Genetic Control of Cellular Quiescence in S. pombe

ABSTRACT: Transition from proliferation to quiescence brings about extensive changes in cellular behavior and structure. However, genes critical for establishing and/or for maintaining quiescence are largely unknown. The fission yeast S. pombe is found as an excellent model for studying this problem, because it becomes quiescent under nitrogen starvation. Here we characterize 610 temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants, and identify 33 genes required for entry into and the maintenance of quiescence. These genes cover a broad range of cellular functions in the cytoplasm, membrane and the nucleus, encoding proteins for stress-responsive and cell cycle kinase signaling pathway, actin-bound and osmo-controlling endosome formation, RNA transcription, splicing and ribosome biogenesis, chromatin silencing, biosynthesis of lipid and ATP, cell wall and membrane morphogenesis, protein trafficking and vesicle fusion. We specifically highlight Fcp1, CTD phosphatase of RNA polymerase II, which differentially affects transcription of genes involved in quiescence and proliferation. We propose that the transcriptional role of Fcp1 is central to differentiate quiescence from proliferation. Keywords: cell cycle control, protein trafficking, cortex actin, RNA polymerase II, protein phosphatase

A balance in the delivery of ER components and the vacuolar proton pump determines phagosome acidification

Project description:As part of a study comparing phagosome composition in wild-type Dictyostelium discoideum with mutants in two cytoskeletal/motor proteins, we compared global gene expression and proteomes between the strains to test whether differences in mRNA and protein abundance were correlated with changes in phagosomal composition. abp1 and myoK mutants in both the Ax2 and DH1 backgrounds were compared with their respective wild-type parents.Both analyses converged and confirmed the phagosome analysis (supplemental Tables). Protein differences were markedly fewer in the myoK-null mutant than in the abp1 null lysate. Proteins of known function, differential in the myoK-null lysate, were involved in remodeling of the plasma membrane and early membrane trafficking. Proteins differential in the abp1-null lysate spanned various functions at all levels of cell metabolism. Most of the proteins differential in 2D-DIGE displayed similar mutant-to-wt ratios at the mRNA level in microarrays. A prominent example of overlap is the 1.4 fold overexpression (p ??? 0.016) of Vps5, both in proteomics and microarray analyses of abp1-null cells. Like half of the proteins involved in membrane trafficking that are differential in microarray analyses of abp1-null cells, Vps5 is putatively involved in endosome-to-Golgi trafficking as a retromer sorting nexin. Therefore, one might speculate that, in addition to direct effects on phagocytic uptake, absence of Abp1 has an impact on endosome-to-Golgi trafficking.

ECM dimensionality tunes actin tension to regulate endoplasmic reticulum function and spheroid phenotype

Project description:Patient-derived organoids and cellular spheroids recapitulate tissue physiology with remarkable fidelity. We investigated how engagement with a reconstituted basement membrane (rBM) in three dimensions (3D) supports the polarized, stress resilient tissue phenotype of mammary epithelial spheroids. Cells interacting with rBM in 3D had reduced levels of total and actin-associated filamin and decreased cortical actin tension that increased plasma membrane protrusions to promote negative plasma membrane curvature and plasma membrane protein associations linked to protein secretion. By contrast, cells engaging rBM in 2D had high cortical actin tension that forced filamin unfolding and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) associations. Enhanced filamin-ER interactions increased levels of PKR-like ER kinase effectors and ER-plasma membrane contact sites that compromised calcium homeostasis and diminished cell viability. Consequently, cells with low cortical actin tension had reduced ER stress and survived better. Consistently, cortical actin tension in cellular spheroids regulated polarized BM membrane deposition and sensitivity to exogenous stress. The findings implicate cortical actin tension-mediated filamin unfolding in ER function, and underscore the importance of tissue mechanics in organoid homeostasis.

