Project description:Plants function as an integrated system of interconnected organs, with shoots and roots mutually influencing each other. Brassinosteroid (BR) signaling is essential for whole-plant growth, yet the relative importance of shoot versus root BR function in shaping root system architecture (RSA) remains unclear. Here, we directly tackle this question using micro-grafts between wild-type and BR-null mutants in both Arabidopsis and tomato, assisted by phenotyping, transcriptomics, metabolic profiling, transmission electron microscopy, and modeling approaches. These analyses demonstrate that shoot BR, by determining root carbon availability, allows for a full rescue of mutant root biomass, while loss of shoot BR attenuates root growth. In parallel, root BR dictates the spatial distribution of carbon along the root, through local regulation of growth anisotropy and cell wall thickness, shaping root morphology. A newly developed “grow and branch” simulation model demonstrates that these shoot- and root-derived BR effects are sufficient to explain and predict root growth dynamics and branching phenotype in wild-type, BR-deficient mutants, and micro-graft combinations. Our interdisciplinary approach, applied to two plant species and integrating shoot and root hormonal functions, provides a new understanding of how RSA is modulated at various scales.

Project description:How organ size and form are controlled during development is a major question of biology. Blood vessels have been shown to be essential for early development of the liver and pancreas, and are fundamental to normal and pathological tissue growth. Here we report that non-nutritional signals from blood vessels surprisingly act to restrain pancreas growth. Elimination of endothelial cells increases the size of embryonic pancreatic buds. Conversely, VEGF-induced hypervascularization decreases pancreas size. The growth phenotype results from vascular restriction of pancreatic tip cell formation, lateral branching and differentiation of the pancreatic epithelium into endocrine and acinar cells. The effects are seen both in vivo and ex vivo, indicating a perfusion-independent mechanism. Thus the vasculature controls pancreas morphogenesis and growth by reducing branching and differentiation of primitive epithelial cells.

Project description:Protein synthesis is costly and the proteome size is constrained. Using a genome-scale computational model of proteome allocation together with absolute proteomics data sets from many growth environments, we determine how these fundamental limitations constrain growth and fitness in Escherichia coli. First, we show that the observed variation in growth rates across environments is largely determined by the expression of protein not utilized for growth in a given environment. We then elucidate the overall transcriptional regulatory logic that underlies the expression of unused protein. We systematically classify the unused proteome into segments devoted to environmental readiness and stress resistance functions. While expression of these proteome segments incurs a fitness cost of decreased growth in a fixed environment, they provide fitness benefits in a changing environment. Thus, the systems biology of the prokaryotic proteome can be quantitatively understood based on resource allocation to growth, environmental readiness, and stress resistance functions.

Project description:Bacteria regulate their cellular resource allocation to enable their fast growth-adaptation to a variety of environmental niches. We studied the ribosomal allocation, growth and expression profile of two sets of fast-growing mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655. Mutants with 3 copies of the stronger ribosomal RNA operons grew faster than the wild-type strain in minimal media and show similar phenotype to previously studied rpoB mutants. All of them displayed increased ribosomal content, a longer diauxic shift and a reduced activity of the aceBAK operon, indicative of repressed gluconeogenic pathways. Transcriptomic profiles of fast-growing mutants showed common downregulation of hedging functions and upregulated growth functions. Proteome allocation estimations showed an increase in the growth-related proteome for fast-growing strains, but not an increased cellular budget for recombinant protein production. These results show that two different regulatory perturbations (rRNA promoters or rpoB mutations) increasing ribosomal allocation optimize the proteome for growth with a concomitant fitness cost.

For transcriptome analysis, RNA was isolated using QIAGEN RNeasy micro Kit from pancreatic buds of Pdx1-tTA (n=3) and littermate Pdx1-tTA; TET-VEGF (n=3) e12.5 embryos, or from e12.5 wild type pancreatic buds explanted and treated with VEGFR2i (n=5) or vehicle (n=5) for 2 days. Pooled samples were hybridized to Affymetrix mouse gene 1.0 st arrays. The arrays were RMA normalized using Partek Genomic Suite 6.5. Differentially regulated genes were selected based on p-values and ratios using t-test.

