RNA-seq analysis of Tetrahymena thermophila

ABSTRACT: We present a comprehensive transcriptome of ciliate T. thermophila using the Illumina RNA-seq platform. The data was generated from the six mRNA samples of growth, starvation and conjugation of Tetrahymena. Despite an AT rich genome, there are about 124.6 million reads mapped to T. thermophila genome. Using these mapped reads, we have significantly improved the previous genome annotation and investigated the gene expression. Besides, our result also provided a comprehensive understanding of the alternative splicing in T. thermophila, and suggested the existence of the regulated unproductive splicing and translation (RUST) in the single-celled eukaryote.

Characterization of the CORVET complexes of Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:In endolysosomal networks, two hetero-hexameric tethers called HOPS and CORVET are found widely throughout eukaryotes. The ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila is a unicellular organism with elaborate endolysosomal pathways. Curiously, Tetrahymena and related protozoa have lost HOPS. Tetrahymena encodes multiple paralogs of most CORVET subunits, assembled into six distinct hexameric complexes, including a distinct Vps8 subunit. Here we analyze the composition of these complexes immunoisolated by affinity capture using the Vps8-FLAG paralogs as bait.

Transcriptional response of Tetrahymena thermophila to exogenous cholesterol

Project description:The model ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila satisfies its growth using triterpenoid alcohols, mainly tetrahymanol, as a surrogate of sterols. When sterols are present in the environment, T. thermophila efficiently incorporates and modifies them. T. thermophila can modify exogenous sterols by desaturation at positions C5(6), C7(8) and C22(23), and also by de-ethylation of C24. Three out of four of the enzymes involved in the sterol modification pathway were previously described by our group. However, identification of the sterol C22 desaturase remained elusive, as well as other basic aspects of this metabolism. To get more insights into this peculiar metabolism we here perform a whole transcriptome analysis of T. thermophila in response to exogenous cholesterol. We found 356 T. thermophila genes to be differentially expressed after supplementation with cholesterol for two hours. Among those genes that were upregulated under our experimental conditions, we identified two genes belonging to the long-spaced family of desaturases that we propose as putative sterol C22 desaturases. Moreover, we determined that the inhibition of tetrahymanol synthesis after sensing exogenous cholesterol occurs by a transcriptional downregulation of genes involved in squalene synthesis and cyclization. Finally, we also identified several uncharacterized genes that can be putatively involved in sterols transport and signaling.
