Project description:Maternal obesity is known to cause systemic lipid dysregulation, yet its effect on lipid reprogramming during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) remains unknown. Here we show that obesity disrupts very-long-chain fatty acid (VLCFAs) storage in oocytes and downregulates PEX13, impairing peroxisomal protein import in 2-cell embryos. Normally, peroxisomal β-oxidation converts oocyte-stored VLCFAs into medium- and long-chain fatty acids, which fuel triglyceride synthesis and drive phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) methylation to phosphatidylcholine (PC). This metabolic flux consumes methyl donors to facilitate H3K4me3 erasure and zygotic genome activation (ZGA). In obese mice, VLCFA deficiency and PEX13 dysfunction lead to metabolic-epigenetic uncoupling, depleting lipid droplets and sustaining H3K4me3, thereby suppressing ZGA and blastocyst development. Importantly, supplying long-chain fatty acids or overexpressing PEMT restores the phospholipid-methyl cycle, rescuing epigenetic reprogramming and development. Our findings establish peroxisomal β-oxidation as a metabolic-epigenetic nexus essential for MZT and reveal a phospholipid-methyl coupling mechanism underlying obesity-associated embry development, offering novel therapeutic entry points to improve fertility in metabolic disorders.

Project description:S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is the methyl donor for biological methylation modifications that regulate protein and nucleic acid functions. Here we show that methylation of a phospholipid, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), is the major consumer of SAM in budding yeast. The induction of phospholipid biosynthetic genes is accompanied by induction of the enzyme that hydrolyzes S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), a product and inhibitor of methyltransferases. Beyond its function for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC), the methylation of PE facilitates the turnover of SAM for the synthesis of cysteine and glutathione. Strikingly, cells that lack PE methylation accumulate SAM, which leads to hypermethylation of histones and the major phosphatase PP2A, dependency on cysteine, and sensitivity to oxidative stress. Without PE methylation, particular sites on histones then become methyl sinks to enable the turnover of SAM. These findings reveal an unforeseen metabolic function for phospholipid and histone methylation intrinsic to the life of a cell.

Project description:Distinct retrograde signaling pathways have been identified for several cellular organelles. These pathways are important to maintain the function of these organelles in response to organelle-specific stress. Using Caenorhabditis elegans, we show for the first time that such a retrograde signaling also exists for peroxisomes. Analysis of the C. elegans transcriptome revealed that peroxisomal import stress caused by the knock-down of the peroxisomal matrix protein import receptor prx-5/PEX5 induces the compensatory up-regulation of genes involved in defense response and lipid metabolic processes, especially peroxisomal beta oxidation. We, therefore, propose that the peroxisomal retrograde signaling participates in the maintenance of peroxisomal function in response to peroxisomal import stress.

Project description:The aim is to study the function of peroxisomal NAD-malate dehydrogenase in fatty acid beta-oxidation, glyoxylate cycle and photorespiration. Both peroxisomal MDH genes (At2g22780 and At5g09660) have been knocked out with T-DNA insertions and a double mutant made. Double mutant seedlings are blocked in beta-oxidation - they are 2,4DB resistant and beta-oxidation genes are repressed. They carry out glyoxylate cycle as normal. Plants grow well in soil and produce seed. Microarray analysis will tell us the extent of changes in gene expression in the mutant. For microarray analysis seeds are stratified at 4 C on agar medium with 1/2 strength M&S salts and 1% sucrose for 2 days, then seedlings grown for 2 days at 20 C in the light (100 umol/m2/s). Triplicate samples will be grown for mutant and wild type (col-0) and RNA isolated from each.

Project description:Study of the effect of cadmium on KO and overexpressor mutants of glycolate oxidase-GOX2, which is one of the main sources of H202 from peroxisomes. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as secondary messengers that can be sensed by specific redox sensitive proteins responsible for the activation of signal transduction culminating in altered gene expression. ROS, which are involved in different activities, elicit a wide range of protein modifications, which might elicit different gene expressions. The subcellular site, in which modifications in ROS/oxidation state occur, can also act as a specific cellular redox network signal. The chemical identity of ROS and their subcellular origin actually is a specific imprint on the transcriptome response. In recent years, a number of transcriptomic studies related to altered ROS metabolism in plant peroxisomes have been carried out. In this study, we made a meta-analysis of these transcriptomic findings to identify common transcriptional footprints for plant peroxisomal-dependent signaling at early and later time points. These footprints highlight the regulation of various metabolic pathways and gene families, which are also found in plant responses to several abiotic stresses. Major peroxisomal-dependent genes are associated with protein and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protection at later stages of stress while, at earlier stages, these genes are related to hormone biosynthesis and signaling regulation. Further, in silico analyses allowed us to assign human orthologs to some of the peroxisomal-dependent genes, which are mainly associated with different cancer types pathologies. Peroxisomal footprints provide a valuable resource for assessing and supporting key peroxisomal functions in cellular metabolism under control and stress conditions across species.
