Update on the Distribution and Evolution of the Aldehyde UPDATE ON THE DISTRIBUTION AND EVOLUTION OF THE ALDEHYDE DEHYDROGENASE SUPERFAMILY IN VERTEBRATES AND BIOCHEMICAL AND POLYMORPHIC CHARACTERIZATION OF HUMAN ALDH1B1 by BRIAN CHRISTOPHER JACKSON B.S., University of California, Riverside 2004 M.S., University of Texas at Tyler, 2007 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Toxicology Program 2015 This thesis for the Doctor of Philosophy degree by Brian Christopher Jackson has been approved for the Toxicology Program by Dennis Petersen, Chair Vasilis Vasiliou, Advisor David Bain David Orlicky David Thompson Date 5/07/2015 ii Jackson, Brian Christopher (Ph.D., Toxicology) Update on the Distribution and Evolution of the Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Superfamily in Vertebrates and Biochemical and Polymorphic Characterization of Human ALDH1B1 Thesis directed by Professor Vasilis Vasiliou ABSTRACT The aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) superfamily is a group of enzymes that catalyze the NAD(P)+-dependent oxidation of a wide variety of endogenous and exogenous aldehydes to their corresponding carboxylic acids. This family is present in all taxonomic lineages studied, including archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes. As a torrent of new genomic data has become available over the past decade, there is now a need to organize and examine the evolution of this critical superfamily. To create a reference of the distribution and number of ALDHs in vertebrates, 11 representative species with completed genomes were examined and the full number of ALDHs was manually studied (Chapter II). One recently investigated gene, ALDH1B1 appeared to have a limited distribution and high similarity to ALDH2. This gene has received increased attention recently as a mediator of alcohol metabolism, growth and development, and as a biomarker and possibly key mediator of colon cancer. The complete known distribution of ALDH1B1 was investigated, as well as its evolutionary origins as a retrotransposition of ALDH2. In addition, it was shown that although ALDH1B1 has a unique pattern of expression and substrate specificity from ALDH2, they retain enough similarity that heterotetramerization (and possibly cross-regulation) may be feasible (Chapter III). From iii determining the distribution of ALDH1B1 and ALDH16A1 across phylogenies, in both cases frogs appeared to have unusual patterns of ALDH distributions. Since there was no frog representative in previous work, the full number of frog ALDHs was determined and full gene trees were created to examine the phylogenetic distribution of frog ALDHs. This also allowed deeper examination of the distribution and evolution of ALDHs. From this analysis it was determined rather than frogs being unusual, ALDH1B1 likely arose in the early vertebrate lineage and was subsequently lost in species other than frogs and mammals, and that a unique non-catalytic version of ALDH16A1 likely arose in fish, and was transferred to an early amniote ancestor (Chapter IV). This and other examples of evolution of ‘dead-enzymes’ within enzyme families led to the search for additional examples of non-catalytic ALDHs. 182 examples were found across all three kingdoms, which were divided into 19 groups based on protein sequence, with a large number of newly discovered records coming from bacteria and fungi (Chapter IV). Finally, the substrate specificity and effect of human polymorphisms of ALDH1B1 were investigated in depth, and it was found that ALDH1B1 likely plays a role in growth and development via retinaldehyde metabolism, and that this function may be disrupted by mutations prevalent in human populations, especially via the ALDH1B1*2 (A86V) mutation (Chapter V). This work together enhances our understanding of the distribution and evolutionary origins of the ALDH superfamily as a whole, and increases the understanding of the mechanisms of action of ALDH1B1 in particular. The form and content of this abstract are approved. I recommend its publication.

