Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Dehydrogenase Aggregate Formation Participates in Oxidative Stress-induced Cell Death

Abstract: Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)2 is a classic glycolytic enzyme that also mediates cell death by its nuclear translocation under oxidative stress. Meanwhile, we previously presented that oxidative stress induced disulfide-bonded GAPDH aggregation in vitro. Here, we propose that GAPDH aggregate formation might participate in oxidative stress-induced cell death both in vitro and in vivo. We show that human GAPDH amyloidlike aggregate formation depends on the active site cysteine-152 (Cys-152) in… Show more

“…A high increase (22%) in protein reactivity was evident with the radical-quinone mixture, indicating that redox cycling and ROS production may contribute to the observed results. Furthermore, GAPDH is known to be sensitive to ROS modification, and GAPDH aggregation is involved in dopaminergic models of oxidative stress-induced cell death (45). This makes the cross-linking observed here potentially relevant as a specific mechanism of toxicity for DOPAL.…”

“…Because of its role as a redox-sensitive enzyme involved in glucose metabolism and multiple external thiol residues (12) and its cellular proximity to DA metabolism, GAPDH serves as an appropriate target for modification by DOPAL. Also, DA-induced aggregation of GAPDH results in increased oxidative stress and cytotoxicity to dopaminergic cell models (44,45). Although both the DOPAL radical and quinone increased protein cross-linking, this effect was more pronounced for the radical (29%) than for the quinone (6%).…”

“…In vivo studies show that GAPDH converts from its native soluble state into a non-native high molecular weight insoluble state during disease (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20). For instance, insoluble aggregates of GAPDH have been observed in the affected tissues of patients with Alzheimer disease (13) and alcoholic liver cirrhosis (12).…”

“…Interestingly, GAPDH is also a susceptibility locus for late onset Alzheimer disease (21). Furthermore, robust aggregation of GAPDH has been detected in rodent models of motor neuron disease (17) and methamphetamine abuse (11). However, whether GAPDH aggregation is a causative factor of disease remains to be determined.…”
