Project description:Adaptation of Lactococcus lactis towards progressive carbon starvation is mediated by three different types of transcriptomic responses: i) global responses, i.e. general decrease of functions linked to bacterial growth and lack of induction of the general stress response, ii) specific responses functionally related to glucose exhaustion, i.e. under expression of central metabolism genes, induction of alternative sugars transport and metabolism genes, induction of arginine deiminase pathway genes and iii) other responses never described previously during carbon starvation. Keywords: stress response, time course

Project description:Cytoplasmic Ca(2+) is known to regulate Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) activity by binding to two adjacent Ca(2+)-binding domains (CBD1 and CBD2) located in the large intracellular loop between transmembrane segments 5 and 6. We investigated Ca(2+)-dependent movements as changes in FRET between exchanger proteins tagged with CFP or YFP at position 266 within the large cytoplasmic loop. Data indicate that the exchanger assembles as a dimer in the plasma membrane. Addition of Ca(2+) decreases the distance between the cytoplasmic loops of NCX pairs. The Ca(2+)-dependent movements detected between paired NCXs were abolished by mutating the Ca(2+) coordination sites in CBD1 (D421A, E451A, and D500V), whereas disruption of the primary Ca(2+) coordination site in CBD2 (E516L) had no effect. Thus, the Ca(2+)-induced conformational changes of NCX dimers arise from the movement of CBD1. FRET studies of CBD1, CBD2, and CBD1-CBD2 peptides displayed Ca(2+)-dependent movements with different apparent affinities. CBD1-CBD2 showed a Ca(2+)-dependent phenotype mirroring full-length NCX but distinct from both CBD1 and CBD2.

Project description:A universal feature of the response to stress and nutrient limitation is transcriptional upregulation of genes encoding proteins important for survival. Interestingly, under many of these conditions overall protein synthesis levels are reduced, thereby dampening the stress response at the level of protein expression. For example, during glucose starvation in yeast, translation is rapidly and reversibly repressed, yet transcription of many stress- and glucose-repressed genes is increased. Using ribosome profiling and microscopy, we found that this transcriptionally upregulated gene set consists of two classes: (1) one producing mRNAs that are preferentially translated during glucose limitation and are diffusely localized in the cytoplasm – this class includes many heat shock protein mRNAs; and (2) another producing mRNAs that are poorly translated during glucose limitation, have high rates of translation initiation, and are concentrated in foci that co-localize with P bodies and stress granules – this class is enriched for glucose metabolism mRNAs. Remarkably, the information specifying differential localization and translation of these two classes of mRNAs is encoded in the promoter sequence – promoter responsiveness to heat shock factor (Hsf1) specifies diffuse cytoplasmic localization and preferential translation upon glucose starvation, whereas different promoter elements upstream of genes encoding poorly translated glucose metabolism mRNAs direct these mRNAs to RNA granules under glucose starvation. Thus, promoter sequences and transcription factor binding can influence not only mRNA levels, but also subcellular localization of mRNAs and the efficiency with which they are translated, enabling cells to tailor protein production to environmental conditions.

Project description:In cardiac mitochondria, matrix free Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]m) is primarily regulated by Ca(2+) uptake and release via the Ca(2+) uniporter (CU) and Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCE) as well as by Ca(2+) buffering. Although experimental and computational studies on the CU and NCE dynamics exist, it is not well understood how matrix Ca(2+) buffering affects these dynamics under various Ca(2+) uptake and release conditions, and whether this influences the stoichiometry of the NCE. To elucidate the role of matrix Ca(2+) buffering on the uptake and release of Ca(2+), we monitored Ca(2+) dynamics in isolated mitochondria by measuring both the extra-matrix free [Ca(2+)] ([Ca(2+)]e) and [Ca(2+)]m. A detailed protocol was developed and freshly isolated mitochondria from guinea pig hearts were exposed to five different [CaCl2] followed by ruthenium red and six different [NaCl]. By using the fluorescent probe indo-1, [Ca(2+)]e and [Ca(2+)]m were spectrofluorometrically quantified, and the stoichiometry of the NCE was determined. In addition, we measured NADH, membrane potential, matrix volume and matrix pH to monitor Ca(2+)-induced changes in mitochondrial bioenergetics. Our [Ca(2+)]e and [Ca(2+)]m measurements demonstrate that Ca(2+) uptake and release do not show reciprocal Ca(2+) dynamics in the extra-matrix and matrix compartments. This salient finding is likely caused by a dynamic Ca(2+) buffering system in the matrix compartment. The Na(+)- induced Ca(2+) release demonstrates an electrogenic exchange via the NCE by excluding an electroneutral exchange. Mitochondrial bioenergetics were only transiently affected by Ca(2+) uptake in the presence of large amounts of CaCl2, but not by Na(+)- induced Ca(2+) release.

