Arabidopsis Mitochondrial Transcription Termination Factor mTERF2 Promotes Splicing of Group IIB Introns

ABSTRACT: Members of the mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) family regulate gene expression in chloroplasts and/or mitochondria at different steps. Here, we investigated the molecular function of chloroplast-localized mTERF2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. Loss-of-function mterf2 mutants are embryo lethal. Thus, artificial microRNA-mediated mterf2 knockdown plants were generated. In amiR-mterf2 mutants, plant development is perturbed and chlorophyll content reduced. A defect in photosynthesis is accompanied by reduced levels of photosystem subunits, although corresponding messenger RNA levels are unaffected. RNA immunoprecipitation followed by RNA sequencing (RIP-Seq) experiments combined with whole-genome RNA-Seq, RNA gel-blot and quantitative RT-PCR analyses revealed the requirement of mTERF2 for splicing of the group IIB introns of ycf3 (intron 1) and rps12.

Identification of Host Biomarkers of EBV Latency IIb and Latency III

Project description:Deciphering the molecular pathogenesis of virally induced cancers is challenging due, in part, to the heterogeneity of both viral and host gene expression. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous herpesvirus prevalent in B-cell lymphomas of the immune suppressed. EBV infection of primary human B cells leads to their immortalization into lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) serving as a model of these lymphomas. In previous studies, our lab has described a temporal model for immortalization with an initial phase characterized by expression of the Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigens (EBNAs), high c-Myc activity, and hyper-proliferation in the absence of the Latent Membrane Proteins (LMPs), called latency IIb. This is followed by the long-term outgrowth of LCLs expressing the EBNAs along with the LMPs, particularly the NFkB-activating LMP1, defining latency III. LCLs, however, express a broad distribution of LMP1 such that a subset of these cells expresses LMP1 at levels seen in latency IIb, making it difficult to distinguish these two latency states. In this study, we performed mRNA-Seq on early EBV-infected latency IIb cells and latency III LCLs sorted by NFkB activity. We found that latency IIb transcriptomes clustered independently from latency III independent of NFkB. We identified and validated mRNAs defining these latency states. Indeed, we were able to distinguish latency IIb cells from LCLs expressing low levels of LMP1 using multiplex RNA-FISH targeting EBV EBNA2, LMP1, and human CCR7 or MGST1. This study defines latency IIb as a bona fide latency state independent from latency III and identifies biomarkers for understanding EBV-associated tumor heterogeneity

mRNA Seq analysis of Drosophila wing imaginal discs from Rp mutants and controls in the presence and absence of RpS12 mutations RpS12

Project description:mRNA Seq analysis of Drosophila wing imaginal discs from Rp mutants and controls in the presence and absence of RpS12 mutations RpS12 is a regulatory gene required for Xrp1-mediated control of translation and growth in mutants for other ribosomal protein genes Loss of function mutations in Ribosomal Protein (Rp) genes are generally lethal, but heterozygous mutant phenotypes increasingly reveal previously cryptic functions of Rps in growth control and tumor suppression. Here we report that RpS12 in particular is a regulatory gene that controls its own expression levels and also signals to control hundreds of gene expression changes in mutants for haploinsufficient Rp genes, acting through the bZip protein Xrp1. Through Xrp1, RpS12 reduces the bulk translation rate of Rp mutant cells and increases the developmental rate of Rp mutant genotypes. RpS12 also has an Xrp1-independent, positive contribution to normal development, so that the effects of RpS12 mutations in different genetic backgrounds reflects the sum of the Xrp1-dependent and Xrp1-independent effects. Our findings outline a regulatory response to mutations affecting essential Rp genes that controls overall translation and growth.

Transcriptomic analysis of salt stress responsive genes related pigment metabolism in photoheterotrophic Arabidopsis calli

Project description:In order to investigate the salt stress induced chlorophyll biosynthesis-related genes in photoheterotrophic cultures, we performed RNA-Seq analysis on A. thaliana calli exposed to 100 mM NaCl on MS medium containing 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D 30 days. Four different conditions of samples were sequenced on Illumina HiSeq Platform in total and generated about 4.49 Gb per sample. The average genome and gene mapping rates were 93.52% and 90.78%, respectively. According to expression profile analysis, some DEGs demonstrated altered related to chlorophyll pigment metabolism. According to analysis, green callus color of photoheterotrophic calli were mainly connected with the induction of LHCB4.3 light harvesting complex photosystem II (Gene ID:818599), AT1G49975 photosystem I reaction center subunit N (Gene ID: 841421), PAM68 PAM68-like protein (DUF3464) (Gene ID: 2745715) and AT3G63540 thylakoid lumenal protein (Mog1/PsbP/DUF1795-like photosystem II reaction center PsbP family protein)(Gene ID: 7922413) genes. Furthermore, 8 DEGs were randomly selected to validate the transcriptome profiles via qPCR. These results will provide a foundation for further studies aimed at giving photosynthetic properties to in vitro plant cultures.

