Abstract
Tardigrades, microscopic animals that survive a broad range of environmental stresses, express a unique set of proteins termed tardigrade-specific intrinsically disordered proteins (TDPs). TDPs are often expressed at high levels in tardigrades upon desiccation, and appear to mediate stress adaptation. Here, we focus on the proteins belonging to the secreted family of tardigrade proteins termed secretory-abundant heat soluble ("SAHS") proteins, and investigate their ability to protect diverse biological structures. Recombinantly expressed SAHS proteins prevent desiccated liposomes from fusion, and enhance desiccation tolerance of E. coli and Rhizobium tropici upon extracellular application. Molecular dynamics simulation and comparative structural analysis suggest a model by which SAHS proteins may undergo a structural transition upon desiccation, in which removal of water and solutes from a large internal cavity in SAHS proteins destabilizes the beta-sheet structure. These results highlight the potential application of SAHS proteins as stabilizing molecules for preservation of cells.

Clark-Hachtel CM, Hibshman JD, De Buysscher T, Stair ER, Hicks LM, Goldstein B. The tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris dramatically upregulates DNA repair pathway genes in response to ionizing radiation. Curr Biol 2024; 34:1819-1830.e6. [PMID: 38614079 PMCID: PMC11078613 DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2024.03.019] [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: 09/29/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
Tardigrades can survive remarkable doses of ionizing radiation, up to about 1,000 times the lethal dose for humans. How they do so is incompletely understood. We found that the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris suffers DNA damage upon gamma irradiation, but the damage is repaired. We show that this species has a specific and robust response to ionizing radiation: irradiation induces a rapid upregulation of many DNA repair genes. This upregulation is unexpectedly extreme-making some DNA repair transcripts among the most abundant transcripts in the animal. By expressing tardigrade genes in bacteria, we validate that increased expression of some repair genes can suffice to increase radiation tolerance. We show that at least one such gene is important in vivo for tardigrade radiation tolerance. We hypothesize that the tardigrades' ability to sense ionizing radiation and massively upregulate specific DNA repair pathway genes may represent an evolved solution for maintaining DNA integrity.

Abstract
Arginine in a free-state and as part of peptides and proteins shows distinct tendency to form clusters. In free-form, it has been found useful in cryoprotection, as a drug excipient for both solid and liquid formulations, as an aggregation suppressor, and an eluent in protein chromatography. In many cases, the mechanisms by which arginine acts in all these applications is either debatable or at least continues to attract interest. It is quite possible that arginine clusters may be involved in many such applications. Furthermore, it is possible that such clusters are likely to behave as intrinsically disordered polypeptides. These considerations may help in understanding the roles of arginine in diverse applications and may even lead to better strategies for using arginine in different situations.

Abstract
Increasing temperature influences the habitats of various organisms, including microscopic invertebrates. To gain insight into temperature-dependent changes in tardigrades, we isolated storage cells exposed to various temperatures and conducted biochemical and ultrastructural analysis in active and tun-state Paramacrobiotus experimentalis Kaczmarek, Mioduchowska, Poprawa, & Roszkowska, 2020. The abundance of heat shock proteins (HSPs) and ultrastructure of the storage cells were examined at different temperatures (20 °C, 30 °C, 35 °C, 37 °C, 40 °C, and 42 °C) in storage cells isolated from active specimens of Pam. experimentalis. In the active animals, upon increase in external temperature, we observed an increase in the levels of HSPs (HSP27, HSP60, and HSP70). Furthermore, the number of ultrastructural changes in storage cells increased with increasing temperature. Cellular organelles, such as mitochondria and the rough endoplasmic reticulum, gradually degenerated. At 42 °C, cell death occurred by necrosis. Apart from the higher electron density of the karyoplasm and the accumulation of electron-dense material in some mitochondria (at 42 °C), almost no changes were observed in the ultrastructure of tun storage cells exposed to different temperatures. We concluded that desiccated (tun-state) are resistant to high temperatures, but not active tardigrades (survival rates of tuns after 24 h of rehydration: 93.3% at 20 °C, 60.0% at 35 °C, 33.3% at 37 °C, 33.3% at 40 °C, and 20.0% at 42 °C).

