Abstract
Apicomplexa is a phylum of protist parasites, notable for causing life-threatening diseases including malaria, toxoplasmosis, cryptosporidiosis, and babesiosis. Apicomplexan pathogenesis is generally a function of lytic replication, dissemination, persistence, host cell modification, and immune subversion. Decades of research have revealed essential roles for apicomplexan protein kinases in establishing infections and promoting pathogenesis. Protein kinases modify their substrates by phosphorylating serine, threonine, tyrosine, or other residues, resulting in rapid functional changes in the target protein. Post-translational modification by phosphorylation can activate or inhibit a substrate, alter its localization, or promote interactions with other proteins or ligands. Deciphering direct kinase substrates is crucial to understand mechanisms of kinase signaling, yet can be challenging due to the transient nature of kinase phosphorylation and potential for downstream indirect phosphorylation events. However, with recent advances in proteomic approaches, our understanding of kinase function in Apicomplexa has improved dramatically. Here, we discuss methods that have been used to identify kinase substrates in apicomplexan parasites, classifying them into three main categories: i) kinase interactome, ii) indirect phosphoproteomics and iii) direct labeling. We briefly discuss each approach, including their advantages and limitations, and highlight representative examples from the Apicomplexa literature. Finally, we conclude each main category by introducing prospective approaches from other fields that would benefit kinase substrate identification in Apicomplexa.

Abstract
Over 600 E3 ligases in humans execute ubiquitination of specific target proteins in a spatiotemporal manner to elicit desired signaling effects. Here, we developed a ubiquitin-specific proximity-based labeling method to selectively biotinylate substrates of a given ubiquitin ligase. By fusing the biotin ligase BirA and an Avi-tag variant to the candidate E3 ligase and ubiquitin, respectively, we were able to specifically enrich bona fide substrates of a ligase using a one-step streptavidin pulldown under denaturing conditions. We applied our method, which we named Ub-POD, to the really interesting new gene (RING) E3 ligase RAD18 and identified proliferating cell nuclear antigen and several other critical players in the DNA damage repair pathway. Furthermore, we successfully applied Ub-POD to the RING ubiquitin ligase tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 and a U-box-type E3 ubiquitin ligase carboxyl terminus of Hsc70-interacting protein. We anticipate that our method could be widely adapted to all classes of ubiquitin ligases to identify substrates.

Abstract
Virus receptors determine the tissue tropism of viruses and have a certain relationship with the clinical outcomes caused by viral infection, which is of great importance for the identification of virus receptors to understand the infection mechanism of viruses and to develop entry inhibitor. Proximity labeling (PL) is a new technique for studying protein-protein interactions, but it has not yet been applied to the identification of virus receptors or co-receptors. Here, we attempt to identify co-receptor of SARS-CoV-2 by employing TurboID-catalyzed PL. The membrane protein angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) was employed as a bait and conjugated to TurboID, and a A549 cell line with stable expression of ACE2-TurboID was constructed. SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus were incubated with ACE2-TurboID stably expressed cell lines in the presence of biotin and ATP, which could initiate the catalytic activity of TurboID and tag adjacent endogenous proteins with biotin. Subsequently, the biotinylated proteins were harvested and identified by mass spectrometry. We identified a membrane protein, AXL, that has been functionally shown to mediate SARS-CoV-2 entry into host cells. Our data suggest that PL could be used to identify co-receptors for virus entry.

Abstract
The proximitome is defined as the entire collection of biomolecules spatially in the proximity of a biomolecule of interest. More broadly, the concept of the proximitome can be extended to the totality of cells proximal to a specific cell type. Since the spatial organization of biomolecules and cells is essential for almost all biological processes, proximitomics has recently emerged as an active area of scientific research. One of the growing strategies for proximitomics leverages reactive species-which are generated in situ and spatially confined, to chemically tag and capture proximal biomolecules and cells for systematic analysis. In this Outlook, we summarize different types of reactive species that have been exploited for proximitomics and discuss their pros and cons for specific applications. In addition, we discuss the current challenges and future directions of this exciting field.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is a prevalent and potentially life-threatening vascular disease, including both deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. This review will focus on recent insights into the heritable factors that influence an individual's risk for VTE. Here, we will explore not only the discovery of new genetic risk variants but also the importance of functional characterization of these variants. These genome-wide studies should lead to a better understanding of the biological role of genes inside and outside of the canonical coagulation system in thrombus formation and lead to an improved ability to predict an individual's risk of VTE. Further understanding of the molecular mechanisms altered by genetic variation in VTE risk will be accelerated by further human genome sequencing efforts and the use of functional genetic screens.

Abstract
Epigenetic regulation plays a pivotal role in various biological and disease processes. Two key lines of investigation have been pursued that aim to unravel endogenous epigenetic events at particular genes (probing) and artificially manipulate the epigenetic landscape (editing). The concept of induced proximity has inspired the development of powerful tools for epigenetic research. Induced proximity strategies involve bringing molecular effectors into spatial proximity with specific genomic regions to achieve the probing or manipulation of local epigenetic environments with increased proximity. In this review, we detail the development of induced proximity methods and applications in shedding light on the intricacies of epigenetic regulation.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a critical post-translational protein modification that affects folding, half-life and functionality. Glycosylation is a non-templated and heterogeneous process because of the promiscuity of the enzymes involved. We describe a platform for sequential glycosylation reactions for tailored sugar structures (SUGAR-TARGET) that allows bespoke, controlled N-linked glycosylation in vitro enabled by immobilized enzymes produced with a one-step immobilization/purification method. We reconstruct a reaction cascade mimicking a glycosylation pathway where promiscuity naturally exists to humanize a range of proteins derived from different cellular systems, yielding near-homogeneous glycoforms. Immobilized β-1,4-galactosyltransferase is used to enhance the galactosylation profile of three IgGs, yielding 80.2-96.3% terminal galactosylation. Enzyme recycling is demonstrated for a reaction time greater than 80 h. The platform is easy to implement, modular and reusable and can therefore produce homogeneous glycan structures derived from various hosts for functional and clinical evaluation.

