Project description:The fission yeast Mcs6-Mcs2-Pmh1 complex (homologous to metazoan Cdk7-cyclin HMat1) performs dual functions: in cell cycle control, as a CDK-activating kinase; and in transcription by RNA polymerase (Pol) II, as part of TFIIH. It is unknown whether that linkage serves to coordinate gene expression with cell division. Mutants in mcs6 and pmh1 arrest with incomplete cell separation and decreased phosphorylation of the Pol II large subunit. Gene expression profiling by microarray hybridization revealed that a defined subset (~5%) of genes was repressed by Mcs6 complex impairment, whereas the majority was refractory. The repression signature included a cell-cycle cluster implicated in cytokinesis and cell separation, and overlapped with those of the cell-separation mutants sep1, sep10 and sep15 (relative to wild-type cells). The gene sep10 encodes the homolog of a protein found in metazoan Mediator-like complexes, and sep15 encodes an established component of the Mediator. In mcs6 or pmh1 mutants, sep10+, which also encodes a component of the transcriptional machinery, becomes essential for viability. Finally, mcs6+ also interacts genetically with sep1+, which encodes a forkhead transcription factor required for periodic transcription during mitosis and cell division. Thus, the Mcs6 complex (a direct activator of the cell-cycle engine) also helps govern the cell-cycle transcriptional program.

Project description:Fission yeast cells belong to one of two specialized cell types, M or P. Specific environmental conditions trigger sexual differentiation, which leads to an internal program starting with pheromone signalling between M and P cells, followed by mating, meiosis and sporulation. The initial steps of this process are controlled by Ste11p, a master transcriptional regulator that activates the expression of cell type-specific genes (only expressed in either M or P cells) as well as genes expressed in both M and P cells. <br><br> Pheromone signalling is activated by Ste11p-dependent transcription, and in turn enhances some of this transcription in a positive feedback. To obtain a genome-wide view of Ste11p target genes, their cell-type specificity, and their dependence on pheromone, we used DNA microarrays along with different genetic and environmental manipulations of fission yeast cells.We directly compared the transcriptome of homothallic wild-type cells (h90 fus1) with that of ste11 delta mutants under conditions that induce sexual differentiation. To allow for indirect effects of the ste11 delta mutation, we took advantage of the fact that ectopic expression of ste11 can drive cells into sexual differentiation and therefore is expected to cause the expression of Ste11p targets. We thus defined Ste11p targets as those genes whose expression was significantly reduced in a ste11 delta mutant and significantly increased when ste11 is overexpressed in vegetative cells.<br> <br> This study looked at the effect of deletion or overexpression of ste11, and changes in gene expression after nitrogen starvation of h plus, h minus, h90fus1 and h90ste11 cells.

Project description:Although much is known about the regulation of eukaryotic transcription, the global controls which determine rates of total transcription within a cell are not well understood. We have investigated the effects that the DNA to protein ratio has on both total cellular transcription and the transcription of individual mRNA genes in the unicellular eukaryote fission yeast. Mutants altered in cell size and those blocked in cell cycle progression were used to vary the DNA to protein ratio over a fivefold range around the wild type value. We find that cells of sizes within twofold of wild type value regulate global transcription to maintain similar transcription rates per protein regardless of the cellular DNA content. These changes in total transcription were correlated with coordinated changes in gene occupancy by RNA polymerase II. In large cell cycle arrested mutants, when the DNA to protein ratio falls to a low level, total transcription rates plateau as DNA becomes limiting for transcription1. Unexpectedly, expression levels of individual genes remained tightly coordinated with each other over the entire range of cell sizes. We propose that there is a coordinated, global cellular control which determines the rate of transcription of most genes in the genome and that this control plays a role in regulating the overall growth rate of the cell.
