BHLH-PAS protein RITMO1 regulates diel biological rhythms in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

ABSTRACT: Periodic light–dark cycles govern the timing of basic biological processes in organisms inhabiting land as well as the sea, where life evolved. Although prominent marine phytoplanktonic organisms such as diatoms show robust diel rhythms, the mechanisms regulating these processes are still obscure. By characterizing a Phaeodactylum tricornutum bHLH-PAS nuclear protein, hereby named RITMO1, we shed light on the regulation of the daily life of diatoms. Alteration of RITMO1 expression levels and timing by ectopic overexpression results in lines with deregulated diurnal gene expression profiles compared with the wild-type cells. Reduced gene expression oscillations are also observed in these lines in continuous darkness, showing that the regulation of rhythmicity by RITMO1 is not directly dependent on light inputs. We also describe strong diurnal rhythms of cellular fluorescence in wild-type cells, which persist in continuous light conditions, indicating the existence of an endogenous circadian clock in diatoms. The altered rhythmicity observed in RITMO1 overexpression lines in continuous light supports the involvement of this protein in circadian rhythm regulation. Phylogenetic analysis reveals a wide distribution of RITMO1-like proteins in the genomes of diatoms as well as in other marine algae, which may indicate a common function in these phototrophs. This study adds elements to our understanding of diatom biology and offers perspectives to elucidate timekeeping mechanisms in marine organisms belonging to a major, but under-investigated, branch of the tree of life.

Transcription profiling of Arabidopsis seedlings grown under thermocycles and/or photocycles or continuous conditions

Project description:In most organisms biological processes are partitioned, or phased to specific times over the day through interactions between external cycles of temperature (thermocycles) and light (photocycles), and the endogenous circadian clock. This orchestration of biological activities is achieved in part through an underlying transcriptional network. To understand how thermocycles, photocycles and the circadian clock interact to control time of day specific transcript abundance in Arabidopsis thaliana, we conducted four diurnal and three circadian two-day time courses using Affymetrix GeneChips (ATH1). All time courses were carried out with seven-day-old seedlings grown on agar plates under thermocycles (HC, hot/cold) and/or photocycles (LD, light/dark), or continuous conditions (LL, continuous light; DD, continuous dark, HH, continuous hot). Whole seedlings (50-100), including roots, stems and leaves were collected every four hours and frozen in liquid nitrogen. The four time courses interrogating the interaction between thermocycles, photocycles and the circadian clock were carried out as two four-day time courses. Four-day time courses were divided into two days under diurnal conditions, and two days under circadian conditions of continuous light and temperature. Thermocycles of 12 hours at 22C (hot) and 12 hours at 12C (cold) were used in this study. The two time courses interrogating photoperiod were conducted under short days (8 hrs light and 16 hrs dark) or long days (16 hrs light and 8 hrs dark) under constant temperature. In addition, the photoperiod time courses were in the Landsberg erecta (ler) accession, in contrast to the other time courses that are in the Columbia (col) background. The final time course interrogated circadian rhythmicity in seedlings grown completely in the dark (etiolated). Dark grown seedlings were synchronized with thermocycles, and plants were sampled under the circadian conditions of continuous dark and temperature.

The intestinal microbiota programs diurnal rhythms in host metabolism through histone deacetylase 3

Project description:Circadian rhythmicity is a defining feature of mammalian metabolism that synchronizes metabolic processes to day-night light cycles. Here, we show that the intestinal microbiota programs diurnal metabolic rhythms in the mouse small intestine through histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3). The microbiota induced expression of intestinal epithelial HDAC3, which was recruited rhythmically to chromatin and produced synchronized diurnal oscillations in histone acetylation, metabolic gene expression, and nutrient uptake. HDAC3 also functioned non-canonically to coactivate estrogen related receptor a (ERRa), inducing microbiota-dependent rhythmic transcription of the lipid transporter gene Cd36 and promoting lipid absorption and diet-induced obesity. Our findings reveal that HDAC3 integrates microbial and circadian cues to regulate diurnal metabolic rhythms, and pinpoint a key mechanism by which the microbiota controls host metabolism.