Abstract
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious diseases. Recent advances in mass spectrometry (MS)-based protein interactomics have significantly expanded our understanding of the PPIs in cells, with techniques that continue to improve in terms of sensitivity, and specificity providing new opportunities for the study of PPIs in diverse biological systems. These techniques differ depending on the type of interaction being studied, with each approach having its set of advantages, disadvantages, and applicability. This review highlights recent advances in enrichment methodologies for interactomes before MS analysis and compares their unique features and specifications. It emphasizes prospects for further improvement and their potential applications in advancing our knowledge of PPIs in various biological contexts.

Abstract
RNA localization is highly regulated, with subcellular organization driving context-dependent cell physiology. Although proximity-based labelling technologies that use highly reactive radicals or carbenes provide a powerful method for unbiased mapping of protein organization within a cell, methods for unbiased RNA mapping are scarce and comparably less robust. Here we develop α-alkoxy thioenol and chloroenol esters that function as potent acylating agents upon controlled ester unmasking. We pair these probes with subcellular-localized expression of a bioorthogonal esterase to establish a platform for spatial analysis of RNA: bioorthogonal acylating agents for proximity labelling and sequencing (BAP-seq). We demonstrate that, by selectively unmasking the enol probe in a locale of interest, we can map RNA distribution in membrane-bound and membrane-less organelles. The controlled-release acylating agent chemistry and corresponding BAP-seq method expand the scope of proximity labelling technologies and provide a powerful approach to interrogate the cellular organization of RNAs.

Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is tightly connected to the lipid metabolism with lipid droplets (LDs) serving as assembly sites for progeny virions. A previous LD proteome analysis identified annexin A3 (ANXA3) as an important HCV host factor that is enriched at LDs in infected cells and required for HCV morphogenesis. To further characterize ANXA3 function in HCV, we performed proximity labeling using ANXA3-BioID2 as bait in HCV-infected cells. Two of the top proteins identified proximal to ANXA3 during HCV infection were the La-related protein 1 (LARP1) and the ADP ribosylation factor-like protein 8B (ARL8B), both of which have been previously described to act in HCV particle production. In follow-up experiments, ARL8B functioned as a pro-viral HCV host factor without localizing to LDs and thus likely independent of ANXA3. In contrast, LARP1 interacts with HCV core protein in an RNA-dependent manner and is translocated to LDs by core protein. Knockdown of LARP1 decreased HCV spreading without altering HCV RNA replication or viral titers. Unexpectedly, entry of HCV particles and E1/E2-pseudotyped lentiviral particles was reduced by LARP1 depletion, whereas particle production was not altered. Using a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)ΔG entry assay, we showed that LARP1 depletion also decreased entry of VSV with VSV, MERS, and CHIKV glycoproteins. Therefore, our data expand the role of LARP1 as an HCV host factor that is most prominently involved in the early steps of infection, likely contributing to endocytosis of viral particles through the pleiotropic effect LARP1 has on the cellular translatome.

Abstract
TurboID is a highly efficient biotin-labelling enzyme, which can be used to explore a number of new intercalating proteins due to the very transient binding and catalytic functions of many proteins. TGF-β/Smad3 signaling pathway is involved in many diseases, especially in diabetic nephropathy and inflammation. In this paper, a stably cell line transfected with Smad3 were constructed by using lentiviral infection. To further investigate the function of TGF-β/Smad3, the protein labeling experiment was conducted to find the interacting protein with Smad3 gene. Label-free mass spectrometry analysis was performed to obtain 491 interacting proteins, and the interacting protein hnRNPM was selected for IP and immunofluorescence verification, and it was verified that the Smad3 gene had a certain promoting effect on the expression of hnRNPM gene, and then had an inhibitory effect on IL-6. It lays a foundation for further study of the function of Smad3 gene and its involved regulatory network.

Abstract
ADAMTS13, a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13, regulates the length of Von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers and their platelet-binding activity. ADAMTS13 is constitutively secreted as an active protease and is not inhibited by circulating protease inhibitors. Therefore, the mechanisms that regulate ADAMTS13 protease activity are unknown. We performed an unbiased proteomics screen to identify ligands of ADAMTS13 by optimizing the application of BioID to plasma. Plasma BioID identified 5 plasma proteins significantly labeled by the ADAMTS13-birA* fusion, including VWF and plasminogen. Glu-plasminogen, Lys-plasminogen, mini-plasminogen, and apo(a) bound ADAMTS13 with high affinity, whereas micro-plasminogen did not. None of the plasminogen variants or apo(a) bound to a C-terminal truncation variant of ADAMTS13 (MDTCS). The binding of plasminogen to ADAMTS13 was attenuated by tranexamic acid or ε-aminocaproic acid, and tranexamic acid protected ADAMTS13 from plasmin degradation. These data demonstrate that plasminogen is an important ligand of ADAMTS13 in plasma by binding to the C-terminus of ADAMTS13. Plasmin proteolytically degrades ADAMTS13 in a lysine-dependent manner, which may contribute to its regulation. Adapting BioID to identify protein-interaction networks in plasma provides a powerful new tool to study protease regulation in the cardiovascular system.

Schreiber KJ, Kadijk E, Youn JY. Exploring Options for Proximity-Dependent Biotinylation Experiments: Comparative Analysis of Labeling Enzymes and Affinity Purification Resins. J Proteome Res 2024; 23:1531-1543.

Abstract
Proximity-dependent biotinylation (PDB) techniques provide information about the molecular neighborhood of a protein of interest, yielding insights into its function and localization. Here, we assessed how different labeling enzymes and streptavidin resins influence PDB results. We compared the high-confidence interactors of the DNA/RNA-binding protein transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 kDa (TDP-43) identified using either miniTurbo (biotin ligase) or APEX2 (peroxidase) enzymes. We also evaluated two commercial affinity resins for purification of biotinylated proteins: conventional streptavidin sepharose versus a new trypsin-resistant streptavidin conjugated to magnetic resin, which significantly reduces the level of contamination by streptavidin peptides following on-bead trypsin digestion. Downstream analyses involved liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry in data-dependent acquisition mode, database searching, and statistical analysis of high-confidence interactors using SAINTexpress. The APEX2-TDP-43 experiment identified more interactors than miniTurbo-TDP-43, although miniTurbo provided greater overlap with previously documented TDP-43 interactors. Purifications on sepharose resin yielded more interactors than magnetic resin in small-scale experiments using a range of magnetic resin volumes. We suggest that resin-specific background protein binding profiles and different lysate-to-resin ratios cumulatively affect the distributions of prey protein abundance in experimental and control samples, which impact statistical confidence scores. Overall, we highlight key experimental variables to consider for the empirical optimization of PDB experiments.

