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. -

Heat Shock Proteins and Cardiovascular Disease
Physiology International, Volume 105 (1), pp. 19–37 (2018) DOI: 10.1556/2060.105.2018.1.4 Heat shock proteins and cardiovascular disease B Rodríguez-Iturbe1, RJ Johnson2 1Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas (IVIC-Zulia), Nephrology Service Hospital Universitario, Universidad del Zulia, Maracaibo, Venezuela 2Division of Renal Diseases and Hypertension, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, CO, USA Received: December 14, 2017 Accepted: February 15, 2018 The development of stress drives a host of biological responses that include the overproduction of a family of proteins named heat shock proteins (HSPs), because they were initially studied after heat exposure. HSPs are evolutionarily preserved proteins with a high degree of interspecies homology. HSPs are intracellular proteins that also have extracellular expression. The primary role of HSPs is to protect cell function by preventing irreversible protein damage and facilitating molecular traffic through intracellular pathways. However, in addition to their chaperone role, HSPs are immunodominant molecules that stimulate natural as well as disease-related immune reactivity. The latter may be a consequence of molecular mimicry, generating cross-reactivity between human HSPs and the HSPs of infectious agents. Autoimmune reactivity driven by HSPs could also be the result of enhancement of the immune response to peptides generated during cellular injury and of their role in the delivery of peptides to the major histocompatibility complex in antigen-presenting cells. In humans, HSPs have been found to participate in the pathogenesis of a large number of diseases. This review is focused on the role of HSPs in atherosclerosis and essential hypertension. Keywords: heat shock proteins, atherosclerosis, hypertension, HSP60, HSP70, chaperones and immunity Biology of Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) In 1962, Feruccio Ritossa (94) described puffiness in Drosophila salivary chromosomes and changes in gene expression in response to heat. -
The HSP70 Chaperone Machinery: J Proteins As Drivers of Functional Specificity
REVIEWS The HSP70 chaperone machinery: J proteins as drivers of functional specificity Harm H. Kampinga* and Elizabeth A. Craig‡ Abstract | Heat shock 70 kDa proteins (HSP70s) are ubiquitous molecular chaperones that function in a myriad of biological processes, modulating polypeptide folding, degradation and translocation across membranes, and protein–protein interactions. This multitude of roles is not easily reconciled with the universality of the activity of HSP70s in ATP-dependent client protein-binding and release cycles. Much of the functional diversity of the HSP70s is driven by a diverse class of cofactors: J proteins. Often, multiple J proteins function with a single HSP70. Some target HSP70 activity to clients at precise locations in cells and others bind client proteins directly, thereby delivering specific clients to HSP70 and directly determining their fate. In their native cellular environment, polypeptides are participates in such diverse cellular functions.

Ubiquitin-Dependent Folding of the Wnt Signaling Coreceptor LRP6
RESEARCH ARTICLE Ubiquitin-dependent folding of the Wnt signaling coreceptor LRP6 Elsa Perrody1†, Laurence Abrami1†, Michal Feldman1, Beatrice Kunz1, Sylvie Urbe´ 2, F Gisou van der Goot1* 1Global Health Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Fe´de´rale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland; 2Institute of Translational Medicine, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, United Kingdom Abstract Many membrane proteins fold inefficiently and require the help of enzymes and chaperones. Here we reveal a novel folding assistance system that operates on membrane proteins from the cytosolic side of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We show that folding of the Wnt signaling coreceptor LRP6 is promoted by ubiquitination of a specific lysine, retaining it in the ER while avoiding degradation. Subsequent ER exit requires removal of ubiquitin from this lysine by the deubiquitinating enzyme USP19. This ubiquitination-deubiquitination is conceptually reminiscent of the glucosylation-deglucosylation occurring in the ER lumen during the calnexin/ calreticulin folding cycle. To avoid infinite futile cycles, folded LRP6 molecules undergo palmitoylation and ER export, while unsuccessfully folded proteins are, with time, polyubiquitinated on other lysines and targeted to degradation. This ubiquitin-dependent folding system also controls the proteostasis of other membrane proteins as CFTR and anthrax toxin receptor 2, two poor folders involved in severe human diseases.

Received: 17 July 2020; Accepted: 26 August 2020; Published: 2 September 2020 Abstract: The 70 kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) is a stress-inducible protein that has been shown to protect the brain from various nervous system injuries. It allows cells to withstand potentially lethal insults through its chaperone functions. Its chaperone properties can assist in protein folding and prevent protein aggregation following several of these insults. Although its neuroprotective properties have been largely attributed to its chaperone functions, HSP70 may interact directly with proteins involved in cell death and inflammatory pathways following injury. -
