    • We report the application of ancestral sequence reconstruction on coronavirus spike protein, resulting in stable and highly soluble ancestral scaffold antigens (AnSAs). The AnSAs interact with plasma of patients recovered from COVID-19 but do not bind to the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. Cryo-EM analysis of the AnSAs yield high resolution structures (2.6–2.8 Å) indicating a closed pre-fusion conformation in which all three receptor-binding domains (RBDs) are facing downwards. The structures reveal an intricate hydrogen-bonding network mediated by well-resolved loops, both within and across monomers, tethering the N-terminal domain and RBD together. We show that AnSA-5 can induce and boost a broad-spectrum immune response against the wild-type RBD as well as circulating variants of concern in an immune organoid model derived from tonsils. Finally, we highlight how AnSAs are potent scaffolds by replacing the ancestral RBD with the wild-type sequence, which restores ACE2 binding and increases the interaction with convalescent plasma.

  • Exploring the Role of the PDZ Domain in a Supramodule
  • 2021
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a large, dense and membraneless compartment of proteins associated below the postsynaptic membrane bilayer, and which constantly undergoes morphological alteration in response to synaptic activity. Formation of PSD is associated with liquid-liquid phase separation of scaffold proteins in complex with other PSD proteins. PSD-95, one of the most abundant scaffold proteins, contains five domains: PDZ1, PDZ2, PDZ3, Src homology 3 (SH3), and guanylate kinase-like (GK) domain. The domains are functionally divided in two supramodules: PDZ1-PDZ2 and PDZ3-SH3-GK (PSG). Multi-domain proteins are characterized through their isolated domains in most studies and represented by “beads on a string” model, which means that the function of a single domain is independent of the context. In this thesis, the properties of PDZ3 and PSG are compared to elucidate how and when PSD-95 can been characterized by the simple “beads on a string” model. Kinetic characterization of CRIPT binding to PDZ3 showed a two-state mechanism, but a more complex mechanism involving two conformational states upon binding to PSG. The results were consistent with recent structural findings of conformational changes in PSD-95, altogether showing that conformational transitions in supertertiary structures can shape the ligand-binding energy landscape and modulate protein-protein interactions. Next the allosteric networks in a PDZ:ligand complex were experimentally mapped, both in isolation and in the context of a supramodular structure. Data showed that allosteric networks in a PDZ3 domain has high dependency on the supertertiary structure. Furthermore, equilibrium and kinetic folding experiments were applied to demonstrate that the PDZ3 domain folds faster and independently from the SH3-GK tandem, which folds as one cooperative unit. However, concurrent folding of the PDZ3 domain slows down folding of SH3-GK by non-native interactions, resulting in an off-pathway folding intermediate. Finally, the interactome of PSG in PSD was mapped. PDZ3 and PSG show high specificity for peptides with type I PBM. Interestingly, two proteins called SynGap and AGRB1 only bind with high affinity to PSG and forms concentration dependent liquid droplets. The results show how context in terms of supertertiary structure alter affinity and function, and suggest a model for how PSD anchor to the postsynaptic membrane. Altogether, the findings in the thesis show that binding energy landscape, interactome, allosteric network, folding mechanism and phase separation are dependent on the context, which suggest that we need to be careful in interpretation of data obtained from isolated domains in multi-domain proteins.

  • An immune score reflecting pro- and anti-tumoural balance of tumour microenvironment has major prognostic impact and predicts immunotherapy response in solid cancers
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: EBioMedicine. - : Elsevier. - 2352-3964. ; 88
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Cancer immunity is based on the interaction of a multitude of cells in the spatial context of the tumour tissue. Clinically relevant immune signatures are therefore anticipated to fundamentally improve the accuracy in predicting disease progression.Methods: Through a multiplex in situ analysis we evaluated 15 immune cell classes in 1481 tumour samples. Single-cell and bulk RNAseq data sets were used for functional analysis and validation of prognostic and predictive associations.Findings: By combining the prognostic information of anti-tumoural CD8+ lymphocytes and tumour supportive CD68+CD163+ macrophages in colorectal cancer we generated a signature of immune activation (SIA). The prognostic impact of SIA was independent of conventional parameters and comparable with the state-of-art immune score. The SIA was also associated with patient survival in oesophageal adenocarcinoma, bladder cancer, lung adenocarcinoma and melanoma, but not in endometrial, ovarian and squamous cell lung carcinoma. We identified CD68+CD163+ macrophages as the major producers of complement C1q, which could serve as a surrogate marker of this macrophage subset. Consequently, the RNA-based version of SIA (ratio of CD8A to C1QA) was predictive for survival in independent RNAseq data sets from these six cancer types. Finally, the CD8A/C1QA mRNA ratio was also predictive for the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy.Interpretation: Our findings extend current concepts to procure prognostic information from the tumour immune microenvironment and provide an immune activation signature with high clinical potential in common human cancer types.

