Our lab studies how natural genetic variations affect common diseases using a mouse population called hybrid mouse diversity panel (HMDP). In this study, we have explored the genetic regulation of mitochondrial pathways and their contribution to heart function using an integrative proteomics approach. We first performed a whole heart proteomic analysis in the HMDP (72 strains, n=2-3 mice) and surveyed mitochondrial localization using MitoCarta2.0. We retrieved 840 of these proteins (quantified in ≥50 strains) and performed high-resolution association mapping on their respective abundance levels to the HMDP genotypes. Our analyses identified three genetic loci, located on chromosome (chr) 7, chr13 and chr17, that control distinct classes of mitochondrial proteins as well as heart hypertrophy. Follow-up high resolution regional mapping identified NDUFS4, LRPPRC and COQ7 as the candidate genes for chr13, chr17 and chr7 loci, respectively. All three are associated with heart mass in two independent heart stress models, namely, isoproterenol (ISO)-induced heart failure and diet-induced obesity (DIO) models. Next, to identify the aspects of mitochondrial metabolism regulated by these loci, we constructed co-expression protein networks using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and identified five modules. Eigengenes, representing the first principal component of two of these modules (Brown and Green), mapped to the same regions as the chr13 and chr17 loci, respectively. DAVID enrichment analyses revealed that the Brown module (72 proteins, 96% overlap with chr13) was highly enriched for complex-I proteins (35 proteins, P = 8.8E-74) and the Green module (44 proteins, 73% overlap with chr17) for mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (25 proteins, P = 1.3E-53). The proteins in the chr7 locus were found primarily in the Turquoise module (393 proteins, 81% overlap) but this module was not enriched for any single mitochondrial protein complex. In summary, we now report the identification of three genetic loci that control distinct classes of mitochondrial proteins as well as heart hypertrophy. Our results provide strong support for a role of the mitochondrial proteome in heart pathophysiology.

SummaryWe used BioID, a proximity-dependent biotinylation assay, to interrogate 100 mitochondrial baits from all mitochondrial sub-compartments to create a high resolution human mitochondrial proximity interaction network. We identified 1465 proteins, producing 15626 unique high confidence proximity interactions. Of these, 528 proteins were previously annotated as mitochondrial, nearly half of the mitochondrial proteome defined by Mitocarta 2.0. Bait-bait analysis showed a clear separation of mitochondrial compartments, and correlation analysis among preys across all baits allowed us to identify functional clusters involved in diverse mitochondrial functions, and to assign uncharacterized proteins to specific modules. We demonstrate that this analysis can assign isoforms of the same mitochondrial protein to different mitochondrial sub-compartments, and show that some proteins may have multiple cellular locations. Outer membrane baits showed specific proximity interactions with cytosolic proteins and proteins in other organellar membranes, suggesting specialization of proteins responsible for contact site formation between mitochondria and individual organelles. This proximity network will be a valuable resource for exploring the biology of uncharacterized mitochondrial proteins, the interactions of mitochondria with other cellular organelles, and will provide a framework to interpret alterations in sub-mitochondrial environments associated with mitochondrial disease.Bullet pointsWe created a high resolution human mitochondrial protein proximity map using BioIDBait-bait analysis showed that the map has sub-compartment resolution and correlation analysis of preys identified functional clusters and assigned proteins to specific modulesWe identified isoforms of matrix and IMS proteins with multiple cellular localizations and an endonuclease that localizes to both the matrix and the OMMOMM baits showed specific interactions with non-mitochondrial proteins reflecting organellar contact sites and protein dual localization

