The structure of the second CysD domain of MUC2 and role in mucin organization by transglutaminase-based cross-linking. Cell Rep 2024; 43:114207. [PMID: 38733585 DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2024.114207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
The MUC2 mucin protects the colonic epithelium by a two-layered mucus with an inner attached bacteria-free layer and an outer layer harboring commensal bacteria. CysD domains are 100 amino-acid-long sequences containing 10 cysteines that separate highly O-glycosylated proline, threonine, serine (PTS) regions in mucins. The structure of the second CysD, CysD2, of MUC2 is now solved by nuclear magnetic resonance. CysD2 shows a stable stalk region predicted to be partly covered by adjacent O-glycans attached to neighboring PTS sequences, whereas the CysD2 tip with three flexible loops is suggested to be well exposed. It shows transient dimer interactions at acidic pH, weakened at physiological pH. This transient interaction can be stabilized in vitro and in vivo by transglutaminase 3-catalyzed isopeptide bonds, preferring a specific glutamine residue on one flexible loop. This covalent dimer is modeled suggesting that CysD domains act as connecting hubs for covalent stabilization of mucins to form a protective mucus.

Abstract
Excessive mucus secretion is the most prominent feature of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), which often leads to significant increase in abdominal circumference, intractable abdominal pain, progressive intestinal obstruction, abdominal organ adhesions, and cachexia. Excessive mucus secretion is also the main cause of death. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is the recommended treatment for PMP. However, recurrence is frequently observed even after CRS and HIPEC, presenting similar clinical manifestations. Mucin 2 (MUC2) is the main type of mucin in PMP and plays a key role in the progressive sclerosis of mucus. To comprehensively demonstrate the biosynthetic process and molecular features of MUC2 and to provide new directions for the development of PMP mucolytic strategies, this review systematically summarizes the molecular biology of MUC2, including MUC2 gene structure, transcription, translation, post-translational modification, tertiary structure, and factors regulating mucus viscoelasticity. The results show that MUC2 is a highly glycosylated protein, with glycan accounts for 80% to 90% of the dry weight. The assembly pattern of MUC2 is highly complicated, presenting a bead-like filament. Salt concentration, pH, mucin concentration and trefoil factor family may contribute to the increase in mucus viscoelasticity and sclerosis, which could be used to develop drugs to soften or even dissolve mucus in the future.

Abstract
C-Mannosylation is a post-translational modification of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Monomeric α-mannose is attached to specific Trp residues at the first Trp in the Trp-x-x-Trp/Cys (W-x-x-W/C) motif of substrate proteins, by the action of C-mannosyltransferases, DPY19-related gene products. The acceptor substrate proteins are included in the thrombospondin type I repeat (TSR) superfamily, cytokine receptor type I family, and others. Previous studies demonstrated that C-mannosylation plays critical roles in the folding, sorting, and/or secretion of substrate proteins. A C-mannosylation-defective gene mutation was identified in humans as the disease-associated variant affecting a C-mannosylation motif of W-x-x-W of ADAMTSL1, which suggests the involvement of defects in protein C-mannosylation in human diseases such as developmental glaucoma, myopia, and/or retinal defects. On the other hand, monomeric C-mannosyl Trp (C-Man-Trp), a deduced degradation product of C-mannosylated proteins, occurs in cells and extracellular fluids. Several studies showed that the level of C-Man-Trp is upregulated in blood of patients with renal dysfunction, suggesting that the metabolism of C-Man-Trp may be involved in human kidney diseases. Together, protein C-mannosylation is considered to play important roles in the biosynthesis and functions of substrate proteins, and the altered regulation of protein C-manosylation may be involved in the pathophysiology of human diseases. In this review, we consider the biochemical and biomedical knowledge of protein C-mannosylation and C-Man-Trp, and introduce recent studies concerning their significance in biology and medicine.

Abstract
The CYS domain occurs in multiple copies in many gel-forming mucins. It is believed that CYS domains can interact with each other in a reversible manner, suggesting a key role of the domain in gel formation. This domain always contains in its amino-terminal sequence the C-mannosylation motif WXXW, but whether the CYS domain is C-mannosylated is debated, and the putative role of C-mannosylation of the domain is unclear. We prepared recombinant CYS domains of the human mucin MUC5B with (WXXW→AXXW) and without a single amino acid mutation and mini-5B mucins made of a large Ser/Thr/Pro region flanked by two CYS domains with the WXXW motif or with the mutated AXXW motif on the first, second or both CYS domains. We found that the single CYS domain and the two CYS domains of mini-5B mucin must be C-mannosylable for the efficient maturation and secretion of the recombinant molecules; otherwise, they are retained in the cell and co-localized with a resident enzyme of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Mucus is a hydrogel that constitutes the first innate defense in all mammals. The main organic component of mucus, gel-forming mucins, forms a complex network through both reversible and irreversible interactions that drive mucus gel formation. Significant advances in the understanding of irreversible gel-forming mucins assembly have been made using recombinant protein approaches. However, little is known about the reversible interactions that may finely modulate mucus viscoelasticity, which can be characterized using rheology. This approach can be used to investigate both the nature of gel-forming mucins interactions and factors that influence hydrogel formation. This knowledge is directly relevant to the development of new drugs to modulate mucus viscoelasticity and to restore normal mucus functions in diseases such as in cystic fibrosis. The aim of the present review is to summarize the current knowledge about the relationship between the mucus protein matrix and its functions, with emphasis on mucus viscoelasticity.

Abstract
The current analytical protocol used for the GC-MS determination of free or 1,7-lactonized natural sialic acids (Sias), as heptafluorobutyrates, overlooks several transformations. Using authentic reference standards and by combining GC-MS and NMR analyses, flaws in the analytical protocol were pinpointed and elucidated, thus establishing the scope and limitations of the method. It was demonstrated that (a) Sias 1,7-lactones, even if present in biological samples, decompose under the acidic hydrolysis conditions used for their release; (b) Sias 1,7-lactones are unpredicted artifacts, accidentally generated from their parent acids; (c) the N-acetyl group is quantitatively exchanged with that of the derivatizing perfluorinated anhydride; (d) the partial or complete failure of the Sias esterification-step with diazomethane leads to the incorrect quantification and structure attribution of all free Sias. While these findings prompt an urgent correction and improvement of the current analytical protocol, they could be instrumental for a critical revision of many incorrect claims reported in the literature.

Abstract
In previous articles [Anal. Biochem. 284 (2000) 201; J. Lipid Res. 43 (2002) 794], we reported that the GC/MS identification and quantification of nearly all constituents of glycolipids could be obtained on the same sample in a single GC/MS analysis as heptafluorobutyrate derivatives of the products liberated using acid-catalyzed methanolysis. The same type of data could be obtained on glycoproteins and proteoglycans [Biochemistry 42 (2003) 8342]. These experiments were performed on material from higher organisms, and there was no evidence that bacteria-specific constituents could also be identified and quantified. The current article reports that the GC/MS analysis of compounds liberated by acid-catalyzed methanolysis as heptafluorobutyrate derivatives allows the simultaneous qualitative and quantitative determinations of pentoses, deoxyhexoses, hexoses, hexosamines, uronic acids, Kdo, Mur, heptose, Kdn, and neuraminic acid as well as of most fatty acids (including hydroxylated fatty acids). This approach provides a way of obtaining fingerprints of bacterial constituents and quantification of the overall effect of gene inactivation or of culture conditions.
