Transcription profiling of procyclic Trypanosoma brucei cultured at 27oC or under heat shock stress conditions at 41oC


ABSTRACT: Procyclic trypanosomes (strain 427 lister) were grown in culture under standard conditions at 27ºC in SDM79 medium with 10% foetal bovine serume (Brun and Schnenberger, 1979), in a gazed incubator (5% CO2). Logarithmically growing procyclic cells (at about 5*10^6 cells/ml, at 27°C) were added to one volume medium that had been heated to 53°C and incubated at 41ºC for 60 minutes in a waterbath in a closed tube (41ºC sample). The control cells were added to one volume medium at 27ºC and also incubated for 60 minutes in a closed tube at 27°C. Cells were harvested and washed once in PBS. The harvesting was done within 8 minutes.

Heat shock causes a decrease in polysomes and the appearance of stress granules in trypanosomes independently of eIF2(alpha) phosphorylation at Thr169.

In trypanosomes there is an almost total reliance on post-transcriptional mechanisms to alter gene expression; here, heat shock was used to investigate the response to an environmental signal. Heat shock rapidly and reversibly induced a decrease in polysome abundance, and the consequent changes in mRNA metabolism were studied. Both heat shock and polysome dissociation were necessary for (1) a reduction in mRNA levels that was more rapid than normal turnover, (2) an increased number of P-body-lik  ...[more]