AbstractPlasmodium species have a single mitochondrion that is essential for their survival and has been successfully targeted by anti-malarial drugs. Most proteins are imported into this organelle and our picture of the Plasmodium mitochondrial proteome remains incomplete. Many data sources contain information about mitochondrial localization, including proteome and gene expression profiles, orthology to mitochondrial proteins from other species, co-evolutionary relationships, and amino acid sequences, each with different coverage and reliability. To obtain a comprehensive, prioritized list of Plasmodium falciparum mitochondrial proteins, we rigorously analyzed and integrated eight datasets using Bayesian statistics into a predictive score per protein for mitochondrial localization. At a corrected false discovery rate of 25%, we identified 295 proteins with a sensitivity of 65% and a specificity of 98%. They include proteins that have not been identified as mitochondrial in other eukaryotes but have characterized homologs in bacteria that are involved in metabolism or translation. Mitochondrial localization of seven Plasmodium berghei orthologs was confirmed by epitope labeling and co-localization with a mitochondrial marker protein. One of these belongs to a newly identified apicomplexan mitochondrial protein family that in P. falciparum has four members. With the experimentally validated mitochondrial proteins and the complete ranked P. falciparum proteome, which we have named PlasmoMitoCarta, we present a resource to study unique proteins of Plasmodium mitochondria.

Mitochondrial Proteome

Mitochondria are essential organelles which perform complex and varied functions within eukaryotic cells. Maintenance of mitochondrial health and functionality is thus a key cellular priority and relies on the organelle's extensive proteome. The mitochondrial proteome is largely encoded by nuclear genes, and mitochondrial proteins must be sorted to the correct mitochondrial sub-compartment post-translationally. This essential process is carried out by multimeric and dynamic translocation and sorting machineries, which can be found in all four mitochondrial compartments. Interestingly, advances in the diagnosis of genetic disease have revealed that mutations in various components of the human import machinery can cause mitochondrial disease, a heterogenous and often severe collection of disorders associated with energy generation defects and a multisystem presentation often affecting the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Here, we review our current understanding of mitochondrial protein import systems in human cells and the molecular basis of mitochondrial diseases caused by defects in these pathways.

The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is a well-established model to study numerous cellular processes including cell motility, chemotaxis, and differentiation. As energy metabolism is involved in these processes, mitochondrial genetics and bioenergetics are of interest, though many features of Dictyostelium mitochondria differ from metazoans. A comprehensive inventory of mitochondrial proteins is critical to understanding mitochondrial processes and their involvement in various cellular pathways. Here, we utilized high-throughput multiplexed protein quantitation and homology analyses to generate a high-confidence mitochondrial protein compendium. Our proteomic approach, which utilizes quantitative mass spectrometry in combination with mathematical modeling, was validated through mitochondrial targeting sequence prediction and live-cell imaging. Our final compendium consists of 1082 proteins. Within our D. discoideum mitochondrial proteome, we identify many proteins that are not present in humans, yeasts, or the ancestral alpha-proteobacteria, which can serve as a foundation for future investigations into the unique mitochondria of Dictyostelium. Additionally, we leverage our compendium to highlight the complexity of metabolic reprogramming during starvation-induced development. Our compendium lays a foundation to investigate mitochondrial processes that are unique in protists, as well as for future studies to understand the functions of conserved mitochondrial proteins in health and diseases using D. discoideum as the model.