  • Divergent Age-Dependent Conformational Rearrangement within Aβ Amyloid Deposits in APP23, APPPS1, and AppNL-F Mice
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: ACS Chemical Neuroscience. - : AMER CHEMICAL SOC. - 1948-7193. ; 15:10, s. 2058-2069
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Amyloid plaques composed of fibrils of misfolded A beta peptides are pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). A beta fibrils are polymorphic in their tertiary and quaternary molecular structures. This structural polymorphism may carry different pathologic potencies and can putatively contribute to clinical phenotypes of AD. Therefore, mapping of structural polymorphism of A beta fibrils and structural evolution over time is valuable to understanding disease mechanisms. Here, we investigated how A beta fibril structures in situ differ in A beta plaque of different mouse models expressing familial mutations in the A beta PP gene. We imaged frozen brains with a combination of conformation-sensitive luminescent conjugated oligothiophene (LCO) ligands and A beta-specific antibodies. LCO fluorescence mapping revealed that mouse models APP23, APPPS1, and App(NL-F) have different fibril structures within A beta-amyloid plaques depending on the A beta PP-processing genotype. Co-staining with A beta-specific antibodies showed that individual plaques from APP23 mice expressing A beta PP Swedish mutation have two distinct fibril polymorph regions of core and corona. The plaque core is predominantly composed of compact A beta 40 fibrils, and the corona region is dominated by diffusely packed A beta 40 fibrils. Conversely, the A beta PP knock-in mouse App(NL-F), expressing the A beta PP Iberian mutation along with Swedish mutation has tiny, cored plaques consisting mainly of compact A beta 42 fibrils, vastly different from APP23 even at elevated age up to 21 months. Age-dependent polymorph rearrangement of plaque cores observed for APP23 and APPPS1 mice >12 months, appears strongly promoted by A beta 40 and was hence minuscule in App(NL-F). These structural studies of amyloid plaques in situ can map disease-relevant fibril polymorph distributions to guide the design of diagnostic and therapeutic molecules.

  • Design, structure and plasma binding of ancestral β-CoV scaffold antigens

    • The pandemic caused by Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has had devastating consequences on global health and economy. Despite the success of vaccination campaigns emerging variants are of concern and novel viruses with the potential to drive future pandemics are circulating in nature. Development of vaccines can be challenging, as key viral protein antigens can be unstable or aggregate. In this study, we present the application of ancestral sequence reconstruction on coronavirus spike protein, resulting in stable and highly soluble ancestral scaffold antigens (AnSAs). The AnSAs interacted with plasma of patients recovered from COVID-19 but did not bind to the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. Cryo-EM analysis of the AnSAs yielded high resolution structures (2.6-2.8 Å) indicating a closed pre-fusion conformation in which all three receptor-binding domains (RBDs) are facing downwards. This captured closed state is stabilised by an intricate hydrogen‑bonding network mediated by well-resolved loops, both within and across monomers, tethering the N‑terminal domain and RBD together, which determines their relative spatial orientation. Finally, we show how AnSAs are potent scaffolds by replacing the ancestral RBD with the Wuhan wild-type sequence, which restored ACE2 binding and increased the interaction with convalescent plasma. In contrast to rational antigen design depending on prior structural knowledge, our work highlights how stable and potentially interesting antigens can be generated using exclusively available sequence information.

