The CCR4-NOT Complex Is Implicated in the Viability of Aneuploid Yeasts

ABSTRACT: To identify the genes required to sustain aneuploid viability, we screened a deletion library of non-essential genes in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, in which most types of aneuploidy are eventually lethal to the cell. Aneuploids remain viable for a period time and can form colonies by reducing the extent of the aneuploidy. We hypothesized that a reduction in colony formation efficiency could be used to screen for gene deletions that compromise aneuploid viability. Deletion mutants were used to measure the effects on the viability of spores derived from triploid meiosis and from a chromosome instability mutant. We found that the CCR4-NOT complex, an evolutionarily conserved general regulator of mRNA turnover, and other related factors, including poly(A)-specific nuclease for mRNA decay, are involved in aneuploid viability. Defective mutations in CCR4-NOT complex components in the distantly related yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae also affected the viability of spores produced from triploid cells, suggesting that this complex has a conserved role in aneuploids. In addition, our findings suggest that the genes required for homologous recombination repair are important for aneuploid viability.

Premature aging in aneuploid yeast is influenced by aneuploidy-induced defects in Ribosome Quality Control [RiboSeq]

Project description:Premature aging is a hallmark of Down syndrome, caused by trisomy of human chromosome 21; but the reason is unclear and difficult to study in humans. We used an aneuploid model in wild yeast to show that chromosome amplification disrupts nutrient-induced cell-cycle arrest, quiescence entry, and healthy aging, across genetic backgrounds and amplified chromosomes. We discovered that these defects are due in part to aneuploidy-induced dysfunction in Ribosome Quality Control (RQC). Aneuploids entering quiescence display aberrant ribosome profiles, accumulate RQC intermediates, and harbor an increased load of protein aggregates. Although they have normal proteasome capacity, aneuploids show signs of ubiquitin dysregulation, which impacts cyclin abundance to disrupt arrest. Remarkably, inducing ribosome stalling in euploids produces similar aberrations, while up-regulating limiting RQC subunits or proteins in ubiquitin metabolism alleviates many of the aneuploid defects. Our results raise major implications for other aneuploidy disorders including Down syndrome.

The environmental stress response causes ribosome loss in aneuploid yeast cells.

Project description:Aneuploidy, a condition characterized by whole chromosome gains and losses, is often associated with significant cellular stress and decreased fitness. However, whether and how cells respond to the aneuploid state has remained controversial. In aneuploid budding yeast, two opposing gene expression patterns have been reported: an environmental stress response (ESR) and a “common aneuploidy gene-expression” (CAGE) signature, in which many ESR genes are oppositely regulated. Here, we investigate and bring clarity to this controversy. We show that the CAGE signature is not an aneuploidy-specific gene expression signature but is the result of euploid control cells, but not aneuploid cells, having grown into stationary phase. Because growth into stationary phase is amongst the strongest inducers of the ESR, the ESR in aneuploid cells was masked when stationary phase euploid cells were used for normalization in transcriptomic studies. When exponentially growing euploid cells are used in gene expression comparisons with aneuploid cells, the CAGE signature is no longer evident in aneuploid cells. Instead, aneuploid cells are found to exhibit the ESR. We further show that the ESR causes a selective loss of ribosomes in aneuploid cells, providing an explanation for the decreased cellular density in aneuploid cells. We conclude that aneuploid budding yeast cells mount the ESR, rather than a CAGE signature, in response to aneuploidy-induced cellular stresses that results in selective ribosome loss.

Profiling expression changes caused by a segmental aneuploid in maize

Project description:ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: While changes in chromosome number that result in aneuploidy are associated with phenotypic consequences such as Down syndrome and cancer, the molecular causes of specific phenotypes and genome-wide expression changes that occur in aneuploids are still being elucidated. RESULTS: We employed a segmental aneuploid condition in maize to study phenotypic and gene expression changes associated with aneuploidy. Maize plants that are trisomic for 90% of the short arm of chromosome 5 and monosomic for a small distal portion of the short arm of chromosome 6 exhibited a phenotypic syndrome that includes reduced stature, tassel morphology changes and the presence of knots on the leaves. The knotted-like homeobox gene knox10, which is located on the short arm of chromosome 5, was shown to be ectopically expressed in developing leaves of the aneuploid plants. Expression profiling revealed that ~40% of the expressed genes in the trisomic region exhibited the expected 1.5 fold increased transcript levels while the remaining 60% of genes did not show altered expression even with increased gene dosage. CONCLUSIONS: We found that the majority of genes with altered expression levels were located within the chromosomal regions affected by the segmental aneuploidy and exhibits dosage-dependent expression changes. A small number of genes exhibit higher levels of expression change not predicted by the dosage, or display altered expression even though they are not located in the aneuploid regions.

