Abstract
Chloroplast-encoded multi-span thylakoid membrane proteins are crucial for photosynthetic complexes, yet the coordination of their biogenesis remains poorly understood. To identify factors that specifically support the cotranslational biogenesis of the reaction center protein D1 of photosystem (PS) II, we generated and affinity-purified stalled ribosome-nascent chain complexes (RNCs) bearing D1 nascent chains. Stalled RNCs translating the soluble ribosomal subunit uS2c were used for comparison. Quantitative tandem-mass spectrometry of the purified RNCs identified around 140 proteins specifically associated with D1 RNCs, mainly involved in protein and cofactor biogenesis, including chlorophyll biosynthesis, and other metabolic pathways. Functional analysis of STIC2, a newly identified D1 RNC interactor, revealed its cooperation with chloroplast protein SRP54 in the de novo biogenesis and repair of D1, and potentially other cotranslationally-targeted reaction center subunits of PSII and PSI. The primary binding interface between STIC2 and the thylakoid insertase Alb3 and its homolog Alb4 was mapped to STIC2's β-sheet region, and the conserved Motif III in the C-terminal regions of Alb3/4.

Abstract
The functionality of all metabolic processes in chloroplasts depends on a balanced integration of nuclear- and chloroplast-encoded polypeptides into the plastid's proteome. The chloroplast chaperonin machinery is an essential player in chloroplast protein folding under ambient and stressful conditions, with a more intricate structure and subunit composition compared to the orthologous GroEL/ES chaperonin of Escherichia coli. However, its exact role in chloroplasts remains obscure, mainly because of very limited knowledge about the interactors. We employed the competition immunoprecipitation method for the identification of the chaperonin's interactors in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Co-immunoprecipitation of the target complex in the presence of increasing amounts of isotope-labelled competitor epitope and subsequent mass spectrometry analysis specifically allowed to distinguish true interactors from unspecifically co-precipitated proteins. Besides known substrates such as RbcL and the expected complex partners, we revealed numerous new interactors with high confidence. Proteins that qualify as putative substrate proteins differ from bulk chloroplast proteins by a higher content of beta-sheets, lower alpha-helical conformation and increased aggregation propensity. Immunoprecipitations targeted against a subunit of the co-chaperonin lid revealed the ClpP protease as a specific partner complex, pointing to a close collaboration of these machineries to maintain protein homeostasis in the chloroplast.

Abstract
In Chlamydomonas (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii), the VESICLE-INDUCING PROTEIN IN PLASTIDS 1 and 2 (VIPP1 and VIPP2) play roles in the sensing and coping with membrane stress and in thylakoid membrane biogenesis. To gain more insight into these processes, we aimed to identify proteins interacting with VIPP1/2 in the chloroplast and chose proximity labeling (PL) for this purpose. We used the transient interaction between the nucleotide exchange factor CHLOROPLAST GRPE HOMOLOG 1 (CGE1) and the stromal HEAT SHOCK PROTEIN 70B (HSP70B) as test system. While PL with APEX2 and BioID proved to be inefficient, TurboID resulted in substantial biotinylation in vivo. TurboID-mediated PL with VIPP1/2 as baits under ambient and H2O2 stress conditions confirmed known interactions of VIPP1 with VIPP2, HSP70B, and the CHLOROPLAST DNAJ HOMOLOG 2 (CDJ2). Proteins identified in the VIPP1/2 proxiomes can be grouped into proteins involved in the biogenesis of thylakoid membrane complexes and the regulation of photosynthetic electron transport, including PROTON GRADIENT REGULATION 5-LIKE 1 (PGRL1). A third group comprises 11 proteins of unknown function whose genes are upregulated under chloroplast stress conditions. We named them VIPP PROXIMITY LABELING (VPL). In reciprocal experiments, we confirmed VIPP1 in the proxiomes of VPL2 and PGRL1. Our results demonstrate the robustness of TurboID-mediated PL for studying protein interaction networks in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas and pave the way for analyzing functions of VIPPs in thylakoid biogenesis and stress responses.

