Ribosome profiling of Cryptococcus neoformans H99

Project description:We measured protein translation (by ribosome profiling) and RNA levels (by polyA-enriched RNA-seq) in Cryptococcus neoformans strain H99 and Cryptococcus neoformans strain JEC21. This is the first transcriptome-wide map of translation in this species complex.

Transcriptomic response of Cryptococcus neoformans to ecologically relevant nitrogen concentrations

Project description:We examine the transcriptomic response of Cryptococcus neoformans to two different ecologically relevant nitrogen concentrations. Our data revealed that low nitrogen conditions modulate the expression of numerous virulence genes in C. neoformans. Among these were, CTR4 and CGP1, which showed highly significant modulation under low nitrogen conditions. Furthermore, data analysis revealed the upregulation of antifungal tolerance-related genes in low nitrogen conditions, including genes involved in ergosterol biosynthetic processes and cell wall integrity. Overall, our findings provide insight into the survival of C. neoformans in nitrogen-poor ecological niches and suggest that pre-adaptation to these conditions may influence the pathobiology of this yeast.

The protein phosphatase 2C domain contributes to the pathobiological function of adenylyl cyclase in Cryptococcus neoformans

Project description:Adenylyl cyclase (AC) is the central regulator of cAMP signalling in fungal pathogens, yet fungal ACs uniquely contain a protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) domain whose function remains unclear. Here, we characterise the PP2C domain of the AC Cac1 in the human pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. Structural and biochemical analyses show that Cac1-PP2C adopts a non-canonical scaffold but functions as a Ser/Thr-specific metalloenzyme. Deletion of the PP2C or AC catalytic (ACC) domain demonstrated that PP2C is required for full Cac1 activity, influencing melanin and capsule synthesis, sexual differentiation, titan cell formation, and cell wall integrity. Notably, the PP2C-null mutant induced Th2-biased immunity and extensive pulmonary damage yet failed to cause mortality in mice. Integrated transcriptomic and phosphoproteomic analyses further revealed shared and domain-specific signalling outputs mediated by PP2C and ACC. This study provides the first comprehensive characterisation of a fungal AC-linked PP2C domain and defines its pivotal role in C. neoformans pathobiology

The transcription factor Pdr802 regulates Titan cell production and Cryptococcus neoformans pathogenicity

Project description:We report on our study the role of C. neoformans transcription factor Pdr802, whose expression is highly induced under host-like conditions in vitro and is critical for C. neoformans dissemination and virulence in a mouse model of infection. We found that direct targets of Pdr802 include the calcineurin targets Had1 and Pmc1, which are important for C. neoformans virulence, the transcription factor Bzp4, which promotes cryptococcal melanization and capsule thickness, and 35 transmembrane transporters. Notably, a strain engineered to lack Pdr802 showed a dramatically increased population of Titan cells. Since Titan cells are not phagocyted and do not disseminate via the Trojan horse mechanism or via penetration of biological barriers, this likely explains the reduced dissemination of pdr802 cells to the central nervous system and consequently reduced pathogenicity of this strain. The role of Pdr802 as a negative regulator of titanisation is thus critical for cryptococcal virulence.

Gene expression profiling in the puf4∆ (midlog), and gcn4∆ (midlog and oxidative stress) mutants of Cryptococcus neoformans.

Project description:This study aimed to investigate transcriptomic changes in Cryptococcus neoformans mutants. We report transcriptome wide changes in the puf4∆ under basal growth conditions (30˚C, midlog, YPD). We report transcriptome remodeling following hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment in wildtype (H99) and gcn4∆ cells.

Effect of Replicative Aging on Cryptococcus neoformans

Project description:Cryptococcus neoformans (Cn) is an opportunistic fungal microorganism that causes life-threatening meningoencephalitis. During the infection, the microbial population is heterogeneously composed of cells with varying generational ages, with older cells accumulating during chronic infections. This is attributed to their enhanced resistance to phagocytic killing and tolerance of antifungals like fluconazole (FLC). Using RNA-seq, we investigated how transcriptomic changes in different aspects of metabolism contribute to age-associated FLC tolerance in Cn.