  • Cell type-specific translatome analysis of mouse models of three genetic neurodegenerative diseases
  • 2023
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The burden neurodegenerative diseases place on patients, their loved ones, and the healthcare system is significant, and despite extensive research efforts, there is currently no cure. Since degenerative changes in the brain can begin years before symptoms appear, early intervention is critical. Additionally, neurodegenerative diseases target certain brain regions and neuron types early on. A more comprehensive understanding of the affected cells during the presymptomatic phase is therefore crucial for an effective and targeted intervention. Herein, we isolated, sequenced, and analyzed translatome samples from six neuronal cell types in knock-in mouse models of three monogenic neurodegenerative diseases at a presymptomatic stage: genetic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (gCJD), fatal familial insomnia (FFI), and Huntington’s disease (HD). To obtain the translatome samples, we used RiboTag to immunoprecipitate HA-tagged ribosomes with their translating mRNAs from targeted cell types. We analyzed six cell types across two brain regions: cerebral and cerebellar glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons, and cerebral parvalbumin (PV) and somatostatin (SST)-expressing neurons. In the first paper, we focused our analysis on the prion diseases, gCJD (E200K) and FFI (D178N). Here observed a similar response of SST+ neurons, a cell type not previously reported as affected, in both disease models. This was characterized by upregulation of ribosomeassociated genes, and downregulation of cytoskeleton and synapse-associated genes in FFI. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis of SST+ neurons pointed towards the downregulation of mTOR inhibition as a potential mechanism underlying the observed gene expression changes. In the second paper, we analyzed a 129S4-HdhQ200 knock-in mouse model of HD. Histological and behavioral assessment revealed pathological changes in the striatum and cerebellum at 9 months and a later, mild behavioral phenotype. Translatome analysis indicated a surprisingly strong response in reportedly resistant glutamatergic neurons of the cerebellum, marked by upregulation of cell cycle regulators Ccnd1 and chromobox protein genes. In the third paper, we aimed to compare disease-specific responses of PV+ neurons across the three disease models. This analysis revealed a milder response in HD compared to prion disease at comparable disease stages. Functional analysis further indicated PV+ neurons may respond differently in the investigated diseases, showing upregulation of immune response-associated pathways in gCJD, neurodegenerative-disease pathways in FFI, and autophagy in HD. Lastly, the generation of mouse models such as were used in papers I-III requires stable and predictable transgene expression without interfering with the expression of endogenous genes. In the fourth paper, we conducted a pilot study to compare three potential loci, Rpl6, Rpl7, and Eef1a1, as potential safe harbors for transgene integration. Preliminary results indicated that the Rpl6 locus may be best suited for our purposes. Furthermore, this work generated a novel dataset consisting of translatome profiles of six cell types in three neurodegenerative disease models. This provides gene expression data at a previously unavailable level of cellular resolution, especially in prion disease. We believe that this data will serve as a valuable resource for future research and help expand our understanding of the early molecular mechanisms in neurodegenerative disease beyond the scope of this thesis.

  • Transthyretin Binding Mode Dichotomy of Fluorescent trans-Stilbene Ligands
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: ACS Chemical Neuroscience. - : American Chemical Society (ACS). - 1948-7193. ; 14:5, s. 820-828

    • The orientations of ligands bound to the transthyretin (TTR) thyroxine (T4) binding site are difficult to predict. Conflicting binding modes of resveratrol have been reported. We previously reported two resveratrol based trans-stilbene fluorescent ligands, (E)-4-(2-(naphthalen-1-yl)vinyl)benzene-1,2-diol (SB-11) and (E)-4-(2-(naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl)-benzene-1,2-diol (SB-14), that bind native and misfolded protofibrillar TTR. The binding orientations of these two analogous ligands to native tetrameric TTR were predicted to be opposite. Herein we report the crystal structures of these TTR:ligand complexes. Opposite binding modes were verified but were different than predicted. The reverse binding mode (SB14) placing the naphthalene moiety toward the opening of the binding pocket renders the fluorescent ligand pH sensitive due to changes in Lys15 amine protonation. Conversely, the forward binding mode (SB-11) placing the naphthalene inward mediates a stabilizing conformational change, allowing intersubunit H-bonding between Ser117 of different monomers across the dimer interface. Our structures of TTR complexes answer important questions in ligand design and interpretation of trans-stilbene binding modes to the TTR T4 binding site.

