Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Dystonia1 (DYT1) dystonia is caused by a glutamic acid deletion (ΔE) mutation in the gene encoding Torsin A in humans (HTorA). To investigate the unknown molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying DYT1 dystonia, we performed an unbiased proteomic analysis. RESULTS:We found that the amount of proteins and transcripts of an Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident chaperone Heat shock protein cognate 3 (HSC3) and a mitochondria chaperone Heat Shock Protein 22 (HSP22) were significantly increased in the HTorA(ΔE)- expressing brains compared to the normal HTorA (HTorA(WT)) expressing brains. The physiological consequences included an increased susceptibility to oxidative and ER stress compared to normal HTorA(WT) flies. The alteration of transcripts of Inositol-requiring enzyme-1 (IRE1)-dependent spliced X box binding protein 1(Xbp1), several ER chaperones, a nucleotide exchange factor, Autophagy related protein 8b (ATG8b) and components of the ER associated degradation (ERAD) pathway and increased expression of the Xbp1-enhanced Green Fluorescence Protein (eGFP) in HTorA(ΔE) brains strongly indicated the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). In addition, perturbed expression of the UPR sensors and inducers in the HTorA(ΔE) Drosophila brains resulted in a significantly reduced life span of the flies. Furthermore, the types and quantities of proteins present in the anti-HSC3 positive microsomes in the HTorA(ΔE) brains were different from those of the HTorA(WT) brains. CONCLUSION:Taken together, these data show that HTorA(ΔE) in Drosophila brains may activate the UPR and increase the expression of HSP22 to compensate for the toxic effects caused by HTorA(ΔE) in the brains.
