Project description:RNA-seq analysis was used to identify the gene expression changes in male and hermaphroditie when daf-18 is lost. Based on these sequencing data, the genes that were up-regulated or down-regulated by at least 2 times (|log2 (folding change) | ≥ 1 and padj ≤ 0.05) were analyzed. The analysis of these differentially expressed genes' pathway and gene ontology (GO) enrichment shows that the influence of different genders after daf-18 deletion is enriched to some signal pathways, including longevity and protein degradation pathway in endoplasmic reticulum, etc.

Project description:Isobutanol is considered a potential biofuel and can be produced by genetically modified microorganisms. Saccharomyces cerevisiae inherently produces isobutanol through valine intermediate(s), so it serves as a good host. However, isobutanol's toxicity remains a key obstacle for bioproduction. In our study, we first used image recognition to screen the colony growth of a yeast gene deletion library and inferred that genes involved in tryptophan biosynthesis, ubiquitination, and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) contribute to isobutanol tolerance. The importance of tryptophan in yeast's tolerance to isobutanol was confirmed by the recovery of isobutanol tolerance in a tryptophan biosynthesis defective strain by adding exogenous tryptophan. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that amino acid biosynthesis- and transportation-related genes in a tryptophan biosynthesis defective host were up regulated under conditions such as nitrogen starvation. This may explain why ubiquitination for protein degradation was involved for the protein turnover. PPP metabolites and vitamin B1/B6 may serve as precursors and cofactors in tryptophan biosynthesis to enhance isobutanol tolerance. Furthermore, the tolerance mechanism may also be linked to tryptophan metabolism, including the kynurenine pathway and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide biosynthesis. Both pathways are responsible for cellular redox balance and antioxidative ability and figured out that tryptophan may play a crucial role on isobutanol tolerance. Our study highlights the central role of tryptophan in yeast's isobutanol tolerance and offers new clues for engineering a yeast host with strong isobutanol tolerance.

Project description:Tryptophan metabolism and de novo NAD biosynthesis is associated with behavioural changes in IBD patients. The microbiota and tryptophan de novo syntheses of the distal colon, distal colon and brain of C57BL/6 control mice and Winnie mice littermates with chronic intestinal inflammation were compared using RNA-Seq. Differentially expressed genes were analysed using Micromon software. Changes in tryptophan and nicotinamide metabolism-associated gene expressions, metabolites, and abundance of gut microbiota associated with chronic intestinal inflammation and dysregulated tryptophan metabolism in the Winnie mouse distal colon and brain were apparent. Our findings shed light on the physiological alterations in tryptophan metabolism, specifically its diversion from the serotonergic pathway towards the kynurenine pathway and the consequential effects on de novo NAD+ synthesis, in the context of chronic intestinal inflammation

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is one of the intractable diseases. Nutritional components associated with IBD have been identified, and it is known that excessive methionine intake exacerbates inflammation and that tryptophan metabolism is involved in inflammation. In this study, we examined how temporary methionine, tryptophan, and niacin deficiencies alter gene expression in the intestinal cells of a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-fed IBD mouse model. The results showed that feeding amino acid deficient diets increased the expression of serine proteases and fat metabolizing enzymes. Amino acid deficiency also activated one-carbon metabolism and the PPAR pathway. These results suggest that temporary amino acid deficiency may be useful to enhance the antioxidant activity of the host.

Project description:Eosinophilia–myalgia syndrome (EMS) is characterized by subacute onset of myalgias and peripheral eosinophilia, followed by chronic neuropathy and skin induration. The EMS epidemic in 1989 was linked to L-tryptophan consumption originating from a single source. Following the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ban on the sale of L-tryptophan, the incidence of EMS declined rapidly. Moreover, no new cases have been published since the FDA ban was lifted in 2005. We report the clinical, histopathological and immunogenetic features of a new case of L-tryptophan-associated EMS along with evidence of activated transforming growth factor-ß and interleukin-4 signaling in the lesional skin. 6 samples were analyzed to include EMS patient and two replicates along with three normal controls

Abstract:
Tryptophan is utilized in various metabolic routes including
protein synthesis, serotonin, and melatonin synthesis and the
kynurenine pathway. Perturbations in these pathways have been
associated with neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Here we
present a comprehensive kinetic model of the complex network of
human tryptophan metabolism based upon existing kinetic data
for all enzymatic conversions and transporters. By integrating
tissue-specific expression data, modeling tryptophan metabolism
in liver and brain returned intermediate metabolite
concentrations in the physiological range. Sensitivity and
metabolic control analyses identified expected key enzymes to
govern fluxes in the branches of the network. Combining
tissue-specific models revealed a considerable impact of the
kynurenine pathway in liver on the concentrations of
neuroactive derivatives in the brain. Moreover, using
expression data from a cancer study predicted metabolite
changes that resembled the experimental observations. We
conclude that the combination of the kinetic model with
expression data represents a powerful diagnostic tool to
predict alterations in tryptophan metabolism. The model is
readily scalable to include more tissues, thereby enabling
assessment of organismal tryptophan metabolism in health and
disease.

Project description:DNA microarray analysis of gene expression in response to physiological and genetic changes that affect tryptophan metabolism in Escherichia coli. We investigated the global changes in mRNA abundance in Escherichia coli elicited by various perturbations of tryptophan metabolism. To do so we printed DNA microarrays containing 95% of all annotated E. coli ORFs. We determined the expression profile that is predominantly dictated by the activity of the tryptophan repressor. Only three operons, trp, mtr, and aroH, exhibited appreciable expression changes consistent with this profile. The quantitative changes we observed in mRNA levels for the five genes of the trp operon were consistent within a factor of 2, with expectations based on established Trp protein levels. Several operons known to be regulated by the TyrR protein, aroF-tyrA, aroL, aroP, and aroG, were down-regulated on addition of tryptophan. TyrR can be activated by any one of the three aromatic amino acids. Only one operon, tnaAB, was significantly activated by the presence of tryptophan in the medium. We uncovered a plethora of likely indirect effects of changes in tryptophan metabolism on intracellular mRNA pools, most prominent of which was the sensitivity of arginine biosynthetic operons to tryptophan starvation.

Project description:Mice were fed a normal chow diet or a tryptophan depleted diet for two weeks under normal 12-hr light/dark cycles (LD) or in constant darkness (DD). Mice were sacrificed every 4th hour over the 24-hr circadian cycle. The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) was harvested and RNA was isolated using a standard TRIZOL protocol. The data suggest that dietary tryptophan is an important component of the diet regulating circadian homeostsis.
