Mitochondrial interactome quantitation reveals structural changes in metabolic machinery in failing murine heart

Le résumé fourni par la source

Abstract Advancements of cross-linking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) for structural analysis of proteins bridges the gap between purified systems and native tissue environments. Here, isobaric quantitative protein interaction reporter technology (iqPIR) was utilized to further extend XL-MS to the first system-wide comparative study of mitochondrial proteins from healthy and diseased murine hearts. The failing heart interactome includes 602 statistically significant cross-linked peptide pairs altered in the disease condition. Structural insight into ketone oxidation metabolons, OXPHOS machinery, and nucleotide transporter hybrid-conformations, support mitochondrial remodeling in failing heart while bringing forth new hypotheses for pathological mechanisms. Application of quantitative cross-linking technology in tissue provides molecular-level insight to complex biological systems difficult to model in cell culture, thus providing a valuable resource for study of human diseases.