The natural diversity of the yeast proteome links aneuploidy tolerance to protein turnover

Project description:Accessing the natural genetic diversity of species unveils hidden genetic traits, clarifies gene functions, and allows assessment of the generalizability of laboratory findings. One notable discovery made in Saccharomyces cerevisiae natural isolates is frequent (~20%) aneuploidy – an imbalance in chromosome copy numbers – that appears to contradict the significant fitness costs and transient nature reported for lab-engineered aneuploids. Here, we generated a proteomic resource and merged it with genomic and transcriptomic data for 796 euploid and aneuploid natural isolates. We found that natural and lab-generated aneuploids differ specifically at the proteome. In lab-generated aneuploids, some proteins, especially protein complex subunits, show reduced expression, yet the overall protein levels correspond to the aneuploid gene dosage. By contrast, in natural isolates, more than 70% of proteins encoded on aneuploid chromosomes are dosage-compensated, with average protein levels being shifted towards the euploid state chromosome-wide. At the molecular level, we detect an induction of structural components of the proteasome, increased levels of ubiquitination, and reveal an interdependency of protein turnover rates and attenuation. Our study thus highlights the role of protein turnover in mediating aneuploidy tolerance, and demonstrates the utility of exploiting the natural diversity of species to reach generalizable molecular insights into complex biological processes. This resource provides the SILAC dataset from this work.

Magnitude of modulation of gene expression in aneuploid maize depends on the extent of genomic imbalance

Project description:Aneuploidy has profound effects on an organism, typically more so than polyploidy, and the basis of this contrast is not fully understood. A dosage series of maize chromosome arm 1L was used to compare relative global gene expression in different types and degrees of aneuploidy to gain insight into how the magnitude of genomic imbalance as well as hypoploidy affect global gene expression. While previously available methods required a selective examination of specific genes, RNA sequencing provides a whole-genome view of gene expression in aneuploids. Most studies of global aneuploid effects have concentrated on trisomics because other types of aneuploids are difficult to produce in most model genetic organisms. The genetic toolkit of maize allows the examination of multiple ploidies and 1-4 doses of chromosome arms. Thus, a detailed examination of expression changes both on the varied chromosome arm and elsewhere in the genome is possible, in both hypoploids and hyperploids, compared with euploid controls. Previous studies observed the inverse trans effect, in which genes not varied in DNA dosage are expressed in a negative relationship to the varied chromosomal region. This response was also the major type of change found globally in this study. It was also found that the effects of aneuploidy are progressive, with more severe aneuploids producing effects of greater magnitude.

Experiment Overall Design: There are four biological replicates of pooled wild-type siblings and four biological replicates of pooled DpDf plants. The DpDf plants are segmental aneuploids that contain three copies of the short arm of chromosome 5. These plants are all in the B73 inbred genetic background.

No evidence for whole-chromosome dosage compensation or global transcriptomic expression differences in spontaneously-aneuploid mutation accumulation lines of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Aneuploidy, the state in which an organism’s genome contains one or more missing or additional chromosomes, often causes widespread genotypic and phenotypic effects. Most often, aneuploidies are deleterious; the most common examples in humans being Down’s syndrome (Trisomy 21) and Turner’s syndrome (monosomy X). However, aneuploidy is surprisingly common in wild yeast populations. In recent years, there has been debate as to whether yeast contain an innate dosage compensation response on the whole-genome level, or if these natural isolates are robust to aneuploidy without such a mechanism. In this study, we tested for differential gene expression in 20 aneuploid and 18 euploid lines of yeast from two previous mutation accumulation experiments, where selection was low and therefore aneuploidies arose spontaneously. We found no evidence for whole-chromosome dosage compensation in aneuploid yeast but did find some evidence for attenuation of expression on a gene-by-gene basis. We additionally found that aneuploidy has no effect on the expression of the rest of the genome (i.e. “trans” genes), and that very few mutually exclusive aneuploid lines shared differentially expressed genes. However, we found a small common differential expression response in the euploid lines, suggesting an effect of mutation accumulation on gene expression. Our findings contribute to our understanding of aneuploidy in yeast and support the hypothesis that there is no innate dosage compensation mechanism at the whole-chromosome level.
