[PMID: 38795402 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2024.05.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) initially emerged as oral antidiabetic medication but were subsequently discovered to exhibit pleiotropic actions. Insomnia is a prevalent and debilitating sleep disorder. To date, the causality between SGLT2 inhibitors and insomnia remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the causality between SGLT2 inhibitors and insomnia and identify potential plasma protein mediators. METHODS Using a two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis, we estimated the causality of SGLT2 inhibition on insomnia and sleep duration. Additionally, employing a two-step and proteome-wide MR analysis, we evaluated the causal link of SGLT2 inhibition on 4907 circulating proteins and the causality of SGLT2 inhibition-driven plasma proteins on insomnia. We applied a false discovery rate (FDR) correction for multiple comparisons. Furthermore, mediation analyses were used to identify plasma proteins that mediate the effects of SGLT2 inhibition on insomnia. RESULTS SGLT2 inhibition was negatively correlated with insomnia (odds ratio [OR] = 0.791, 95 % confidence interval [CI] [0.715, 0.876], P = 5.579*10^-6) and positively correlated with sleep duration (β = 0.186, 95 % CI [0.059, 0.314], P = 0.004). Among the 4907 circulating proteins, diadenosine tetraphosphatase (Ap4A) was identified as being linked to both SGLT2 inhibition and insomnia. Mediation analysis indicated that the effect of SGLT2 inhibition on insomnia partially operates through Ap4A (β = -0.018, 95 % CI [-0.036, -0.005], P = 0.023), with a mediation proportion of 7.7 %. CONCLUSION The study indicated a causality between SGLT2 inhibition and insomnia, with plasma Ap4A potentially serving as a mediator.

Abstract
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP), a cellular endogenous sugar metabolite in the glycolytic pathway, has recently been reported to act as a signaling molecule to regulate various cellular events through the engagement of important proteins. Though tremendous progress has been made in identifying specific FBP-protein interactions, the comprehensive identification of FBP-interacting proteins and their regulatory mechanisms remains largely unexplored. Here, we describe a concise synthetic approach for the scalable preparation of a photoaffinity FBP probe that enables the quantitative chemoproteomic profiling of FBP-protein interactions based on photoaffinity labeling (PAL) directly in living cells. Using such a protocol, we captured known FBP targets including PKM2 and MDH2. Furthermore, among unknown FBP-interacting proteins, we identified a mitochondrial metabolic enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), against which FBP showed inhibitory activity and resulted in cellular ROS upregulation accompanied by mitochondrial fragmentation. Our findings disclosed a new mode of glucose signaling mediating by the FBP-ALDH2-ROS axis.

Abstract
The recent expansion of the field of RNA chemical modifications has changed our understanding of post-transcriptional gene regulation. Apart from internal nucleobase modifications, 7-methylguanosine was long thought to be the only eukaryotic RNA cap. However, the discovery of non-canonical RNA caps in eukaryotes revealed a new niche of previously undetected RNA chemical modifications. We are the first to report the existence of a new non-canonical RNA cap, diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4 A), in human and rat cell lines. Ap4 A is the most abundant dinucleoside polyphosphate in eukaryotic cells and can be incorporated into RNA by RNA polymerases as a non-canonical initiating nucleotide (NCIN). Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), we show that the amount of capped Ap4 A-RNA is independent of the cellular concentration of Ap4 A. A decapping enzyme screen identifies two enzymes cleaving Ap4 A-RNA,NUDT2 and DXO, both of which also cleave other substrate RNAs in vitro. We further assess the translatability and immunogenicity of Ap4 A-RNA and show that although it is not translated, Ap4 A-RNA is recognized as self by the cell and does not elicit an immune response, making it a natural component of the transcriptome. Our findings open a previously unexplored area of eukaryotic RNA regulation.

Abstract
The Fragile Histidine Triad Diadenosine Triphosphatase (FHIT) gene is located in the Common Fragile Site FRA3B and encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes the dinucleotide Ap3A. Although FHIT loss is one of the most frequent copy number alterations in cancer, its relevance for cancer initiation and progression remains unclear. FHIT is frequently lost in cancers from the digestive tract, which is compatible with being a cancer driver event in these tissues. However, FHIT loss could also be a passenger event due to the inherent fragility of the FRA3B locus. Moreover, the physiological relevance of FHIT enzymatic activity and the levels of Ap3A is largely unclear. We have conducted here a systematic pan-cancer analysis of FHIT status in connection with other mutations and phenotypic alterations, and we have critically discussed our findings in connection with the literature to provide an overall view of FHIT implications in cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The dinucleotide alarmone diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A), which is found in cells, has been shown to affect the survival of bacteria under stress. RESULTS Here, we labeled Ap4A with biotin and incubated the labeled Ap4A with the total proteins extracted from kanamycin-treated Escherichia coli to identify the Ap4A binding protein in bacteria treated with kanamycin. Liquid chromatography‒mass spectrometry (LCMS) and bioinformatics were used to identify novel proteins that Ap4A interacts with that are involved in biofilm formation, quorum sensing, and lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis pathways. Then, we used the apaH knockout strain of E. coli K12-MG1655, which had increased intracellular Ap4A, to demonstrate that Ap4A affected the expression of genes in these three pathways. We also found that the swarming motility of the apaH mutant strain was reduced compared with that of the wild-type strain, and under kanamycin treatment, the biofilm formation of the mutant strain decreased. CONCLUSIONS These results showed that Ap4A can reduce the survival rate of bacteria treated with kanamycin by regulating quorum sensing (QS). These effects can expand the application of kanamycin combinations in the treatment of multidrug-resistant bacteria.

