Project description:Mapping the Drosophila melanogaster centromeric heterochromatin by CGH analysis of embryos lacking specific chromosomes or chromosome arms. Nine chromosome or chromosome arm deletions were tested: embryos lacking the entire second chromosome (2En-), 2L (2L-), 2R (2R-), the entire third chromosome (3En-), 3L (3L-), 3R (3R-), the entire fourth chromosome (4En-), the X chromosome (X-), or both X and Y chromosomes (XY-). Control: Blastoderm stage wild type Oregon R embryos. For each experiment 100-150 embryos of the appropriate genotype were collected. DNA from randomly staged 0-8 hr wild type Oregon R embryos was used as reference for all experiments. Embryos with no X chromosome were obtained by crossing attached-X/Y females (C(1)DX, y f) to X/Y males. Embryos with no X and Y chromosomes were obtained by crossing attached-X/Y females (C(1)RM, y2suwawa) to attached-XY males (YSX YL, In(1)EN, y B). The compound II chromosomes RM(2L); RM(2R)=C(2)v and the compound III chromosomes RM(3L); RM(3R)=C(3)se were used to generate 2L- and 2R-, and 3L- and 3R- embryos, respectively. The compound II C(2)EN and compound III C(3)EN st1 cu1es stocks were used to generate embryos deficient for the entire second and third chromosome, respectively. The compound IV C(4)RM, ci1eyR/0 were used to generate embryos deficient for the fourth chromosome. Embryos deficient for chromosome 4 were identified by their defects in denticle belt patterning during late embryogenesis, whereas embryos deficient for other chromosome/chromosome arm were recognized based on their specific phenotypic defects during early embryonic development. All embryos were collected at room temperature.

Project description:Mapping the Drosophila melanogaster X heterochromatin by CGH analysis of embryos lacking specific regions of the X chromosome. Eight ChrX deficiencies and duplications were tested: 168 (Dp(1;Y)y[2]67g), 175 (Dp(1;Y)y[2]sc), 114n (Dp(1;Y)y[+]mal[126]), 114f (Df(1)fog[114]), 186n (Dp(1;Y)y[+]mal), 186f (Df(1)mal12), B2580 (Dp(1;Y)ct y[+]), B5280 (Dp(1;Y)ct[+]y[+]). To generate embryos lacking different portions of the X heterochromatin, two types of stocks were used: (1) males carrying a deficient X chromosome missing part of the heterochromatin (generally fog-) and a duplication on the Y chromosome that complements the deficiency, and (2) males carrying a duplication of X on the Y chromosome which covers part of the X heterochromatin. In both cases males were crossed to attached X females. In the first case, one quarter of embryos lack most of the X chromosome except the duplication of X on Y. These embryos were identified according to their defects during cellularization. Another quarter of the embryos carry the deficient X chromosome as their sole X chromosome. These embryos were identified according to their defects in posterior midgut formation during early gastrulation. In the second case, one quarter of embryos that lack most of the X chromosome except the duplication of X on Y were identified according to their defects in cellularization or posterior midgut formation. All embryos were collected at room temperature.

Project description:CGH analysis of translocations with breakpoints at the euchromatin/heterochromatin boundary. Three translocations with breakpoint at the euchromatin/heterochromatin boundary of 2L, 3L and X, respectively, were analyzed by CGH to distinguish heterochromatic sequences from euchromatic sequences. X: 101042(T(1;Y)B91); 2L: 130186 (T(Y;2)R146); and 3L: 102004(T(2;3)H31). To obtain embryos lacking the euchromatin portion of the chromosome arms, translocation males bearing breakpoint at the euchromatin/heterochromatin boundary of 2L, 3L and X were crossed to C(2)EN, C(3)EN or attached X females, respectively. All embryos were collected at room temperature.

