The Photorespiratory BOU Gene Mutation Alters Sulfur Assimilation and Its Crosstalk With Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana

ABSTRACT: This study was aimed at elucidating the significance of photorespiratory serine (Ser) production for cysteine (Cys) biosynthesis. For this purpose, sulfur (S) metabolism and its crosstalk with nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) metabolism were analyzed in wildtype Arabidopsis and its photorespiratory bou-2 mutant with impaired glycine decarboxylase (GDC) activity. Foliar glycine and Ser contents were enhanced in the mutant at day and night. The high Ser levels in the mutant cannot be explained by transcript abundances of genes of the photorespiratory pathway or two alternative pathways of Ser biosynthesis. Despite enhanced foliar Ser, reduced GDC activity mediated a decline in sulfur flux into major sulfur pools in the mutant, as a result of deregulation of genes of sulfur reduction and assimilation. Still, foliar Cys and glutathione contents in the mutant were enhanced. The use of Cys for methionine and glucosinolates synthesis was reduced in the mutant. Reduced GDC activity in the mutant downregulated Calvin Cycle and nitrogen assimilation genes, upregulated key enzymes of glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) pathway and modified accumulation of sugars and TCA intermediates. Thus, photorespiratory Ser production can be replaced by other metabolic Ser sources, but this replacement deregulates the cross-talk between S, N, and C metabolism.

Aspects of the Neurospora crassa sulfur starvation response are revealed by transcriptional profiling and DNA affinity purification sequencing

Project description:Accurate nutrient sensing is important for rapid fungal growth and exploitation of available resources. Sulfur is an important nutrient source found in a number of biological macromolecules, including proteins and lipids. The model filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is capable of utilizing sulfur found in a variety of sources from amino acids to sulfate. During sulfur starvation, the transcription factor CYS-3 is responsible for upregulation of genes involved in sulfur uptake and assimilation. Using a combination of RNA sequencing and DNA affinity purification sequencing, we performed a global survey of the N. crassa sulfur starvation response and the role of CYS-3 in regulating sulfur responsive genes. Along with genes known to be involved in sulfur metabolism, the CYS-3 transcription factor also directly activated the expression of a number of uncharacterized transporter genes, suggesting that regulating sulfur import is an important aspect of regulation by CYS-3. Additionally, CYS-3 directly regulated the expression of genes involved in mitochondrial electron transfer. During sulfur starvation, genes involved in nitrogen metabolism, such as amino acid and nucleic acid metabolic pathways, along with genes encoding proteases and nucleases that are necessary for scavenging nitrogen, were activated. Sulfur starvation also caused changes in the expression of genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, such as those encoding glycosyl hydrolases. Thus, our data suggest a connection between sulfur metabolism and other aspects of cellular metabolism.

Stoichiometry of two plant glycine decarboxylase complexes and comparison with a cyanobacterial glycine cleavage system

Project description:The multienzyme glycine cleavage system (GCS) converts glycine and tetrahydrofolate to the one-carbon compound 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, which is of vital importance for most if not all organisms. Photorespiring plant mitochondria contain very high levels of GCS proteins organized as a fragile glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC). The aim of this study is to provide mass spectrometry-based stoichiometric data for the plant leaf GDC and examine whether complex formation could be a general property of the GCS in photosynthesizing organisms. To this end, we investigated the mitochondrial content, the stoichiometry and the isoprotein composition of the Arabidopsis thaliana leaf GDC in comparison with that of Pisum sativum using stable-isotope-labeled peptides (QconCAT and synthetic labeled peptides) and compared the results to label-free, Hi3 peptide quantification.

Sulfate assimilation in Clostridium thermocellum

Project description:Investigation of sulfur metabolism in Clostridium thermocellum DSM 1313 ∆hpt, to determine growth and gene expression when the organism is incubated with either the oxidized (i.e., sulfate) or the reduced and assimilated (i.e., cysteine) forms of sulfur. A sulfite reductase (∆hpt ∆SO3R) knockout mutant to limit sulfur assimilation was created to compare the resulting gene expression patterns by RNAseq transciptomics against the parental strain (∆hpt) when both are grown in the presence of sulfate. Additionally, we bypass the sulfate auxotrophy of the mutant by providing assimilated sulfur in the form of cysteine to determine whether growth is restored to normal and whether methionine can be biosynthesized by yet uncharacterized pathways in this organism.

Replacing the Calvin cycle with the reductive glycine pathway in Cupriavidus necator

Project description:These data belong to a metabolic engineering project that introduces the reductive glycine pathway for formate assimilation in Cupriavidus necator. As part of this project we performed short-term evolution of the bacterium Cupriavidus necator H16 to grow on glycine as sole carbon and energy source. Some mutations in a putiative glycine transporting systems facilitated growth, and we performed transcriptomics on the evolved strain growing on glycine. Analysis of these transcriptomic data lead us to the discovery of a glycine oxidase (DadA6), which we experimentally demonstrated to play a key role in the glycine assimilation pathay in C. necator.

