项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Lipid chemical reporters and bioorthogonal ligation methods developed by my laboratory have provided new opportunities to investigate the functions of lipid-modified proteins in biology. Our proteomic analysis of fatty- acylated proteins in dendritic cells using fatty acid chemical reporters and bioorthogonal chemical proteomics has revealed a new role for protein S-fatty-acylation in host defense against viral infections. We discovered that S-fatty-acylation of membrane-proximal cysteines on murine IFITM3 is crucial for its membrane localization and antiviral activity against influenza A virus. The mechanisms that control S-fatty-acylation of human IFITM proteins have not been evaluated and will be addressed in this grant proposal. Aim 1 will evaluate the S-fatty-acylation levels, sites and function of human IFITM isoforms in different cell types/states of activation. Aim 2 describes the characterization of fatty acids covalently attached to human IFITM3 in cells. Aim 3 describes site-specific lipidation and reconstitution of IFITM3 in vitro for detailed biochemical and biophysical studies. Determining the mechanisms that control S-fatty-acylation IFITM3 function is crucial for understanding host immunity and may reveal new strategies for combatting virus infection in humans. The chemical approaches described in this grant should provide new reagents and methods for studying fatty- acylated proteins.

项目摘要我的实验室开发的脂质化学记者和生物正交结扎方法已提供了新的研究脂质改性蛋白在生物学中的功能的机会。我们对脂肪的蛋白质组学分析 - 使用脂肪酸化学记者和生物正交化学蛋白质组学中的树突状细胞中的酰化蛋白已经揭示了蛋白质S-脂肪酰化在宿主防御病毒感染中的新作用。我们发现了鼠类inifitm3上膜 - 五型半胱氨酸的S-肥胖酰化对于其膜至关重要针对流感病毒的定位和抗病毒活性。控制S-Fatty-acylation的机制人类IFITM蛋白尚未进行评估，并将在本赠款提案中解决。目标1意志评估人类IFITM同工型在不同细胞类型/状态的S-Fatty酰化水平，位点和功能激活。 AIM 2描述了与细胞中人IFITM3共同附着的脂肪酸的表征。 AIM 3描述了在体外的IFITM3特定地点脂质和重构，用于详细的生化和生物物理研究。确定控制s-fatty-acylation ifitm3函数的机制至关重要了解宿主的免疫力，并可能揭示对人类病毒感染作抗击的新策略。这本赠款中描述的化学方法应提供研究脂肪的新试剂和方法酰化蛋白。
