Interplay between septins and ubiquitin-mediated xenophagy during Shigella entrapment.
Autophagy Rep 2023
Septins are cytoskeletal proteins implicated in numerous cellular processes including cytokinesis and morphogenesis. In the case of infection by Shigella flexneri , septins assemble into cage-like structures that entrap cytosolic bacteria targeted by autophagy. The interplay between septin cage entrapment and bacterial autophagy is poorly understood. We used a correlative light and cryo-soft X-ray tomography (cryo-SXT) pipeline to study septin cage entrapment of Shigella in its near-native state. Septin cages could be identified as X-ray dense structures, indicating they contain host cell proteins and lipids consistent with their autophagy links. Airyscan confocal microscopy of Shigella -septin cages showed that septins and lysine 63 (K63)-linked ubiquitin chains are present in separate bacterial microdomains, suggesting they are recruited separately. Finally, Cryo-SXT and live-cell imaging revealed an interaction between septins and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B (LC3B)-positive membranes during autophagy of Shigella . Collectively our data present a new model for how septin-caged Shigella are targeted to autophagy.