Abstract
Chaperones facilitate the folding of other ("client") proteins and can thus affect the adaptive evolution of these clients. Specifically, chaperones affect the phenotype of proteins via two opposing mechanisms. On the one hand, they can buffer the effects of mutations in proteins and thus help preserve an ancestral, premutation phenotype. On the other hand, they can potentiate the effects of mutations and thus enhance the phenotypic changes caused by a mutation. We study that how the bacterial Hsp90 chaperone (HtpG) affects the evolution of green fluorescent protein. To this end, we performed directed evolution of green fluorescent protein under low and high cellular concentrations of Hsp90. Specifically, we evolved green fluorescent protein under both stabilizing selection for its ancestral (green) phenotype and directional selection toward a new (cyan) phenotype. While Hsp90 did only affect the rate of adaptive evolution transiently, it did affect the phenotypic effects of mutations that occurred during adaptive evolution. Specifically, Hsp90 allowed strongly deleterious mutations to accumulate in evolving populations by buffering their effects. Our observations show that the role of a chaperone for adaptive evolution depends on the organism and the trait being studied.

Abstract
The folding of newly synthesized polypeptides requires the coordinated action of molecular chaperones. Prokaryotic cells and the chloroplasts of plant cells possess the ribosome-associated chaperone trigger factor, which binds nascent polypeptides at their exit stage from the ribosomal tunnel. The structure of bacterial trigger factor has been well characterized and it has a dragon-shaped conformation, with flexible domains responsible for ribosome binding, peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerization (PPIase) activity and substrate protein binding. Chloroplast trigger-factor sequences have diversified from those of their bacterial orthologs and their molecular mechanism in plant organelles has been little investigated to date. Here, the crystal structure of the plastidic trigger factor from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is presented at 2.6 Å resolution. Due to the high intramolecular flexibility of the protein, diffraction to this resolution was only achieved using a protein that lacked the N-terminal ribosome-binding domain. The eukaryotic trigger factor from C. reinhardtii exhibits a comparable dragon-shaped conformation to its bacterial counterpart. However, the C-terminal chaperone domain displays distinct charge distributions, with altered positioning of the helical arms and a specifically altered charge distribution along the surface responsible for substrate binding. While the PPIase domain shows a highly conserved structure compared with other PPIases, its rather weak activity and an unusual orientation towards the C-terminal domain points to specific adaptations of eukaryotic trigger factor for function in chloroplasts.

Abstract
Photosynthesis is a central determinant of plant biomass production, but its homeostasis is increasingly challenged by heat. Little is known about the sensitive regulatory principles involved in heat acclimation that underly the biogenesis and repair of chloroplast-encoded core subunits of photosynthetic complexes. Employing time-resolved ribosome and transcript profiling together with selective ribosome proteomics, we systematically deciphered these processes in chloroplasts of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We revealed protein biosynthesis and altered translation elongation as central processes for heat acclimation and showed that these principles are conserved between the alga and the flowering plant Nicotiana tabacum. Short-term heat exposure resulted in specific translational repression of chlorophyll a-containing core antenna proteins of photosystems I and II. Furthermore, translocation of ribosome nascent chain complexes to thylakoid membranes was affected, as reflected by the increased accumulation of stromal cpSRP54-bound ribosomes. The successful recovery of synthesizing these proteins under prolonged acclimation of nonlethal heat conditions was associated with specific changes of the co-translational protein interaction network, including increased ribosome association of chlorophyll biogenesis enzymes and acclimation factors responsible for complex assembly. We hypothesize that co-translational cofactor binding and targeting might be bottlenecks under heat but become optimized upon heat acclimation to sustain correct co-translational protein complex assembly.

