Project description:Aneuploidy, the condition of having an abnormal number of chromosomes, is a hallmark of cancer cells. Recent work performed in yeast and mouse models suggests that aneuploidy interferes with cell proliferation and organism development. However, other recent experiments suggested that aneuploidy might play a positive role in tumor initiation and/or progression and in the emergence of chemotherapy as well as antibiotic resistances. Given its general deleterious effects on cellular fitness, how could aneuploidy be beneficial? In this set of experiments we plan to provide evidence that aneuploidy induces phenotypic variation through direct and indirect changes not only at the transcriptome but also at the proteome level.

Project description:In general, yeast strains with myo1 knocked out cannot perform cytokinesis, but some evolve new ways of accomplishing the task. This is an examination of differential gene expression patterns in a selection of evolved mutants that can successfully perform cytokinesis. The purpose is to attempt a molecular characterization of the evolved responses.

Project description:This experiment was a 7-part time series (or, 2x7 factorial design) examining the effect of rapamycin on gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Treated and untreated cultures were compared at 0, 20, 40, 60, 120, 240, and 360 minutes. In the paper, expression ratios (mRNA) at each time point were compared to equivalent ratios (protein) from shotgun proteomics NSAF data. High-expressing mRNA ratios were also clustered and GO-characterized.

Project description:Fluconazole (FLC), a triazole antifungal drug, is widely used for the maintenance therapy of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis, the most common opportunistic infection in AIDS patients, but this usage predisposes to the appearance of FLC resistance, especially in patients with no or limited access to highly active antiretroviral therapy. We used microarray analysis to examine changes in the gene expression profile of C. neoformans reference strain H99 (serotype A) following exposure to FLC in order to study the adaptive cellular responses to drug stress. Simultaneous analysis of over 6,823 C. neoformans gene transcript levels revealed that 476 genes were responsive to FLC. Up-regulated expression was observed, as expected, for genes involved in the ergosterol biosynthesis, including ERG13, ERG1, ERG7, ERG25, ERG2, ERG3, ERG5, and that encoding the azole target, ERG11, but also for the gene SRE1, that encodes a well-known regulator of sterol homeostasis in C. neoformans. In addition, several genes such as those involved in a wide variety of important cellular processes (i.e., lipid and fatty acid metabolism, cell wall maintenance, stress, virulence, etc.), were found to be up-regulated in response to fluconazole treatment. Some of these genes may represent potential therapeutic targets to be exploited in anticryptococcal therapy. Conversely, expression of AFR1, the major transporter of azoles in C. neoformans, was shown to be not affected by exposure to FLC, thus suggesting a minor involvement in the C. neoformans short-term adaptation to the azole drug. We studied the transient response of C. neoformans to fluconazole by analyzing differences in gene expression prior to and after exposure of strain H99. Three biological replicates were performed for each condition (FLC-exposed and -not exposed (controls)). The cells were exposed to 10 µg of FLC/ml (1/2 x MIC) or distilled water (controls) for one doubling time (90 min).

Project description:Cell division is a highly regulated process that secures the generation of healthy progeny in all organisms, from yeast to human. Dysregulation of this process can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and genomic instability, both which are hallmarks of cancer. Cell cycle progression is dictated by a complex network of kinases and phosphatases. These enzymes act on their substrates in a highly specific temporal manner ensuring that the process of cell division is unidirectional and irreversible. Key events of the cell cycle, such as duplication of genetic material and its redistribution to daughter cells, occur in S-phase and mitosis, respectively. Deciphering the dynamics of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation events during these cell cycle phases is important. Here we showcase a quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic mass spectrometry dataset that profiles both early and late phosphorylation events and associated proteome alterations that occur during S-phase and mitotic arrest in the model organism S. cerevisiae. This dataset is of broad interest as the molecular mechanisms governing cell cycle progression are conserved throughout evolution.

Project description:ChIP-chip to determine the regulation of the K. lactis hsgs (ChIP of MATa1, MATalpha2, and RME1). The MATa1 and MATalpha2 ChIPs were performed in an a/alpha cell using N-terminally HA-tagged proteins and the RME1 ChIPs were perfomed in an a cell using C-terminally myc-tagged protein. For the RME1 ChIPs, the cells grown with out phosphate. For the MATa1 andMATalpha2 ChIPs the cells were grown in YEPD. Epitope tagged strains were compared to untagged control strains. Two biological replicates were preformed for the RME1 ChIP. For the MATa1 and MATalpha2 ChIP, peaks were considered indicative of binding if both MATa1 and MATalpha2 showed enrichment above the untagged control.

