Smith, Liam Jackson, and Jeffrey S. Schorey Exosomes are extracellular vesicles of endocytic origin that function in intercellular communication. Our previous studies indicate that exosomes released from Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages contain soluble mycobacterial proteins. However, it was unclear how these secreted proteins were targeted to exosomes. In this study, we determined that exosome production by the murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7 requires the endosomal sorting complexes required for transport and that trafficking of mycobacterial proteins from phagocytosed bacilli to exosomes was dependent on protein ubiquitination. Moreover, soluble mycobacterial proteins, when added exogenously to RAW264.7 or human HEK293 cells, were endocytosed, ubiquitinated, and released via exosomes. This suggested that endocytosed proteins could be recycled from cells through exosomes. This hypothesis was supported using the tumor-associated protein He4, which, when endocytosed by RAW264.7 or HEK293 cells, was transported Downloaded from to exosomes in a ubiquitin-dependent manner. Our data suggest that ubiquitination is a modification sufficient for trafficking soluble proteins within the phagocytic/endocytic network to exosomes.

    CELLULAR AND PROCESS ENGINEERING TO IMPROVE MAMMALIAN MEMBRANE PROTEIN EXPRESSION By Su Xiao A dissertation is submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May 2015 © 2015 Su Xiao All Rights Reserved Abstract Improving the expression level of recombinant mammalian proteins has been pursued for production of commercial biotherapeutics in industry, as well as for biomedical studies in academia, as an adequate supply of correctly folded proteins is a prerequisite for all structure and function studies. Presented in this dissertation are different strategies to improve protein functional expression level, especially for membrane proteins. The model protein is neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), a hard-to- express G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). GPCRs are integral membrane proteins playing a central role in cell signaling and are targets for most of the medicines sold worldwide. Obtaining adequate functional GPCRs has been a bottleneck in their structure studies because the expression of these proteins from mammalian cells is very low. The first strategy is the adoption of mammalian inducible expression system. A stable and inducible T-REx-293 cell line overexpressing an engineered rat NTSR1 was constructed. 2.5 million Functional copies of NTSR1 per cell were detected on plasma membrane, which is 167 fold improvement comparing to NTSR1 constitutive expression. The second strategy is production process development including suspension culture adaptation and induction parameter optimization. A further 3.5 fold improvement was achieved and approximately 1 milligram of purified functional NTSR1 per liter suspension culture was obtained. This was comparable yield to the transient baculovirus- insect cell system.

  • Engineering Proteins with GFP: Study of Protein-Protein Interactions in Vivo, Protein Expression and Solubility
    Engineering Proteins with GFP: Study of Protein-Protein Interactions In vivo, Protein Expression and Solubility Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mohosin M. Sarkar, M. Sc. Graduate Program in Chemistry The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Thomas J. Magliery, Advisor Dennis Bong Ross E. Dalbey Christopher M. Hadad Copyright by Mohosin M. Sarkar 2009 Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) play a key role in most biological processes. Many of these interactions are necessary for cell survival. To understand the molecular mechanisms of biological processes, it is essential to study and characterize protein-protein interactions, identify interacting partners and protein interaction networks. There are a number of methods that have been developed to study protein-protein interactions in vitro and in vivo, such as yeast-2-hybrid, fluorescence resonance energy transfer, co-immunoprecipitation, etc. Split protein reassembly is an in vivo probe of protein interactions that circumvents some of the problems with yeast 2- hybrid (indirect interactions, false positives) and co-immunoprecipitation (loss of weak and transient interactions, decompartmentalization). Split GFP reassembly is especially attractive because the GFP chromophore forms spontaneously on protein folding in almost every cell type. However, existing split systems have limitations of evolving cellular fluorescence slowly (3-4 days), failure to evolve at all for some interactions, and also failure to work at a physiological temperature. Among different variants of GFP tested, we found that split folding-reporter GFP (frGFP, a hybrid of EGFP and GFPuv) evolves fluorescence much faster (24 - 30 h) with associating peptides and also evolves fluorescence for the RING domain BRCA1/BARD1 wild type pair.

The mechanism by which such regions promote misfolding remains controversial, the function of many repeat-containing proteins (RCPs) remains obscure, and the role (if any) of repeat regions remains to be determined. Here, a Web-accessible database of RCPs is presented. The distribution and evolution of RCPs that contain homopeptide repeats tracts are considered, and the existence of functional patterns investigated. Generally, it is found that while polyamino acid repeats are extremely rare in prokaryotes, several eukaryote putative homologs of prokaryote RCP—involved in important housekeeping processes—retain the repetitive region, suggesting an ancient origin for certain repeats.

Despite tremendous efforts to develop anti-cancer drugs based on HSPs, no HSP inhibitors have thus far reached the milestone of FDA approval. There remains an unmet need to further understand the functional roles of HSPs in cancer. Methods: We constructed the network for HSPs across ~ 10,000 tumor samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and ~ 10,000 normal samples from Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx), and compared the network disruption between tumor and normal samples. We then examined the associations between HSPs and cancer hallmarks and validated these associations from multiple independent high-throughput functional screens, including Project Achilles and DRIVE. Finally, we experimentally characterized the dual function effects of HSPs in tumor proliferation and metastasis. Results: We comprehensively analyzed the HSP expression landscape across multiple human cancers and revealed a global disruption of the co-expression network for HSPs. Through analyzing HSP expression alteration and its association with tumor proliferation and metastasis, we revealed dual functional effects of HSPs, in that they can simultaneously influence proliferation and metastasis in opposite directions.

HSP activity is influenced by a variety of factors including diet, microbial stimuli, environment and host immunity. The overexpression and down-regulation of HSPs is associated with various disease phenotypes, including the inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn’s disease (CD). While the precise etiology of CD remains unclear, many of the putative triggers also influence HSP activity. The development of different CD phenotypes therefore may be a result of the disease-modifying behavior of the environmentally-regulated HSPs. Understanding the role of bacterial and endogenous HSPs in host homeostasis and disease will help elucidate the complex interplay of factors. Furthermore, discerning the function of HSPs in CD may lead to therapeutic developments that better reflect and respond to the gut environment.
