Transcriptomic profiling of S. cerevisiae wild type and aft2 mutant in response to exposure to selenite

ABSTRACT: The yeast S. cerevisiae does not require selenium for growth, so it is an excellent model to investigate the toxicity of this element without interference from its requirement as growth factor as occurs in animal cells. Exposure to selenite interferes with the yeast iron metabolism. Aft2 is a transcription factor related (with Aft1) to maintenance of iron homeostasis. We have found that aft2 cells are highly sensitive to selenite (a common environmental source for selenium). In these experiments we investigate the transcriptional response to a sub-lethal dose of selenite in wild type and aft2 cells. Our results show that the aft2 mutation strongly potentiates the transcriptional response to selenite, showing induction of many genes related to the responses to oxidative stress and DNA damage. Wild type (W303-1A) background and its MML1086 derivative (Daft2) were exposed to 1 mm selenite and samples taken at time 0, 1, 3 and 5 h of selenite treatment. Two biological replicates were prepared for each time-point. Therefore, there are 8 samples per replicate (4 samples for WT and 4 samples for aft2 cells). The WT strain is used here as reference.

Aft2 in yeast iron regulation

Project description:Iron homeostasis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is regulated at the transcriptional level by Aft1p, which activates the expression of its target genes in response to low-iron conditions. The yeast genome contains a paralog of AFT1, which has been designated AFT2. To establish whether AFT1 and AFT2 have overlapping functions, a mutant containing a double aft1aft2 deletion was generated. Growth assays established that the single aft2 strain exhibited no iron-dependent phenotype. However, the double-mutant aft1aft2 strain was more sensitive to low-iron growth conditions than the single-mutant aft1 strain. A mutant allele of AFT2 (AFT2-1up), or overexpression of the wild-type AFT2 gene, led to partial complementation of the respiratory- deficient phenotype of the aft1 strain. The AFT2-1up allele also increased the uptake of 59Fe in an aft1 strain. DNA microarrays were used to identify genes regulated by AFT2. Some of the AFT2-regulated genes are known to be regulated by Aft1p; however, AFT2-1up-dependent activation was independent of Aft1p. The kinetics of induction of two genes activated by the AFT2-1up allele are consistent with Aft2p acting as a direct transcriptional factor. Truncated forms of Aft1p and Aft2p bound to a DNA duplex containing the Aft1p binding site in vitro. The wild-type allele of AFT2 activated transcription in response to growth under low-iron conditions. Together, these data suggest that yeast has a second regulatory pathway for the iron regulon, with AFT1 and AFT2 playing partially redundant roles.

Transcriptome analyses of a C. glabrata strain deleted for the transcription factor Aft2.

Project description:In these experiments, we compared the transcriptomes of a wild type strain and an aft2 deleted strain of the pathogenic yeast Candida glabrata. The comparisons were performed in four different growth conditions: iron starvation (BPS treatment), selenite treatment, cadmium treatment and optimal growth conditions (YPD).

Transcriptional responses of the zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain to acute sodium selenite supplementation.

Project description:The possible benefits of selenium (Se) supplementation are currently under investigation for prevention of certain cancers and treatment of neurological disorders. Little is known concerning the response of the brain to increased dietary Se under conditions of Se sufficiency, despite the majority of Se supplementation trials occurring in healthy subjects considered Se sufficient. We evaluated the transcriptional response of the zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain to supplementation with nutritionally relevant levels of dietary Se (sodium selenite) during conditions of assumed Se sufficiency. We used a microarray approach to analyze the global gene expression response of the brain to dietary Se supplementation for 14 days. The experiment used Affymetrix microarrays to compare whole brain RNA from 8 adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) fed a diet with control selenium levels (1.4ppmSe) and 8 fed a diet supplemented with sodium selenite (5.6ppmSe) for 14 days, and with an equal sex ratio within each diet.

Functional Genomics Analysis of the Yeast Iron Responsive Transcription Factor Aft1 Reveals Iron-Independent Functions

Project description:The Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcription factor Aft1 is activated in iron-deficient cells to induce the expression of iron regulon genes, which coordinate the increase of iron uptake and remodel cellular metabolism to survive low iron conditions. In addition, Aft1 has been implicated in numerous cellular processes including cell cycle progression and chromosome stability; however it is unclear if all cellular effects of Aft1 are mediated through iron homeostasis. To further investigate the cellular processes impacted by Aft1 using genome-wide synthetic lethal and synthetic dosage lethal screens, we identified greater than 70 deletion mutants that are sensitive to perturbations in AFT1 levels. Our genetic network reveals that Aft1 impacts a diverse range of cellular processes, including the RIM101 pH pathway, cell wall stability, DNA damage, protein transport, chromosome stability and mitochondrial function. Surprisingly, only a subset of mutants identified are sensitive to iron fluctuations or display genetic interactions with mutants of iron regulon genes AFT2 or FET3. We demonstrate that Aft1 works in parallel with the RIM101 pH pathway and the role of Aft1 in cell wall structure and DNA damage repair is mediated by iron. In contrast, we show that the role of Aft1 in chromosome maintenance is independent of its iron regulatory role and that alterations in iron levels do not impact chromosome loss rates. Our study clearly demonstrates a novel iron-independent role for Aft1.