Quantitative proteome for C.elegans by 3plex mTRAQ

Project description:Vesicle-mediated transport is a fundamental part of the secretory and endocytic pathways. In addition to their role in membrane protein trafficking, Arf-like protein subfamily of small GTPases also plays an important role in development, maintenance of Golgi structure and function. Proper protein trafficking is critical for cellular integrity and studies demonstrate that aberrant protein sorting leads to various diseases in many organisms including humans. However, to date, there is no report showing the role of Golgi apparatus and Golgi proteins in organismal longevity. Organisms dynamically reprogram their transcriptome and proteome as a response to internal and external changes, which alter physiological processes including aging. Compared to many transcriptomic studies that identified aging-regulatory genes, proteomic studies that identified aging-regulatory proteins are relatively scarce. By using a quantitative proteomic approach, we identified MON-2, an Arf-Gef protein implicated in Golgi-to-endosome trafficking, as a longevity-promoting protein. We found that MON-2 is essential for the long lifespan of various longevity mutants. Our results demonstrate that Golgi-to-endosome trafficking is an integral part of lifespan regulation.

The Greatwall-Endosulfine switch accelerates autophagic flux during the cell divisions leading to G1 arrest and quiescence in fission yeast

Project description:In fission yeast cell cycle exit, autophagy, G1 arrest and entry into quiescence are coordinated by the activity of the protein phosphatase PP2A/B55 through the Greatwall-Endosulfine switch. In order to study the role of this pathway in the transcriptional changes that occur during entry into quiescence, RNA was extracted from wild-type cells and from four mutant strains at three time points.

Nuclear actin structure regulates chromatin accessibility [RNA-seq]

Project description:Polymerized b-actin may provide a structural basis for chromatin accessibility. Nuclear actin transport into the nucleus can determine mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiative outcomes through regulated control of gene expression. Using MSC, we show that inhibiting Arp2/3 directed secondary actin branching with CK666, which results in decreased nuclear actin structure, significantly alters chromatin access measured with ATAC-seq at 24 h. The ATAC-seq results due to CK666 are distinct from those caused by cytochalasin D (CytoD), which increases nuclear actin structure. Nuclear visualization shows Arp2/3 inhibition is associated with decreased pericentric H3K9me3 marks. CytoD, in contrast, induces relocation of H3K27me3 marks away from the inner membrane. Treatment induced alterations in the chromatin landscape at 24 hours prompts differential gene expression associated with decreased proliferation and increased differentiation. Further, knockdown of the non-enzymatic monomeric actin binding protein, Arp4, leads to extensive chromatin unpacking, but only a modest change in transcription, indicating an active role for actin-Arp4 in transcription. These data indicate that dynamic actin remodeling can regulate chromatin interactions.

A prophage encoded actin-like protein mediates viral DNA segregation/replication in bacteria [Set2]

Project description:Active segregation of DNA in bacteria is catalyzed by cytomotive structures. Mediators of subcellular plasmid positioning are Walker-type ATPases (ParA), actin-like proteins, or tubulin homologs. These motor proteins are coupled to the DNA via adaptor proteins that recognize specific DNA motifs. Here, we describe that a temperate phage, CGP3, integrated into the genome of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 encodes an actin-like protein, AlpC. Biochemical characterization confirms that AlpC is a bona fide actin-like protein and cell biological analysis shows that AlpC forms dynamic filamentous structures upon phage induction. The co-transcribed AlpA protein binds to a specific region of the phage DNA, possibly functioning as an adaptor protein that connects circular phage DNA to the tips of the AlpC filaments. The AlpC filaments transport phage DNA to the cell membrane of the host cell. Furthermore, both AlpA and AlpC are required for efficient phage replication. This is remarkably similar to actin-assisted membrane localization of eukaryotic viruses that use the actin cytoskeleton to concentrate virus particles at the egress sites.

Aneuploidy shortens replicative lifespan in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Aneuploidy and aging are correlated; however, a causal link between these two phenomena has remained elusive. Here we show that yeast disomic for a single native yeast chromosome generally have a decreased replicative lifespan. In addition, the extent of this lifespan deficit correlates with the size of the extra chromosome. We identified a mutation in BUL1 that rescues both the lifespan deficit and a protein trafficking defect in yeast disomic for chromosome 5. Bul1 is an E4 ubiquitin ligase adaptor involved in a protein quality-control pathway that targets membrane proteins for endocytosis and destruction in the lysosomal vacuole thereby maintaining protein homeostasis. Concurrent suppression of the aging and trafficking phenotypes suggests that disrupted membrane protein homeostasis in aneuploid yeast may contribute to their accelerated aging. The data reported here demonstrate that aneuploidy can impair protein homeostasis, shorten lifespan, and may contribute to age-associated phenotypes. These are all CGH arrays comparing DNA content between the indicated strain of interest and a wt control.
