Project description:Adaptive immunity and the five vertebrate NF-kB/Rel family members first appeared in cartilaginous fish, suggesting that NF-kB family expansion allowed the acquisition of new functions to regulate adaptive immune responses. Transcriptome profiling revealed that, even in macrophages, the NF-kB family member, c-Rel, most potently regulates a cytokine gene linked to adaptive immunity, Il12b, with limiting roles at key regulators of innate immunity. Neofunctionalization of c-Rel to regulate Il12b depends on its unique DNA-binding properties, which we examined using structural, biochemical, functional, and genomic approaches. Among our findings was functional c-Rel homodimer binding to motifs with little resemblance to canonical NF-kB motifs. To determine whether c-Rel’s unique binding properties drove c-Rel-RelA divergence, we compared binding properties in various vertebrate species. c-Rel-RelA binding properties diverged in mammals and amphibians but were comparable in earlier vertebrates, suggesting that divergent DNA binding emerged relatively late during vertebrate evolution to support increasing complexity of adaptive immune regulation.

Project description:Breastfeeding is an obligatory requirement of mammalian survival. This fundamental process is associated with the remodeling of maternal physiology including the transformation of mammary gland into milk-secreting organ. While adaptive immunity has been associated with the broad control of host physiology, how maternal immunity contributes to organismal remodeling during pregnancy including mammary gland remodeling and function remains largely unknown. Here, we show that maternal adaptive immunity plays a critical role in shaping lactogenesis. Specifically, physiological adaptation to pregnancy is associated with thymic involution and paradoxical enrichment in intraepithelial lymphocyte precursors that no longer migrate to the gut but preferentially accumulate within the mammary gland. Within this compartment the precursors develop as T-bet expressing lymphocytes accumulating within the mammary epithelium in an IL-15 dependent manner. Mammary intra-epithelial lymphocytes control milk production by favoring differentiation of both contractile and milk-secreting cells, thereby affecting offspring fitness. Altogether, this work uncovers a previously unappreciated contribution of the maternal adaptive immune system in organismal remodeling during pregnancy associated with mammary gland development and function.

Project description:We used 10X scRNA-Seq to investigate gene expression dynamics and cell type changes in four turbot immuno-organs (gill, head kidney, posterior intestine and spleen) during infection. In total, 103,055 high quality leukocytes were characterized. Our results not only provide a useful resource for the study of fish immune system, but also uncover the origins of adaptive immunity throughout vertebrate evolution.

Project description:Molecular phylogenomics investigates evolutionary relationships based on genomic data. However, despite genomic sequence conservation, changes in protein interactions can occur relatively rapidly and may cause strong functional diversification. To investigate such functional evolution, we here combine phylogenomics with interaction proteomics. We develop this concept by investigating the molecular evolution of the shelterin complex, which protects telomeres, across 16 vertebrate species from zebrafish to humans covering 450 million years of evolution. Our phylointeractomics screen discovers previously unknown telomere-associated proteins and reveals how homologous proteins undergo functional evolution. For instance, we show that TERF1 evolved as a telomere-binding protein in the common stem lineage of marsupial and placental mammals. Phylointeractomics is a versatile and scalable approach to investigate evolutionary changes in protein function and thus can provide experimental evidence for phylogenomic relationships.

Project description:The storage of lipids as energy in adipose tissue (AT) has been conserved over the course of evolution. However, substantial differences in ATs physiological activities were reported between species. Hence, establishing the mechanisms shaping evolutionarily divergence in ATs transcriptomes could provide a deeper understanding of AT regulation and its roles in obesity-related diseases. While previous studies performed anatomical, physiological and morphological comparisons between ATs across different species, little is currently understood at the molecular phenotypic levels. Here, we characterized transcriptional and lipidomic profiles of available subcutaneous and visceral ATs samples across 15 vertebrate species, spanning more than 300 million years of evolution, including placental mammals, birds and reptiles. We provide detailed descriptions of the datasets produced in this study and report gene expression and lipid profiles across samples. These resources should provide researchers could insights into the molecular and evolutionary mechanisms underlying functional differences between ATs in vertebrate species.

Project description:The endostyle is an endodermal organ unique to non-vertebrate chordates except for lamprey larvae, where it serves as forerunner to the adult thyroid. Here, we examine if the acquisition of neural crest in the vertebrate lineage played a role in the elaboration of the endostyle. CM-DiI lineage tracing reveals a neural crest contribution to the endostyle, and CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis of key neural crest genes causes endostyle defects including formation of a single rather than bilobed structure. RNA-sequencing reveals gene profiles characteristic of embryonic neural crest cells and Schwann cell precursors in the developing endostyle. Contrasting with the prevailing view that the endostyle is an endoderm-derived organ, we propose that the acquisition of the neural crest played a critical step in promoting thyroid evolution from chordate endostyle.

Project description:Polyploidy or whole genome duplication (WGD) is a major event that drastically reshapes genome architecture and is often assumed to be causally associated with organismal innovations and radiations. The 2R Hypothesis suggests that two WGD events (1R and 2R) occurred during early vertebrate evolution. However, the timing of the 2R event relative to the divergence of gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates) and cyclostomes (jawless hagfishes and lampreys) is unresolved and whether these WGD events underlie vertebrate phenotypic diversification remains elusive. Here we present the genome of the inshore hagfish, Eptatretus burgeri. Through comparative analysis with lamprey and gnathostome genomes, we reconstruct the early events in cyclostome genome evolution, leveraging insights into the ancestral vertebrate genome. Genome-wide synteny and phylogenetic analyses support a scenario in which 1R occurred in the vertebrate stem-lineage during the early Cambrian, and the 2R event occurred in the gnathostome stem-lineage, maximally in the late Cambrian-earliest Ordovician, after its divergence from cyclostomes. We find that the genome of stem-cyclostomes experienced at least an additional, independent genome triplication. Functional genomic and morphospace analyses demonstrate that WGD events generally contribute to developmental evolution with similar changes in the regulatory genome of both vertebrate groups. However, appreciable morphological diversification occurred only after the 2R event, questioning the general expectation that WGDs lead to leaps of bodyplan complexity.

Project description:The evolution of gene expression programs underlying the development of vertebrates remains poorly characterized. Here, we present a comprehensive proteome atlas of the model chordate Ciona, covering eight developmental stages and ~7k translated genes, accompanied by a multi-omics analysis of co-evolution with the vertebrate Xenopus. Quantitative proteome comparisons argue against the widely held hourglass model, based solely on transcriptomic profiles, whereby peak conservation is observed during mid-developmental stages. Our analysis reveals maximal divergence at these stages, particularly gastrulation and neurulation. Together, our work provides a valuable resource for evaluating conservation and divergence of multi-omics profiles underlying the diversification of vertebrates.