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. 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:The experimental evolution of laboratory populations of microbes provides an opportunity to observe the evolutionary dynamics of adaptation in real time.Until very recently, however, such studies have been limited by our inability to systematically find mutations in evolved organisms.We overcome this limitation by using a variety of DNA microarray-based techniques to characterize genetic changes, including point mutations, structural changes, and insertion variation, that resulted from the experimental adaptation of 24 haploid and diploid cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to growth in glucose-, sulfate, or phosphate-limited chemostats for ~ 200 generations.We identified frequent genomic amplifications and rearrangements as well as novel retrotransposition events associated with adaptation.Global mutation detection in 10 clonal isolates identified 32 point mutations. On the basis of mutation frequencies, we infer that these mutations and the subsequent dynamics of adaptation are determined by the batch phase of growth prior to initiation of continuous phase in the chemostat.We relate these genotypic changes to phenotypic outcomes, namely global patterns of gene expression, and to increases in fitness by 5-50%. We found that the spectrum of available mutations in glucose or phosphate-limited environments combined with the batch phase population dynamics early in our experiments to allow several distinct genotypic and phenotypic evolutionary pathways in response to these nutrient limitations. By contrast, sulfate-limited populations were much more constrained in both genotypic and phenotypic outcomes.Thus, the reproducibility of evolution varies with specific selective pressures reflecting the constraints inherent in the system-level organization of metabolic processes in the cell.We were able to relate some of the observed adaptive mutations (e.g. transporter gene amplifications) to known features of the relevant metabolic pathways, but many of the mutations pointed to genes not previously associated with the relevant physiology. Thus, in addition to answering basic mechanistic questions about evolutionary mechanisms our work suggests that experimental evolution can also shed light on the function and regulation of individual metabolic pathways.

Project description:Aneuploidy causes a proliferative disadvantage in all 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 high proliferative abilities and characterized their genetic alterations. We found both strain-specific genetic alterations and mutations shared between different aneuploid strains. One such mutation, a loss of function mutation in the gene encoding the deubiquitinating enzyme UBP6, improves growth rates in four different aneuploid yeast strains. Our data further suggest that deletion of UBP6 attenuates the effects of aneuploidy on cellular protein composition. 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. This dataset contains both expression analysis and CGH of yeast strains bearing extra chromosomes. In all cases, the wt euploid strain grown under the same conditions was used as the reference sample. Reference nucleic acid was generally labeled with Cy3, though some were labeled with Cy5 as indicated in the associated annotations for each array. No replicate arrays are included.

Project description:Technological advances now make gene expression analysis feasible in any sequenced organism, and new sequencing methods have greatly accelerated genome sequencing. Here we show that important insights into gene function are possible by comparing gene expression response to genetic and environmental perturbations between related species. We present a gene expression compendium designed for maximal gene expression variation in the sensu stricto yeast Saccharomyces bayanus. While many aspects of gene expression are conserved over the 20 million years of evolution separating S. bayanus from the model yeast S. cerevisiae, we observe regulatory changes, including in galactose metabolism and sporulation. The expression data also allows us to predict the biological roles of genes unique to S. bayanus, leading us to propose a role in oxidative stress response for a group of genes, and also to identify a regulatory network specific to this yeast. This dataset contains 53 experiments as follows: (experiment: number of datasets (number of arrays)) growth at different temperatures: 1 (3) heat shock: 4 (18) ammonium: 1 (6) cadmium: 1 (4) copper: 1 (6) lead: 1 (6) nickel: 1 (5) sulfite toxicity: 1 (6) zinc: 1 (6) ethanol toxicity: 1 (6) sorbitol: 1 (6) bleach: 1 (6) hydrogen peroxide: 3 (17) 2-deoxyglucose: 1 (6) hydroxyurea: 1 (6) lovastatin: 1 (4) MG-132: 1 (5) MMS: 1 (6) rapamycin: 1 (6) tunicamycin: 1 (6) zeocin: 1 (6) chronological aging: 3 (13) diauxic shift: 1 (6) galactose: 5 (38) glycerol: 1 (4) sucrose: 1 (4) auxotroph starvation: 1 (11) nutrient limited chemostat growth: 3 (7) mating type and ploidy: 1 (3) alpha factor: 1 (8) cell cycle: 1 (30) sporulation: 3 (18) strain backgrounds: 1 (4) cross progeny: 1 (22) Tn7 insertions: 1 (27) 555.11 and 670.20 knockout tetrads: 2 (8) Timecourse datasets: heat shock, ammonium, cadmium, copper, lead, nickel, sulfite toxicity, zinc, ethanol toxicity, sorbitol, bleach, hydrogen peroxide, 2-deoxyglucose, hydroxyurea, lovastatin, MG-132, MMS, rapamycin, tunicamycin, zeocin, chronological aging, diauxic shift, galactose, glycerol, sucrose, auxotroph starvation, alpha factor, cell cycle, sporulation Single timepoint datasets: growth at different temperatures, strain backgrounds, cross progeny, Tn7 insertions, nutrient limited chemostat growth, mating type and ploidy, 555.11 and 670.20 knockout tetrads Almost all samples were hybridized versus a common reference prepared from a mixture of RNA from Mat a, Matx, and Mata/x cells sampled in both exponential and stationary phase. Additionally, RNA from stress conditions was included: hydrogen peroxide treatment sampled at 10, 30 and 45 minutes, and heat shock from 25 to 37 degrees sampled at 10 and 30 minutes.