Abstract
Biotin (vitamin H or B7) is a coenzyme essential for all forms of life. Biotin has biological activity only when covalently attached to a few key metabolic enzyme proteins. Most organisms have only one attachment enzyme, biotin protein ligase (BPL), which attaches biotin to all target proteins. The sequences of these proteins and their substrate proteins are strongly conserved throughout biology. Structures of both the biotin ligase- and biotin-acceptor domains of mammals, plants, several bacterial species, and archaea have been determined. These, together with mutational analyses of ligases and their protein substrates, illustrate the exceptional specificity of this protein modification. For example, the Escherichia coli BPL biotinylates only one of the >4000 cellular proteins. Several bifunctional bacterial biotin ligases transcriptionally regulate biotin synthesis and/or transport in concert with biotinylation. The human BPL has been demonstrated to play an important role in that mutations in the BPL encoding gene cause one form of the disease, biotin-responsive multiple carboxylase deficiency. Promiscuous mutant versions of several BPL enzymes release biotinoyl-AMP, the active intermediate of the ligase reaction, to solvent. The released biotinoyl-AMP acts as a chemical biotinylation reagent that modifies lysine residues of neighboring proteins in vivo. This proximity-dependent biotinylation (called BioID) approach has been heavily utilized in cell biology.

Abstract
The nucleus controls cell growth and division through coordinated interactions between nuclear proteins and chromatin. Mutations that impair nuclear protein association with chromatin are implicated in numerous diseases. Covalent ligands are a promising strategy to pharmacologically target nuclear proteins, such as transcription factors, which lack ordered small-molecule binding pockets. To identify nuclear cysteines that are susceptible to covalent liganding, we couple proximity labeling (PL), using a histone H3.3-TurboID (His-TID) construct, with chemoproteomics. Using covalent scout fragments, KB02 and KB05, we identified ligandable cysteines on proteins involved in spindle assembly, DNA repair, and transcriptional regulation, such as Cys101 of histone acetyltransferase 1 (HAT1). Furthermore, we show that covalent fragments can affect the abundance, localization, and chromatin association of nuclear proteins. Notably, the Parkinson disease protein 7 (PARK7) showed increased nuclear localization and chromatin association upon KB02 modification at Cys106. Together, this platform provides insights into targeting nuclear cysteines with covalent ligands.

The Quantitative Biotinylproteomics Studies Reveal a WInd-Related Kinase 1 (Raf-Like Kinase 36) Functioning as an Early Signaling Component in Wind-Induced Thigmomorphogenesis and Gravitropism. Mol Cell Proteomics 2024; 23:100738. [PMID: 38364992 PMCID: PMC10951710 DOI: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2024.100738] [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: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Wind is one of the most prevalent environmental forces entraining plants to develop various mechano-responses, collectively called thigmomorphogenesis. Largely unknown is how plants transduce these versatile wind force signals downstream to nuclear events and to the development of thigmomorphogenic phenotype or anemotropic response. To identify molecular components at the early steps of the wind force signaling, two mechanical signaling-related phosphoproteins, identified from our previous phosphoproteomic study of Arabidopsis touch response, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MKK1) and 2 (MKK2), were selected for performing in planta TurboID (ID)-based quantitative proximity-labeling (PL) proteomics. This quantitative biotinylproteomics was separately performed on MKK1-ID and MKK2-ID transgenic plants, respectively, using the genetically engineered TurboID biotin ligase expression transgenics as a universal control. This unique PTM proteomics successfully identified 11 and 71 MKK1 and MKK2 putative interactors, respectively. Biotin occupancy ratio (BOR) was found to be an alternative parameter to measure the extent of proximity and specificity between the proximal target proteins and the bait fusion protein. Bioinformatics analysis of these biotinylprotein data also found that TurboID biotin ligase favorably labels the loop region of target proteins. A WInd-Related Kinase 1 (WIRK1), previously known as rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (Raf)-like kinase 36 (RAF36), was found to be a putative common interactor for both MKK1 and MKK2 and preferentially interacts with MKK2. Further molecular biology studies of the Arabidopsis RAF36 kinase found that it plays a role in wind regulation of the touch-responsive TCH3 and CML38 gene expression and the phosphorylation of a touch-regulated PATL3 phosphoprotein. Measurement of leaf morphology and shoot gravitropic response of wirk1 (raf36) mutant revealed that the WIRK1 gene is involved in both wind-triggered rosette thigmomorphogenesis and gravitropism of Arabidopsis stems, suggesting that the WIRK1 (RAF36) protein probably functioning upstream of both MKK1 and MKK2 and that it may serve as the crosstalk point among multiple mechano-signal transduction pathways mediating both wind mechano-response and gravitropism.

Abstract
Identifying proteins at organelle contact sites, such as mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAM), is essential for understanding vital cellular processes, yet challenging due to their dynamic nature. Here we report "OrthoID", a proteomic method utilizing engineered enzymes, TurboID and APEX2, for the biotinylation (Bt) and adamantylation (Ad) of proteins close to the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER), respectively, in conjunction with high-affinity binding pairs, streptavidin-biotin (SA-Bt) and cucurbit[7]uril-adamantane (CB[7]-Ad), for selective orthogonal enrichment of Bt- and Ad-labeled proteins. This approach effectively identifies protein candidates associated with the ER-mitochondria contact, including LRC59, whose roles at the contact site were-to the best of our knowledge-previously unknown, and tracks multiple protein sets undergoing structural and locational changes at MAM during mitophagy. These findings demonstrate that OrthoID could be a powerful proteomics tool for the identification and analysis of spatiotemporal proteins at organelle contact sites and revealing their dynamic behaviors in vital cellular processes.

