Project description:H. jecorina undergoes a heterothallic reproductive cycle, and the mating yields asci with 16 linearly arranged ascospores. The sixteen ascospores are generated via two rounds of postmeiotic mitosis following the two meiotic divisions. We have discovered that viable aneuploid ascosporesare are frequently (~90%) generated due to a net gain of a conserved ~500 kbp genomic segment. Here we have compared whole genome gene copy number changes in the aneuploid F1 progeny, euploid F1 progeny, parental strains and the F1 progeny of RTU strain backcross with CBS999.97 .

We determined genome-wide gene copy number in the genomes of ascospores generated from haploid wild-type strain. We also determined genome-wide gene copy number in the genomes of the F1 progeny of CBS999.97 wild type.

Project description:In sexual organisms, random meiotic recombination between homologous chromosomes is vital to maximize genetic variation among offspring. The sex-determining region (SDR), however, does not undergo recombination, as required for the maintenance of distinct alleles. The contribution of epigenetic versus genetic mechanisms to suppress recombination in SDRs and how the suppression mechanisms evolve remain poorly understood. Here we describe the mechanistic control of meiotic recombination at the mating-type locus (MT) in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We identify a maintenance DNA methyltransferase, DNMT1, mutation of which leads to the depletion of 95% of 5-methylcytosines (5mCs) in the nuclear genome. While the 5mC deficiency causes no discernible alteration in haploid vegetative growth or sexual differentiation, the dnmt1 homozygotes display substantially reduced spore viability and 4-progeny-tetrad frequency. Strikingly, in dnmt1 homozygotes, anomalous meiotic recombination takes place at MT, generating haploid progenies with mixed mating-type harboring both plus and minus markers. Although the repressive histone methylation H3K9me1 at MT is lost concurrently in dnmt1 strains, loss of histone methylation alone by gene deletion of the responsible histone methyltransferase SET3p does not lead to anomalous recombination at MT. Thus, DNA methylation, rather than histone modification, mediates the recombination suppression at MT in C. reinhardtii. This finding suggests that in early eukaryotes, which likely lacked histone-based chromatin modification, DNA methylation may have been co-opted to suppress meiotic recombination between alleles responsible for separate sexes.

Project description:Human development relies on the correct replication, maintenance and segregation of our genetic blueprints. How these processes are monitored across embryonic lineages, and why genomic mosaicism varies during development remain unknown. Using pluripotent stem cells, we identify that several patterning signals –including WNT, BMP and FGF– converge into the modulation of DNA replication stress and damage during S-phase, which in turn controls chromosome segregation fidelity in mitosis. We show that the WNT and BMP signals protect from excessive origin firing, DNA damage and chromosome missegregation derived from stalled forks in pluripotency. Cell signalling control of chromosome segregation declines during lineage specification into the three germ layers, but re-emerges in neural progenitors. In particular, we find that the neurogenic factor FGF2 induces DNA replication stress-mediated chromosome missegregation during the onset of neurogenesis, which could provide a rationale for the elevated chromosomal mosaicism of the developing brain. Our results highlight roles for morphogens and cellular identity in genome maintenance that contribute to somatic mosaicism during mammalian development.

Project description:Sexual identity of the human pathogenic mold Aspergillus fumigatus is determined by the mating-type idiomorphs MAT1-1 and MAT1-2 residing at the MAT locus. Given that the MAT1 gene products are DNA binding master regulators that govern fruiting body formation, the MAT1-driven transcriptomes of A. fumigatus were monitored by conditional overexpression of either MAT1 gene followed by RNA-seq analyses.
