Project description:To support our molecular hypothesis of the effect of rpoS and inrR genes over the activation of the ICEclc genome in Pseudomonas knackmussii B13, we have employed Agilent DNA custom microarray in the 8X15K format. ICEclc-specific gene expression in Pseudomonas knackmussii strain B13 was measured after 48 hours of stationary phase following a growth on 10mM 3-chlorobenzoate (3CBA) as sole carbon and energy source. Various genotypes were tested: wild type (strain nM-BM-078, in 5 replicates), inrR-/- (strain 2201, in triplicates), delta::rpoS (strain 2671, in triplicates).

Project description:This study examines genome-wide expression of the phenanthrene-degrading Sphingomonas sp. LH128 as a response to long-term starvation stress. For this purpose, the strain was subjected to complete nutrient starvation for 6 months after growth on a rich medium. Survival was monitored by plating, physiological response was examined by flow cytometry and FAME analysis, and this response was related to transcriptomic response as determined by whole-genome microarray analysis. The data showed that decreased gene functions involved in ribosomal proteins biosynthesis, decreased chromosomal replication, increased gene functions involved in stringent regulation of gene expression, increased gene functions involved in genetic exchange and recombination, increased efflux systems, increased degradation of rRNA, and increased M-NM-2-oxidation of fatty acids to access stored nutrients. Genes involved in PAH degradations appears to be with decreased expression. Transcriptomic response of phenanthrene degrading Sphingomonas sp. LH128 starved for 6 month in isotonic solution of 0.01 mM MgS04 was studied using genome-wide gene expression analysis. For this purpose, the strain was pregrown in minimal medium to an OD600 of 0.5, washed twice with 0.01 mM MgS04 and resuspended in the same solution to an OD of 0.5. RNA was extracted both from starved cells and from the initial culture (non-starved cells) and cDNA was synthesized and labeled with Cy3. Transcriptomic response of three replicates were analyzed and compared with the initial inoculum

Project description:Proper chromatin organization is essential for defining transcription units and maintaining genomic integrity in eukaryotes. Mutations affecting the chromatin structure can lead to increased cryptic transcription and genomic instability. In this study we found that deletion of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Chd1-type chromatin remodelers, hrp1 and hrp3, causes strong, genome-wide accumulation of antisense transcripts, while the amount of coding mRNA transcripts is mostly unaffected. Nucleosome mapping revealed a specific role for Chd1-remodelers in the positioning of nucleosomes in gene coding regions. While the arrangement of nucleosomes in promoter regions was similar to WT, nucleosome organization within coding regions was remarkably irregular in hrp1M-bM-^HM-^Fhrp3M-bM-^HM-^F strain. We extended our analysis to other mutations associated with enhanced cryptic transcription activity, such as set2M-bM-^HM-^F, alp13M-bM-^HM-^F, and FACT complex subunit pob3M-bM-^HM-^F. While nucleosomes were severely depleted in the pob3M-bM-^HM-^F strain, nucleosome positioning was less affected. In sharp contrast, nucleosome organization in the alp13M-bM-^HM-^F and set2M-bM-^HM-^F strains was indistinguishable from WT. These data indicate multiple mechanisms in the repression of cryptic promoter activity in eukaryotic cells.

Project description:The strain bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][SIR2 H] improved salt resistance of bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F. To gain further insight into the mechanism of BDF1 in suppressing bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F salt sensitivity, DNA microarray analysis was performed to determine the reason for the salt sensitivity of bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F cells and the process of how coexpression of SIR2 and BDF2 improves salt resistance. Transcriptomic analysis under salt treatment (0.6 mol.L-1 NaCl for 45 min) was performed using three different strains: bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][SIR2 H], bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][pYX242] and bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F[pRS316][pYX242]. The transcription of 3244 genes were significantly changed( > 2-fold) in bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][SIR2 H] compared with bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F[pRS316][pYX242] upon NaCl stress (0.6 mol.L-1 NaCl for 45 min). Only 281 genes were significantly changed ( > 2-fold) in bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][pYX242] compared with bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F[pRS316][pYX242] upon NaCl stress (0.6 molM-bM-^HM-^YL-1 NaCl for 45 min). BF2:bdf1M-bM-^HM-^F[pRS316][pYX242]. BF2B: bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][pYX242]. BF2S:bdf1M-bM-^HM-^Fbdf2M-bM-^HM-^F[BDF2 L][SIR2 H]. BF2B vs BF2 under salt treatment (0.6 mol.L-1 NaCl for 45 min); BF2S vs BF2 under salt treatment (0.6 mol.L-1 NaCl for 45 min).

