mechanistic aspects of the enzyme family, at least two key questions regarding the ligand design strategy remain unresolved: 1) which is the best aromatic ring? and 2) how can we achieve selectivity towards a given ThDP-dependent enzyme? In this work, we synthesise derivatives of these analogues covering all central aromatic rings used in the past decade and make a head-to-head comparison of all the compounds as inhibitors of several ThDP-dependent enzymes. Thus, we establish the relationship between the nature of the central ring and the inhibitory profile of these ThDP-competitive enzyme inhibitors. We also demonstrate that introducing a C2-substituent onto the central ring to explore the unique substrate-binding pocket can further improve both potency and selectivity.

Abstract
Mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) is essential for brain glucose and neurotransmitter metabolism, which is dysregulated in many pathologies. Using specific inhibitors of PDHC in vivo, we determine biochemical and physiological responses to PDHC dysfunction. Dose dependence of the responses to membrane-permeable dimethyl acetylphosphonate (AcPMe2) is non-monotonous. Primary decreases in glutathione and its redox potential, methionine, and ethanolamine are alleviated with increasing PDHC inhibition, the alleviation accompanied by physiological changes. A comparison of 39 brain biochemical parameters after administration of four phosphinate and phosphonate analogs of pyruvate at a fixed dose of 0.1 mmol/kg reveals no primary, but secondary changes, such as activation of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDHC) and decreased levels of glutamate, isoleucine and leucine. The accompanying decreases in freezing time are most pronounced after administration of methyl acetylphosphinate and dimethyl acetylphosphonate. The PDHC inhibitors do not significantly change the levels of PDHA1 expression and phosphorylation, sirtuin 3 and total protein acetylation, but increase total protein succinylation and glutarylation, affecting sirtuin 5 expression. Thus, decreased production of the tricarboxylic acid cycle substrate acetyl-CoA by inhibited PDHC is compensated by increased degradation of amino acids through the activated OGDHC, increasing total protein succinylation/glutarylation. Simultaneously, parasympathetic activity and anxiety indicators decrease.

Abstract
Heat stress is an important issue, and the addition of fiber to the diet is an option in modifying intestinal health. This study evaluated the effect of acid detergent fiber (ADF) levels on reproductive performance, intestinal integrity, and metabolism of gestating sows, and its carry-over effect on the lactation period during heat stress. The diets included 4.3% (Low fiber; LF), 5.4% (Medium fiber; MF), and 6.5% (High fiber; HF) ADF. Sows fed the HF diet showed a lower respiratory rate, hair cortisol concentration, and farrowing duration compared with the LF treatment. The HF diet increased the pyruvate, citrate cycle, glyoxylate, dicarboxylate, and thiamine metabolism compared with the MF. The concentration of acetate and total short-chain fatty acids were increased in the sows fed the HF diet. The gene expression of glucose transporter 3 and glucose transporter 4 was increased in the HF treatment. The gene expression of heat shock protein 70 was decreased in the HF treatment. The HF diet during gestation increased feed intake, constipation index, piglet weight, and litter weight compared with the LF. Sows in the LF treatment showed the greatest digestibility of crude protein and the lowest digestibility of ADF. In conclusion, a 6.5% ADF level is recommended for gestating sows during heat stress.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:8006.

Abstract
Coupling glycolysis and mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex (PDHC) is highly responsive to cellular demands through multiple mechanisms, including PDH phosphorylation. PDHC also produces acetyl-CoA for protein acetylation involved in circadian regulation of metabolism. Thiamine (vitamin B1) diphosphate (ThDP) is known to activate PDH as both coenzyme and inhibitor of the PDH inactivating kinases. Molecular mechanisms integrating the function of thiamine-dependent PDHC into general redox metabolism, underlie physiological fitness of a cell or an organism. Here, we characterize the daytime- and thiamine-dependent changes in the rat brain PDHC function, expression and phosphorylation, assessing their impact on protein acetylation and metabolic regulation. Morning administration of thiamine significantly downregulates both the PDH phosphorylation at Ser293 and SIRT3 protein level, the effects not observed upon the evening administration. This action of thiamine nullifies the daytime-dependent changes in the brain PDHC activity and mitochondrial acetylation, inducing diurnal difference in the cytosolic acetylation and acetylation of total brain proteins. Screening the daytime dependence of central metabolic enzymes and proteins of thiol/disulfide metabolism reveals that thiamine also cancels daily changes in the malate dehydrogenase activity, opposite to those of the PDHC activity. Correlation analysis indicates that thiamine abrogates the strong positive correlation between the total acetylation of the brain proteins and PDHC function. Simultaneously, thiamine heightens interplay between the expression of PDHC components and total acetylation or SIRT2 protein level. These thiamine effects on the brain acetylation system change metabolic impact of acetylation. The changes are exemplified by the thiamine enhancement of the SIRT2 correlations with metabolic enzymes and proteins of thiol-disulfide metabolism. Thus, we show the daytime- and thiamine-dependent changes in the function and phosphorylation of brain PDHC, contributing to regulation of the brain acetylation system and redox metabolism. The daytime-dependent action of thiamine on PDHC and SIRT3 may be of therapeutic significance in correcting perturbed diurnal regulation.

