[PMID: 38951684 PMCID: PMC11297269 DOI: 10.1038/s44320-024-00049-2] [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: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Proximity labeling (PL) via biotinylation coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) captures spatial proteomes in cells. Large-scale processing requires a workflow minimizing hands-on time and enhancing quantitative reproducibility. We introduced a scalable PL pipeline integrating automated enrichment of biotinylated proteins in a 96-well plate format. Combining this with optimized quantitative MS based on data-independent acquisition (DIA), we increased sample throughput and improved protein identification and quantification reproducibility. We applied this pipeline to delineate subcellular proteomes across various compartments. Using the 5HT2A serotonin receptor as a model, we studied temporal changes of proximal interaction networks induced by receptor activation. In addition, we modified the pipeline for reduced sample input to accommodate CRISPR-based gene knockout, assessing dynamics of the 5HT2A network in response to perturbation of selected interactors. This PL approach is universally applicable to PL proteomics using biotinylation-based PL enzymes, enhancing throughput and reproducibility of standard protocols.

Abstract
Calcium ions serve as key intracellular signals. Local, transient increases in calcium concentrations can activate calcium sensor proteins that in turn trigger downstream effectors. In neurons, calcium transients play a central role in regulating neurotransmitter release and synaptic plasticity. However, it is challenging to capture the molecular events associated with these localized and ephemeral calcium signals. Here we present an engineered biotin ligase that generates permanent molecular traces in a calcium-dependent manner. The enzyme, calcium-dependent BioID (Cal-ID), biotinylates nearby proteins within minutes in response to elevated local calcium levels. The biotinylated proteins can be identified via mass spectrometry and visualized using microscopy. In neurons, Cal-ID labeling is triggered by neuronal activity, leading to prominent protein biotinylation that enables transcription-independent activity labeling in the brain. In summary, Cal-ID produces a biochemical record of calcium signals and neuronal activity with high spatial resolution and molecular specificity.

Abstract
Proximity is a fundamental concept in chemistry and biology, referring to the convergence of molecules to facilitate new molecular interactions or reactions. Hybrid biopolymers like glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins, ubiquitinated proteins, glycosylated RNAs (glycoRNAs), and RNAylated proteins exemplify this by covalent bonding of moieties that are often orthogonally active. Hybrid molecules like glycoRNAs are localized to new physical spaces, generating new interfaces for biological functions. To fully investigate the compositional and spatial features of molecules like glycoRNAs, flexible genetic and chemical tools that encompass different encoding and targeting biopolymers are required. Here we discuss concepts of molecular proximity and explore newer proximity labeling technologies that facilitate applications in RNA biology, cell surface biology, and the interface therein with a particular focus on glycoRNA biology. We review the advantages and disadvantages of methods pertaining to cell surface RNA identification and provide insights into the vast opportunities for method development in this area.

Abstract
Gene expression is a fundamental and highly regulated process involving a series of tightly coordinated steps, including transcription, post-transcriptional processing, translation, and post-translational modifications. A growing number of studies have revealed an additional layer of complexity in gene expression through the phenomenon of mRNA subcellular localization. mRNAs can be organized into membraneless subcellular structures within both the cytoplasm and the nucleus, but they can also targeted to membranes. In this review, we will summarize in particular our knowledge on localization of mRNAs to organelles, focusing on important regulators and available techniques for studying organellar localization, and significance of this localization in the broader context of gene expression regulation.

Abstract
Mitochondria reside at the crossroads of catabolic and anabolic metabolism-the essence of life. How their structure and function are dynamically tuned in response to tissue-specific needs for energy, growth repair, and renewal is being increasingly understood. Mitochondria respond to intrinsic and extrinsic stresses and can alter cell and organismal function by inducing metabolic signaling within cells and to distal cells and tissues. Here, we review how the centrality of mitochondrial functions manifests in health and a broad spectrum of diseases and aging.

Abstract
The mammalian mitochondrial proteome comprises over 1000 proteins, with the majority translated from nuclear-encoded messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Mounting evidence suggests many of these mRNAs are localized to the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) in a pre- or cotranslational state. Upon reaching the mitochondrial surface, these mRNAs are locally translated to produce proteins that are cotranslationally imported into mitochondria. Here, we summarize various mechanisms cells use to localize RNAs, including transfer RNAs (tRNAs), to the OMM and recent technological advancements in the field to study these processes. While most early studies in the field were carried out in yeast, recent studies reveal RNA localization to the OMM and their regulation in higher organisms. Various factors regulate this localization process, including RNA sequence elements, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), cytoskeletal motors, and translation machinery. In this review, we also highlight the role of RNA structures and modifications in mitochondrial RNA localization and discuss how these features can alter the binding properties of RNAs. Finally, in addition to RNAs related to mitochondrial function, RNAs involved in other cellular processes can also localize to the OMM, including those implicated in the innate immune response and piRNA biogenesis. As impairment of messenger RNA (mRNA) localization and regulation compromise mitochondrial function, future studies will undoubtedly expand our understanding of how RNAs localize to the OMM and investigate the consequences of their mislocalization in disorders, particularly neurodegenerative diseases, muscular dystrophies, and cancers.

