Project description:Fungal group III histidine kinases are the molecular targets of some classes of fungicides. In contrast to the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the fungal pathogen Candida albicans possesses a group III histidine kinase, CaNik1p, also called Cos1p. To investigate the function of CaNIK1, the gene was expressed in S. cerevisiae. The transformants became susceptible to antifungal compounds to which the wild-type strain is resistant. The susceptibility was related to the activation of the MAP kinase Hog1p of the osmotic stress response pathway. Gene expression analysis revealed a strong overlap of the responses to osmotic stress and to fludioxonil at early time points. While the response to fludioxonil persisted, the response to osmotic stress was diminished with time. S. cerevisiae expressing Candida albicans Nik1p were treated with 10 µg/ml fludioxonil. As a comparison, another culture of S. cerevisiae expressing Candida albicans Nik1p was treated with 1 M sorbitol to induce osmotic stress response. One culture remained untreated as a control. From all cultures, samples were taken after a duration of 15, 30 and 60 min.

Project description:We present microbial Drop-seq or mDrop-seq, a high-throughput scRNA-seq technique that is used on two yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a popular model organism and Candida albicans, a common opportunistic pathogen. We benchmarked mDrop-seq for sensitivity and specificity and used it to profile 35,109 S. cerevisiae cells to detect variation in mRNA levels between them. As a proof of concept, we quantified expression differences in heat-shocked S. cerevisiae using mDrop-seq. We detected differential activation of stress response genes within a seemingly homogenous population of S. cerevisiae under heat-shock. We also applied mDrop-seq to C. albicans cells, a polymorphic and clinically relevant yeast species with thicker cell wall compared to S. cerevisiae. Single cell transcriptomes in 39,705 C. albicans cells was characterized using mDrop-seq under different conditions, including exposure to fluconazole, a common anti-fungal drug.

Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent microorganism for industrial succinic acid production, but high succinic acid concentration will inhibit the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae then reduce the production of succinic acid. Through analysis the transcriptomic data of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with different genetic backgrounds under different succinic acid stress, we hope to find the response mechanism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to succinic acid.

Project description:6-Nonadecynoic acid (6-NDA), a plant-derived acetylenic acid, exhibits strong inhibitory activity against the human fungal pathogens Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Trichophyton mentagrophytes. In the present study, transcriptional profiling coupled with mutant and biochemical analyses were conducted using the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae to investigate the mechanism of action of this compound. 6-NDA elicited a transcriptome response indicative of fatty acid stress, altering the expression of genes known to be affected when yeast cells are grown in the presence of oleate. Mutants of S. cerevisiae lacking transcription factors that regulate fatty acid beta-oxidation showed increased sensitivity to 6-NDA. Fatty acid profile analysis indicated that 6-NDA inhibited the formation of fatty acids longer than 14 carbons in length. In addition, the growth inhibitory effect of 6-NDA was rescued in the presence of exogenously supplied oleate. To investigate the response of a pathogenic fungal species to 6-NDA, transcriptional profiling and biochemical analyses were also conducted in C. albicans. The transcriptional response and fatty acid profile of C. albicans were comparable to those obtained in S. cerevisiae, and the rescue of growth inhibition with exogenous oleate was also observed in C. albicans. In addition, 6-NDA enhanced the potency of the antifungal drug fluconazole in a fluconazole-resistant clinical isolate of C. albicans. Collectively, our results indicate that the antifungal activity of 6-NDA is mediated by a disruption in fatty acid homeostasis, and that this compound has potential utility in combination therapy in the treatment of drug-resistant fungal infections.