Abstract Mitochondria play a special role in iron metabolism as the site of heme synthesis for hemoglobin. Mitochondria also function in cellular respiration, apoptosis, amino acid synthesis, Fe-S cluster formation and repair, and redox homeostasis; different blood cell lineages depend on some or all of these diverse mitochondrial functions. Mitochondrial abnormalities in hematopoietic stem cells might manifest themselves in proteomes of all the hematopoietic lineages. Therefore, we have begun characterization of mitochondria from different peripheral blood cell populations: platelets, lymphocytes, neutrophils and reticulocytes with the objective of comparing their function and proteomes in normals and in certain disease states. The procedures utilized as starting material a blood draw of approximately 80 ml from normal volunteers. The peripheral blood samples were separated by centrifugation and Hypaque density gradient into platelet, mononuclear cell, neutrophil and red cell populations. The red cells were further sorted by density gradient and magnetic cell sorting with specific CD71 microbeads to obtain enrichment of reticulocytes (reticulocytes retain their mitochondria and lose these upon maturation into mature red cells). The various cell fractions were evaluated by cell counting, flow cytometry and staining for morphology and identification. In accordance with differences in size and surface characteristics of these cell types, different procedures for cell rupture were utilized: shearing with a home-made device using ball bearings (mononuclear cells, neutrophils), nitrogen cavitation (platelets) and hypotonic shock (reticulocytes). Mitochondria were prepared by differential centrifugation and Percoll density gradient separation. The mitochondria were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, marker enzyme activity (succinate dehydrogenase) and Western blotting with compartment-specific antibodies. Mitochondrial protein profiles were obtained using 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry. From 80 ml blood, 50 million lymphoctes were obtained equivalent to 150 microgram mitochondrial protein and 10 fold enrichment of succinate dehydrogenase activity. In parallel, K562 cell mitochondria were studied. The imaging analysis revealed significant differences in the protein patterns due to hematopoietic cell lineage. This work seeks to establish a proteomic database of shared and distinct erythroid, myeloid and lymphoid mitochondrial proteins that will form the basis of future studies of blood diseases in which perturbations of mitochondrial proteins are expected to occur. We are especially interested in examining the mitochondrial proteome and correlating with mitochondrial function in myelodysplasia and sideroblastic anemia.

AbstractThe majority of mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nuclear genome, so that the nearly entire proteome is assembled by post-translational preprotein import from the cytosol. Proteomic imbalances are sensed and induce cellular stress response pathways to restore proteostasis. Here, the mitochondrial presequence protease MPP serves as example to illustrate the critical role of mitochondrial protein biogenesis and proteostasis on cellular integrity.

Mitochondrial Ribosome

The most famous role of mitochondria is to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation, a metabolic pathway that involves a chain of four protein complexes (the electron transport chain, ETC) that generates a proton-motive force that in turn drives the ATP synthesis by the Complex V (ATP synthase). An impressive number of more than 1000 mitochondrial proteins have been discovered. Since mitochondrial proteins have a dual genetic origin, it is predicted that ~99% of these proteins are nuclear-encoded and are synthesized in the cytoplasmatic compartment, being further imported through mitochondrial membrane transporters. The lasting 1% of mitochondrial proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and synthesized by the mitochondrial ribosome (mitoribosome). As a result, an appropriate regulation of mitochondrial protein synthesis is absolutely required to achieve and maintain normal mitochondrial function. Regarding miRNAs in mitochondria, it is well-recognized nowadays that several cellular mechanisms involving mitochondria are regulated by many genetic players that originate from either nuclear- or mitochondrial-encoded small noncoding RNAs (sncRNAs). Growing evidence collected from whole genome and transcriptome sequencing highlight the role of distinct members of this class, from short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to miRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). Some of the mechanisms that have been shown to be modulated are the expression of mitochondrial proteins itself, as well as the more complex coordination of mitochondrial structure and dynamics with its function. We devote particular attention to the role of mitochondrial miRNAs and to their role in the modulation of several molecular processes that could ultimately contribute to tissue regeneration accomplishment.

Abstract Congenital neutropenia comprises a variety of genetically heterogeneous phenotypic traits. Molecular elucidation of the underlying genetic defects has yielded important insights into the physiology of neutrophil differentiation and function. Non-syndromic variants of congenital neutropenia are caused by mutations in ELA2, HAX1, GFI1, or WAS. Syndromic variants of congenital neutropenia may be due to mutations in genes controlling glucose metabolism (SLC37A4, G6PC3) or lysosomal function (LYST, RAB27A, ROBLD3/p14, AP3B1, VPS13B). Furthermore, defects in genes encoding ribosomal proteins (SBDS, RMRP) and mitochondrial proteins (AK2, TAZ) are associated with congenital neutropenia syndromes. Despite remarkable progress in the field, many patients with congenital neutropenia cannot yet definitively be classified by genetic terms. This review addresses diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of congenital neutropenia and covers recent molecular and pathophysiological insights of selected congenital neutropenia syndromes.
