Abstract
Fructose bisphosphate aldolases (FBAs) catalyze the reversible cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate into dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. We analyzed two previously uncharacterized cytosolic Arabidopsis FBAs, AtFBA4 and AtFBA5. Based on a recent report, we examined the interaction of AtFBA4 with calmodulin (CaM)-like protein 11 (AtCML11). AtFBA4 did not bind AtCML11; however, we found that CaM bound AtFBA5 in a Ca2+-dependent manner with high specificity and affinity (KD ~ 190 nm) and enhanced its stability. AtFBA4 and AtFBA5 exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km and Vmax values of 180 μm and 4.9 U·mg-1 for AtFBA4, and 6.0 μm and 0.30 U·mg-1 for AtFBA5, respectively. The flavonoid morin inhibited both isozymes. Our study suggests that Ca2+ signaling and flavanols may influence plant glycolysis/gluconeogenesis.

A class I fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase is associated with salt stress tolerance in a halotolerant cyanobacterium Halothece sp. PCC 7418. Arch Biochem Biophys 2019; 672:108059. [PMID: 31356779 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2019.07.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2019] [Revised: 07/24/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) is a key metabolic enzyme, which is involved in glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and the Calvin cycle. The distinct physiological roles of FBAs in various organisms have been reported; however, in cyanobacteria, the functional characterization of FBAs and investigation of the intracellular dynamics of FBAs largely remains unknown. Here, we utilized a two-step chromatographic technique to identify a class I FBA (CI-FBA), which we named H2846. H2846 was induced by salt stress in the halotolerant cyanobacterium Halothece sp. PCC 7418 (hereafter referred to as Halothece 7418). Phylogenetic analysis showed that H2846-like CI-FBAs existed mainly in cyanobacterial species that inhabit hypersaline environments. Subcellular fractionation revealed that H2846 localized in the cytosolic and periplasmic spaces and size-exclusion chromatography suggested that H2846 formed a homohexamer. The CI-FBA activity of recombinant H2846-mediated cleavage of fructose bisphosphate (FBP) was characterized using a coupled enzymatic assay. This analysis allowed us to determine the Km and Vmax values of recombinant H2846, which were then compared to previously reported Km and Vmax values of several FBAs. Our data suggested that H2846 was likely responsible for the salt stress-induced CI-FBA activity from the total soluble protein extracts derived from Halothece 7418 cells. Moreover, heterologous expression of H2846 but not H2847, a class II FBA (CII-FBA), conferred salt stress tolerance to the salt-sensitive freshwater cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, which only contains the CII-FBA, S1443. S. elongatus PCC 7942 with a S1443 gene deletion was complemented by H2847 expression, but was not complemented by expression of H2846. Taken together, these results indicate the functional differences between two distinct sets of FBAs in cyanobacteria. H2846 is an active CI-FBA that contributes to the mechanism of salt stress tolerance in Halothece 7418.

Deletion of transketolase triggers a stringent metabolic response in promastigotes and loss of virulence in amastigotes of Leishmania mexicana. PLoS Pathog 2018; 14:e1006953. [PMID: 29554142 PMCID: PMC5882173 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1006953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2016] [Revised: 04/03/2018] [Accepted: 02/28/2018] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Transketolase (TKT) is part of the non-oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). Here we describe the impact of removing this enzyme from the pathogenic protozoan Leishmania mexicana. Whereas the deletion had no obvious effect on cultured promastigote forms of the parasite, the Δtkt cells were not virulent in mice. Δtkt promastigotes were more susceptible to oxidative stress and various leishmanicidal drugs than wild-type, and metabolomics analysis revealed profound changes to metabolism in these cells. In addition to changes consistent with those directly related to the role of TKT in the PPP, central carbon metabolism was substantially decreased, the cells consumed significantly less glucose, flux through glycolysis diminished, and production of the main end products of metabolism was decreased. Only minor changes in RNA abundance from genes encoding enzymes in central carbon metabolism, however, were detected although fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase activity was decreased two-fold in the knock-out cell line. We also showed that the dual localisation of TKT between cytosol and glycosomes is determined by the C-terminus of the enzyme and by engineering different variants of the enzyme we could alter its sub-cellular localisation. However, no effect on the overall flux of glucose was noted irrespective of whether the enzyme was found uniquely in either compartment, or in both. Leishmania parasites endanger over 1 billion people worldwide, infecting 300,000 people and causing 20,000 deaths annually. In this study, we scrutinized metabolism in Leishmania mexicana after deletion of the gene encoding transketolase (TKT), an enzyme involved in sugar metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway which plays key roles in creating ribose 5-phosphate for nucleotide synthesis and also defence against oxidative stress. The insect stage of the parasite, grown in culture medium, did not suffer from any obvious growth defect after the gene was deleted. However, its metabolism changed dramatically, with metabolomics indicating profound changes to flux through the pentose phosphate pathway: decreased glucose consumption, and generally enhanced efficiency in using metabolic substrates with reduced secretion of partially oxidised end products of metabolism. This ‘stringent’ metabolism is reminiscent of the mammalian stage parasites. The cells were also more sensitive to oxidative stress inducing agents and leishmanicidal drugs. Crucially, mice inoculated with the TKT knock-out parasites did not develop an infection pointing to the enzyme playing a key role in allowing the parasites to remain viable in the host, indicating that TKT may be considered a useful target for development of new drugs against leishmaniasis.

