A Fungal Transcription Factor Essential for Starch Degradation Regulates Primary Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism and Amino Acid Biosynthesis

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The ∆col-26 mutant cannot utilize starch components and many other simple sugars efficiently. We employed RNA-seq based transcriptome profiling to reveal genes under the control of col-26. Method: We first obtained transcriptional data of Neurospora crassa WT on Vogel's minimal medium (VMM) without carbon source, on VMM with 2% sucrose, and on VMM with starch component, and transcriptional data of the ∆col-26 mutant on VMM with maltose or amylose. Results: We identified a starch-regulon of 322 genes and found that 255 of the starch-regulon were down regulated in in absence of col-26. We also found that genes with functions in primary carbon and nitrogen metabolism and amino acid biosynthesis were also down regulated in the mutant. Conclusion: Our data represents a systematic transcriptome profiling of filamentous fungi on different starch components and identify COL-26 as a critical regulator in both starch degradation and primary carbon and nitrogen regulation.

Overexpression of ZmSUS1 gene alters the content and composition of endosperm starch in maize (Zea mays L.)

Project description:Cereal crops accumulate starch in seeds as an energy reserve. Sucrose synthase (SuSy) plays an important role in grain starch synthesis. In this study, ZmSUS1 was transformed into maize inbred line KN5585, and transgenic plants were obtained. Compared with the control, the content and activity of SuSy were significantly increased, the amylose content in mature seeds of transgenic maize increased by 41.1-69.2%, the total starch content increased by 5.0-13.5%, The 100-grain weight increased by 19.0-26.2% and the average diameter of starch granules increased by 10.8-17.2%. These results indicated that overexpression of ZmSUS1 can significantly improve the traits of maize kernels and obtain new lines with high amylose content. It was also found that ZmSUS1 may increase the amylose content by regulating the expression of Shrunken2 (Sh2) and Brittle2 (Bt2) which encodes endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) size subunits, and the expression of Granule bound starchsynthase1 (GBSS1) and Starch synthase1 (SS1) which encodes starch synthase. This study proved the important role of ZmSUS1 in maize starch synthesis, and provided a new technology strategy for improving corn starch content and yield.

Gene Expression in Rats Fed a Western Diet

Project description:Resistant starches (RS), fed as high amylose maize starch (HAMS) or butyrylated HAMS (HAMSB), oppose dietary protein-induced colonocyte DNA damage in rats. In this study, rats were fed diets high in fat (19%) and protein (20%) with different forms of digestible starch (low amylose maize starch (LAMS) or low amylose whole wheat (LAW)) or RS (HAMS, HAMSB, or a whole high amylose wheat (HAW) generated by RNA interference (RNAi)) for 11 wk. A control diet contained 7% fat, 13% protein and LAMS. The aim of this study was to detect changes in the expression of DNA damage and repair genes in response to the above dietary treatments. Distal colon tissues from Sprague Dawley rats fed a variety of diets (see summary) were removed from RNAlater stabilisation reagent (Sigma, Australia) they had been stored in,, placed in 1 ml of TRIzol® Reagent (Invitrogen, Australia) and homogenised usingbeads (mix of 2.5 mm glass and 0.1 - 1.0 mm diameter silicon-zirconian beads) in a MiniBeadbeater-8 (BioSpec Products Inc., USA). Total RNA was extracted (using TRIzol® Reagent manufacturer's instructions) and further purified using RNAeasy mini spin columns (QIAGEN, Australia) with a DNase on-column digestion as per manufacturer's instructions.RNA integrity was checked using a Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies, USA) andquantified using a NanoDrop® ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). RNA samples with insufficinet quality and quantity were not assayed. The numbers of rats arrayed from each diet were as follows: CON, 5;LAMS, 7; HAMS, 8; HAMSB, 9; LAW, 6; HAW , 8. This gives a total of 43 arrays.

A Novel Regulatory Region for Amylose Synthesis in Rice Grains Identified by Systems Genetics Approach.

Project description:A deeper understanding of the genetics of rice grain starch structure is crucial in tailoring grain digestibility and ensuring cooking quality to meet consumer preferences. Significant association peaks on chromosomes 6 and 7 were identified through genome-wide association study (GWAS) of debranched starch structure from grains of a 320 indica rice diversity panel using genotyping data from the high-density rice array. A systems genetics approach that interrelates starch structure data from GWAS to functional pathways from a gene regulatory network identified known and novel genes with high correlation to the proportion of amylose and amylopectin. A novel SNP in the promoter region of Granule Bound Starch Synthase I (GBSS I) was identified along with seven other SNPs to form haplotypes that discriminate samples into different phenotypic ranges of amylose. A novel GWAS peak on chromosome 7 between LOC_Os07g11020 and LOC_Os07g11520 indexed by a non-synonymous SNP mutation on exon 5 of a bHLH transcription factor was found to elevate the proportion of amylose at the expense of reduced short-chain amylopectin. Linking starch structure with starch digestibility by determining the kinetics of cooked grain amylolysis of selected haplotypes revealed strong association of starch structure with estimated digestibility kinetics. Combining all results from grain quality genomics, systems genetics, and digestibility phenotyping, we propose novel target haplotypes for fine-tuning starch structure in rice through marker-assisted breeding that can be used to alter the digestibility of rice grain, thus offering rice consumers a new diet-based intervention to mitigate the impact of nutrition-related non-communicable diseases.

