YVH1 was one of the first eukaryotic dual specificity phosphatases cloned, and orthologues posses a unique C-terminal zinc-coordinating domain in addition to a cysteine-based phosphatase domain. Our recent results revealed that human YVH1 (hYVH1) protects cells from oxidative stress. This function requires phosphatase activity and the zinc binding domain. This current study provides evidence that the thiol-rich zinc-coordinating domain may act as a redox sensor to impede the active site cysteine from inactivating oxidation. Furthermore, using differential thiol labeling and mass spectrometry, it was determined that hYVH1 forms intramolecular disulfide bonds at the catalytic cleft as well as within the zinc binding domain to avoid irreversible inactivation during severe oxidative stress. Importantly, zinc ejection is readily reversible and required for hYVH1 activity upon returning to favorable conditions. This inimitable mechanism provides a means for hYVH1 to remain functionally responsive for protecting cells during oxidative stimuli.Human YVH1 (hYVH12; also known as DUSP12) is a member of the dual specificity phosphatase (DUSP) subfamily of protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) (1, 2). It is constructed of an N-terminal DUSP catalytic domain and a unique C-terminal zinc coordinating domain (3). Poor characterization and lack of mitogen-activated protein kinase targeting motifs further classify this enzyme as an atypical DUSP (1). YVH1 orthologues exhibit high evolutionary conservation and similar domain organization (3). Deletion of the yvh1 gene in yeast disrupts normal growth processes (4), whereas insertion and expression of the hyvh1 gene is capable of restoring a normal yeast growth phenotype (3). Amplification of the dusp12/hyvh1 gene has been reported in multiple sarcomas, implicating a role for hYVH1 in human disease (5–7).Recently, deletion studies from our laboratory have shown that the C-terminal zinc binding domain of hYVH1 is not essential for intrinsic phosphatase activity in vitro; however, it is required for interaction with the ATPase domain of heat shock protein 70 (8). Similarly, overexpression of wild type hYVH1 but not catalytically dead or zinc coordinating domain deletion mutants prevents cell death induced by Fas receptor activation, heat shock, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (8). Despite these findings, current information on hYVH1 enzymatic and physiological functions remains limited.PTPs and DUSPs share similar active site architecture and catalytic mechanism, characterized by the conserved HCX5R(S/T) motif (9, 10). The unique microenvironment within the HCX5R(S/T) motif reduces the pKa value of the active site cysteine, enhancing both nucleophilicity and oxidation susceptibility (11, 12). Stimulated or constituent generation of ROS can result in oxidative second messenger signaling responses capable of transient and reversible post-translational inactivation of both PTPs and DUSPs through oxidation of the catalytic cysteine (13–15).This oxidative susceptibility and modification varies among PTPs and DUSPs, a likely consequence of slight variations in active site conformations or mediated through unique regulatory domains (16–18). Accumulating evidence suggests that redox-mediated oxidation of PTPs is a dynamic modification that can differentially regulate PTPs (13, 19). Sulfenic acid, cyclic sulfenamide, and disulfide bond formation have all been shown to facilitate stable, reversible active site modifications among various PTPs and DUSPs (12, 14, 20). Furthermore, evidence suggests that oxidation predominantly and rapidly targets the active site cysteine, whereas other cysteinyl residues remain in the reduced state (15, 20).This study investigated the relationship between the zinc-coordinating C-terminal domain and the catalytic domain of hYVH1 during oxidative conditions. We provide data suggesting that the zinc binding domain can serve as a reducing agent during oxidative stress to impede the oxidation of the active site cysteine. Increased exposure to oxidative conditions readily induces disulfide bond formation within the zinc-coordinating and catalytic domains, resulting in concomitant zinc ejection and enzymatic inactivation. Zinc ejection is readily reversible and required for hYVH1 activity upon returning to reducing conditions. Thus, we propose a mechanism for phosphatase active site protection through the intrinsic redox buffering capacity of this unique zinc binding domain. 相似文献

