Lipidomics data for "Marine invertebrate life history evolution: a comparative analysis of sea urchin egg provisioning using mass spectrometry"

ABSTRACT: We performed untargeted, high-resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to generate lipidomic and proteomic profiles of eggs and larvae from three sea urchin species: the lecithotroph Heliocidaris erythrogramma, the closely-related planktotroph Heliocidaris tuberculata, and the more distantly-related planktotroph Lytechinus variegatus. We identify numerous molecular changes involving several previously undescribed physiological adaptations possibly associated with the evolution of lecithotrophic development including upregulated carbohydrate metabolism during embryonic development and long-term storage of maternally-derived diacylglycerol ether lipids for post-metamorphic survivorship. These findings demonstrate how mass spectrometry can enrich our understanding of life history evolution by identifying specific molecules associated with distinct life history strategies.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Isobutanol is a promising next generation biofuel with demonstrated high yield microbial production, but the toxicity of this molecule reduces fermentation volumetric productivity and final titers. Organic solvent tolerance is a complex, multigenic phenotype that has been recalcitrant to rational engineering approaches. We apply experimental evolution followed by genome resequencing and a gene expression study to elucidate genetic bases on adaptation to exogenous isobutanol stress. RESULTS:The adaptations acquired in our evolved lineages exhibit antagonistic pleiotropy between minimal and rich medium, and appear to be specific to the effects of longer chain alcohols. By examining genotypic adaptation in multiple independent lineages, we find evidence of parallel evolution in hfq, mdh, acrAB, gatYZABCD, and rph genes. Many isobutanol tolerant lineages show reduced rpoS activity, perhaps related to mutations in hfq or acrAB. Consistent with the complex, multigenic nature of solvent tolerance, we observe adaptations in a diversity of cellular processes. Many adaptations appear to involve epistasis between different mutations, implying a rugged fitness landscape for isobutanol tolerance. We observe a trend of evolution targeting post-transcriptional regulation and high centrality nodes of biochemical networks. Collectively, the genotypic adaptations we observe suggest mechanisms of adaptation to isobutanol stress based on remodelling the cell envelope and surprisingly, stress response attenuation. CONCLUSIONS:We have discovered a set of genotypic adaptations that confer increased tolerance to exogenous isobutanol stress. Our results are immediately useful to efforts to engineer more isobutanol tolerant host strains of E. coli for isobutanol production. We suggest that rpoS and post-transcriptional regulators, such as hfq, RNA helicases, and sRNAs may be interesting mutagenesis targets for futurue global phenotype engineering. Two strains (WT strain and G3.2 mutant strain), each with two culture conditions (with and without isobutanol in medium). Three biological replicates for each strain/culture condition. Twelve samples in total.