Project description:Cells usually respond to changing growth conditions with a change in the specific growth rate (μ) and adjustment of their proteome to adapt and maintain metabolic efficiency. Description of the principles behind proteome resource allocation is thus important for understanding metabolic regulation in responce to changing specific growth rate. We analysed the allocation dynamics of Escherichia coli proteome resources into different metabolic processes in response to changing μ. E. coli was grown on minimal and defined rich media in steady state continuous cultures at different μ and characterised by absolute quantitative LC-MS/MS based proteomics. We detected slowly growing cells investing more proteome resources in energy generation and carbohydrate transport and metabolism whereas for achieving faster growth cells needed to devote most resources to translation and processes closely related to the protein synthesis pipeline. Furthermore, down-regulation of energy generation and carbohydrate metabolism proteins with faster growth displayed very similar expression dynamics with the global transcriptional regulator CRP (cyclic AMP receptor protein), pointing to a dominant protein resource allocating role for this protein. Our data also suggest that acetate overflow may be the result of global proteome resource optimisation as cells saved proteome resources by switching from fully respiratory to respiro-fermentative growth. The presented results give a quantitative overview how E. coli adjusts its proteome to achieve faster growthin response to perturbations in μ. Quantitative understanding of proteome resource allocation could contribute to the design of more efficient cell factories through proteome optimisation towards proteins related to target molecule synthesis.

Project description:The effects of brassinosteroid signaling on shoot and root development have been characterized in great detail but did not identify a simple consistent positive or negative impact on a basic cellular parameter. Here we combined digital 3D single-cell shape analysis and single-cell mRNA sequencing to characterize root meristems and mature root segments of brassinosteroid-blind mutants and wildtype. These data demonstrate that brassinosteroid signaling neither affects cell volume nor cell proliferation capacity. Instead, brassinosteroid signaling is essential for the precise orientation of cell division planes and the extent and timing of anisotropic cell expansion. Moreover, we found that the cell-aligning effects of brassinosteroid signaling can propagate to normalize the anatomy of both adjacent and distant brassinosteroid-blind cells through non-cell-autonomous functions, which are sufficient to restore growth vigor. Finally, single-cell transcriptome data discern directly brassinosteroid-responsive genes from genes that can react non-cell-autonomously and highlight arabinogalactans as sentinels of brassinosteroid-dependent anisotropic cell expansion.

Project description:To effectively manage resources, regulatory cross-talk between biological processes within an organism is essential. An emerging area in plant research focuses on antagonism between regulatory systems controlling growth/development and those governing immunity. Such crosstalk represents a point of vulnerability for pathogens to exploit. Here we show that the notorious potato blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans promotes a growth and development pathway in order to antagonise plant immunity. AVR2, an effector protein secreted by P. infestans, has been shown to interact with potato BSL1, a putative phosphatase implicated in brassinosteroid hormone signalling. Plants expressing AVR2 exhibit transcriptional and phenotypic overlaps with an over-active brassinosteroid signalling pathway, and have compromised immunity. The activity of AVR2 leads to up-regulation of a functional orthologue of AtHBI1, known to facilitate cross-talk between the brassinosteroid pathway and immune signalling in Arabidopsis. Transient expression of potato HBI1-like compromises immunity and enhances leaf colonisation by P. infestans. Knowledge of how pathogens manipulate regulatory cross-talk governing resource allocation in plants will inform crop breeding efforts of the future; helping to maximise both yield and resistance to ensure food security as pressure on our agricultural systems increases.

Project description:Cellular resources are limited and their relative allocation to gene expression programmes determines physiological states and global properties such as the growth rate. Quantitative studies using various growth conditions have singled out growth rate as a major physiological variable explaining relative protein abundances. Here, we used the simple eukaryote Schizosaccharomyces pombe to determine the importance of growth rate in explaining relative changes in protein and mRNA levels during growth on a series of non-limiting nitrogen sources. Although half of fission yeast genes were significantly correlated with the growth rate, this came alongside widespread nutrient-specific regulation. Proteome and transcriptome often showed coordinated regulation but with notable exceptions, such as metabolic enzymes. Genes positively correlated with growth rate participated in every level of protein production with the notable exception of RNA polymerase II, whereas those negatively correlated mainly belonged to the environmental stress response programme. Critically, metabolic enzymes, which represent ~55-70% of the proteome by mass, showed mainly condition-specific regulation. Specifically, many enzymes involved in glycolysis and NAD-dependent metabolism as well as the fermentative and respiratory pathways were condition-dependent and not consistently correlated with growth. In summary, we provide a rich account of resource allocation to gene expression in a simple eukaryote, advancing our basic understanding of the interplay between growth-rate dependent and nutrient-specific gene expression.
