Project description:Significant insight about biological networks arises from the study of network motifs âoverly abundant network subgraphs, but such wiring patterns do not specify when and how potential routes within a cellular network are used. To address this limitation, we introduce activity motifs, which capture patterns in the dynamic use of a network. Using this framework to analyze transcription in Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism, we find that cells use different timing activity motifs to optimize transcription timing in response to changing conditions: forward activation to produce metabolic compounds efficiently, backward shutoff to rapidly stop production of a detrimental product and synchronized activation for co-production of metabolites required for the same reaction Measuring protein abundance over a time course reveals that mRNA timing motifs also occur at the protein level. Timing motifs significantly overlap with binding activity motifs, where genes in a linear chain have ordered binding affinity to a transcription factor, suggesting a mechanism for ordered transcription. Finely timed transcriptional regulation is therefore abundant in yeast metabolism, optimizing the organism's adaptation to new environmental conditions. We generated a set of 13 time courses by measuring gene expression after a metabolic change. Yeast strain KCN118 (MATalpha ade2) was grown at 28 °C in 400 ml of synthetic complete media with 2% dextrose (SCD) to an OD600 of 0.6. Synthetic complete was prepared using the standard recipe, except 75 uM inositol was included. At OD600 of 0.6, 100 ml of cells were collected by centrifugation and frozen as a reference sample, and the remaining cells were rapidly collected by filtration, washed with distilled water and resuspended in 300 ml of one of the following media: SCE (SC + 2% ethanol), SCG (SC + 2% galactose), SM1 (SCD lacking amino acids A, R, N, C, Q, G, K, P, S, F and T), SM2 (SCD lacking amino acids L, I, V, W, H and M), S0 (SCD lacking all amino acids), S0G (no amino acids, 2% galactose) or S0E (no amino acids, 2% ethanol). The data appears in Figures 2 and 4 of the manuscript, as it relates to the global analysis of all the arrays used in the dataset. All time courses consist of the following time points (in min): 15, 30, 60, 120, 240, and were hybridized against the t = 0 time point of cells grown in SCD. Each time course was performed as one single biological replicate and one technological replicate, except where noted below. Specifically, the 13 time courses break down into the following groups: Media key: SCD (synthetic complete, not including inositol) SCE (SC + 2% ethanol) SCG (SC + 2% galactose) SM1 (SCD lacking amino acids A, R, N, C, Q, G, K, P, S, F and T) SM2 (SCD lacking amino acids L, I, V, W, H and M) S0 (SCD lacking all amino acids) S0G (no amino acids, 2% galactose) S0E (no amino acids, 2% ethanol). ino = inositol aa = all amino acids supplemented The following group descriptions are the media as described above, followed by the description as indicated in the long title of the individual arrays: 1. S0 (5 arrays) = SD 2. SCD (6 arrays, t = 240 min has 2 tech replicates) = SD+aa 3. SM2 (5 arrays) = SD+aa:ARNCQGKPSDEFTY+ino 4. SM1 + ino (5 arrays) = SD+aa:LIVWHM+ino 5. S0 + ino (6 arrays, t = 240 min has 2 tech replicates) = SD+ino 6. S0E (5 arrays) = SEtOH 7. S0E + aa (7 arrays, t = 240 min and 60 min each have 2 tech replicates) = SEtOH+aa 8. S0E + aa + ino (5 arrays) = SEtOH+aa+ino 9. S0E + ino (8 arrays, t = 240 min, 15 min and 30 min each have 2 tech replicates) = SEtOH+ino 10. S0G (5 arrays) = Sgal 11. S0G + aa (5 arrays) = Sgal+aa 12. S0G + aa + ino (5 arrays) = Sgal+aa+ino 13. S0G + ino (6 arrays, t = 60 min has 2 tech replicates) = Sgal+ino

Project description:In the quantitative model for cell cycle control, progression from G1 through S phase and into mitosis is ordered by thresholds of increasing cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) activity. How such thresholds are read out by substrates, that respond with the correct phosphorylation timing, if not known. In budding yeast, Cdk phosphorylates its many substrates with widely varying efficiencies, but there is no obvious correlation between phosphorylation efficiency and timing. Instead, we explore here whether Cdk-counteracting phosphatases impose Cdk thresholds. We find that the abundant PP2ACdc55 phosphatase counteracts Cdk phosphorylation in interphase and delays phosphorylation of late Cdk substrates, an effect that is independent of its known impact on the Cdk tyrosine phosphorylation status. Strikingly, PP2ACdc55 specifically counteracts phosphorylation of threonine residues. Consequently, we find that threonine-directed phosphorylation occurs late in the cell cycle, compared to serine phosphorylation. Late phosphorylation of Ndd1, a model substrate, depends on threonine identity. Our results support a model in which phosphatases contribute to ordering cell cycle progression by directly counteracting Cdk phosphorylation and unveil a principle of cell cycle control based on the phosphoacceptor amino acid.

