Project description:Adult male fish were exposed to the various temperature acclimation conditions as outlined in the published manuscript and RNA was extracted from fish at each time point as listed in the experiment set description. Abstract: Eurythermal ectotherms commonly thrive in environments that expose them to large variations in temperature on daily and seasonal bases. The roles played by alterations in gene expression in enabling eurytherms to adjust to these two temporally distinct patterns of thermal stress are poorly understood. We used cDNA microarray analysis to examine changes in gene expression in a eurythermal fish, Austrofundulus limnaeus, subjected to long-term acclimation to constant temperatures of 20, 26 and 37 degrees C and to environmentally realistic daily fluctuations in temperature between 20 degrees C and 37 degrees C. Our data reveal major differences between the transcriptional responses in the liver made during acclimation to constant temperatures and in response to daily temperature fluctuations. Control of cell growth and proliferation appears to be an important part of the response to change in temperature, based on large-scale changes in mRNA transcript levels for several key regulators of these pathways. However, cell growth and proliferation appear to be regulated by different genes in constant versus fluctuating temperature regimes. The gene expression response of molecular chaperones is also different between constant and fluctuating temperatures. Small heat shock proteins appear to play an important role in response to fluctuating temperatures whereas larger molecular mass chaperones such as Hsp70 and Hsp90 respond more strongly to chronic high temperatures. A number of transcripts that encode for enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of nitrogen-containing organic osmolytes have gene expression patterns that indicate a possible role for these 'chemical chaperones' during acclimation to chronic high temperatures and daily temperature cycling. Genes important for the maintenance of membrane integrity are highly responsive to temperature change. Changes in fatty acid saturation may be important in long-term acclimation and in response to fluctuating temperatures; however cholesterol metabolism may be most critical for short-term acclimation to fluctuating temperatures. The variable effect of temperature on the expression of genes with daily rhythms of expression indicates that there is a complex interaction between the temperature cycle and daily rhythmicity in gene expression. A number of new hypotheses concerning temperature acclimation in fish have been generated as a result of this study. The most notable of these hypotheses is the possibility that the high mobility group b1 (HMGB1) protein, which plays key roles in the assembly of transcription initiation and enhanceosome complexes, may act as a compensatory modulator of transcription in response to temperature, and thus as a global gene expression temperature sensor. This study illustrates the utility of cDNA microarray approaches in both hypothesis-driven and 'discovery-based' investigations of environmental effects on organisms.

Project description:Background: Ocean temperatures are projected to increase over the coming century, with dramatic consequences for the marine biosphere. Diatoms are important contributors to marine primary production and the ocean carbon cycle, yet the molecular mechanisms that regulate their acclimation and adaptation to temperature are poorly understood. Method: Here we use a transcriptomic approach to identify the molecular mechanisms associated with temperature acclimation and adaptation in closely related colder- and warmer-adapted diatom species. Results: We find contrasting patterns of differential expression at sub- and supra-optimal temperatures across the two species, which may be due to adaptive changes in baseline expression. Frontloaded and divested pathways indicate protein processing machinery, membrane structure, and the balance between temperature-independent photosynthesis and temperature-dependent metabolism are key elements of adaptation to temperature changes. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that transcriptional frontloading and divestment may provide a framework to interpret diatom acclimation and adaptation to temperature and success under future warming.

Project description:Cells in ectothermic organisms often maintain homeostatic function over a considerable range of ambient temperatures. However, as temperature has pronounced effects on all biological processes, but not necessarily in a uniform manner on each of the myriad of distinct processes, cellular acclimation to ambient temperature change is predicted to involve complex regulation. To assess the effects of temperature change within the readily tolerated temperature range on the transcriptome, we have performed expression profiling with S2R+ cells, which are derived from the ectothermic organism Drosophila melanogaster.

Project description:Overexpression of Atg1 using either weaker CGGAL4 or stronger HRGAL4 driver. Both drivers have same expression pattern and are specific for intestine, Malpighian tubules and fat body of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Weaker Atg1 overexpression results in longer lifespan whereas stronger Atg1 overexpression shortens lifespan compared to controls. Overexpressor lines were combined with tubGAL80ts, which is a temperature sensitive GAL4 repressor. This enabled induction of Atg1 overexpression in day-2 adult fly, thereby bypassing development and any potential developmental effects that Atg1 might have. Fly eggs of appropriate genotype were raised under standard density at 18C and then emerged flies were switched to 27C at day 2 of adulthood for Atg1 overexpression, and were kept at 27C onwards for longevity analyses. Dissected tissue was collected for the transcriptomic analysis at two weeks of age.

Project description:Cells in ectothermic organisms often maintain homeostatic function over a considerable range of ambient temperatures. However, as temperature has pronounced effects on all biological processes, but not necessarily in a uniform manner on each of the myriad of distinct processes, cellular acclimation to distinct temperatures is predicted to involve complex regulation. To assess the effects of a temperature downshift from 25 to 14°C, i.e. from the optimal temperature to the lower limit of the readily tolerated range, on the transcriptome in a time-resolved manner, we have performed expression profiling with S2R+ cells, which are derived from the ectothermic organism Drosophila melanogaster.

Project description:Cells in ectothermic organisms often maintain homeostatic function over a considerable range of ambient temperatures. However, as temperature has pronounced effects on all biological processes, but not necessarily in a uniform manner on each of the myriad of distinct processes, cellular acclimation to ambient temperature change is predicted to involve complex regulation, including the transcriptional level. To study effects of changes in ambient temperature on chromatin accessibility, we performed ATAC-Seq with S2R+ cells, a line derived from embryos of the ectothermic organism Drosophila melanogaster. Aliquots of S2R+ cells were exposed to different temperatures (14, 25 and 29°C) within the readily tolerated range before analysis with ATAC-Seq.

Project description:In this study we used the Affymetrix Barley 1 GeneChip to investigate transcriptome responses of barley cv. Morex to low temperature, including triplicated measurements of cold, freeze/thaw cycles and de-acclimation over 33 days. Experiment Overall Design: Plants were grown at 20ºC for seven days and subject to a symmetrical cycle of acclimation, cold, freeze-thaw, and deacclimation. Chilling began by decreasing the temperature overnight from 20ºC to 4ºC at a rate of 1.3ºCâ¢h-1 and maintaining temperatures of 4 ºC in the day and 2ºC at night for 5 days. Freeze-thaw cycling lasted 12 days with day temperatures of 4ºC and night temperatures gradually decreasing from -2ºC the first night to -4ºC for three nights and -10ºC for four nights, then recovering to -4ºC for three nights and -2ºC for one night. This treatment was designed to allow daily freeze-thaw cycling and protein synthesis. Chilling conditions (4ºC day, 2ºC night) were resumed for five days, followed by deacclimation with increasing temperature to 20ºC overnight and maintaining for three days. Sampling was done at four different times, each at the 11th hour of light to avoid circadian effects: 1) before chilling treatment, 2) five days after initiation of chilling treatment, 3) eight days into freeze-thaw treatment and 4) three days into de-acclimation.
