Screening of Candidate Effectors from Magnaporthe oryzae by In Vitro Secretomic Analysis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043189. [PMID: 36834598 PMCID: PMC9962664 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Magnaporthe oryzae is the causal agent of rice blast, one of the most serious diseases of rice worldwide. Secreted proteins play essential roles during a M. oryzae-rice interaction. Although much progress has been made in recent decades, it is still necessary to systematically explore M. oryzae-secreted proteins and to analyze their functions. This study employs a shotgun-based proteomic analysis to investigate the in vitro secretome of M. oryzae by spraying fungus conidia onto the PVDF membrane to mimic the early stages of infection, during which 3315 non-redundant secreted proteins were identified. Among these proteins, 9.6% (319) and 24.7% (818) are classified as classically or non-classically secreted proteins, while the remaining 1988 proteins (60.0%) are secreted through currently unknown secretory pathway. Functional characteristics analysis show that 257 (7.8%) and 90 (2.7%) secreted proteins are annotated as CAZymes and candidate effectors, respectively. Eighteen candidate effectors are selected for further experimental validation. All 18 genes encoding candidate effectors are significantly up- or down-regulated during the early infection process. Sixteen of the eighteen candidate effectors cause the suppression of BAX-mediated cell death in Nicotiana benthamiana by using an Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression assay, suggesting their involvement in pathogenicity related to secretion effectors. Our results provide high-quality experimental secretome data of M. oryzae and will expand our knowledge on the molecular mechanisms of M. oryzae pathogenesis.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
The present study aimed to explore the binding ability of acyl-CoA binding protein 2 to fatty acid acyl-CoA esters and its effect on Monascus pigment production in M. ruber CICC41233.
Methods
The Mracbp2 gene from M. ruber CICC41233 was cloned with a total DNA and cDNA as the templates through the polymerase chain reaction. The cDNA of the Mracbp2 gene fragment was ligated to expression vector pGEX-6P-1 to construct pGEX-MrACBP2, which was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 to obtain the fusion protein GST-MrACBP2 and then measure the binding ability of fatty acid acyl-CoA esters. Additionally, the DNA of the Mracbp2 gene fragment was ligated to expression vector pNeo0380 to construct pNeo0380-MrACBP2, which was homologously over-expressed in M. ruber CICC41233 to evaluate Monascus pigment production and fatty acid.
Results
The cloned Mracbp2 gene of the DNA and cDNA sequence was 1525 bp and 1329 bp in length, respectively. The microscale thermophoresis binding assay revealed that the purified GST-MrACBP2 had the highest affinity for palmitoyl-CoA (Kd =70.57 nM). Further, the Mracbp2 gene was homologously overexpressed in M. ruber CICC41233, and a positive transformant M. ruber ACBP-E was isolated. In the Monascus pigments fermentation, the expression level of the Mracbp2 gene was increased by 1.74-fold after 2 days and 2.38-fold after 6 days. The palmitic acid content and biomass in M. ruber ACBP2-E were significantly lower than that in M. ruber CICC41233 on 2 days and 6 days. However, compared with M. ruber CICC41233, the yields of total pigment, ethanol-soluble pigment, and water-soluble pigment in M. ruber ACBP2-E increased by 63.61%, 71.61%, and 29.70%, respectively.
Conclusions
The purified fusion protein GST-MrACBP2 exhibited the highest affinity for palmitoyl-CoA. The Mracbp2 gene was overexpressed in M. ruber CICC41233, which resulted in a decrease in palmitic acid and an increase in Monascus pigments. Overall, the effect of MrACBP2 on the synthesis of fatty acid and Monascus pigment was explored. This paper explored the effect of MrACBP2 on the fatty acid synthesis and the synthesis of Monascus pigment. The results indicated the regulation of fatty acid synthesis could affect Monascus pigment synthesis, providing a novel strategy for improving the yield of Monascus pigment.

Two typical acyl-CoA-binding proteins (ACBPs) are required for the asexual development and virulence of Phytophthora sojae. Fungal Genet Biol 2022; 161:103695.

