Abstract
The role of protein turnover in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) metastasis has not been previously investigated. We introduce dynamic stable-isotope labeling of organoids (dSILO): a dynamic SILAC derivative that combines a pulse of isotopically labeled amino acids with isobaric tandem mass-tag (TMT) labeling to measure proteome-wide protein turnover rates in organoids. We applied it to a PDA model and discovered that metastatic organoids exhibit an accelerated global proteome turnover compared to primary tumor organoids. Globally, most turnover changes are not reflected at the level of protein abundance. Interestingly, the group of proteins that show the highest turnover increase in metastatic PDA compared to tumor is involved in mitochondrial respiration. This indicates that metastatic PDA may adopt alternative respiratory chain functionality that is controlled by the rate at which proteins are turned over. Collectively, our analysis of proteome turnover in PDA organoids offers insights into the mechanisms underlying PDA metastasis.

Abstract
Receptor-mediated cellular uptake of specific ligands constitutes an important step in the dynamic regulation of individual protein levels in extracellular fluids. With a focus on the inflammatory lung, we here performed a proteomics-based search for novel ligands regulated by the mannose receptor (MR), a macrophage-expressed endocytic receptor. Wildtype and MR-deficient mice were exposed to lipopolysachharide (LPS), after which the protein content in their lung epithelial lining fluid (ELF) was compared by tandem mass tag-based mass spectrometry. More than 1200 proteins were identified in the ELF using this unbiased approach, but only six showed a statistically different abundance. Among these, an unexpected potential new ligand, thrombospondin-4 (TSP-4), displayed a striking 17-fold increased abundance in the MR-deficient mice. Experiments using exogenous addition of TSP-4 to MR-transfected CHO cells or MR-positive alveolar macrophages confirmed that TSP-4 is a ligand for MR-dependent endocytosis. Similar studies revealed that the molecular interaction with TSP-4 depends on both the lectin activity and the fibronectin type-II domain of MR and that a closely related member of the thrombospondin family, TSP-5, is also efficiently internalized by the receptor. This was unlike the other members of this protein family, including TSPs -1 and -2, which are ligands for a close MR homologue known as uPARAP. Our study shows that MR takes part in the regulation of TSP-4, an important inflammatory component in the injured lung, and that two closely related endocytic receptors, expressed on different cell types, undertake the selective endocytosis of distinct members of the thrombospondin family.

Abstract
In humans and plants, 40% of the proteome is co-translationally acetylated at the N-terminus by a single Nα-acetyltransferase (Nat) termed NatA. The core NatA complex is comprised of the catalytic subunit Nα- acetyltransferase 10 (NAA10) and the ribosome-anchoring subunit NAA15. The regulatory subunit Huntingtin Yeast Partner K (HYPK) and the acetyltransferase NAA50 join this complex in humans. Even though both are conserved in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), only AtHYPK is known to interact with AtNatA. Here we uncover the AtNAA50 interactome and provide evidence for the association of AtNAA50 with NatA at ribosomes. In agreement with the latter, a split-luciferase approach demonstrated close proximity of AtNAA50 and AtNatA in planta. Despite their interaction, AtNatA/HYPK and AtNAA50 exerted different functions in vivo. Unlike NatA/HYPK, AtNAA50 did not modulate drought-tolerance or promote protein stability. Instead, transcriptome and proteome analyses of a novel AtNAA50-depleted mutant (amiNAA50) implied that AtNAA50 negatively regulates plant immunity. Indeed, amiNAA50 plants exhibited enhanced resistance to oomycetes and bacterial pathogens. In contrast to what was observed in NatA-depleted mutants, this resistance was independent of an accumulation of salicylic acid prior to pathogen exposure. Our study dissects the in vivo function of the NatA interactors HYPK and NAA50 and uncovers NatA-independent roles for NAA50 in plants.

Abstract
Protein turnover defines the balance between two continuous and complex processes of protein metabolism, synthesis and degradation, which determine their deposition in tissues. Although the liver and intestine have been studied extensively for their important roles in protein digestion, absorption and metabolism, the study of protein metabolism has focused mainly on skeletal muscle tissue to understand the basis for its growth. Due to the high adaptability of skeletal muscle, its protein turnover is greatly affected by different internal and external factors, contributing to carcass lean-yield and animal growth. Amino acid (AA) labelling and tracking using isotope tracer methodology, together with the study of myofiber type profiling, signal transduction pathways and gene expression, has allowed the analysis of these mechanisms from different perspectives. Positive stimuli such as increased nutrient availability in the diet (e.g., AA), physical activity, the presence of certain hormones (e.g., testosterone) or a more oxidative myofiber profile in certain muscles or pig genotypes promote increased upregulation of translation and transcription-related genes, activation of mTORC1 signalling mechanisms and increased abundance of satellite cells, allowing for more efficient protein synthesis. However, fasting, animal aging, inactivity and stress, inflammation or sepsis produce the opposite effect. Deepening the understanding of modifying factors and their possible interaction may contribute to the design of optimal strategies to better control tissue growth and nutrient use (i.e., protein and AA), and thus advance the precision feeding strategy.

Abstract
Proteins are molecular machines that provide structure and perform vital transport, signalling and enzymatic roles. Proteins expressed by cells require tight regulation of their concentration, folding, localisation, and modifications; however, this state of protein homeostasis is continuously perturbed by tissue-level stresses. While cells in healthy tissues are able to buffer against these perturbations, for example, by expression of chaperone proteins, protein homeostasis is lost in ageing, and can lead to protein aggregation characteristic of protein folding diseases. Here, we review reports of a progressive disconnect between transcriptomic and proteomic regulation during cellular ageing. We discuss how age-associated changes to cellular responses to specific stressors in the tissue microenvironment are exacerbated by loss of ribosomal proteins, ribosomal pausing, and mistranslation.

Abstract
Protein translational control is critical for ensuring that the fetus develops correctly and that necessary organs and tissues are formed and functional. We developed an in utero method to quantify tissue-specific protein dynamics by monitoring amino acid incorporation into the proteome after pulse injection. Fetuses of pregnant mice were injected with isotopically labeled lysine and arginine via the vitelline vein at various embyonic days, and organs and tissues were harvested. By analyzing the nascent proteome, unique signatures of each tissue were identified by hierarchical clustering. In addition, the quantified proteome-wide turnover rates were calculated between 3.81E-5 and 0.424 h-1. We observed similar protein turnover profiles for analyzed organs (e.g., liver vs. brain); however, their distributions of turnover rates vary significantly. The translational kinetic profiles of developing organs displayed differentially expressed protein pathways and synthesis rates, which correlated with known physiological changes during mouse development.

Abstract
Efficient protein turnover is essential for cellular homeostasis and organ function. Loss of proteostasis is a hallmark of aging culminating in severe dysfunction of protein turnover. To investigate protein turnover dynamics as a function of age, we performed continuous in vivo metabolic stable isotope labeling in mice along the aging continuum. First, we discovered that the brain proteome uniquely undergoes dynamic turnover fluctuations during aging compared to heart and liver tissue. Second, trends in protein turnover in the brain proteome during aging showed sex-specific differences that were tightly tied to cellular compartments. Next, parallel analyses of the insoluble proteome revealed that several cellular compartments experience hampered turnover, in part due to misfolding. Finally, we found that age-associated fluctuations in proteasome activity were associated with the turnover of core proteolytic subunits, which was recapitulated by pharmacological suppression of proteasome activity. Taken together, our study provides a proteome-wide atlas of protein turnover across the aging continuum and reveals a link between the turnover of individual proteasome subunits and the age-associated decline in proteasome activity.