Abstract
In this study, we investigate the intricate regulatory mechanisms underlying the circadian clock in Drosophila, focusing on the light-induced conformational changes in the cryptochrome (DmCry). Upon light exposure, DmCry undergoes conformational changes that prompt its binding to Timeless and Jetlag proteins, initiating a cascade crucial for the starting of a new circadian cycle. DmCry is subsequently degraded, contributing to the desensitization of the resetting mechanism. The transient and short-lived nature of DmCry protein-protein interactions (PPIs), leading to DmCry degradation within an hour of light exposure, presents a challenge for comprehensive exploration. To address this, we employed proximity-dependent biotinylation techniques, combining engineered BioID (TurboID) and APEX (APEX2) enzymes with mass spectrometry. This approach enabled the identification of the in vitro DmCry interactome in Drosophila S2 cells, uncovering several novel PPIs associated with DmCry. Validation of these interactions through a novel co-immunoprecipitation technique enhances the reliability of our findings. Importantly, our study suggests the potential of this method to reveal additional circadian clock- or magnetic field-dependent PPIs involving DmCry. This exploration of the DmCry interactome not only advances our understanding of circadian clock regulation but also establishes a versatile framework for future investigations into light- and time-dependent protein interactions in Drosophila.

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
Cells continuously fine-tune signaling pathway proteins to match nutrient and stress levels in their local environment by modifying intracellular proteins with O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) sugars, an essential process for cell survival and growth. The small size of these monosaccharide modifications poses a challenge for functional determination, but the chemistry and biology communities have together created a collection of precision tools to study these dynamic sugars. This review presents the major themes by which O-GlcNAc influences signaling pathway proteins, including G-protein coupled receptors, growth factor signaling, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, lipid sensing, and cytokine signaling pathways. Along the way, we describe in detail key chemical biology tools that have been developed and applied to determine specific O-GlcNAc roles in these pathways. These tools include metabolic labeling, O-GlcNAc-enhancing RNA aptamers, fluorescent biosensors, proximity labeling tools, nanobody targeting tools, O-GlcNAc cycling inhibitors, light-activated systems, chemoenzymatic labeling, and nutrient reporter assays. An emergent feature of this signaling pathway meta-analysis is the intricate interplay between O-GlcNAc modifications across different signaling systems, underscoring the importance of O-GlcNAc in regulating cellular processes. We highlight the significance of O-GlcNAc in signaling and the role of chemical and biochemical tools in unraveling distinct glycobiological regulatory mechanisms. Collectively, our field has determined effective strategies to probe O-GlcNAc roles in biology. At the same time, this survey of what we do not yet know presents a clear roadmap for the field to use these powerful chemical tools to explore cross-pathway O-GlcNAc interactions in signaling and other major biological pathways.

Abstract
Classical methods of investigating protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are generally performed in non-living systems, yet in recent years new technologies utilizing proximity labeling (PL) have given researchers the tools to explore proximal PPIs in living systems. PL has distinct advantages over traditional protein interactome studies, such as the ability to identify weak and transient interactions in vitro and in vivo. Most PL studies are performed on targets within the cell or on the cell membrane. We have adapted the original PL method to investigate PPIs within the extracellular compartment, using both BioID2 and TurboID, that we term extracellular PL (ePL). To demonstrate the utility of this modified technique, we investigate the interactome of the widely expressed matrisome protein tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP2). Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are a family of multi-functional proteins that were initially defined by their ability to inhibit the enzymatic activity of metalloproteinases (MPs), the major mediators of extracellular matrix (ECM) breakdown and turnover. TIMP2 exhibits a broad expression profile and is often abundant in both normal and diseased tissues. Understanding the functional transformation of matrisome regulators, like TIMP2, during the evolution of tissue microenvironments associated with disease progression is essential for the development of ECM-targeted therapeutics. Using carboxyl- and amino-terminal fusion proteins of TIMP2 with BioID2 and TurboID, we describe the TIMP2 proximal interactome. We also illustrate how the TIMP2 interactome changes in the presence of different stimuli, in different cell types, in unique culture conditions (2D vs 3D), and with different reaction kinetics (BioID2 vs. TurboID); demonstrating the power of this technique versus classical PPI methods. We propose that the screening of matrisome targets in disease models using ePL will reveal new therapeutic targets for further comprehensive studies.

Abstract
Receptor proteins, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), interact with other proteins in the extracellular region of the cell membrane to drive intracellular signalling. Therefore, analysis of extracellular protein-protein interactions (exPPIs) is important for understanding the biological function of receptor proteins. Here, we present an approach using a proximity biotinylation enzyme (AirID) fusion fragment of antigen binding (FabID) to analyse the proximity exPPIs of EGFR. AirID was C-terminally fused to the Fab fragment against EGFR (EGFR-FabID), which could then biotinylate the extracellular region of EGFR in several cell lines. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis indicated that many known EGFR interactors were identified as proximity exPPIs, along with many unknown candidate interactors, using EGFR-FabID. Interestingly, these proximity exPPIs were influenced by treatment with EGF ligand and its specific kinase inhibitor, gefitinib. These results indicate that FabID provides accurate proximity exPPI analysis of target receptor proteins on cell membranes with ligand and drug responses.

[PMID: 38111714 PMCID: PMC10727772 DOI: 10.1002/pld3.555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023]
Abstract
Proximity labeling was recently developed to detect protein-protein interactions and members of subcellular multiprotein structures in living cells. Proximity labeling is conducted by fusing an engineered enzyme with catalytic activity, such as biotin ligase, to a protein of interest (bait protein) to biotinylate adjacent proteins. The biotinylated protein can be purified by streptavidin beads, and identified by mass spectrometry (MS). TurboID is an engineered biotin ligase with high catalytic efficiency, which is used for proximity labeling. Although TurboID-based proximity labeling technology has been successfully established in mammals, its application in plant systems is limited. Here, we report the usage of TurboID for proximity labeling of FIP37, a core member of m6A methyltransferase complex, to identify FIP37 interacting proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana. By analyzing the MS data, we found 214 proteins biotinylated by GFP-TurboID-FIP37 fusion, including five components of m6A methyltransferase complex that have been previously confirmed. Therefore, the identified proteins may include potential proteins directly involved in the m6A pathway or functionally related to m6A-coupled mRNA processing due to spatial proximity. Moreover, we demonstrated the feasibility of proximity labeling technology in plant epitranscriptomics study, thereby expanding the application of this technology to more subjects of plant research.

