PG - 7584 LID - 10.1038/s41598-023-34728-1 [doi] LID - 7584 AB - The 90 kDa heat shock protein, Hsp90, functions as a cancer chaperone contributing to tumor proliferation. We have encountered the mitochondrial homolog of Hsp90, the TRAP-1, regulating mitochondrial dynamics, metabolism, and tumor metastasis. Although Hsp90 is associated with a broad network of proteins regulating various cellular processes, TRAP-1-mediated cellular networks are unclear. Therefore, using TRAP-1 knockdown (KD) and overexpression (OE) systems, we compared their quantitative transcriptome (RNA Sequencing) and proteomic (LC-MS/MS) patterns to obtain molecular signatures that are altered in response to TRAP-1 KD or OE. We report TRAP-1 modulating vital metabolic pathways such as the tricarboxylic acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport chain, glycolysis, and gluconeogenesis. In addition, TRAP-1 facilitated the pentose phosphate pathway to shunt carbons back to glycolysis or gluconeogenesis, a much-solicited tumor response. Subsequently, we examined the TRAP-1 interactome using the tandem affinity purification system and identified 255 unique proteins. These diverse proteins appear to regulate several cellular processes, including energy metabolism, suggesting that TRAP-1, in addition to metabolic rewiring, maintains mitochondrial integrity. Our study exposes the unknown functions of TRAP-1 in cancer cells. Systematic evaluation of TRAP-1 interactors may uncover novel regulatory mechanisms in disease aggression. Since metabolic inhibitors are emerging as potential anticancer agents, our study gains importance. CI - (c) 2023. The Author(s).