Abstract
The functions of proteins depend on their spatial and temporal distributions, which are not directly measured by static protein abundance. Under endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, the unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway remediates proteostasis in part by altering the turnover kinetics and spatial distribution of proteins. A global view of these spatiotemporal changes has yet to emerge and it is unknown how they affect different cellular compartments and pathways. Here we describe a mass spectrometry-based proteomics strategy and data analysis pipeline, termed Simultaneous Proteome Localization and Turnover (SPLAT), to measure concurrently the changes in protein turnover and subcellular distribution in the same experiment. Investigating two common UPR models of thapsigargin and tunicamycin challenge in human AC16 cells, we find that the changes in protein turnover kinetics during UPR varies across subcellular localizations, with overall slowdown but an acceleration in endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi proteins involved in stress response. In parallel, the spatial proteomics component of the experiment revealed an externalization of amino acid transporters and ion channels under UPR, as well as the migration of RNA-binding proteins toward an endosome co-sedimenting compartment. The SPLAT experimental design classifies heavy and light SILAC labeled proteins separately, allowing the observation of differential localization of new and old protein pools and capturing a partition of newly synthesized EGFR and ITGAV to the ER under stress that suggests protein trafficking disruptions. Finally, application of SPLAT toward human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CM) exposed to the cancer drug carfilzomib, identified a selective disruption of proteostasis in sarcomeric proteins as a potential mechanism of carfilzomib-mediated cardiotoxicity. Taken together, this study provides a global view into the spatiotemporal dynamics of human cardiac cells and demonstrates a method for inferring the coordinations between spatial and temporal proteome regulations in stress and drug response.

Abstract
S-acylation is a covalent post-translational modification of proteins with fatty acids, achieved by enzymatic attachment via a labile thioester bond. This modification allows for dynamic control of protein properties and functions in association with cell membranes. This lipid modification regulates a substantial portion of the human proteome and plays an increasingly recognized role throughout the lifespan of affected proteins. Recent technical advancements have propelled the S-acylation field into a 'molecular era', unveiling new insights into its mechanistic intricacies and far-reaching implications. With a striking increase in the number of studies on this modification, new concepts are indeed emerging on the roles of S-acylation in specific cell biology processes and features. After a brief overview of the enzymes involved in S-acylation, this viewpoint focuses on the importance of S-acylation in the homeostasis, function, and coordination of integral membrane proteins. In particular, we put forward the hypotheses that S-acylation is a gatekeeper of membrane protein folding and turnover and a regulator of the formation and dynamics of membrane contact sites.

Abstract
Proteins are needed for providing essential amino acids, nitrogen, and fuel for the body's needs in all age groups. Proteins are especially required during active growth in pregnancy, lactation, childhood, and tissue growth in general. An adequate protein intake is needed in old adults to avoid premature muscle loss. According to the current dietary surveys, protein intake in the Nordic and Baltic countries varies from 15 to 19% of the total energy intake in adults. Comprehensive data regarding children and older adults are lacking. No good measure for protein status exists, and the estimation of physiological requirements is based on N-balance studies having some weaknesses. Protein quality is assessed by considering the protein digestibility of individual indispensable amino acids and their utilization (bioavailability), which is affected by food antinutrients and processing. The evidence regarding the association of protein intake per se with health outcomes is limited or suggestive. It is difficult to separate from the effect of other nutrients or ingredients in protein-rich foods. Proteins are widespread in foods, deriving from both animal and plant sources. Animal-sourced protein production puts more strain on the environment than plant-sourced proteins and contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, thereby enhancing climate change. In Nordic and Baltic countries, consumption of animal-sourced proteins is relatively high. A shift toward more plant-based protein diets would be advisable for promoting a healthy and sustainable diet.

Abstract
This pilot experiment examines if a loss in muscle proteostasis occurs in people with obesity and whether endurance exercise positively influences either the abundance profile or turnover rate of proteins in this population. Men with (n = 3) or without (n = 4) obesity were recruited and underwent a 14-d measurement protocol of daily deuterium oxide (D2 O) consumption and serial biopsies of vastus lateralis muscle. Men with obesity then completed 10-weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), encompassing 3 sessions per week of cycle ergometer exercise with 1 min intervals at 100% maximum aerobic power interspersed by 1 min recovery periods. The number of intervals per session progressed from 4 to 8, and during weeks 8-10 the 14-d measurement protocol was repeated. Proteomic analysis detected 352 differences (p < 0.05, false discovery rate < 5%) in protein abundance and 19 (p < 0.05) differences in protein turnover, including components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. HIIT altered the abundance of 53 proteins and increased the turnover rate of 22 proteins (p < 0.05) and tended to benefit proteostasis by increasing muscle protein turnover rates. Obesity and insulin resistance are associated with compromised muscle proteostasis, which may be partially restored by endurance exercise.

Abstract
Synthesis of plasma proteins is an important function of the liver that has sparsely been investigated by modern techniques in patients with advanced chronic liver disease (CLD). Twenty-eight well-characterized patients with CLD under evaluation for liver transplantation were included. Albumin and fibrinogen synthesis rates were measured by the flooding dose technique using stable isotope-labeled phenylalanine. Transcapillary escape rate of albumin and plasma volume were assessed by radioiodinated human serum albumin. The absolute albumin synthesis rates were low (65 mg/kg/day, range: 32-203) and were associated with impaired liver function, as reflected by the risk-scores Child-Pugh (P = 0.025) and model for end-stage liver disease (rs = -0.62, P = 0.0005). The fibrinogen synthesis rate (12.8 mg/kg/day, range: 2.4-52.9) was also negatively associated with liver function. The synthesis rates of albumin and fibrinogen were positively correlated. Plasma volume was high (51 ± 9 mL/kg body wt), which contributed to an almost normal intravascular albumin mass despite low plasma concentration. Autoimmune inflammatory etiologies to CLD were associated with higher fibrinogen synthesis. De novo synthesis rates of albumin and fibrinogen in advanced chronic liver failure were negatively correlated to prognostic scores of liver disease. Albumin synthesis rate was low and associated with both liver failure and autoimmune inflammation, whereas fibrinogen synthesis was often normal and positively associated with chronic inflammation. This is different from acute inflammatory states in which both albumin and fibrinogen synthesis rates are high.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Albumin and fibrinogen synthesis were positively correlated, but the high variation indicates that these are probably influenced by different mechanisms. There might be a limited metabolic reserve for the liver to increase both albumin and fibrinogen synthesis in response to longstanding inflammation in CLD and fibrinogen seems to be prioritized.