Abstract
The cytosol-facing outer membrane (OM) of organelles communicates with other cellular compartments to exchange proteins, metabolites, and signaling molecules. Cellular surveillance systems also target OM-resident proteins to control organellar homeostasis and ensure cell survival under stress. However, the OM proximity proteomes have never been mapped in plant cells since using traditional approaches to discover OM proteins and identify their dynamically interacting partners remains challenging. In this study, we developed an OM proximity labeling (OMPL) system using biotin ligase-mediated proximity biotinylation to identify the proximity proteins of the OMs of mitochondria, chloroplasts, and peroxisomes in living Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) cells. Using this approach, we mapped the OM proximity proteome of these three organelles under normal conditions and examined the effects of the ultraviolet-B (UV-B) or high light (HL) stress on the abundances of OM proximity proteins. We demonstrate the power of this system with the discovery of cytosolic factors and OM receptor candidates potentially involved in local protein translation and translocation. The candidate proteins that are involved in mitochondrion-peroxisome, mitochondrion-chloroplast, or peroxisome-chloroplast contacts, and in the organellar quality control system are also proposed based on OMPL analysis. OMPL-generated OM proximity proteomes are valuable sources of candidates for functional validation and suggest directions for further investigation of important questions in cell biology.

Abstract
Cell diversification is at the base of increasing multicellular organism complexity in phylogeny achieved during ontogeny. However, there are also functions common to all cells, such as cell division, cell migration, translation, endocytosis, exocytosis, etc. Here we revisit the organelles involved in such common functions, reviewing recent evidence of unexpected differences of proteins at these organelles. For instance, centrosomes or mitochondria differ significantly in their protein composition in different, sometimes closely related, cell types. This has relevance for development and disease. Particularly striking is the high amount and diversity of RNA-binding proteins at these and other organelles, which brings us to review the evidence for RNA at different organelles and suborganelles. We include a discussion about (sub)organelles involved in translation, such as the nucleolus and ribosomes, for which unexpected cell type-specific diversity has also been reported. We propose here that the heterogeneity of these organelles and compartments represents a novel mechanism for regulating cell diversity. One reason is that protein functions can be multiplied by their different contributions in distinct organelles, as also exemplified by proteins with moonlighting function. The specialized organelles still perform pan-cellular functions but in a cell type-specific mode, as discussed here for centrosomes, mitochondria, vesicles, and other organelles. These can serve as regulatory hubs for the storage and transport of specific and functionally important regulators. In this way, they can control cell differentiation, plasticity, and survival. We further include examples highlighting the relevance for disease and propose to examine organelles in many more cell types for their possible differences with functional relevance.

Abstract
Protein trafficking is a fundamental process with profound implications for both intracellular and intercellular functions. Proximity labeling (PL) technology has emerged as a powerful tool for capturing precise snapshots of subcellular proteomes by directing promiscuous enzymes to specific cellular locations. These enzymes generate reactive species that tag endogenous proteins, enabling their identification through mass spectrometry-based proteomics. In this comprehensive review, we delve into recent advancements in PL-based methodologies, placing particular emphasis on the label-and-fractionation approach and TransitID, for mapping proteome trafficking. These methodologies not only facilitate the exploration of dynamic intracellular protein trafficking between organelles but also illuminate the intricate web of intercellular and inter-organ protein communications.

Abstract
The key role of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression is intimately tied to their subcellular localization. Here, we show a subcellular-specific RNA labeling method for efficient enrichment and deep profiling of nuclear and cytoplasmic RBPs. A total of 1221 nuclear RBPs and 1333 cytoplasmic RBPs were enriched and identified using nuclear/cytoplasm targeting enrichment probes, representing an increase of 54.4% and 85.7% compared with previous reports. The probes were further applied in the omics-level investigation of subcellular-specific RBP-RNA interactions upon ferroptosis induction. Interestingly, large-scale RBPs display enhanced interaction with RNAs in nucleus but reduced association with RNAs in cytoplasm during ferroptosis process. Furthermore, we discovered dozens of nucleoplasmic translocation candidate RBPs upon ferroptosis induction and validated representative ones by immunofluorescence imaging. The enrichment of Tricarboxylic acid cycle in the translocation candidate RBPs may provide insights for investigating their possible roles in ferroptosis induced metabolism dysregulation.