Abstract
Chaperones are proteins that help other proteins fold. They also affect the adaptive evolution of their client proteins by buffering the effect of deleterious mutations and increasing the genetic diversity of evolving proteins. We study how the bacterial chaperone GroE (GroEL + GroES) affects the evolution of green fluorescent protein (GFP). To this end we subjected GFP to multiple rounds of mutation and selection for its color phenotype in four replicate E. coli populations, and studied its evolutionary dynamics through high-throughput sequencing and mutant engineering. We evolved GFP both under stabilizing selection for its ancestral (green) phenotype, and to directional selection for a new (cyan) phenotype. We did so both under low and high expression of the chaperone GroE. In contrast to previous work, we observe that GroE does not just buffer but also helps purge deleterious (fluorescence reducing) mutations from evolving populations. In doing so, GroE helps reduce the genetic diversity of evolving populations. In addition, it causes phenotypic heterogeneity in mutants with the same genotype, helping to enhance their fluorescence in some cells, and reducing it in others. Our observations show that chaperones can affect adaptive evolution in more than one way.

Abstract
While the composition and function of the major thylakoid membrane complexes are well understood, comparatively little is known about their biogenesis. The goal of this work was to shed more light on the role of auxiliary factors in the biogenesis of photosystem II (PSII). Here we have identified the homolog of LOW PSII ACCUMULATION 2 (LPA2) in Chlamydomonas. A Chlamydomonas reinhardtii lpa2 mutant grew slower in low light, was hypersensitive to high light, and exhibited aberrant structures in thylakoid membrane stacks. Chlorophyll fluorescence (Fv/Fm) was reduced by 38%. Synthesis and stability of newly made PSII core subunits D1, D2, CP43, and CP47 were not impaired. However, complexome profiling revealed that in the mutant CP43 was reduced to ~23% and D1, D2, and CP47 to ~30% of wild type levels. Levels of PSI and the cytochrome b6f complex were unchanged, while levels of the ATP synthase were increased by ~29%. PSII supercomplexes, dimers, and monomers were reduced to ~7%, ~26%, and ~60% of wild type levels, while RC47 was increased ~6-fold and LHCII by ~27%. We propose that LPA2 catalyses a step during PSII assembly without which PSII monomers and further assemblies become unstable and prone to degradation. The LHCI antenna was more disconnected from PSI in the lpa2 mutant, presumably as an adaptive response to reduce excitation of PSI. From the co-migration profiles of 1734 membrane-associated proteins, we identified three novel putative PSII associated proteins with potential roles in regulating PSII complex dynamics, assembly, and chlorophyll breakdown.

Abstract
In plant cells, chloroplast gene expression is predominantly controlled through post-transcriptional regulation. Such fine-tuning is vital for precisely orchestrating protein complex assembly as for the photosynthesis machinery and for quickly responding to environmental changes. While regulation of chloroplast protein synthesis is of central importance, little is known about the degree and nature of the regulatory network, mainly due to challenges associated with the specific isolation of transient ribosome interactors. Here, we established a ribosome affinity purification method, which enabled us to broadly uncover putative ribosome-associated proteins in chloroplasts. Endogenously tagging of a protein of the large or small subunit revealed not only interactors of the holo complex, but also preferential interactors of the two subunits. This includes known canonical regulatory proteins as well as several new proteins belonging to the categories of protein and RNA regulation, photosystem biogenesis, redox control and metabolism. The sensitivity of the here applied screen was validated for various transiently interacting proteins. We further provided evidence for the existence of a ribosome-associated Nα-acetyltransferase in chloroplasts and its ability to acetylate substrate proteins at their N-terminus. The broad set of ribosome interactors underscores the potential to regulate chloroplast gene expression on the level of protein synthesis.

