Abstract

In the human ocular lens it is now realized that post-translational modifications can alter protein function and/or localization in fiber cells that no longer synthesize proteins. The specific sites of post-translational modification to the abundant ocular lens membrane proteins AQP0 and MP20 have been previously identified and their functional effects are emerging. To further understand how changes in protein function and/or localization induced by these modifications alter lens homeostasis, it is necessary to determine the spatial distributions of these modifications across the lens. In this study, a quantitative LC-MS approach was used to determine the spatial distributions of phosphorylated AQP0 and MP20 peptides from manually dissected, concentric layers of fiber cells from young and aged human lenses. The absolute amounts of phosphorylation were determined for AQP0 Ser235 and Ser229 and for MP20 Ser170 in fiber cells from the lens periphery to the lens center. Phosphorylation of AQP0 Ser229 represented a minor portion of the total phosphorylated AQP0. Changes in spatial distributions of phosphorylated APQ0 Ser235 and MP20 Ser170 correlated with regions of physiological interest in aged lenses, specifically, where barriers to water transport and extracellular diffusion form.

摘要

在人眼晶状体中,目前已经认识到翻译后修饰可以改变不再合成蛋白质的纤维细胞中的蛋白质功能和/或定位。此前已确定了丰富的眼晶状体膜蛋白AQP0和MP20的翻译后修饰的特定位点,其功能效应也逐渐显现。为了进一步了解这些修饰引起的蛋白质功能和/或定位变化如何改变晶状体的稳态,有必要确定这些修饰在整个晶状体中的空间分布。在本研究中,采用定量液相色谱-质谱方法,从年轻和老年人类晶状体手动解剖的同心纤维细胞层中,测定磷酸化AQP0和MP20肽段的空间分布。测定了从晶状体周边到晶状体中心的纤维细胞中AQP0的Ser235和Ser229以及MP20的Ser170的磷酸化绝对量。AQP0的Ser229磷酸化占总磷酸化AQP0的一小部分。磷酸化的APQ0的Ser235和MP20的Ser170的空间分布变化与老年晶状体中具有生理意义的区域相关,特别是与形成水运输和细胞外扩散屏障的区域相关。
