Article Title: The Campylobacter jejuni CiaD effector co-opts the host cell protein IQGAP1 to promote cell entry

doi: 10.1038/s41467-021-21579-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: A Human INT 407 cells expressing a non-targeting shRNA (NT) or shRNA targeting the 3′-UTR of IQGAP1 (930-C5) were serum-starved for 4 h, then infected with C. jejuni for 45 min. Samples were collected and analyzed by immunoblot for phosphorylated ERK and total ERK in parallel. A representative immunoblot is shown. Molecular weights are indicated in kDa. B The ratio between the intensity of the phospho-ERK and total-ERK bands were quantified from three independent biological replicates and plotted. Comparing pERK/tERK in non-targeting shRNA cells with and without C. jejuni p = 0.0069, and in IQGAP1 knockdown cells p = 0.0193. C We observed that in cells expressing non-targeting shRNA there was a robust activation of Rac1 in the presence of C. jejuni , and there was not a significant amount of activation of Rac1 in the IQGAP1 knockdown cells. Each symbol represents the results from a biological replicate ( n = 3 independent samples). Comparing Rac1-GTP levels in non-targeting shRNA cells with and without C. jejuni, p = 0.0339, and in IQGAP1 knockdown cells p = 0.8751. D A similar trend was observed for the amount of Cdc42 activation, where knockdown of IQGAP1 inhibited C. jejuni -induced Cdc42 activation. Each symbol represents the results from a biological replicate ( n = 3 independent samples). Comparing Cdc42-GTP levels in non-targeting shRNA cells with and without C. jejuni, p = 0.0435, and in IQGAP1 knockdown cells p = 0.7488. E IQGAP1 knockdown cells (930-C5) were transfected with constitutive active (CA), dominant-negative (DN) or wild-type (WT) Cdc42 and Rac1, and the amount of internalized C. jejuni was measured in each condition using a gentamicin protection assay ( n = 4 independent samples). The following comparisons were made on log-transformed counts: Cdc42-CA to Cdc42-WT ( p = 0.9650), Cdc42-DN to Cdc42-WT ( p = 0.0002), Rac1-CA to Rac1-WT ( p = <0.0001), Rac1-DN to Rac1-WT ( p = 0.7861). For all charts, bars represent the mean and error bars represent the standard deviation; significant differences were determined by ANOVA followed by a two-tailed Sidak’s multiple comparisons test (* p < 0.05).

Article Title: The Campylobacter jejuni CiaD effector co-opts the host cell protein IQGAP1 to promote cell entry

doi: 10.1038/s41467-021-21579-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: A IQGAP1 immunoprecipitations (IPs) were performed with INT 407 cells that were non-infected, infected with the C. jejuni F38011 wild-type strain, or infected with the C. jejuni ∆ ciaD mutant. Pull-downs were probed by immunoblot (IB) with antibodies for IQGAP1 and RacGAP1. The amount of RacGAP1 in the IQGAP1 complex was reduced during infection with the C. jejuni wild-type strain but not with the ∆ ciaD mutant. The amount of Erk 1/2 and Rac1 was not changed. The protein mixture used as the input for the IQGAP1 IPs were also probed for IQGAP1, RacGAP1, Erk 1/2, and Rac1 to determine initial protein abundance. Molecular weights are indicated in kDa. B Similar IQGAP1 IPs were performed with INT 407 cells that were non-infected, and infected with the C. jejuni 81–176 wild-type strain. Quantitation of the amount of RacGAP1 in three biologically independent IP experiments indicated that the amount of RacGAP1 in the IQGAP1 complex was reduced approximately 50% during infection with the C C. jejuni F38011 wild-type strain and the (* p = 0.0186) Molecular weights are indicated in kDa. D C. jejuni 81–176 wild-type strain. Bars represent the mean and error bars represent the standard deviation; significant differences from the non-infected samples were determined by ANOVA followed by a two-tailed Dunnet’s multiple comparisons test (* p = 0.0401).

Article Title: The Campylobacter jejuni CiaD effector co-opts the host cell protein IQGAP1 to promote cell entry

doi: 10.1038/s41467-021-21579-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: The first step in cellular invasion is the adherence of C. jejuni to the host fibronectin via the CadF and FlpA adhesins (gray dots on the C. jejuni ). Next, the C. jejuni flagellar-dependent effector proteins, including CiaD (orange circles), are delivered to the cytosol of the host cell. The combined action of bacterial adherence and the secreted effector proteins triggers activation (phosphorylation) of the focal adhesion components FAK, Src, and paxillin, which recruits vinculin. Focal adhesion signaling is integrated into actin remodeling signaling through the proteins p130Cas, CrkII, DOCK 180, Elmo, and Rac1. Cytosolic CiaD facilitates the activation of the Erk 1/2 signaling pathway, which results in the phosphorylation of cortactin. IQGAP1 serves as a binding partner of CiaD, and it facilitates the activation of Rac1 and Cdc42, further promoting actin reorganization and bacterial uptake through the proteins WAVE2, N-WASP, and Arp2/3. CiaD promotes Rac1 activation by excluding RacGAP1 from the IQGAP1 complex, preventing the deactivation of Rac1. Other literature has also provided support for the roles of EGFR, PDGFR, PI3K, Akt, HSP90α, GPCRs, PKC, Vav2, and Tiam-1 in coordinating bacterial uptake. Purple indicates the findings from this study.