De Geyter J, Portaliou AG, Srinivasu B, Krishnamurthy S, Economou A, Karamanou S. Trigger factor is a bona fide secretory pathway chaperone that interacts with SecB and the translocase. EMBO Rep 2020; 21:e49054. [PMID: 32307852 DOI: 10.15252/embr.201949054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacterial secretory preproteins are translocated across the inner membrane post-translationally by the SecYEG-SecA translocase. Mature domain features and signal peptides maintain preproteins in kinetically trapped, largely soluble, folding intermediates. Some aggregation-prone preproteins require chaperones, like trigger factor (TF) and SecB, for solubility and/or targeting. TF antagonizes the contribution of SecB to secretion by an unknown molecular mechanism. We reconstituted this interaction in vitro and studied targeting and secretion of the model preprotein pro-OmpA. TF and SecB display distinct, unsuspected roles in secretion. Tightly associating TF:pro-OmpA targets the translocase at SecA, but TF prevents pro-OmpA secretion. In solution, SecB binds TF:pro-OmpA with high affinity. At the membrane, when bound to the SecA C-tail, SecB increases TF and TF:pro-OmpA affinities for the translocase and allows pro-OmpA to resume translocation. Our data reveal that TF, a main cytoplasmic folding pathway chaperone, is also a bona fide post-translational secretory chaperone that directly interacts with both SecB and the translocase to mediate regulated protein secretion. Thus, TF links the cytoplasmic folding and secretion chaperone networks.

Abstract
Cells depend on the continuous renewal of their proteome composition during the cell cycle and in order to replace aberrant proteins or to react to changing environmental conditions. In higher eukaryotes, protein synthesis is achieved by up to five million ribosomes per cell. With the fast kinetics of translation, the large number of newly made proteins generates a substantial burden for protein homeostasis and requires a highly orchestrated cascade of factors promoting folding, sorting and final maturation. Several of the involved factors directly bind to translating ribosomes for the early processing of emerging nascent polypeptides and the translocation of ribosome nascent chain complexes to target membranes. In plant cells, protein synthesis also occurs in chloroplasts serving the expression of a relatively small set of 60–100 protein-coding genes. However, most of these proteins, together with nucleus-derived subunits, form central complexes majorly involved in the essential processes of photosynthetic light reaction, carbon fixation, metabolism and gene expression. Biogenesis of these heterogenic complexes adds an additional level of complexity for protein biogenesis. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about co-translationally binding factors in chloroplasts and discuss their role in protein folding and ribosome translocation to thylakoid membranes.

Abstract
Degradation of periplasmic proteins (Deg)/high temperature requirement A (HtrA) proteases are ATP-independent Ser endopeptidases that perform key aspects of protein quality control in all domains of life. Here, we characterized Chlamydomonas reinhardtii DEG1C, which together with DEG1A and DEG1B is orthologous to Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) Deg1 in the thylakoid lumen. We show that DEG1C is localized to the stroma and the periphery of thylakoid membranes. Purified DEG1C exhibited high proteolytic activity against unfolded model substrates and its activity increased with temperature and pH. DEG1C forms monomers, trimers, and hexamers that are in dynamic equilibrium. DEG1C protein levels increased upon nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus starvation; under heat, oxidative, and high light stress; and when Sec-mediated protein translocation was impaired. DEG1C depletion was not associated with any obvious aberrant phenotypes under nonstress conditions, high light exposure, or heat stress. However, quantitative shotgun proteomics revealed differences in the abundance of 307 proteins between a deg1c knock-out mutant and the wild type under nonstress conditions. Among the 115 upregulated proteins are PSII biogenesis factors, FtsH proteases, and proteins normally involved in high light responses, including the carbon dioxide concentrating mechanism, photorespiration, antioxidant defense, and photoprotection. We propose that the lack of DEG1C activity leads to a physiological state of the cells resembling that induced by high light intensities and therefore triggers high light protection responses.