Site-specific photo-crosslinking/cleavage for protein-protein interface identification reveals oligomeric assembly of lysosomal-associated membrane protein type 2A in mammalian cells. Protein Sci 2023; 32:e4823. [PMID: 37906694 PMCID: PMC10659947 DOI: 10.1002/pro.4823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023]
Abstract
Genetic code expansion enables site-specific photo-crosslinking by introducing photo-reactive non-canonical amino acids into proteins at defined positions during translation. This technology is widely used for analyzing protein-protein interactions and is applicable in mammalian cells. However, the identification of the crosslinked region still remains challenging. Here, we developed a new method to identify the crosslinked region by pre-installing a site-specific cleavage site, an α-hydroxy acid (Nε -allyloxycarbonyl-α-hydroxyl-l-lysine acid, AllocLys-OH), into the target protein. Alkaline treatment cleaves the crosslinked complex at the position of the α-hydroxy acid residue and thus helps to identify which side of the cleavage site, either closer to the N-terminus or C-terminus, the crosslinked site is located within the target protein. A series of AllocLys-OH introductions narrows down the crosslinked region. By applying this method, we identified the crosslinked regions in lysosomal-associated membrane protein type 2A (LAMP2A), a receptor of chaperone-mediated autophagy, in mammalian cells. The results suggested that at least two interfaces are involved in the homophilic interaction, which requires a trimeric or higher oligomeric assembly of adjacent LAMP2A molecules. Thus, the combination of site-specific crosslinking and site-specific cleavage promises to be useful for revealing binding interfaces and protein complex geometries.

Abstract
Profiling membrane proteins' interacting networks is crucial for understanding their regulatory mechanisms and functional characteristics, but it remains a challenging task. Here, by combining genetic incorporation of crosslinkers, tandem denatured purification, and proteomics, we added interaction partners for PD-L1, a cancer cell surface protein that inhibits T cell activity. The site-specifically incorporated crosslinker mediates the covalent capture of interactions under physiological conditions and enabled the PD-L1 complexes to withstand the harsh extraction conditions of membrane proteins. Subsequent experiments led to the identification of potential PD-L1 interaction candidates and verified membrane-associated progesterone receptor component 1 as a novel PD-L1 interaction partner in mammalian cells. Importantly, we demonstrated that PGRMC1 positively regulates PD-L1 expression by regulating GSK3β-mediated PD-L1 degradation in cancer cells. Furthermore, PGRMC1 knockdown results in dramatically enhanced T cell-mediated cytotoxicity in cancer cells. In conclusion, our study elucidated the interactome of PD-L1 and uncovered a new player in the PD-L1 regulation mechanism.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 193:1772-1796. [PMID: 37310689 PMCID: PMC10602608 DOI: 10.1093/plphys/kiad335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
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
Proximity labeling with genetically encoded enzymes is widely used to study protein-protein interactions in cells. However, the accuracy of proximity labeling is limited by a lack of control over the enzymatic labeling process. Here, we present a light-activated proximity labeling technology for mapping protein-protein interactions at the cell membrane with high accuracy and precision. Our technology, called light-activated BioID (LAB), fuses the two halves of the split-TurboID proximity labeling enzyme to the photodimeric proteins CRY2 and CIB1. We demonstrate, in multiple cell lines, that upon illumination with blue light, CRY2 and CIB1 dimerize, reconstitute split-TurboID and initiate biotinylation. Turning off the light leads to the dissociation of CRY2 and CIB1 and halts biotinylation. We benchmark LAB against the widely used TurboID proximity labeling method by measuring the proteome of E-cadherin, an essential cell-cell adhesion protein. We show that LAB can map E-cadherin-binding partners with higher accuracy and significantly fewer false positives than TurboID.

Abstract
Protein‒protein, protein‒RNA, and protein‒DNA interaction networks form the basis of cellular regulation and signal transduction, making it crucial to explore these interaction networks to understand complex biological processes. Traditional methods such as affinity purification and yeast two-hybrid assays have been shown to have limitations, as they can only isolate high-affinity molecular interactions under nonphysiological conditions or in vitro. Moreover, these methods have shortcomings for organelle isolation and protein subcellular localization. To address these issues, proximity labeling techniques have been developed. This technology not only overcomes the limitations of traditional methods but also offers unique advantages in studying protein spatial characteristics and molecular interactions within living cells. Currently, this technique not only is indispensable in research on mammalian nucleoprotein interactions but also provides a reliable approach for studying nonmammalian cells, such as plants, parasites and viruses. Given these advantages, this article provides a detailed introduction to the principles of proximity labeling techniques and the development of labeling enzymes. The focus is on summarizing the recent applications of TurboID and miniTurbo in mammals, plants, and microorganisms. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Arrested replication forks, when restarted by homologous recombination, result in error-prone DNA syntheses and non-allelic homologous recombination. Fission yeast RTS1 is a model fork barrier used to probe mechanisms of recombination-dependent restart. RTS1 barrier activity is entirely dependent on the DNA binding protein Rtf1 and partially dependent on a second protein, Rtf2. Human RTF2 was recently implicated in fork restart, leading us to examine fission yeast Rtf2's role in more detail. In agreement with previous studies, we observe reduced barrier activity upon rtf2 deletion. However, we identified Rtf2 to be physically associated with mRNA processing and splicing factors and rtf2 deletion to cause increased intron retention. One of the most affected introns resided in the rtf1 transcript. Using an intronless rtf1, we observed no reduction in RFB activity in the absence of Rtf2. Thus, Rtf2 is essential for correct rtf1 splicing to allow optimal RTS1 barrier activity.

Abstract
Intracellular protozoan parasites are responsible for wide-spread infectious diseases. These unicellular pathogens have complex, multi-host life cycles, which present challenges for investigating their basic biology and for discovering vulnerabilities that could be exploited for disease control. Throughout development, parasite proteomes are dynamic and support stage-specific functions, but detection of these proteins is often technically challenging and complicated by the abundance of host proteins. Thus, to elucidate key parasite processes and host-pathogen interactions, labeling strategies are required to track pathogen proteins during infection. Herein, we discuss the application of bioorthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging and proximity-dependent labeling to broadly study protozoan parasites and include outlooks for future applications to study Plasmodium, the causative agent of malaria. We highlight the potential of these technologies to provide spatiotemporal labeling with selective parasite protein enrichment, which could enable previously unattainable insight into the biology of elusive developmental stages.