Abstract
The cytoplasm is highly compartmentalized, but the extent and consequences of subcytoplasmic mRNA localization in non-polarized cells are largely unknown. We determined mRNA enrichment in TIS granules (TGs) and the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through particle sorting and isolated cytosolic mRNAs by digitonin extraction. When focusing on genes that encode non-membrane proteins, we observed that 52% have transcripts enriched in specific compartments. Compartment enrichment correlates with a combinatorial code based on mRNA length, exon length, and 3' UTR-bound RNA-binding proteins. Compartment-biased mRNAs differ in the functional classes of their encoded proteins: TG-enriched mRNAs encode low-abundance proteins with strong enrichment of transcription factors, whereas ER-enriched mRNAs encode large and highly expressed proteins. Compartment localization is an important determinant of mRNA and protein abundance, which is supported by reporter experiments showing that redirecting cytosolic mRNAs to the ER increases their protein expression. In summary, the cytoplasm is functionally compartmentalized by local translation environments.

Abstract
Mitochondria are vital to the functions of eukaryotic cells. Most mitochondrial proteins are transported into the organelle following their synthesis by cytoplasmic ribosomes. However, precise protein targeting is complex because the two diverse lipid membranes encase mitochondria. Efficient protein translocation across membranes and accurate sorting to specific sub-compartments require the cooperation of multiple factors. Any failure in mitochondrial protein import can disrupt organelle fitness. Proteins intended for mitochondria make up a significant portion of all proteins produced in the cytosol. Therefore, import defects causing their mislocalization can significantly stress cellular protein homeostasis. Recognition of this phenomenon has increased interest in molecular mechanisms that respond to import-related stress and restore proteostasis, which is the focus of this review. Significantly, disruptions in protein homeostasis link strongly to the pathology of several degenerative disorders highly relevant in ageing societies. A comprehensive understanding of protein import quality control will allow harnessing this machinery in therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Most mitochondrial proteins are targeted to the organelle by N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequences (MTSs, or "presequences") that are recognized by the import machinery and subsequently cleaved to yield the mature protein. MTSs do not have conserved amino acid compositions, but share common physicochemical properties, including the ability to form amphipathic α-helical structures enriched with basic and hydrophobic residues on alternating faces. The lack of strict sequence conservation implies that some polypeptides can be mistargeted to mitochondria, especially under cellular stress. The pathogenic accumulation of proteins within mitochondria is implicated in many aging-related neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases. Mechanistically, these diseases may originate in part from mitochondrial interactions with amyloid-β precursor protein (APP) or its cleavage product amyloid-β (Aβ), α-synuclein (α-syn), and mutant forms of huntingtin (mHtt), respectively, that are mediated in part through their associations with the mitochondrial protein import machinery. Emerging evidence suggests that these amyloidogenic proteins may present cryptic targeting signals that act as MTS mimetics and can be recognized by mitochondrial import receptors and transported into different mitochondrial compartments. Accumulation of these mistargeted proteins could overwhelm the import machinery and its associated quality control mechanisms, thereby contributing to neurological disease progression. Alternatively, the uptake of amyloidogenic proteins into mitochondria may be part of a protein quality control mechanism for clearance of cytotoxic proteins. Here we review the pathomechanisms of these diseases as they relate to mitochondrial protein import and effects on mitochondrial function, what features of APP/Aβ, α-syn and mHtt make them suitable substrates for the import machinery, and how this information can be leveraged for the development of therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
In recent years, it has become increasingly clear that many nuclear membrane-less compartments have liquid-like properties and may form through the physicochemical process of phase separation. In this review, we will first discuss how various nuclear compartments, such as the genome, transcription compartments, and nuclear bodies are formed through phase separation. Then, we propose that inter-compartmental communications can also be prevalent and may be mediated by inter-compartmental diffusion of macromolecules, fusion among different compartments, and transient or stable contacts among nuclear compartments. Understanding how nuclear compartments communicate with each other represents an exciting new area of research and may reveal important insights about cellular functions and uncover previously under-appreciated disease mechanisms.

Abstract
Recent efforts towards the comprehensive identification of RNA-bound proteomes have revealed a large, surprisingly diverse family of candidate RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). Quantitative metrics for characterization and validation of protein-RNA interactions and their dynamic interactions have, however, proven analytically challenging and prone to error. Here we report a method termed LEAP-RBP (Liquid-Emulsion-Assisted-Purification of RNA-Bound Protein) for the selective, quantitative recovery of UV-crosslinked RNA-protein complexes. By virtue of its high specificity and yield, LEAP-RBP distinguishes RNA-bound and RNA-free protein levels and reveals common sources of experimental noise in RNA-centric RBP enrichment methods. We introduce strategies for accurate RBP identification and signal-based metrics for quantifying protein-RNA complex enrichment, relative RNA occupancy, and method specificity. In this work, the utility of our approach is validated by comprehensive identification of RBPs whose association with mRNA is modulated in response to global mRNA translation state changes and through in-depth benchmark comparisons with current methodologies.

