Stepwise emergence of the neuronal gene expression program in early animal evolution

ABSTRACT: We performed single-cell transcriptome analysis (using 10x) of four placozoan species (Trichoplax adhaerens, Trichoplax sp. H2, Cladtertia collaboinventa, Hoilungia hongkongensis). Additionally we performed bulk ATAC-seq experiments and anti-H3K4me2/anti-H3K4me3 ChIP-seq experiments the same species.

Stepwise emergence of the neuronal gene expression program in early animal evolution

Project description:The assembly of the neuronal and other major cell type programs occurred early in animal evolution. We can reconstruct this process by studying non-bilaterians like placozoans. These small disc-shaped animals have only nine morphologically described cell types and no neurons, but show coordinated behaviors triggered by peptide-secreting cells. We investigated the possible neuronal affinities of these peptidergic cells using phylogenetics, chromatin profiling, and comparative single-cell genomics in four placozoans species. We found highly conserved cell type expression programs across placozoans, including populations of transdifferentiating and cycling cells suggestive of active cell type homeostasis. We also uncovered an unexpected diversity of fourteen peptidergic cell types that express neuronal-associated components like the presynaptic scaffold and that derive from progenitor cells with neurogenesis signatures. In contrast, earlier-branching animals like sponges and ctenophores lacked this conserved expression. Our findings indicate that key neuronal developmental and effector gene modules evolved before the advent of cnidarian/bilaterian neurons in the context of paracrine cell signalling.

Stepwise Neofunctionalization of c-Rel during Vertebrate Evolution (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Adaptive immunity and the five vertebrate NF-kB/Rel family members first appeared in cartilaginous fish, suggesting that NF-kB family expansion allowed the acquisition of new functions to regulate adaptive immune responses. Transcriptome profiling revealed that, even in macrophages, the NF-kB family member, c-Rel, most potently regulates a cytokine gene linked to adaptive immunity, Il12b, with limiting roles at key regulators of innate immunity. Neofunctionalization of c-Rel to regulate Il12b depends on its unique DNA-binding properties, which we examined using structural, biochemical, functional, and genomic approaches. Among our findings was functional c-Rel homodimer binding to motifs with little resemblance to canonical NF-kB motifs. To determine whether c-Rel’s unique binding properties drove c-Rel-RelA divergence, we compared binding properties in various vertebrate species. c-Rel-RelA binding properties diverged in mammals and amphibians but were comparable in earlier vertebrates, suggesting that divergent DNA binding emerged relatively late during vertebrate evolution to support increasing complexity of adaptive immune regulation.

Hydrogen utilization by Methylocystis sp. strain SC2 expands the known metabolic versatility of type IIa methanotrophs

Project description:The objective of this study was to assess whether Methylocystis sp. strain SC2, as a representative for Methylocystis spp., can utilize hydrogen to optimize the biomass yield by mixed utilization of CH4 and H2, rather than CH4 as the sole source of energy. Thus, we aimed to show that, in the presence of H2, CH4 will primarily be used for synthesis of cell carbon and increased biomass/protein yield. In particular, we intended to explore those CH4/O2 ratios, which maximize the effect of hydrogen addition on the biomass yield and proteome reconstruction of strain SC2. To achieve our goals, we combined hydrogen-based growth experiments with our recently optimized proteomics workflow.

Early metazoan cell type diversity and the evolution of multicellular gene regulation

Project description:We performed single-cell transcriptome analysis (using MARS-seq) in the sponge Amphimedon queenslandica (adult and larval stages), in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi (adult stage), and in the placozoan Trichoplax adhaerens (adult stage). Additionally we performed bulk iChIP experiments (2 replicates of each experiment) using antibodies against H3K4me3 and H3K4me2 in adult Mnemiopsis leidyi and adult Trichoplax adhaerens.

The origin and evolution of the interactions between sex peptide and sex peptide receptor

Project description:Post-mating responses play a vital role in successful reproduction across diverse species. In fruit flies, sex peptide (SP) binds to sex peptide receptor (SPR), triggering a series of post-mating responses. However, the origin of SPR predates the emergence of SP. The evolutionary origins of the interactions between SP and SPR and the mechanisms by which they interact remain enigmatic. In this study, we used ancestral sequence reconstruction, AlphaFold2 predictions, and molecular dynamics simulations to study SP-SPR interactions and their origination. Using AlphaFold2 and long-time molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we demonstrate the structure and dynamics of SP-SPR interactions. We show that SP potentially binds to the ancestral states of Diptera SPR. Notably, we found that only a few amino acid changes in SPR are sufficient for the formation of SP-SPR interactions. Ancestral sequence reconstruction and MD simulations further reveal that SP-SPR interacts through residues that are mostly located at the SPR interface of an ancestral ligand, myoinhibitory peptides (MIPs). We propose a potential mechanism whereby SP-SPR interactions arise from pre-existing MIP-SPR interface as well as early chance events that created novel SP-specific SP-SPR interactions. Our findings provide new insights into the origin and evolution of SP-SPR interactions and their relationship with MIP-SPR interactions.
