Types I GT1, II Me49, III CTGara strains - tachyzoite and Compound 1

ABSTRACT: Previous studies suggested that specific bradyzoite genes were differentially expressed in the three major lineages common to North America and Europe (Radke et al., 2006). In order to determine if these differences extended to the global transcriptome, we characterized whole-cell mRNA levels in both tachyzoite and bradyzoite populations from three primary strain isolates differentiated in vitro. It is well understood in the field that long passage history is associated with the loss of developmental competence (Frenkel et al., 1976). Therefore, the Type I-GT1, Type II-Me49B7 and Type III-CTG strains studied here were maintained at < 20 cell culture passages from the oocyst stage and are capable of completing both intermediate and definitive host life cycles. These experiments used newly constructed Affymetrix GeneChips that include probe sets for ~8000 genes, and we assessed the induction of bradyzoite genes using a strong inducer of bradyzoite differentiation, Compound 1 (Radke et al., 2006).

Transcriptome analysis of oocyst, tachyzoite, and bradyzoite development in the type II Toxoplasma gondii strain M4.

Transcriptome analysis of oocyst, tachyzoite, and bradyzoite development in the type II Toxoplasma gondii strain M4.

Project description:There were three primary objectives to the overall experiment. I. Describe the transcriptome of the oocyst through its development beginning with the freshly excreted, unsporulated oocyst at “Day 0” to a fully sporulated and mature oocyst at “Day 10” and including a mid-sporulation timepoint at “Day 4”. II. Compare the transcriptomes of in vitro vs. in vivo derived bradyzoites. III. Compare expression data from three life stages (oocyst, bradyzoite and tachyzoite) from the same parasite isolate, M4, which has been been characterized as a Type II strain. Each array represents seperately isolated and processed RNA samples. (Two samples per time point/developmental stage) RNA samples were obtained from: 1. Oocysts harvested from kitten feces and purified for RNA extraction at Day 0, (not sporulated), Day 4 post-induction of sporulation (mid-sporulation) and Day 10 post-induction of sporulation (fully sporulated). Oocysts were collected and combined from two kittens that were infected with the same starting material (mouse brains containing bradyzoite cysts of the same parasite strain). Duplicate samples were obtained from feces collected and purified on separate days. 2. Bradyzoite cysts harvested from the brains of mice that were infected with oocysts from the same strain (obtained from the oocysts harvested from kittens as described for the oocyst RNA). Mice were treated with 0.44 µg/ml sulfadiazine in their water days 11-21 pi. Mice were sacrificed on day 21 for cyst purification. 3. In vitro 4 and 8 dpi bradyzoite and 2 dpi tachyzoite samples are from separately infected cultures of human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) (replicates were infected on the same day). The parasites used for the initial infections were derived from the same culture. Samples were harvested independently and kept separate for all the subsequent processing and labeling steps.

Tachyzoite to bradyzoite differentiation

Project description:Developmental switching in Toxoplasma gondii, from the virulent tachyzoite to the relatively quiescent bradyzoite stage, is responsible for disease propagation and reactivation. We have generated tachyzoite to bradyzoite differentiation (Tbd-) mutants in T. gondii and used these in combination with a cDNA microarray to identify developmental pathways in bradyzoite formation. Four independently generated Tbd- mutants were analysed and had defects in bradyzoite development in response to multiple bradyzoite-inducing conditions, a stable phenotype after in vivo passages and a markedly reduced brain cyst burden in a murine model of chronic infection. Transcriptional profiles of mutant and wild-type parasites, growing under bradyzoite conditions, revealed a hierarchy of developmentally regulated genes, including many bradyzoite-induced genes whose transcripts were reduced in all mutants. A set of non-developmentally regulated genes whose transcripts were less abundant in Tbd- mutants were also identified. These may represent genes that mediate downstream effects and/or whose expression is dependent on the same transcription factors as the bradyzoite-induced set. Using these data, we have generated a model of transcription regulation during bradyzoite development in T. gondii. Our approach shows the utility of this system as a model to study developmental biology in single-celled eukaryotes including protozoa and fungi.

Expression data from GT1-7 cells after treatment with GnRH

Project description:Analysis of GT1-7 cells treated with GnRH. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from GT1-7 cells after treatment with GnRH. We confirmed that GT1-7 cells expressed DUSP5 and DUSP6 after GnRH treatment. Results provide insight into the effect of GnRH on MAP kinase pathway.

Parasite gene expression differences between RH-ERP, RH-JSR and GT1 of Toxoplasma gondii.

Project description:Parasite gene expression differences have been reported previously between RH-ERP, RH-JSR and GT1. To independently confirm these gene expression differences, we examined the parasite gene expression profiles of RH-ERP, RH-JSR and GT1 through microarray.

grape berry vacuole proteomic - Quantitative Proteome Analysis Reveals Changes in the Protein Landscape During Grape Berry Development With a Focus on Vacuolar Transport Proteins

Project description:The vacuole occupies a large portion of plant cell volume, it is especially true to fruit tissues. Berry flesh cell vacuole serves as storage organelle for water, sugars, acids, secondary metabolites and others, which largely determining berry quality (Fontes et al., 2011a, b; Shiratake and Martinoia, 2007, Conde et al., 2006). However, the molecular basis of these compartmentation processes is still poorly understood. As in many species, the major bottle neck to study these aspects in grapevine is to obtain highly purified vacuoles with a good yield (Fontes et al., 2010). Up to date, several vacuole or tonoplast proteome researches were applied on a few plants mainly on Arabidopsis thaliana, vacuoles or tonoplast were derived from mesophyll cells (Carter et al., 2004, Endler et al., 2006, Schulze, et al., 2012) or cell culture (Jaquinod et al 2006, Shimaoka et al 2004), cauliflower buds (Schmidt et al., 2007) and sugar beet taproots (Jung et al., 2015). Though the grape berry protoplasts and intact vacuoles were successfully isolated from Cabernet Sauvignon berry suspension-cultured cells (Fontes et al., 2010), the vacuoles isolated from grape berry or different development and ripening stages of grape berry mesocarp tissues were not achieved.
