Project description:While much is known about glucose metabolism in yeast, less is known about the receptors and signaling pathways that indicate glucose availability. We obtained metabolic profiles for wildtype and 16 mutants affecting the yeast glucose sensing pathway, comparing 0.05% glucose vs 10 min after glucose addition to 2%. First, we determined that the G protein-coupled receptor (Gpr1/Gpa2) directs early events in glucose utilization while the transceptors (Snf3/Rgt2) regulate subsequent processes and downstream products of glucose metabolism. Whereas the large G protein transmits the signal from its cognate receptor, Ras2 (but not Ras1) integrates responses from both receptor pathways. Second, we determined the relative contributions of the G protein α (Gpa2) and β (Asc1) subunits to glucose-initiated processes. We determined that Gpa2 is primarily involved in regulating carbohydrate metabolism while Asc1 is primarily involved in amino acid metabolism. Both proteins are involved in regulating purine metabolism. Collectively, our analysis reveals the molecular basis for glucose detection and the earliest events of glucose-dependent signal transduction in yeast.

Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae developed elegant mechanisms to monitor nutrient availability and trigger adaptative responses to nutrient deficiency. Nutrient sensing requires close coordination of cell surface sensors with intracellular mechanisms. This yeast senses the presence of glucose by two modified hexose transporters, Rgt2 and Snf3 (regulating expression of genes encoding hexose transporters) and the G-protein coupled receptor Gpr1 (modulating Protein Kinase A (PKA) activity).. It has been difficult to differentiate between cellular responses mediated by cell surface and intracellular sensors, respectively. Using a strain that is devoid of glucose uptake, we show that the mere presence of glucose does not elicit any glucose-dependent transcriptional responses. This indicates that signals generated by surface sensors are not sufficient to mediate glucose-dependent transcriptional responses. Instead, intracellular glucose or metabolites derived from it are required for transcriptional changes associated with glucose exposure. We used microarrays from biological triplicate samples to measure the global transcriptional response to sudden addition of glucose to yeast cells growing at steady state on ethanol. The experiment was conducted using a strain that is devoid of glucose uptake and compared with an isogenic strain.

The experiment was conducted using a strain that is devoid of glucose uptake and compared with an isogenic strain. The CEN.PK strain was used in this research. A strain with all known hexose transporters deleted (Null strain) was compared with an isogenic reference. The two strains were grown in a chemostat (D = 0.1 h-1) using ethanol as the carbon source. Transcriptional responses between the strains were measured in biological triplicates at steady state and then pulsed with glucose at time t = 0. Transcriptional response was measured again after t = 20 min to determine changes in gene expression changes only in response to the presence of glucose.

Project description:It has been strongly argued that plant cells should have a means of sensing sugars at the cell surface, so that extracellular and intracellular sugars can be sensed separately and their metabolism coordinated (Lalonde et al., Plant Cell, 11, 707-26, 2000). There is good evidence for an intracellular hexokinase-dependent pathway of hexose sensing in plants, but very little evidence for a hexokinase-independent signalling pathway, such as that provided by SNF3 or RGT2 in yeast. Many papers on sugar sensing in plants cite work from two laboratories as evidence for hexokinase-independent hexose signalling in plants. The first is that in which cell-wall invertase and sucrose synthase genes were induced by treatment of a Chenopodium suspension culture with 30 mM 6-Deoxyglucose (6DOG) for 24 h (Roitsch et al., Plant Physiol 108, 285-294, 1995; Godt et al., J. Plant Physiol 146, 231-238, 1995). The second is that in which a patatin transgene in Arabidopsis was shown to be weakly induced by growth over several days on a mixture of 30 mM glucose plus 30 mM 3-O-methylglucose (3OMG), but strongly induced by growth on 30 mM Glc plus 90 mM 3OMG (Martin et al., Plant J, 11, 53-62, 1997). We are not aware of any examples of Arabidopsis genes which respond to 6DOG or 3OMG yet this is an area of wide significance. Identification of such a gene would help to establish if a hexokinase-independent signalling system operates in plants, and would provide a basis for establishment of a genetic screen for mutants, using the gene promoter linked to a reporter such as luciferase. The aim of this proposal is to discover any genes which are either activated or repressed by glucose AND by 3OMG and/or 6DOG, but not by mannitol (an osmotic control). The use of both 3OMG and 6DOG will help to identify non-specific effects of either. All substrates will first be analysed by HPLC to confirm that they are pure. Arabidopsis Col-0 seedlings will be grown in vitro for 7 days in the absence of sugars, then treated with 30 mM glucose or glucose analogue for 8 h (these conditions are based on concentrations and time courses of Roitsch et al.). RNA will then be isolated from multiple independent plates to minimise biological variation.

