Locke2005 - Circadian Clock

ABSTRACT: Locke2005 - Circadian Clock SBML model of the interlocked feedback loop network The model describes the circuit depicted in Fig. 4 and reproduces the simulations in Figure 5A and 5B. It provides initial conditions, parameter values and rules for the production rates of the following species: LHY mRNA (cLm), cytoplasmic LHY (cLc), nuclear LHY (cLn), TOC1 mRNA (cTm), cytoplasmic TOC1 (cTc), nuclear TOC1 (cTn),X mRNA (cXm), cytoplasmic X (cXc), nuclear X (cXn), Y mRNA (cYm), cytoplasmic Y (cYc), nuclear Y (cYn), nuclear P (cPn). This model was successfully tested on MathSBML and SBML ODE Solver. Fig 5B is not in the right phase. However, the data is correct relative to the light/dark bars at the top of the figure. This model is described in the article: Extension of a genetic network model by iterative experimentation and mathematical analysis.

Molecular genetic studies in the higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana have revealed a complex clock network. The first part of the network to be identified, a transcriptional feedback loop comprising TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1 (TOC1), LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (LHY) and CIRCADIAN CLOCK ASSOCIATED 1 (CCA1), fails to account for significant experimental data. We develop an extended model that is based upon a wider range of data and accurately predicts additional experimental results. The model comprises interlocking feedback loops comparable to those identified experimentally in other circadian systems. We propose that each loop receives input signals from light, and that each loop includes a hypothetical component that had not been explicitly identified. Analysis of the model predicted the properties of these components, including an acute light induction at dawn that is rapidly repressed by LHY and CCA1. We found this unexpected regulation in RNA levels of the evening-expressed gene GIGANTEA (GI), supporting our proposed network and making GI a strong candidate for this component.

Project description:This a model from the article: Experimental validation of a predicted feedback loop in the multi-oscillator clock of Arabidopsis thaliana. Locke JC, Kozma-Bognár L, Gould PD, Fehér B, Kevei E, Nagy F, Turner MS, Hall A, Millar AJ Mol. Syst. Biol.2006;Volume:2;Page:59 17102804, Abstract: Our computational model of the circadian clock comprised the feedback loop between LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (LHY), CIRCADIAN CLOCK ASSOCIATED 1 (CCA1) and TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1 (TOC1), and a predicted, interlocking feedback loop involving TOC1 and a hypothetical component Y. Experiments based on model predictions suggested GIGANTEA (GI) as a candidate for Y. We now extend the model to include a recently demonstrated feedback loop between the TOC1 homologues PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATOR 7 (PRR7), PRR9 and LHY and CCA1. This three-loop network explains the rhythmic phenotype of toc1 mutant alleles. Model predictions fit closely to new data on the gi;lhy;cca1 mutant, which confirm that GI is a major contributor to Y function. Analysis of the three-loop network suggests that the plant clock consists of morning and evening oscillators, coupled intracellularly, which may be analogous to coupled, morning and evening clock cells in Drosophila and the mouse. The model describes a three loops model of the Arabidopsis circadian clock. It provides initial conditions, parameter values and reactions for the production rates of the following species: LHY mRNA (cLm), cytoplasmic LHY (cLc), nuclear LHY (cLn), TOC1 mRNA (cTm), cytoplasmic TOC1 (cTc), nuclear TOC1 (cTn), X mRNA (cXm), cytoplasmic X (cXc), nuclear X (cXn), Y mRNA (cYm), cytoplasmic Y (cYc), nuclear Y (cYn), nuclear P (cPn), APRR7/9 mRNA, cytoplasmic APRR7/9, and nuclear APRR7/9. The paper describes the behaviour of the model in constant light (LL) and day-night cycle (LD). However, the current model only contains the LL cycle. Some parameter values should be changed from the wild-type (WT) ones in order to simulate the effect of mutations. These changes are listed in the notes of relevant parameters.