Gene expression in roots of slim1 and the parental line grown +/-S condition

Project description:Plants utilize soil sulfate for production of sulfur-containing amino acids that serve as essential dietary sulfur sources for animals. Despite the global nutritional significance of this fundamental metabolic process in nature, transcription factors regulating the plant sulfur assimilation pathways have never been discovered. We isolated sulfur limitation1 (slim1) mutants from Arabidopsis, showing abnormally low expression of SULTR1;2 sulfate transporter, by screening responsiveness of SULTR1;2 promoter-GFP, as an indicator, to sulfur limitation. SLIM1 encoded an EIL-family transcription factor, EIL3. To clarify the siganificance of SLIM1 function in sulfur responsive gene expression, we analyzed the transcriptome profiles in slim1-1, slim1-2 and the parental line under +S and -S conditions. Keywords: comparison of mutant and wild type, sulfur limitation response, nutritional stress response

Expression of formate-THF ligase has a deep impact on primary metabolism of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Project description:The introduction of alternative CO2-fixing pathways such as formate synthesis and assimilation may improve the efficiency of biological carbon fixation that appears to be limited by the enzymatic properties of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RubisCO). Here we aimed to establish a formate assimilation pathway in the model cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The formate-tetrahydrofolate ligase (FTL) from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 was expressed in Synechocystis to enable formate assimilation and reduce the loss of fixed carbon in the photorespiratory pathway. Transgenic strains accumulated serine and 3-phosphoglycerate, and consumed more 2-phosphoglycolate and glycine, which seemed to reflect the efficient utilization of formate. However, labelling experiments showed that the serine accumulation was not due to the expected incorporation of formate. DNA-microarray experiments were performed to analyze possible transcriptome changes due to ftl expression. Marked changes in expression of genes encoding proteins associated with serine biosynthesis and enzymes involved in nitrogen and C1 metabolism revealed that ftl expression had a regulatory impact on these metabolic routes. Our results indicate that the expression of new pathways could have a severe impact on the cellular regulatory network, which hampers the establishment of newly designed pathways.

RNA-seq analysis of the transcriptome from Sulfur Deprivation Chlamydomonas cells

Project description:The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transcriptome was characterized from nutrient-replete and sulfur-depleted wild-type and snrk2.1 mutant cells; the mutant is null for the regulatory serine-threonine kinase SNRK2.1, which is required for acclimation to sulfur deprivation. The transcriptome analyses involved microarray hybridization and RNA-seq technology; RT-qPCR evaluation of the data obtained by these techniques showed that RNA-seq is significantly more quantitative than microarray hybridizations. Sulfur-deprivation-responsive transcripts included those encoding proteins involved in sulfur acquisition and assimilation, recycling of sulfur-containing amino acids, synthesis of reduced sulfur metabolites and cofactors, and modification of cellular structures such as the cell wall and complexes associated with the photosynthetic apparatus. Moreover, the data suggest that cells deprived of sulfur favors accumulation of proteins with fewer sulfur-containing amino acids. Most of these sulfur-deprivation responses are controlled by the SNRK2.1 kinase. Furthermore, the snrk2.1 mutant exhibits a set of unique responses during both sulfur-replete and sulfur-depleted conditions that are not observed in wild-type cells. Many of these responses are likely to be elicited by singlet O2 accumulation in the mutant cells. The transcriptome results for the wild-type and mutant cells strongly suggest the occurrence of massive changes in cellular physiology and metabolism as the cells become depleted for sulfur, and reveal aspects of acclimation that are likely critical for cell survival. The three supplementary files GSE17970_supplemental_table_*.xls below include results of the differential expression analysis (expression estimates, fold changes and p-values), and different clusters of functionally related genes.

MetR is a global regulator controlling phytochrome-dependent light responses in Aspergillus nidulans

Project description:Phytochrome-dependent light signaling has been studied in several fungi. In Aspergillus nidulans light-stimulated phytochrome activates the HOG signaling pathway and thereby controls the expression of a large number of genes, many of which are related to stress responses. In a genome-wide expression analysis in A. nidulans we found that phytochrome, fphA, is under strict expression control of the central regulator of the sulfur-starvation response, MetR. This transcriptional regulator is required for the expression of genes involved in inorganic sulfur assimilation. In the presence of organic sulfur, MetR is probably ubiquitinated and possibly degraded and the transcription of sulfur-assimilation genes, e.g. sulfate permease, is turned off. The expression analysis described here revealed, however, that MetR additionally controls the expression of hundreds of genes, many of which are required for secondary metabolite production. We also show that metR mutation phenocopies fphA deletion, and five other histidine-hybrid kinases are down-regulated in the metR1 mutant. Furthermore, we show that light and phytochrome regulate the expression of at least three carbon-sulfur hydrolases. This work is a further step towards understanding the interplay between light sensing and metabolic pathways.