Project description:Candida albicans, the most common cause of human fungal infections, undergoes a reversible morphological transition from yeast to pseudohyphal and hyphal filaments, which is required for virulence. For many years, the relationship between global gene expression patterns associated with determination of specific C. albicans morphologies has remained obscure. Using a strain that can be genetically manipulated to sequentially transition from yeast to pseudohyphae to hyphae in the absence of complex environmental cues and upstream signaling pathways, we demonstrate by whole-genome transcriptional profiling that genes associated with pseudohyphae represent a subset of those associated hyphae and are generally expressed at lower levels; interestingly, no genes appeared to be expressed exclusively in pseudohyphae. Our results also strongly suggest that in addition to dosage, extended duration of filament-specific gene expression is sufficient to drive the C. albicans yeast-pseudohyphal-hyphal transition. Finally, we describe the first transcriptional profile of the C. albicans reverse hyphal-pseudohyphal-yeast transition and demonstrate that this transition not only involves down-regulation of known hyphal-specific genes but also differential expression of additional genes which have not previously been associated with the forward transition, including many involved in protein synthesis. These findings provide new insight into genome-wide mechanisms important for determining fungal morphology and suggest that in addition to similarities, there are also fundamental differences in global gene expression as pathogenic filamentous fungi undergo forward and reverse morphological transitions. The Dosage Experiment (13 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were treated with various concentrations of Doxycycline (Dox): 20 (n=3), 0.4 (n=1), 0.35 (n=1), 0.3 (n=1), 0.25 (n=1), 0.2 (n=1), 0.15 (n=1), 0.1 (n=1), 0.05 (n=1), 0.02 (n=1) and 0 µg/mL (n=1). Each 20 ug/ml sample was used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of the experimental samples. The Forward Transition Experiment (23 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were grown in the presence (n=10) or absence (n=10) of 1.0 ug/ml Dox and subsequently harvested at time points between 1 and 10 hours. Each 1.0 ug/mL Dox treated sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of all 21 experimental samples. The Reverse Transition Experiment (26 arrays) was performed twice (two biological replicates). MBY38 cells were grown in the presence (n=10) or absence (n=10) of 20.0 ug/ml Dox and subsequently harvested at time points between 1 and 10 hours. Each 20.0 ug/mL sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. Each untreated (no Dox) sample was collected at 0 hours and used for 3 technical replicate arrays, one of which was labeled using reverse fluors. The reference sample consisted of equal aliquots of all 22 experimental samples. The Dox Control Experiment consisted of 12 arrays. PCY87 cells were grown in the presence (n=5) or absence (n=5) of 20.0 ug/ml Dox overnight to create 5 pairs of biological replicates. Three pairs of biological replicates were labelled normally (one of which was repeated as a technical replicate using reverse fluors) and 2 pairs of biological replicates were labeled using reverse fluors. The Dosage Experiment reference was used as the reference sample.

Project description:Techniques for systematically monitoring protein translation have lagged far behind methods for measuring mRNA levels. Here we present a ribosome profiling strategy, based on deep sequencing of ribosome protected mRNA fragments, that enables genome-wide investigation of translation with sub-codon resolution. We used this technique to monitor translation in budding yeast under both rich and starvation conditions. These studies defined the protein sequences being translated and found extensive translational control both for determining absolute protein abundance and for responding to environmental stress. We also observed distinct phases during translation involving a large decrease in ribosome density going from early to late peptide elongation as well as wide-spread, regulated initiation at non-AUG codons. Ribosome profiling is readily adaptable to other organisms, making high-precision investigation of protein translation experimentally accessible.

Project description:SSD1 is a polymorphic locus in budding yeast with many pleiotropic effects. Our lab had previously done transcript microarray of W303a in an ssd1-d background, and here we have carried out another transcript microarray across the cell cycle in an isogenic SSD1-V background. We find that a large fraction of budding yeast transcripts is differentially expressed in these cells. Ssd1 has recently been shown to bind mRNAs in vivo, but very few of these mRNAs show significant changes in levels in the SSD1-V versus ssd1-d comparison. About 20% of cell cycle-regulated transcripts are affected by SSD1-V and most of these transcripts show sharper amplitudes of oscillation in SSD1-V cells. Many transcripts whose gene products influence longevity are also affected, the largest class of which are involved in translation. Ribosomal protein mRNAs are globally down-regulated by SSD1-V. Cells were synchronized with alpha factor and sampled every 10 min across 2 cell cycles. A total of 13 samples were analyzed. No replicates were included. cDNA of the cell cycle samples were labelled with Cy5. For Cy3 labelling, asynchronous yeast population was used.
