Project description:Aneuploidy, in which cells carry an abnormal chromosome count, is detrimental during development yet common in human cancers; why cells differ in tolerance remains unclear. We mapped the genetic basis of aneuploidy tolerance in wild Saccharomyces cerevisiae versus the sensitive lab strain to Ssd1, an RNA-binding protein involved in translation whose loss recapitulates aneuploidy signatures in laboratory yeast. We find Ssd1 localizes to mitochondria, influences localization of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial mRNAs and/or abundance of the encoded proteins, influences mitochondrial function, and minimizes protein aggregates upon chromosome amplification. Recapitulating ssd1D defects with combinatorial drug treatment selectively targets wild-type aneuploids in multiple strains, suggesting therapeutic approaches. Our work adds to elegant studies done in the sensitized laboratory strain to present a mechanistic understanding of aneuploidy tolerance in eukaryotes.

Project description:Aneuploidy is highly detrimental during development yet common in cancers and pathogenic fungi - what gives rise to differences in aneuploidy tolerance remains unclear. We previously showed that wild isolates of Saccharomyces cerevisiae tolerate chromosome amplification while laboratory strains used as a model for aneuploid syndromes do not. Here, we mapped the genetic basis to Ssd1, an RNA-binding translational regulator that is functional in wild aneuploids but defective in laboratory strain W303. Loss of SSD1 recapitulates myriad aneuploidy signatures previously taken as eukaryotic responses. We show that aneuploidy tolerance is enabled via a role for Ssd1 in mitochondrial physiology, including binding and regulating nuclear-encoded mitochondrial mRNAs, coupled with a role in mitigating proteostasis stress. Recapitulating ssd1Δ defects with combinatorial drug treatment selectively blocked proliferation of wild-type aneuploids compared to euploids. Our work adds to elegant studies in the sensitized laboratory strain to present a mechanistic understanding of eukaryotic aneuploidy tolerance.

Project description:Aneuploidy is a condition frequently found in tumor cells but how it affects cellular physiology is not known. We have characterized one aspect of aneuploidy, the gain of extra chromosomes. We created a collection of haploid yeast strains that each bear an extra copy of one or more of almost all of the yeast chromosomes. Their characterization revealed that aneuploid strains share a number of phenotypes, including defects in cell cycle progression, increased glucose uptake and increased sensitivity to conditions interfering with protein synthesis and protein folding. These phenotypes were observed only in strains carrying additional yeast genes indicating that they reflect the consequences of additional transcription and translation as well as the resulting imbalances in cellular protein composition. We conclude that aneuploidy causes not only a proliferative disadvantage but also a set of phenotypes that is independent of the identity of the individual extra chromosomes.

Project description:Aneuploidy results in decreased cellular fitness in many different species and model systems. However, aneuploidy is commonly found in cancer cells and often correlates with aggressive growth and poor prognosis, suggesting that the impact of aneuploidy on cellular fitness is context dependent. The BRG1 (SMARCA4) subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex is a tumour suppressor that is frequently lost in cancer cells. Here, we used a chromosomally stable cell line to test the effect of BRG1 loss on the evolution of aneuploidy. We find that BRG1 deletion leads to an initial loss of fitness in this cell line that improves over time. The improved fitness correlates with a gain of extra copies of chromosome 18. Notably, changes in pathways that are known to promote tolerance to aneuploidy are evident immediately upon loss of BRG1, providing an environment where karyotype changes associated with a fitness advantage can be explored. At least in some genetic backgrounds, therefore, loss of the SWI/SNF complex can contribute to tumourigenesis through tolerance of aneuploidy.