Abstract
Bioinformatics tools are used to estimate in vivo protein turnover rates from the LC-MS data of heavy water labeled samples in high throughput. The quantification includes peak detection and integration in the LC-MS domain of complex input data of the mammalian proteome, which requires the integration of results from different experiments. The existing software tools for the estimation of turnover rate use predefined, built-in, stringent filtering criteria to select well-fitted peptides and determine turnover rates for proteins. The flexible control of filtering and quality measures will help to reduce the effects of fluctuations and interferences to the signals from target peptides while retaining an adequate number of peptides. This work describes an approach for flexible error control and filtering measures implemented in the computational tool d2ome for automating protein turnover rates. The error control measures (based on spectral properties and signal features) reduced the standard deviation and tightened the confidence intervals of the estimated turnover rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle mass and strength diminish during periods of disuse but recover upon return to weight bearing in healthy adults but are incomplete in old muscle. Efforts to improve muscle recovery in older individuals commonly aim at increasing myofibrillar protein synthesis via mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) stimulation despite evidence demonstrating that old muscle has chronically elevated levels of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity. We hypothesized that protein synthesis is higher in old muscle than adult muscle, which contributes to a proteostatic stress that impairs recovery. METHODS We unloaded hindlimbs of adult (10-month) and old (28-month) F344BN rats for 14 days to induce atrophy, followed by reloading up to 60 days with deuterium oxide (D2 O) labelling to study muscle regrowth and proteostasis. RESULTS We found that old muscle has limited recovery of muscle mass during reloading despite having higher translational capacity and myofibrillar protein synthesis (0.029 k/day ± 0.002 vs. 0.039 k/day ± 0.002, P < 0.0001) than adult muscle. We showed that collagen protein synthesis was not different (0.005 k (1/day) ± 0.0005 vs. 0.004 k (1/day) ± 0.0005, P = 0.15) in old compared to adult, but old muscle had higher collagen concentration (4.5 μg/mg ± 1.2 vs. 9.8 μg/mg ± 0.96, P < 0.01), implying that collagen breakdown was slower in old muscle than adult muscle. This finding was supported by old muscle having more insoluble collagen (4.0 ± 1.1 vs. 9.2 ± 0.9, P < 0.01) and an accumulation of advanced glycation end products (1.0 ± 0.06 vs. 1.5 ± 0.08, P < 0.001) than adult muscle during reloading. Limited recovery of muscle mass during reloading is in part due to higher protein degradation (0.017 1/t ± 0.002 vs. 0.028 1/t ± 0.004, P < 0.05) and/or compromised proteostasis as evidenced by accumulation of ubiquitinated insoluble proteins (1.02 ± 0.06 vs. 1.22 ± 0.06, P < 0.05). Last, we showed that synthesis of individual proteins related to protein folding/refolding, protein degradation and neural-related biological processes was higher in old muscle during reloading than adult muscle. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that the failure of old muscle to recover after disuse is not due to limitations in the ability to synthesize myofibrillar proteins but because of other impaired proteostatic mechanisms (e.g., protein folding and degradation). These data provide novel information on individual proteins that accumulate in protein aggregates after disuse and certain biological processes such as protein folding and degradation that likely play a role in impaired recovery. Therefore, interventions to enhance regrowth of old muscle after disuse should be directed towards the identified impaired proteostatic mechanisms and not aimed at increasing protein synthesis.

Abstract
Cataloging human proteins and evaluation of their expression, cellular localization, functions, and potential medical significance are important tasks for the global proteomic community. At present, localization and functions of protein products for almost half of protein-coding genes remain unknown or poorly understood. Investigation of organelle proteomes is a promising approach to uncovering localization and functions of human proteins. Nuclear proteome is of particular interest because many nuclear proteins, e.g., transcription factors, regulate functions that determine cell fate. Meta-analysis of the nuclear proteome, or nucleome, of HL-60 cells treated with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) has shown that the functions and localization of a protein product of the SOWAHD gene are poorly understood. Also, there is no comprehensive information on the SOWAHD gene expression at the protein level. In HL-60 cells, the number of mRNA transcripts of the SOWAHD gene was determined as 6.4 ± 0.7 transcripts per million molecules. Using targeted mass spectrometry, the content of the SOWAHD protein was measured as 0.27 to 1.25 fmol/μg total protein. The half-life for the protein product of the SOWAHD gene determined using stable isotope pulse-chase labeling was ~19 h. Proteomic profiling of the nuclear fraction of HL-60 cells showed that the content of the SOWAHD protein increased during the ATRA-induced granulocytic differentiation, reached the peak value at 9 h after ATRA addition, and then decreased. Nuclear location and involvement of the SOWAHD protein in the ATRA-induced granulocytic differentiation have been demonstrated for the first time.

Abstract
Cancer cachexia is clinically defined by involuntary weight loss >5% in <6 mo, primarily affecting skeletal muscle. Here, we aimed to identify sex differences in the onset of colorectal cancer cachexia with specific consideration to skeletal muscle contractile and metabolic functions. Eight-weeks old BALB/c mice (69 males, 59 females) received subcutaneous C26 allografts or PBS vehicle. Tumors were developed for 10-, 15-, 20-, or 25 days. Muscles and organs were collected, in vivo muscle contractility, protein synthesis rate, mitochondrial function, and protein turnover markers were assessed. One-way ANOVA within sex and trend analysis between sexes were performed, P < 0.05. Gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles became atrophic in male mice at 25 days, whereas female mice exhibited no significant differences in muscle weights at endpoints despite presenting hallmarks of cancer cachexia (fat loss, hepatosplenomegaly). We observed lowered muscle contractility and protein synthesis concomitantly to muscle mass decay in males, with higher proteolytic markers in muscles of both sexes. mRNA of Opa1 was lower in TA, whereas Bnip3 was higher in gastrocnemius after 25 days in male mice, with no significant effect in female mice. Our data suggest relative protections to skeletal muscle in females compared with males despite other canonical signs of cancer cachexia and increased protein degradation markers; suggesting we should place onus upon nonmuscle tissues during early stages of cancer cachexia in females. We noted potential protective mechanisms relating to skeletal muscle contractile and mitochondrial functions. Our findings underline possible heterogeneity in onset of cancer cachexia between biological sexes, suggesting the need for sex-specific approaches to treat cancer cachexia.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Our study demonstrates biological-sex differences in phenotypic characteristics of cancer cachexia between male and female mice, whereby females display many common characteristics of cachexia (gonadal fat loss and hepatosplenomegaly), protein synthesis markers alterations, and common catabolic markers in skeletal muscle despite relatively preserved muscle mass in early-stage cachexia compared with males. Mechanisms of cancer cachexia appear to differ between sexes. Data suggest need to place onus of early cancer cachexia detection and treatment on nonmuscle tissues in females.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential organelles whose proteome is well protected by regulated protein degradation and quality control. While the ubiquitin-proteasome system can monitor mitochondrial proteins that reside at the mitochondrial outer membrane or are not successfully imported, resident proteases generally act on proteins within mitochondria. Herein, we assess the degradative pathways for mutant forms of three mitochondrial matrix proteins (mas1-1HA, mas2-11HA, and tim44-8HA) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The degradation of these proteins is strongly impaired by loss of either the matrix AAA-ATPase (m-AAA) (Afg3p/Yta12p) or Lon (Pim1p) protease. We determine that these mutant proteins are all bona fide Pim1p substrates whose degradation is also blocked in respiratory-deficient "petite" yeast cells, such as in cells lacking m-AAA protease subunits. In contrast, matrix proteins that are substrates of the m-AAA protease are not affected by loss of respiration. The failure to efficiently remove Pim1p substrates in petite cells has no evident relationship to Pim1p maturation, localization, or assembly. However, Pim1p's autoproteolysis is intact, and its overexpression restores substrate degradation, indicating that Pim1p retains some functionality in petite cells. Interestingly, chemical perturbation of mitochondria with oligomycin similarly prevents degradation of Pim1p substrates. Our results demonstrate that Pim1p activity is highly sensitive to mitochondrial perturbations such as loss of respiration or drug treatment in a manner that we do not observe with other proteases.

Abstract
Proteomic studies in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) could offer new insight into disease mechanisms underpinned by post-transcriptional processes. We used stable isotope (deuterium oxide; D2O) labeling and peptide mass spectrometry to investigate the abundance and turnover rates of proteins in cultured muscle cells from two individuals affected by FSHD and their unaffected siblings (UASb). We measured the abundance of 4420 proteins and the turnover rate of 2324 proteins in each (n = 4) myoblast sample. FSHD myoblasts exhibited a greater abundance but slower turnover rate of subunits of mitochondrial respiratory complexes and mitochondrial ribosomal proteins, which may indicate an accumulation of "older" less viable mitochondrial proteins in myoblasts from individuals affected by FSHD. Treatment with a 2'-O-methoxyethyl modified antisense oligonucleotide targeting exon 3 of the double homeobox 4 (DUX4) transcript tended to reverse mitochondrial protein dysregulation in FSHD myoblasts, indicating the effect on mitochondrial proteins may be a DUX4-dependent mechanism. Our results highlight the importance of post-transcriptional processes and protein turnover in FSHD pathology and provide a resource for the FSHD research community to explore this burgeoning aspect of FSHD.

