<h4>Background</h4>DNA polymerase gamma(Pol-gamma) has been shown to be essential for maintenance of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) in the petite-positive budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Budding yeast cells lacking mitochondria exhibit a slow-growing or petite-colony phenotype. Petite strains fail to grow on non-fermentable carbon sources. However, it is not clear whether the Pol-gamma is required for mtDNA maintenance in the petite-negative fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.<h4> ...[more]

Project description:The G2 DNA damage checkpoint inhibits Cdc2 and mitotic entry through the dual regulation of Wee1 and Cdc25 by the Chk1 effector kinase. Up-regulation of Chk1 by mutation or overexpression bypasses the requirement for up-stream regulators or DNA damage to promote a G2 cell cycle arrest. We screened in fission yeast for mutations that rendered cells resistant to overexpressed Chk1. We identified a mutation in tra1, which encodes one of two homologs of TRRAP, an ATM/R-related pseudokinase that scaffolds several histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complexes. Inhibition of histone deacetylases reverts the resistance to overexpressed Chk1, suggesting this phenotype is due to a HAT activity, though expression of checkpoint and cell cycle genes is not greatly affected. Cells with mutant or deleted tra1 activate Chk1 normally and are checkpoint proficient. However, these cells are semi-wee even when overexpressing Chk1, and accumulate inactive Wee1 protein. The Cdr (changed division response) kinases Cdr1 and Cdr2 are negative regulators of Wee1, and while best characterized in the cellular response to limited nutrition, we show that they are required for the Tra1-dependent alterations to Wee1 function. This identifies Tra1 as another component controlling the timing of entry into mitosis via Cdc2 activation. Two and three independent microaaray experiments were done for wild type and the mutant (tra1-1) respectively.

Project description:Here we present the study on ChIP-chip mapping of the genomic binding sites for Sty1, Atf1, and the Atf1's binding partner Pcr1; the genome-wide transcriptional profiling of the atf1 and pcr1 strains in response to H2O2; and the phenotypic assessment of ~90 Atf1/Pcr1-bound or unbound genes for growth fitness under H2O2 conditions. ChIP-chip analysis shows that Atf1 and Pcr1 binding sites are overlapped in the genome and constitutively present before H2O2 stress. On the other hand, Sty1 recruitment primarily occurs at the Atf1/Pcr1 binding sites and is induced by H2O2. We found that Atf1/Pcr1 is clearly responsible for the high-level transcriptional response to H2O2. Furthermore, phenotypic assessment indicates that among the H2O2-induced genes, Atf1/Pcr1-bound genes exhibit a higher likelihood of functional requirement for growth fitness under the stress condition than the Atf1/Pcr1-unbound genes do. Notably, we found that the Atf1/Pcr1-bound genes regardless of their responsiveness to H2O2 show a high probability of requirement for growth fitness. . Expression level of genes in triplicates at 0min (without stress) is compared with that at 10, 30, 60, and 120min after stress treatment. ChIP-chip analyses is done for Atf1-HA, pcr1-HA, sty1-HA, Sty1-HA allele in the atf1D or pcr1D background without and with H2O2 (0.5mM for 30min).

Project description:Kinase deletion strains treated with or without nitrogen starvation Background: Protein kinase-mediated signaling pathways play a pivotal role in regulation of stress responses. Nitrogen starvation (NS) induces sexual development when mating partner available or entry into a quiescent state (G0) in heterothallic background. However, it is unclear whether transcriptional profiles in response to NS allows distinguishing between kinase deletion strains defective in sexual development and/or G0-arrest. Results: In this study, we used DNA microarray to analyze transcriptional profiles in 68 protein kinase deletion strains prior to and after NS. Microarray analyses indicated that NS-induced transcriptional profiles of all kinase strains plus wild type are highly correlated with one another (i.e., Pearson¡¯s correlation coefficient r > 0.7) except for that of pka1¦¤, which showed no high correlation with other 11 kinase strains. Significantly, 9 of 11 strains were defective in sexual development, suggesting that the NS-induced profile of pka1¦¤ serves as a signature with no high correlation with profiles of kinase strains defective in sexual development. Furthermore, we show that expression of the NS-induced genes is elevated in pka1¦¤ and cyr1¦¤ strains prior to NS. On the other hand, levels of the NS-induced genes expression in pka1¦¤, cyr1¦¤, sty1¦¤, and byr1¦¤ are significantly lower than that of wild type. Conclusions: Taken together, our analyses indicate that the cAMP-dependent Pka1-mediated signaling pathway play a major role in regulation of the NS-induced genes prior to and after NS. In addition, the ROS-activated kinase Sty1 and the pheromone-induced kinase Byr1 are also involved in up-regulation of NS-induced genes upon NS stress. 68 kinase deletion strains and other 5 deletion strains were treated with (60m) or without (0min) nitrogen starvation

