Project description:Overwintering mortality is the greatest threat to the supply of healthy bee colonies available for pollination of spring-blooming crops, but efforts to mitigate colony losses are hindered because underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. In the present study, we identified that sirtuin signaling pathway is the most significantly affected pathway in collapsing overwintering colonies that carried a high prevalence of pathogens and is a convergent signaling hub that links mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolism alterations. We showed that the expression of SIRT1, a major sirtuin regulating energy and immune metabolism, was significantly downregulated in diseased overwintering bees and bees exposed to cold challenge alone. We demonstrated that activation of SIRT1 expression by SRT1720, a SIRT1 activator, could result in increased robustness and lifespan extension of cold-stressed bees. The novel information gained from this study provides a promising avenue for the development of therapeutic strategies for mitigating colony losses, both overwinter and annually.

Project description:Escherichia coli O157 presents a number of specific problems in terms of food safety and public health. It has been found that E. coli O157 is more resistant to a number of the stresses encountered during food production such as heat, pH and osmotic shock. This greater resistance is thought to contribute to the low infectious dose of E. coli O157 (<100 organisms). Moreover, E. coli O157 is associated with debilitating conditions such as haemorrhagic colitis and haemoytic uraemic syndrome, particularly in children and the elderly. We have been studying the stress responses of E. coli O157:H7 (Sakai) and comparing with a commensal strain of E. coli K-12, MG1655. We found that E. coli O157 (Sakai) is more resistant to heat stress than MG1655. A microarray study of these strains subjected to sub-lethal heat-stress at 45M-BM-0C was carried out. In E. coli O157 (Sakai), 380 genes responded significantly to the treatment compared to 410 genes in MG1655. Overnight cultures of E. coli O157 (Sakai) and E. coli K-12 MG1655 were grown in Neidhardt's EZ Rich Defined Medium and diluted 1:100 in 50 ml fresh medium in 125 ml Ehrlenmeyer flasks. The cultures were shaken at 37M-BM-0C until the optical density (OD600) reached 0.4. Each culture was divided into 2 equal parts in identical flasks. One flask flask was transferred to a shaking water bath and incubated at 45M-BM-0C for 10 min; the other flask was incubated at 37M-BM-0C for 10 min. After incubation, the cultures were transferred to 50 mL centrifuge tubes and treated with RNAprotectM-bM-^DM-" to stabilise the mRNA. The experiment was performed 3 times on different days. Six custom-made microarray slides were used in this study; each slide was hybridised with labelled cDNA made from untreated and heated E. coli O157 (Sakai) or MG1655.

Project description:The data set described here complements data available under accession number E-MTAB-5153. We performed bulk RNA-sequencing experiments to examine gene expression in the genome of the cold-adapted (psychrophilic) marine diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus growing at 0 degree Celsius and salinity of 34 (normal seawater) and 52 (high salinity) to provide references (controls) to samples grown under a step-wise set of temperature reductions as characteristic during sea ice formation. RNA-seq was performed on replicate samples (N=3) for each experimental condition. Phytoplankton cells were grown under three different experimental conditions including (I) 20 days at 0℃ and salinity 34, (II) 14 days at 0℃ and salinity 52, and (III) 14 days at 0℃ and salinity 52. Samples were processed as described for experiment with accession number E-MTAB-5153. Total RNA was extracted using a guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction protocol, followed by DNase I treatment and RNA purification (Quiagen). First strand cDNA synthesis was performed using random hexamers. Library preparation was performed using the RNA-seq Sample Prep Kit (Illumina) and sequencing was conducted according to the TruSeq RNA sequencing protocol (Illumina). Illumina TruSeq RNA library production process: The libraries for this project were constructed with the PerkinElmer Sciclone using the TruSeq RNA protocol (Illumina 15026495 Rev.B). The library preparation involved an initial QC of the RNA using Qubit DNA (Life technologies Q32854) and RNA (Life technologies Q32852) assays as well as a quality check using the Bioanalyzer with the Nano kit (Agilent 5067-1511). 1ug of this RNA was purified to extract mRNA with a poly- A pull down using biotin beads and fragmented, first strand cDNA was synthesised followed by the second strand. The ends of the samples were repaired using the 3' to 5' exonuclease activity to remove the 3' overhangs and the polymerase activity to fill in the 5' overhangs creating blunt ends. A single ‘A’ nucleotide was added to the 3’ ends of the blunt fragments to prevent them from ligating to one another during the adapter ligation reaction. A corresponding single ‘T’ nucleotide on the 3’ end of the adapter provided a complementary overhang for ligating the adapter to the fragment. This strategy ensured a low rate of chimera formation. The ligation of a number indexing adapters to the ends of the DNA fragments prepared them for hybridisation onto a flow cell. The ligated products were subjected to a bead based size selection using Beckman Coulter XP beads (Beckman Coulter A63880). This removed the majority of un-ligated adapters, as well as any adapters that may have ligated to one another. Prior to hybridisation to the flow cell the samples were PCR’d to selectively enrich those DNA fragments that have adapter molecules on both ends and to amplify the amount of DNA in the library. The PCR was performed with a PCR primer cocktail that annealed to the ends of the adapter. The insert size of the libraries was verified by running an aliquot of the DNA library on a PerkinElmer GX using the High Sensitivity DNA chip (PerkinElmer CLS760672) and the concentration was determined by using a High Sensitivity Qubit assay and q-PCR. Illumina HiSeq 2000 clustering and sequencing: The 24 libraries were normalised and equimolar pooled to 10 nM using elution buffer (Qiagen). Each library pool was then diluted to 2 nM with NaOH and 5μL transferred into 995μL HT1 (Illumina) to give a final concentration of 10pM. 120 μL of each diluted library pool was then transferred into a 200 μL strip tube, spiked with 1% PhiX Control v3 and placed on ice before loading onto the Illumina cBot. The flow cell was clustered using TruSeq Paired End Cluster Generation Kit v3, following the Illumina PE_amplification_Linearization_Blocking_PrimerHyb recipe. Following the clustering procedure, the flow cell was loaded onto the Illumina HiSeq2000 instrument following the manufacturer’s instructions. The sequencing chemistry used was TruSeq SBS Kit v3-HS using HiSeq Control Software 1.4.8 and RTA 1.12.4.2. Each library pool was run in a single lane (lane 5 and 6) for 50cycles of each paired end read. Reads in bcl format were demultiplexed based on the 6 bp Illumina index by CASSAVA, allowing for a one base-pair mismatch per library, and converted to FASTQ format by bcl2fastq.

Project description:For many organisms the ability to cold acclimate with the onset of seasonal cold has major implications for their fitness. In insects, where this ability is widespread, the physiological changes associated with increased cold tolerance have been well studied. Despite this, little work has been done to trace changes in gene expression during cold acclimation that lead to an increase in cold tolerance. We used an RNA-Seq approach to investigate this in two species of the Drosophila virilis group. We found that the majority of genes that are differentially expressed during cold acclimation differ between the two species. Despite this, the biological processes associated with the differentially expressed genes were broadly similar in the two species. These included: metabolism, cell membrane composition, and circadian rhythms, which are largely consistent with previous work on cold acclimation / cold tolerance. In addition, we also found evidence of the involvement of the rhodopsin pathway in cold acclimation, a pathway that has been recently linked to thermotaxis. Interestingly, we found no evidence of differential expression of stress genes implying that long-term cold acclimation and short-term stress response may have a different physiological basis.
