Project description:Nrd1 and Nab3 are two yeast RNA binding proteins which have been shown to be involved in transcription termination of non poly(A) genes. We have used expression profiling of a Nab3 mutant to discover novel RNA targets of the Nrd1 and Nab3 transcription termination pathway. Failure to terminate RNA polymerase II by Nab3 leads to continued transcription well beyond the correct termination sites, altering the expression of adjacent downstream genes. Using this concept, our microarray uncovered the up-regulation of numerous genes that are located downstream of âcryptic unstable transcriptsâ, transcripts that are transcribed, terminated and rapidly degraded by Nrd1, Nab3, and the nuclear exosome. Experiment Overall Design: Four yeast total RNA samples where analyzed in this study. These RNAs come from two separate strains of yeast, each strain at either the permissive temperature (25C) or the non-permissive temperature (37C). One of these strains is a wild type strain of yeast used as a control. The other strain has a mutation in the Nab3 protein that confers temperature sensitivity at the non-permissive temperature of 37C. After two hours at the non-permissive temperature, we observe disruptions in the Nrd1/Nab3 transcription termination pathway and this is the scheme that we followed for our microarray experiment. Our goal was to observe the global expression changes after 2 hours without Nab3 function.

Project description:Oxidative stress is experienced by all aerobic organisms and results in cellular damage. The damage caused during oxidative stress is particular to the oxidant challenge faced, and so too is the induced stress response. The eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae is sensitive to low concentrations of the lipid hydroperoxide - linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LoaOOH) - and its response is unique relative to other peroxide treatments. Part of the yeast response to LoaOOH includes a change in the cellular requirement for nutrients, such as sulfur, nitrogen and various metal ions. The metabolism of sulfur is involved in antioxidant defence, although the role nitrogen during oxidative stress is not well understood. Investigating the response induced by yeast to overcome LoaOOH exposure, with a particular focus on nitrogen metabolism, will lead to greater understanding of how eukaryotes survive lipid hydroperoxide-induced stress, and associated lipid peroxidation, which occurs in the presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids. We used genome-wide microarrays to investigate the changes in gene expression of S. cerevisiae (Dal80Δ) to LoaOOH-induced oxidative stress.

Project description:Frozen dough baking is useful method in the modern bread-making industry. However, the fermentation activity of bakerâs yeast dramatically decreased after thawing due to freeze injuries, because bakerâs yeast cells contained in dough experience freeze injuries during freeze-thaw processes. Here, we performed genome-wide expression analysis to determine genetic response in bakerâs yeasts under freeze-thaw condition using a DNA microarray analysis. Functional and clustering analyses in gene expression reveal that genes could be characterized by the term of freeze-thaw stress. Under short-term freeze stress (freeze treatment for 3 day), genes involved in ribosomal protein were up-regulated. Under long-term freeze stress (freeze treatment for longer than 7 day), genes involved in energy synthesis were up-regulated. In each phase, genes involved in protein damage, several stresses and trehalose and glycogen metabolism were also up-regulated. Through these freeze stress, yeast cells may improve reduced efficiency of translation and enhanced cell protection mechanism to survive under freeze stress condition. These regulations of these genes would be controlled by the cAMP-protein kinase A pathway. Experiment Overall Design: All experiments were done in duplicate from two independent samples.

Project description:Yeast zeta-crystallin: An AU-Rich Element Binding Protein Involved in the Nutritional Stress Response
| PRJNA193429 | ENA
Project description:In response to limited nitrogen and abundant carbon sources, diploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains undergo a filamentous transition in cell growth as part of pseudohyphal differentiation. Use of the disaccharide maltose as the principal carbon source, in contrast to the preferred nutrient monosaccharide glucose, has been shown to induce a hyper-filamentous growth phenotype in a strain deficient for GPA2 which codes for a Galpha protein component that interacts with the glucose-sensing receptor Gpr1p to regulate filamentous growth. In this report, we compare the global transcript and proteomic profiles of wild-type and Gpa2p deficient diploid yeast strains grown on both rich and nitrogen starved maltose media. We find that deletion of GPA2 results in significantly different transcript and protein profiles when switching from rich to nitrogen starvation media. The results are discussed with a focus on the genes associated with carbon utilization, or regulation thereof, and a model for the contribution of carbon sensing/metabolism-based signal transduction to pseudohyphal differentiation is proposed.

