Project description:Genomic imbalance caused by varying the dosage of individual chromosomes or chromosomal segments (aneuploidy) has more detrimental effects than altering the dosage of complete chromosome sets (ploidy). Previous analysis on RNA-sequencing data of varied dosage of various chromosomal regions in maize (Zea mays) revealed global modulation of gene expression both on the varied chromosome (cis) and the remainder of the genome (trans). Dysregulation of microRNA (miRNA) dosage has been reported to have profound deleterious effects in many species. miRNAs are preferentially retained as duplicates following whole-genome duplication in grass species and are postulated to be dosage-sensitive. However, little is known regarding the role of miRNAs under genomic imbalance. We examined the impact of increased and/or decreased dosage of 1 interstitial and 19 distal chromosomal regions in concert with a whole-genome ploidy series of haploid, diploid, triploid, and tetraploid via small RNA-sequencing of diploid and haploid maize mature leaf tissue to investigate the impact of aneuploidy and polyploidy on expression of miRNAs. In general, cis miRNAs in aneuploids present a predominant gene-dosage effect, whereas trans miRNAs trend toward the inverse level, although other types of responses including dosage compensation, increased effect, and decreased effect also occur. Significant correlations between expression levels of miRNAs and their targets were identified in aneuploids, indicating the regulatory role of miRNAs on gene expression triggered by genomic imbalance. The findings provide novel insights into understanding of gene balance from the aspect of the function of miRNAs.

Project description:Aneuploidy has profound effects on an organism, typically more so than polyploidy, and the basis of this contrast is not fully understood. A dosage series of maize chromosome arm 1L was used to compare relative global gene expression in different types and degrees of aneuploidy to gain insight into how the magnitude of genomic imbalance as well as hypoploidy affect global gene expression. While previously available methods required a selective examination of specific genes, RNA sequencing provides a whole-genome view of gene expression in aneuploids. Most studies of global aneuploid effects have concentrated on trisomics because other types of aneuploids are difficult to produce in most model genetic organisms. The genetic toolkit of maize allows the examination of multiple ploidies and 1-4 doses of chromosome arms. Thus, a detailed examination of expression changes both on the varied chromosome arm and elsewhere in the genome is possible, in both hypoploids and hyperploids, compared with euploid controls. Previous studies observed the inverse trans effect, in which genes not varied in DNA dosage are expressed in a negative relationship to the varied chromosomal region. This response was also the major type of change found globally in this study. It was also found that the effects of aneuploidy are progressive, with more severe aneuploids producing effects of greater magnitude.

Project description:The phenotypic consequences of the addition or subtraction of part of a chromosome is more severe than changing the dosage of the whole genome. By crossing diploid trisomies to a haploid inducer, we identified seventeen distal segmental haploid disomies that cover ~80% of the maize genome. Disomic haploids provide a level of genomic imbalance that is not ordinarily achievable in multicellular eukaryotes, allowing the impact to be stronger and more easily studied. Transcriptome size estimates revealed that a few disomies inversely modulate most of the transcriptome. Based on RNA sequencing, the expression levels of genes located on the varied chromosome arms (cis) in disomies ranged from being proportional to chromosomal dosage (dosage effect) to showing dosage compensation with no expression change with dosage. For genes not located on the varied chromosome arm (trans), an obvious trans-acting effect can be observed, with the majority showing a decreased modulation (inverse effect). The extent of dosage compensation of varied cis genes correlates with the extent of trans inverse effects across the 17 genomic regions studied. The results also have implications for the role of stoichiometry in gene expression, the control of quantitative traits, and the evolution of dosage-sensitive genes.

Project description:Recent advancements in genome sequencing have facilitated accessing the natural genetic diversity of species, unveiling hidden genetic traits, clarifying gene functions, and the degree to which laboratory studies can be generalized. One notable discovery is the frequent (~20%) aneuploidy - an imbalance in chromosome copy numbers - in natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) isolates, despite the significant fitness costs and transient nature reported for lab-engineered yeast aneuploids. To examine this discrepancy, we adapted a high-throughput proteomic platform to analyze the proteome of 800 diverse yeast isolates. Matching these proteomes to the natural isolates’ genomes, transcriptomes, as well as generating ubiquitinome and protein turnover data for selected isolates, we report that natural and lab-generated aneuploids differ specifically at the proteome. While lab-generated aneuploids attenuate specific proteins – mostly protein complex subunits – and do not alter the average gene dosage provided by chromosome duplications, in natural strains, 70% of proteins encoded on aneuploid chromosomes are attenuated, and protein levels are shifted towards the euploid state chromosome-wide. Our data links chromosome-wide dosage compensation in natural strains to i) genome-wide buffering of gene expression changes manifesting in trans on euploid chromosomes, ii) increased expression of structural components of the ubiquitin proteasome system, and iii) increased global rates of protein turnover. Our results encourage the exploitation of natural diversity of species to understand complex biological processes at the molecular level. This submission contains the raw files for the disomics lab engineered strains, the library used for the analysis and the corresponding DIA-NN report and associated files.

