Transcriptome sequencing and screening of genes related to glucose availability in Schizosaccharomyces pombe by RNA-seq analysis.

ABSTRACT: While calorie restriction is the most used experimental intervention to increase lifespan in numerous model organisms, increasing evidence suggests that excess glucose leads to decreased lifespan in various organisms. To fully understand the molecular basis of the pro-aging effect of glucose, it is still important to discover genetic interactions, gene expression patterns, and molecular responses depending on glucose availability. Here, we compared the gene expression profiles in Schizosaccharomyces pombe mid-log-phase cells grown in three different Synthetic Dextrose media with 3%, 5%, and 8% glucose, using the RNA sequencing method. Expression patterns of genes that function in carbohydrate metabolism were downregulated as expected, and these genes were downregulated in line with the increase in glucose content. Significant and consistent changes in the expression were observed such as genes that encoding retrotransposable elements, heat shock proteins, glutathione S-transferase, cell agglutination protein, and conserved fungal proteins. We group some genes that function together in the transcription process and mitotic regulation, which have recently been associated with glucose availability. Our results shed light on the relationship between excess glucose, diverse cellular processes, and aging.

Dynamic transcriptome of Schizosaccharomyces pombe shown by RNA-DNA hybrid mapping.

Project description:We have determined the high-resolution strand-specific transcriptome of the fission yeast S. pombe under multiple growth conditions using a novel RNA-DNA hybridization mapping (HybMap) technique. HybMap uses an antibody against an RNA-DNA hybrid to detect RNA molecules hybridized to a high-density DNA oligonucleotide tiling microarray. HybMap showed exceptional dynamic range and reproducibility, and allowed us to identify strand-specific coding, noncoding and structural RNAs, as well as previously unknown RNAs conserved in distant yeast species. Notably, we found that virtually the entire euchromatic genome (including intergenics) is transcribed, with heterochromatin dampening intergenic transcription. We identified features including large numbers of condition-specific noncoding RNAs, extensive antisense transcription, new properties of antisense transcripts and induced divergent transcription. Furthermore, our HybMap data informed the efficiency and locations of RNA splicing genome-wide. Finally, we observed strand-specific transcription islands around tRNAs at heterochromatin boundaries inside centromeres. Here, we discuss these new features in terms of organism fitness and transcriptome evolution.

The telomeric transcriptome of Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:Eukaryotic telomeres are transcribed into telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA). Telomeric transcription has been documented in mammals, birds, zebra fish, plants and budding yeast. Here we show that the chromosome ends of Schizosaccharomyces pombe produce distinct RNA species. As with budding yeast and mammals, S. pombe contains G-rich TERRA molecules and subtelomeric RNA species transcribed in the opposite direction of TERRA (ARRET). Moreover, fission yeast chromosome ends produce two novel RNA species: C-rich telomeric repeat-containing transcripts (ARIA) and subtelomeric transcripts complementary to ARRET (αARRET). RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) associates with pombe chromosome ends in vivo and the telomeric factor Rap1 negatively regulates this association, as well as the cellular accumulation of RNA emanating from chromosome ends. We also show that the RNAPII subunit Rpb7 and the non-canonical poly(A) polymerases Cid12 and Cid14 are involved in the regulation of TERRA, ARIA, ARRET and αARRET transcripts. We confirm the evolutionary conservation of telomere transcription, and reveal intriguing similarities and differences in the composition and regulation of telomeric transcripts among model organisms.

Characterization of Schizosaccharomyces pombe RNA triphosphatase.