Abstract
Mitochondria are often referred to as the "powerhouse" of the cell. However, this organelle has many more functions than simply satisfying the cells' metabolic needs. Mitochondria are involved in calcium homeostasis and lipid metabolism, and they also regulate apoptotic processes. Many of these functions require contact with the ER, which is mediated by several tether proteins located on the respective organellar surfaces, enabling the formation of mitochondria-ER contact sites (MERCS). Upon damage, mitochondria produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can harm the surrounding cell. To circumvent toxicity and to maintain a functional pool of healthy organelles, damaged and excess mitochondria can be targeted for degradation via mitophagy, a form of selective autophagy. Defects in mitochondria-ER tethers and the accumulation of damaged mitochondria are found in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which argues that the interplay between the two organelles is vital for neuronal health. This review provides an overview of the different mechanisms of mitochondrial quality control that are implicated with the different mitochondria-ER tether proteins, and also provides a novel perspective on how MERCS are involved in mediating mitophagy upon mitochondrial damage.

Abstract
The ability to map trafficking for thousands of endogenous proteins at once in living cells would reveal biology currently invisible to both microscopy and mass spectrometry. Here, we report TransitID, a method for unbiased mapping of endogenous proteome trafficking with nanometer spatial resolution in living cells. Two proximity labeling (PL) enzymes, TurboID and APEX, are targeted to source and destination compartments, and PL with each enzyme is performed in tandem via sequential addition of their small-molecule substrates. Mass spectrometry identifies the proteins tagged by both enzymes. Using TransitID, we mapped proteome trafficking between cytosol and mitochondria, cytosol and nucleus, and nucleolus and stress granules (SGs), uncovering a role for SGs in protecting the transcription factor JUN from oxidative stress. TransitID also identifies proteins that signal intercellularly between macrophages and cancer cells. TransitID offers a powerful approach for distinguishing protein populations based on compartment or cell type of origin.

Abstract
Neurons are highly dependent on mitochondrial ATP production and Ca2+ buffering. Neurons have unique compartmentalized anatomy and energy requirements, and each compartment requires continuously renewed mitochondria to maintain neuronal survival and activity. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) is a key factor in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis. It is widely accepted that mitochondria are synthesized in the cell body and transported via axons to the distal end. However, axonal mitochondrial biogenesis is necessary to maintain axonal bioenergy supply and mitochondrial density due to limitations in mitochondrial axonal transport rate and mitochondrial protein lifespan. In addition, impaired mitochondrial biogenesis leading to inadequate energy supply and neuronal damage has been observed in neurological disorders. In this review, we focus on the sites where mitochondrial biogenesis occurs in neurons and the mechanisms by which it maintains axonal mitochondrial density. Finally, we summarize several neurological disorders in which mitochondrial biogenesis is affected.

Abstract
Key early features of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are denervation of neuromuscular junctions and axonal degeneration. Motor neuron homeostasis relies on local translation through controlled regulation of axonal mRNA localization, transport, and stability. Yet the composition of the local transcriptome, translatome (mRNAs locally translated), and proteome during health and disease remains largely unexplored. This review covers recent discoveries on axonal translation as a critical mechanism for neuronal maintenance/survival. We focus on two RNA binding proteins, transactive response DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43) and fused in sarcoma (FUS), whose mutations cause ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Emerging evidence points to their essential role in the maintenance of axons and synapses, including mRNA localization, transport, and local translation, and whose dysfunction may contribute to ALS. Finally, we describe recent advances in omics-based approaches mapping compartment-specific local RNA and protein compositions, which will be invaluable to elucidate fundamental local processes and identify key targets for therapy development.

Abstract
Biogenesis of mitochondria requires the import of approximately 1,000 different precursor proteins into and across the mitochondrial membranes. Mitochondria exhibit a wide variety of mechanisms and machineries for the translocation and sorting of precursor proteins. Five major import pathways that transport proteins to their functional intramitochondrial destination have been elucidated; these pathways range from the classical amino-terminal presequence-directed pathway to pathways using internal or even carboxy-terminal targeting signals in the precursors. Recent studies have provided important insights into the structural organization of membrane-embedded preprotein translocases of mitochondria. A comparison of the different translocases reveals the existence of at least three fundamentally different mechanisms: two-pore-translocase, β-barrel switching, and transport cavities open to the lipid bilayer. In addition, translocases are physically engaged in dynamic interactions with respiratory chain complexes, metabolite transporters, quality control factors, and machineries controlling membrane morphology. Thus, mitochondrial preprotein translocases are integrated into multi-functional networks of mitochondrial and cellular machineries.