Project description:The catalytic core of the RNA polymerase of most eubacteria is composed of two M-NM-1 subunits and M-NM-2, M-NM-2M-bM-^@M-^Y and M-OM-^I subunits. In Escherichia coli, the M-OM-^I subunit (encoded by the rpoZ gene) has been suggested to assist M-NM-2M-bM-^@M-^Y during RNA polymerase core assembly. The function of the M-OM-^I subunit is particularly interesting in cyanobacteria because the cyanobacterial M-NM-2M-bM-^@M-^Y is split to N-terminal M-NM-3 and C-terminal M-NM-2M-bM-^@M-^Y subunits. The M-bM-^HM-^FrpoZ strain of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 grew well in standard conditions although the mutant cells showed low light-saturated photosynthetic activity, low Rubisco content and accumulated high quantities of protective carotenoids and M-NM-1-tocopherol. The M-bM-^HM-^FrpoZ strain contained 15% less of the primary M-OM-^C factor, SigA, than the control strain, and recruitment of SigA to the RNA polymerase core was inefficient in M-bM-^HM-^FrpoZ. Thus, a cyanobacterial RNA polymerase holoenzyme lacking the M-OM-^I subunit contains less frequently the primary M-OM-^C factor. A DNA microarray analysis revealed that this leads to specific down-regulation of highly expressed genes, like genes encoding subunits for Rubisco, ATP synthase, NADH-dehydrogenase and carbon concentrating mechanisms. On the contrary, many genes showing only low or moderate expression in the control strain were up-regulated in M-bM-^HM-^FrpoZ. A conserved -10 region was detected in promoters showing up or down-regulation in M-bM-^HM-^FrpoZ, but -35 regions of down-regulated genes completely differed from -35 regions of up-regulated genes. Cells from cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 named as control strain (CS) and RNA polymerase omega subunit inactivation strain, M-NM-^TrpoZ, were harvested (A730=1, 40 mL) directly from standard growth conditions (continuous illumination at the PPFD of 40 M-BM-5mol m-2s-1, 32M-BM-0C, ambient CO2). From three to four independent experiments were performed at each conditions.

Project description:Analyzing culture supernatants of yeast and hyphal cells of Candida albicans by mass spectrometry, we found two close homologues of pathogenesis-related (PR-) 1 proteins, Rbe1p and Rbt4p, in the secretome of this human pathogen. By sequence homology, we assigned three yet not characterized open reading frames, ORF19.6200, ORF19.2787 and ORF19.2336, in addition to Rbe1p and Rbt4p to a novel family of proteins. Correspondent with our secretome analysis RBE1 was expressed in blastospores and opaque cells, whereas transcription was down-regulated in hyphae. On the contrary, RBT4 was up-regulated in hyphae and down-regulated in opaque cells. Remarkably, transcription of RBT4 and RBE1 was each up-regulated in blastospores of M-bM-^HM-^Frbe1 or hyphae of M-bM-^HM-^Frbt4 deletion strains, respectively, indicating a compensatory function of both proteins. In a M-bM-^HM-^Frbe1/M-bM-^HM-^Frbt4 double deletion strain, genome-wide transcriptional analysis showed differential transcription of a limited set of genes that are also implicated in virulence and oxidative stress response. In this context, deletion of RBE1 or RBT4 in a clinical C. albicans isolate resulted in a moderate but significant attenuation in virulence in a mouse model for disseminated candidiasis. However, a synergistic effect was observed in the M-bM-^HM-^Frbe1/M-bM-^HM-^Frbt4 double deletion strain, where virulence was strongly affected. Furthermore, the double deletion strain showed increased sensitivity to attack by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils). Therfore, our data suggest that the crucial contribution of both C. albicans pathogenesis-related proteins for in vivo virulence results at least partially from reduced survival in phagocytes. Experiments were performed under blastospore (YPD) as well as hyphae (alpha-MEM)-inducing conditions. In total, three biological replicates were performed for each condition. All experiments were performed as dye swaps. Thus, in total six arrays have been hybridzed for each comparison (alpha-MEM and YPD, respectively). Hybridization experiments included a reference strain (C. albicans SC5314) and a double deletion strain (C. albicans MRC27). The array included one technical replicate of each probe.

Project description:The yeast M-NM-6-crystallin Zta1p interacts specifically with RNA sequences rich in adenine and uracil (AU-rich element). We have looked for possible targets of Zta1p through a comparative transcriptional analysis of the yeast defective in ZTA1 (M-NM-^Tzta1) versus the wild-type by microarray. This revealed that a group of genes implicated on amino acid biosynthesis are affected by the lack of ZTA1. The effect on one of the targets ARG4 was studied in more detail, revealing a clear positive correlation between ZTA1 and ARG4 expression at the mRNA level. We demonstrate that Zta1p is able to bind specifically to the 3M-bM-^@M-^YUTR AU-rich elements of ARG4 mRNA in vitro, suggesting that the mechanism by which ZTA1 modulates the expression of ARG4 is probably mediated by this mRNA binding ability. Moreover, the expression of ZTA1 is also under the control of the TOR pathway, and under Gcn4p, which regulates genes implicated in the response to nutrient availability and the general amino acid control (GAAC). In summary, our results shed light on the functional role of the M-NM-6-crystallin family as stress response proteins, with a conserved functional role, from yeast to humans, in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes that need to be rapidly activated for cell defense. Triplicate biological replicate experiments were performed, where the two strains, M-bM-^HM-^Fzta1 and wild-type, were grown in the presence or absence of hydrogen peroxide. The experimental design was defined to directly compare the M-bM-^HM-^Fzta1 versus the wild-type strain in either of the two hydrogen peroxide treatment conditions (i.e. treated M-bM-^HM-^Fzta1 versus treated wt, or untreated M-bM-^HM-^Fzta1 versus untreated wt). A duplicate hybridization on a separate array with dye swapping was performed in each case to correct for dye bias effects. Thus, a total of 12 array data sets were produced as a result of processing three experimental pairs of samples, for each of two treatment conditions, with dye swap duplicates.
