Project description:The somatic macronucleus (MAC) and germline micronucleus (MIC) of Tetrahymena thermophila differ in chromosome numbers, sizes, functions, transcriptional activities, and cohesin complex location. However, the higher-order chromatin organization in T. thermophila which contains both cohesin free MAC and cohesin located MIC are largely unknown. Here, we examined the higher-order chromatin organization in the two distinct nuclei of T. thermophila using the Hi-C and HiChIP. Interestingly, we found that the crescent MIC possess specific chromosome interaction pattern. All the telomeres or centromeres on the five MIC chromosomes clustering together, respectively, which could help to identify the midpoints of centromeres in the MIC. We found the transcriptionally active MAC chromosomes lack A/B compartments, topologically associating domains (TADs) and chromatin loops. The transcriptionally inert MIC chromosomes also without A/B compartments and chromatin loops, but have TAD-like structures. The boundaries of the TAD-like structures in the MIC were highly consistent with the chromatin breakage sequence (CBS) sites, suggesting that each TAD-like structure of the MIC chromosomes develops into one MAC chromosome during MAC development during conjugation. Overall, we revealed the higher-order chromatin organization in the T. thermophila and found the chromatin structures might play important roles during the development of the MAC chromosomes.

Project description:Background. Most methods for constructing aneuploid yeast strains that have gained a specific chromosome rely on spontaneous failures of cell division fidelity. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, extra chromosomes can be obtained when errors in meiosis or mitosis lead to nondisjunction, or when nuclear breakdown occurs in heterokaryons. We describe a strategy for constructing N+1 disomes that does not require such spontaneous failures. The method combines two well-characterized genetic tools: a conditional centromere that transiently blocks disjunction of one specific chromosome, and a duplication marker assay that identifies disomes among daughter cells. To test the strategy, we targeted chromosomes III, IV, and VI for duplication. Results. The centromere of each target chromosome was replaced by a conditional centromere that can be blocked by growth in galactose, and ura3::HIS3, a duplication marker. Transient exposure to galactose induced the appearance of colonies carrying duplicated markers for chromosomes III or IV, but not VI. Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) confirmed that disomic strains carrying extra chromosome III or IV were generated. Chromosome VI contains several genes known to be deleterious when overexpressed, including the beta-tubulin gene TUB2. To test whether a tubulin stoichiometry imbalance prevents viability in cells carrying an extra chromosome VI, we supplied the parent strain with extra copies of the alpha-tubulin gene TUB1, then induced nondisjunction. Galactose-dependent chromosome VI disomes were produced, as revealed by CGH. Some chromosome VI disomes also carried extra, unselected copies of additional chromosomes. Conclusions. This method causes efficient nondisjunction of a targeted chromosome and allows resulting disomic cells to be identified and maintained. We used the method to test the role of tubulin imbalance in the apparent lethality of disomic chromosome VI. Our results indicate that a tubulin imbalance is necessary for disomic VI lethality, but it may not be the only dosage-dependent effect. Keywords: comparative genomic hybridization, CGH

Project description:Near-haploid chromosome numbers have been found in less than 1% of cytogenetically reported tumors, but seem to be more common in certain neoplasms including the malignant cartilage-producing tumor chondrosarcoma. By a literature survey of published karyotypes from chondrosarcomas we could confirm that loss of chromosomes resulting in hyperhaploid-hypodiploid cells is common and that these cells may polyploidize. Sixteen chondrosarcomas were investigated by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and the majority displayed SNP patterns indicative of a hyperhaploid-hypodiploid origin, with or without subsequent polyploidization. Except for chromosomes 5, 7, 19, 20 and 21, autosomal loss of heterozygosity was commonly found, resulting from chromosome loss and subsequent duplication of monosomic chromosomes giving rise to uniparental disomy. Additional gains, losses and rearrangements of genetic material, and even repeated rounds of polyploidization, may affect chondrosarcoma cells resulting in highly complex karyotypes. Loss of chromosomes and subsequent polyploidization was not restricted to a particular chondrosarcoma subtype and, although commonly found in chondrosarcoma, binucleated cells did not seem to be involved in these events. Tumor DNA was hybridized onto Illumina Human Omni-Quad v1.0 BeadChip or Human CNV370-Quad v3.0 BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA), following standard protocols supplied by the manufacturer. Data were extracted from the GenomeStudio software (Illumina), and subsequently normalized and segmented using thresholded quantile normalization (tQN) and BAFsegmentation, respectively (Staaf et al. Normalization of array-CGH data: influence of copy number imbalances. BMC Genomics 2007, 8:382; Staaf et al. Segmentation-based detection of allelic imbalance and loss-of-heterozygosity in cancer cells using whole genome SNP arrays. Genome Biol 2008, 9:R136). Base pair positions are indicated according to the NCBI build 36 (hg18).

Project description:Aneuploidy, an incorrect chromosome number, is the leading cause of miscarriages and mental retardation in humans and is a hallmark of cancer. We examined the effects of aneuploidy on primary mouse cells by generating a series of cell lines that carry an extra copy of one of four mouse chromosomes. In all four trisomic lines proliferation was impaired and metabolic properties were altered. Immortalization, the acquisition of the ability to proliferate indefinitely, was also affected by the presence of an additional chromosome, with some chromosomes inhibiting immortalization while others accelerating the process. Our data indicate that aneuploidy decreases not only organismal but also cellular fitness and elicits traits that are shared between different aneuploid cells. Keywords: cell type comparison

Project description:Replication of bacterial chromosomes increases the copy numbers of genes located near the origin of replication relative to genes located near the terminus. Such differential gene dosage is variable and depends on several factors including replication rate, generation time and chromosome size. For vibrios, a diverse family of fast growing marine living gammaproteobacteria, gene dosage effects may be particularly important as they harbour their genome within two differently sized chromosomes. In this series of experiments, gene dosage at the genomic level and its influence on the expression level has been examined in V. parahaemolyticus. For the genomic analyses, gene copy numbers for bacteria in mid-logarithmic phase grown in rich media (Luria-Bertani containing 3% (w/v) NaCl) at two temperatures (37°C or 20°C) or in minimal media (M9 containing 3% (w/v) NaCl and 0.4% (w/v) glucose) were compared against gene copy numbers for non-replicating cells. For expression analyses, cDNA derived from bacteria in mid-logarithmic phase grown in rich broth at two temperatures (37°C or 20°C) or in minimal media were compared against gDNA from non-replicating cells. Also, cDNA derived from early (OD600=0.2) or mid-logarithmic phase bacteria (OD600=0.5) in rich broth at 37°C, were compared against cDNA derived from mid-logarithmic cells in minimal media (OD600=0.5) or cDNA from early stationary phase rich broth cells (OD600=3.0).

Project description:Chromosome conformation capture (3C) technologies have identified topologically associating domains (TADs) and larger A/B compartments as two salient structural features of eukaryotic chromosomes. These structures are sculpted by the combined actions of transcription and structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) superfamily proteins. Bacterial chromosomes fold into TAD-like chromosomal interaction domains (CIDs) but do not display A/B compartment-type organization. Here, we reveal that chromosomes of Sulfolobus archaea are organized into CID-like topological domains in addition to the larger A/B compartment-type structures that we described recently. We uncover local rules governing the identity of the topological domains. We also identify long-range loop structures which provide evidence of a hub-like structure that colocalizes genes involved in ribosome biogenesis. In addition to providing high resolution description of archaeal chromosome architectures, our data provide evidence for multiple modes of organization in prokaryotic chromosomes and yield novel insight into the evolution of eukaryotic chromosome conformation.
