The genome-scale binding profile of the CCAAT-binding complex in Aspergillus fumigatus

ABSTRACT: The CCAAT-binding complex (CBC) is a heterotrimetric transcription factor conserved in all eukaryotes. The CBC specifically interacts with the pentanucleotide motif known as the CCAAT box, which is one of the most ubiquitous cis-acting elements on the eukaryotic promoters. In Aspergillus fumigatus, the CBC consists of three subunits HapB, HapC, and HapE, which are all required for specific binding to the target sequences. This regulatory complex has been shown to be involved in the regulation of a wide range of cellular processes, including primary and secondary metabolism, iron homeostasis, as well as azole drug resistance and virulence in mammalian hosts. In this study, we investigated the genome-wide binding profile of the CBC using the chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). We identified over 1,000 peak regions, which showed more than 5-fold enrichment compared to the input control in steady-state iron-replete (+Fe) and iron-starvation (-Fe) conditions. Bioinformatic analysis of the peak regions revealed the 5’-CSAATVR-3’ sequence as the most enriched nucleotide motif, suggesting that this motif acts as the consensus binding sequence for the CBC in vivo.

The fungal CCAAT-binding complex and HapX display highly variable but evolutionary conserved synergetic promoter-specific DNA recognition

Project description:To sustain iron homeostasis, microorganisms have evolved fine-tuned mechanisms for uptake, storage and detoxification of the essential metal iron. In the human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, the fungal-specific bZIP-type transcription factor HapX coordinates adaption to both iron starvation and iron excess and is thereby crucial for virulence. Previous studies indicated that a HapX homodimer interacts with the CCAAT-binding complex (CBC) to cooperatively bind bipartite DNA motifs; however, the significance of the HapX and CBC interaction and the mode of HapX-DNA recognition had not been resolved. In this study, we characterized the genome-wide binding profiles of HapX using the chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). Our ChIP-seq results, in combination with in vitro surface plasmon resonance analysis, phylogenetic comparison, and genetic analysis, revealed an astonishing plasticity of the CBC:HapX DNA-recognition mode.

IscR of Rhodobacter sphaeroides functions as repressor of genes for iron-sulphur metabolism and represents a new type of iron-sulphur binding protein

Project description:Iron-sulphur (Fe-S) clusters are ensembles of iron and sulphide centres. They are found in all life forms and are important components of many enzymes involved in diverse cellular processes, including respiration, DNA synthesis or gene regulation. However, the increase in oxygen after the emergence of oxygenic photosynthesis created a threat to Fe–S proteins and, consequently, to the organisms relying on them. Therefore, bacteria have evolved mechanisms to maintain a precise intracellular iron concentration. A major role of IscR in R. sphaeroides iron dependent regulation was suggested in a bioinformatic study , which predicted a binding site in the upstream regions of several iron uptake genes. Most known IscR proteins have Fe-S clusters featuring (Cys)3(His)1 ligation. However, IscR proteins from Rhodobacteraceae harbour only one Cys residue and it was considered unlikely that they can ligate an Fe-S cluster. In this study, the role of R. sphaeroides IscR as transcriptional regulator and sensor of the Fe-S cluster status of the cell was analysed. The results provide evidence that R. sphaeroides IscR functions as transcriptional repressor of genes involved in iron metabolism by binding to the predicted DNA binding motif. Furthermore, IscR possesses a unique Fe-S cluster ligation scheme with only a single cysteine involved.

Cooperation of two mRNA-binding proteins drives metabolic adaptation to iron deficiency

Project description:Expression of the yeast Cth2 protein stimulates degradation of mRNAs encoding proteins with Fe-dependent functions in metabolism, in iron storage and in other cellular processes. We demonstrate that in response to Fe deprivation, the Cth2-homologue, Cth1, stimulates specific degradation of mRNAs involved in mitochondrially localized activities that include respiration and amino acid biosynthesis. Furthermore, yeast cells grown under Fe deprivation accumulate mRNAs encoding proteins that function in glucose metabolism. These studies demonstrate a reprogramming of cellular metabolism during Fe-starvation dependent on the coordinated activities of two mRNA binding proteins. Keywords: Messenger RNAs down regulated by Cth1 and Cth2 proteins in response to Fe-limitation