Project description:The first described feedback loop of the Arabidopsis circadian clock is based on reciprocal regulation between TOC1 and CCA1/LHY. CCA1 and LHY are MYB transcription factors that bind directly to the TOC1 promoter to negatively regulate its expression. Conversely, the activity of TOC1 has remained less well characterized. Genetic data supports that TOC1 is necessary for the reactivation of CCA1/LHY, but there is little description of its biochemical function. Here we show that TOC1 occupies specific genomic regions in the CCA1 and LHY promoters. Purified TOC1 binds directly to DNA through its CCT domain, which is similar to known DNA binding domains. Chemical induction and transient overexpression of TOC1 in Arabidopsis seedlings cause repression of CCA1/LHY expression demonstrating that TOC1 can repress direct targets, and mutation or deletion of the CCT domain prevents this repression showing that DNA binding is necessary for TOC1 action. Furthermore, we use the Gal4/UAS system in Arabidopsis to show that TOC1 acts as a general transcriptional repressor, and that repression activity is in the Pseudoreceiver (PR) domain of the protein. To identify the genes regulated by TOC1 on a genomic scale, we couple TOC1 chemical induction with microarray analysis and identify new potential TOC1 targets and output pathways. Together these results define the biochemical action of the core clock protein TOC1 and refine our perspective on how plant clocks function. Keywords: Expression profiling by array wild type (Col-0) and ALC::TOC1 were sown on Murashige-Skoog with 0.8% agar, stratified for 48 hours and grown in12:12 light:dark (LD) for 12 days and either left in LD or transferred to constant light (LL) and then grown for one more day before the start of the experiment. Tissue was submerged in Murashige-Skoog media supplemented with 2.5% ethanol or no ethanol (mock) and with 20mM MG132 for 3 hours and harvested at ZT1. Three replicates each of the seedlings were collected and frozen in liquid nitrogen.

Project description:This model is from the article: Multiple light inputs to a simple clock circuit allow complex biological rhythms Troein C, Corellou F, Dixon LE, van Ooijen G, O'Neill JS, Bouget FY, Millar AJ. Plant J.2011 Apr;66(2):375-85. 21219507, Abstract: Circadian clocks are biological timekeepers that allow living cells to time their activity in anticipation of predictable environmental changes. Detailed understanding of the circadian network of higher plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana, is hampered by the high number of partially redundant genes. However, the picoeukaryotic alga Ostreococcus tauri, which was recently shown to possess a small number of non-redundant clock genes, presents an attractive alternative target for detailed modelling of circadian clocks in the green lineage. Based on extensive time-series data from in vivo reporter gene assays, we developed a model of the Ostreococcus clock as a feedback loop between the genes TOC1 and CCA1. The model reproduces the dynamics of the transcriptional and translational reporters over a range of photoperiods. Surprisingly, the model is also able to predict the transient behaviour of the clock when the light conditions are altered. Despite the apparent simplicity of the clock circuit, it displays considerable complexity in its response to changing light conditions. Systematic screening of the effects of altered day length revealed a complex relationship between phase and photoperiod, which is also captured by the model. The complex light response is shown to stem from circadian gating of light-dependent mechanisms. This study provides insights into the contributions of light inputs to the Ostreococcus clock. The model suggests that a high number of light-dependent reactions are important for flexible timing in a circadian clock with only one feedback loop. Note: Two-gene model of the Ostreococcus circadian clock This is a model of the circadian clock of Ostreococcus tauri, with a negative feedback loop between TOC1 and CCA1 (a.k.a. LHY) and multiple light inputs. It was used and described in Troein et al., Plant Journal (2011). The model incorporates luciferase reporters, and in this SBML model the four different versions of the model for transcriptional and translational reporter lines (pTOC1::LUC, pCCA1::LUC, TOC1-LUC and CCA1-LUC) are all accessible by setting one of the rep_X parameters to 1 and the others to 0. You can also set all four to 0 to only simulate the non-reporter core of the system. Input to the system should be provided by modifying the "light" function. An implementation of LD 12:12 is provided as an example, but the model was also used with more complicated light regimes that vary between data sets and are not convenient to express directly in SBML. The functions "ox_cca1" and "ox_toc1" can be altered to add overexpression of CCA1 and TOC1. Setting either to x gives additional, constitutive transcription at x times the maximal (and typically not realizable) transcription rate of the native gene. The overexpression mutant fits in Figure 7 of Troein et al. (2011) used ox_cca1 = 0.115 and oc_toc1 = 0.0584, respectively. The functions "copies_toc1" and "copies_cca1" are normally 1 but can be lowered to simulate knockdown experiments. The functions "transcription", "translation" and "proteasome" can be modified to simulate the effects of altering the overall rate of transcription, translation and protein degradation. The parameters were fitted specifically to data from transgenic reporter lines TOC8, pTOC3, LHY7 and pLHY7 (Corellou et al., Plant Cell 2009). Parameters that begin with "effcopies" describe the effective number of copies of CCA1 or TOC1 in the respective translational fusion lines, with anything above 1 due to the fusion proteins. For the model fitting, the initial values were fitted to the data in the various time courses. The initial values given here correspond to the limit cycle of the system in LD 12:12. The system converges to the limit cycle in just a few days under most light conditions, so these initial values are biologically meaningful. The species cca1luc_c and cca1luc_n have been merged into cca1luc (which corresponds to the observable luminescence signal), because Copasi refused to run the system otherwise. For TOC1-LUC, the predicted output signal is the sum of toc1luc_1 and toc1luc_2.
