Transcriptional response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to high glucose (20%) concentration

ABSTRACT: Yeast cells can be affected during their growth to several stress conditions. One of the most known and characterised is the osmotic stress and most of the studies about osmotic sterss response in yeast have been focused on salt or sorbitol stress. However, during yeast growth in industrially relevant processes (for instance throughout alcoholic fermentation on the must to produce alcoholic beverages) the osmotic stress is mainly due to the high sugar(in particular glucose) concentration (200-250 g/L). In this study we want to know the transcriptional response of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae when it was grown in a medium with high glucose concentration. For this aim we have grown yeast in YP medium containing 2% of glucose in cultures overnight and after that we diluted this cultures to an OD600 of 0.1 in two differents mediums: YP containing 2% or 20% of glucose.One hour later of inoculation we collect the cells and quikly frozen in liquid nitrogen. We extracted the total mRNA of the cells and after that we did the microarrays, comparing cells were grown in YP2 media against the cells were grown in YP20 media.

One of the stress conditions that can affect Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells during their growth is osmotic stress. Under particular environments (for instance, during the production of alcoholic beverages) yeasts have to cope with osmotic stress caused by high sugar concentrations. Although the molecular changes and pathways involved in the response to saline or sorbitol stress are widely understood, less is known about how cells respond to high sugar concentrations. In this work we present a co ...[more]

Project description:Background: In prokaryotes, sigma factors are essential for the targeting of the transcription machinery to promoters. Various sigma factors have been described that recognize and bind to specific DNA sequence motifs in promoter sequences. The canonical sigma factor M-OM-^C70 is commonly involved in transcription of the cell's general housekeeping genes, which is mediated by the conserved M-OM-^C70 promoter sequence motifs. This study detects and predicts the general M-OM-^C70-promoter sequences in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 using genome-wide analysis. The accuracy of the transcriptionally-active part of this promoter prediction was subsequently evaluated by correlating locations of predicted promoters with experimentally detected transcription starts sites (TSSs) using high-resolution tiling array transcriptome datasets. Results: To identify M-OM-^C70-related promoter sequences, we performed a genome-wide sequence motif scan of the L. plantarum WCFS1 genome focusing on the regions upstream of protein-encoding genes. We obtained several highly conserved motifs including those resembling the conserved M-OM-^C70-promoter consensus. Position weight matrices-based models of the recovered M-OM-^C70-promoter sequence motif were employed to identify 4746 motifs with significant similarity (p-value < 10-4) to the model-motif in the L. plantarum genome. Genome-wide transcription start site information deduced from whole genome tiling-array transcriptome datasets revealed 936 TSSs that were employed to validate the transcriptionally active fraction of these predicted promoters. In total, 578 predicted promoters were found in proximity (M-bM-^IM-$ 100 nucleotides) of the identified TSSs, showing a highly significant co-occurrence of predicted promoter and measured TSS (p-value < 10-23). An additional 224 predicted promoters was validated when the significant similarity to the model-motif was applied less strictly (10-4 M-bM-^IM-$ p-value < 10-3). Conclusions: High-resolution tiling arrays provide a suitable source for TSS detection at a genome-wide level, and allow experimental verification of in silico-predicted promoter sequence motifs. Triplicate hybridizations (technical replicates) of two L. plantarum WCFS1 samples (biological replicates) gathered from a fermentation run at OD600 of 1. Dye swap applied to one of the three technical replicates.
