Study TitleMeasuring TCA cycle directional fluxes using 13C6-glucose
Study SummaryThis study aimed to investigate the directionality of carbon flux through the TCA cycle in cells experiencing OXPHOS dysfunction, with and without SDHAF2 elevation, using 13C6-glucose tracer metabolomics. 13C-enrichment in TCA cycle intermediates was significantly reduced in cells with either a genetic (UQCRC1KO and UQCRC1/SDHAF2DKO)Antimycin A based OXPHOS dysfunction regardless of the presence of SDHAF2. Further detailed analysis of the isotopomer distribution in key TCA cycle intermediates revealed a decrease in isotopomers associated with operation of a canonical cyclic TCA in which carbon backbones cycle multiple times (e.g. leading to M+2, M+4 and M+6 citrate isotopomers, M+2, M+4 malate isotopomers) with a concomitant increase in the unlabeled (M+0) isotopomer of all TCA intermediates. Although SDHBKO cells followed a similar trend, the impact was relatively modest and consistent with their modest basal respiration rates compared to UQCRC1KO.

Project Title:Complex II assembly drives metabolic adaptation to OXPHOS dysfunction.
Project Summary:During acute oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) dysfunction, the reverse activity of succinate dehydrogenase (Complex II) maintains the redox state of Coenzyme Q by utilizing either fumarate or oxygen as terminal electron acceptors. The tendency for one over another has been suggested to be tissue-specific, but the underlying mechanism and consequence of this is unknown. Using quantitative proteomics to screen a panel of HEK293T knockout cell lines, we identified an increase in SDHAF2 protein, a Complex II assembly factor that enhances the flavination of catalytic subunit SDHA, as critical for metabolic adaptation during OXPHOS stress in HEK293T cells. Loss of SDHAF2 during Complex III inhibition resulted in a reduction in Complex II F-site derived reactive oxygen species (ROS), a severe growth impairment, and a net reductive TCA cycle driven by an inability of mitochondria to support additional Complex II assembly. This in turn leads to use of fumarate as terminal electron acceptor at the cost of a ROS-mediated switch to glycolysis. Cell lines adapted to glycolysis did not accumulate SDHAF2 upon OXPHOS stress and exhibited a net reductive TCA cycle and mild growth phenotypes with or without SDHAF2 being present. Thus, our study reveals how Complex II assembly controls a balance between protection of the Q-pool and ROS-meditated signaling during oxidative stress in cells reliant on mitochondrial OXPHOS.

Collection Summary:Cells were seeded at 50% confluency in 6-well dishes containing DMEM media (Thermo Scientific) 24 hours prior to the experiment.
Sample Type:HEK cells

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR004114
Treatment Summary:For stable isotopologue tracing of 13C6-glucose, 12C containing medium was replaced with glucose-free DMEM (Thermo Scientific) supplemented with 25 mM of 13C6-glucose (Merck), 1 mM Sodium pyruvate (Thermo Scientific), 10% FBS, 50 µg/mL uridine, and a mixture of 100 µg/mL streptomycin and 100 units/mL penicillin. After 8 hours of incubation in the tracer media, cells underwent polar metabolite extraction, as described in the subsequent sections. In relevant experiments, Antimycin A was introduced 8 hours prior to the addition of tracer and maintained until the completion of the experiment, respectively. Cells were then washed with PBS and snap-frozen by direct addition of liquid nitrogen.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP004111
Sampleprep Summary:Polar metabolites were extracted by adding 600 µL of HPLC grade methanol:chloroform mixture (9:1; [v/v]), containing internal standards 1.66μM 13C5,15N-valine and 1.66μM 13C-sorbitol mixture for LC-MS analysis. After 10 minutes incubation on ice, cells were harvested, and lysates centrifuged at 16,100 x g at 4°C for 5 minutes. For LC-MS a stream of N2 used to dry samples and were subsequently subjected to LC-MS analysis
