Hyphal Growth in the Fission Yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe grows in a single-celled form or can mate and undergo meiosis and sporulation. Here we show that wild-type S. pombe can also differentiate to form elaborately branched hyphae which invade deep into solid medium. Branches appear in the hyphae adjacent to unseparated septa. Electron microscopy reveals unusual multivesicular structures within the hyphae. Nitrogen deprivation appears to be the main stimulus for hyphal growth. No mitogen-activated protein kinase is necessary for the response. Inhibition of cyclic AMP (cAMP) production or signaling prevents the response, and exogenous cAMP promotes it, suggesting that detection of a good carbon source is required for hyphal growth but not for mating.

Response to leucine in Schizosaccharomyces pombe (fission yeast).

Project description:Leucine (Leu) is a branched-chain, essential amino acid in animals, including humans. Fungi, including the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, can biosynthesize Leu, but deletion of any of the genes in this biosynthesis leads to Leu auxotrophy. In this yeast, although a mutation in the Leu biosynthetic pathway, leu1-32, is clearly inconvenient for this species, it has increased its usefulness as a model organism in laboratories worldwide. Leu auxotrophy produces intracellular responses and phenotypes different from those of the prototrophic strains, depending on the growing environment, which necessitates a certain degree of caution in the analysis and interpretation of the experimental results. Under amino acid starvation, the amino acid-auxotrophic yeast induces cellular responses, which are conserved in higher organisms without the ability of synthesizing amino acids. This mini-review focuses on the roles of Leu in S. pombe and discusses biosynthetic pathways, contribution to experimental convenience using a plasmid specific for Leu auxotrophic yeast, signaling pathways, and phenotypes caused by Leu starvation. An accurate understanding of the intracellular responses brought about by Leu auxotrophy can contribute to research in various fields using this model organism and to the understanding of intracellular responses in higher organisms that cannot synthesize Leu.

Population genomics of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Project description:The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has been widely used as a model eukaryote to study a diverse range of biological processes. However, population genetic studies of this species have been limited to date, and we know very little about the evolutionary processes and selective pressures that are shaping its genome. Here, we sequenced the genomes of 32 worldwide S. pombe strains and examined the pattern of polymorphisms across their genomes. In addition to introns and untranslated regions (UTRs), intergenic regions also exhibited lower levels of nucleotide diversity than synonymous sites, suggesting that a considerable amount of noncoding DNA is under selective constraint and thus likely to be functional. A number of genomic regions showed a reduction of nucleotide diversity probably caused by selective sweeps. We also identified a region close to the end of chromosome 3 where an extremely high level of divergence was observed between 5 of the 32 strains and the remain 27, possibly due to introgression, strong positive selection, or that region being responsible for reproductive isolation. Our study should serve as an important starting point in using a population genomics approach to further elucidate the biology of this important model organism.

RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe requires heat-shock molecular chaperones Hsp90 and Mas5.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Heat-shock molecular chaperone proteins (Hsps) promote the loading of small interfering RNA (siRNA) onto RNA interference (RNAi) effector complexes. While the RNAi process is coupled with heterochromatin assembly in several model organisms, it remains unclear whether the Hsps contribute to epigenetic gene regulation. In this study, we used the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a model organism and investigated the roles of Hsp90 and Mas5 (a nucleocytoplasmic type-I Hsp40 protein) in RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly. RESULTS:Using a genetic screen and biochemical analyses, we identified Hsp90 and Mas5 as novel silencing factors. Mutations in the genes encoding these factors caused derepression of silencing at the pericentromere, where heterochromatin is assembled in an RNAi-dependent manner, but not at the subtelomere, where RNAi is dispensable. The mutations also caused a substantial reduction in the level of dimethylation of histone H3 at Lys9 at the pericentromere, where association of the Argonaute protein Ago1 was also abrogated. Consistently, siRNA corresponding to the pericentromeric repeats was undetectable in these mutant cells. In addition, levels of Tas3, which is a protein in the RNA-induced transcriptional silencing complex along with Ago1, were reduced in the absence of Mas5. CONCLUSIONS:Our results suggest that the Hsps Hsp90 and Mas5 contribute to RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly. In particular, Mas5 appears to be required to stabilize Tas3 in vivo. We infer that impairment of Hsp90 and Hsp40 also may affect the integrity of the epigenome in other organisms.