Abstract
Our study aims at developing knowledge-based strategies minimizing chronic changes in the brain after severe spinal cord injury (SCI). The SCI-induced long-term metabolic alterations and their reactivity to treatments shortly after the injury are characterized in rats. Eight weeks after severe SCI, significant mitochondrial lesions outside the injured area are demonstrated in the spinal cord and cerebral cortex. Among the six tested enzymes essential for the TCA cycle and amino acid metabolism, mitochondrial 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDHC) is the most affected one. SCI downregulates this complex by 90% in the spinal cord and 30% in the cerebral cortex. This is associated with the tissue-specific changes in other enzymes of the OGDHC network. Single administrations of a pro-activator (thiamine, or vitamin B1, 1.2 mmol/kg) or a synthetic pro-inhibitor (triethyl glutaryl phosphonate, TEGP, 0.02 mmol/kg) of OGDHC within 15–20 h after SCI are tested as protective strategies. The biochemical and physiological assessments 8 weeks after SCI reveal that thiamine, but not TEGP, alleviates the SCI-induced perturbations in the rat brain metabolism, accompanied by the decreased expression of (acetyl)p53, increased expression of sirtuin 5 and an 18% improvement in the locomotor recovery. Treatment of the non-operated rats with the OGDHC pro-inhibitor TEGP increases the p53 acetylation in the brain, approaching the brain metabolic profiles to those after SCI. Our data testify to an important contribution of the OGDHC regulation to the chronic consequences of SCI and their control by p53 and sirtuin 5.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases are accompanied by changes in the activity of thiamine mono- and diphosphate phosphatases, but molecular identification of these mammalian enzymes is incomplete. In this work, the protein fraction of bovine brain synaptosomes displaying phosphatase activity toward thiamine derivatives was subjected to affinity chromatography on thiamine-Sepharose. Protein fractions eluted with thiamine (pH 7.4 or 5.6), NaCl, and urea were assayed for the phosphatase activity against thiamine monophosphate (ThMP), thiamine diphosphate (ThDP), and structurally similar purine nucleotides. Proteins in each fraction were identified by mass spectrometry using the SwissProt database for all organisms because of insufficient annotation of the bovine genome. Peptides of two annotated bacterial phosphatases, alkaline phosphatase L from the DING protein family and exopolyphosphatase, were identified in the acidic thiamine eluate. The abundance of peptides of alkaline phosphatase L and exopolyphosphatase in the eluted fractions correlated with ThMPase and ThDPase activities, respectively. The elution profiles of the ThMPase and ThDPase activities differed from the elution profiles of nucleotide phosphatases, thus indicating the specificity of these enzymes toward thiamine derivatives. The search for mammalian DING phosphatases in the eluates from thiamine-Sepharose revealed X-DING-CD4, mostly eluted by the acidic thiamine solution (pH 5.6). The identified exopolyphosphatase demonstrated structural similarity with apyrases possessing the ThDPase activity. The obtained results demonstrate that mammalian DING proteins and apyrases exhibit ThMPase and ThDPase activity, respectively.

