Project description:Yeast cell cycle transcript dynamics in three S. cerevisiae strains grown at 30 degrees Celsius: cdc20 GALL-CDC20 (persistent mitotic CDK activity; CDK on), cdc8-ts (DNA replication checkpoint), GAL-cse4-353 (spindle assembly checkpoint), cdc8-ts cdc20 (DNA replication checkpoint, CDK on), and cdc8-ts cdc20, rad53-1 (DNA replication checkpoint without Rad53 activity, CDK on) in a BF264-15DU background. We compared transcript levels of genes previously shown to be periodically expressed in wild-type cells and in cells lacking all mitotic cyclins (clb1,2,3,4,5,6; CDK off).

Project description:Recent studies in comparative genomics demonstrate that inter-species comparisons represent a powerful tool for revealing both conserved and specialized biological processes across large evolutionary distances. All cells need to adjust to environmental fluctuations in metal levels since both metal excess and deficit are detrimental. Here, we explore the conservation of metal homoeostasis in two distantly related yeasts, examining genome-wide gene expression responses to changing copper and iron levels in budding and fission yeast using DNA microarrays

Project description:RNAi, a gene-silencing pathway triggered by double-stranded RNA, is conserved in diverse eukaryotic species but has been lost in the model budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We report that RNAi is present in other budding-yeast species, including Saccharomyces castellii and Candida albicans. These species use noncanonical Dicer proteins to generate siRNAs, which mostly correspond to transposable elements and YM-BM-4 subtelomeric repeats. In S. castellii, RNAi mutants are viable but have excess YM-BM-4 mRNA levels. In S. cerevisiae, introducing Dicer and Argonaute of S. castellii restores RNAi, and the reconstituted pathway silences endogenous retrotransposons. These results identify a novel class of Dicer proteins, bring the tool of RNAi to the study of budding yeasts, and bring the tools of budding yeast to the study of RNAi. Employ high-throughput sequencing of endogenous small RNAs from the budding yeasts Saccharomyces castellii, Kluyveromyces polysporus, Candida albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Saccharomyces bayanus.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to investigate the alteration of gene expression pattern induced by 15d-PGJ2 or 15d-PGJ2-PC in BMDMs. Method: BMDMs obtained from C57BL/6 mice were treated with 15d-PGJ2, 15d-PGJ2-PC or media control for 6h. Then RNA sequence was generated by using the Illumina system. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 13 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse genome and identified about 14,500 transcripts in the macrophage mRNAs. Among them, 719 and 286 genes were differentially expressed in 15d-PGJ2 and 15d-PGJ2-PC group respectively. Conclusions: Deoxy-A2/J2-IsoP-PC are a novel series of oxidation products we identified in atherosclerotic plaques. 15d-PGJ2-PC is a representative compound of these oxidation products we chemically synthesised. Using RNA-seq technology, we provided 15d-PGJ2-PC induced gene expression profile and could contribute to study the roles of these novel oxidation products in the atherosclerosis.

Project description:Yeast cell cycle transcription dynamics in two S. cerevisae strains: BF264-15DU (MATa ade1 his2 leu2-3, 112 trp1-1 ura3Dns, bar1) [referred to as wild type] and a mutant of the wild type strain, clb1,2,3,4,5,6 GAL1-CLB1, [referred to as cyclin mutant] that does not express S-phase and mitotic cyclins. Both strains were synchronized by elutriation and released into YEP 2% dextrose/1M sorbitol at 30c. 15 samples were taken at 16 min intervals covering ~2 cycles in wild-type and ~1.5 cycles for the mutants. A significant fraction of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome is transcribed periodically during the cell division cycle, suggesting that properly timed gene expression is important for regulating cell cycle events. Genomic analyses of transcription factor localization and expression dynamics suggest that a network of sequentially expressed transcription factors could control the temporal program of transcription during the cell cycle. However, directed studies interrogating small numbers of genes indicate that their periodic transcription is governed by the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). To determine the extent to which the global cell cycle transcription program is controlled by cyclin/CDK complexes, we compared genome-wide transcription dynamics in wild type budding yeast to mutants that do not express S-phase and mitotic cyclins. Keywords: cell cycle, strain comparison

Project description:Torulaspora microellipsoides is a unicellular budding yeast of the Saccharomycetaceae family and is primarily associated with viticulture, however it has not been studied with regards to growth morphology or phenotypic switching. We discovered that T. microellipsoides undergoes a low-frequency morphological switch from small budding haploid (white) yeast to larger, higher ploidy (opaque) yeast. Genome sequencing of both cell types did not reveal any conspicuous differences, but comparison of transcriptomes by mRNA-seq revealed 511 differentially regulated genes, with white cells having greater expression of genes involved in stress resistance and complex carbohydrate utilization, and opaque cells up-regulating genes involved in ribosome biogenesis. Growth experiments showed that white cells are in general physiologically more resistant to stationary phase conditions and oxidative stress than opaque cells, but the latter performed better under some conditions and are more tolerant to cold temperatures. Opaque cells are also phenotypically more unstable than white cells and give rise to derivatives with diverse phenotypes and different total DNA content. We propose that ability of T. microellipsoides to switch phenotype is an ecological adaptation to specific niches, as has been suggested for similar morphological switching phenomena in distantly related species such as C. albicans, and suggest switching of this nature may be a more a more broadly utilized biological strategy among yeasts than previously thought.