Unveiling Seasonal Adaptive Molecular Mechanisms in Marine Phytoplankton during Diel Cycles through Multiomics Integration

Project description:Earth tilted rotation and translation around the Sun produce one of the most pervasive rhythms on our planet, giving rise to seasonal variations in diel cycles. Although marine phytoplankton plays a key role on ecosystems, multiomics analysis of its response to these periodic environmental signals remains largely unexplored. The marine picoalga Ostreococcus tauri, which resides at the base of the green lineage, has been chosen as model organism due to its high abundance in marine phytoplankton and its cellular and genomic simplicity, making it the smallest free living eukaryote. Ostreococcus was subjected to different light regimes: summer long days, winter short days, constant light and constant dark conditions, to investigate these responses. Although 80% of the transcriptome presented diel rhythmicity, less than 5% maintained oscillations under constant conditions. A drastic reduction in proteome rhythmicity was observed with 55% of the proteins oscillating. Seasonal specific rhythms were found for key physiological processes such as cell cycle, photosynthesis, carotenoid biosynthesis, starch accumulation and nitrate assimilation. In this study, a global orchestration between transcriptome, proteome and physiological dynamics was characterised identifying specific seasonal temporal offsets between peaks in transcripts, proteins, and physiological responses.

Light-sensing via H2O2 and a peroxiredoxin

Project description:Light controls control a vast array of biological processes, including cell and organelle motility, stress responses, organismal development and the entrainment of circadian rhythms, that maintain diurnal cycles of activity in organisms from cyanobacteria to humans. Recent studies indicate that a type of antioxidant and signaling proteins, peroxiredoxins, sustain circadian rhythms independent of characterized circadian pacemakers in organisms from all the three kingdoms of life, suggesting a role for H2O2 production in circadian clocks. Whereas many circadian clocks involve photosensitive pigments such as melanopsin and cryptochromes it is unclear whether peroxiredoxins can respond to light stimuli and how they interact with global signaling networks regulating e.g. clocks and aging, such as cyclic AMP (cAMP)/protein kinase A (PKA). In yeast, that lacks decidated photoreceptors, blue light induces cAMP-PKA-dependent, nuclear accumulation of a transcription factor, Msn2. However, the mechanism by which light represses pathway activity to stimulate Msn2 nuclear translocation is unknown. Here we identify increased H2O2–production via a conserved peroxisomal oxidase as the cause of light-induced Msn2 nuclear concentration. The H2O2 signal is transduced by the catalytic cysteines of the peroxiredoxin Tsa1 that relieve Msn2 from inhibitory PKA phosphorylation causing its nuclear accumulation. We propose that yeast senses light via H2O2 and a peroxiredoxin to inhibit cAMP/PKA activity and our data form a framework for the study of light responses in cells lacking dedicated light receptors and cAMP-controlled biological rhythms in multicellular organisms.

Comparative rhythmic transcriptome profiling of human and mouse striatal subregions

Project description:The human striatum can be subdivided into the caudate, putamen, and nucleus accumbens (NAc). In mice, this roughly corresponds to the dorsal medial striatum (DMS), dorsal lateral striatum (DLS), and ventral striatum (NAc). Each of these structures have some overlapping and distinct functions related to motor control, cognitive processing, motivation, and reward. Previously, we used a “time-of-death” approach to identify diurnal rhythms in RNA transcripts in these three human striatal subregions. Here, we identify molecular rhythms across similar striatal subregions collected from C57BL/6J mice across 6 times of day and compare results to the human striatum. Pathway analysis indicates a large degree of overlap between species in rhythmic transcripts involved in processes like cellular stress, energy metabolism, and translation. Notably, a striking finding in humans is that small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are among the most highly rhythmic transcripts in the NAc and this is not conserved in mice, suggesting the rhythmicity of RNA processing in this region could be uniquely human. Furthermore, the peak timing of overlapping rhythmic genes is altered between species, but not consistently in one direction. Taken together, these studies reveal conserved as well as distinct transcriptome rhythms across the human and mouse striatum and are an important step in understanding the normal function of diurnal rhythms in humans and model organisms in these regions and how disruption could lead to pathology.

Circadian clock-dependent and -independent rhythmic proteomes implement distinct diurnal functions in mouse liver.

