Project description:In general, yeast strains with myo1 knocked out cannot perform cytokinesis, but some evolve new ways of accomplishing the task. This is an examination of aneuploidies and CNVs in a selection of evolved mutants that can successfully perform cytokinesis. The purpose is to attempt a molecular characterization of the evolved responses.

Project description:Aneuploidy, the condition of having an abnormal number of chromosomes, is a hallmark of cancer cells. Recent work performed in yeast and mouse models suggests that aneuploidy interferes with cell proliferation and organism development. However, other recent experiments suggested that aneuploidy might play a positive role in tumor initiation and/or progression and in the emergence of chemotherapy as well as antibiotic resistances. Given its general deleterious effects on cellular fitness, how could aneuploidy be beneficial? In this set of experiments we plan to provide evidence that aneuploidy induces phenotypic variation through direct and indirect changes not only at the transcriptome but also at the proteome level.

Project description:This experiment was a 7-part time series (or, 2x7 factorial design) examining the effect of rapamycin on gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Treated and untreated cultures were compared at 0, 20, 40, 60, 120, 240, and 360 minutes. In the paper, expression ratios (mRNA) at each time point were compared to equivalent ratios (protein) from shotgun proteomics NSAF data. High-expressing mRNA ratios were also clustered and GO-characterized.

Project description:Fluconazole (FLC), a triazole antifungal drug, is widely used for the maintenance therapy of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis, the most common opportunistic infection in AIDS patients, but this usage predisposes to the appearance of FLC resistance, especially in patients with no or limited access to highly active antiretroviral therapy. We used microarray analysis to examine changes in the gene expression profile of C. neoformans reference strain H99 (serotype A) following exposure to FLC in order to study the adaptive cellular responses to drug stress. Simultaneous analysis of over 6,823 C. neoformans gene transcript levels revealed that 476 genes were responsive to FLC. Up-regulated expression was observed, as expected, for genes involved in the ergosterol biosynthesis, including ERG13, ERG1, ERG7, ERG25, ERG2, ERG3, ERG5, and that encoding the azole target, ERG11, but also for the gene SRE1, that encodes a well-known regulator of sterol homeostasis in C. neoformans. In addition, several genes such as those involved in a wide variety of important cellular processes (i.e., lipid and fatty acid metabolism, cell wall maintenance, stress, virulence, etc.), were found to be up-regulated in response to fluconazole treatment. Some of these genes may represent potential therapeutic targets to be exploited in anticryptococcal therapy. Conversely, expression of AFR1, the major transporter of azoles in C. neoformans, was shown to be not affected by exposure to FLC, thus suggesting a minor involvement in the C. neoformans short-term adaptation to the azole drug. We studied the transient response of C. neoformans to fluconazole by analyzing differences in gene expression prior to and after exposure of strain H99. Three biological replicates were performed for each condition (FLC-exposed and -not exposed (controls)). The cells were exposed to 10 µg of FLC/ml (1/2 x MIC) or distilled water (controls) for one doubling time (90 min).

Project description:Candida albicans, the most common cause of human fungal infections, undergoes a reversible morphological transition from yeast to pseudohyphal and hyphal filaments, which is required for virulence. For many years, the relationship between global gene expression patterns associated with determination of specific C. albicans morphologies has remained obscure. Using a strain that can be genetically manipulated to sequentially transition from yeast to pseudohyphae to hyphae in the absence of complex environmental cues and upstream signaling pathways, we demonstrate by whole-genome transcriptional profiling that genes associated with pseudohyphae represent a subset of those associated hyphae and are generally expressed at lower levels; interestingly, no genes appeared to be expressed exclusively in pseudohyphae. Our results also strongly suggest that in addition to dosage, extended duration of filament-specific gene expression is sufficient to drive the C. albicans yeast-pseudohyphal-hyphal transition. Finally, we describe the first transcriptional profile of the C. albicans reverse hyphal-pseudohyphal-yeast transition and demonstrate that this transition not only involves down-regulation of known hyphal-specific genes but also differential expression of additional genes which have not previously been associated with the forward transition, including many involved in protein synthesis. These findings provide new insight into genome-wide mechanisms important for determining fungal morphology and suggest that in addition to similarities, there are also fundamental differences in global gene expression as pathogenic filamentous fungi undergo forward and reverse morphological transitions. The Dosage Experiment (13 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were treated with various concentrations of Doxycycline (Dox): 20 (n=3), 0.4 (n=1), 0.35 (n=1), 0.3 (n=1), 0.25 (n=1), 0.2 (n=1), 0.15 (n=1), 0.1 (n=1), 0.05 (n=1), 0.02 (n=1) and 0 µg/mL (n=1). Each 20 ug/ml sample was used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of the experimental samples. The Forward Transition Experiment (23 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were grown in the presence (n=10) or absence (n=10) of 1.0 ug/ml Dox and subsequently harvested at time points between 1 and 10 hours. Each 1.0 ug/mL Dox treated sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of all 21 experimental samples. The Reverse Transition Experiment (26 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were grown in the presence (n=10) or absence (n=10) of 20.0 ug/ml Dox and subsequently harvested at time points between 1 and 10 hours. Each 20.0 ug/mL sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. Each untreated (no Dox) sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of all 22 experimental samples. The Dox Control Experiment consisted of 12 arrays. PCY87 cells were grown in the presence (n=5) or absence (n=5) of 20.0 ug/ml Dox overnight to create 5 pairs of biological replicates. Three pairs of biological replicates were labelled normally (one of which was repeated as a technical replicate using reverse fluors) and 2 pairs of biological replicates were labeled using reverse fluors. The Dosage Experiment reference was used as the reference sample.

Project description:We observed the expression profile of the total mRNA of wild-type Thermus thermophilus HB8 strain during infection of bacteriophage ÏYS40. Keywords: time course, bacteriophage, infection, wild type Three wild-type T. thermophilus HB8 strains were pre-cultured at 70°C for 16 h in 3 ml of TT medium containing 0.8% polypeptone, 0.4% yeast extract, 0.2% NaCl, 0.4 mM CaCl2, and 0.4 mM MgCl2, which was adjusted to pH 7.2 with NaOH. The cells (2 ml) were inoculated into 1 liter of the same medium and then cultivated at 70°C until A600 value being ~0.8 (1.7 à 108 cells/ml) that corresponds to logarithmic growth phase. Then the ΦYS40 phage was infected to the medium at multiplicity of infection (m.o.i.) being ~1, and continued cultivation. Cells were collected after 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 min infection, and then crude RNA was extracted. The expression of each mRNA at each time point was analyzed on a GeneChip as described under Sample Description Sheet of each sample.
