Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress leads to activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) that results in transient suppression of protein translation to allow recovery but leads to cell death when stress cannot be resolved. Central to initiation of the UPR is the activation of the ER transmembrane kinase protein kinase R (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK). Here we report that the thiol oxidoreductase ERp57 and protein disulfide isomerase-A1 (PDI), which belong to the same family of luminal ER oxidoreductases, have strikingly opposing roles in the regulation of PERK function. In HCT116 colon carcinoma cells, lentiviral depletion of ERp57 resulted in oxidation of PDI and activation of PERK, whereas depletion or chemical inhibition of PDI reduced PERK signaling and sensitized the cancer cells to hypoxia and ER stress. We conclude that oxidized PDI acts as a PERK activator, whereas ERp57 keeps PDI in a reduced state in the absence of ER stress. Thus, our study defines a new interface between metabolic redox signaling and PERK-dependent activation of the UPR and has the potential to influence future cancer therapies that target PERK signaling.

Abstract
A biochemical system and method have been developed to enable the quantitative measurement of cytoplasmic versus nuclear localization within cells in whole blood. Compared with the analyses of nuclear localization by western blot or fluorescence microscopy, this system saves a lot of time and resources by eliminating the necessity of purification and culturing steps, and generates data that are free from the errors and artifacts associated with using tumor cell lines or calculating nuclear signals from 2D images. This user‐friendly system enables the analysis of cell signaling within peripheral blood cells in their endogenous environment, including measuring the kinetics of nuclear translocation for transcription factors without requiring protein modifications. We first demonstrated the efficiency and specificity of this system for targeting nuclear epitopes, and verified the results by fluorescence microscopy. Next, the power of the technique to analyze LPS‐induced signaling in peripheral blood monocytes was demonstrated. Finally, both FoxP3 localization and IL‐2‐induced STAT5 signaling in regulatory T cells were analyzed. We conclude that this system can be a useful tool for enabling multidimensional molecular‐biological analyses of cell signaling within endogenous peripheral blood cells by conventional flow cytometry. © 2017 The Authors.

Abstract
In order to regulate the activity of P5, which is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family, we screened a chemical compound library for P5-specific inhibitors, and identified two candidate compounds (anacardic acid and NSC74859). Interestingly, anacardic acid inhibited the reductase activity of P5, but did not inhibit the activity of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase ERp57, or thioredoxin. NSC74859 inhibited all these enzymes. When we examined the effects of these compounds on the secretion of soluble major histocompatibility complex class-I-related gene A (MICA) from cancer cells, anacardic acid was found to decrease secretion. In addition, anacardic acid was found to reduce the concentration of glutathione up-regulated by the anticancer drug 17-demethoxygeldanamycin in cancer cells. These results suggest that anacardic acid can both inhibit P5 reductase activity and decrease the secretion of soluble MICA from cancer cells. It might be a novel and potent anticancer treatment by targeting P5 on the surface of cancer cells.

Abstract
The protein ERp57 (also known as PDIA3) is a widely distributed protein, mainly localized in the endoplasmic reticulum, where it acts as disulfide isomerase, oxidoreductase and chaperone, in concert with the lectins calreticulin (CRT) and calnexin. The ERp57/CRT complex has been detected on the cell surface and previous studies have suggested its involvement in programmed cell death. Although the ERp57-CRT complex has been characterized, little is known about its role in different cellular compartments as well as inhibitors of this interaction. We focused on the kinetic, extent and stability of the ERp57-CRT complex, using the surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, investigating the possible role as inhibitor of the antibiotic vancomycin. Equilibrium thermodynamic data suggested that vancomycin may hinder the interaction between the two proteins and could interfere with the ERp57 conformational changes that stabilize the complex. Furthermore, by means of confocal microscopy, we evaluated the effect of the in vivo administration of vancomycin on the ERp57/CRT complex on the surface of HeLa cells. The model presented here could be used for the search of other specific inhibitors/interactors of ERp57, which can be extremely helpful to understand the biological pathways where the protein is involved and to modulate its activity.

Abstract
In contrast to the fairly well-characterized mechanism of assembly of MHC class I-peptide complexes, the disassembly mechanism by which peptide-loaded MHC class I molecules are released from the peptide-loading complex and exit the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is poorly understood. Optimal peptide binding by MHC class I molecules is assumed to be sufficient for triggering exit of peptide-filled MHC class I molecules from the ER. We now show that protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) controls MHC class I disassembly by regulating dissociation of the tapasin-ERp57 disulfide conjugate. PDI acts as a peptide-dependent molecular switch; in the peptide-bound state, it binds to tapasin and ERp57 and induces dissociation of the tapasin-ERp57 conjugate. In the peptide-free state, PDI is incompetent to bind to tapasin or ERp57 and fails to dissociate the tapasin-ERp57 conjugates, resulting in ER retention of MHC class I molecules. Thus, our results indicate that even after optimal peptide loading, MHC class I disassembly does not occur by default but, rather, is a regulated process involving PDI-mediated interactions within the peptide-loading complex.