Project description:In a previous study we applied a quantitative proximity-labeling technique called Biotin Identification (BioID, Roux et al., 2012) to analyze the microenvironment of the Gβ-like scaffold protein Asc1 (Opitz et al., 2017). The WD40-repeat protein Asc1 binds to the head region of the small 40S ribosomal (hr40S) subunit. In this study, we analyzed the hr40S from the perspective of Rps2, a ribosomal neighbor of Asc1. We intended to confirm proteins of the Asc1 proxiOME at the hr40S and to observe changes when Asc1 was absent. References: Roux K.J., Kim D.I., Raida M., Burke B. 2012.

Project description:Background: Brain glucose-sensing neurons detect glucose fluctuations and prevent severe hypoglycemia, but mechanisms mediating functions of these glucose-sensing neurons are unclear. Methods: We combined mouse genetics, electrophysiology, neural tracing, optogenetics and Patch-RNA-seq to demonstrate how glucose-sensing neurons in the ventrolateral VMH regulate glucose balance. Results: Here we report that estrogen receptor-α (ERα)-expressing neurons in the ventrolateral subdivision of the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (vlVMH) are glucose-sensing neurons to a 5-1-5mM glucose fluctuation, being glucose-inhibited neurons (GI-ERαvlVMH) or glucose-excited neurons (GE-ERαvlVMH). Hypoglycemia activates GI-ERαvlVMH neurons via the anoctamin 4 channel, and inhibits GE-ERαvlVMH neurons through opening the ATP-sensitive potassium channel. Further, we show that GI-ERαvlVMH neurons preferentially project to the medioposterior arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (mpARH) and GE-ERαvlVMH neurons preferentially project to the dorsal Raphe nuclei (DRN). Activation of ERαvlVMH-mpARH circuit and inhibition of ERαvlVMH-DRN circuit both increase blood glucose. Conclusions: Our results indicate that ERαvlVMH neurons detect glucose fluctuations and prevent severe hypoglycemia in mice.

Project description:Skeletal muscle is a major site of postprandial glucose disposal. Inadequate insulin action in this tissue contributes to hyperglycemia in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. While glucose is known to stimulate insulin secretion by pancreatic b cells, whether it directly engages nutrient-sensing pathways in skeletal muscle to regulate glucose metabolism remains largely unexplored. Here we identified the Baf60c-Deptor-AKT pathway as a target of muscle glucose sensing that augments insulin action in skeletal myocytes. Genetic activation of this pathway improves postprandial glucose disposal in mice, whereas the muscle-specific ablation impaired insulin action and led to glucose intolerance. Mechanistically, glucose triggers a rapid calcium response in myocytes that acts on the class IIa histone deacetylase HDAC5, leading to Baf60c induction and insulin-independent AKT activation. The pathway is engaged by the anti-diabetic drugs sulfonylureas, suggesting that its therapeutic activation may have beneficial effects on glycemic control in diabetes. We used microarrays to elucidate the role of of Baf60c in transcriptional regulation by glucose in skeletal myocytes.