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
There are many things that can be used to characterize a protein. Size, isoelectric point, hydrophobicity, structure (primary to quaternary), and subcellular location are just a few parameters that are used. The most important feature of a protein, however, is its function. While there are many experiments that can indicate a protein's role, identifying the molecules it interacts with is probably the most definitive way of determining its function. Owing to technology limitations, protein interactions have historically been identified on a one molecule per experiment basis. The advent of high throughput multiplexed proteomic technologies in the 1990s, however, made identifying hundreds and thousands of proteins interactions within single experiments feasible. These proteomic technologies have dramatically increased the rate at which protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are discovered. While the improvement in mass spectrometry technology was an early driving force in the rapid pace of identifying PPIs, advances in sample preparation and chromatography have recently been propelling the field. In this chapter, we will discuss the importance of identifying PPIs and describe current state-of-the-art technologies that demonstrate what is currently possible in this important area of biological research.

Abstract
DNAzymes have been limited in application by their low catalytic rates. Here, we evolved a new peroxidase DNAzyme mSBDZ-X-3 through a directed evolution method based on the capture of self-biotinylated DNA catalyzed by its intrinsic peroxidase activity. The mSBDX-X-3 DNAzyme has a parallel G-quadruplex structure and has more favorable catalytic properties than all previously reported peroxidase DNAzyme variants. We applied mSBDZ-X-3 in an aptamer-coupled proximity-based labeling proteomic assay to determine the proteins that bind to cell surface cancer biomarkers EpCAM and nucleolin. Confocal microscopy, western blot analysis, and LC-MS/MS showed that the hybrid DNAzyme aptamer-coupled proximity assay-labeled proteins associated with EpCAM and nucleolin within 6-12 min in fixed cancer cells. The labeled proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. This study provides a highly efficient peroxidase DNAzyme, a methodology for selection of such variants, and a method for its application in spatial proteomics using entirely nucleic acid-based tooling.

Abstract
Different brain cell types play distinct roles in brain development and disease. Molecular characterization of cell-specific mechanisms using cell type-specific approaches at the protein (proteomic) level can provide biological and therapeutic insights. To overcome the barriers of conventional isolation-based methods for cell type-specific proteomics, in vivo proteomic labeling with proximity-dependent biotinylation of cytosolic proteins using biotin ligase TurboID, coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) of labeled proteins, emerged as a powerful strategy for cell type-specific proteomics in the native state of cells without the need for cellular isolation. To complement in vivo proximity labeling approaches, in vitro studies are needed to ensure that cellular proteomes using the TurboID approach are representative of the whole-cell proteome and capture cellular responses to stimuli without disruption of cellular processes. To address this, we generated murine neuroblastoma (N2A) and microglial (BV2) lines stably expressing cytosolic TurboID to biotinylate the cellular proteome for downstream purification and analysis using MS. TurboID-mediated biotinylation captured 59% of BV2 and 65% of N2A proteomes under homeostatic conditions. TurboID labeled endolysosome, translation, vesicle, and signaling proteins in BV2 microglia and synaptic, neuron projection, and microtubule proteins in N2A neurons. TurboID expression and biotinylation minimally impacted homeostatic cellular proteomes of BV2 and N2A cells and did not affect lipopolysaccharide-mediated cytokine production or resting cellular respiration in BV2 cells. MS analysis of the microglial biotin-labeled proteins captured the impact of lipopolysaccharide treatment (>500 differentially abundant proteins) including increased canonical proinflammatory proteins (Il1a, Irg1, and Oasl1) and decreased anti-inflammatory proteins (Arg1 and Mgl2).

Abstract
Proteins are workhorses in the cell; they form stable and more often dynamic, transient protein-protein interactions, assemblies, and networks and have an intimate interplay with DNA and RNA. These network interactions underlie fundamental biological processes and play essential roles in cellular function. The proximity-dependent biotinylation labeling approach combined with mass spectrometry (PL-MS) has recently emerged as a powerful technique to dissect the complex cellular network at the molecular level. In PL-MS, by fusing a genetically encoded proximity-labeling (PL) enzyme to a protein or a localization signal peptide, the enzyme is targeted to a protein complex of interest or to an organelle, allowing labeling of proximity proteins within a zoom radius. These biotinylated proteins can then be captured by streptavidin beads and identified and quantified by mass spectrometry. Recently engineered PL enzymes such as TurboID have a much-improved enzymatic activity, enabling spatiotemporal mapping with a dramatically increased signal-to-noise ratio. PL-MS has revolutionized the way we perform proteomics by overcoming several hurdles imposed by traditional technology, such as biochemical fractionation and affinity purification mass spectrometry. In this review, we focus on biotin ligase-based PL-MS applications that have been, or are likely to be, adopted by the plant field. We discuss the experimental designs and review the different choices for engineered biotin ligases, enrichment, and quantification strategies. Lastly, we review the validation and discuss future perspectives.

Abstract
Macromolecular interactions regulate all aspects of biology. The identification of interacting partners and complexes is important for understanding cellular processes, host-pathogen conflicts, and organismal development. Multiple methods exist to label and enrich interacting proteins in living cells. Notably, the soybean ascorbate peroxidase, APEX2, rapidly biotinylates adjacent biomolecules in the presence of biotin-phenol and hydrogen peroxide. However, during initial experiments with this system, we found that APEX2 exhibits a cytoplasmic-biased localization and is sensitive to the nuclear export inhibitor leptomycin B (LMB). This led us to identify a putative nuclear export signal (NES) at the carboxy-terminus of APEX2 (NESAPEX2), structurally adjacent to the conserved heme binding site. This putative NES is functional as evidenced by cytoplasmic localization and LMB sensitivity of a mCherry-NESAPEX2 chimeric construct. Single amino acid substitutions of multiple hydrophobic residues within NESAPEX2 eliminate cytoplasm-biased localization of both mCherry-NESAPEX2 as well as full-length APEX2. However, all but one of these NES substitutions also compromises peroxide-dependent labeling. This unique separation-of-function mutant, APEX2-L242A, is termed APEX3. Localization and functionality of APEX3 are confirmed by fusion to the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling transcriptional factor, RELA. APEX3 is therefore an optimized tool for unbiased proximity labeling of cellular proteins and interacting factors.