Project description:RNA triphosphatase catalyzes the first step in mRNA cap formation which entails the cleavage of the beta-gamma phosphoanhydride bond of triphosphate-terminated RNA to yield a diphosphate end that is then capped with GMP by RNA guanylyltransferase. Here we characterize a 303 amino acid RNA triphosphatase (Pct1p) encoded by the fission yeast SCHIZOSACCHAROMYCES: pombe. Pct1p hydrolyzes the gamma phosphate of triphosphate-terminated poly(A) in the presence of magnesium. Pct1p also hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and P(i) in the presence of manganese or cobalt (K(m) = 19 microM ATP; k(cat) = 67 s(-1)). Hydrolysis of 1 mM ATP is inhibited with increasing potency by inorganic phosphate (I(0.5) = 1 mM), pyrophosphate (I(0.5) = 0.4 mM) and tripolyphosphate (I(0.5) = 30 microM). Velocity sedimentation indicates that Pct1p is a homodimer. Pct1p is biochemically and structurally similar to the catalytic domain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA triphosphatase Cet1p. Mechanistic conservation between Pct1p and Cet1p is underscored by a mutational analysis of the putative metal-binding site of Pct1p. Pct1p is functional in vivo in S.cerevisiae in lieu of Cet1p, provided that it is coexpressed with the S.pombe guanylyltransferase. Pct1p and other yeast RNA triphosphatases are completely unrelated, mechanistically and structurally, to the metazoan RNA triphosphatases, suggesting an abrupt evolutionary divergence of the capping apparatus during the transition from fungal to metazoan species.

RNA surveillance by uridylation-dependent RNA decay in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:Uridylation-dependent RNA decay is a widespread eukaryotic pathway modulating RNA homeostasis. Terminal uridylyltransferases (Tutases) add untemplated uridyl residues to RNA 3'-ends, marking them for degradation by the U-specific exonuclease Dis3L2. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Cid1 uridylates a variety of RNAs. In this study, we investigate the prevalence and impact of uridylation-dependent RNA decay in S. pombe by transcriptionally profiling cid1 and dis3L2 deletion strains. We found that the exonuclease Dis3L2 represents a bottleneck in uridylation-dependent mRNA decay, whereas Cid1 plays a redundant role that can be complemented by other Tutases. Deletion of dis3L2 elicits a cellular stress response, upregulating transcription of genes involved in protein folding and degradation. Misfolded proteins accumulate in both deletion strains, yet only trigger a strong stress response in dis3L2 deficient cells. While a deletion of cid1 increases sensitivity to protein misfolding stress, a dis3L2 deletion showed no increased sensitivity or was even protective. We furthermore show that uridylyl- and adenylyltransferases cooperate to generate a 5'-NxAUUAAAA-3' RNA motif on dak2 mRNA. Our studies elucidate the role of uridylation-dependent RNA decay as part of a global mRNA surveillance, and we found that perturbation of this pathway leads to the accumulation of misfolded proteins and elicits cellular stress responses.

Sck1 negatively regulates Gpa2-mediated glucose signaling in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:Schizosaccharomyces pombe detects extracellular glucose via a G protein-mediated cyclic AMP (cAMP)-signaling pathway activating protein kinase A (PKA) and regulating transcription of genes involved in metabolism and sexual development. In this pathway, Gpa2 Gα binds to and activates adenylyl cyclase in response to glucose detection by the Git3 G protein-coupled receptor. Using a two-hybrid screen to identify extrinsic regulators of Gpa2, we isolated a clone that expresses codons 471 to 696 of the Sck1 kinase, which appears to display a higher affinity for Gpa2(K270E)-activated Gα relative to Gpa2(+) Gα. Deletion of sck1(+) or mutational inactivation of the Sck1 kinase produces phenotypes reflecting increased PKA activity in strains expressing Gpa2(+) or Gpa2(K270E), suggesting that Sck1 negatively regulates PKA activation through Gpa2. In contrast to the Gpa2(K270E) GDP-GTP exchange rate mutant, GTPase-defective Gpa2(R176H) weakly binds Sck1 in the two-hybrid screen and a deletion of sck1(+) in a Gpa2(R176H) strain confers phenotypes consistent with a slight reduction in PKA activity. Finally, deleting sck1(+) in a gpa2Δ strain results in phenotypes consistent with a second role for Sck1 acting in parallel with PKA. In addition to this parallel role with PKA, our data suggest that Sck1 negatively regulates Gpa2, possibly targeting the nucleotide-free form of the protein that may expose the one and only AKT/PKB consensus site in Gpa2 for Sck1 to bind. This dual role for Sck1 may allow S. pombe to produce distinct biological responses to glucose and nitrogen starvation signals that both activate the Wis1-Spc1/StyI stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathway.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hsp90/Git10 is required for glucose/cAMP signaling.

