Transcriptome Analysis of Avicel Utilization by Thermomyces lanuginosus

ABSTRACT: Thermomyces lanuginosus is a thermophilic fungus whose genome encodes many carbohydrate-active enzymes involved in Avicel degradation. This study examined and compared the transcriptomes of T. lanuginosus during cultivation on Avicesl or glucose. We identified approximately 4485 genes that showed expression differences when T. lanuginosus was cultured on Avicel compared to glucose. Functional annotation of up-regulated genes showed enrichment for proteins predicted to be involved in Avicel degradation, but also many genes encoding proteins of unknown function. Our study represents the first analysis of transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions. mRNA profiles of 2-day old Thermomyces lanuginosus were generated by deep sequencing,in duplicate, using Illumina GAIIx.

Evidence of a critical role for cellodextrin transporter 2 (CDT-2) in both cellulose and hemicellulose degradation and utilization in Neurospora crassa

Project description:CDT-1 and CDT-2 are two cellodextrin transporters discovered in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa. Previous studies focused on characterizing the role of these transporters in only a few conditions, including cellulose degradation, and the function of these two transporters is not yet completely understood. In this study, we show that deletion of cdt-2, but not cdt-1, results in growth defects not only on Avicel but also on xylan. cdt-2 can be highly induced by xylan, and this mutant has a xylodextrin consumption defect. Transcriptomic analysis of the cdt-2 deletion strain on Avicel and xylan showed that major cellulase and hemicellulase genes were significantly down-regulated in the cdt-2 deletion strain and artificial over expression of cdt-2 in N. crassa increased cellulase and hemicellulase production. Together, these data clearly show that CDT-2 plays a critical role in hemicellulose sensing and utilization. This is the first time a sugar transporter has been assigned a function in the hemicellulose degradation pathway. Furthermore, we found that the transcription factor XLR-1 is the major regulator of cdt-2, while cdt-1 is primarily regulated by CLR-1. These results deepen our understanding of the functions of both cellodextrin transporters, particularly for CDT-2. Our study also provides novel insight into the mechanisms for hemicellulose sensing and utilization in N. crassa, and may be applicable to other cellulolytic filamentous fungi. N. crassa was pregrown in Sucrose and transferred to Avicel (cellulose) or Xylan(hemicellulose) media. Up regulated and down regulated genes expressions were compared with wild type strain on two conditions (Avicel and xylan) respectively.

Ras-induced epigenetic inactivation of RRAD promotes glucose uptake in a human ovarian cancer model [DGE-Seq]

Project description:Ras-related associated with diabetes (RRAD) is a small Ras-related GTPase that is frequently inactivated by DNA methylation of the CpG island in its promoter region in cancer tissues. However, the role of the methylation-induced RRAD inactivation in tumorigenesis remains unclear. In this study, the Ras regulated-transcriptome and epigenome were profiled by comparing T29H (a RasV12-transformed human ovarian epithelial cell line) with T29 (an immortalized but non-transformed cell line) through Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS-seq) and Digital gene expression (DGE) . We found that RasV12-mediated oncogenic transformation was accompanied by RRAD promoter hypermethylation and a concomitant loss of RRAD expression. In addition, we found that the RRAD promoter was hypermethylated and its transcription was reduced in ovarian cancer versus normal ovarian tissues. Treatment with the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-aza-2?-deoxycytidine (5-aza-dC) resulted in demethylation in RRAD promoter and restored RRAD expression in T29H cells. By employing knockdown and overexpression techniques in T29 and T29H, respectively, we found that RRAD inhibited glucose uptake and lactate production by repressing the expression of glucose transporters. Finally, RRAD overexpression in T29H cells inhibited tumor formation in nude mice, suggesting RRAD is a tumor suppressor gene. Our results indicate that RasV12-mediated oncogenic transformation induces RRAD epigenetic inactivation, which in turn promotes glucose uptake and may contribute to ovarian cancer tumorigenesis DGE-seq data for two cell lines (T29 and T29H) by were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina GAIIx.

Transcriptomic response to substrate and temperature in two thermophilic fungi, Myceliophthora thermophila and Thielavia terrestris, and a related mesophile, Chaetomium globosum

Project description:The thermophilic filamentous fungi Myceliophthora thermophila (Sporotrichum thermophile) and Thielavia terrestris are proficient decomposers of cellulose, suggesting that they will be a rich source of thermostable industrial enzymes for lignocellulose degradation. To identify the genes and proteins involved in this process, we explored the transcriptomes of M. thermophila and T. terrestris growing at 45 ºC on either glucose, alfalfa, or barley straw by short-read sequencing of extracted mRNA. To better understand the adaptations that allow these fungi to grow at elevated temperatures, we compared their transcriptomes when growing at 34C to their transcritomes at 45C, and also to the transcriptome of the related fungus Chaetomium globosum, which does not grow at 45C. RNA was extracted from cultures in early growth stage growing with glucose, alfalfa, or barley straw as carbon source at 34C or 45C (M. thermophila and T. terrestris); duplicate cultures were sampled in some conditions.

Genome-wide transcriptional response of the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei to lignocellulose using RNA sequencing and comparison with Aspergillus niger

Project description:The induction of genes in response to exposure of T. reesei to wheat straw was explored using genome-wide RNA-seq and compared to published RNA-seq data and model of how A. niger senses and responds to the lignocellulose. After 24 h of exposure to straw, transcript levels of known and predicted lignocellulose-degrading enzymes increased to around 8% of total cellular mRNA in T. reesei, which was much less when compared to A. niger. The bulk of enzymes used to deconstruct wheat straw is similar in both fungi. Other, non-plant cell wall-degrading enzymes which may aid in lignocellulose degradation were also uncovered in T. reesei and similar to those described in A. niger. Antisense transcripts were also shown to be present in T. reesei and their expession can be regulated by the respective growth condition. Triplicate samples of T. reesei cultivated in each of the three following conditions were taken: 1) After 48 h growth in glucose-based minimal media; 2) After transfer of mycelia from glucose-based media into media containing wheat straw as a sole carbon source and 3) 5 h after addition of glucose to straw cultures.

Investigation of the microRNAs in safflower seed, leaf and petal by high-throughput sequencing

Project description:We report that there are at least 236 known miRNAs expressed in safflower, of which 100 miRNAs with relatively high expression level exhibited evolutionary conservation across multiple plants. Comparison of their expression patterns among different tissues shows that a total of 116, 133 and 128 miRNAs are significantly differentially expressed between safflower seed/leaf, seed/petal and leaf/petal. Meanwhile, interestingly, the majority of the most significantly differentially expressed miRNAs between tissues are tissue-specific miRNAs. In addition, 15 putative novel miRNAs have been identified in safflower. The small RNA transcriptomes obtained in this study provide a basis for further investigation of the physiological roles of identified miRNAs in safflower. Investigate the small RNA transcriptomes in 3 tissues