Abstract
The ability to map trafficking for thousands of endogenous proteins at once in living cells would reveal biology currently invisible to both microscopy and mass spectrometry. Here we report TransitID, a method for unbiased mapping of endogenous proteome trafficking with nanometer spatial resolution in living cells. Two proximity labeling (PL) enzymes, TurboID and APEX, are targeted to source and destination compartments, and PL with each enzyme is performed in tandem via sequential addition of their small-molecule substrates. Mass spectrometry identifies the proteins tagged by both enzymes. Using TransitID, we mapped proteome trafficking between cytosol and mitochondria, cytosol and nucleus, and nucleolus and stress granules, uncovering a role for stress granules in protecting the transcription factor JUN from oxidative stress. TransitID also identifies proteins that signal intercellularly between macrophages and cancer cells. TransitID introduces a powerful approach for distinguishing protein populations based on compartment or cell type of origin.

Abstract
Throughout biology, RNA molecules form complex networks of molecular interactions that are central to their function, but remain challenging to investigate. Here, we introduce Oligonucleotide-mediated proximity-interactome MAPping (O-MAP), a straightforward method for elucidating the biomolecules near an RNA of interest, within its native cellular context. O-MAP uses programmable oligonucleotide probes to deliver proximity-biotinylating enzymes to a target RNA, enabling nearby molecules to be enriched by streptavidin pulldown. O-MAP induces exceptionally precise RNA-localized in situ biotinylation, and unlike alternative methods it enables straightforward optimization of its targeting accuracy. Using the 47S pre-ribosomal RNA and long noncoding RNA Xist as models, we develop O-MAP workflows for unbiased discovery of RNA-proximal proteins, transcripts, and genomic loci. This revealed unexpected co-compartmentalization of Xist and other chromatin-regulatory RNAs and enabled systematic characterization of nucleolar-chromatin interactions across multiple cell lines. O-MAP is portable to cultured cells, organoids, and tissues, and to RNAs of various lengths, abundances, and sequence composition. And, O-MAP requires no genetic manipulation and uses exclusively off-the-shelf parts. We therefore anticipate its application to a broad array of RNA phenomena.

Abstract
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have emerged as important players in multiple biological processes including transcription regulation, splicing, R-loop homeostasis, DNA rearrangement, miRNA function, biogenesis, and ribosome biogenesis. A large number of RBPs had already been identified by different approaches in various organisms and exhibited regulatory functions on RNAs' fate. RBPs can either directly or indirectly interact with their target RNAs or mRNAs to assume a key biological function whose outcome may trigger disease or normal biological events. They also exert distinct functions related to their canonical and non-canonical forms. This review summarizes the current understanding of a wide range of RBPs' functions and highlights their emerging roles in the regulation of diverse pathways, different physiological processes, and their molecular links with diseases. Various types of diseases, encompassing colorectal carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, aberrantly express RBPs. We also highlight some recent advances in the field that could prompt the development of RBPs-based therapeutic interventions.

Expression of Synj2bp in mouse liver regulates the extent of wrappER-mitochondria contact to maintain hepatic lipid homeostasis. Biol Direct 2022; 17:37. [PMID: 36457006 PMCID: PMC9717519 DOI: 10.1186/s13062-022-00344-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In mouse liver hepatocytes, nearly half of the surface area of every mitochondrion is covered by wrappER, a wrapping-type of ER that is rich in fatty acids and synthesizes lipoproteins (VLDL) (Anastasia et al. in Cell Rep 34:108873, 2021; Hurtley in Science (80- ) 372:142-143, 2021; Ilacqua et al. in J Cell Sci 135:1-11, 2021). A disruption of the ultrastructure of the wrappER-mitochondria contact results in altered fatty acid flux, leading to hepatic dyslipidemia (Anastasia et al. 2021). The molecular mechanism that regulates the extent of wrappER-mitochondria contacts is unknown. METHODS We evaluated the expression level of the mitochondrial protein Synj2bp in the liver of normal and obese (ob/ob) mice. In addition, we silenced its expression in the liver using an AAV8 vector. We coupled quantitative EM morphometric analysis to proteomics and lipid analyses on these livers. RESULTS The expression level of Synj2bp in the liver positively correlates with the extent of wrappER-mitochondria contacts. A 50% reduction in wrappER-mitochondria contacts causes hepatic dyslipidemia, characterized by a gross accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver, an increased hepatic secretion of VLDL and triglycerides, a curtailed ApoE expression, and an increased capacity of mitochondrial fatty acid respiration. CONCLUSION Synj2bp regulates the extent of wrappER-mitochondria contacts in the liver, thus contributing to the control of hepatic lipid flux.