Glycoprotein structure determination and quantification by MS requires efficient isolation of glycopeptides from a proteolytic digest of complex protein mixtures. Here we describe that the use of acids as ion-pairing reagents in normal-phase chromatography (IP-NPLC) considerably increases the hydrophobicity differences between non-glycopeptides and glycopeptides, thereby resulting in the reproducible isolation of N-linked high mannose type and sialylated glycopeptides from the tryptic digest of a ribonuclease B and fetuin mixture. The elution order of non-glycopeptides relative to glycopeptides in IP-NPLC is predictable by their hydrophobicity values calculated using the Wimley-White water/octanol hydrophobicity scale. O-linked glycopeptides can be efficiently isolated from fetuin tryptic digests using IP-NPLC when N-glycans are first removed with PNGase. IP-NPLC recovers close to 100% of bacterial N-linked glycopeptides modified with non-sialylated heptasaccharides from tryptic digests of periplasmic protein extracts from Campylobacter jejuni 11168 and its pglD mutant. Label-free nano-flow reversed-phase LC-MS is used for quantification of differentially expressed glycopeptides from the C. jejuni wild-type and pglD mutant followed by identification of these glycoproteins using multiple stage tandem MS. This method further confirms the acetyltransferase activity of PglD and demonstrates for the first time that heptasaccharides containing monoacetylated bacillosamine are transferred to proteins in both the wild-type and mutant strains. We believe that IP-NPLC will be a useful tool for quantitative glycoproteomics.Protein glycosylation is a biologically significant and complex post-translational modification, involved in cell-cell and receptor-ligand interactions (1–4). In fact, clinical biomarkers and therapeutic targets are often glycoproteins (5–9). Comprehensive glycoprotein characterization, involving glycosylation site identification, glycan structure determination, site occupancy, and glycan isoform distribution, is a technical challenge particularly for quantitative profiling of complex protein mixtures (10–13). Both N- and O-glycans are structurally heterogeneous (i.e. a single site may have different glycans attached or be only partially occupied). Therefore, the MS1 signals from glycopeptides originating from a glycoprotein are often weaker than from non-glycopeptides. In addition, the ionization efficiency of glycopeptides is low compared with that of non-glycopeptides and is often suppressed in the presence of non-glycopeptides (11–13). When the MS signals of glycopeptides are relatively high in simple protein digests then diagnostic sugar oxonium ion fragments produced by, for example, front-end collisional activation can be used to detect them. However, when peptides and glycopeptides co-elute, parent ion scanning is required to selectively detect the glycopeptides (14). This can be problematic in terms of sensitivity, especially for detecting glycopeptides in digests of complex protein extracts.Isolation of glycopeptides from proteolytic digests of complex protein mixtures can greatly enhance the MS signals of glycopeptides using reversed-phase LC-ESI-MS (RPLC-ESI-MS) or MALDI-MS (15–24). Hydrazide chemistry is used to isolate, identify, and quantify N-linked glycopeptides effectively, but this method involves lengthy chemical procedures and does not preserve the glycan moieties thereby losing valuable information on glycan structure and site occupancy (15–17). Capturing glycopeptides with lectins has been widely used, but restricted specificities and unspecific binding are major drawbacks of this method (18–21). Under reversed-phase LC conditions, glycopeptides from tryptic digests of gel-separated glycoproteins have been enriched using graphite powder medium (22). In this case, however, a second digestion with proteinase K is required for trimming down the peptide moieties of tryptic glycopeptides so that the glycopeptides (typically <5 amino acid residues) essentially resemble the glycans with respect to hydrophilicity for