Project description:Diurnal oscillations of gene expression controlled by the circadian clock underlie rhythmic physiology across most living organisms. Although such rhythms have been extensively studied at the level of transcription and mRNA accumulation, little is known about the accumulation patterns of proteins. Here, we quantified temporal profiles in the murine hepatic proteome under physiological light–dark conditions using stable isotope labeling by amino acids quantitative MS. To measure the daily accumulation of proteins, we designed an SILAC MS experiment, in which total protein extracts were harvested from C57BL/6J mice every 3 h for 2 d (eight samples per day). Relative protein abundance in each of 16 samples was quantified against a common reference sample labeled using the SILAC method. The generated mass spectra allowed the identification of a total of 5,827 distinct proteins, of which 70% yielded relative measurements in at least 8 of 16 samples. Our analysis identified over 5,000 proteins, of which several hundred showed robust diurnal oscillations with peak phases enriched in the morning and during the night and related to core hepatic physiological functions. Combined mathematical modeling of temporal protein and mRNA profiles indicated that proteins accumulate with reduced amplitudes and significant delays, consistent with protein half-life data. Moreover, a group comprising about one-half of the rhythmic proteins showed no corresponding rhythmic mRNAs, indicating significant translational or posttranslational diurnal control. Such rhythms were highly enriched in secreted proteins accumulating tightly during the night. Also, these rhythms persisted in clock-deficient animals subjected to rhythmic feeding, suggesting that food-related entrainment signals influence rhythms in circulating plasma factors

Conservation of primordial ~12-hour ultradian gene programs in humans

Project description:Biological rhythms have important implications for human disease, as evidenced by the effects of disrupting the 24h circadian clock. While circadian rhythms are entrained to the once daily light-dark cycle of the sun, coastal marine organisms are known to exhibit 12h ultradian rhythms, corresponding to the twice daily movement of the tides. Human ancestors emerged from a circa-tidal environment millions of years ago. However, whether 12h ultradian rhythms are conserved in humans remains unknown. Here, we performed prospective, high temporal resolution transcriptome profiling in the peripheral white blood cells of three healthy subjects. Remarkably, all three subjects exhibited a shared transcriptional program demonstrating robust ~12h rhythms. Pathway analysis implicated 12h transcriptional oscillations primarily affected core cellular processes, including RNA and protein metabolism, with strong homology to the 12h gene programs previously identified in cnidarian marine species. These results establish the existence of 12h biological rhythms in humans. Such rhythms appear to have a primordial evolutionary origin dating back at least 700 million years and are likely to have far-reaching implications in human health and disease.

Diurnal control of iron responsive element containing mRNAs through iron regulatory proteins IRP1 and IRP2 is mediated by feeding rhythms

Project description:Background: Cellular iron homeostasis is regulated by iron regulatory proteins (IRP1 and IRP2) that sense iron levels (and other metabolic cues) and modulate mRNA translation or stability via interaction with iron regulatory elements (IREs). IRP2 is viewed as the primary regulator in liver, yet our previous datasets showing diurnal rhythms for certain IRE-containing mRNAs suggest a nuanced temporal control mechanism. The purpose of this study is to gain insights into the daily regulatory dynamics across IRE-bearing mRNAs, specific IRP involvement, and underlying systemic and cellular rhythmicity cues in mouse liver. Results: We uncover high-amplitude diurnal oscillations in the regulation of key IRE containing transcripts in liver, compatible with maximal IRP activity at the onset of the dark phase. Although IRP2 protein levels also exhibit some diurnal variations and peak at the light-dark transition, ribosome profiling in IRP2-deficient mice reveals that maximal repression of target mRNAs at this time-point still occurs. We further find that diurnal regulation of IRE-containing mRNAs can continue in the absence of a functional circadian clock as long as feeding is rhythmic. Conclusions: Our findings suggest temporally controlled redundancy in IRP activities, with IRP2 mediating regulation of IRE-containing transcripts in the light phase and redundancy, conceivably with IRP1, at dark onset. Moreover, we highlight the significance of feeding-associated signals in driving rhythmicity. Our work highlights the dynamic nature and regulatory complexity in a metabolic pathway that had previously been considered well-understood.

Hepatocyte SREBP signaling mediates clock communication within the liver [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Rhythmic intraorgan communication coordinates environmental signals and cell-intrinsic clock to maintain organ homeostasis. Hepatocyte-specific knockout of core components of the molecular clock, Rev-erba and b (ReverbhDKO), alters cholesterol and lipid metabolism in hepatocytes as well as rhythmic gene expression in non-parenchymal cells (NPC) of the liver. Here we report that in diet induced obesity (DIO)-caused fatty liver, hepatocyte SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) is required for ReverbhDKO-induced diurnal rhythmic remodeling and epigenomic reprogramming in Kupffer cells (KC). Integrative analyses of isolated hepatocytes and Kupffer cells uncovered potential signals, including secreted polypeptides and metabolites, that gain rhythmicity in the absence of REV-ERBs in a SCAP-dependent manner. These results shed light on the signaling mechanisms by which hepatocytes regulate diurnal rhythms in NPCs in DIO and fatty liver disease.
