Project description:Samples GSM206658-GSM206693: Acquired Stress resistance in S. cerevisiae: NaCl primary and H2O2 secondary Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells exposed to 0.7M NaCl alone, 0.5mM H2O2 alone, or 0.5mM H2O2 following 0.7M NaCl, all compared to an unstressed sample. Repeated using msn2∆ strain. Samples GSM291156-GSM291196: Transcriptional response to stress in strains lacking MSN2 and/or MSN4 Transcriptional timecourses of yeast cells (WT, msn2∆, msn4∆, or msn2∆msn4∆) exposed to 0.7M NaCl for 45 minutes or 30-37˚C Heat Shift for 15 min compared to an unstressed sample of the same strain.

Project description:In this experiment we tested the transcriptome of transgenic Arabidopsis seedlings (5-day-old) constitutively expressing the zinc-finger protein Zat12 (At5g59820) under the control of the 35S-CaMV promoter (Zat12). The transcriptome of these seedlings was compared to that of wild type seedlings grown under the same conditions (WT) and to that of wild type seedlings grown under the same conditions and subjected to a hydrogen peroxide stress (WT+H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide treatment was performed by applying 20 mM hydrogen peroxide for 1 hour. In parallel to these experiments transgenic plants expressing Zat12 were subjected to a similar hydrogen peroxide stress (Zat12+H2O2). All treatments were performed with similar size and age seedlings grown in liquid culture (MS) and sampled at the same time as described by Davletova et al., 2005.

Project description:Functional analysis of the Mtl1 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has revealed that this transmembrane sensor endows yeast cells with resistance to oxidative stress by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment through a signaling mechanism called the cell wall integrity pathway (CWI). Quantitative mRNA expression analysis revealed that genes containing the Stress Response Element (STRE) element 5’-AGGGG-3’, a regulatory sequence recognized by activating Transcription Factors (TFs) Msn2 and Msn4, were transcriptionally repressed by 2-fold or greater in the mtl1Δ strains. Since these TFs are negatively regulated by PKA, this observation suggests that Mtl1p signaling modulates the inhibitory activity of PKA over the transcription of specific stress response genes. Upregulation of multiple heat shock proteins (HSPs) and the phosphatase subunit of trehalose 6-phosphate synthase suggests that mtl1Δ strains undergo intrinsic activation of a non-lethal heat stress response, which appears to be controlled by Mtl1p. Furthermore, quantitative global proteomic analysis of TMT-labeled proteins combined with metabolome analysis revealed that mtl1Δ strains exhibit decreased levels of metabolites of carboxylic acid metabolism, decreased expression of anabolic enzymes and increased expression of catabolic enzymes involved in the metabolism of amino acids, and enhanced expression of mitochondrial respirasome proteins. These observations support the notion that Mtl1p has an important role in metabolic regulatory mechanisms linked to TORC1 that are required to maintain cellular homeostasis and optimal mitochondrial function.