The major inducible small heat shock protein HSP20-3 in the tardigrade Ramazzottius varieornatus forms filament-like structures and is an active chaperone. Cell Stress Chaperones 2024; 29:51-65. [PMID: 38330543 PMCID: PMC10939073 DOI: 10.1016/j.cstres.2023.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
The tardigrade Ramazzottius varieornatus has remarkable resilience to a range of environmental stresses. In this study, we have characterised two members of the small heat shock protein (sHSP) family in R. varieornatus, HSP20-3 and HSP20-6. These are the most highly upregulated sHSPs in response to a 24 h heat shock at 35 0C of adult tardigrades with HSP20-3 being one of the most highly upregulated gene in the whole transcriptome. Both R. varieornatus sHSPs and the human sHSP, CRYAB (HSPB5), were produced recombinantly for comparative structure-function studies. HSP20-3 exhibited a superior chaperone activity than human CRYAB in a heat-induced protein aggregation assay. Both tardigrade sHSPs also formed larger oligomers than CRYAB as assessed by size exclusion chromatography and transmission electron microscopy of negatively stained samples. Whilst both HSP20-3 and HSP20-6 formed particles that were variable in size and larger than the particles formed by CRYAB, only HSP20-3 formed filament-like structures. The particles and filament-like structures formed by HSP20-3 appear inter-related as the filament-like structures often had particles located at their ends. Sequence analyses identified two unique features; an insertion in the middle region of the N-terminal domain (NTD) and preceding the critical-sequence identified in CRYAB, as well as a repeated QNTN-motif located in the C-terminal domain of HSP20-3. The NTD insertion is expected to affect protein-protein interactions and subunit oligomerisation. Removal of the repeated QNTN-motif abolished HSP20-3 chaperone activity and also affected the assembly of the filament-like structures. We discuss the potential contribution of HSP20-3 to protein condensate formation.

Cell Stress Chaperones 2023; 28:689-696. [PMID: 37910345 PMCID: PMC10746692 DOI: 10.1007/s12192-023-01392-3] [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: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Inclusion body-associated proteins IbpA and IbpB of MW 16 KDa are the two small heat-shock proteins (sHSPs) of Escherichia coli, and they have only holding, but not folding, chaperone activity. In vitro holdase activity of IbpB is more than that of IbpA, and in combination, they synergise. Both IbpA and IbpB monomers first form homodimers, which as building blocks subsequently oligomerize to make heavy oligomers with MW of MDa range; for IbpB, the MW range of heavy oligomers is 2.0-3.0 MDa, whereas for IbpA oligomers, the values in MDa are not so specified/reported. By temperature upshift, such large oligomers of IbpB, but not of IbpA, dissociate to make relatively small oligomeric assemblies of MW around 600-700KDa. The larger oligomers of IbpB are assumed to be inactive storage form, which on facing heat or oxidative stress dissociate into smaller oligomers of ATP-independent holding chaperone activity. These smaller oligomers bind with stress-induced partially denatured/unfolded and thereby going to be aggregated proteins, to give them protection against permanent damage and aggregation. On withdrawal of stress, IbpB transfers the bound substrate protein to the ATP-dependent bi-chaperone system DnaKJE-ClpB, having both holdase and foldase properties, to finally refold the protein. Of the two sHSPs IbpA and IbpB of E. coli, this review covers the recent advances in research on IbpB only.

Abstract
The Fourth Cell Stress Society International workshop on small heat shock proteins (sHSPs), a follow-up to successful workshops held in 2014, 2016 and 2018, took place as a virtual meeting on the 17-18 November 2022. The meeting was designed to provide an opportunity for those working on sHSPs to reconnect and discuss their latest work. The diversity of research in the sHSP field is reflected in the breadth of topics covered in the talks presented at this meeting. Here we summarise the presentations at this meeting and provide some perspectives on exciting future topics to be addressed in the field.

Abstract
During aging, animals experience a decline in proteostasis activity, including loss of stress-response activation, culminating in the accumulation of misfolded proteins and toxic aggregates, which are causal in the onset of some chronic diseases. Finding genetic and pharmaceutical treatments that can increase organismal proteostasis and lengthen life is an ongoing goal of current research. The regulation of stress responses by cell non-autonomous mechanisms appears to be a potent way to impact organismal healthspan. In this Review, we cover recent findings in the intersection of proteostasis and aging, with a special focus on articles and preprints published between November 2021 and October 2022. A significant number of papers published during this time increased our understanding of how cells communicate with each other during proteotoxic stress. Finally, we also draw attention to emerging datasets that can be explored to generate new hypotheses that explain age-related proteostasis collapse.