[PMID: 37301333 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2023.130400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Recent findings have substantially broadened our knowledge about the diversity of modifications of the 5'end of RNAs, an issue generally attributed to mRNA cap structure (m7GpppN). Nudt12 is one of the recently described new enzymatic activities involved in cap metabolism. However, in contrast to its roles in metabolite-cap turnover (e.g., NAD-cap) and NADH/NAD metabolite hydrolysis, little is known regarding its hydrolytic activity towards dinucleotide cap structures. In order to gain further insight into this Nudt12 activity, comprehensive analysis with a spectrum of cap-like dinucleotides was performed with respect to different nucleotide types adjacent to the (m7)G moiety and its methylation status. Among the tested compounds, GpppA, GpppAm, and Gpppm6Am were identified as novel potent Nudt12 substrates, with KM values in the same range as that of NADH. Interestingly, substrate inhibition of Nudt12 catalytic activity was detected in the case of the GpppG dinucleotide, a phenomenon not reported to date. Finally, comparison of Nudt12 with DcpS and Nud16, two other enzymes with known activity on dinucleotide cap structures, revealed their overlapping and more specific substrates. Altogether, these findings provide a basis for clarifying the role of Nudt12 in cap-like dinucleotide turnover.

Abstract
Dinucleoside polyphosphates, a class of nucleotides found amongst all the Trees of Life, have been gathering a lot of attention in the past decades due to their putative role as cellular alarmones. In particular, diadenosine tetraphosphate (AP4A) has been widely studied in bacteria facing various environmental challenges and has been proposed to be important for ensuring cellular survivability through harsh conditions. Here, we discuss the current understanding of AP4A synthesis and degradation, protein targets, their molecular structure where possible, and insights into the molecular mechanisms of AP4A action and its physiological consequences. Lastly, we will briefly touch on what is known with regards to AP4A beyond the bacterial kingdom, given its increasing appearance in the eukaryotic world. Altogether, the notion that AP4A is a conserved second messenger in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans and is able to signal and modulate cellular stress regulation seems promising.

Abstract
RNA ligases are present across all forms of life. While enzymatic RNA ligation between 5'-PO4 and 3'-OH termini is prevalent in viruses, fungi, and plants, such RNA ligases are yet to be identified in vertebrates. Here, using a nucleotide-based chemical probe targeting human AMPylated proteome, we have enriched and identified the hitherto uncharacterised human protein chromosome 12 open reading frame 29 (C12orf29) as a human enzyme promoting RNA ligation between 5'-PO4 and 3'-OH termini. C12orf29 catalyses ATP-dependent RNA ligation via a three-step mechanism, involving tandem auto- and RNA AMPylation. Knock-out of C12ORF29 gene impedes the cellular resilience to oxidative stress featuring concurrent RNA degradation, which suggests a role of C12orf29 in maintaining RNA integrity. These data provide the groundwork for establishing a human RNA repair pathway.

Abstract
Diadenosine polyphosphates (Apn As) are non-canonical nucleotides whose cellular concentrations increase during stress and are therefore termed alarmones, signaling homeostatic imbalance. Their cellular role is poorly understood. In this work, we assessed Apn As for their usage as cosubstrates for protein AMPylation, a post-translational modification in which adenosine monophosphate (AMP) is transferred to proteins. In humans, AMPylation mediated by the AMPylator FICD with ATP as a cosubstrate is a response to ER stress. Herein, we demonstrate that Ap4 A is proficiently consumed for AMPylation by FICD. By chemical proteomics using a new chemical probe, we identified new potential AMPylation targets. Interestingly, we found that AMPylation targets of FICD may differ depending on the nucleotide cosubstrate. These results may suggest that signaling at elevated Ap4 A levels during cellular stress differs from when Ap4 A is present at low concentrations, allowing response to extracellular cues.

Abstract
Magic Spot Nucleotides (MSN) regulate the stringent response, a highly conserved bacterial stress adaptation mechanism, enabling survival under adverse external challenges. In times of antibiotic crisis, a detailed understanding of stringent response is essential, as potentially new targets for pharmacological intervention could be identified. In this study, we delineate the MSN interactome in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium applying a family of trifunctional photoaffinity capture compounds. We introduce MSN probes covering a diverse phosphorylation pattern, such as pppGpp, ppGpp, and pGpp. Our chemical proteomics approach provides datasets of putative MSN receptors both from cytosolic and membrane fractions that unveil new MSN targets. We find that the activity of the non‐Nudix hydrolase ApaH is potently inhibited by pppGpp, which itself is converted to pGpp by ApaH. The capture compounds described herein will be useful to identify MSN interactomes across bacterial species.

The tumor-suppressive function of Fhit depends on the interaction with the alarmone diadenosine triphosphate (Ap3A), a noncanonical nucleotide whose concentration increases upon cellular stress. How the Fhit-Ap3A complex exerts its signaling function is unknown. Here, guided by a chemical proteomics approach employing a synthetic stable Fhit-Ap3A complex, we found that the Fhit-Ap3A complex, but not Fhit or Ap3A alone, impedes translation. Our findings provide a mechanistic model in which Fhit translocates from the nucleolus into the cytosol upon stress to form an Fhit-Ap3A complex. The Fhit-Ap3A complex impedes translation both in vitro and in vivo, resulting in reduced cell viability. Overall, our findings provide a mechanistic model by which the tumor suppressor Fhit collaborates with the alarmone Ap3A to regulate cellular proliferation.
