Project description:The developed method was applied to annotate the glycosides from different aerial parts (leaves, silk, and seeds) of maize. A total of 274 glycosides (including 28 acyl-glycosides) were tentatively annotated in maize by the developed method. The method enables effective and reliable annotation for plant glycosides.

Project description:Single-cell transcriptomics (scRNA-seq) has transformed our ability to discover and annotate cell types and states, but deep biological understanding requires more than a taxonomic listing of clusters. As new methods arise to measure distinct cellular modalities, including high-dimensional immunophenotypes, chromatin accessibility, and spatial positioning, a key analytical challenge is to integrate these datasets into a harmonized atlas that can be used to better understand cellular identity and function. Here, we developed a computational strategy to "anchor" diverse datasets together, enabling us to integrate and compare single-cell measurements not only across scRNA-seq technologies, but different modalities as well. As one demonstration of the method, we anchor single-cell protein measurements with a human bone marrow atlas to annotate and characterize lymphocyte populations. The multimodal data, generated using CITE-seq, is provided here alongside a corresponding bulk validation experiment.

Project description:Ustilago maydis causes common smut in maize, which is characterized by tumor formation in aerial parts of maize. Tumor comes from the de novo cell division of highly developed bundle sheath and subsequent cell enlargement. However, its mechanism is still unknown. Here, we characterize the U. maydis effector Sts2 (Small tumor on seedlings 2), which promotes the division of hyperplasia tumor cells. Upon infection, Sts2 is translocated into maize cell nucleus, where it acts as a transcriptional activator, and the transactivation activity is crucial for its virulence function. Sts2 interacts with ZmNECAP1, a yet undescribed plant transcriptional activator, and it activates the expression of several leaf developmental regulators to potentiate tumor formation. Contrary, a suppressive Sts2-SRDX inhibits the tumor formation by SG200 in a dominant negative way, underpinning the central role of Sts2 for tumorigenesis. Our results not only disclosed the virulence mechanism of a tumorigenic effector, but also revealed the essential role of leaf developmental regulators in pathogen-induced tumor formation.

Project description:The biotrophic fungal pathogen Ustilago maydis cause common smut in maize, and lead to gall formation on all aerial organs, especially on maize kernel thus reduce yield. The interaction of U. maydis with maize is a well-established model to study the interaction between maize and biotrophic pathogen. U. maydis infection could activate host immune responses including: ROS accumulation, protease activation, salicylic acid signaling. U. maydis employ several strategies to overcome maize immune response, thus initial the biotrophic interaction with host. It has been suggested that genetic factors of maize host affected the disease severity of U. maydis infection, here we investigated the transcriptome profile of resistance and susceptible maize lines upon U. maydis infection, thus propose candidate maize genes involved in the defense response in maize to corn smut cause by U. maydis.

Project description:Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungus that causes smut disease in maize. Most prominent symptoms of the disease are plant tumors, which can be induced by U. maydis on all aerial parts of the plant. We identified two linked genes, pit1 and pit2, which are specifically expressed during plant colonization. Deletion mutants for either pit1 or pit2 are unable to induce tumor development and elicit plant defense responses. We used the Affymetrix maize genome array to analyze the transcriptional responses of maize to deletion pit1 and pit2 mutants and found plant responses to both mutants being not significantly distinguishable.

Project description:Ustilago maydis causes common smut in maize, which is characterized by tumor formation in aerial parts of maize. Tumors result from the de novo cell division of highly developed bundle sheath and subsequent cell enlargement. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis are still largely unknown. Here, we characterize the U. maydis effector Sts2 (Small tumor on seedlings 2), which promotes the division of hyperplasia tumor cells. Upon infection, Sts2 is translocated into the maize cell nucleus, where it acts as a transcriptional activator, and the transactivation activity is crucial for its virulence function. Sts2 interacts with ZmNECAP1, a yet undescribed plant transcriptional activator, and it activates the expression of several leaf developmental regulators to potentiate tumor formation. On the contrary, fusion of a suppressive SRDX-motif to Sts2 causes dominant negative inhibition of tumor formation, underpinning the central role of Sts2 for tumorigenesis. Our results not only disclose the virulence mechanism of a tumorigenic effector, but also reveal the essential role of leaf developmental regulators in pathogen-induced tumor formation.

Project description:IntroductionOsteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that tumor proliferation and metastasis are closely related to complex metabolic reprogramming. However, there are limited data to provide a comprehensive metabolic picture of osteosarcoma.ObjectivesOur study aims to identify aberrant metabolic pathways and seek potential adjuvant biomarkers for osteosarcoma.MethodsSerum samples were collected from 65 osteosarcoma patients and 30 healthy controls. Nontargeted metabolomic profiling was performed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) based on univariate and multivariate statistical analyses.ResultsThe OPLS-DA model analysis identified clear separations among groups. We identified a set of differential metabolites such as higher serum levels of adenosine-5-monophosphate, inosine-5-monophosphate and guanosine monophosphate in primary OS patients compared to healthy controls, and higher serum levels of 5-aminopentanamide, 13(S)-HpOTrE (FA 18:3 + 2O) and methionine sulfoxide in lung metastatic OS patients compared to primary OS patients, revealing aberrant metabolic features during the proliferation and metastasis of osteosarcoma. We found a group of metabolites especially lactic acid and glutamic acid, with AUC values of 0.97 and 0.98, which could serve as potential adjuvant diagnostic biomarkers for primary osteosarcoma, and a panel of 2 metabolites, 5-aminopentanamide and 13(S)-HpOTrE (FA 18:3 + 2O), with an AUC value of 0.92, that had good monitoring ability for lung metastases.ConclusionsOur study provides new insight into the aberrant metabolic features of osteosarcoma. The potential biomarkers identified here may have translational significance.

Project description:Expression profiling analyses for eight maize inbreds reveals extensive transcriptional variation. Many genes exhibit presence-absence variation among the inbred lines. Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix expression profiling was used to study gene expression in aerial tissue from 11-day seedlings of maize. Three biological replicates were performed for eight different inbred lines; B37, B73, B84, Mo17, Oh43, B14a, Wf9 and W22.

Project description:The rep1 gene of the maize pathogen Ustilago maydis encodes a pre-pro-protein that is processed in the secretory pathway into 11 peptides. These so-called repellents form amphipathic amyloid fibrils at the surface of aerial hyphae. Strains in which the rep1 gene is inactivated (∆rep1 strain) are affected in aerial hyphae formation. This makes these strains instrumental to assess changes in global gene expression as a consequence of aerial growth. Microarray analysis revealed that only 31 genes in the ∆rep1 SG200 strain had a fold change in expression of >= 2. Twenty-two of these genes are up-regulated and half of them encode small secreted proteins (SSP’s) with unknown functions. Seven of the SSP genes and two other genes that are over-expressed in the ∆rep1 SG200 strain encode secreted cysteine-rich proteins (SCRP’s). Interestingly, most of the SCRP’s are predicted to form amyloids. The SCRP gene um00792 showed the highest up-regulation in the ∆rep1 strain. Using GFP as a reporter, it was shown that this gene is over-expressed in the layer of hyphae at the medium-air interface. Taken together, it is concluded that only minor changes occur in the expression profile when U. maydis forms aerial structures. Key words: aerial hypha, repellent, hydrophobin-like protein, Ustilago maydis, SSP, SCRP, fungal pathogenicity.