Abstract
Extreme environmental conditions eventually limit plant growth [J. R. Dinneny, Annu. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol. 35, 1-19 (2019), N. Gigli-Bisceglia, C. Testerink, Curr. Opin. Plant Biol. 64, 102120 (2021)]. Here, we reveal a mechanism that enables multiple external cues to get integrated into auxin-dependent growth programs in Arabidopsis thaliana. Our forward genetics approach on dark-grown hypocotyls uncovered that an imbalance in membrane lipids enhances the protein abundance of PIN-LIKES (PILS) [E. Barbez et al., Nature 485, 119 (2012)] auxin transport facilitators at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which thereby limits nuclear auxin signaling and growth rates. We show that this subcellular response relates to ER stress signaling, which directly impacts PILS protein turnover in a tissue-dependent manner. This mechanism allows PILS proteins to integrate environmental input with phytohormone auxin signaling, contributing to stress-induced growth adaptation in plants.

Abstract
Protein translational control is highly regulated step in the gene expression program during mammalian development that is critical for ensuring that the fetus develops correctly and that all of the necessary organs and tissues are formed and functional. Defects in protein expression during fetal development can lead to severe developmental abnormalities or premature death. Currently, quantitative techniques to monitor protein synthesis rates in a developing fetus (in utero) are limited. Here, we developed a novel in utero stable isotope labeling approach to quantify tissue-specific protein dynamics of the nascent proteome during mouse fetal development. Fetuses of pregnant C57BL/6J mice were injected with isotopically labeled lysine (Lys8) and arginine (Arg10) via the vitelline vein at various gestational days. After treatment, fetal organs/tissues including brain, liver, lung, and heart were harvested for sample preparation and proteomic analysis. We show that the mean incorporation rate for injected amino acids into all organs was 17.50 ± 0.6%. By analyzing the nascent proteome, unique signatures of each tissue were identified by hierarchical clustering. In addition, the quantified proteome-wide turnover rates (kobs) were calculated between 3.81E-5 and 0.424 hour-1. We observed similar protein turnover profiles for analyzed organs (e.g., liver versus brain), however, their distributions of turnover rates vary significantly. The translational kinetic profiles of developing organs displayed differentially expressed protein pathways and synthesis rates which correlated with known physiological changes during mouse development.

Abstract
SCOPE Skeletal muscle atrophy is a critical feature of cancer-associated cachexia (CAC) and it is responsible for poor quality of life and high mortality in cancer patients. Our previous study demonstrated that eicosapentaenoic acid-enriched phospholipids (EPA-PL) prevented body weight loss in a mouse model of CAC. However, the role of EPA-PL on cancer-induced skeletal muscle atrophy remains unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS In the present study, a Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) mouse model was established, then the effect and underlying mechanism of EPA-PL on skeletal muscle atrophy in LLC-bearing mice were investigated. The results revealed that EPA-PL treatment significantly attenuated skeletal muscle atrophy in LLC-bearing mice, as evidenced by suppressing the reductions of skeletal muscle mass, myofiber cross-sectional area and grip strength. Besides, we found that EPA-PL alleviated cancer-induced skeletal muscle atrophy via balancing muscle protein degradation and synthesis, inhibiting type I oxidative muscle fibers atrophy and promoting mitochondrial function. Furthermore, our results also indicated that EPA-PL might counteract skeletal muscle atrophy in LLC mouse model via a sirtuin 1-dependent mechanism. CONCLUSION These findings provide evidence that EPA-PL might be beneficial as a nutritional supplement for prevention and treatment of cancer-induced skeletal muscle atrophy.

Abstract
A balance between the synthesis and degradation of proteins is referred to as protein turnover, which is crucial for cellular protein homeostasis. Proteome-wide analysis of protein turnover in adipocytes, which are well-known for their role in energy storage and their link to obesity and metabolism disorders, is yet to be conducted. Thus, with this objective in mind, our investigation utilized a comparative analysis of time-dependent SILAC labeling to assess protein turnover in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, spanning a period of 0 to 144 h. We observed that relatively faster or slower protein half-lives in several protein groups were associated with the PPARγ signaling pathway, energy metabolism, extracellular matrix, ubiquitin-proteasome system, RNA splicing, Golgi complex, and lysosome. It is anticipated that these protein half-life profiles will provide greater clarity on the life cycle of adipocyte proteome and shed light on how they maintain protein homeostasis.

Abstract
Monitoring mammalian macroautophagic/autophagic flux is necessary in most autophagy studies but has generally been difficult to do. Here, we discuss our recent report of a HaloTag-based processing method that offers a straightforward readout for autophagic flux. We found that the self-labeling protein HaloTag becomes resistant to proteolysis when labeled with its ligand. Fusing HaloTag to an autophagy protein such as LC3 results in a reporter that is completely degraded when delivered into lysosomes but, when pulse-labeled with HaloTag ligand, releases free HaloTagligand when processed by lysosomal enzymes. The quantifiable amount of free HaloTagligand, observed by immunoblotting or in-gel fluorescence detection, reflects autophagic flux. Besides being compatible with fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry applications, this quantitative assay can be readily adapted to monitor most autophagy pathways or the autophagic degradation of a protein of interest.

Abstract
Protein turnover (PT) has been formally defined only in equilibrium conditions, which is ill-suited to quantify PT during dynamic processes that occur during embryogenesis or (extra) cellular signaling. In this Hypothesis, we propose a definition of PT in an out-of-equilibrium regime that allows the quantification of PT in virtually any biological context. We propose a simple mathematical and conceptual framework applicable to a broad range of available data, such as RNA sequencing coupled with pulsed-SILAC datasets. We apply our framework to a published dataset and show that stimulation of mouse dendritic cells with LPS leads to a proteome-wide change in PT. This is the first quantification of PT out-of-equilibrium, paving the way for the analysis of biological systems in other contexts.

Abstract
On a global scale, drought, salinity, extreme temperature, and other abiotic stressors severely limit the quality and yield of crops. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the adaptation strategies of plants to harsh environments. Chloroplasts are important environmental sensors in plant cells. For plants to thrive in different habitats, chloroplast homeostasis must be strictly regulated, which is necessary to maintain efficient plant photosynthesis and other metabolic reactions under stressful environments. To maintain normal chloroplast physiology, two important biological processes are needed: the import and degradation of chloroplast proteins. The orderly import of chloroplast proteins and the timely degradation of damaged chloroplast components play a key role in adapting plants to their environment. In this review, we briefly described the mechanism of chloroplast TOC-TIC protein transport. The importance and recent progress of chloroplast protein turnover, retrograde signaling, and chloroplast protein degradation under stress are summarized. Furthermore, the potential of targeted regulation of chloroplast homeostasis is emphasized to improve plant adaptation to environmental stresses.

Abstract
In spite of its central role in biology and disease, protein turnover is a largely understudied aspect of most proteomic studies due to the complexity of computational workflows that analyze in vivo turnover rates. To address this need, we developed a new computational tool, TurnoveR, to accurately calculate protein turnover rates from mass spectrometric analysis of metabolic labeling experiments in Skyline, a free and open-source proteomics software platform. TurnoveR is a straightforward graphical interface that enables seamless integration of protein turnover analysis into a traditional proteomics workflow in Skyline, allowing users to take advantage of the advanced and flexible data visualization and curation features built into the software. The computational pipeline of TurnoveR performs critical steps to determine protein turnover rates, including isotopologue demultiplexing, precursor-pool correction, statistical analysis, and generation of data reports and visualizations. This workflow is compatible with many mass spectrometric platforms and recapitulates turnover rates and differential changes in turnover rates between treatment groups calculated in previous studies. We expect that the addition of TurnoveR to the widely used Skyline proteomics software will facilitate wider utilization of protein turnover analysis in highly relevant biological models, including aging, neurodegeneration, and skeletal muscle atrophy.