Abstract
Mechanisms regulating NADPH oxidase remain open and include the redox chaperone protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). Here, we further investigated PDI effects on vascular NADPH oxidase. VSMC transfected with wild-type PDI (wt-PDI) or PDI mutated in all four redox cysteines (mut-PDI) enhanced (2.5-fold) basal cellular ROS production and membrane NADPH oxidase activity, with 3-fold increase in Nox1, but not Nox4 mRNA. However, further ROS production, NADPH oxidase activity and Nox1 mRNA increase triggered by angiotensin-II (AngII) were totally lost with PDI overexpression, suggesting preemptive Nox1 activation in such cells. PDI overexpression increased Nox4 mRNA after AngII stimulus, although without parallel ROS increase. We also show that Nox inhibition by the nitric oxide donor GSNO is independent of PDI. PDI silencing decreased specifically Nox1 mRNA and protein, confirming that PDI may regulate Nox1 at transcriptional level in VSMC. Such data further strengthen the role of PDI as novel NADPH oxidase regulator.

Abstract
Vascular cell NADPH oxidase complexes are key sources of signaling reactive oxygen species (ROS) and contribute to disease pathophysiology. However, mechanisms that fine-tune oxidase-mediated ROS generation are incompletely understood. Besides known regulatory subunits, upstream mediators and scaffold platforms reportedly control and localize ROS generation. Some evidence suggest that thiol redox processes may coordinate oxidase regulation. We hypothesized that thiol oxidoreductases are involved in this process. We focused on protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), a ubiquitous dithiol disulfide oxidoreductase chaperone from the endoplasmic reticulum, given PDI's unique versatile role as oxidase/isomerase. PDI is also involved in protein traffic and can translocate to the cell surface, where it participates in cell adhesion and nitric oxide internalization. We recently provided evidence that PDI exerts functionally relevant regulation of NADPH oxidase activity in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells, in a thiol redox-dependent manner. Loss-of-function experiments indicate that PDI supports angiotensin II-mediated ROS generation and Akt phosphorylation. In addition, PDI displays confocal co-localization and co-immunoprecipitates with oxidase subunits, indicating close association. The mechanisms of such interaction are yet obscure, but may involve subunit assembling stabilization, assistance with traffic, and subunit disposal. These data may clarify an integrative view of oxidase activation in disease conditions, including stress responses.

Abstract
We have isolated a protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) from Oldenlandia affinis (OaPDI), a coffee family (Rubiaceae) plant that accumulates knotted circular proteins called cyclotides. The novel plant PDI appears to be involved in the biosynthesis of cyclotides, since it co-expresses and interacts with the cyclotide precursor protein Oak1. OaPDI exhibits similar isomerase activity but greater chaperone activity than human PDI. Since domain c of OaPDI is predicted to have a neutral pI, we conclude that this domain does not have to be acidic in nature for PDI to be a functional chaperone. Its redox potential of -157 +/- 4 mV supports a role as a functional oxidoreductase in the plant. The mechanism of enzyme-assisted folding of plant cyclotides was investigated by comparing the folding of kalata B1 derivatives in the presence and absence of OaPDI. OaPDI dramatically enhanced the correct oxidative folding of kalata B1 at physiological pH. A detailed investigation of folding intermediates suggested that disulfide isomerization is an important role of the new plant PDI and is an essential step in the production of insecticidal cyclotides. The nucleotide sequence(s) reported in this paper have been submitted to the GenBank/EBI Data Bank with accession number(s) 911777.

Abstract
The possible enzymatic activities of neuro- and cytoglobin as well as their potential function as substrates in enzymatic reactions were studied. Neuro- and cytoglobin are found to show no appreciable superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase activities. However, the internal disulfide bond (CD7-D5) of human neuroglobin can be reduced by thioredoxin reductase. Furthermore, our in vivo and in vitro studies show that Escherichia coli cells contain an enzymatic reducing system that keeps the heme iron atom of neuroglobin in the Fe(2+) form in the presence of dioxygen despite the high autoxidation rate of the molecule. This reducing system needs a low-molecular-weight compound as co-factor. In vitro tests show that both NADH and NADPH can play this role. Furthermore, the reducing system is not specific for neuroglobin but allows the reduction of the ferric forms of other globins such as cytoglobin and myoglobin. A similar reducing system is present in eukaryotic tissue protein extracts.

