Optogenetic Control of the Integrated Stress Response Reveals Proportional Encoding and the Stress Memory Landscape
bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)(2022)
摘要
The integrated stress response (ISR) is a conserved signaling network that detects aberrations and computes cellular responses. Dissecting these computations has been difficult because physical and chemical in-ducers of stress activate multiple parallel pathways. To overcome this challenge, we engineered a photo-switchable control over the ISR sensor kinase PKR (opto-PKR), enabling virtual, on-target activation. Using light to control opto-PKR dynamics, we traced information flow through the transcriptome and for key down-stream ISR effectors. Our analyses revealed a biphasic, proportional transcriptional response with two dy-namic modes, transient and gradual, that correspond to adaptive and terminal outcomes. We then con-structed an ordinary differential equation (ODE) model of the ISR, which demonstrated the dependence of future stress responses on past stress. Finally, we tested our model using high-throughput light-delivery to map the stress memory landscape. Our results demonstrate that cells encode information in stress levels, durations, and the timing between encounters. A record of this paper's transparent peer review process is included in the supplemental information.