Project description:Accessing the natural genetic diversity of species unveils hidden genetic traits, clarifies gene functions, and allows assessment of the generalizability of laboratory findings. One notable discovery made in Saccharomyces cerevisiae natural isolates is frequent (~20%) aneuploidy – an imbalance in chromosome copy numbers – that appears to contradict the significant fitness costs and transient nature reported for lab-engineered aneuploids. Here, we generated a proteomic resource and merged it with genomic and transcriptomic data for 796 euploid and aneuploid natural isolates. We found that natural and lab-generated aneuploids differ specifically at the proteome. In lab-generated aneuploids, some proteins, especially protein complex subunits, show reduced expression, yet the overall protein levels correspond to the aneuploid gene dosage. By contrast, in natural isolates, more than 70% of proteins encoded on aneuploid chromosomes are dosage-compensated, with average protein levels being shifted towards the euploid state chromosome-wide. At the molecular level, we detect an induction of structural components of the proteasome, increased levels of ubiquitination, and reveal an interdependency of protein turnover rates and attenuation. Our study thus highlights the role of protein turnover in mediating aneuploidy tolerance, and demonstrates the utility of exploiting the natural diversity of species to reach generalizable molecular insights into complex biological processes. This resource provides the SILAC dataset from this work.

Project description:Aneuploidy causes severe developmental defects and is a near universal feature of tumor cells. Despite its profound effects, the cellular processes affected by aneuploidy are not well characterized. Here, we examined the consequences of aneuploidy on the proteome of aneuploid budding yeast strains. We show that although protein levels largely scale with gene copy number, subunits of multi-protein complexes are notable exceptions. Posttranslational mechanisms attenuate their expression when their encoding genes are in excess. Our proteomic analyses further revealed a novel aneuploidy-associated protein expression signature characteristic of altered metabolism and redox homeostasis. Indeed aneuploid cells harbor increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Interestingly, increased protein turnover attenuates ROS levels and this novel aneuploidy-associated signature and improves the fitness of most aneuploid strains. Our results show that aneuploidy causes alterations in metabolism and redox homeostasis. Cells respond to these alterations through both transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms.

Keywords: CGH, gene expression This series of microarrays compares yeast strains carrying extra chromosomes to wt yeast with normal chromosome content. Both DNA/CGH and gene expression comparisons were done, as noted. In some experiments, biological replicates were performed as noted. Reference wt nucleic acid was most commonly labeled with Cy3. Experiments labeled as "swap" have the wt reference nucleic acid labeled with Cy5, and ratio values for these experiments are reported as Cy3/Cy5.

Project description:Industrial wine yeast strains possess specific abilities to ferment under stressing conditions and give a suitable aromatic outcome. Although the fermentations properties of Saccharomyces cervisiae wine yeasts are well documented little is known on the genetic basis underlying the fermentation traits. Besides, although strain differences in gene expression has been reported, their relationships with gene expression variations and fermentation phenotypic variations is unknown. To both identify the genetic basis of fermentation traits and get insight on their relationships with gene expression variations, we combined fermentation traits QTL mapping and expression profiling in a segregating population from a cross between a wine yeast derivative and a laboratory strain.

Project description:Aneuploidy causes a proliferative disadvantage in all normal cells analyzed to date, yet this condition is associated with a disease characterized by unabated proliferative potential, cancer. The mechanisms that allow cancer cells to tolerate the adverse effects of aneuploidy are not known. To probe this question, we identified aneuploid yeast strains with improved proliferative abilities. Their molecular characterization revealed strain-specific genetic alterations as well as mutations shared between different aneuploid strains. Among the latter, a loss-of-function mutation in the gene encoding the deubiquitinating enzyme Ubp6 improves growth rates in four different aneuploid yeast strains by attenuating the changes in intracellular protein composition caused by aneuploidy. Our results demonstrate the existence of aneuploidy-tolerating mutations that improve the fitness of multiple different aneuploidies and highlight the importance of ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation in suppressing the adverse effects of aneuploidy.

Project description:We discovered that wild yeast strains can tolerate extra chromosomes, a condition known as aneuploidy, whereas well-studied laboratory strains cannot. Understanding why some cells can tolerate aneuploidy and others cannot could have far-reaching impact, as for example, 85% of solid tumors are aneuploidy and often benefit from extra chromosomes, and thus identifying mechanisms of aneuploidy sensitization could have therapeutic applications.
