The Importance of Protein Phosphorylation for Signaling and Metabolism in Response to Diel Light Cycling and Nutrient Availability in a Marine Diatom. BIOLOGY 2020; 9:biology9070155. [PMID: 32640597 PMCID: PMC7408324 DOI: 10.3390/biology9070155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2020] [Revised: 07/01/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
Diatoms are major contributors to global primary production and their populations in the modern oceans are affected by availability of iron, nitrogen, phosphate, silica, and other trace metals, vitamins, and infochemicals. However, little is known about the role of phosphorylation in diatoms and its role in regulation and signaling. We report a total of 2759 phosphorylation sites on 1502 proteins detected in Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Conditionally phosphorylated peptides were detected at low iron (n = 108), during the diel cycle (n = 149), and due to nitrogen availability (n = 137). Through a multi-omic comparison of transcript, protein, phosphorylation, and protein homology, we identify numerous proteins and key cellular processes that are likely under control of phospho-regulation. We show that phosphorylation regulates: (1) carbon retrenchment and reallocation during growth under low iron, (2) carbon flux towards lipid biosynthesis after the lights turn on, (3) coordination of transcription and translation over the diel cycle and (4) in response to nitrogen depletion. We also uncover phosphorylation sites for proteins that play major roles in diatom Fe sensing and utilization, including flavodoxin and phytotransferrin (ISIP2A), as well as identify phospho-regulated stress proteins and kinases. These findings provide much needed insight into the roles of protein phosphorylation in diel cycling and nutrient sensing in diatoms.

Changes of DNA topology affect the global transcription landscape and allow rapid growth of a Bacillus subtilis mutant lacking carbon catabolite repression. Metab Eng 2017; 45:171-179. [PMID: 29242163 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymben.2017.12.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2017] [Revised: 12/04/2017] [Accepted: 12/06/2017] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Bacteria are able to prioritize preferred carbon sources from complex mixtures. This is achieved by the regulatory phenomenon of carbon catabolite repression. To allow the simultaneous utilization of multiple carbon sources and to prevent the time-consuming adaptation to each individual nutrient in biotechnological applications, mutants lacking carbon catabolite repression can be used. However, such mutants often exhibit pleiotropic growth defects. We have isolated and characterized mutations that overcome the growth defect of Bacillus subtilis ccpA mutants lacking the major regulator of catabolite repression, in particular their glutamate auxotrophy. Here we show, that distinct mutations affecting the essential DNA topoisomerase I (TopA) cause glutamate prototrophy of the ccpA mutant. These suppressing variants of the TopA enzyme exhibit increased activity resulting in enhanced relaxation of the DNA. Reduced DNA supercoiling results in enhanced expression of the gltAB operon encoding the biosynthetic glutamate synthase. This is achieved by a significant re-organization of the global transcription network accompanied by re-routing of metabolism, which results in inactivation of the glutamate dehydrogenase. Our results provide a link between DNA topology, the global transcriptional network, and glutamate metabolism and suggest that specific topA mutants may be well suited for biotechnological purposes.

Multiple Forms of Glutamate Dehydrogenase in Animals: Structural Determinants and Physiological Implications. BIOLOGY 2016; 5:biology5040053. [PMID: 27983623 PMCID: PMC5192433 DOI: 10.3390/biology5040053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2016] [Revised: 11/26/2016] [Accepted: 12/07/2016] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) of animal cells is usually considered to be a mitochondrial enzyme. However, this enzyme has recently been reported to be also present in nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes. These extramitochondrial localizations are associated with moonlighting functions of GDH, which include acting as a serine protease or an ATP-dependent tubulin-binding protein. Here, we review the published data on kinetics and localization of multiple forms of animal GDH taking into account the splice variants, post-translational modifications and GDH isoenzymes, found in humans and apes. The kinetic properties of human GLUD1 and GLUD2 isoenzymes are shown to be similar to those published for GDH1 and GDH2 from bovine brain. Increased functional diversity and specific regulation of GDH isoforms due to alternative splicing and post-translational modifications are also considered. In particular, these structural differences may affect the well-known regulation of GDH by nucleotides which is related to recent identification of thiamine derivatives as novel GDH modulators. The thiamine-dependent regulation of GDH is in good agreement with the fact that the non-coenzyme forms of thiamine, i.e., thiamine triphosphate and its adenylated form are generated in response to amino acid and carbon starvation.

Insights into the in vivo regulation of glutamate dehydrogenase from the foot muscle of an estivating land snail. Enzyme Res 2012; 2012:317314.