  • Amino-Acid Side-Chain Nanoarchitectonics for Tuning the Chiroptical Properties and Supramolecular Structure of Pentameric Oligothiophenes
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: ChemPhotoChem. - : WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH. - 2367-0932.
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Oligothiophenes with specific photophysical properties and molecular organization are of great interest, since this class of materials are used in organic electronics and bioelectronics, as well as biosensing. Herein, 8 different pentameric oligothiophenes, denoted proteophenes, with different amino acid substitution patterns at distinct positions along the thiophene backbone were investigated. Spectroscopic and microscopic studies of the ligands revealed the formation of optically active self-assembled materials under acidic or basic conditions. The distinct photophysical characteristics, including induced circular dichroism, as well as the supramolecular structures of the assemblies deduced from light scattering and transmission electron microscopy, were highly influenced by the positioning of distinct amino acid moieties along the thiophene backbone. Proteophenes functionalized with only glutamate residues or these functionalities in combination with hydrophobic valine moieties formed fibrillar structures with excellent chiroptical properties under acidic conditions. In addition, the amino acid functionality at the beta-position of distinct thiophene moieties influenced the induced circular dichroism pattern observed from the proteophenes. Overall, the obtained results demonstrate how changes in the position of various amino acid functionalities, as well as the chemical nature of the amino acid side chain functionality greatly affect the optical properties as well as the architecture of the self-assembled materials. Self-assembled Proteophenes. Oligothiophenes with distinct amino acid side-chain functionalities along the conjugated backbone displayed distinct chiroptical and structural properties in acidic or alkaline solutions. The distinct photophysical characteristics, as well as the supramolecular structures of the assemblies were highly influenced by the chemical nature of the amino acid, as well as the positioning of distinct amino acid moieties along the thiophene backbone.image

    • Control over the photophysical properties and molecular organization of pi-conjugated oligothiophenes is essential to their use in organic electronics. Herein we synthesized and characterized a variety of anionic pentameric oligothiophenes with different substitution patterns of L- or D-tyrosine at distinct positions along the thiophene backbone. Spectroscopic, microscopic, and theoretical studies of L- or D-tyrosine substituted pentameric oligothiophene conjugates revealed the formation of optically active pi-stacked self-assembled aggregates under acid conditions. The distinct photophysical characteristics, as well as the supramolecular structures of the assemblies, were highly influenced by the positioning of the L- or D-tyrosine moieties along the thiophene backbone. Overall, the obtained results clearly demonstrate how fundamental changes in the position of the enantiomeric side-chain functionalities greatly affect the optical properties as well as the architecture of the self-assembled supramolecular structures.

  • Low-Dose Tamoxifen for Mammographic Density Reduction : A Randomized Controlled Trial
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Journal of Clinical Oncology. - 0732-183X. ; 39:17, s. 1899-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • PURPOSE: Tamoxifen prevents breast cancer in high-risk women and reduces mortality in the adjuvant setting. Mammographic density change is a proxy for tamoxifen therapy response. We tested whether lower doses of tamoxifen were noninferior to reduce mammographic density and associated with fewer symptoms.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Women, 40-74 years of age, participating in the Swedish mammography screening program were invited to the 6-month double-blind six-arm randomized placebo-controlled noninferiority dose-determination KARISMA phase II trial stratified by menopausal status (EudraCT 2016-000882-22). In all, 1,439 women were accrued with 1,230 participants accessible for intention-to-treat analysis. The primary outcome was proportion of women treated with placebo, 1, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg whose mammographic density decreased at least as much as the median reduction in the 20 mg arm. The noninferior margin was 17%. Secondary outcome was reduction of symptoms. Post hoc analyses were performed by menopausal status. Per-protocol population and full population were analyzed in sensitivity analysis.RESULTS: The 1,439 participants, 566 and 873 pre- and postmenopausal women, respectively, were recruited between October 1, 2016, and September 30, 2019. The participants had noninferior mammographic density reduction following 2.5, 5, and 10 mg tamoxifen compared with the median 10.1% decrease observed in the 20 mg group, a reduction confined to premenopausal women. Severe vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes, cold sweats, and night sweats) were reduced by approximately 50% in the 2.5, 5, and 10 mg groups compared with the 20 mg group.CONCLUSION: Premenopausal women showed noninferior magnitude of breast density decrease at 2.5 mg of tamoxifen, but fewer side effects compared with the standard dose of 20 mg. Future studies should test whether 2.5 mg of tamoxifen reduces the risk of primary breast cancer.