Project description:DNA replication is initiated at multiple sites or origins enriched with AT-rich sequences at various times during the S-phase. While current studies of genome-wide DNA replication profiles have focused on the timing of replication and the location of origins, the efficiency of replication/firing at various origins remains unclear. In this study, we show different efficiencies of DNA replication at various loci by using ORF-specific DNA microarrays. DNA copy-number increases as a function of time at individual loci are approximated to near-sigmoidal models for estimation of replication initiation and completion timings in HU-challenged cells. Duplicating times (from initiation to completion) vary from loci to loci, partly contributing to various firing efficiencies at origins. DNA replication timing profiles are strikingly similar to the reported patterns of enriched ssDNA, suggesting that majority stalled forks are restored for resumption of DNA replication. Although the DNA replication timing profiles are disrupted in HU-challenged cds1? cells, ~85% of potential origins overlapped with those found in wild type cells, significantly, most of which represents inefficiently fired origins in wild type cells. Together, our result indicates that replication checkpoint plays a role in monitoring efficient origins and thus maintaining global DNA replication patterns in HU-challenged cells. Keywords: WT or Cds1 HU synchronized cells released in HU free media and harvested at different time points vs WT or Cds1 synchronized with HU for 3 hrs. We analyzed 32 arrays for WT and 38 arrays for Cds1 cells which were synchronized with HU and released in HU free media and harvested at different time points. At least two biological repeats were done for each time points.

Project description:To better understand the problems associated with cloning, gene expression profiling of AI- and SCNT-derived bovine (day 25 of pregnancy) fetuses was performed. The embryonic disc and the extraembryonic tissues for each fetus were analyzed separately using a bovine oligoarray. Clustering of all the expression profiles showed clustering by tissue, but no separation of AI vs. SCNT samples was observed. Statistical analysis using a mixed model revealed 188 differentially expressed genes between the extraembryonic tissues and 10 differentially expressed genes between the embryonic discs of AI- and SCNT-derived fetuses. Between the tissue types >9,000 genes showed differential expression, of which 2,127 that showed >=2-fold difference in expression. The data generated in the current experiment clearly shows that the main problem with SCNT pregnancies is related to abnormal gene expression in the extraembryonic tissues.

Project description:In vitro production (IVP) has been shown to affect embryonic gene expression and often result in large offspring syndrome (LOS) in cattle and sheep. To dissect the effects of in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture, we compared the expression profiles of single bovine blastocysts generated by: 1) in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture (IVF); 2) in vivo maturation, fertilization and in vitro culture (IVD); and 3) in vivo maturation, fertilization and development (AI). To conduct expression profiling, total RNA was isolated from individual embryos, linearly amplified and hybridized to a custom bovine cDNA microarray containing approximately 6,300 unique genes. There were 306, 367 and 200 genes differentially expressed between the AI and IVD, IVF and IVD and AI and IVF comparisons, respectively. Interestingly, 44 differentially expressed genes were identified between the AI embryos and both the IVF and IVD embryos, making these potential candidates for LOS. There were 60 genes differentially expressed between the IVF embryos and the AI and IVD embryos. The Gene Ontology category M-bM-^@M-^\RNA processingM-bM-^@M-^] was over-represented among the genes that were down-regulated in the IVF embryos, indicating an effect of in vitro oocyte maturation/fertilization on embryonic gene expression. A culture effect on the expression of genes involved in translation was also observed by the comparison of AI to IVD embryos. Reference design with dye swap. 43 individual embryos were analyzed.

Project description:SF-1, a transcription factor belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily, has a pivotal role for adrenogonadal development in humans and mice. A constant feature of childhood adrenocortical tumors (ACT) is SF-1 amplification and overexpression. Using an inducible cellular system, here we show that SF-1 overexpression increases human adrenocortical cell proliferation through opposing effects on cell cycle and apoptosis. SF-1 overexpression also selectively modulates steroidogenesis, reducing cortisol and aldosterone secretion. We identified a novel pro-apoptotic factor for adrenocortical cells, NOV/CCN3, whose levels are significantly reduced by SF-1 overexpression in human adrenocortical cells and are also reduced in primary adrenal tumors. Moreover, Sf-1 overexpression triggers adrenocortical hyperplasia and tumor formation in mice. These tumors express gonadal markers and activated Stat3. Our studies reveal the critical role of SF-1 gene dosage for adrenocortical tumorigenesis and constitute a rationale for the development of drugs targeting SF-1 transcriptional activity for ACT therapy. Keywords: differential expression, transcription factor Gene expression profiles were analyzed in two different H295R TR/SF-1 WT clones overexpressing SF-1 in a tetracycline-regulated fashion cultured in basal conditions or after three days of doxycycline treatment.