Abstract
Proximity ligation technologies are extremely powerful tools for unveiling RNA-protein interactions occurring at different stages in living cells. These approaches mainly rely on the inducible activity of enzymes (biotin ligases or peroxidases) that promiscuously biotinylate macromolecules within a 20 nm range. These enzymes can be either fused to an RNA binding protein or tethered to any RNA of interest and expressed in living cells to biotinylate the amino acids and nucleic acids of binding partners in proximity. The biotinylated molecules can then be easily affinity purified under denaturing conditions and analyzed by mass spectrometry or next generation sequencing. These approaches have been widely used in recent years, providing a potent instrument to map the molecular interactions of specific RNA-binding proteins as well as RNA transcripts occurring in mammalian cells. In addition, they permit the identification of transient interactions as well as interactions among low expressed molecules that are often missed by standard affinity purification strategies. This review will provide a brief overview of the currently available proximity ligation methods, highlighting both their strengths and shortcomings. Furthermore, it will bring further insights to the way these technologies could be further used to characterize post-transcriptional modifications that are known to regulate RNA-protein interactions.

Abstract
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) endocytosis-dependent signalling drives cell proliferation and motility during development and adult homeostasis, but is dysregulated in diseases, including cancer. The recruitment of RTK signalling partners during endocytosis, specifically during recycling to the plasma membrane, is still unknown. Focusing on Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2b (FGFR2b) recycling, we reveal FGFR signalling partners proximal to recycling endosomes by developing a Spatially Resolved Phosphoproteomics (SRP) approach based on APEX2-driven biotinylation followed by phosphorylated peptides enrichment. Combining this with traditional phosphoproteomics, bioinformatics, and targeted assays, we uncover that FGFR2b stimulated by its recycling ligand FGF10 activates mTOR-dependent signalling and ULK1 at the recycling endosomes, leading to autophagy suppression and cell survival. This adds to the growing importance of RTK recycling in orchestrating cell fate and suggests a therapeutically targetable vulnerability in ligand-responsive cancer cells. Integrating SRP with other systems biology approaches provides a powerful tool to spatially resolve cellular signalling.

Abstract
Neurons critically depend on mitochondria for ATP production and Ca2+ buffering. They are highly compartmentalized cells and therefore a finely tuned mitochondrial network constantly adapting to the local requirements is necessary. For neuronal maintenance, old or damaged mitochondria need to be degraded, while the functional mitochondrial pool needs to be replenished with freshly synthesized components. Mitochondrial biogenesis is known to be primarily regulated via the PGC-1α-NRF1/2-TFAM pathway at the transcriptional level. However, while transcriptional regulation of mitochondrial genes can change the global mitochondrial content in neurons, it does not explain how a morphologically complex cell such as a neuron adapts to local differences in mitochondrial demand. In this review, we discuss regulatory mechanisms controlling mitochondrial biogenesis thereby making a case for differential regulation at the transcriptional and translational level. In neurons, additional regulation can occur due to the axonal localization of mRNAs encoding mitochondrial proteins. Hitchhiking of mRNAs on organelles including mitochondria as well as contact site formation between mitochondria and endolysosomes are required for local mitochondrial biogenesis in axons linking defects in any of these organelles to the mitochondrial dysfunction seen in various neurological disorders.

Abstract
Mammalian axonal development begins in embryonic stages and continues postnatally. After birth, axonal proteomic landscape changes rapidly, coordinated by transcription, protein turnover, and post-translational modifications. Comprehensive profiling of axonal proteomes across neurodevelopment is limited, with most studies lacking cell-type and neural circuit specificity, resulting in substantial information loss. We create a Cre-dependent APEX2 reporter mouse line and map cell-type-specific proteome of corticostriatal projections across postnatal development. We synthesize analysis frameworks to define temporal patterns of axonal proteome and phosphoproteome, identifying co-regulated proteins and phosphorylations associated with genetic risk for human brain disorders. We discover proline-directed kinases as major developmental regulators. APEX2 transgenic reporter proximity labeling offers flexible strategies for subcellular proteomics with cell type specificity in early neurodevelopment, a critical period for neuropsychiatric disease.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells across the tree of life organize their subcellular components via intracellular transport mechanisms. In canonical transport, myosin, kinesin, and dynein motor proteins interact with cargos via adaptor proteins and move along filamentous actin or microtubule tracks. In contrast to this canonical mode, hitchhiking is a newly discovered mode of intracellular transport in which a cargo attaches itself to an already-motile cargo rather than directly associating with a motor protein itself. Many cargos including messenger RNAs, protein complexes, and organelles hitchhike on membrane-bound cargos. Hitchhiking-like behaviors have been shown to impact cellular processes including local protein translation, long-distance signaling, and organelle network reorganization. Here, we review instances of cargo hitchhiking in fungal, animal, and plant cells and discuss the potential cellular and evolutionary importance of hitchhiking in these different contexts.