Project description:The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe senses environmental glucose through a cAMP-signaling pathway. Elevated cAMP levels activate protein kinase A (PKA) to inhibit transcription of genes involved in sexual development and gluconeogenesis, including the fbp1(+) gene, which encodes fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. Glucose-mediated activation of PKA requires the function of nine glucose-insensitive transcription (git) genes, encoding adenylate cyclase, the PKA catalytic subunit, and seven "upstream" proteins required for glucose-triggered adenylate cyclase activation. We describe the cloning and characterization of the git10(+) gene, which is identical to swo1(+) and encodes the S. pombe Hsp90 chaperone protein. Glucose repression of fbp1(+) transcription is impaired by both git10(-) and swo1(-) mutant alleles of the hsp90(+) gene, as well as by chemical inhibition of Hsp90 activity and temperature stress to wild-type cells. Unlike the swo1(-) mutant alleles, the git10-201 allele supports cell growth at 37 degrees , while severely reducing glucose repression of an fbp1-lacZ reporter, suggesting a separation-of-function defect. Sequence analyses of three swo1(-) alleles and the one git10(-) allele indicate that swo1(-) mutations alter core functional domains of Hsp90, while the git10(-) mutation affects the Hsp90 central domain involved in client protein binding. These results suggest that Hsp90 plays a specific role in the S. pombe glucose/cAMP pathway.

The cell cycle-regulated genes of Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:Many genes are regulated as an innate part of the eukaryotic cell cycle, and a complex transcriptional network helps enable the cyclic behavior of dividing cells. This transcriptional network has been studied in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (budding yeast) and elsewhere. To provide more perspective on these regulatory mechanisms, we have used microarrays to measure gene expression through the cell cycle of Schizosaccharomyces pombe (fission yeast). The 750 genes with the most significant oscillations were identified and analyzed. There were two broad waves of cell cycle transcription, one in early/mid G2 phase, and the other near the G2/M transition. The early/mid G2 wave included many genes involved in ribosome biogenesis, possibly explaining the cell cycle oscillation in protein synthesis in S. pombe. The G2/M wave included at least three distinctly regulated clusters of genes: one large cluster including mitosis, mitotic exit, and cell separation functions, one small cluster dedicated to DNA replication, and another small cluster dedicated to cytokinesis and division. S. pombe cell cycle genes have relatively long, complex promoters containing groups of multiple DNA sequence motifs, often of two, three, or more different kinds. Many of the genes, transcription factors, and regulatory mechanisms are conserved between S. pombe and S. cerevisiae. Finally, we found preliminary evidence for a nearly genome-wide oscillation in gene expression: 2,000 or more genes undergo slight oscillations in expression as a function of the cell cycle, although whether this is adaptive, or incidental to other events in the cell, such as chromatin condensation, we do not know.

Determinants of RNA metabolism in the Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome.

Project description:To decrypt the regulatory code of the genome, sequence elements must be defined that determine the kinetics of RNA metabolism and thus gene expression. Here, we attempt such decryption in an eukaryotic model organism, the fission yeast S. pombe. We first derive an improved genome annotation that redefines borders of 36% of expressed mRNAs and adds 487 non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). We then combine RNA labeling in vivo with mathematical modeling to obtain rates of RNA synthesis and degradation for 5,484 expressed RNAs and splicing rates for 4,958 introns. We identify functional sequence elements in DNA and RNA that control RNA metabolic rates and quantify the contributions of individual nucleotides to RNA synthesis, splicing, and degradation. Our approach reveals distinct kinetics of mRNA and ncRNA metabolism, separates antisense regulation by transcription interference from RNA interference, and provides a general tool for studying the regulatory code of genomes.