Abstract
We have previously identified mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) is required for caspase-3 nuclear translocation in the execution of apoptosis; however, little is known of the underlying mechanisms. Therefore, we sought to determine the role of kinase and nonkinase functions of MK2 in promoting nuclear translocation of caspase-3. We identified two non-small cell lung cancer cell lines for use in these experiments based on low MK2 expression. Wild-type, enzymatic and cellular localization mutant MK2 constructs were expressed using adenoviral infection. Cell death was evaluated by flow cytometry. In addition, cell lysates were harvested for protein analyses. Phosphorylation of caspase-3 was determined using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting and in vitro kinase assay. Association between MK2 and caspase-3 was evaluated using proximity-based biotin ligation assays and co-immunoprecipitation. Overexpression of MK2 resulted in nuclear translocation of caspase-3 and caspase-3-mediated apoptosis. MK2 directly phosphorylates caspase-3; however, phosphorylation status of caspase-3 or MK2-dependent phosphorylation of caspase-3 did not alter caspase-3 activity. The enzymatic function of MK2 was dispensable in nuclear translocation of caspase-3. MK2 and caspase-3 associated together and a nonenzymatic function of MK2, chaperoned nuclear trafficking, is required for caspase-3-mediated apoptosis. Taken together, our results demonstrate a nonenzymatic role for MK2 in the nuclear translocation of caspase-3. Furthermore, MK2 may function as a molecular switch in regulating the transition between the cytosolic and nuclear functions of caspase-3.

Abstract
Studying dynamic biological processes requires approaches compatible with the lifetimes of the biochemical transactions under investigation, which can be very short. We describe a genetically encoded system that allows protein neighborhoods to be mapped using visible light. Our approach involves fusing an engineered flavoprotein to a protein of interest. Brief excitation of the fusion protein leads to the labeling of nearby proteins with cell-permeable probes. Mechanistic studies reveal different labeling pathways are operational depending on the nature of the exogenous probe that is employed. When combined with quantitative proteomics, this photoproximity labeling system generates "snapshots" of protein territories with high temporal and spatial resolution. The intrinsic fluorescence of the fusion domain permits correlated imaging and proteomics analyses, a capability that is exploited in several contexts, including defining the protein clients of the major vault protein. The technology should be broadly useful in the biomedical area.

Abstract
Calmodulin (CaM) is known to function as a central signal transducer in calcium-mediated intracellular pathways. In this study, a fusion molecule of a recently developed proximity biotinylation enzyme (AirID) with rat CaM (AirID-CaM) was expressed and purified to near homogeneity using an E. coli expression system to examine the physical interactions between CaM and its target proteins by converting the interaction to biotinylation of CaM targets under nondenatured conditions. AirID-CaM catalyzed a Ca2+-dependent biotinylation of a target protein kinase (Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase kinase α/1, CaMKKα/1) in vitro, which was suppressed by the addition of excess amounts of CaM, and AirID alone did not catalyze the biotinylation of CaMKKα/1, indicating that the biotinylation of CaMKKα/1 by AirID-CaM likely occurs in an interaction-dependent manner. Furthermore, we also observed the Ca2+-dependent biotinylation of GST-CaMKIα and GST-CaMKIV by AirID-CaM, suggesting that AirID-CaM can be useful for the rapid detection of CaM/target interactions with relatively high sensitivity.

Abstract
Interorgan communication networks are key regulators of organismal homeostasis, and their dysregulation is associated with a variety of pathologies. While mass spectrometry proteomics identifies circulating proteins and can correlate their abundance with disease phenotypes, the tissues of origin and destinations of these secreted proteins remain largely unknown. In vitro approaches to study protein secretion are valuable, however, they may not mimic the complexity of in vivo environments. More recently, the development of engineered promiscuous BirA* biotin ligase derivatives has enabled tissue-specific tagging of cellular secreted proteomes in vivo. The use of biotin as a molecular tag provides information on the tissue of origin and destination, and enables the enrichment of low-abundance hormone proteins. Therefore, promiscuous protein biotinylation is a valuable tool to study protein secretion in vivo.

Abstract
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small RNAs that play a conserved role in genome defense. The piRNA processing pathway is dependent on the sequestration of RNA precursors and protein factors in specific subcellular compartments. Therefore, a highly resolved spatial proteomics approach can help identify the local interactions and elucidate the unknown aspects of piRNA biogenesis. Herein, we performed TurboID proximity labeling to investigate the interactome of Zucchini (Zuc), a key factor of piRNA biogenesis in germline cells and somatic follicle cells of the Drosophila ovary. Quantitative mass spectrometry analysis of biotinylated proteins defined the Zuc-proximal proteome, including the well-known partners of Zuc. Many of these were enriched in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), where Zuc was specifically localized. The proximal proteome of Zuc showed a distinct set of proteins compared with that of Tom20, a representative OMM protein, indicating that chaperone function-related and endomembrane system/vesicle transport proteins are previously unreported interacting partners of Zuc. The functional relevance of several candidates in piRNA biogenesis was validated by derepression of transposable elements after knockdown. Our results present potential Zuc-interacting proteins, suggesting unrecognized biological processes.

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
The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a well-studied pathogenicity determinant of many bacteria through which effectors (T3Es) are translocated into the host cell, where they exercise a wide range of functions to deceive the host cell's immunity and to establish a niche. Here we look at the different approaches that are used to functionally characterize a T3E. Such approaches include host localization studies, virulence screenings, biochemical activity assays, and large-scale omics, such as transcriptomics, interactomics, and metabolomics, among others. By means of the phytopathogenic Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) as a case study, the current advances of these methods will be explored, alongside the progress made in understanding effector biology. Data obtained by such complementary methods provide crucial information to comprehend the entire function of the effectome and will eventually lead to a better understanding of the phytopathogen, opening opportunities to tackle it.

Abstract
Cells express hundreds of iron-dependent enzymes that rely on the iron cofactors heme, iron-sulfur clusters, and mono-or di-nuclear iron centers for activity. Cells require systems for both the assembly and the distribution of iron cofactors to their cognate enzymes. Proteins involved in the binding and trafficking of iron ions in the cytosol, called cytosolic iron chaperones, have been identified and characterized in mammalian cells. The first identified iron chaperone, poly C-binding protein 1 (PCBP1), has also been studied in mice using genetic models of conditional deletion in tissues specialized for iron handling. Studies of iron trafficking in mouse tissues have necessitated the development of new approaches, which have revealed new roles for PCBP1 in the management of cytosolic iron. These approaches can be applied to investigate use of other nutrient metals in mammals.

