Project description:Tseng2012 - Circadian clock of N.crassa
A comprehensive model of the circardian clock of fungal Neurospora crassa
, which encompasses existing knowledge of the biochemistry of Neurospora clock, is described by Tseng et al.
(2012). The model is validated against a wide range of experimental phenotypes and has been used to investigate possible molecular explanations of temperature compensation.
This model is described in the article:

Abstract:
Circadian clocks provide an internal measure of external time allowing organisms to anticipate and exploit predictable daily changes in the environment. Rhythms driven by circadian clocks have a temperature compensated periodicity of approximately 24 hours that persists in constant conditions and can be reset by environmental time cues. Computational modelling has aided our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of circadian clocks, nevertheless it remains a major challenge to integrate the large number of clock components and their interactions into a single, comprehensive model that is able to account for the full breadth of clock phenotypes. Here we present a comprehensive dynamic model of the Neurospora crassa circadian clock that incorporates its key components and their transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation. The model accounts for a wide range of clock characteristics including: a periodicity of 21.6 hours, persistent oscillation in constant conditions, arrhythmicity in constant light, resetting by brief light pulses, and entrainment to full photoperiods. Crucial components influencing the period and amplitude of oscillations were identified by control analysis. Furthermore, simulations enabled us to propose a mechanism for temperature compensation, which is achieved by simultaneously increasing the translation of frq RNA and decreasing the nuclear import of FRQ protein.

Project description:We report the genome-wide impact of rhythmic P-eIF2α levels in vivo by performing ribosome profiling and RNA-seq in Neurospora crassa samples grown over a circadian time course. We identified candidate genes which showed rhyhmic ribosome occupancy in WT cells but lost rhythms in mRNA levels and ribosome occupancy in the clock mutant Dfrq, eIF2α kinase knockout Dcpc-3, and constitutively active kinase mutant cpc-3c cells. Select mRNAs harbor a P-body localization motif identified by MEME and MEME Suite's GOMo function. P-body localization of the target mRNAs provides an attractive mechanism for explaining translational rhythms from otherwise arrhythmic mRNAs.

Project description:Many fungi form complex three-dimensional fruiting bodies, within which the meiotic machinery for sexual spore production has been considered to be largely conserved over evolutionary time. Indeed, much of what we know about meiosis in plant and animal taxa has been deeply informed by studies of meiosis in Saccharomyces and Neurospora. Nevertheless, the genetic basis of fruiting body development and its regulation in relation to meiosis in fungi is barely known, even within the best studied multicellular fungal model Neurospora crassa. We characterized morphological development and genome-wide transcriptomics in the closely related species Neurospora crassa, Neurospora tetrasperma, and Neurospora discreta, across eight stages of sexual development. Despite diverse life histories within the genus, all three species produce vase-shaped perithecia. Transcriptome sequencing provided gene expression levels of 2479 orthologous genes among all three species. Expression of key meiosis genes and sporulation genes, corresponded to developmental differences among these Neurospora species during sexual development. Screening N. crassa knockout crosses of genes selected for their expression differences across species, eight genes, whose functions were previously unknown, are found to be critical for the successful formation of perithecia. The absence of these genes in mutant crosses resulted in either no perithecium formation or in arrested development at an early stage. Our results provide insight into the genetic basis of Neurospora sexual reproduction, which is also of great importance with regard to other multicelluar ascomycetes, including fungal pathogens closely related to Neurospora in the Sordariomycetes, such as Fusarium spp, Magnaporthe oryzae, and Nectria haematococca mRNA were sampled and compared from eight time points across sexual reproduction in three Neurospora species

Project description:Cleavage factor I mammalian (CFIm) complex, composed of cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor CPSF6, regulates alternative polyadenylation (APA). CPSF6 has a RS-like domain which plays role in protein -protein interactions. This interaction might have role in alternative polyadenylation site selection. The phosphorylation of RS- like domain might play role in protein -protein interaction and thus might have a role in alternative polyadenylation site selection. So we did mass specteroanalysis to analyse phosphorylation sites of RS-like domain of CPSF6.

Project description:The only S-adenosymethionine (SAM) synthetase expressed in most human cells, MAT2A, is regulated by intron detention. Using a GFP fusion reporter, we conducted a CRISPR screen to identify regulators of this alternative splicing event. The screen identified METTL16, a known regulator of this process, and NUDT21. NUDT21 encodes the CFIm25 protein a member of the CFIm complex involved in alternative polyadenylation. Validation and follow-up studies support the idea that CFIm25 and the larger CFIm complex plays an unanticipated role in splicing of the MAT2A detained intron.