Abstract
Land snails, Otala lactea, survive in seasonally hot and dry environments by entering a state of aerobic torpor called estivation. During estivation, snails must prevent excessive dehydration and reorganize metabolic fuel use so as to endure prolonged periods without food. Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) was hypothesized to play a key role during estivation as it shuttles amino acid carbon skeletons into the Krebs cycle for energy production and is very important to urea biosynthesis (a key molecule used for water retention). Analysis of purified foot muscle GDH from control and estivating conditions revealed that estivated GDH was approximately 3-fold more active in catalyzing glutamate deamination as compared to control. This kinetic difference appears to be regulated by reversible protein phosphorylation, as indicated by ProQ Diamond phosphoprotein staining and incubations that stimulate endogenous protein kinases and phosphatases. The increased activity of the high-phosphate form of GDH seen in the estivating land snail foot muscle correlates well with the increased use of amino acids for energy and increased synthesis of urea for water retention during prolonged estivation.

Regulation of liver glutamate dehydrogenase by reversible phosphorylation in a hibernating mammal. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2010; 157:310-6.

Abstract
Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) is a key enzyme that links amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism in cells. Regulation is likely most important when organisms are confronted with extreme stresses such as the low environmental temperatures and lack of food associated with winter. Many small mammals, such as Richardson's ground squirrels, Spermophilus richardsonii, cope with these conditions by hibernating. Animals enter long periods of profound torpor where metabolic rate is greatly suppressed, body temperature drops to near-ambient and all metabolic needs must be met from fixed internal body stores of fuels. To investigate how GDH is regulated under these conditions, kinetic properties of GDH were analyzed in liver from euthermic and torpid squirrels, revealing significant differences in V(max), K(m) glutamate, K(a) ADP and inhibition by urea between the two forms of GDH. These data suggested an activation of the glutamate-oxidizing activity of GDH in the hypometabolic state. Subsequent experiments suggested that the molecular basis of the kinetic differences was a change in the protein phosphorylation state of GDH between euthermia and torpor. Specifically, liver GDH appears to be dephosphorylated and activated when animals transition into torpor and this may serve to promote amino acid oxidation to contribute to energy production and gluconeogenesis. This is the first study to show that mammalian liver GDH can be regulated by reversible phosphorylation, providing an important new regulatory mechanism for GDH control.

Abstract
The NAD(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD-GDH) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was purified, and its amino-terminal amino acid sequence was determined. This sequence information was used in identifying and cloning the encoding gdhB gene and its flanking regions. The molecular mass predicted from the derived sequence for the encoded NAD-GDH was 182.6 kDa, in close agreement with that determined from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme (180 kDa). Cross-linking studies established that the native NAD-GDH is a tetramer of equal subunits. Comparison of the derived amino acid sequence of NAD-GDH from P. aeruginosa with the GenBank database showed the highest homology with hypothetical polypeptides from Pseudomonas putida, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rickettsia prowazakii, Legionella pneumophila, Vibrio cholerae, Shewanella putrefaciens, Sinorhizobium meliloti, and Caulobacter crescentus. A moderate degree of homology, primarily in the central domain, was observed with the smaller tetrameric NAD-GDH (protomeric mass of 110 kDa) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Neurospora crassa. Comparison with the yet smaller hexameric GDH (protomeric mass of 48 to 55 kDa) of other prokaryotes yielded a low degree of homology that was limited to residues important for binding of substrates and for catalytic function. NAD-GDH was induced 27-fold by exogenous arginine and only 3-fold by exogenous glutamate. Primer extension experiments established that transcription of gdhB is initiated from an arginine-inducible promoter and that this induction is dependent on the arginine regulatory protein, ArgR, a member of the AraC/XyIS family of regulatory proteins. NAD-GDH was purified to homogeneity from a recombinant strain of P. aeruginosa and characterized. The glutamate saturation curve was sigmoid, indicating positive cooperativity in the binding of glutamate. NAD-GDH activity was subject to allosteric control by arginine and citrate, which function as positive and negative effectors, respectively. Both effectors act by influencing the affinity of the enzyme for glutamate. NAD-GDH from this organism differs from previously characterized enzymes with respect to structure, protomer mass, and allosteric properties indicate that this enzyme represents a novel class of microbial glutamate dehydrogenases.