Abstract
The orchestration of protein production and degradation, and the regulation of protein lifetimes, play a central role in the majority of biological processes. Recent advances in proteomics have enabled the estimation of protein half-lives for thousands of proteins in vivo. What is the utility of these measurements, and how can they be leveraged to interpret the proteome changes occurring during development, aging, and disease? This opinion article summarizes leading technical approaches and highlights their strengths and weaknesses. We also disambiguate frequently used terminology, illustrate recent mechanistic insights, and provide guidance for interpreting and validating protein turnover measurements. Overall, protein lifetimes, coupled to estimates of protein levels, are essential for obtaining a deep understanding of mammalian biology and the basic processes defining life itself.

Abstract
The turnover measurement of proteins and proteoforms has been largely facilitated by workflows coupling metabolic labeling with mass spectrometry (MS), including dynamic stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (dynamic SILAC) or pulsed SILAC (pSILAC). Very recent studies including ours have integrated themeasurement of post-translational modifications (PTMs) at the proteome level (i.e., phosphoproteomics) with pSILAC experiments in steady state systems, exploring the link between PTMs and turnover at the proteome-scale. An open question in the field is how to exactly interpret these complex datasets in a biological perspective. Here, we present a novel pSILAC phosphoproteomic dataset which was obtained during a dynamic process of cell starvation using data-independent acquisition MS (DIA-MS). To provide an unbiased "hypothesis-free" analysis framework, we developed a strategy to interrogate how phosphorylation dynamically impacts protein turnover across the time series data. With this strategy, we discovered a complex relationship between phosphorylation and protein turnover that was previously underexplored. Our results further revealed a link between phosphorylation stoichiometry with the turnover of phosphorylated peptidoforms. Moreover, our results suggested that phosphoproteomic turnover diversity cannot directly explain the abundance regulation of phosphorylation during cell starvation, underscoring the importance of future studies addressing PTM site-resolved protein turnover.

Abstract
Stress granules (SGs) are stress-induced biomolecular condensates which originate primarily from inactivated RNA translation machinery and translation initiation factors. SG formation is an important defensive mechanism for cell survival, while its dysfunction has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms of SG assembly and disassembly, as well as their impacts on cellular recovery, are not fully understood. More thorough investigations into the molecular dynamics of SG pathways are required to understand the pathophysiological roles of SGs in cellular systems. Here, we characterize the SG and cytoplasmic protein turnover in neuronal progenitor cells (NPCs) under stressed and non-stressed conditions using correlative STED and NanoSIMS imaging. We incubate NPCs with isotopically labelled (15N) leucine and stress them with the ER stressor thapsigargin (TG). A correlation of STED and NanoSIMS allows the localization of individual SGs (using STED), and their protein turnover can then be extracted based on the 15N/14N ratio (using NanoSIMS). We found that TG-induced SGs, which are highly dynamic domains, recruit their constituents predominantly from the cytoplasm. Moreover, ER stress impairs the total cellular protein turnover regimen, and this impairment is not restored after the commonly proceeded stress recovery period.

Abstract
Understanding the protein dynamics of a drug target is important for pharmaceutical research because it provides insight into drug design, target engagement, pharmacodynamics and drug efficacy. Nonradioactive isotope labeling has been the method of choice for protein turnover measurement thanks to the advancement of high-resolution mass spectrometry. While the changes in proteome in cell cultures can be monitored precisely, as the culture media can be completely replaced with 2 H-, 15 N- or 13 C-labeled essential amino acids, quantifying rates of protein synthesis in vivo is more challenging. The amount of isotope tracer that can be administered into the body is relatively small compared with the existing protein, thus requiring more sensitive detection, and the precursor-product labeling relationship is more complicated to interpret. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the principles of in vivo protein turnover studies using deuterium water (2 H2 O) with an emphasis on targeted protein analysis by hybrid LC-MS assay platforms. The pursuit of these opportunities will facilitate drug discovery and research in preclinical and clinical stages.

Abstract
Nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUE) and lysine utilization efficiency (LUE) are key indicators of sustainable pork production and vary depending on nutritional and non-nutritional factors. The objective was to study NUE and LUE together with concentrations of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and other metabolites in growing pigs fed diets with marginal Lys concentrations at 11-13 wk (40.5 kg mean BW) and 14 to 16 wk (60.2 kg mean BW). The cereal grain-soybean meal-based diets contained 10.6 and 7.9 g Lys/kg DM in periods 1 and 2, respectively. Feed intake and BW were measured for 508 individually penned pigs, and blood samples were collected 5 h after morning feeding at weeks 13 and 16. A subgroup of 48 barrows was used in a nitrogen (N) metabolism trial at weeks 13 and 16. In this subgroup, the mean N retention of pigs (27.3 g N/d) and mean LUE (70%) were not different between the periods, but NUE was higher in period 1 (47%) than in period 2 (43%) (P < 0.001). After administration of a single dose of 15N labeled glycine and measurement of 15N recovery in urine, the calculated whole-body protein turnover did not differ between the periods. The rate of protein synthesis was positively correlated with NUE (P < 0.001), but protein degradation was not. Excretion of urea-N in urine accounted for 80% of the total urinary N and was positively correlated with BUN. The N retention of all 508 pigs was estimated using an equation that was derived from the N metabolism data. N retention was on average 31.4 g/d, equal in both periods, and higher in barrows than in gilts in period 2, but not in period 1 (P = 0.003). The calculated NUE was, on average, 47% and was lower in barrows than in gilts (P < 0.001) and higher in period 1 than in period 2 (P < 0.001). The calculated LUE was, on average, 71%, and was lower in barrows than in gilts in period 2, but not in period 1 (P < 0.001). The BUN concentration was higher in barrows than in gilts (P < 0.001) and higher in period 1 than in period 2 (P < 0.001). BUN concentration was negatively correlated with NUE in Periods 1 (r = -0.50) and 2 (r = -0.15) (P < 0.05). We concluded that the maximum LUE was in the range of 70-72% under the conditions of this study, and only small differences between the periods and sexes existed. Protein synthesis, rather than degradation, appears to affect NUE. BUN concentration may be useful for estimating NUE in a large group of animals fed a diet with a marginal Lys concentration.

Abstract
Introduction Holstein steers (n = 32) were used to determine if the ergot analog, bromocriptine decreases muscle protein synthesis through inhibitory action on the mTOR pathway via a direct effect on signal proteins, and if these negative effects can be alleviated with anabolic agents. Methods Steers were treated with intramuscular administration of bromocriptine (vehicle or 0.1 mg/kg BW) and a subdermal commercial steroidal implant containing trenbolone acetate (TBA) and estradiol 17β (with or without), in a 2×2 factorial design. During the 35 day experiment, intake was restricted to 1.5 times maintenance energy requirement. On days 27 through 32, steers were moved to metabolism stalls for urine collection, and whole-body protein turnover was determined using a single pulse dose of [15N] glycine into the jugular vein on day 28. On day 35, skeletal muscle samples were collected before (basal state) and 60 min after (stimulated state) an i.v. glucose challenge (0.25 g glucose/kg). Blood samples were collected at regular intervals before and after glucose infusion for determination of circulating concentrations of glucose and insulin. Results Bromocriptine reduced insulin and glucose clearance following the glucose challenge, indicating decreased insulin sensitivity and possible disruption of glucose uptake and metabolism in the skeletal muscle. Conversely, analysis of whole-body protein turnover demonstrated that bromocriptine does not appear to affect protein synthesis or urea excretion. Western immunoblot analysis of skeletal muscle showed that it did not affect abundance of S6K1 or 4E-BP1, so bromocriptine does not appear to inhibit activation of the mTOR pathway or protein synthesis. Estradiol/TBA implant decreased urea excretion and protein turnover but had no effect on protein synthesis, suggesting that steroidal implants promote protein accretion through unchanged rates of synthesis and decreased degradation, even in the presence of bromocriptine, resulting in improved daily gains. Implanted steers likely experienced increased IGF-1 signaling, but downstream activation of mTOR, S6K and 4E-BP1, and thus increased protein synthesis did not occur as expected. Conclusions Overall, this data suggests that bromocriptine does not have a negative impact on muscle protein synthetic pathways independent of DMI.

