Project description:This dataset contains global label-free proteomics data from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultivated under carbon-limited chemostat conditions. Samples were collected under aerobic and anaerobic steady-state conditions and after establishment of a dynamic steady state induced by repetitive glucose pulses. Proteomic analysis was performed to investigate oxygen-dependent metabolic adaptation and long-term proteome reprogramming in response to transient carbon excess under nutrient-limited conditions. Raw mass spectrometry files and processed identification and quantification results are provided.
Project description:The goal of this study was to study this interaction by analyzing genome-wide transcriptional responses to four different nutrient-limitation regimes under aerobic and anaerobic conditions in chemostat cultures of S. cerevisiae. This âtwo-dimensionalâ approach resulted in a new, robust set of âanaerobicâ and âaerobicâ signature transcripts for S. cerevisiae, as well as to a refinement of previous reports on nutrient-responsive genes. Moreover, the identification of genes regulated both by nutrient and oxygen availability provided new insight in cross-regulated network and hierarchy in the control of gene expression.
Project description:The capacity of respiring cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to instantaneously switch to fast alcoholic fermentation upon a transfer to anaerobic sugar-excess conditions is a key characteristic of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in many of its industrial applications. This transition was studied by exposing aerobic glucose-limited chemostat cultures grown at a low specific growth rate to two simultaneous perturbations: oxygen depletion and relief of glucose limitation. This shift towards fully fermentative conditions caused a massive transcriptional response, where one third of all genes within the genome were transcribed differentially. During the first 30 min, most of these changes were driven by relief from glucose limitation. An anaerobic induction response was only observed after the initial response to glucose excess. By comparing this study with public datasets representing dynamic and steady conditions, 14 up-regulated and 11 down-regulated genes were determined to be anaerobiosis specific and can therefore be use as “signature” transcripts for anaerobicity under dynamic as well as under steady state conditions Keywords: global transcriptional time-dependent profile

The glucose was added two min after sparging the continuous culture with pure nitrogen, when the dissolved oxygen concentration had decreased from 75-80% to 10-15% of air saturation. Samples for micro-arrays were taken for each time point after the perturbation (5, 10, 30, 60 and 120 min) from two independently cultured replicates, while steady state data were taken from three independent chemostats. The complete dataset therefore comprised 13 samples.
Project description:Cell proliferation is achieved by numerous enzyme reactions. Temperature governs the activity of each enzyme, which overall determines the optimal growth temperature. Synthesizing useful chemicals and fuels utilizes only part of the metabolic pathways, especially the central metabolic pathways such as glycolysis and TCA cycle to metabolize glucose. However, the optimal temperature for the activity of the central metabolic pathways is inconclusive whether it is correlated with the optimal temperature for cell proliferation. Here, we found that Corynebacterium glutamicum wild type increased the metabolic activity to consume glucose under anaerobic (oxygen deprived) conditions at 42.5ºC, in which the cell hardly grows under aerobic conditions. Glucose consumption rate was increased by 24% at 42.5ºC compared to that at the optimal growth temperature of 30.0ºC. Transcriptional analysis showed that gapX gene encoding glycelaldehydre-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucokinase gene, and a gene involved in glucose uptake were upregulated at 42.5ºC. Production of fermentative lactate was increased by 69% than that at 30.0ºC, whereas succinate production was decreased by 13%. In addition to several glycolytic enzymes, the activity of pyruvate kinase was increased with increasing the temperature, whereas the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in anapleotic pathway leading to succinate synthesis was decreased. However, a metabolically engineered succinate over-producing strain, in which lactate production was shut off and pyruvate carboxylase encoding gene in another anapleotic pathway was overexpressed, produced 34% higher succinate at 42.5ºC than that at 30.0ºC with increased glucose consumption. This study provides the evidence that the optimal reaction temperature for production of fermentative products can be set beyond upper limit of growth temperature in C. glutamicum, and hence it could be applicable for producing various chemicals and fuels in C. glutamicum under anaerobic conditions and non-growing cell reactions in other microorganisms.
Project description:The changes in protein composition of E. coli were studied in a global proteomic approach for aerobic growth without or with fumarate as carbon source (glycerol + O2, fumarate + O2, respectively) and anaerobic growth without or with fumarate as carbon source (glycerol + DMSO, glycerol + DMSO + fumarate, respectively). The experiments should unravel the changes in response to fumarate under aerobic (i) and anaerobic (ii) conditions, and more generally (iii) the fumarate proteome under aerobic versus anaerobic conditions. Fumarate was used as the C4DC due to its capability to support aerobic and anaerobic growth, and glycerol was used as the alternative carbon source that exerts no or only weak carbon catabolite repression.
