Project description:Messenger RNA secondary structure is critical to all aspects of post-transcriptional regulation. However, the global regulatory and evolutionary significance of mRNA secondary structure remains largely illusive. Here, we describe a transcriptome-wide analysis of RNA secondary structure in humans and two non-human primates, based on a high-throughput, nuclease-mediated, structure mapping approach. Using this methodology, we uncover global patterns of mRNA secondary structure, which we find to be conserved through primate evolution. We provide evidence for secondary structure-based regulatory pathways, which impact on gene expression through associations with translational machinery and RNA-binding proteins, including components of the microprocessor complex. Our results lend support to an unexpected, conserved mechanism by which highly structured regions of mRNAs serve as processing sites for small RNAs, resulting in subsequent turnover. Global mRNA secondary structure analysis in primate transcriptomes using high-throughput, nuclease-mediated, structure mappinng approaches of dsRNA-seq and ssRNA-seq, also with polyA+ mRNA-seq, smRNA-seq (small RNA), and genome-wide mapping of uncapped and cleaved transcripts (GMUCT); these NGS-seq experiments were carried out in three primate brains as well as three different cell lines, both in in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:Despite recent knowledge of the potential environmental impact that compounds present in municipal wastewater effluents, including contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), may have, the implications of fish exposure to this contaminant mixtures are not completely understood. The effects caused by effluent CECs may be subtle and diverse, thus the need for sensitive and comprehensive tools such as gene expression to detect such responses. In this study, we conducted laboratory exposures that examined plasma concentrations of vitellogenin (VTG), changes in secondary sexual characteristics and gene expression in sexually mature male fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) exposed to environmentally realistic (0.5%) and higher (5%) concentrations of municipal wastewater effluents. Secondary and primary treated effluents were used. Several of the 32 CECs investigated were detected, including pharmaceuticals, personal care products, hormones, current use pesticides and industrial compounds. The percent of males with detectable levels of VTG was higher in fish exposed to effluent treatments. An increased number of males with changes in secondary sexual characteristics (e.g. development of ovipositors), was observed in fish exposed to 5% effluent treatments. Gene expression data indicated that overall expression patterns were characteristic to each effluent. Higher numbers of differentially expressed genes were observed in fish exposed to primary treated effluent when compared to controls. Differentially expressed genes belonged to several functional categories, including xenobiotic metabolism, estogenicity and energy/metabolism processes. Gene expression data provided information to understand some of the mechanisms behind the effects observed at higher biological levels. To investigate gene expression responses resulting from exposure to POTW effluents, two laboratory experiments were conducted using effluent from San Diego (Point Loma; SD) and Los Angeles (Hyperion; LA). The LA effluent received secondary treatment and the SD effluent received advanced primary treatment. Treatments used during exposures consisted of negative controls (moderately hard water), positive controls (E2), and 0.5% and 5% effluent concentrations. The 0.5% concentration of effluent represented an environmentally realistic exposure level. The 5% effluent concentration represented a higher level at which we expected biological responses. The exposures lasted 14 days. Treatments: EFFHa = 5% primary treated effluent EFFHb = 5% secondary treated effluent EFFLa = 0.5% primary treated effluent E2a = Estradiol, positive control for primary effluent E2b = Estradiol, positive control for secondary effluent CTRLa = Moderately hard water, negative control for primary effluent CTRLb = Moderately hard water, negative control for secondary effluent

Project description:Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in treated municipal effluents have the potential to adversely impact exposed organisms prompting elevated public concern. Using transcriptomic tools, we investigated changes in gene expression and cellular pathways in the liver of male fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) exposed to 5% concentrations of full secondary-treated (HTP) or advanced primary-treated (PL) municipal wastewater effluents containing CECs. Gene expression changes were associated with apical endpoints (plasma vitellogenin and changes in secondary sexual characteristics). Of 32 effluent CECs analyzed, 28 were detected including pharmaceuticals, personal care products, hormones, and industrial compounds. Transcript patterns differed between effluents, however < 10% of these had agreement in the detected response (e.g. transcrips involved in xenobiotic detoxification, oxidative stress and apoptosis) in both effluents. Exposure to PL effluent caused changes in transcript levels of genes involved in metabolic pathways (e.g., lipid transport and steroid metabolism). Exposure to HTP effluent affected transcripts involved in signaling pathways (e.g., focal adhesion assembly and extracellular matrix). Exposure to both effluents produced significantly higher levels of plasma VTG and changes in secondary sexual characteristics (e.g., ovipositor development). Taken together the results suggest, a potential association between some transcriptomic changes and higher biological responses following effluent exposure; and a potential adverse outcome pathway following exposure to complex chemical mixtures containing CECs -. Furthermore, this study identified responses in key genes and pathways not previously implicated in exposure to CECS, , which could be consistent with effluent exposure (e.g., oxidative stress) in addition to other pathway responses specific to the effluent type. This may be useful for assessing the adverse health effects of fish by effluents exposure to CECs.