Project description:Accessing the natural genetic diversity of species unveils hidden genetic traits, clarifies gene functions, and allows assessment of the generalizability of laboratory findings. One notable discovery made in Saccharomyces cerevisiae natural isolates is frequent (~20%) aneuploidy – an imbalance in chromosome copy numbers – that appears to contradict the significant fitness costs and transient nature reported for lab-engineered aneuploids. Here, we generated a proteomic resource and merged it with genomic and transcriptomic data for 796 euploid and aneuploid natural isolates. We found that natural and lab-generated aneuploids differ specifically at the proteome. In lab-generated aneuploids, some proteins, especially protein complex subunits, show reduced expression, yet the overall protein levels correspond to the aneuploid gene dosage. By contrast, in natural isolates, more than 70% of proteins encoded on aneuploid chromosomes are dosage-compensated, with average protein levels being shifted towards the euploid state chromosome-wide. At the molecular level, we detect an induction of structural components of the proteasome, increased levels of ubiquitination, and reveal an interdependency of protein turnover rates and attenuation. Our study thus highlights the role of protein turnover in mediating aneuploidy tolerance, and demonstrates the utility of exploiting the natural diversity of species to reach generalizable molecular insights into complex biological processes. This resource provides the SILAC dataset from this work.

Project description:Dosage compensation was referred as an equalized X chromosome gene expression between males and females in Drosophila. And inverse dosage effects, produced by genomic imbalance, are believed to account for this modulated expression. Here we made a global expression comparison of trisomy 2L with on extra copy of chromosome 2 long arm to normal diploid with two copies of 2L with high throughput RNA-sequencing. We want to test how about the gene expression pattern changes in those comparisons, including the genes on varied chromosome 2 long arm, some other autosomal genes except chromosome 2L and X chromosome genes. Dosage compensation with an expression level similar to normal diploid and inverse dosage effects should be detected.

Project description:Segmental aneuploidy refers to the relative excess or deficiency of specific chromosome regions. This condition results in gene dosage imbalance and often causes severe phenotypic alterations in plants and animals. The mechanisms by which gene dosage imbalance effects gene expression and phenotype are not completely clear. The effects of aneuploidy on the transcriptome may depend on the types of cells analyzed and on the developmental stage. We performed global gene expression profiling to determine the effects of segmental aneuploidy on gene expression levels in two different maize tissues and a detailed analysis of expression of 30 genes affected by aneuploidy in multiple maize tissues. Multiple genes demonstrated qualitative changes in gene expression due to aneuploidy, when the gene became ectopically expressed or erroneously transcriptionally silenced in aneuploids relative to wild type plants. Our data strongly suggested that quantitative changes in gene expression at developmental transition points caused by variation in gene copy number progressed through tissue development and resulted in stable qualitative changes in gene expression patterns. Thus, aneuploidy in maize results in alterations of gene expression patterns that differ between tissues and developmental stages of maize seedlings. RNA was extracted from meristem tissues of 14 day-old maize seedlings segregating for segmental trisome of a short arm of chromosome 5. There are three biological replicates of pooled wild-type siblings and three biological replicates of pooled DpDf plants. The DpDf plants are segmental aneuploids that contain three copies of the short arm of chromosome 5. These plants are all in the B73 inbred genetic background.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms that lead to the cognitive defects characteristic of Down syndrome (DS), the most frequent cause of mental retardation, have remained elusive. Here we use a transgenic DS mouse model to show that DYRK1A gene dosage imbalance deregulates chromosomal clusters of genes located near neuron-restrictive silencer factor (REST/NRSF) binding sites. We found that DYRK1A binds the SWI/SNF-complex known to interact with REST/NRSF. Mutation of a REST/NRSF binding site in the promoter of the REST/NRSF target gene L1cam modifies the transcriptional effect of Dyrk1A-dosage imbalance on L1cam. DyrkA dosage imbalance perturbs Rest/Nrsf levels with decreased Rest/Nrsf expression in embryonic neurons and increased expression in adult neurons. We identified a coordinated deregulation of multiple genes that are responsible for the cellular phenotypic traits present in DS such as dendritic growth impairment and microcephaly during prenatal cortex development. Dyrk1a overexpression in primary mouse cortical neurons reduced the neuritic complexity. In the postnatal hippocampus, DYRK1A overexpression suppresses a form of synaptic plasticity that may be sufficient to cause DS cognitive defects. We propose that DYRK1A overexpression-related neuronal gene deregulation generates the brain phenotypic changes that characterize DS, with an accessory role for the gene dosage imbalance of other chromosome 21 genes.