Abstract
Mitochondrial quality control is a key element of neuronal health and viability. When left untouched, defective mitochondria can initiate neuronal degeneration. Cytosolic proteins PINK1 and Parkin comprise one key pathway responsible for clearing damaged mitochondria. Neurons, however, pose a unique challenge to this process because proteins need to be abundantly available at locations distant from the cell body. Recent study has confirmed that local translation of PINK1 in axons and dendrites is the solution. Pink1 transcripts are tethered to mitochondria via SYNJ2a and active translation, then subsequently co-transported to distal locations. Once arriving in the neuron's periphery, local translation of PINK1 can facilitate mitophagy and ultimately sustain mitochondrial health.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are spherical, single sheet phospholipid-bound organelles that store neutral lipids in all eukaryotes and some prokaryotes. Initially conceived as relatively inert depots for energy and lipid precursors, these highly dynamic structures play active roles in homeostatic functions beyond metabolism, such as proteostasis and protein turnover, innate immunity and defense. A major share of the knowledge behind this paradigm shift has been enabled by the use of systematic molecular profiling approaches, capable of revealing and describing these non-intuitive systems-level relationships. Here, we discuss these advances and some of the challenges they entail, and highlight standing questions in the field.

Mitochondrial protein import stress regulates the LC3 lipidation step of mitophagy through NLRX1 and RRBP1. Mol Cell 2022; 82:2815-2831.e5. [PMID: 35752171 DOI: 10.1016/j.molcel.2022.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Protein import into mitochondria is a highly regulated process, yet how cells clear mitochondria undergoing dysfunctional protein import remains poorly characterized. Here we showed that mitochondrial protein import stress (MPIS) triggers localized LC3 lipidation. This arm of the mitophagy pathway occurs through the Nod-like receptor (NLR) protein NLRX1 while, surprisingly, without the engagement of the canonical mitophagy protein PINK1. Mitochondrial depolarization, which itself induces MPIS, also required NLRX1 for LC3 lipidation. While normally targeted to the mitochondrial matrix, cytosol-retained NLRX1 recruited RRBP1, a ribosome-binding transmembrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum, which relocated to the mitochondrial vicinity during MPIS, and the NLRX1/RRBP1 complex in turn controlled the recruitment and lipidation of LC3. Furthermore, NLRX1 controlled skeletal muscle mitophagy in vivo and regulated endurance capacity during exercise. Thus, localization and lipidation of LC3 at the site of mitophagosome formation is a regulated step of mitophagy controlled by NLRX1/RRBP1 in response to MPIS.

Abstract
Proximity labelling is a powerful and rapidly developing technology for exploring the interaction space and molecular environment of a protein of interest at the nanometre scale. In proximity labelling, a promiscuous biotinylating enzyme is genetically fused to the protein of interest, initiation of labelling then results in the biotinylating enzyme generating reactive biotin which covalently ‘tags’ nearby molecules. Importantly, this labelling takes place in vivo whilst the protein of interest continues to perform its normal functions in the cell. Due to its unique advantageous characteristics, proximity labelling is driving discoveries in an ever increasing range of organisms. Here, we highlight the applications of proximity labelling to the study of kinetoplastids, a group of eukaryotic protozoa that includes trypanosomes and Leishmania which can cause serious disease in humans and livestock. We first provide a general overview of the proximity labelling experimental workflow including key labelling enzymes used, proper experimental design with appropriate controls and robust statistical analysis to maximise the amount of reliable spatial information that is generated. We discuss studies employing proximity labelling in kinetoplastid parasites to illustrate how these key principles of experimental design are applied. Finally, we highlight emerging trends in the development of proximity labelling methodology.

Abstract
PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) is a short-lived protein required for the removal of damaged mitochondria through Parkin translocation and mitophagy. Because the short half-life of PINK1 limits its ability to be trafficked into neurites, local translation is required for this mitophagy pathway to be active far from the soma. The Pink1 transcript is associated and cotransported with neuronal mitochondria. In concert with translation, the mitochondrial outer membrane proteins synaptojanin 2 binding protein (SYNJ2BP) and synaptojanin 2 (SYNJ2) are required for tethering Pink1 mRNA to mitochondria via an RNA-binding domain in SYNJ2. This neuron-specific adaptation for the local translation of PINK1 provides distal mitochondria with a continuous supply of PINK1 for the activation of mitophagy.

Abstract
The nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) locus encodes two long non-coding (lnc)RNA isoforms that are upregulated in many tumours and dynamically expressed in response to stress. NEAT1 transcripts form ribonucleoprotein complexes with numerous RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to assemble paraspeckles and modulate the localisation and activity of gene regulatory enzymes as well as a subset of messenger (m)RNA transcripts. The investigation of the dynamic composition of NEAT1-associated proteins and mRNAs is critical to understand the function of NEAT1. Interestingly, a growing number of biochemical and genetic tools to assess NEAT1 interactomes has been reported. Here, we discuss the Hybridisation Proximity (HyPro) labeling technique in the context of NEAT1. HyPro labeling is a recently developed method to detect spatially ordered interactions of RNA-containing nuclear compartments in cultured human cells. After introducing NEAT1 and paraspeckles, we describe the advantages of the HyPro technology in the context of other methods to study RNA interactomes, and review the key findings in mapping NEAT1-associated RNA transcripts and protein binding partners. We further discuss the limitations and potential improvements of HyPro labeling, and conclude by delineating its applicability in paraspeckles-related cancer research.

