Figure Lengend Snippet: Wild‐type GlyRS tightly binds the SIRT2 to inhibit its activity, not GlyRS CMT2D . (a) Coimmunoprecipitation of endogenous sirt2 showing specifically interaction with endogenous GlyRS in NSC‐34 cells. (b) Representative immunoblotting of 3 independent experiments shows that SIRT2 interacts with wild‐type GlyRS, not GlyRS mutant in stably expressing FLAG‐tagged GlyRS NSC34 cells FLAG‐tagged GlyRS was stably expressed in NSC34 cells. Precipitated GlyRS‐FLAG (WT, G526R, E71G) was detected by anti‐FLAG antibody, and co‐IP endogenous SIRT2 was detected by anti‐SIRT2 as indicated. (c) Representative immunoblotting of 3 independent experiments shows that SIRT2 interacts with wild‐type GlyRS, not GlyRS mutants in NSC‐34 cells. The NSC‐34 cells were transfected with GlyRS‐FLAG (WT, G526R, E71G, P234KY, C157R, G240R, L129P). Coimmunoprecipitations were performed with anti‐FLAG M2 magnetic beads. The immunoblot analysis was performed with anti‐Sirt2 and anti‐FLAG. (d‐e) Effect of GlyRS(d) or GlyRS mutant (G526R, E71G) (e) on SIRT2 deacetylation activity. SIRT2 (1 µM) was incubated with purified GlyRS or GlyRS (G526R, E71G) (concentration measured as a monomer) at the indicated ratios. The deacetylase activities of recombinant human SIRT2 were measured by monitoring the fluorescence intensity (excitation at 360 nm and emission at 460 nm) using a substrate peptide with one end coupled to a fluorophore and the other end to a quencher. A reaction without NAD + was performed as a negative control. Data are presented as mean ± SD, n = 3 biological replicates per group, from three independent experiments

Figure Lengend Snippet: Wild‐type GlyRS binds the SIRT2 to maintain the acetylated a‐tubulin. (a–c) The recombinant SIRT2(1µmol) and recombinant GlyRSWT (a), GlyRSG526R (b), or GlyRSE71G (c) were incubated with NSC‐34 lysate at the indicated ratios(concentration measured as a monomer). The reaction products were detected by Western blotting for acetylated tubulin, a‐tubulin, and His‐tag. Data are presented as mean ± SD, n = 3 biological replicates per group, from three independent experiments. (d) Representative immunoblotting of 3 independent experiments shows that both knockdowns of GlyRS and overexpression of SIRT2 result in decreased tubulin acetylation. HEK293 cells were transfected with GlyRS siRNA or control siRNA 24 h later, and SIRT2‐Myc was overexpressed in cells transfected with control siRNA. After an additional 48 h, cells were harvested and acetylation of tubulin was detected by Western blot. (e) Western blot analysis detecting the level of α‐tubulin acetylation in NSC‐34 cells transfected with wild‐type GlyRS and GlyRS mutants

Figure Lengend Snippet: The catalytic domain of GlyRS tightly binds the SIRT2. (a, b) Mapping study to identify the SIRT2 binding sites on GlyRS. FLAG‐tagged full‐length GlyRS or its truncated fragments was co‐transfected with HA‐tagged SIRT2 into HEK 293 cells. GlyRS proteins were immunoprecipitated with anti‐FLAG antibody, and the GlyRS ‐bound SIRT2 proteins were detected by Western blot using anti‐HA antibody.

(a) Bar graph displaying average climbing time to reach the target in a negative geotaxis assay of female flies in motor neurons (OK371‐GAL4). WT (gray), SIRT2 RNAi in GlyRSG526R (green), and GlyRSG526R (pink). N > 100. Error bars represent SEM. **** p < 0.0001. (b) 100 µM AGK2 was fed from 12‐h flies to 3‐ to 18‐day‐old flies; then, motor performance was detected and the bar graph was displayed average climbing time. AGK2‐fed GlyRSG526R (blue), SIRT2 RNAi in GlyRSG526R (green), and GlyRSG526R (pink). 4% DMSO was fed in all lines. N > 100. Error bars represent SEM. **** p < 0.0001. (c) SIRT2 knockdown restores NMJ in GlyRSG526R mutants. NMJs of third instar larvae expressing GlyRS in motor neurons (OK371‐GAL4) were visualized by staining for the postsynaptic marker disks large 1 (dlg1). Results indicate the NMJ on muscle 4, which is missing in GlyRSG526R flies and is rescued in SIRT2 knockdown GlyRSG526R flies. Scale bar, 50 mm.

GlyRSG526R flies have a shorter median life span than GlyRSWT flies and Tubts control flies ( p < 0.0001, log‐rank test). N > 200 (g) SIRT2 knockdown or inhibitor extends the median life span of GlyRSG526R ( p < 0.0001, log‐rank test). N > 200