subsequent separation. Moreover, the short peptide sequences of the proteinase K digest are often inadequate for de novo sequencing of the glycopeptides.Glycopeptide enrichment under normal-phase LC (NPLC) conditions has been demonstrated using various hydrophilic media and different capture and elution conditions (23–28). NPLC allows either direct enrichment of peptides modified by various N-linked glycan structures using a ZIC®-HILIC column (23–27) or targeting sialylated glycopeptides using a titanium dioxide micro-column (28). However, NPLC is neither effective for enriching less hydrophilic glycopeptides, e.g. the five high mannose type glycopeptides modified by 7–11 monosaccharide units from a tryptic digest of ribonuclease b (RNase B), nor for enriching O-linked glycopeptides of bovine fetuin using a ZIC-HILIC column (23). The use of Sepharose medium for enriching glycopeptides yielded only modest recovery of glycopeptides (28). In addition, binding of hydrophilic non-glycopeptides with these hydrophilic media contaminates the enriched glycopeptides (23, 28).We have recently developed an ion-pairing normal-phase LC (IP-NPLC) method to enrich glycopeptides from complex tryptic digests using Sepharose medium and salts or bases as ion-pairing reagents (29). Though reasonably effective the technique still left room for significant improvement. For example, the method demonstrated relatively modest glycopeptide selectivity, providing only 16% recovery for high mannose type glycopeptides (29). Here we report on a new IP-NPLC method using acids as ion-pairing reagents and polyhydroxyethyl aspartamide (A) as the stationary phase for the effective isolation of tryptic glycopeptides. The method was developed and evaluated using a tryptic digest of RNase B and fetuin mixture. In addition, we demonstrate that O-linked glycopeptides can be effectively isolated from a fetuin tryptic digest by IP-NPLC after removal of the N-linked glycans by PNGase F.The new IP-NPLC method was used to enrich N-linked glycopeptides from the tryptic digests of protein extracts of wild-type (wt) and PglD mutant strains of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168. C. jejuni has a unique N-glycosylation system that glycosylates periplasmic and inner membrane proteins containing the extended N-linked sequon, D/E-X-N-X-S/T, where X is any amino acid other than proline (30–32). The N-linked glycan of C. jejuni has been previously determined to be GalNAc-α1,4-GalNAc-α1,4-[Glcβ1,3]-GalNAc-α1,4-GalNAc-α1,4-GalNAc-α1,3-Bac-β1 (BacGalNAc5Glc residue mass: 1406 Da), where Bac is 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxyglucopyranose (30). In addition, the glycan structure of C. jejuni is conserved, unlike in eukaryotic systems (30–32). IP-NPLC recovered close to 100% of the bacterial N-linked glycopeptides with virtually no contamination of non-glycopeptides. Furthermore, we demonstrate for the first time that acetylation of bacillosamine is incomplete in the wt using IP-NPLC and label-free MS. 相似文献

In this study, we report that the purified wild-type FANCI (Fanconi anemia complementation group I) protein directly binds to a variety of DNA substrates. The DNA binding domain roughly encompasses residues 200–1000, as suggested by the truncation study. When co-expressed in insect cells, a small fraction of FANCI forms a stable complex with FANCD2 (Fanconi anemia complementation group D2). Intriguingly, the purified FANCI-FANCD2 complex preferentially binds to the branched DNA structures when compared with either FANCI or FANCD2 alone. Co-immunoprecipitation with purified proteins indicates that FANCI interacts with FANCD2 through its C-terminal amino acid 1001–1328 fragment. Although the C terminus of FANCI is dispensable for direct DNA binding, it seems to be involved in the regulation of DNA binding activity. This notion is further enhanced by two C-terminal point mutations, R1285Q and D1301A, which showed differentiated DNA binding activity. We also demonstrate that FANCI forms discrete nuclear foci in HeLa cells in the absence or presence of exogenous DNA damage. The FANCI foci are colocalized perfectly with FANCD2 and partially with proliferating cell nuclear antigen irrespective of mitomycin C treatment. An increased number of FANCI foci form and become resistant