Abstract
Neuronal homeostasis requires the transport of various organelles to distal compartments and defects in this process lead to neurological disorders. Although several mechanisms for the delivery of organelles to axons and dendrites have been elucidated, exactly how this process is orchestrated is not well-understood. In this review, we discuss the recent literature supporting a novel paradigm - the co-shuttling of mRNAs with different membrane-bound organelles. This model postulates that the tethering of ribonucleoprotein complexes to endolysosomes and mitochondria allows for the spatiotemporal coupling of organelle transport and the delivery of transcripts to axons. Subcellular translation of these "hitchhiking" transcripts may thus provide a proximal source of proteins required for the maintenance and function of organelles in axons.

Abstract
The study of protein complexes and protein-protein interactions is of great importance due to their fundamental roles in cellular function. Proximity labeling, often coupled with mass spectrometry, has become a powerful and versatile tool for studying protein-protein interactions by enriching and identifying proteins in the vicinity of a specified protein-of-interest. Here, we describe and compare traditional approaches to investigate protein-protein interactions to current day state-of-the-art proximity labeling methods. We focus on the wide array of proximity labeling strategies and underscore studies using diverse model systems to address numerous biological questions. In addition, we highlight current advances in mass spectrometry-based technology that exhibit promise in improving the depth and breadth of the data acquired in proximity labeling experiments. In all, we show the diversity of proximity labeling strategies and emphasize the broad range of applications and biological inquiries that can be addressed using this technology.

Abstract
Spatial segregation of mRNAs in the cytoplasm of cells is a well-known biological phenomenon that is widely observed in diverse species spanning different kingdoms of life. In mammalian cells, localization of mRNAs has been documented and studied quite extensively in highly polarized cells, most notably in neurons, where localized mRNAs function to direct protein production at sites that are quite distant from the soma. Recent studies have strikingly revealed that a large proportion of the cellular transcriptome exhibits polarized distributions even in cells that lack an obvious need for long-range transport, such as fibroblasts or epithelial cells. This review focuses on emerging concepts regarding the functional outcomes of mRNA targeting in the cytoplasm of such cells. We also discuss regulatory mechanisms controlling these events, with an emphasis on the role of cell mechanics and the organization of the cytoskeleton. This article is categorized under: Translation > Regulation RNA Export and Localization > RNA Localization.

Abstract
With few exceptions, proteins that constitute the proteome of mitochondria originate outside of this organelle in precursor forms. Such protein precursors follow dedicated transportation paths to reach specific parts of mitochondria, where they complete their maturation and perform their functions. Mitochondrial precursor targeting and import pathways are essential to maintain proper mitochondrial function and cell survival, thus are tightly controlled at each stage. Mechanisms that sustain protein homeostasis of the cytosol play a vital role in the quality control of proteins targeted to the organelle. Starting from their synthesis, precursors are constantly chaperoned and guided to reduce the risk of premature folding, erroneous interactions, or protein damage. The ubiquitin-proteasome system provides proteolytic control that is not restricted to defective proteins but also regulates the supply of precursors to the organelle. Recent discoveries provide evidence that stress caused by the mislocalization of mitochondrial proteins may contribute to disease development. Precursors are not only subject to regulation but also modulate cytosolic machinery. Here we provide an overview of the cellular pathways that are involved in precursor maintenance and guidance at the early cytosolic stages of mitochondrial biogenesis. Moreover, we follow the circumstances in which mitochondrial protein import deregulation disturbs the cellular balance, carefully looking for rescue paths that can restore proteostasis.

Abstract
Mitochondria play a critical role in providing energy, maintaining cellular metabolism, and regulating cell survival and death. To carry out these crucial functions, mitochondria employ more than 1500 proteins, distributed between two membranes and two aqueous compartments. An extensive network of dedicated proteins is engaged in importing and sorting these nuclear-encoded proteins into their designated mitochondrial compartments. Defects in this fundamental system are related to a variety of pathologies, particularly engaging the most energy-demanding tissues. In this review, we summarize the state-of-the-art knowledge about the mitochondrial protein import machinery and describe the known interrelation of its failure with age-related neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Recent advances in biotinylation-based proximity labeling (PL) have opened up new avenues for mapping the protein composition of cellular compartments and protein complexes in living cells at high spatiotemporal resolution. In particular, PL combined with mass spectrometry-based proteomics has been successfully applied to defining protein-protein interactions, protein-nucleic acid interactions, (membraneless) organelle proteomes, and secretomes in various systems ranging from cultured cells to whole animals. In this review, we first summarize the basics and recent biological applications of PL proteomics, and then highlight recent developments in enrichment techniques for biotinylated proteins and peptides, focusing on the advantages of PL and technical considerations.