Project description:Second fermentation in a bottle supposes such specific conditions that undergo yeasts to a set of stress situations like high ethanol, low nitrogen, low pH or sub-optimal temperature. Also, yeast have to grow until 1 or 2 generations and ferment all sugar available while they resist increasing CO2 pressure produced along with fermentation. Because of this, yeast for second fermentation must be selected depending on different technological criteria such as resistance to ethanol, pressure, high flocculation capacity, and good autolytic and foaming properties. All of these stress factors appear sequentially or simultaneously, and their superposition could amplify their inhibitory effects over yeast growth. Considering all of the above, it has supposed interesting to characterize the adaptive response of commercial yeast strain EC1118 during second-fermentation experiments under oenological/industrial conditions by transcriptomic profiling. We have pointed ethanol as the most relevant environmental condition in the induction of genes involved in respiratory metabolism, oxidative stress, autophagy, vacuolar and peroxisomal function, after comparison between time-course transcriptomic analysis in alcoholic fermentation and transcriptomic profiling in second fermentation. Other examples of parallelism include overexpression of cellular homeostasis and sugar metabolism genes. Finally, this study brings out the role of low-temperature on yeast physiology during second-fermentation.

Project description:DNA microarray analysis was used to profile gene expression in a commercial isolate of Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown in a synthetic grape juice medium under conditions mimicking a natural environment for yeast: High-sugar and variable nitrogen conditions. The high nitrogen condition displayed elevated levels of expression of genes involved in biosynthesis of macromolecular precursors across the time course as compared to low-nitrogen. In contrast, expression of genes involved in translation and oxidative carbon metabolism were increased in the low-nitrogen condition, suggesting that respiration is more nitrogen-conserving than fermentation. Several genes under glucose repression control were induced in low-nitrogen in spite of very high (17%) external glucose concentrations, but there was no general relief of glucose repression. Expression of many stress response genes was elevated in stationary phase. Some of these genes were expressed regardless of the nitrogen concentration while others were found at higher levels only under high nitrogen conditions. A few genes, FSP2, RGS2, AQY1, YFL030W, were expressed more strongly with nitrogen limitation as compared to other conditions.

Project description:The yeast protein kinases Sat4/Hal4 and Hal5 are required for the plasma membrane stability of the K+ transporter Trk1 and some amino acid and glucose permeases. The transcriptomic analysis presented here indicates alterations in the general control of both nitrogen and carbon metabolism. Accordingly, we observed reduced uptake of methionine and leucine in the hal4 hal5 mutant. This decrease correlates with activation of the Gcn2-Gcn4 pathway, as measured by expression of the lacZ gene under the control of the Gcn4 promoter. However, with the exception of methionine biosynthetic genes, few amino acid biosynthetic genes are induced in the hal4 hal5 mutant, whereas several genes involved in amino acid catabolism are repressed. Concerning glucose metabolism, we found that this mutant exhibits derepression of respiratory genes in the presence of glucose, leading to an increased activity of mitochondrial enzymes, as measured by SDH activity. In addition, the reduced glucose consumption in the hal4 hal5 mutant correlates with a more acidic intracellular pH and with low activity of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase. As a compensatory mechanism for the low glycolytic rate, the hal4 hal5 mutant overexpresses the HXT4 high affinity glucose transporter and the hexokinase genes. These results indicate that the hal4 hal5 mutant presents defects in the general control of nitrogen and carbon metabolism, which correlate with reduced transport of amino acids and glucose, respectively. A more acidic intracellular pH may contribute to some defects of this mutant.

We used genome-wide microarrays to investigate the changes in gene expression of S. cerevisiae (Dal80M-NM-^T) to LoaOOH-induced oxidative stress. S. cerevisiae (Dal80M-NM-^T) were exposed to an arresting concentration of LoaOOH (75 M-BM-5M) for 1 hr to induce oxidative stress. Yeast treated with an equivalent volume of solvent (methanol) were used as a control. Following treatment conditions, total RNA was extracted from LoaOOH-treated or control yeast and hybridised onto Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:The aim of this study was to determine how nitrogen repletion affected the genomic cell response of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeast strain, in particular within the first hour following relief from nutrient starvation. We found almost 4000 genes induced or repressed sometimes within minutes of nutrient changes. Some of the transcriptional responses to nitrogen depended on the TOR pathway which control positively ribosomal protein genes, amino acid and purine biosynthesis or amino acid permease genes and negatively stress-response genes, RTG specific TCA cycle genes and NCR sensitive genes. Some unexpected transcriptional responses concerned all the glycolytic genes, the starch and glucose metabolism and citrate cycle related genes which were down-regulated, as well as genes from the lipid metabolism.