  • The Aldehyde Dehydrogenase ALDH2*2 Allele Exhibits Dominance Over ALDH2*1 in Transduced Hela Cells
    The aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH2*2 allele exhibits dominance over ALDH2*1 in transduced HeLa cells. Q Xiao, … , T Johnston, D W Crabb J Clin Invest. 1995;96(5):2180-2186. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI118272. Research Article Individuals heterozygous or homozygous for the variant aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) allele (ALDH2*2), which encodes a protein differing only at residue 487 from the normal protein, have decreased ALDH2 activity in liver extracts and experience cutaneous flushing when they drink alcohol. The mechanisms by which this allele exerts its dominant effect is unknown. To study this effect, the human ALDH2*1 cDNA was cloned and the ALDH2*2 allele was generated by site-directed mutagenesis. These cDNAs were transduced using retroviral vectors into HeLa and CV1 cells, which do not express ALDH2. The normal allele directed synthesis of immunoreactive ALDH2 protein (ALDH2E) with the expected isoelectric point. Extracts of these cells contained increased aldehyde dehydrogenase activity with low Km for the aldehyde substrate. The ALDH2*2 allele directed synthesis of mRNA and immunoreactive protein (ALDH2K), but the protein lacked enzymatic activity. When ALDH2*1-expressing cells were transduced with ALDH2*2 vectors, both mRNAs were expressed and immunoreactive proteins with isoelectric points ranging between those of ALDH2E and ALDH2K were present, indicating that the subunits formed heteromers. ALDH2 activity in these cells was reduced below that of the parental ALDH2*1-expressing cells. Thus, the ALDH2*2 allele is sufficient to cause ALDH2 deficiency in vitro.

Alternatively, gene set or pathway association analyses are playing an increasingly important role in uncovering genetic architectures of complex traits through the identification of systematic genetic interactions. Two dominant paradigms for gene set analyses are association analyses based on SNP genotypes and those based on gene expression profiles. However, gene-disease association can manifest in many ways such as alterations of gene expression, genotype and copy number, thus an integrative approach combining multiple forms of evidence can more accurately and comprehensively capture pathway associations. Methodology: We have developed a single statistical framework, Gene Set Association Analysis (GSAA), that simultaneously measures genome-wide patterns of genetic variation and gene expression variation

In this study, we investigated whether liver protein expression was altered after propofol, sevoflurane, or isoflurane anesthesia. We also investigated differences in the time course of each drug 24 and 72 h after anesthesia. Methods: Rats were randomly assigned to four groups (non-anesthetized group and three groups anesthetized at each time point, n = 6 per group). A venous catheter was inserted into the caudal vein of all rats. Rats were anesthetized with each agent for 6 h, and the liver was obtained immediately after anesthesia. Proteomic analysis was performed. Results: About 4200 spots in each gel were discriminated, and at least 2619 spots were matched. Using LC-MS/MS, we identified 47 spots for propofol, 45 spots for sevoflurane, and 21 spots for isoflurane that were differentially expressed (p < 0.05) 0 h after anesthesia. The numbers of altered proteins were 14 and 19 in the isoflurane and sevoflurane groups, respectively, 72 h after anesthesia, but alterations in 40 proteins were seen in the propofol group 72 h after anesthesia.

Results: Upon 168 patients whose expression level of ALDH1 family members were available. We found that the level of ALDH1A1correlated to the prognosis of AML by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) stratification but not in other ALDH1 members. Moreover, we got survival data from 160 AML patients in TCGA database. We found that high ALDH1A1 expression correlated to poor Overall Survival (OS), mostly in Fms-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 (FLT3) mutated group. HighALDH1A2 expression significantly correlated to poor OS in FLT3 wild type population but not in FLT3 mutated group. High ALDH1A3 expression significantly correlated to poor OS in FLT3 mutated group but not in FLT3 wild type group. There was no relationship between the OS of AML with the level of ALDH1B1, ALDH1L1 and ALDH1L2. Conclusion: The prognostic impacts were different in each ALDH1 family members, which needs further investigation.

Correspondence §Corresponding author: [email protected] (S.-Y.K.) §§Co-corresponding author: [email protected] (S.-S.H.) *These authors contributed equally to this work 1 Abstract Rationale: The activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1), an enzyme that catalyzes the lipid peroxidation of fatty aldehydes was found to be upregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). ALDH7A1 knockdown significantly reduced tumor formation in PDAC. We raised a question how ALDH7A1 contributes to cancer progression. Methods: To answer the question, the role of ALDH7A1 in energy metabolism was investigated by knocking down and knockdown gene in mouse model, because the role of ALDH7A1 has been reported as a catabolic enzyme catalyzing fatty aldehyde from lipid peroxidation to fatty acid. Oxygen consumption rate (OCR), ATP production, mitochondrial membrane potential, proliferation assay and immunoblotting were performed. In in vivo study, two human PDAC cell lines were used for pre-clinical xenograft model as well as spontaneous PDAC model of KPC mice was also employed for anti-cancer therapeutic effect.
