The tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris dramatically upregulates DNA repair pathway genes in response to ionizing radiation [Bleo_RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Tardigrades can survive remarkable doses of ionizing radiation, up to about 1000 times the lethal dose for humans. How they do so is incompletely understood. We found that the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris suffers DNA damage upon gamma irradiation, but damage is repaired. We show that tardigrades have a specific and robust response to ionizing radiation: irradiation induces a rapid and dramatic upregulation of many DNA repair genes. By expressing tardigrade genes in bacteria, we validate that increased expression of some repair genes can suffice to increase radiation tolerance. We show that at least one such gene is necessary for tardigrade radiation tolerance. Tardigrades’ ability to sense ionizing radiation and massively upregulate specific DNA repair pathway genes may represent an evolved solution for maintaining DNA integrity.

The tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris dramatically upregulates DNA repair pathway genes in response to ionizing radiation [IR_RNA-seq]

Project description:Tardigrades can survive remarkable doses of ionizing radiation, up to about 1000 times the lethal dose for humans. How they do so is incompletely understood. We found that the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris suffers DNA damage upon gamma irradiation, but damage is repaired. We show that this tardigrade has a specific and robust response to ionizing radiation: irradiation induces a rapid upregulation of many DNA repair genes. This upregulation is unexpectedly extreme, making some DNA repair transcripts among the most abundant transcripts in the animal. By expressing tardigrade genes in bacteria, we validate that increased expression of some repair genes can suffice to increase radiation tolerance. We show that at least one such gene is important for tardigrade radiation tolerance. We hypothesize that tardigrades’ ability to sense ionizing radiation and massively upregulate specific DNA repair pathway genes may represent an evolved solution for maintaining DNA integrity.

Proteomic analysis of global response to ionizing radiation in Hypsibius exemplaris

Project description:Recent studies have shown that proteins unique to tardigrades are involved in the remarkable ability of these small animals to withstand desiccation and ionizing radiation (IR). For resistance to IR, only one tardigrade unique protein has been identified so far: Dsup, for DNA damage suppressor, found in R. varieornatus and H. exemplaris. Rv-Dsup protects from DNA damage by X-rays in human cells, suggesting that DNA protection is important for resistance to IR. Here, we chose to investigate the role of DNA repair and search for novel tardigrade unique genes involved in resistance to IR. For this, we performed an unbiased proteome analysis of H. exemplaris either untreated, or at 4h post-irradiation, 24h post-irradiation and after Bleomycin treatment.

RNA-Seq of storage cells of tardigrades Ramazzottius varieornatus and Hypsibius exemplaris

Project description:Tardigrades contain characteristic free-floating body cavity cells that are also called storage cells. To investigate the cell-specific expression patterns of tardigrade-unique genes, the expression levels of dissected storage cells are compared to those of the whole body.

RNA-Seq analysis of developmental, juvenile, and anhydrobiotic stages of Hypsibius dujardini and Ramazzottius varieornatus

Project description:Limno-terrestrial tardigrades enter a state called anhydrobiosis when exposed to desiccation, and acquire tolerance against various extreme environments. The anhydrobiotic tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini, is a non-pigmented tardigrade easy to culture and RNAi method have been established, therefore making it a model tardigrade for tardigrade molecular research. Previous genome assemblies of this tardigrade had increased size due to heterozygosity. Here, we have sequenced the genome of H. dujardini using single individual Illumina DNA-Seq data and PacBio long read data, and employed a heterozygosity aware assembly method to assemble a near-complete high quality genome. In order to annotate the genome with gene predictions, we conducted RNA-Sequencing of various stages of developmental, juvenile, adult, and anhydrobiotic stage H. dujardini and Ramazzottius varieornatus, a tardigrade capable of rapid anhydrobiosis entry, and used these data for gene prediction with BRAKER v1.9 or differential gene expression analysis of the active and anhydrobiotic stages.

Proteomic analysis of Hypsibius henanensis sp.nov. suffered from 12C6+ heavy ion radiation based on label-free technology

Project description:Tardigrades are a kind of species that can tolerate ultra-high doses of ionizing radiation. Here, we used heavy ions at different doses of 0,200 and 2000Gy to irradiate Hypsibius henanensis sp.nov.. Label-free proteomic identification was performed on the samples, each dose containing 3 repetitions