Project description:The binding of Ca(2+) to two adjacent Ca(2+)-binding domains, CBD1 and CBD2, regulates ion transport in the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger. As sensors for intracellular Ca(2+), the CBDs form electrostatic switches that induce the conformational changes required to initiate and sustain Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange. Depending on the presence of a few key residues in the Ca(2+)-binding sites, zero to four Ca(2+) ions can bind with affinities between 0.1 to 20 ?m. Importantly, variability in CBD2 as a consequence of alternative splicing modulates not only the number and affinities of the Ca(2+)-binding sites in CBD2 but also the Ca(2+) affinities in CBD1.

Project description:Voltage-gated Na and Ca2+ channels comprise distinct ion channel superfamilies, yet the carboxy tails of these channels exhibit high homology, hinting at a long-shared and purposeful module. For different Ca2+ channels, carboxyl-tail interactions with calmodulin do elaborate robust and similar forms of Ca2+ regulation. However, Na channels have only shown subtler Ca2+ modulation that differs among reports, challenging attempts at unified understanding. Here, by rapid Ca2+ photorelease onto Na channels, we reset this view of Na channel regulation. For cardiac-muscle channels (NaV1.5), reported effects from which most mechanistic proposals derive, we observe no Ca2+ modulation. Conversely, for skeletal-muscle channels (NaV1.4), we uncover fast Ca2+ regulation eerily similar to that of Ca2+ channels. Channelopathic myotonia mutations halve NaV1.4 Ca2+ regulation, and transplanting the NaV1.4 carboxy tail onto Ca2+ channels recapitulates Ca2+ regulation. Thus, we argue for the persistence and physiological relevance of an ancient Ca2+ regulatory module across Na and Ca2+ channels.

Project description:The cardiac Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) regulates cellular [Ca(2+)](i) and plays a central role in health and disease, but its molecular regulation is poorly understood. Here we report on how protons affect this electrogenic transporter by modulating two critically important NCX C(2) regulatory domains, Ca(2+) binding domain-1 (CBD1) and CBD2. The NCX transport rate in intact cardiac ventricular myocytes was measured as a membrane current, I(NCX), whereas [H(+)](i) was varied using an ammonium chloride "rebound" method at constant extracellular pH 7.4. At pH(i) = 7.2 and [Ca(2+)](i) < 120 nM, I(NCX) was less than 4% that of its maximally Ca(2+)-activated value. I(NCX) increases steeply at [Ca(2+)](i) between 130-150 nM with a Hill coefficient (n(H)) of 8.0 ± 0.7 and K(0.5) = 310 ± 5 nM. At pH(i) = 6.87, the threshold of Ca(2+)-dependent activation of I(NCX) was shifted to much higher [Ca(2+)](i) (600-700 nM), and the relationship was similarly steep (n(H) = 8.0±0.8) with K(0.5) = 1042 ± 15 nM. The V(max) of Ca(2+)-dependent activation of I(NCX) was not significantly altered by low pH(i). The Ca(2+) affinities for CBD1 (0.39 ± 0.06 μM) and CBD2 (K(d) = 18.4 ± 6 μM) were exquisitely sensitive to [H(+)], decreasing 1.3-2.3-fold as pH(i) decreased from 7.2 to 6.9. This work reveals for the first time that NCX can be switched off by physiologically relevant intracellular acidification and that this depends on the competitive binding of protons to its C(2) regulatory domains CBD1 and CBD2.

Project description:Histone tail modificationscan greatly influencechromatin-associated processes. Asymmetrically modified nucleosomes exist inmultiple cell types; however,whether modifications on both sister histones contribute equally to chromatin dynamicsremainselusive. Here, we devised a bivalent nucleosome system thatallowedfor the constitutive assembly of asymmetrically modified sister histone H3s in nucleosomes inSaccharomyces cerevisiae. The sister H3K36 methylationsaffectedcryptic transcription in gene coding regions, whereassister H3K79 methylation had cooperative effectsongene silencing near telomeres.H3K4 methylation on sister histonesplayed an independent role in suppressing the recruitmentof the Gal4 activator and inhibitingGAL1transcription. Under starvation stress, the expression of glycometabolism pathway geneswasfinetuned by sisterH3K4 methylation.Thus,different modifications on sister histones act either cooperatively or independentlyto regulate transcription in response to external stimuli.