Abstract
Being found in all eukaryotes investigated, acyl-CoA-binding proteins (ACBPs) participate in lipid metabolism via specifically binding acyl-CoA esters with high affinity. The structures and functions of ACBP family proteins have been extensively described in yeasts, fungi, plants and mammals, but not oomycetes. In the present study, seven ACBP genes named PsACBP1-7 were identified from the genome of Phytophthora sojae, an oomycete pathogen of soybean. CRISPR-Cas9 knockout mutants targeting PsACBP1 and PsACBP2 were created for phenotypic assays. PsACBP1 knockout led to defects in sporangia production and virulence. PsACBP2 knockout mutants exhibited impaired vegetative growth, zoospore production, cyst germination and virulence. Moreover, Nile red staining of PsACBP2 knockout and over-expression lines showed that PsACBP2 is involved in the formation of lipid bodies in P. sojae. Our results demonstrate that two ACBP genes are differently required for growth and development, and both are essential for virulence in P. sojae.

Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, membrane-surrounded organelles are orchestrally organized spatiotemporally under environmental situations. Among such organelles, vesicular transports and membrane contacts occur to communicate each other, so-called membrane traffic. Filamentous fungal cells are highly polarized and thus membrane traffic is developed to have versatile functions. Early endosome (EE) is an endocytic organelle that dynamically exhibits constant long-range motility through the hyphal cell, which is proven to have physiological roles, such as other organelle distribution and signal transduction. Since filamentous fungal cells are also considered as cell factories, to produce valuable proteins extracellularly, molecular mechanisms of secretory pathway including protein glycosylation have been well investigated. In this review, molecular and physiological aspects of membrane traffic especially related to EE dynamics and protein secretion in filamentous fungi are summarized, and perspectives for application are also described.

Abstract
The industrially important filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae, known as the yellow Koji mold and also designated the Japanese National fungus, has been investigated for understanding the intracellular membrane trafficking machinery due to the great ability of valuable enzyme production. The underlying molecular mechanisms of the secretory pathway delineate the main secretion route from the hyphal tip via the vesicle cluster Spitzenkörper, but also there is a growing body of evidence that septum-directed and unconventional secretion occurs in A. oryzae hyphal cells. Moreover, not only the secretory pathway but also the endocytic pathway is crucial for protein secretion, especially having a role in apical endocytic recycling. As a hallmark of multicellular filamentous fungal cells, endocytic organelles early endosome and vacuole are quite dynamic: the former exhibits constant long-range motility through the hyphal cells and the latter displays pleiomorphic structures in each hyphal region. These characteristics are thought to have physiological roles, such as supporting protein secretion and transporting nutrients. This review summarizes molecular and physiological mechanisms of membrane traffic, i.e., secretory and endocytic pathways, in A. oryzae and related filamentous fungi and describes the further potential for industrial applications.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells release the phylogenetically ancient protein acyl coenzyme A binding protein (ACBP, which in humans is encoded by the gene DBI, diazepam binding inhibitor) upon nutrient deprivation. Accordingly, mice that are starved for one to two days and humans that undergo voluntary fasting for one to three weeks manifest an increase in the plasma concentration of ACBP/DBI. Paradoxically, ACBP/DBI levels also increase in obese mice and humans. Since ACBP/DBI stimulates appetite, this latter finding may explain why obesity constitutes a self-perpetuating state. Here, we present a theoretical framework to embed these findings in the mechanisms of weight control, as well as a bioinformatics analysis showing that, irrespective of the human cell or tissue type, one single isoform of ACBP/DBI (ACBP1) is preponderant (~90% of all DBI transcripts, with the sole exception of the testis, where it is ~70%). Based on our knowledge, we conclude that ACBP1 is subjected to a biphasic transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation, explaining why obesity and fasting both are associated with increased circulating ACBP1 protein levels.