Abstract
The first step of amino acid degradation in lactococci is a transamination, which requires an alpha-keto acid as the amino group acceptor. We have previously shown that the level of available alpha-keto acid in semihard cheese is the first limiting factor for conversion of amino acids to aroma compounds, since aroma formation is greatly enhanced by adding alpha-ketoglutarate to cheese curd. In this study we introduced a heterologous catabolic glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) gene into Lactococcus lactis so that this organism could produce alpha-ketoglutarate from glutamate, which is present at high levels in cheese. Then we evaluated the impact of GDH activity on amino acid conversion in in vitro tests and in a cheese model by using radiolabeled amino acids as tracers. The GDH-producing lactococcal strain degraded amino acids without added alpha-ketoglutarate to the same extent that the wild-type strain degraded amino acids with added alpha-ketoglutarate. Interestingly, the GDH-producing lactococcal strain produced a higher proportion of carboxylic acids, which are major aroma compounds. Our results demonstrated that a GDH-producing lactococcal strain could be used instead of adding alpha-ketoglutarate to improve aroma development in cheese.

Abstract
The assimilatory nitrite reductase catalyses the conversion of nitrite to ammonia. The enzyme from Candida utilis has been previously purified to homogeneity and shown to be a heterodimer consisting of 58 kDa and 66 kDa subunits. The enzyme has also been shown to be induced by nitrate and repressed by ammonium ions. The levels of nitrite reductase mRNA, its protein and the enzyme activity were modulated together indicating that the primary level of regulation of this enzyme existed at the transcriptional level. Here we report that the 58 kDa and 66 kDa subunits of the enzyme were differentially phosphorylated under the induced and repressed conditions, indicating a second level of regulation. The highly phosphorylated 66 kDa subunit was shown to be dephosphorylated by calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase. The enzymatic activity associated with the native enzyme also decreased due to the dephosphorylation. Each of the subunits could undergo autophosphorylation at serine/threonine residues as demonstrated by thin layer chromatography and recognition by antibodies to phosphoamino acids. The presence of similar phosphorylated subunits under in vivo conditions has also been demonstrated. A model has been proposed to explain the post-translational regulation of the enzyme.

Abstract
The forskolin-induced steroidogenic block of testosterone production residing beyond pregnenolone synthesis in rat Leydig cells was localized to the level of the 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17betaHSD) reaction in this study. The use of forskolin analogs that discriminate between the diterpene's inhibitory effect on the glucose transporter(s) (1,9-dideoxyforskolin) and its activation of adenylate cyclase (6-aminoethyl carbamyl forskolin) revealed that the block is related to inhibition of glucose transporter(s). 1,9-Dideoxyforskolin, but not 6-aminoethyl carbamyl forskolin, caused a significant inhibition of basal and hCG-stimulated testosterone production with accumulation of androstenedione. Glucose-deficient media produced the same metabolic block in the absence of forskolin, with a significant reduction in 17betaHSD activity and increases in the apparent Km for androstenedione. In contrast, metabolic steps before testosterone formation were not affected. Glucose-induced 17betaHSD activation was mimicked by the addition of ATP or GTP in glucose-deficient media, but not by nonhydrolyzable triphosphate analogs or NADPH. A decrease in 17betaHSD activity caused by KT-5720, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase A and the calmodulin antagonist W-7, indicates that the ATP requirement may be related to the participation of protein kinases in the activation of 17betaHSD. ATP levels derived from alternative (nonglycolytic) pathways are adequate to support basal and hormone-stimulated enzymatic activities in the metabolism of cholesterol to androstenedione. However, the integrity of the glucose transport system with subsequent ATP generation is required for activation of 17betaHSD in the final step of androgen biosynthesis. In conclusion, the conversion of androstenedione to testosterone requires the contribution of the glycolytic pathway to meet ATP requirements for 17betaHSD activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to test whether 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase might exist in a phosphorylated form. STUDY DESIGN Phosphorylation of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was evaluated in BeWo choriocarcinoma cells. The phosphorylation of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase expressed in Escherichia coli as a glutathione transferase fusion protein was also studied. RESULTS Human BeWo choriocarcinoma cells were metabolically labeled with phosphorus 32 orthophosphate. Immunoprecipitates were prepared with rabbit anti-17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase antiserum from the labeled cells and separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A phosphorylated protein with a molecular size of 35 kd was obtained from anti-17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase immunoprecipitates, which suggested that 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was phosphorylated in BeWo cells. The predominant phosphoamino acid was phosphoserine. 17 beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase expressed in E. coli as a glutathione transferase fusion protein was a substrate of protein kinase A in vitro. Protein kinase A phosphorylated the recombinant 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase exclusively on serine. Incubation of BeWo cell lysates with bacterial alkaline phosphatase led to a decrease in the oxidative activity of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Incubation of the alkaline phosphatase inhibitor levamisole with BeWo cell lysates resulted in a higher estradiol-to-estrone conversion rate, compared with cell lysates without any treatment. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase may exist in phosphorylated forms and that phosphorylation may regulate the activity of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in vivo.