Abstract
The lifetime of proteins in synapses is important for their signaling, maintenance, and remodeling, and for memory duration. We quantified the lifetime of endogenous PSD95, an abundant postsynaptic protein in excitatory synapses, at single-synapse resolution across the mouse brain and lifespan, generating the Protein Lifetime Synaptome Atlas. Excitatory synapses have a wide range of PSD95 lifetimes extending from hours to several months, with distinct spatial distributions in dendrites, neurons, and brain regions. Synapses with short protein lifetimes are enriched in young animals and in brain regions controlling innate behaviors, whereas synapses with long protein lifetimes accumulate during development, are enriched in the cortex and CA1 where memories are stored, and are preferentially preserved in old age. Synapse protein lifetime increases throughout the brain in a mouse model of autism and schizophrenia. Protein lifetime adds a further layer to synapse diversity and enriches prevailing concepts in brain development, aging, and disease.

Abstract
Mitochondrial biogenesis is tightly regulated in response to extracellular and intracellular signals, thereby adapting yeast cells to changes in their environment. The Hap2/3/4/5 complex is a master transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis in yeast. Hap4 is the regulatory subunit of the complex and exhibits increased expression when the Hap2/3/4/5 complex is activated. In cells grown under glucose derepression conditions, both the HAP4 transcript level and Hap4 protein level are increased. As part of an inter-organellar signaling mechanism coordinating gene expression between the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes, the activity of the Hap2/3/4/5 complex is reduced in respiratory-deficient cells, such as ρ0 cells lacking mitochondrial DNA, as a result of reduced Hap4 protein levels. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we show that reduced HAP4 expression in ρ0 cells is mediated through both transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. We show that loss of mitochondrial DNA increases the turnover of Hap4, which requires the 26S proteasome and ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes Ubc1 and Ubc4. Stabilization of Hap4 in the ubc1 ubc4 double mutant leads to increased expression of Hap2/3/4/5-target genes. Our results indicate that mitochondrial biogenesis in yeast is regulated by the functional state of mitochondria partly through ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent turnover of Hap4.

Abstract
Stochastic, intensity-based precursor isolation can result in isotopically enriched fragment ions. This problem is exacerbated for large peptides and stable isotope labeling experiments using deuterium or 15N. For stable isotope labeling experiments, incomplete and ubiquitous labeling strategies result in the isolation of peptide ions composed of many distinct structural isomers. Unfortunately, existing proteomics search algorithms do not account for this variability in isotopic incorporation, and thus often yield poor peptide and protein identification rates. We sought to resolve this shortcoming by deriving the expected isotopic distributions of each fragment ion and incorporating them into the theoretical mass spectra used for peptide-spectrum-matching. We adapted the Comet search platform to integrate a modified spectral prediction algorithm we term Conditional fragment Ion Distribution Search (CIDS). Comet-CIDS uses a traditional database searching strategy, but for each candidate peptide we compute the isotopic distribution of each fragment to better match the observed m/z distributions. Evaluating previously generated D2O and 15N labeled data sets, we found that Comet-CIDS identified more confident peptide spectral matches and higher protein sequence coverage compared to traditional theoretical spectra generation, with the magnitude of improvement largely determined by the amount of labeling in the sample.

Abstract
Many human diseases are caused by mutations in nuclear envelope (NE) proteins. How protein homeostasis and disease etiology are interconnected at the NE is poorly understood. Specifically, the identity of local ubiquitin ligases that facilitate ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent NE protein turnover is presently unknown. Here, we employ a short-lived, Lamin B receptor disease variant as a model substrate in a genetic screen to uncover key elements of NE protein turnover. We identify the ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) Ube2G2 and Ube2D3, the membrane-resident ubiquitin ligases (E3s) RNF5 and HRD1, and the poorly understood protein TMEM33. RNF5, but not HRD1, requires TMEM33 both for efficient biosynthesis and function. Once synthesized, RNF5 responds dynamically to increased substrate levels at the NE by departing from the endoplasmic reticulum, where HRD1 remains confined. Thus, mammalian protein quality control machinery partitions between distinct cellular compartments to address locally changing substrate loads, establishing a robust cellular quality control system.

Abstract
N-terminal acetylation (NTA) is an ancient protein modification conserved throughout all domains of life. N-terminally acetylated proteins are present in the cytosol, the nucleus, the plastids, mitochondria and the plasma membrane of plants. The frequency of NTA differs greatly between these subcellular compartments. While up to 80% of cytosolic and 20-30% of plastidic proteins are subject to NTA, NTA of mitochondrial proteins is rare. NTA alters key characteristics of proteins such as their three-dimensional structure, binding properties and lifetime. Since the majority of proteins is acetylated by five ribosome-bound N-terminal acetyltransferases (Nats) in yeast and humans, NTA was long perceived as an exclusively co-translational process in eukaryotes. The recent characterization of post-translationally acting plant Nats, which localize to the plasma membrane and the plastids, has challenged this view. Moreover, findings in humans, yeast, green algae and higher plants uncover differences in the cytosolic Nat machinery of photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic eukaryotes. These distinctive features of the plant Nat machinery might constitute adaptations to the sessile lifestyle of plants. This review sheds light on the unique role of plant N-acetyltransferases in development and stress responses as well as their evolution-driven adaptation to function in different cellular compartments.

Abstract
The synthesis of new proteins and the degradation of old proteins in vivo can be quantified in serial samples using metabolic isotope labeling to measure turnover. Because serial biopsies in humans are impractical, we set out to develop a method to calculate the turnover rates of proteins from single human biopsies. This method involved a new metabolic labeling approach and adjustments to the calculations used in previous work to calculate protein turnover. We demonstrate that using a nonequilibrium isotope enrichment strategy avoids the time dependent bias caused by variable lag in label delivery to different tissues observed in traditional metabolic labeling methods. Turnover rates are consistent for the same subject in biopsies from different labeling periods, and turnover rates calculated in this study are consistent with previously reported values. We also demonstrate that by measuring protein turnover we can determine where proteins are synthesized. In human subjects a significant difference in turnover rates differentiated proteins synthesized in the salivary glands versus those imported from the serum. We also provide a data analysis tool, DeuteRater-H, to calculate protein turnover using this nonequilibrium metabolic 2H2O method.

Abstract
Survivin is a component of the chromosomal passenger complex, which includes Aurora B, INCENP, and Borealin, and is required for chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. We performed a genome-wide screen of deubiquitinating enzymes for survivin. For the first time, we report that USP19 has a dual role in the modulation of mitosis and tumorigenesis by regulating survivin expression. Our results found that USP19 stabilizes and interacts with survivin in HCT116 cells. USP19 deubiquitinates survivin protein and extends its half-life. We also found that USP19 functions as a mitotic regulator by controlling the downstream signaling of survivin protein. Targeted genome knockout verified that USP19 depletion leads to several mitotic defects, including cytokinesis failure. In addition, USP19 depletion results in significant enrichment of apoptosis and reduces the growth of tumors in the mouse xenograft. We envision that simultaneous targeting of USP19 and survivin in oncologic drug development would increase therapeutic value and minimize redundancy.