Transcriptional landscape of Myceliophthora thermophila responding to soluble starch and the role of regulator AmyR on polysaccharide degradation

Project description:Thermophilic fungus Myceliophthora thermophila with great capacity for polysaccharides degradation is attractive to be engineered into a cell factory to produce chemicals and biofuels directly from renewable polysaccharides such as starch. Understanding the molecular mechanism of starch degradation of the fungi would be helpful. To date, there has been no transcriptome analysis on starch in thermophilic fungi. In this study, we performed the transcriptomic profile of M. thermophila responding to soluble starch, and a 342-gene set was identified as “starch regulon”, including the major amylolytic enzyme (Mycth_72393), which was verified thereafter as the most important such hydrolase for starch degradation in this fungus. Moreover, the function of key amylolytic enzyme regulator AmyR in M. thermophila was evaluated by analyzing the performance of its deletion mutant using our CRISPR/Cas9 system, which showed significantly decreased amylase activity and poor growth on starch. Additionally, deletion of amyR led to resistance to carbon catabolite repression (CCR) and enhanced cellulases production. Our study provides an insight into understanding the molecular basis of starch degradation in this thermophilic fungus, and will accelerate the fungal strain rational engineering for starch-based biochemical production.

New Insights into the Biosynthesis and Regulation of Wheat Amylose and Amylopectin from Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Characterization of Granule-binding Proteins

Project description:Waxy starch has an important influence on bread dough and the qualities of breads. Generally, grain weight and yield in waxy wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are significantly lower than in bread wheat. In this study, we performed the first proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of starch granule-binding proteins by comparing the waxy wheat cultivar Shannong 119 and the bread wheat cultivar Nongda 5181. The waxy and non-waxy wheats had similar starch granule morphological features and developmental patterns, and similar amylopectin quality in the grain. These results indicate that reduced amylose content does not affect amylopectin synthesis, but it causes significant reduction of total starch biosynthesis, grain size, weight and yield. Two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis identified 40 differentially expressed protein (DEP) spots in waxy and non-waxy wheats, which belonged mainly to starch synthase (SS) I, SS IIa and granule-bound SS I. Most DEPs involved in amylopectin synthesis showed a similar expression pattern during grain development, suggesting relatively independent amylose and amylopectin synthesis pathways. Phosphoproteome analysis of starch granule-binding proteins, using TiO2 microcolumns and LC-MS/MS, showed that the total number of phosphoproteins and their phosphorylation levels in ND5181 were significantly higher than in SN119, but proteins controlling amylopectin synthesis had similar phosphorylation levels. Dynamic transcriptional expression profiling of starch biosynthesis-related genes indicated similar transcriptional expression profiles in both cultivars. Our results revealed that phosphorylation modifications played critical roles in amylose and amylopectin biosynthesis, but the lack of amylose did not affect the expression and phosphorylation of the starch granule-binding proteins involved in amylopectin biosynthesis.

Elucidating the direct target regulon of NtcA during the early acclimation to nitrogen starvation in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Cyanobacteria are oxygenic photoautotrophs responsible for a substantial proportion of nitrogen fixation and primary production in the hydrosphere. Non-nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria, such as Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, depend of the availability of nitrogenized species to survive. Therefore, an intricate regulatory network around the transcriptional factor NtcA maintains the homeostasis of nitrogen in these organisms. The mechanisms controlling NtcA activity are well understood but a comprehensive study of its regulon is missing in Synechocystis. To define NtcA regulon during the early stage of nitrogen starvation, we have performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChiP-seq), in parallel with genome level transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq). By combining both methods we assigned 51 activated and 28 repressed genes directly by NtcA. Most of direct targets included genes involved in nitrogen and carbon metabolism and photosynthesis. NtcA regulon also included 8 ncRNAs, of which ncr0710, Syr6 and NsiR7 were experimentally validated. Intriguingly, we identified several NtcA intragenic binding sites suggesting that NtcA can modulate transcriptional expression by binding along the whole transcript and not only in the promoter region as previously though. Finally, the transcriptional implication of PipX was analyzed in some NtcA-targets genes, revealing that PipX assists NtcA in the global nitrogen regulation in Synechocystis.
