Project description:Hypoxia promotes an aggressive tumor phenotype with increased genomic instability, partially due to downregulation of DNA repair pathways. However, in addition to DNA repair, genome stability is also controlled by cell cycle checkpoints. An important issue is therefore whether hypoxia also can alter the DNA damage cell cycle checkpoints. Here, we show that hypoxia (24h 0.2% O2) alters the expression of several G2 checkpoint regulators, as examined by microarray gene expression analysis and immunoblotting of U2OS cells. While some of the changes reflected hypoxia-induced inhibition of cell cycle progression, flow cytometric bar-coding analysis of individual cells showed that the levels of several G2 checkpoint regulators were reduced in G2 phase cells after hypoxic exposure, in particular cyclin B1. These effects were accompanied by decreased Cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) activity in G2 phase cells after hypoxia. Furthermore, cells pre-exposed to hypoxia showed a longer G2 checkpoint arrest upon treatment with ionizing radiation. Similar results were found following other hypoxic conditions (~0.03 % O2 20h and 0.2% O2 72h). These results demonstrate that the DNA damage G2 checkpoint can be altered as a consequence of hypoxia, and we propose that such alterations may influence the genome stability of hypoxic tumors. We measured gene expression changes in U2OS cells after treatment with 0.2% hypoxia for 24 hours. The data were used in the exploration of hyopxia induced alterations in the G2 checkpoint.

Project description:Differentiation from asexual blood stages to sexual gametocytes is required for transmission of malaria parasites from the human to the mosquito host. Preventing gametocyte commitment and development would block parasite transmission, but the underlying molecular mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Here, we report that the ApiAP2 transcription factor, PfAP2-G2 (PF3D7_1408200) plays a critical role in the maturation of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes. PfAP2-G2 binds to the promoters of a wide array of genes that are expressed at many stages of the parasite life cycle. Interestingly, we also find binding of PfAP2-G2 within the gene body of almost 3000 genes, which strongly correlates with the location of H3K36me3 and several other histone modifications as well as Heterochromatin Protein 1 (HP1), suggesting that occupancy of PfAP2-G2 in gene bodies may serve as an alternative regulatory mechanism. Disruption of pfap2-g2 does not impact asexual development, parasite multiplication rate, or commitment to sexual development but the majority of sexual parasites are unable to mature beyond stage III gametocytes. The absence of pfap2-g2 leads to overexpression of 28% of the genes bound by PfAP2-G2 and none of the PfAP2-g2 bound are downregulated, suggesting that it is a repressor. We also find that PfAP2-G2 interacts with chromatin remodeling proteins, a microrchidia (MORC) protein, and another ApiAP2 protein (PF3D7_1139300). Overall our data demonstrate that PfAP2-G2 is an important transcription factor that establishes an essential gametocyte maturation program in association with other chromatin-related proteins.