PLoS Pathog 2023; 19:e1011110. [PMID: 36689471 PMCID: PMC9894557 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1011110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that predominantly causes nosocomial and community-acquired lung infections. As a member of ESKAPE pathogens, carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa (CRPA) compromises the limited therapeutic options, raising an urgent demand for the development of lead compounds against previously-unrecognized drug targets. Biotin is an important cofactor, of which the de novo synthesis is an attractive antimicrobial target in certain recalcitrant infections. Here we report genetic and biochemical definition of P. aeruginosa BioH (PA0502) that functions as a gatekeeper enzyme allowing the product pimeloyl-ACP to exit from fatty acid synthesis cycle and to enter the late stage of biotin synthesis pathway. In relative to Escherichia coli, P. aeruginosa physiologically requires 3-fold higher level of cytosolic biotin, which can be attributed to the occurrence of multiple biotinylated enzymes. The BioH protein enables the in vitro reconstitution of biotin synthesis. The repertoire of biotin abundance is assigned to different mouse tissues and/or organ contents, and the plasma biotin level of mouse is around 6-fold higher than that of human. Removal of bioH renders P. aeruginosa biotin auxotrophic and impairs its intra-phagosome persistence. Based on a model of CD-1 mice mimicking the human environment, lung challenge combined with systemic infection suggested that BioH is necessary for the full virulence of P. aeruginosa. As expected, the biotin synthesis inhibitor MAC13772 is capable of dampening the viability of CRPA. Notably, MAC13772 interferes the production of pyocyanin, an important virulence factor of P. aeruginosa. Our data expands our understanding of P. aeruginosa biotin synthesis relevant to bacterial infectivity. In particular, this study represents the first example of an extracellular pathogen P. aeruginosa that exploits biotin cofactor as a fitness determinant, raising the possibility of biotin synthesis as an anti-CRPA target.

Abstract
Identification of both stable and transient interactions is essential for understanding protein function and regulation. While assessing stable interactions is more straightforward, capturing transient ones is challenging. In recent years, sophisticated tools have emerged to improve transient interactor discovery, with many harnessing the power of evolved biotin ligases for proximity labelling. However, biotinylation-based methods have lagged behind in the model eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, possibly due to the presence of several abundant, endogenously biotinylated proteins. In this study, we optimised robust biotin-ligation methodologies in yeast and increased their sensitivity by creating a bespoke technique for downregulating endogenous biotinylation, which we term ABOLISH (Auxin-induced BiOtin LIgase diminiSHing). We used the endoplasmic reticulum insertase complex (EMC) to demonstrate our approaches and uncover new substrates. To make these tools available for systematic probing of both stable and transient interactions, we generated five full-genome collections of strains in which every yeast protein is tagged with each of the tested biotinylation machineries, some on the background of the ABOLISH system. This comprehensive toolkit enables functional interactomics of the entire yeast proteome.

Abstract
Herein, we report a selection approach to enrich ligands from DNA-encoded libraries (DELs) based on proximity to an enzymatic tag on the target protein. This method involves uncaging or installation of a biotin purification tag on the DNA construct either through photodeprotection of a protected biotin group using a light emitting protein tag (nanoluciferase) or by acylation using an engineered biotin ligase (UltraID). This selection does not require purification of the target protein and results in improved recovery and enrichment of DNA-linked ligands. This approach should serve as a general and convenient tool for molecular discovery with DELs.

Abstract
Weak or transient protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are involved in a manifold of cellular processes in all living organisms, including plants. However, many of these interactions may remain undiscovered by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) approaches due to their low binding affinities or transitory nature. Enzyme-mediated proximity-dependent in vivo biotin labeling can be a powerful strategy to efficiently capture weak and transient PPIs and has been successfully applied in different model angiosperm species. Here, we provide an optimized and robust protocol for biotin ligase-mediated proximity labeling for interactome mapping in the model liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.

Impact of inherent biases built into proteomic techniques: Proximity labeling and affinity capture compared. J Biol Chem 2022; 299:102726.

Abstract
The characterization of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is of high value for understanding protein function. Two strategies are popular for identification of PPIs direct from the cellular environment: affinity capture (pulldown) isolates the protein of interest with an immobilized matrix that specifically captures the target and potential partners, whereas in BioID, genetic fusion of biotin ligase facilitates proximity biotinylation, and labeled proteins are isolated with streptavidin. Whilst both methods provide valuable insights, they can reveal distinct PPIs, but the basis for these differences is less obvious. Here, we compare both methods using four different trypanosome proteins as baits: poly(A)-binding proteins PABP1 and PABP2, mRNA export receptor MEX67, and the nucleoporin NUP158. With BioID, we found that the population of candidate interacting proteins decreases with more confined bait protein localization, but the candidate population is less variable with affinity capture. BioID returned more likely false positives, in particular for proteins with less confined localization, and identified low molecular weight proteins less efficiently. Surprisingly, BioID for MEX67 identified exclusively proteins lining the inner channel of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), consistent with the function of MEX67, whereas the entire NPC was isolated by pulldown. Similarly, for NUP158, BioID returned surprisingly few PPIs within NPC outer rings that were by contrast detected with pulldown but instead returned a larger cohort of nuclear proteins. These rather significant differences highlight a clear issue with reliance on a single method to identify PPIs and suggest that BioID and affinity capture are complementary rather than alternative approaches.

Abstract
T cells rapidly transition from a quiescent state into active proliferation and effector function upon exposure to cognate antigen. These processes are tightly controlled by signal transduction pathways that influence changes in chromatin remodeling, gene transcription, and metabolism, all of which collectively drive specific T cell memory or effector cell development. Dysregulation of any of these events can mediate disease and the past several years has shown unprecedented novel approaches to understand these events, down to the single-cell level. The massive explosion of sequencing approaches to assess the genome and transcriptome at the single cell level has transformed our understanding of T cell activation, developmental potential, and effector function under normal and various disease states. Despite these advances, there remains a significant dearth of information regarding how these events are translated to the protein level. For example, resolution of protein isoforms and/or specific post-translational modifications mediating T cell function remains obscure. The application of proteomics can change that, enabling significant insights into molecular mechanisms that regulate T cell function. However, unlike genomic approaches that have enabled exquisite visualization of T cell dynamics at the mRNA and chromatin level, proteomic approaches, including those at the single-cell level, has significantly lagged. In this review, we describe recent studies that have enabled a better understanding of how protein synthesis and degradation change during T cell activation and acquisition of effector function. We also highlight technical advances and how these could be applied to T cell biology. Finally, we discuss future needs to expand upon our current knowledge of T cell proteomes and disease.
