Project description:Engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) are increasingly used to generate innovative industrial and medical goods. Because of their broad applications, they form a new class of pollutants with potential eco-toxicological impacts on marine ecosystems. Attempting to evaluate the risk, we investigated the toxicity of Iron and Zinc oxide ENPs on three picophytoplanktonic strains of algae: Micromonas commoda, Ostreococcus tauri and Nannochloris sp. Microalgae responses are highly species-dependent, Micromonas commoda growth being severely impaired by both ENP types whereas Ostreococcus tauri or Nannochloris sp. are resistant. ZnO ENPs have higher toxicity than iron ENPs though growth of M. commoda was severely inhibited by Fe2O3 ENPs. Transcriptome-wide analysis after exposure of M. commoda to ENPs shows that the altered biological processes mainly take place in the cytoplasm and that the response to ENPs is largely metabolic in nature: stimulation of carbohydrate metabolism, light harvesting processes and alteration of the nitrogen pathway. In addition, a severe disruption of ribosome structure and translation processes is observed.

Project description:Genome wide rhythmic transcription under light/dark cycles is associated with sequential transcription of specific biological processes genes in Ostreococcus tauri. Transcriptional profiling of Ostreococcus tauri under light/dark cycles. In order to identify genes with a diurnal rhythm, cells entrained under 12:12 light/dark cycles were sampled every 3 hours for 27 hours with two overlapping time points at Time 9 (Light ON at Time 9; Light OFF at Time 21) in 3 independent experiments.

Project description:Plants respond to seasonal cues such as the photoperiod, to adapt to current conditions and to prepare for environmental changes in the season to come. To assess photoperiodic responses at the protein level, we quantified the proteome of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana by mass spectrometry across four photoperiods. This revealed coordinated changes of abundance in the proteins of photosynthesis, primary metabolism and secondary metabolic processes such as pigment biosynthesis, consistent with higher metabolic activity in long photoperiods. Higher translation rates during the day than during the night likely contribute to these changes, but rhythmic RNA profiles will alter their effects. Photoperiodic control of protein levels might be greatest if high translation rates only coincide with high transcript levels in some photoperiods. We term this mechanism ‘translational coincidence’, mathematically model its components, and demonstrate its effect on the Arabidopsis proteome. Datasets from a green alga and a cyanobacterium suggest that this mechanism is general, contributing to the seasonal control of the proteome in many phototrophic organisms, and favouring RNA rhythms even for stable proteins.

Project description:Accurate timing and anticipation of seasonal changes are required to initiate physiological adaptations over the course of the year such as hibernation, changes in metabolism, fattening and reproductive activity. To achieve this, organisms have evolved complex seasonal timekeeping systems that rely on day length sensing (photoperiodism). The aim of this project is to investigate the role of the circadian clock in photoperiodism within the crucial photoperiod sensing tissue the pars tuberalis.

Project description:Photoperiod is a circannual signal measured by biological systems to align growth and reproduction with the seasons. To understand the effect of photoperiod of gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana in the absence of exogenous sugar under constant light intensity, we performed time course mRNA-seq analysis on 13-day old seedlings across three photoperiods with triplicates to identify photoperiod-regulated genes.

Project description:Annual cycles in daylength provide an initial predictive environmental cue that plants and animals use to time seasonal biology. Seasonal changes in photoperiodic information acts to entrain endogenous programs in physiology to optimize an animal’s fitness. Attempts to identify the neural and molecular substrates of photoperiodic time measurement in birds have, to date, focussed on blunt changes in light exposure during a restricted period of photoinducibility. The objectives of these studies were first to characterise a molecular seasonal clock in Japanese quail and second, to identify the key transcripts involved in endogenously generated interval timing that underlies photosensitivity in birds. We hypothesized that the mediobasal hypothalamus (MBH) provides the neuroendocrine control of photoperiod-induced changes in reproductive physiology, and that the pars distalis of the pituitary gland contains an endogenous internal timer for the short photoperiod dependent development of reproductive photosensitivity. Here we report distinct seasonal waveforms of transcript expression in the MBH, and pituitary gland and discovered the patterns were not synchronized across tissues. Follicle-stimulating hormone-β (FSHβ) expression increased during the simulated spring equinox, prior to photoinduced increases in prolactin, thyrotropin-stimulating hormone-β and testicular growth. Diurnal analyses of transcript expression showed sustained elevated levels of FSHβ under conditions of the spring equinox, compared to autumnal equinox, short (<12L) and long (>12L) photoperiods. FSHβ expression increased in quail held in non-stimulatory short photoperiod, indicative of the initiation of an endogenously programmed interval timer. These data identify that FSHβ establishes a state of photosensitivity for the external coincidence timing of seasonal physiology. The independent regulation of FSHβ expression provides an alternative pathway through which other supplementary environmental cues, such as temperature, can fine tune seasonal reproductive maturation and involution.
