AMP-activated Protein Kinase and p38 MAPK Activate O-GlcNAcylation of Neuronal Proteins during Glucose Deprivation

Open access

Abstract

We have demonstrated previously that a wide array of stress signals induces O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) expression and increases O-GlcNAcylation of many intracellular proteins, a response that is critical for cell survival. Here, we describe a mechanism by which glucose deprivation induces OGT expression and activity in Neuro-2a neuroblastoma cells. Glucose deprivation increases OGT mRNA and protein expression in an AMP-activated protein kinase-dependent manner, whereas OGT enzymatic activity is regulated in a p38 MAPK-dependent manner. OGT is not phosphorylated by p38, but rather it interacts directly with p38 through its C terminus; this interaction increases with p38 activation during glucose deprivation. Surprisingly, the catalytic activity of OGT, as measured toward peptide substrates, is not altered by glucose deprivation. Instead, p38 regulates OGT activity within the cell by recruiting it to specific targets, including neurofilament H. Neurofilament H is O-GlcNAcylated during glucose deprivation in a p38-dependent manner. Interestingly, neurofilament H solubility is increased by glucose deprivation in an O-GlcNAc-dependent manner, suggesting that O-GlcNAcylation of neurofilament H regulates its disassembly from filaments. Not only do these data help to reveal how OGT is regulated by stress, but these findings also describe a possible mechanism by which defective brain glucose metabolism, as found in aging and ischemia, may directly affect axonal structure.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