Abstract
The effect of different adenine-containing compounds on the NADP-/NAD-glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) ratio was studied as a function of yeast-mycelium transition in Benjaminiella poitrasii. Under in vivo conditions, at a 5.0 mM concentration, cyclic AMP (cAMP) and dibutyryl cAMP maintained the cells in the yeast form for up to 7 and 5 h, respectively, and this was reflected in the patterns of GDH ratios observed. In vitro studies of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation have also been carried out, and the results suggest a possible correlation between cAMP, the GDH ratio, and cell form in B. poitrasii.

Abstract
The family of glutamate dehydrogenases include a group of hexameric oligomers with a subunit M(r) of around 50,000, which are closely related in amino acid sequence and a smaller group of tetrameric oligomers based on a much larger subunit with M(r) 115,000. Sequence comparisons have indicated a low level of similarity between the C-terminal portion of the tetrameric enzymes and a substantial region of the polypeptide chain for the more widespread hexameric glutamate dehydrogenases. In the light of the solution of the three-dimensional structure of the hexameric NAD(+)-linked glutamate dehydrogenase from Clostridium symbiosum, we have undertaken a detailed examination of the alignment of the sequence for the C-terminal domain of the tetrameric Neurospora crassa glutamate dehydrogenase against the sequence and the molecular structure of that from C. symbiosum. This analysis reveals that the residues conserved between these two families are clustered in the three-dimensional structure and points to a remarkably similar layout of the glutamate-binding site and the active-site pocket, though with some differences in the mode of recognition of the nucleotide cofactor.

Abstract
The 'high ammonia pathway' enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP+) is inactivated in cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa when the stationary phase of growth is reached. Purified glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP+) appeared to be a protein composed of six identical subunits with a molecular weight of 54 000. With antibodies raised against purified enzyme it was found that glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP+) inactivation is accompanied by a parallel decrease in immunologically reactive material. This suggests that glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP+) inactivation is caused or followed by rapid proteolysis.

Abstract
Glutamine synthetase activity is modulated by nitrogen repression and by two distinct inactivation processes. Addition of glutamine to exponentially grown yeast leads to enzyme inactivation. 50% of glutamine synthetase activity is lost after 30 min (a quarter of the generation time). Removing glutamine from the growth medium results in a rapid recovery of enzyme activity. A regulatory mutation (gdhCR mutation) suppresses this inactivation by glutamine in addition to its derepressing effect on enzymes involved in nitrogen catabolism. The gdhCR mutation also increases the level of proteinase B in exponentially grown yeast. Inactivation of glutamine synthetase is also observed during nitrogen starvation. This inactivation is irreversible and consists very probably of a proteolytic degradation. Indeed, strains bearing proteinase A, B and C mutations are no longer inactivated under nitrogen starvation.

Abstract
A protein phosphatase was isolated from the yeast, Candida utilis, which could reactivate (dephosphorylate) the phosphorylated form of the NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase. The protein could also dephosphorylate casein, histone and kemptide (a heptapeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site of liver pyruvate kinase). Reactivation of the phosphorylated glutamate dehydrogenase was stimulated by the simultaneous addition of NAD and L-glutamate; 2-oxoglutarate, NH+4 and NADH had no effect. The reactivation of phosphorylated glutamate dehydrogenase could be inhibited by phosphate, pyrophosphate and fluoride.

Abstract
When ammonia was removed from Chlorella sorokiniana cells, which contain an ammonium-inducible nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP-GDH), the activity of this enzyme decayed with a half-life of approximately 8 min. By use of rocket immunoelectrophoresis, indirect immunoprecipitation, and indirect immunoadsorption (coupled with pulse-chase experiments with 35S-labeled sulfate), the rapid initial loss in activity was shown to be due to enzyme inactivation rather than degradation of NADP-GDH antigen. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of immunoprecipitates obtained with anti-NADP-GDH immunoglobulin G showed that enzyme inactivation is accompanied by the conversion of enzyme subunits (Mr = 59,000) to a protein with a molecular weight of 118,000. Because this protein was stable during boiling and in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and high concentrations of mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol, it was tentatively assumed to be a covalently linked dimer of enzyme subunits. Pulse-chase experiments showed that total NADP-GDH antigen was subject to rapid degradation (t 1/2 = 88 min) in induced cells, and the same degradation rate was maintained after removal of ammonia from induced cells.
