Global Changes in Chlamydomonas Gene Expression Regulated by Carbon Dioxide and CIA5/CCM1

ABSTRACT: We used RNA-Seq to query the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transcriptome for regulation by CO2 concentration and by the transcription regulator CIA5(CCM1). Both CO2 concentration and CIA5 are known to play roles in induction of an essential CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM), but the degree of interaction and the extent of global regulation beyond the CCM were not previously understood. We compared the transcriptome of a wild type strain vs. a cia5 strain under 3 CO2 supply conditions: high CO2 (H-CO2; 5%); low CO2 (L-CO2; 0.03 to 0.05%); and very-low CO2 (VL-CO2; <0.02%). Our goals were to: 1) reveal candidate genes that, through changes in their expression, distinguish multiple acclimation states induced by H-CO2, L-CO2, and VL-CO2; 2) reveal genes regulated directly or indirectly by CIA5; and 3) reveal genes responding to the interaction between CIA5 and changes in CO2 concentration. Our results revealed a small group of genes as encoding putative Ci transporters based on their expression patterns. The results also showed a massive and much broader impact on global gene regulation by CIA5/CCM1, which directly or indirectly affected 15% of the Chlamydomonas genome. The transcriptomes under L-CO2 and VL-CO2 conditions were not significantly different, suggesting that these two acclimation states must be controlled by mechanisms operating beyond transcript abundance. Both 137c wild type (cc125) and cia5 mutant were induced for 4 hours induction under H-CO2 (5%), L-CO2 (300~500 ppm), and VL-CO2 (100~200 ppm) conditions. 2 biological replicates were done for each strain -CO2 combination.

We used RNA sequencing to query the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transcriptome for regulation by CO(2) and by the transcription regulator CIA5 (CCM1). Both CO(2) and CIA5 are known to play roles in acclimation to low CO(2) and in induction of an essential CO(2)-concentrating mechanism (CCM), but less is known about their interaction and impact on the whole transcriptome. Our comparison of the transcriptome of a wild type versus a cia5 mutant strain under three different CO(2) conditions, high CO(2) ...[more]

Project description:Diatoms are responsible for ~40% of marine primary productivity1, fueling the oceanic carbon cycle and contributing to natural carbon sequestration in the deep ocean2. Diatoms rely on energetically expensive carbon concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to fix carbon efficiently at modern levels of CO23–5. How diatoms may respond over the short and long-term to rising atmospheric CO2 remains an open question. Here we use nitrate-limited chemostats to show that the model diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana rapidly responds to increasing CO2 by differentially expressing gene clusters that regulate transcription and chromosome folding and subsequently reduces transcription of photosynthesis and respiration gene clusters under steady-state elevated CO2. These results suggest that exposure to elevated CO2 first causes a shift in regulation and then a metabolic rearrangement. Genes in one CO2-responsive cluster included CCM and photorespiration genes that share a putative cyclic-AMP responsive cis-regulatory sequence, implying these genes are co-regulated in response to CO2 with cAMP as an intermediate messenger. We verified cAMP-induced down-regulation of CCM gene ?-CA3 in nutrient-replete diatom cultures by inhibiting the hydrolysis of cAMP. These results indicate an important role for cAMP in down-regulating CCM and photorespiration genes under elevated CO2 and provide insights into mechanisms of diatom acclimation in response to climate change. In steady-state experiments: axenic T. pseudonana cells in four biological replicates (duplicate chemostats x 2 experimental runs) were acclimated to nitrate-limitation at 70% (1.5 day-1) of max growth rate for >10 days (>15 generations) under continuous light of 80 µmol photons·m?2·s?1. Cell biomass was maintained at ~2 x 105 cells·mL?1 by 10 ?M nitrate and carbonate chemistry stabilized to 300, 475 or 800 ?atm CO2, verified by pH and DIC measurements. Transition samples and carbonate chemistry were collected daily from chemostat cultures as CO2 levels were increased from ~300-800 ?atm at a rate ? 0.2 ?atm·min?1 over four consecutive days (6 generations) after pre-acclimation to 300 ?atm CO2 and nitrate-limitation.
