Project description:Previous molecular and mechanistic studies have identified several principles of prokaryotic transcription, but less is known about the global transcriptional architecture of bacterial genomes. Here we perform a comprehensive study of a cyanobacterial transcriptome, that of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, generated by combining three high-resolution data sets: RNA sequencing, tiling expression microarrays, and RNA polymerase chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing. We report absolute transcript levels, operon identification, and high-resolution mapping of 5' and 3' ends of transcripts. We identify several interesting features at promoters, within transcripts and in terminators relating to transcription initiation, elongation, and termination. Furthermore, we identify many putative non-coding transcripts. We provide a global analysis of a cyanobacterial transcriptome. Our results uncover insights that reinforce and extend the current views of bacterial transcription.

Project description:In the unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, essentially all promoter activities are under the control of the circadian clock in continuous light (LL) conditions. Here, we employed high-density oligonucleotide arrays to investigate comprehensive profiles of genome-wide Synechococcus gene expression in the kaiCEE mutant strains in which the KaiC phosphorylation cycling is abolished under LL.. In the kaiCEE mutant strain more than 23% of transcripts significantly oscillated with a period of about 48 h. 409 cyclic genes were shared with the wild type strains. kaiCEE mutant strain was analyzed under continuous light (LL) using Affymetrix high-density oligonucleotide microarrays (GeneChip CustomExpress Arrays) representing predicted 2,515 protein-coding genes on the genome of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 6301, which can be used also to the almost homologous strain, S. elongatus PCC 7942: a single experiment in kaiCEE mutant under LL from hour 8 to 96 in LL timecourse data (8~96 hours under continuous light) from Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 (kaiCEE mutant) strains

Project description:In the unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, most of genes are downregulated in the dark, while 10% of genes are upregulated. Here, we employed high-density oligonucleotide arrays to explore comprehensive profiles of genome-wide Synechococcus gene expression in wild type and kaiABC-null strains under continuous dark (DD) conditions. We found that expression profile of a subset of genes on the genome in DD was dramatically affected by kaiABC-nullification, and the magnitude of dark-induction was dependent on time when cells were transferred from light to DD Keywords: timecourse data (0-12 h) under continuous darkness after dark:light cycles from Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 wild type and kaiABC-null strains Wild type (WT) and kaiABC-null (DkaiABC) S. elongatus PCC 7942 strains were analyzed under continuous dark (DD) conditions after two 12h:12h light:dark (LD) cycles using Affymetrix high-density oligonucleotide microarrays (GeneChip CustomExpress Arrays) representing predicted 2,515 protein-coding genes on the genome of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 6301, which can be used also to the almost homologous strain, S. elongatus PCC 7942: Two independent experiments in WT and Dkai strains under DD (hours 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12).

Project description:In the unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, most genes show rhythmic expression controlled by the Kai-based clock under continuous light conditions (LL). We found that rpoD6-null mutants impaired expression of clock-controlled genes peaking at hours 8-10 in LL, while sasA-null or rpaA-null mutants each arrested the expression profiles at subjective dawn. Time-course data (0-24 h) of wild type (WT), rpoD6-null, sasA-null and rpaA-null S. elongatus PCC 7942 strains analyzed under continuous light (LL) conditions after two 12h:12h light:dark (LD) cycles using Affymetrix high-density oligonucleotide microarrays (GeneChip CustomExpress Arrays) representing 2,515 predicted protein-coding genes on the genome of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 6301, which can be used also for the almost homologous strain, S. elongatus PCC 7942.

Project description:In the unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, essentially all promoter activities are under the control of the circadian clock in continuous light (LL) conditions. Here, we employed high-density oligonucleotide arrays to explore comprehensive profiles of genome-wide Synechococcus gene expression in wild type, kaiABC-null and kaiC-overexpressor strains under LL and continuous dark (DD) conditions. In the wild type strain more than 30% of transcripts significantly oscillated in a circadian fashion, peaking at subjective dawn and dusk. Such circadian control was nullified in kaiABC-null strains. Although KaiC has been proposed to globally repress gene expression, our analysis revealed that dawn expressing genes were upregulated by kaiC-overexpression, such that the clock was arrested at subjective dawn. Transfer of cells to continuous dark (DD) conditions from LL immediately suppressed expression of most of genes, while the clock keeps time even in the absence of transcriptional feedback. Thus, the Synechococcus genome seems primarily regulated by the light/dark cycles and dramatically modified by the protein-based circadian oscillator.

Project description:In the unicellular cyanobacteriuIn the cyanobacterium, Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, most genes show rhythmic expression controlled by the Kai-based clock under continuous light conditions (LL). Overexpression of clpX led to a decrease in kaiBC promoter activity, disruption of circadian rhythm, and eventually cell death. We found that overexpression of clpX upregulated mRNA levels of ribosomal protein subunits, after which expression of other genes containing the clock genes was decreased. Wild type (WT) and inducible clpX-overexpressor (ox-clpX) S. elongatus PCC 7942 strains were analyzed under continuous light (LL) using Affymetrix high-density oligonucleotide microarrays (GeneChip CustomExpress Arrays) representing predicted 2,515 protein-coding genes on the genome of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 6301, which can be used also to the almost homologous strain, S. elongatus PCC 7942: WT at hours 16 in LL (IPTG-free): WT under LL 20 in LL (addition of 100 µM IPTG for 4 hours): ox-clpX cells at hours 16 in LL (IPTG-free): ox-clpX cells at hours 20 in LL (addition of 100 µM IPTG for 4 hours)

Project description:In contrast to Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, which has been the model cyanobacterium for the study of the prokaryotic circadian clock for more than 20 years, only few data exist on the circadian behaviour of the widely used cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The standard kaiABC operon present in this organism was shown to encode a functional KaiC protein which interacts with KaiA, similar to the Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 clock. Inactivation of this operon in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 resulted in a mutant with a strong growth defect in light-dark cycles, which was even more pronounced when glucose was added to the growth medium. In addition, mutants showed a bleaching phenotype. No effects were detected in mutant cells grown in constant light. Microarray experiments performed with cells grown for one day in a light-dark cycle revealed many differentially regulated genes with known functions in the M-NM-^TkaiABC mutant in comparison to the wild type. Most interestingly, we identified genes like the gene encoding the cyanobacterial phytochrome Cph1 and the light repressed protein LrtA as well as several hypothetical open reading frames with a complete inverse behaviour in the light cycle. These transcripts showed a stronger accumulation in the light but a weaker accumulation in the dark in M-NM-^TkaiABC cells in comparison to the wild type. In addition, we found a considerable overlap with microarray data obtained for hik31 and sigE mutants. These genes are known to be important regulators of cell metabolism in the dark. Three timepoints with two samples (WT and Mutant). Two replicates for each timepoint/sample. RNA hybridization.
