Project Description:
The aim of the proposal is to gain novel insight into molecular mechanisms of healthy ageing. Based on a proteomic analysis of ageing processes in a variety of ageing models including model organisms and model systems (e.g. human cell cultures), we will ad dress the question how (1) changes in protein concentration and protein modification, (2) protein-protein interactions and protein networks, (3) signaling mediated by extracellular proteins, and (4) protein turnover and degradation via the proteasomal syst em play a functional role in the ageing process. To this aim we have assembled a consortium of 15 highly experienced European research laboratories, one Chinese high technology Institute and 3 SME's with complementary expertise in the fields of cellular an d molecular biology of ageing, proteomics analysis and MS, structural biology and bioinformatics. By using a centralized cutting-edge proteomic technological platform available in two world-class centres that form part of this consortium and a new platform for cell culture at physiological low oxygen pressure, a high resolution proteomic analysis of unmatched precision will be applied to well-established in vitro models of replicative and stress-induced senescence and cells and tissues from people of differ ent age including centenarians. Novel technology will also allow identification of age-associated post-translational modifications and cleavage events that are known to influence greatly the activity of proteins. Trans-species comparisons will reveal cand idates for proteins that play a functional role in driving ageing processes, allowing for the first time a delineation of cause-effect relationships (instead of mere correlations) governing proteome changes that lead to age-associated phenotypes. The work described above will also lead to new protocols for early diagnosis and prevention of age-associated dysfunctions, based for example on strategies to reactivate proteasome #