Abstract
Despite having a highly reduced genome, Chlamydia trachomatis undergoes a complex developmental cycle in which the bacteria differentiate between the following two functionally and morphologically distinct forms: the infectious, nonreplicative elementary body (EB) and the noninfectious, replicative reticulate body (RB). The transitions between EBs and RBs are not mediated by division events that redistribute intracellular proteins. Rather, both primary (EB to RB) and secondary (RB to EB) differentiation likely require bulk protein turnover. One system for targeted protein degradation is the trans-translation system for ribosomal rescue, where polypeptides stalled during translation are marked with an SsrA tag encoded by a hybrid tRNA-mRNA, tmRNA. ClpX recognizes the SsrA tag, leading to ClpXP-mediated degradation. We hypothesize that ClpX functions in chlamydial differentiation through targeted protein degradation. We found that mutation of a key residue (R230A) within the specific motif in ClpX associated with the recognition of SsrA-tagged substrates resulted in abrogated secondary differentiation while not reducing chlamydial replication or developmental cycle progression as measured by transcripts. Furthermore, inhibition of trans-translation through chemical and targeted genetic approaches also impeded chlamydial development. Knockdown of tmRNA and subsequent complementation with an allele mutated in the SsrA tag closely phenocopied the overexpression of ClpXR230A, thus suggesting that ClpX recognition of SsrA-tagged substrates plays a critical function in secondary differentiation. Taken together, these data provide mechanistic insight into the requirements for transitions between chlamydial developmental forms. IMPORTANCE Chlamydia trachomatis is the leading cause of bacterial sexually transmitted infections and preventable infectious blindness. This unique organism undergoes developmental transitions between infectious, nondividing forms and noninfectious, dividing forms. Therefore, the chlamydial developmental cycle is an attractive target for Chlamydia-specific antibiotics, which would minimize effects of broad-spectrum antibiotics on the spread of antibiotic resistance in other organisms. However, the lack of knowledge about chlamydial development on a molecular level impedes the identification of specific, druggable targets. This work describes a mechanism through which both the fundamental processes of trans-translation and proteomic turnover by ClpXP contribute to chlamydial differentiation, a critical facet of chlamydial growth and survival. Given the almost universal presence of trans-translation and ClpX in eubacteria, this mechanism may be conserved in developmental cycles of other bacterial species. Additionally, this study expands the fields of trans-translation and Clp proteases by emphasizing the functional diversity of these systems throughout bacterial evolution.

Abstract
Protein turnover maintains the proteome's functional integrity. Here, protein turnover efficiency over time in wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans was assessed using inverse [15N]-pulse labeling up to 7 days after the egg-laying phase at 20 °C. Isotopic analysis of some abundant proteins was executed favoring data quality over quantity for mathematical modeling. Surprisingly, isotopic enrichment over time reached an upper limit showing an apparent cessation of protein renewal well before death, with protein fractions inaccessible to turnover ranging from 14 to 83%. For life span modulation, worms were raised at different temperatures after egg laying. Mathematical modeling of isotopic enrichment points either to a slowdown of protein turnover or to an increasing protein fraction resistant to turnover with time. Most notably, the estimated time points of protein turnover cessation from our mathematical model were highly correlated with the observed median life span. Thrashing and pumping rates over time were linearly correlated with isotopic enrichment, therefore linking protein/tracer intake to protein turnover rate and protein life span. If confirmed, life span extension is possible by optimizing protein turnover rate through modulating protein intake in C. elegans and possibly other organisms. While proteome maintenance benefits from a high protein turnover rate, protein turnover is fundamentally energy-intensive, where oxidative stress contributes to damage that it is supposed to repair.

Abstract
Myosin and myosin-binding protein C are exquisitely organized into giant filamentous macromolecular complexes within cardiac muscle sarcomeres, yet these proteins must be continually replaced to maintain contractile fidelity. The overall hypothesis that myosin filament structure is dynamic and allows for the stochastic replacement of individual components was tested in vivo, using a combination of mass spectrometry- and fluorescence-based proteomic techniques. Adult mice were fed a diet that marked all newly synthesized proteins with a stable isotope-labeled amino acid. The abundance of unlabeled and labeled proteins was quantified by high-resolution mass spectrometry over an 8-week period. The rates of change in the abundance of these proteins were well described by analytical models in which protein synthesis defined stoichiometry and protein degradation was governed by the stochastic selection of individual molecules. To test whether the whole myosin filaments or the individual components were selected for replacement, cardiac muscle was chemically skinned to remove the cellular membrane and myosin filaments were solubilized with ionic solutions. The composition of the filamentous and soluble fractions was quantified by mass spectrometry, and filament depolymerization was visualized by real-time fluorescence microscopy. Myosin molecules were preferentially extracted from ends of the filaments in the presence of the ionic solutions, and there was only a slight bias in the abundance of unlabeled molecules toward the innermost region on the myosin filaments. These data demonstrate for the first time that the newly synthesized myosin and myosin-binding protein C molecules are randomly mixed into preexisting thick filaments in vivo and the rate of mixing may not be equivalent along the length of the thick filament. These data collectively support a new model of cardiac myosin filament structure, with the filaments being dynamic macromolecular assemblies that allow for replacement of their components, rather than rigid bodies.

Abstract
African trypanosomes evade the immune system of the mammalian host by the antigenic variation of the predominant glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored surface protein, variant surface glycoprotein (VSG). VSG is a very stable protein that is turned over from the cell surface with a long half-life (~26 h), allowing newly synthesized VSG to populate the surface. We have recently demonstrated that VSG turnover under normal growth is mediated by a combination of GPI hydrolysis and direct shedding with intact GPI anchors. VSG synthesis is tightly regulated in dividing trypanosomes, and when subjected to RNA interference (RNAi) silencing, cells display rapid cell cycle arrest in order to conserve VSG density on the cell surface (K. Sheader, S. Vaughan, J. Minchin, K. Hughes, et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:8716-8721, 2005, https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.0501886102). Arrested cells also display an altered morphology of secretory organelles-engorgement of the trans-Golgi cisternae-that may reflect a disruption of post-Golgi secretory transport. We now ask whether trypanosomes under VSG silencing also reduce the rate of VSG turnover to further conserve coat density. Our data indicate that trypanosomes do not regulate VSG turnover according to VSG protein abundance, nor was there any effect on the post-Golgi transport of soluble or GPI-anchored secretory cargo. However, the surface morphology of silenced cells was altered from a typically rugose topology to a smoother profile, consistent with reduced overall membrane trafficking to the cell surface. IMPORTANCE African trypanosomes evade the host immune system by altering the expression of variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs) in a process called antigenic variation. VSG is essential, and when its synthesis is ablated by RNAi silencing, cells enter precytokinesis growth arrest as a means to maintain constant cell surface VSG levels. We have investigated whether arrested cells also alter the rate of natural VSG turnover as a means to conserve the surface coat. This work provides insights into the natural biology of the glycocalyx of this important human and veterinary parasite.

Abstract
CONTEXT Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is implicated in skeletal muscle wasting and in regulating skeletal muscle hypertrophy in the healthy state. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to determine the role of IL-6 in regulating systemic protein and amino acid metabolism during rest, exercise, and recovery in lean and obese humans. METHODS In a nonrandomized, single-blind design, 12 lean and 9 obese individuals were infused first with 0.9% saline (Saline), secondly with the IL-6 receptor antibody tocilizumab (Acute IL-6R ab), and 21 days later with saline while still under tocilizumab influence (Chronic IL-6R ab). Outcome measures were determined before, during, and after 90 minutes of exercise at 40% Wattmax by isotope dilution technique, using primed continuous infusion of L-[ring-D5]phenylalanine and L-[D2]tyrosine. Main outcomes measures included systemic protein turnover and plasma amino acid concentrations. RESULTS We saw no effect of acute or chronic IL-6 receptor blockade on protein turnover. In lean individuals, chronic IL-6 receptor blockade increased plasma concentrations of total amino acids (rest Δ + 186 μmol/L; 95% CI, 40-332; recovery Δ + 201 μmol/L; 95% CI, 55-347) and essential amino acids (rest Δ + 43 μmol/L; 95% CI, 12-76; recovery Δ + 45 μmol/L; 95% CI, 13-77) independently of exercise but had no such effect in obese individuals (total amino acids rest Δ + 63 μmol/L; 95% CI, -170 to 295, recovery Δ - 23 μmol/L, 95% CI, -256 to 210; essential amino acids rest Δ + 26 μmol/L; 95% CI, -21 to 73, recovery Δ + 11 μmol/L; 95% CI, -36 to 58). CONCLUSION IL-6 receptor blockade has no effect on protein turnover in fasting lean and obese humans during rest, exercise, and recovery. Chronic IL-6 receptor blockade increases total and essential amino acid concentrations only in lean individuals.