Project description:Histone modifications have been shown to be crucial for secondary metabolism in various filamentous fungi. Here we studied the influence of histone acetylation on secondary metabolite production in the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium fujikuroi, a known producer of several secondary metabolites including pigments and mycotoxins. Deletion of the classical HDACs FfHdF1, FfHdF2 and FfHdF3 indicated that FfHdF1 and FfHdF2 are major regulators of secondary metabolism, whereas FfHdF3 is involved in developmental processes but dispensable for secondary metabolite production in F. fujikuroi. Microarray analysis with the major HDAC FfHdF2 revealed differential regulation of several secondary metabolite gene clusters, subsequently verified by a combination of chemical and biological approaches. These results indicate that HDACs are responsible for gene silencing but also gene activation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays with M-NM-^TffhdF2 revealed significant alterations regarding the acetylation state in the landscape of secondary metabolite gene clusters thereby providing insights into the regulatory mechanism. In addition, the class I HDAC FfHdF1 also has major impact on secondary metabolism in F. fujikuroi. Furthermore, deletion of both ffhdF1 and ffhdF2 resulted in de-repression of secondary metabolites under normally repressing conditions. Thus, manipulation of HDAC encoding genes might provide a powerful tool for the activation of cryptic secondary metabolites. Investigation of whole genome gene expression of the Fusarium fujikuroi wild type IMI58289, M-NM-^TffhdF2 mutant under nitrogen starvation and nitrogen sufficient conditions. In this study we hybridized in total 12 microarrays using total RNA recovered from a wild-type culture of F. fujikuroi IMI58289 and M-NM-^TffhdF2 mutant culture. All cultures were grown on a 6 mM Gln (10%) and a 60 mM Gln medium (100%). For each combination of culture and medium a biological replicate was created. Each chip measures the expression level of 14,397 genes from F. fujikuroi IMI58289 with eight 60-mer probes.

Project description:Fusarium fujikuroi is a biotechnologically important fungus due to its almost unique ability to produce gibberellic acids (GAs), a family of phytohormones. The fungus was described about 100 years ago as the causative agent of Bakanae (M-bM-^@M-^\foolish seedlingM-bM-^@M-^]) disease of rice. Apart from GAs, the fungus is known to produce pigments and mycotoxins, but the biosynthetic genes are known for only eight products. Here we present a high-quality genome sequence of the first member of the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex (GFC) that allowed de novo genome assembly with 12 scaffolds corresponding to the 12 chromosomes. In this work we focused on identification of all potential secondary metabolism-related gene clusters and their regulation in response to nitrogen availability by transcriptome, proteome, HPLC-FTMS and ChIP-seq analyses. We show that most of the cluster genes are regulated in a nitrogen-dependent manner, and that expression profiles fit to proteome and ChIP-seq data for some but not all clusters. Comparison with genomes of all available Fusarium species, including the recently sequenced F. mangiferae and F. circinatum, showed only a small number of common gene clusters and provides new insights into the divergence of secondary metabolism in the genus Fusarium. Phylogenetic analyses suggest that some gene clusters were acquired by horizontal gene transfer, while others were present in ancient Fusarim species and have evolved differently by gene duplications and losses. One polyketide synthase (PKS) and one non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene cluster are unique for F. fujikuroi. Their products were identified by combining overexpression of cluster genes with HPLC-FTMS-based analyses. In planta expression studies suggest a specific role of the PKS19 product in rice infection. Our results indicate that comparative genomics together with the used genome-wide experimental approaches is a powerful tool to uncover new secondary metabolites and to understand their regulation at the transcriptional, translational and epigenetic levels.

Project description:Secondary transporters undergo structural rearrangements to catalyze substrate translocation across the cell membrane – yet how such conformational changes happen within a lipid environment remains poorly understood. Here, we combine hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand how lipids regulate the conformational dynamics of secondary transporters at the molecular level. Using the homologous transporters XylE, LacY and GlpT from Escherichia coli as model systems, we discover that conserved networks of charged residues act as molecular switches that drive the conformational transition between different states. We reveal that these molecular switches are regulated by interactions with surrounding phospholipids and show that phosphatidylethanolamine interferes with the formation of the conserved networks and favors an inward-facing state. Overall, this work provides insights into the importance of lipids in shaping the conformational landscape of an important class of transporters.

Project description:By using a novel high-throughput method, named chemical inference of RNA structures (CIRS-seq), that uses dimethyl sulfate (DMS), and N-cyclohexyl-N'-(2-morpholinoethyl)carbodiimide metho-p-toluenesulfonate (CMCT) to modify RNA residues in single-stranded conformation within native RNA secondary structures, we investigated the structural features of mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC) transcripts. Our analysis revealed an unexpected higher structuring of the 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) compared to the coding regions, a reduced structuring at the Kozak sequence and stop codon, and a three-nucleotide periodicity across the coding region of messenger RNAs. We also observed that ncRNAs exhibit a higher degree of structuring with respect to protein coding transcripts. Moreover, we found that the Lin28a binding protein binds selectively to RNA motifs with a strong preference toward a single stranded conformation.
