Project description:Dysfunction of the motor subunit of the TIM23 translocase, the PAM complex located on the matrix side of the mitochondrial inner membrane in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was shown to cause a decrease in mitochondrial protein import and precursor accumulation in the cytosol. We used an analogous model to study the non-mitochondrial response to defective mitochondrial import machinery in Caenorhabditis elegans in which we depleted DNJ-21 as the functional homolog of yeast Pam18. To gain a broader insight in potential changes in Caenorhabditis elegans proteome upon DNJ-21 depletion we performed a quantitative, label-free proteomics analysis. We compared protein levels upon knockdown of dnj-21 (dnj-21 RNAi) with control conditions (Empty vector RNAi). Synchronized N2 wild type worms were grown on NGM plates seeded with E. coli HT115(DE3) transformed with a construct targeting dnj-21 gene or with empty vector L4440 as a control.

Project description:Many species undergo sexual reproduction to distribute the parental genomes and increase the genomic diversity of the progeny. Among such species, sexual dimorphism is often displayed through morphology, size, behavior, and life-span, depending on the survival and reproduction strategies of the species. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has two sexes, hermaphrodite and male, and only the hermaphrodites, which produce both oocytes and sperm, are essential for the perpetuation of the species. In this study, we found that dietary restriction, which is the most reproducible way to retard aging in many species, extends the life-span of C. elegans hermaphrodites but not that of males. Our analysis revealed that fasting induces male-enriched genes in hermaphrodites and that the sex determination pathway affects life-span regulation, even after the completion of development, and is regulated by food availability. Furthermore, fasting activates the entire X-chromosome only in hermaphrodites. Our tiling array analysis identified a fasting-inducible, X-linked non-coding RNA for which expression positively correlated with the activation level of the X-chromosome and longevity. These links between the sex determination mechanism and dietary restriction at multiple levels may give priority to the survival of hermaphrodites during food shortages in C. elegans.

Project description:Recent work has shown that small non-coding RNAs, including miRNAs, serve an important role in controlling gene expression during development and disease. However, little detailed information exists concerning the relative expression patterns of small RNAs during development of C. elegans. Here we use recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technology to show that expression of non-coding small RNAs, including miRNAs, changes dynamically during development and in the different sexes of C. elegans; approximately 16% of known miRNAs changed over 10 fold in expression during C. elegans development and about 12% of miRNAs showed major changes in expression between males and hermaphrodites of C. elegans. These results should lead to a better understanding of the expression and function of small RNAs in C. elegans development. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Examination of small RNA expression in six different developmental stages of hermaphrodites (Embryo, mid-L1, mid-L2, mid-L3, mid-L4, young adult), and young adult males (dpy-28;him-8) and spermatogenesis-defective young adult hermaphrodites (spe-9). The number of sequence reads for miRNA was assessed from the raw sequence data from Solexa sequencing using perfect sequence matching to known miRNAs (miRBase Release 11.0).

Project description:This is a set of RNA-seq data to establish which genes are expressed in the germline mitotic zones of older C. elegans hermaphrodites. This dataset was used as part of larger study to investigate mutational accrual in the C. elegans germ line specifically, to search for a correlation between gene expression and mutation accrual.

Project description:Cellular RdRPs play a critical role in the development of many organisms. Using high-throughput small RNA and messenger RNA sequencing we found that the Caenorhabditis elegans RdRP, EGO-1, is required to produce small RNAs antisense to a number of germline-expressed genes through several developmental stages. We found that these genes fall into distinct classes including genes required for kinetochore and nuclear pore assembly, as well as the production of histone-modifying and centromeric proteins. We also found several RNAi-related genes to be targets of EGO-1. Finally, we show a strong correlation between the loss of small RNAs and the rise of mRNA levels in ego-1 mutant animals. mRNA sequencing from ego-1(om84) and control L3, L4, and adult C. elegans hermaphrodites

Project description:The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits rapid senescence that is promoted by the insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) pathway via regulated processes that are poorly understood. IIS also promotes production of yolk for egg provisioning, which in post-reproductive animals continues, supported by destructive repurposing of intestinal biomass that contributes to senescence. Post-reproductive mothers vent this yolk which can be consumed by larvae and promotes their growth. This implies that later yolk production is not futile; instead vented yolk functions similarly to milk. Moreover, yolk venting is promoted by IIS. That this process is promoted by IIS provides new insights into how and why IIS shortens lifespan in C. elegans. Fully-fed d4 hermaphrodites were allowed to vent for 30 min, and vented proteins analysed against excretory/secretory products collected for L3 larvae as a negative control.