Abstract
Biochemical processes in chloroplasts are important for virtually all life forms. Tight regulation of protein homeostasis and the coordinated assembly of protein complexes, composed of both imported and locally synthesized subunits, are vital to plastid functionality. Protein biogenesis requires the action of cotranslationally acting molecular chaperones. One such chaperone is trigger factor (TF), which is known to cotranslationally bind most newly synthesized proteins in bacteria, thereby assisting their correct folding and maturation. However, how these processes are regulated in chloroplasts remains poorly understood. We report here functional investigation of chloroplast-localized TF (TIG1) in the green alga (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii) and the vascular land plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). We show that chloroplastic TIG1 evolved as a specialized chaperone. Unlike other plastidic chaperones that are functionally interchangeable with their prokaryotic counterpart, TIG1 was not able to complement the broadly acting ortholog in Escherichia coli. Whereas general chaperone properties such as the prevention of aggregates or substrate recognition seems to be conserved between bacterial and plastidic TFs, plant TIG1s differed by associating with only a relatively small population of translating ribosomes. Furthermore, a reduction of plastidic TIG1 levels leads to deregulated protein biogenesis at the expense of increased translation, thereby disrupting the chloroplast energy household. This suggests a central role of TIG1 in protein biogenesis in the chloroplast.

Abstract
Microalgae are regarded as promising organisms to develop innovative concepts based on their photosynthetic capacity that offers more sustainable production than heterotrophic hosts. However, to realize their potential as green cell factories, a major challenge is to make microalgae easier to engineer. A promising approach for rapid and predictable genetic manipulation is to use standardized synthetic biology tools and workflows. To this end we have developed a Modular Cloning toolkit for the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. It is based on Golden Gate cloning with standard syntax, and comprises 119 openly distributed genetic parts, most of which have been functionally validated in several strains. It contains promoters, UTRs, terminators, tags, reporters, antibiotic resistance genes, and introns cloned in various positions to allow maximum modularity. The toolkit enables rapid building of engineered cells for both fundamental research and algal biotechnology. This work will make Chlamydomonas the next chassis for sustainable synthetic biology.

Abstract
Molecular chaperones alter the folding properties of cellular proteins via mechanisms that are not well understood. Here, we show that Trigger Factor (TF), an ATP-independent chaperone, exerts strikingly contrasting effects on the folding of non-native proteins as it transitions between a monomeric and a dimeric state. We used NMR spectroscopy to determine the atomic resolution structure of the 100 kDa dimeric TF. The structural data show that some of the substrate-binding sites are buried in the dimeric interface, explaining the lower affinity for protein substrates of the dimeric compared to the monomeric TF. Surprisingly, the dimeric TF associates faster with proteins and it exhibits stronger anti-aggregation and holdase activity than the monomeric TF. The structural data show that the dimer assembles in a way that substrate-binding sites in the two subunits form a large contiguous surface inside a cavity, thus accounting for the observed accelerated association with unfolded proteins. Our results demonstrate how the activity of a chaperone can be modulated to provide distinct functional outcomes in the cell.

Abstract
Chloroplast translation is essential for cellular viability and plant development. Its positioning at the intersection of organellar RNA and protein metabolism makes it a unique point for the regulation of gene expression in response to internal and external cues. Recently obtained high-resolution structures of plastid ribosomes, the development of approaches allowing genome-wide analyses of chloroplast translation (i.e., ribosome profiling), and the discovery of RNA binding proteins involved in the control of translational activity have greatly increased our understanding of the chloroplast translation process and its regulation. In this review, we provide an overview of the current knowledge of the chloroplast translation machinery, its structure, organization, and function. In addition, we summarize the techniques that are currently available to study chloroplast translation and describe how translational activity is controlled and which cis-elements and trans-factors are involved. Finally, we discuss how translational control contributes to the regulation of chloroplast gene expression in response to developmental, environmental, and physiological cues. We also illustrate the commonalities and the differences between the chloroplast and bacterial translation machineries and the mechanisms of protein biosynthesis in these two prokaryotic systems.