Abstract
We identified 1113 articles (103 reviews, 1010 primary research articles) published in 2005 that describe experiments performed using commercially available optical biosensors. While this number of publications is impressive, we find that the quality of the biosensor work in these articles is often pretty poor. It is a little disappointing that there appears to be only a small set of researchers who know how to properly perform, analyze, and present biosensor data. To help focus the field, we spotlight work published by 10 research groups that exemplify the quality of data one should expect to see from a biosensor experiment. Also, in an effort to raise awareness of the common problems in the biosensor field, we provide side-by-side examples of good and bad data sets from the 2005 literature.

Abstract
ER-60 is a PDI family protein that has protein thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase activity. It has been shown to associate with BiP in the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we analyzed the cooperation of ER-60 and BiP in the oxidative refolding of denatured proteins in vitro. ER-60 facilitated the refolding of 20 or 30% of denatured alpha-lactalbumin or ribonuclease B during incubation for 80 min, and these levels of nearly doubled on the addition of BiP to the reaction mixture. BiP alone could not refold denatured ribonuclease B, but could refold denatured alpha-lactalbumin a little. Enhancement of oxidative refolding of alpha-lactalbumin by ER-60 could be detected only when ER-60 was present from the start of refolding. On surface plasmon resonance analysis, ER-60 was shown to associate with BiP. The association was not influenced by ATP or ADP. Domains a and/or b' of ER-60 were implicated in the association with BiP.

Abstract
NAD(P)H oxidase, the main source of reactive oxygen species in vascular cells, is known to be regulated by redox processes and thiols. However, the nature of thiol-dependent regulation has not been established. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a dithiol/disulfide oxidoreductase chaperone of the thioredoxin superfamily involved in protein processing and translocation. We postulated that PDI regulates NAD(P)H oxidase activity of rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Western blotting confirmed robust PDI expression and shift to membrane fraction after incubation with angiotensin II (AII, 100 nm, 6 h). In VSMC membrane fraction, PDI antagonism with bacitracin, scrambled RNase, or neutralizing antibody led to 26-83% inhibition (p < 0.05) of oxidase activity. AII incubation led to significant increase in oxidase activity, accompanied by a 6-fold increase in PDI refolding isomerase activity. AII-induced NAD(P)H oxidase activation was inhibited by 57-71% with antisense oligonucleotide against PDI (PDIasODN). Dihydroethidium fluorescence showed decreased superoxide generation due to PDIasODN. Confocal microscopy showed co-localization between PDI and the oxidase subunits p22(phox), Nox1, and Nox4. Co-immunoprecipitation assays supported spatial association between PDI and oxidase subunits p22(phox), Nox1, and Nox4 in VSMCs. Moreover, in HEK293 cells transfected with green fluorescent protein constructs for Nox1, Nox2, and Nox4, each of these subunits co-immunoprecipitated with PDI. Akt phosphorylation, a known downstream pathway of AII-driven oxidase activation, was significantly reduced by PDIasODN. These results suggest that PDI closely associates with NAD(P)H oxidase and acts as a novel redox-sensitive regulatory protein of such enzyme complex, potentially affecting subunit traffic/assembling.

Abstract
We previously reported that the reductive activities of yeast protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) family proteins did not completely explain their contribution to the viability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Kimura, T., Hosoda, Y., Kitamura, Y., Nakamura, H., Horibe, T., and Kikuchi, M. (2004) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 320, 359-365). In this study, we examined oxidative refolding activities and found that Mpd1p, Mpd2, and Eug1p exhibit activities of 13.8, 16.0, and 2.16%, respectively, compared with Pdi1p and that activity for Eps1p is undetectable. In analyses of interactions between yeast PDI proteins and endoplasmic reticulum molecular chaperones, we found that Mpd1p alone does not have chaperone activity but that it interacts with and inhibits the chaperone activity of Cne1p, a homologue of mammalian calnexin, and that Cne1p increases the reductive activity of Mpd1p. These results suggest that the interface between Mpd1p and Cne1p is near the peptide-binding site of Cne1p. In addition, Eps1p interacts with Pdi1p, Eug1p, Mpd1p, and Kar2p with dissociation constants (KD) in the range of 10(-7) to 10(-6). Interestingly, co-chaperone activities were completely suppressed in Eps1p-Pdi1p and Eps1p-Mpd1p complexes, although only Eps1p and Pdi1p have chaperone activity. The in vivo consequences of these results are discussed.