Abstract
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is one of the most important crops of Thailand. Its storage roots are used as food, feed, starch production, and be the important source for biofuel and biodegradable plastic production. Despite the importance of cassava storage roots, little is known about the mechanisms involved in their formation. This present study has focused on comparison of the expression profiles of cassava root proteome at various developmental stages using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and LC-MS/MS. Based on an anatomical study using Toluidine Blue, the secondary growth was confirmed to be essential during the development of cassava storage root. To investigate biochemical processes occurring during storage root maturation, soluble and membrane proteins were isolated from storage roots harvested from 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month-old cassava plants. The proteins with differential expression pattern were analysed and identified to be associated with 8 functional groups: protein folding and degradation, energy, metabolism, secondary metabolism, stress response, transport facilitation, cytoskeleton, and unclassified function. The expression profiling of membrane proteins revealed the proteins involved in protein folding and degradation, energy, and cell structure were highly expressed during early stages of development. Integration of these data along with the information available in genome and transcriptome databases is critical to expand knowledge obtained solely from the field of proteomics. Possible role of identified proteins were discussed in relation with the activities during storage root maturation in cassava.

Abstract
Despite the increasing occurrence of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation, its molecular mechanism is poorly documented in higher plants compared to other environmental stress. In present study, the influence of supplemental UV-B radiation on photosynthetic performance and antioxidant enzymes in rice (Oryza sativa L.) was investigated. Supplemental UV-B radiation reduced net photosynthetic rate in rice flag leaves during senescence stage. By means of the JIP-test, it was found that the potential of processing light energy through the photosynthetic machinery was slightly inhibited by the increased thermal dissipation. Furthermore, 18 thylakoid membrane protein spots were differentially expressed (5-fold or greater variation compared to the control) in supplemental UV-B-treated rice. These identified proteins were involved in various cellular responses and metabolic processes including photosynthesis, stress defense, Calvin cycle, and others of unknown functions. Taken together, these results suggested that physiological changes that resulted from supplemental UV-B radiation were linked to the light reaction, carbon metabolism, and antioxidant enzymes in rice leaves during senescence stage.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that glucose disposal is increased in the Fyn knockout (FynKO) mice due to increased insulin sensitivity. FynKO mice also display fasting hypoglycaemia despite decreased insulin levels, which suggested that hepatic glucose production was unable to compensate for the increased basal glucose utilization. The present study investigates the basis for the reduction in plasma glucose levels and the reduced ability for the liver to produce glucose in response to gluconeogenic substrates. FynKO mice had a 5-fold reduction in phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene and protein expression and a marked reduction in pyruvate, pyruvate/lactate-stimulated glucose output. Remarkably, de novo glucose production was also blunted using gluconeogenic substrates that bypass the PEPCK step. Impaired conversion of glycerol to glucose was observed in both glycerol tolerance test and determination of the conversion of (13)C-glycerol to glucose in the fasted state. α-glycerol phosphate levels were reduced but glycerol kinase protein expression levels were not changed. Fructose-driven glucose production was also diminished without alteration of fructokinase expression levels. The normal levels of dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate observed in the FynKO liver extracts suggested normal triose kinase function. Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (aldolase) mRNA or protein levels were normal in the Fyn-deficient livers, however, there was a large reduction in liver fructose-6-phosphate (30-fold) and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (7-fold) levels as well as a reduction in glucose-6-phosphate (2-fold) levels. These data suggest a mechanistic defect in the allosteric regulation of aldolase activity.

Abstract
Young poplar plants were exposed to different heat regimes, a rapid heat constraint at 42°C (heat shock HS) alone or preceded by a stepwise increase in temperature (heat gradient HG). Proteomics analyses were carried out on both leaf and cambial tissues. The responses of both tissues were compared and linked to morphological and physiological observations. Both heat treatments negatively affected the photosynthetic rate while increasing the stomatal conductance. In the leaf, the HS impacted some photosynthetic proteins, and particularly induced an increase in abundance of proteins of the oxygen evolving complexes. On the other hand, the HG reduced carbohydrate metabolism and induced mainly an increase in germin-like proteins. In the cambial zone, the HS caused a decrease in sucrose synthase content and in enzymes related to protein synthesis. The main effect of HG was the accumulation of thaumatin-like proteins as well as an increase in the abundance of proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Further, both tissues underwent changes in the content of heat shock proteins, but more importantly, of peroxiredoxins. The results show more sustainable changes in leaf and cambial proteomes in response to HS compared to HG.

Abstract
Plants reconfigure their metabolic network under stress conditions. Changes of mitochondrial metabolism such as tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and amino acid metabolism are reported in Arabidopsis roots but the exact molecular basis underlying this remains unknown. We here hypothesise the reassembly of enzyme protein complexes to be a molecular mechanism for metabolic regulation and tried in the present study to find out mitochondrial protein complexes which change their composition under oxidative stress by the combinatorial approach of proteomics and metabolomics. Arabidopsis seedlings were treated with menadione to induce oxidative stress. The inhibition of several TCA cycle enzymes and the oxidised NADPH pool indicated the onset of oxidative stress. In blue native/SDS-PAGE analysis of mitochondrial protein complexes the intensities of 18 spots increased and those of 13 spots decreased in menadione treated samples suggesting these proteins associate with, or dissociate from, protein complexes. Some spots were identified as metabolic enzymes related to central carbon metabolism such as malic enzyme, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, monodehydroascorbate reductase and alanine aminotransferase. The change in spot intensity was not directly correlated to the total enzyme activity and mRNA level of the corresponding enzyme but closely related to the metabolite profile, suggesting the metabolism is regulated under oxidative stress at a higher level than translation. These results are somewhat preliminary but suggest the regulation of the TCA cycle, glycolysis, ascorbate and amino acid metabolism by reassembly of plant enzyme complexes.