to Triton X extraction in response to mitomycin C treatment. Our data suggest that the FANCI-FANCD2 complex may participate in repair of damaged replication forks through its preferential recognition of branched structures.Fanconi anemia (FA)3 is a genetic disorder characterized by chromosome instability, predisposition to cancer, hypersensitivity to DNA cross-linking agents, developmental abnormalities, and bone marrow failure (1–9). There are at least 13 distinct FA complementation groups, each of which is associated with an identified gene (2, 9, 10). Eight of them are components of the FA core complex (FANC A, B, C, E, F, G, L, and M) that is epistatic to the monoubiquitination of both FANCI and FANCD2, a key event to initiate interstrand cross-link (ICL) repair (2, 9, 11). Downstream of or parallel to the FANCI and FANCD2 monoubiquitination are the proteins involved in double strand break repair and breast cancer susceptibility (i.e. FANCD1/BRCA2, FANCJ/BRIP1, and FANCN/PALB2) (2, 9).FANCI is the most recently identified FA gene (11–13). FANCI protein is believed to form a FANCI-FANCD2 (ID) complex with FANCD2, because they co-immunoprecipitate with each other from cell lysates and their stabilities are interdependent of each other (9, 11, 13). FANCI and FANCD2 are paralogs to each other, since they share sequence homology and co-evolve in the same species (11). Both FANCI and FANCD2 can be phosphorylated by ATR/ATM (ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related/ataxia telangiectasia-mutated) kinases under genotoxic stress (11, 14, 15). The phosphorylation of FANCI seems to function as a molecular switch to turn on the FA repair pathway (16). The monoubiquitination of FANCD2 at lysine 561 plays a critical role in cellular resistance to DNA cross-linking agents and is required for FANCD2 to form damage-induced foci with BRCA1, BRCA2, RAD51, FANCJ, FANCN, and γ-H2AX on chromatin during S phase of the cell cycle (17–25). In response to DNA damage or replication stress, FANCI is also monoubiquitinated at lysine 523 and recruited to the DNA repair nuclear foci (11, 13). The monoubiquitination of both FANCI and FANCD2 depends on the FA core complex (11, 13, 26), and the ubiquitination of FANCI relies on the FANCD2 monoubiquitination (2, 11). In an in vitro minimally reconstituted system, FANCI enhances FANCD2 monoubiquitination and increases its specificity toward the in vivo ubiquitination site (27).FANCI is a leucine-rich peptide (14.8% of leucine residues) with limited sequence information to indicate which processes it might be involved in. Besides the monoubiquitination site Lys523 and the putative nuclear localization signals (Fig. 1A), FANCI contains both ARM (armadillo) repeats and a conserved C-terminal EDGE motif as FANCD2 does (11, 28). The EDGE sequence in FANCD2 is not required for monoubiquitination but is required for mitomycin C (MMC) sensitivity (28). The ARM repeats form α-α superhelix folds and are involved in mediating protein-protein interactions (11, 29). In addition, FANCI, at its N terminus, contains a leucine zipper domain (aa 130–151) that could be involved in mediating protein-protein or protein-DNA interactions (Fig. 1A) (30–33). FANCD2, the paralog of FANCI, was reported to bind to double strand DNA ends and Holliday junctions (34).Open in a separate windowFIGURE 1.Purified human FANCI binds to DNA promiscuously.

D, supershift assay. 1 nm of ssDNA was incubated with PBS (lane 1), 80 nm FANCI alone (lane 2), and 80 nm FANCI preincubated with a specific FANCI antibody (lane 3) in the condition described under “Experimental Procedures.”In order to delineate the function of FANCI protein, we purified the recombinant FANCI from the baculovirus expression system. In this study, we report the DNA binding activity of FANCI. Unlike FANCD2, FANCI binds to different DNA structures, including single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), 5′-tailed, 3′-tailed, splayed arm, 5′-flap, 3′-flap, static fork, and Holliday junction with preference toward branched structures in the presence of FANCD2. Our data suggest that the dynamic DNA binding activity of FANCI and the preferential recognition of branched structures by the ID complex are likely to be the mechanisms to initiate downstream repair events. 相似文献