Abstract
Changes in the abundance of individual proteins in the proteome can be elicited by modulation of protein synthesis (the rate of input of newly synthesized proteins into the protein pool) or degradation (the rate of removal of protein molecules from the pool). A full understanding of proteome changes therefore requires a definition of the roles of these two processes in proteostasis, collectively known as protein turnover. Because protein turnover occurs even in the absence of overt changes in pool abundance, turnover measurements necessitate monitoring the flux of stable isotope–labeled precursors through the protein pool such as labeled amino acids or metabolic precursors such as ammonium chloride or heavy water. In cells in culture, the ability to manipulate precursor pools by rapid medium changes is simple, but for more complex systems such as intact animals, the approach becomes more convoluted. Individual methods bring specific complications, and the suitability of different methods has not been comprehensively explored. In this study, we compare the turnover rates of proteins across four mouse tissues, obtained from the same inbred mouse strain maintained under identical husbandry conditions, measured using either [13C6]lysine or [2H2]O as the labeling precursor. We show that for long-lived proteins, the two approaches yield essentially identical measures of the first-order rate constant for degradation. For short-lived proteins, there is a need to compensate for the slower equilibration of lysine through the precursor pools. We evaluate different approaches to provide that compensation. We conclude that both labels are suitable, but careful determination of precursor enrichment kinetics in amino acid labeling is critical and has a considerable influence on the numerical values of the derived protein turnover rates. Controlled comparison of heavy water or amino acid labeling for protein turnover. Delays in amino acid precursor labeling mostly affect high turnover proteins Both methods produced similar turnover rates after adjustment of precursor kinetics. Recommendations for analytical workflows for protein turnover studies in animals.

Abstract
Photoinhibitory high light stress in plants leads to increases in markers of protein degradation and transcriptional up-regulation of proteases and proteolytic machinery, but protein homeostasis (proteostasis) of most enzymes is largely maintained under high light, so we know little about the metabolic consequences of it beyond photosystem damage. We developed a technique to look for rapid protein turnover events in response to high light through 13C partial labeling and detailed peptide mass spectrometry. This analysis reveals a light-induced transcriptional program for nuclear-encoded genes, beyond the regulation of photosystem II, to replace key protein degradation targets in plants and ensure proteostasis under high light stress. Photoinhibitory high light stress in Arabidopsis leads to increases in markers of protein degradation and transcriptional up-regulation of proteases and proteolytic machinery, but proteostasis is largely maintained. We find significant increases in the in vivo degradation rate for specific molecular chaperones, nitrate reductase, glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase, and phosphoglycerate kinase and other plastid, mitochondrial, peroxisomal, and cytosolic enzymes involved in redox shuttles. Coupled analysis of protein degradation rates, mRNA levels, and protein abundance reveal that 57% of the nuclear-encoded enzymes with higher degradation rates also had high light–induced transcriptional responses to maintain proteostasis. In contrast, plastid-encoded proteins with enhanced degradation rates showed decreased transcript abundances and must maintain protein abundance by other processes. This analysis reveals a light-induced transcriptional program for nuclear-encoded genes, beyond the regulation of the photosystem II (PSII) D1 subunit and the function of PSII, to replace key protein degradation targets in plants and ensure proteostasis under high light stress.

Abstract
Decreased skeletal muscle contractile activity (disuse) or unloading leads to muscle mass loss, also known as muscle atrophy. The balance between muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and muscle protein breakdown (MPB) is the primary determinant of skeletal muscle mass. A reduced mechanical load on skeletal muscle is one of the main external factors leading to muscle atrophy. However, endocrine and inflammatory factors can act synergistically in catabolic states, amplifying the atrophy process and accelerating its progression. Additionally, older individuals display aging-induced anabolic resistance, which can predispose this population to more pronounced effects when exposed to periods of reduced physical activity or mechanical unloading. Different cellular mechanisms contribute to the regulation of muscle protein balance during skeletal muscle atrophy. This review summarizes the effects of muscle disuse on muscle protein balance and the molecular mechanisms involved in muscle atrophy in the absence or presence of disease. Finally, a discussion of the current literature describing efficient strategies to prevent or improve the recovery from muscle atrophy is also presented.

Abstract
Nano secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS) imaging is a rapidly growing field in biological sciences, which enables investigators to describe the chemical composition of cells and tissues with high resolution. One of the major challenges of nanoSIMS is to identify specific molecules or organelles, as these are not immediately recognizable in nanoSIMS and need to be revealed by SIMS-compatible probes. Few laboratories have generated such probes, and none are commercially available. To address this, we performed a systematic study of probes initially developed for electron microscopy. Relying on nanoscale SIMS, we found that antibodies coupled to 6 nm gold particles are surprisingly efficient in terms of labeling specificity while offering a reliable detection threshold. These tools enabled accurate visualization and sample analysis and were easily employed in correlating SIMS with other imaging approaches, such as fluorescence microscopy. We conclude that antibodies conjugated to moderately sized gold particles are promising tools for SIMS imaging.

Abstract
N-terminal acetylation is one of the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes, and approximately 40% of human and plant proteomes are acetylated by ribosome-associated N-terminal acetyltransferase A (NatA) in a co-translational manner. However, the in vivo regulatory mechanism of NatA and the global impact of NatA-mediated N-terminal acetylation on protein fate remain unclear. Here, we identify Huntingtin Yeast partner K (HYPK), an evolutionarily conserved chaperone-like protein, as a positive regulator of NatA activity in rice. We found that loss of OsHYPK function leads to developmental defects in rice plant architecture but increased resistance to abiotic stresses, attributable to perturbation of the N-terminal acetylome and accelerated global protein turnover. Furthermore, we demonstrated that OsHYPK is also a substrate of NatA and that N-terminal acetylation of OsHYPK promotes its own degradation, probably through the Ac/N-degron pathway, which could be induced by abiotic stresses. Taken together, our findings suggest that the OsHYPK-NatA complex plays a critical role in coordinating plant development and stress responses by dynamically regulating NatA-mediated N-terminal acetylation and global protein turnover, which are essential for maintaining adaptive phenotypic plasticity in rice.

Abstract
A major challenge in managing depression is that antidepressant drugs take a long time to exert their therapeutic effects. For the development of faster acting therapies, it is crucial to get an improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying antidepressant mode of action. Here, we used a novel mass spectrometry-based workflow to investigate how antidepressant treatment affects brain protein turnover at single cell and subcellular resolution. We combined stable isotope metabolic labeling, quantitative Tandem Mass Spectrometry (qTMS) and Multi-isotope Imaging Mass Spectrometry (MIMS) to simultaneously quantify and image protein synthesis and turnover in hippocampi of mice treated with the antidepressant paroxetine. We identified changes in turnover of individual hippocampal proteins that reveal altered metabolism-mitochondrial processes and report on subregion-specific turnover patterns upon paroxetine treatment. This workflow can be used to investigate brain protein turnover changes upon pharmacological interventions at a resolution and precision that has not been possible with other methods to date. Our results reveal acute paroxetine effects on brain protein turnover and shed light on antidepressant mode of action. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
