3 Yoshinori Ohsumi Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine - Dr. Ohsumi's work provided the basis for understanding autophagy, or how cells degrade and recycle their molecular trash I don t feel comfortable competing with many people, and instead I find it more enjoyable doing something nobody else is doing. In a way, that s what science is all about, and the joy of finding something inspires me. Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi from Tokyo Institute of Technology 3

18 The ULK-Atg13 complexes mediate mtor signaling to the autophagy machinery S757 Jung et. al. MBC,

19 The ULK is an autophagy initiation kinase that is conserved in metazoan (Positive regulator of Hedgehog pathway) (Neural stem cell regulation) Jung et. al. FEBS letter,

20 ULK kinase is a molecular sensor in autophagy/mitophagy induction by integrating AMPK and mtor pathway - ULK1 plays critical role in autophagic clearance of mitochondria in reticulocytes (Kundu et al, Blood, 2008) - AMPK phosphorylates Ser317 and Ser 777 of ULK1 to activate autophagy in glucose starvation (Kim et al, Nature Cell Biol, 2011) - AMPK phosphorylate Ser555 of ULK1 to induce mitophagy (Egan et al, Science, 2011) S317, S777 S555 S757 Egan et al, Science,

21 ULK kinase translocate into mitochondria to induce mitophagy upon stress - S555 phosphorylation of ULK1 by AMPK kinase is critical for translocation of ULK1 into mitochondria and mitophagy induction upon hypoxia (Tian et al, FEBS Letters, 2015) - ULK1 translocate into mitochondria upon hypoxia or FCCP mito stress and phosphorylate mitophagy receptor Fundc1 at S17 to induce mitophagy process (Wu et al, EMBO Rep, 2014) 21

23 Sestrins : Stress-inducible proteins Transcriptionally induced by hypoxia, genotoxic stress or oxidative stress (Budanov et al, Oncogene 2002) Sestrin1/2 prevent oxidative damage by activating Nrf2/Keap1 pathway (Bae et al, Cell Metab. 2013) Sesn3 can activate Akt via mtorc2 to regulate hepatic insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism (Tao et al, Diabetes 2015) Sestrins interact with GATOR2 and negatively regulate mtorc1 in amino acid sensing pathway (Chantranupong et al, Cell Rep. 2015) - GATOR2 complex (WDR24, WDR59, Mios, Sec13 and Seh1L) - GATOR1 complex (DEPDC5, Nprl2 and Nprl3) Parmigiani et al, Int Rev Cell Mol Biol,

24 Sestrins : Stress-inducible proteins Sestrin induces autophagy by activating AMPK and inhibiting mtorc1 in Drosophila and mammals (Lee et al, Science, 2010, Lee et al, Cell Metabolism, 2012) Ho et al, Trends Biochem Sci,

25 ULK1 phosphorylates p62 at S403 and Sestrin2 promotes ULK1 mediated p62 phosphorylation Ro et al, FEBS J,

26 ULK1 phosphorylates Sestrin2 and inhibit mtorc1 through enhancing Sestrin2-GATOR2 binding Kimball et al, Cell Signal,

33 ULK1-Sestrin2 signaling in adipose autophagy and metabolism 33

34 - Autophagy signaling Summary : Part I 1. Autophagy (Self-eating) is induced by stress and requires 18 Atg proteins for autophagosome formation 2. mtorc1 suppresses autophagy by phosphorylating ULK1- Atg13-Fip200 complex under nutrient rich conditions 3. AMPK induce autophagy/mitophagy by inhibiting mtorc1 and activating ULK1 autophagy kinase 4. Sestrins can directly activate AMPK and suppress mtor through GATOR complexes 5. Sestrin2 promotes ULK1 mediated p62 phosphorylation at Ser ULK1-Sestrin2 induce autophagy in adipose tissue and consequently contribute on insulin/glucose and fat metabolism 34

45 Summary : Part II -Oxidative metabolism 1. Sestrins are involved in the regeneration of Prxs 2. Sestrin2 is an alkylhydroperoxidase forming sulfenylation intermediate of Cys125 when induced by cumene hydroperoxides 3. Sestrin2 Tg mice developed the whitening of BAT due to decreased UCP1 although with increased mitochondria contents 4. Sestrin2 as well as antioxidants inhibits UCP1 expression through suppressing ROS in BAT 5. ROS plays critical role in UCP1 expression and thermogenesis 6. Maintaining physiological level of Sestrin2 and ROS is important for adipocyte metabolism 45
