Abstract:
We have analyzed proteasomal adaptation and associated changes in the B27-bound peptide repertoire in response to cellular invasion with Salmonella . The peptide repertoire of HLA-B27 complexes was analyzed by two different methods: (i) high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) profiles of newly synthesized peptides eluted from B27 following metabolic labeling with arginine and (ii) reactivities with two B27 monoclonal antibodies, Ye-2 and B27.M2, sensitive to peptide-induced conformational changes. LMP, MECL, and PA28 expression was analyzed by reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) of mRNA and by Western blot analysis for LMP2. Invasion of HLA-B27-transfected HeLa cells by Salmonella typhimurium induced significant changes in the reactivities of HLA-B27 with these two antibodies, which was accompanied by significant quantitative and qualitative changes in the HPLC profile of peptides eluted from HLA-B27. We also observed increases in the RT-PCR values for the LMP2, LMP7, and MECL proteasome subunit genes, as well as the proteasomal activator PA28α and -β genes, and increased expression of the LMP2 protein by Western blotting. Upregulation of LMP2, but not LMP7, gene expression showed a close correlation with the changes in antibody reactivities observed upon bacterial invasion. We observed similar changes in reactivity with the Ye-2 or the B27.M2 antibody of lymphoblastoid cells upon gamma interferon treatment, which significantly correlated with the increased RT-PCR values for the LMP2 gene. This was accompanied by consistent HPLC profile changes for eluted peptides. Thus, Salmonella invasion leads to serologically recognizable changes in the B27-bound peptide repertoire, which may include peptides of host origin potentially through modulation of proteasome LMP2 subunit expression and, as a consequence, proteasomal activities.