Project description:Mouse ESCs and EpiSCs represent naive and primed states of plurioptency corresponding to two consecutive stages of embryo development. Here we map their chromatin accessibility landscapes and show that naive specific open chromatin are enriched with motifs for Oct/Sox/Klf/TCF and primed one with AP1 motifs. The AP1 founding member c-Jun is expressed in EpiSCs and occupies both open and closed chromatin. Yet, c-Jun deficiency has no impact on the self renewal nor the transcription program of EpiSCs. However, in a Klf4-driven reprogramming system, we show that c- Jun-/- EpiSCs undergo primed to naive transition more efficiently than wild type cells and Klf4 evicts c-JUN from wild type chromatin. These results suggest that c-Jun is a pioneer factor not to regulate transcription but to prevent backward reprogramming during naive-primed transition, thus providing a molecular basis for the forward principle in development.

Project description:Correct and efficient folding of nascent proteins to their native state requires support from the protein homeostasis network. We set to examine which newly translated proteins are less thermostable to infer which polypeptides require more time to fold. More specifically, we sought to determine which newly translated proteins are more susceptible to misfolding and aggregation under heat stress using pulse SILAC. These proteins were abundant, shorter, and highly ordered, with a potentially larger hydrophobic core as suggested by their higher hydrophobicity. Notably these proteins contain more β-sheets that typically require more time for folding and were enriched for Hsp70/Ssb and TRiC/CCT binding motifs, suggesting a higher demand for chaperone-assisted folding. These polypeptides were also more often components of stable protein complexes. All evidence combined suggests that a specific subset of newly translated proteins requires more time following synthesis to reach a thermostable native state in the cell.

Project description:Chromosomal DNA replication involves the coordinated activity of hundreds to thousands of replication origins. Individual replication origins are subject to epigenetic regulation of their activity during S-phase, resulting in differential efficiencies and timings of replication initiation during S-phase. This regulation is thought to involve chromatin structure and organization into timing domains with differential ability to recruit limiting replication factors. Rif1 has recently been identified as a genome-wide regulator of replication timing in fission yeast and in mammalian cells. However, previous studies in budding yeast have suggested that Rif1’s role in controlling replication timing may be limited to subtelomeric domains and derives from its established role in telomere length regulation. We have analyzed replication timing by analyzing BrdU incorporation genome-wide, and report that Rif1 regulates the timing of late/dormant replication origins throughout the S. cerevisiae genome. Analysis of pfa4∆ cells, which are defective in palmitoylation and membrane association of Rif1, suggests that replication timing regulation by Rif1 is independent of its role in localizing telomeres to the nuclear periphery. Intra-S checkpoint signaling is intact in rif1∆ cells, and checkpoint-defective mec1∆ cells do not comparably deregulate replication timing, together indicating that Rif1 regulates replication timing through a mechanism independent of this checkpoint. Our results indicate that the Rif1 mechanism regulates origin timing irrespective of proximity to a chromosome end, and suggest instead that telomere sequences merely provide abundant binding sites for proteins that recruit Rif1. Still, the abundance of Rif1 binding in telomeric domains may facilitate Rif1-mediated repression of non-telomeric origins that are more distal from centromeres. 4 samples BrdU-IP-seq in HU, 2 strains with 2-replicates each (strains:WT and rif1 delta)

Project description:Lifelong production of the many types of mature blood cells from less differentiated progenitors is a hierarchically ordered process that spans multiple cell divisions. The nature and timing of the molecular events required to integrate the environmental signals, transcription factor activity, epigenetic modifications, and changes in gene expression involved are thus complex and still poorly understood. We now show that the more primitive types of human cells in this system display a unique repressive H3K27me3 signature that is retained by mature lymphoid cells but is lost in terminally differentiated monocytes and erythroblasts. Additional intervention data implicate that control of this chromatin state change is a requisite part of the process, whereby normal human hematopoietic progenitor cells make lymphoid and myeloid fate decisions.
