Gene Expression Changes Associated With the Developmental Plasticity of Sea Urchin Larvae in Response to Food Availability

ABSTRACT: Planktotrophic sea urchin larvae are developmentally plastic: in response to food scarcity, development of the juvenile rudiment is suspended and larvae instead develop elongated arms, thus increasing feeding capacity and extending larval life. Here, data are presented on the effect of different feeding regimes on gene expression in larvae of the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis. These data indicate that during periods of starvation, larvae down-regulate genes involved in growth and metabolic activity while up-regulating genes involved in lipid transport, environmental sensing, and defense. Additionally, we show that starvation increases FoxO activity and that in well-fed larvae rapamycin treatment impedes rudiment growth, indicating that the latter requires TOR activity. These results suggest that the developmental plasticity of echinoplutei is regulated by genes known to control aging and longevity in other animals.

Global patterns of enhancer activity during sea urchin embryogenesis assessed by eRNA profiling

Project description:We used CAGE-seq (Capped Analysis of Gene Expression with Sequencing) to profile eRNA expression and enhancer activity during embryogenesis of the sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. We identified >18,000 enhancers that were active during late oogenesis and early development and documented a burst of enhancer activation during cleavage and early blastula stages. Most enhancers were located near gene bodies and eRNA expression levels were highest for elements near core promoters. Transcriptional signals from enhancers generally paralleled the expression levels of likely target genes. Furthermore, enhancers near lineage-specific genes contained signatures of inputs from developmental gene regulatory networks deployed in those lineages. A large fraction (60%) of sea urchin enhancers previously shown to be active in transgenic reporter assays were associated with eRNA expression. Moreover, a large fraction (50%) of a representative subset of enhancers identified by eRNA profiling drove tissue-specific gene expression in isolation when tested by reporter assays. Our findings provide an atlas of developmental enhancers in a model sea urchin and support the utility of eRNA profiling as a tool for enhancer discovery and regulatory biology. The data generated in this study are publicly available at Echinobase (www.echinobase.org).

Synergistic effects of temperature and pCO2 on growth, development and gene expression of Strongylocentrotus purpuratus larvae

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) larvae cultured under four different seawater conditions: (i)13°C/400 µatm pCO2, (ii)13°C/1100 µatm pCO2, (iii)18°C/400 µatm pCO2 (iv)18°C/1100 µatm pCO2. The goal was to determine the effects of temperature and CO2, both important climate change variables, on gene expression

Proteomic analysis of sea urchin egg provisioning and development

Project description:Here we present LC-MS/MS proteomic datasets of Heliocidaris erythrogramma, Heliocidaris tuberculata, and Lytechinus variegatus eggs and larvae. We find dramatic proteomic differences likely associated with life history evolution and between developmental stages. This study provides a complimentary dataset to previous transcriptomic analyses of the same three sea urchin species.

The sea urchin larval response to immune challenge with Vibrio diazotrophicus

Project description:Seawater exposure to the gram negative marine bacterium Vibrio diazotrophicus induces a robust cellular response in sea urchin larvae that includes the migration of pigment cells to the gut epithelium, changes in cell behavior and altered gut morphology (Ho et al., 2016; PMID 27192936). To investigate the transcriptional underpinnings of this response, whole transcriptome sequencing was performed on mRNA isolated from larval samples collected at 0, 6, 12 and 24 hr of exposure to V. diazotrophicus. The morphological simplicity of the sea urchin larva provides a systems-level model for identifying biologically relevant transcriptional state changes in response to dysbiosis in the gut lumen.

Select microRNAs are essential for early development in the sea urchin.

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that mediate post-transcriptional gene regulation and have emerged as essential regulators of many developmental events. The transcriptional network during early embryogenesis of the purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, is well described and would serve as an excellent model to test functional contributions of miRNAs in embryogenesis. We examined the loss of function phenotypes of the major components of the miRNA biogenesis pathway. Inhibition of de novo synthesis of Drosha and Dicer in the embryo led to consistent developmental defects, a failure to gastrulate, and embryonic lethality, including changes in the steady state levels of transcription factors and signaling molecules involved in germ layer specification. We annotated and profiled small RNA expression from the ovary and several early embryonic stages by deep sequencing followed by computational analysis. All miRNAs have dynamic accumulation profiles through early development as do a large population of putative piRNAs (piwi-interacting RNAs). Defects in morphogenesis caused by loss of Drosha can be rescued with four miRNAs which permits a strong miRNA functional assay. Taken together our results indicate that post-transcriptional gene regulation directed by miRNAs is functionally important for early embryogenesis and is an integral part of the early embryonic gene regulatory network in S. purpuratus.
