T-complex protein-1 (TCP1) is a group II chaperonin, known to fold various proteins like actin and tubulin. In Leishmania donovani only one subunit that is gamma subunit (LdTCP1γ) has been functionally characterized as a homo-oligomeric complex that exhibits ATP-dependent protein folding. The gene is essential for the survival and infectivity of the parasite. Leishmania parasite releases extracellular vesicles (EVs) containing numerous virulence factors, which play an essential role in parasite pathogenesis and modulate host immune cell signaling. The present study demonstrates that LdTCP1γ is secreted in the EVs and modulates host macrophage functions. EVs isolated from LdTCP1γ single-allele-replacement mutants significantly upregulate the microbicidal function of LPS-induced macrophage as evident by increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6), iNOS and NO production. Further, the comparative proteomics of wild-type and single-allele-replacement mutant EVs showed that out of 876 identified proteins, 207 were significantly modulated. Among them, the top 50 modulated and abundantly secreted proteins constitute ∼40% of the total identified protein intensity and include virulence factors such as GP63, peroxiredoxin, enolase, HSP70, elongation factor 2, amastin, eukaryotic translation initiation factor and α-tubulin. The comparative proteomic analysis revealed that the proteome enrichment of the EVs from LdTCP1γ single-allele replacement mutants significantly differs from wild-type EVs, which may be responsible for the altered host microbicidal responses. Thus, our data provide new insight into the role of LdTCP1γ in EVs-mediated host-parasite interactions.
T 复合物蛋白-1(TCP1)是一种 II 类分子伴侣,已知其可折叠肌动蛋白和微管蛋白等多种蛋白质。在利什曼原虫中,只有一个亚基,即γ亚基(LdTCP1γ)在功能上被表征为具有展示 ATP 依赖性蛋白折叠的同源寡聚复合物。该基因对寄生虫的存活和感染力至关重要。利什曼原虫寄生虫释放含有多种毒力因子的细胞外囊泡(EVs),这些因子在寄生虫发病机制中发挥重要作用,并调节宿主免疫细胞信号。本研究表明,LdTCP1γ在 EVs 中分泌,并调节宿主巨噬细胞功能。从 LdTCP1γ单等位基因替换突变体分离的 EVs 显著上调 LPS 诱导的巨噬细胞的杀菌功能,表现为促炎细胞因子(TNF-α、IL-6)、iNOS 和 NO 产生水平增加。此外,野生型和单等位基因替换突变体 EVs 的比较蛋白质组学显示,在鉴定的 876 种蛋白质中,有 207 种蛋白质显著被调节。其中,前 50 个被调节和大量分泌的蛋白质构成总鉴定蛋白质强度的约 40%,并包括毒力因子,如 GP63、过氧化物酶、烯醇酶、HSP70、延伸因子 2、amastin、真核翻译起始因子和α-微管蛋白。比较蛋白质组学分析表明,LdTCP1γ单等位基因替换突变体 EVs 的蛋白质组富集与野生型 EVs 显著不同,这可能是导致宿主杀菌反应改变的原因。因此,我们的数据为 LdTCP1γ在 EVs 介导的宿主-寄生虫相互作用中的作用提供了新的见解。