Abstract
Acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) is an important protein with a size of about 10 kDa. It has a high binding affinity for C12-C22 acyl-CoA esters and participates in lipid metabolism. ACBP and its family of proteins have been found in all eukaryotes and some prokaryotes. Studies have described the function and structure of ACBP family proteins in mammals (such as humans and mice), plants (such as Oryza sativa, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Hevea brasiliensis) and yeast. However, little information on the structure and function of the proteins in filamentous fungi has been reported. This article concentrates on recent advances in the research of the ACBP family proteins in plants and mammals, especially in yeast, filamentous fungi (such as Monascus ruber and Aspergillus oryzae), and fungal pathogens (Aspergillus flavus, Cryptococcus neoformans). Furthermore, we discuss some problems in the field, summarize the binding characteristics of the ACBP family proteins in filamentous fungi and yeast, and consider the future of ACBP development.

Abstract
Recently, we reported that, in mice, hunger causes the autophagy-dependent release of a protein called "acyl-CoA-binding protein" or "diazepam binding inhibitor" (ACBP/DBI) from cells, resulting in an increase in plasma ACBP concentrations. Administration of extra ACBP is orexigenic and obesogenic, while its neutralization is anorexigenic in mice, suggesting that ACBP is a major stimulator of appetite and lipo-anabolism. Accordingly, obese persons have higher circulating ACBP levels than lean individuals, and anorexia nervosa is associated with subnormal ACBP plasma concentrations. Here, we investigated whether ACBP might play a phylogenetically conserved role in appetite stimulation. We found that extracellular ACBP favors sporulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, knowing that sporulation is a strategy for yeast to seek new food sources. Moreover, in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, ACBP increased the ingestion of bacteria as well as the frequency pharyngeal pumping. These observations indicate that ACBP has a phylogenetically ancient role as a 'hunger factor' that favors food intake.

Abstract
Protein export in eukaryotes can either occur via the classical pathway traversing the endomembrane system or exploit alternative routes summarized as unconventional secretion. Besides multiple examples in higher eukaryotes, unconventional secretion has also been described for fungal proteins with diverse functions in important processes such as development or virulence. Accumulating molecular insights into the different export pathways suggest that unconventional secretion in fungal microorganisms does not follow a common scheme but has evolved multiple times independently. In this study, we review the most prominent examples with a focus on the chitinase Cts1 from the corn smut Ustilago maydis. Cts1 participates in cell separation during budding growth. Recent evidence indicates that the enzyme might be actively translocated into the fragmentation zone connecting dividing mother and daughter cells, where it supports cell division by the degradation of remnant chitin. Importantly, a functional fragmentation zone is prerequisite for Cts1 release. We summarize in detail what is currently known about this potential lock-type mechanism of Cts1 secretion and its connection to the complex regulation of fragmentation zone assembly and cell separation.

Abstract
The present study verified whether acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA)-binding protein (ACBP) affected the production of Monascus pigments (MPs) in Monascus ruber CICC41233 (MrACBP). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the cloned Mracbp gene, which encoded the MrACBP protein, exhibited the closest match (99% confidence level) to the gene from Penicilliopsis zonata. The MrACBP and maltose-binding protein (MBP) were simultaneously expressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta DE3 in the form of a fusion protein. The microscale thermophoresis binding assay revealed that the purified MBP-MrACBP exhibited a higher affinity for myristoyl-CoA (Kd = 88.16 nM) than for palmitoyl-CoA (Kd = 136.07 nM) and octanoyl-CoA (Kd = 270.9 nM). Further, the Mracbp gene was homologously overexpressed in M. ruber CICC41233, and a positive transformant M. ruber ACBP5 was isolated. The fatty acid myristic acid in M. ruber ACBP5 was lower than that in the parent strain M. ruber CICC41233. However, when compared with the parent strain, the production of total MPs, water-soluble pigment, and ethanol-soluble pigment in M. ruber ACBP5 increased by 11.67, 9.80, and 12.70%, respectively, after 6 days. The relative gene expression level, as determined by a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, of the key genes acbp, pks, mppr1, fasA, and fasB increased by 4.03-, 3.58-, 1.67-, 2.11-, and 2.62-fold after 6 days. These data demonstrate the binding preference of MrACBP for myristoyl-CoA, and its influence on MPs production.
