wild-type and gaf1 mutant cells treated with Torin1 or with a combination of caffeine/rapamycin

Project description:Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (TORC1) signaling promotes growth and ageing. Inhibition of TORC1 leads to a down-regulation of factors that stimulate protein translation, which in turn contributes to longevity. TORC1-dependent post-transcriptional regulation of protein translation has been well studied, while analogous transcriptional regulation is less understood. Here we screened fission yeast deletion mutants for resistance to Torin1, which inhibits TORC1 and cell growth. Cells lacking the GATA transcription factor Gaf1 (gaf1Δ) grew normally even in high doses of Torin1. The gaf1Δ mutation shortened the chronological lifespan of non-dividing cells and diminished the longevity triggered by Torin1 treatment. Expression profiling and genome-wide binding experiments showed that, upon TORC1 inhibition, Gaf1 directly up-regulated genes for small-molecule metabolic pathways and indirectly repressed genes for protein translation. Surprisingly, Gaf1 bound to, and down-regulated the tRNA genes, so also functions as a transcription factor for genes transcribed by RNA polymerase III. Thus, Gaf1 controls the transcription of both coding and tRNA genes to inhibit translation and growth downstream of TORC1.

Meta-stable structural variants alter gene expression and quantitative traits in the fission yeast

Project description:To examine whether naturally occurring duplications are altering gene expression we chose eight pairs of closely related strains (less than 150 SNPS between each pair) that contained at least one unshared duplication and performed pair-wise two-colour microarray analysis.

Communication between mitochondria and nucleus: defining a retrograde response in fission yeast

Project description:Retrograde response was widely studied in budding yeast but the main transcription factors that transmit it (RTG1,2 and 3) are not conserved in other organisms, thus it is interesting to study how communication between mitochondria and nucleus evolved in distantly related fission yeast, and which are the common aspects of this conserved pathway between yeast and higher organisms.To analyse any retrograde response in fission yeast, we inhibited the electron transport chain activity by antimycin A and studied cellular gene expression changes by microarrays. Cells treated with antimycin A in fermentative medium (YE with 3% glucose), showed the same growth rate as untreated cells, but they reached a lower biomass in stationary phase. Antimycin A treated cells consumed glucose at a faster rate and produced more ethanol, indicating that the energy metabolism was shifted even more towards fermentation. We analyzed the transcriptomes of antimycin A-treated cells to untreated control cells during early exponential growth phase (OD 0.5).

Functional and Regulatory Profiling of Energy Metabolism in Fission Yeast: dynamic gene regulation during adaptation to respiratory medium.

Project description:Fission yeast in high glucose media preferentially uses fermentation for energy production, even under aerobic conditions, an analogous metabolic programme, aerobic glycolysis, is a hallmark of cancer and enables the proliferation of tumor cells. Fission yeast, unlike budding yeast, requires mitochondrial genomes and oxidative phosphorylation for survival, mitochondrial inheritance, genome organisation and RNA processing are strikingly different between the two yeasts, and S. pombe mitochondria resemble more the human mitochondria. However, mitochondrial biology and respiratory control is poorly understood in fission yeast. In this study, we used microarrays to profile gene expression before and at six time points after the shift from fermentative to respiratory medium. Cells were grown in yeast extract based media with 3% glucose to early exponential phase (time point 0), then the carbon source was changed to 3% glycerol, 0.1% glucose. Transcript levels were monitored by microarrays at several time points after the switch (0.2, 0.5, 1, 2; 04 and 24 hours). Sample from each time point is hybrydized with sample of all pooled time points. Experiment was repeated twice with the dye swap.

An essential role for dNTP homeostasis following CDKinduced [Pu-seq]

Project description:Replication stress is a common feature of cancer cells, and thus a potentially important therapeutic target. Here we show that CDK-induced replication stress is synthetic lethal with mutations disrupting dNTP homeostasis in fission yeast. Wee1 inactivation leads to increased dNTP demand and replication stress through CDK-induced firing of dormant replication origins. Subsequent dNTP depletion leads to inefficient DNA replication, Mus81- dependent DNA damage, and to genome instability. Cells respond to this replication stress by increasing dNTP supply through Set2-dependent MBFinduced expression of Cdc22, the catalytic subunit of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). Disrupting dNTP synthesis following Wee1 inactivation, through loss of Set2-dependent H3K36 tri-methylation, results in further dNTP depletion due to reduced RNR expression, leading to replication catastrophe and cell death. This lethality can be rescued by increasing dNTP levels. Similarly, we find loss of the DNA integrity checkpoint results in synthetic lethality with Wee1 inactivation, which is also associated with replication collapse through critically low dNTP levels. Together, these findings support a ‘dNTP supply and demand’ model in which maintaining dNTP homeostasis is essential in preventing replication catastrophe in response to CDK-induced replication stress.

Mec1 is activated at the onset of normal S phase by low dNTP pools impeding DNA replication [sequencing]

Project description:The Mec1 and Rad53 kinases play a central role during acute replication stress in budding yeast. They are also essential for viability in normal growth conditions, but the signal that activates the Mec1–Rad53 pathway in the absence of exogenous insults is currently unknown. Here, we show that this pathway is active at the onset of normal S phase because dNTP levels present in G1 phase are not sufficient to support processive DNA synthesis and impede DNA replication. This activation can be suppressed experimentally by increasing dNTP levels in G1 phase. Moreover, we show that unchallenged cells entering S phase in the absence of Rad53 undergo irreversible fork collapse and mitotic catastrophe. Together, these data indicate that cells use dNTP shortage to detect the onset of DNA replication and activate the Mec1–Rad53 pathway, which in turn maintains functional forks and triggers dNTP synthesis, allowing the completion of DNA replication.