Defects in secondary cell-wall synthesis mitigate the effects of lincomycin on early chloroplast development

Project description:Lincomycin (LIN)-mediated inhibition of protein synthesis in chloroplasts prevents greening of seedlings, represses the activity of photosynthesis-related genes in the nucleus including LHCB1.2, and induces the phenylpropanoid pathway, resulting in production of anthocyanins. In genomes uncoupled (gun) mutants, LHCB1.2 expression is maintained in the presence of LIN or other inhibitors of early chloroplast development. In a screen using concentrations of LIN lower than those employed to isolate gun mutants, we have identified happy on lincomycin (holi) mutants. Several holi mutants show increased tolerance to LIN, exhibiting de-repressed LHCB1.2 expression and chlorophyll synthesis in seedlings. The mutations responsible were identified by whole-genome SNP mapping, and most were found to affect the phenylpropanoid pathway. However, LHCB1.2 expression appears not to be directly regulated by phenylpropanoids, as indicated by metabolic profiling of mutants. The most potent holi mutant is defective in a subunit of cellulose synthase encoded by IRREGULAR XYLEM3, and comparative analysis of this and other cell-wall mutants establishes a link between secondary cell-wall integrity and tolerance to LIN, possibly involving altered ABA metabolism or sensing.

Arabidopsis Mitochondrial Transcription Termination Factor mTERF2 Promotes Splicing of Group IIB Introns.

Project description:Plastid gene expression (PGE) is essential for chloroplast biogenesis and function and, hence, for plant development. However, many aspects of PGE remain obscure due to the complexity of the process. A hallmark of nuclear-organellar coordination of gene expression is the emergence of nucleus-encoded protein families, including nucleic-acid binding proteins, during the evolution of the green plant lineage. One of these is the mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) family, the members of which regulate various steps in gene expression in chloroplasts and/or mitochondria. Here, we describe the molecular function of the chloroplast-localized mTERF2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. The complete loss of mTERF2 function results in embryo lethality, whereas directed, microRNA (amiR)-mediated knockdown of MTERF2 is associated with perturbed plant development and reduced chlorophyll content. Moreover, photosynthesis is impaired in amiR-mterf2 plants, as indicated by reduced levels of photosystem subunits, although the levels of the corresponding messenger RNAs are not affected. RNA immunoprecipitation followed by RNA sequencing (RIP-Seq) experiments, combined with whole-genome RNA-Seq, RNA gel-blot, and quantitative RT-PCR analyses, revealed that mTERF2 is required for the splicing of the group IIB introns of ycf3 (intron 1) and rps12.

PhDHS is involved in chloroplast development in petunia

Project description:Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHS) is encoded by a nuclear gene and is the key enzyme involved in the post-translational activation of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF5A. DHS plays important roles in plant growth and development. To gain a better understanding of DHS, the petunia (Petunia hybrida) PhDHS gene was isolated, and the role of PhDHS in plant growth was analysed. PhDHS protein was localized to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Virus-mediated PhDHS silencing caused a sectored chlorotic leaf phenotype. The chlorophyll levels was reducted and the development of chloroplasts was abnormal in PhDHS-silenced leaves These features were not observed in DHS-suppressed Arabidopsis thaliana and Solanum lycopersicum. These results indicated that PhDHS is required for development in petunia. A proteome assay showed that 308 proteins are up-regulated and 266 proteins are down-regulated in PhDHS-silenced plants compared with control. Among them, 20 proteins in photosystem I and photosystem II and 11 thylakoid proteins were down-regulated in PhDHS-silenced leaves, further supporting the involvement of PhDHS in photosynthesis in petunia.

A novel S-sulfocysteine synthase essential for chloroplast function in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:In bacteria, the biosynthesis of cysteine is accomplished by two enzymes that are encoged by the cysK and cysM genes. CysM is also able to incorporate thiosulfate to produce S-sulfocysteine. In plant cells, the biosynthesis of cysteine occurs in the cytosol, mitochondria and chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain two O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase homologs, which are encoded by the OAS-B and CS26 genes. An in vitro enzymatic analysis of the recombinant CS26 protein demonstrated that this isoform possesses S-sulfocysteine synthase activity and lacks O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase activity. In vivo functional analysis of this enzyme in knockout mutants demonstrated that mutation of cs26 suppressed the S-sulfocysteine synthase activity that was detected in wild type; furthermore, the mutants exhibited a growth phenotype, but penetrance depended on the light regime. The cs26 mutant plants also had reductions in chlorophyll content and photosynthetic activity (neither of which were observed in oas-b mutants), as well as elevated glutathione levels. However, cs26 leaves were not able to properly detoxify ROS, which accumulated to high levels under long-day growth conditions. The transcriptional profile of the cs26 mutant revealed that the mutation had a pleiotropic effect on many cellular and metabolic processes. Our finding reveals that S-sulfocysteine and the activity of S-sulfocysteine synthase play an important role in chloroplast function and are essential for light-dependent redox regulation within the chloroplast.