Project description:This study is a quantitative trait linkage mapping study targeted at gene-environment interaction. A family of yeast derived from BY4716 and RM11-1a was grown in two carbon sources (glucose and ethanol) and expression profiled. The analysis revealed how the influence of genetic factors changes in different conditions. Abstract: The effects of genetic variants on phenotypic traits often depend on environmental and physiological conditions, but such gene–environment interactions are poorly understood. Recently developed approaches that treat transcript abundances of thousands of genes as quantitative traits offer the opportunity to broadly characterize the architecture of gene–environment interactions. We examined the genetic and molecular basis of variation in gene expression between two yeast strains (BY and RM) grown in two different conditions (glucose and ethanol carbon sources). We observed that most transcripts vary by strain and condition, with 2,996, 3,448, and 2,037 transcripts showing significant strain, condition, and strain–condition interaction effects, respectively. We expression profiled over 100 segregants derived from a cross between RM and BY in both growth conditions, and identified 1,555 linkages for 1,382 transcripts that show significant gene–environment interaction. At the locus level, local linkages, which usually correspond to polymorphisms in cis-regulatory elements, tend to be more stable across conditions, such that they are more likely to show the same effect or the same direction of effect across conditions. Distant linkages, which usually correspond to polymorphisms influencing trans-acting factors, are more condition-dependent, and often show effects in different directions in the two conditions. We characterized a locus that influences expression of many growth- related transcripts, and showed that the majority of the variation is explained by polymorphism in the gene IRA2. The RM allele of IRA2 appears to inhibit Ras/PKA signaling more strongly than the BY allele, and has undergone a change in selective pressure. Our results provide a broad overview of the genetic architecture of gene–environment interactions, as well as a detailed molecular example, and lead to key insights into how the effects of different classes of regulatory variants are modulated by the environment. These observations will guide the design of studies aimed at understanding the genetic basis of complex traits. Keywords: QTL This data set includes 24 parental arrays (6 of each parent in each condition, 218 segregant arrays (109 in both conditions), and 4 allele replacement arrays (IRA2 replacements in both backgrounds in both conditions). All arrays are from an unique biological sample, and many are randomized for dye (no dye-swaps on the same RNA sample). For the 24 parental arrays, there are three of each strain*condition*dye combination. The segregant arrays were randomized for dye. The replacement arrays are all of the Cy5 = experimental, Cy3 = reference type. All arrays are hybridized to a common reference consisting of an equal portions of RNA samples. from BY and RM grown in glucose and ethanol. Analysis was performed using default settings in Agilent Feature Extractor software versions 8.0-9.5. Spots were excluded if their intensity was below 350 or if they were flagged as non-uniformity outliers. Transcripts were considered good if they were present in all parental arrays (for the parental analysis) or 80% of all arrays in each condition for the segregant analysis.

Project description:Time courses and RNA isolation. Strains were created that constitutively express fevR (FTT0383) transcript by replacing the endogenous fevR promoter with that of groES, and this gro::fevR region was integrated into either the wild-type, mglA mutant (GB2), or fevR knockout. Overnight cultures of F. novicida strains were grown in TSB 0.2% cysteine at 37C with shaking and subcultured to an OD600 of 0.01 in 200ml. Samples were taken throughout the growth curve for RNA isolation and to determine the OD600. Four samples were taken during the growth curve at 2, 4, 6, and 8h for characterization of in gro::fevR bypass experiments. RNA was harvested and a common reference was created by combining equal amounts of RNA from each sample in the experiment. 1ug of RNA from either the samples or common reference was reverse transcribed and samples were labeled with Cy5 (samples) or Cy3 (reference) and hybridized to the Francisella microarray described in Brotcke, Weiss, et al. Infection and Immunity, 2006. An all pairs experiment design type is where all labeled extracts are compared to every other labeled extract. all pairs