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) is essential for the brain function and highly regulated, according to its role in metabolism of the major excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate. Here we show a diurnal pattern of the GDH acetylation in rat brain, associated with specific regulation of GDH function. Mornings the acetylation levels of K84 (near the ADP site), K187 (near the active site), and K503 (GTP-binding) are highly correlated. Evenings the acetylation levels of K187 and K503 decrease, and the correlations disappear. These daily variations in the acetylation adjust the GDH responses to the enzyme regulators. The adjustment is changed when the acetylation of K187 and K503 shows no diurnal variations, as in the rats after a high dose of thiamine. The regulation of GDH function by acetylation is confirmed in a model system, where incubation of the rat brain GDH with acetyl-CoA changes the enzyme responses to GTP and ADP, decreasing the activity at subsaturating concentrations of substrates. Thus, the GDH acetylation may support cerebral homeostasis, stabilizing the enzyme function during diurnal oscillations of the brain metabolome. Daytime and thiamine interact upon the (de)acetylation of GDH in vitro. Evenings the acetylation of GDH from control animals increases both IC50 GTP and EC50 ADP . Mornings the acetylation of GDH from thiamine-treated animals increases the enzyme IC50 GTP . Molecular mechanisms of the GDH regulation by acetylation of specific residues are proposed. For the first time, diurnal and thiamine-dependent changes in the allosteric regulation of the brain GDH due to the enzyme acetylation are shown.

Abstract
Thiamine (vitamin B1) is a precursor of the well-known coenzyme of central metabolic pathways thiamine diphosphate (ThDP). Highly intense glucose oxidation in the brain requires ThDP-dependent enzymes, which determines the critical significance of thiamine for neuronal functions. However, thiamine can also act through the non-coenzyme mechanisms. The well-known facilitation of acetylcholinergic neurotransmission upon the thiamine and acetylcholine co-release into the synaptic cleft has been supported by the discovery of thiamine triphosphate (ThTP)-dependent phosphorylation of the acetylcholine receptor-associated protein rapsyn, and thiamine interaction with the TAS2R1 receptor, resulting in the activation of synaptic ion currents. The non-coenzyme regulatory binding of thiamine compounds has been demonstrated for the transcriptional regulator p53, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, prion protein PRNP, and a number of key metabolic enzymes that do not use ThDP as a coenzyme. The accumulated data indicate that the molecular mechanisms of the neurotropic action of thiamine are far broader than it has been originally believed, and closely linked to the metabolism of thiamine and its derivatives in animals. The significance of this topic has been illustrated by the recently established competition between thiamine and the antidiabetic drug metformin for common transporters, which can be the reason for the thiamine deficiency underlying metformin side effects. Here, we also discuss the medical implications of the research on thiamine, including the role of thiaminases in thiamine reutilization and biosynthesis of thiamine antagonists; molecular mechanisms of action of natural and synthetic thiamine antagonists, and biotransformation of pharmacological forms of thiamine. Given the wide medical application of thiamine and its synthetic forms, these aspects are of high importance for medicine and pharmacology, including the therapy of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE This article develops a holistic view on production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes. Recent Advances: Catalytic and structural properties of the complexes and their components evolved to minimize damaging effects of side reactions, including ROS generation, simultaneously exploiting the reactions for homeostatic signaling. CRITICAL ISSUES Side reactions of the complexes, characterized in vitro, are analyzed in view of protein interactions and conditions in vivo. Quantitative data support prevalence of the forward 2-oxo acid oxidation over the backward NADH oxidation in feeding physiologically significant ROS production by the complexes. Special focus on interactions between the active sites within 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes highlights the central relevance of the complex-bound thiyl radicals in regulation of and signaling by complex-generated ROS. The thiyl radicals arise when dihydrolipoyl residues of the complexes regenerate FADH2 from the flavin semiquinone coproduced with superoxide anion radical in 1e- oxidation of FADH2 by molecular oxygen. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Interaction of 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes with thioredoxins (TRXs), peroxiredoxins, and glutaredoxins mediates scavenging of the thiyl radicals and ROS generated by the complexes, underlying signaling of disproportional availability of 2-oxo acids, CoA, and NAD+ in key metabolic branch points through thiol/disulfide exchange and medically important hypoxia-inducible factor, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, and sirtuins. High reactivity of the coproduced ROS and thiyl radicals to iron/sulfur clusters and nitric oxide, peroxynitrite reductase activity of peroxiredoxins and transnitrosylating function of thioredoxin, implicate the side reactions of 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes in nitric oxide-dependent signaling and damage.
