Utilizing single-cell variations to reveal environment-dependent tuning of network connectivity in human macrophages (single cell RT-PCR)

ABSTRACT: Cell-to-cell expression variation is a prevalent feature of cell populations, but the environmental, cellular and biochemical conditions under which variability in the level of one gene can or cannot be propagated to affect that of other genes in the underlying network within cells remain poorly understood. Here we explore this issue using single-cell qPCR and bulk-level RNAseq, CAGE, and ChIPseq analysis of human macrophages exposed to different cytokine environments. Our analyses reveal that cellular adaptation to different environments could involve tuning the extent of such variability (or information) propagation (IP) in the network, thereby shaping environment-dependent patterns of gene-gene correlations and phenotypic heterogeneity across single cells. We find that IP can be regulated through modification of multiple network and signaling parameters, such as the degree of transcription factor-chromatin interactions. Our findings thus suggest that adaptive IP may be a widespread, yet underexplored, aspect of cellular adaptation to distinct environments.

Analysis of sigma factor-dependent gene expression in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by RNA sequencing

Project description:Sigma factors are master regulators of bacterial transcription which direct gene expression of specific subsets of genes. In particular, alternative sigma factors are well-known to be key players of bacterial adaptation to changing environments. To elucidate the regulatory network of sigma factors in P. aeruginosa, an integrative approach including sigma factor-dependent mRNA profiling was performed to define the primary regulon of each sigma factor.

Regulation of Energy Metabolism by the Extracytoplasmic Function (ECF) σ factors of Arcobacter butzleri

Project description:The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors are fundamental for bacterial adaptation to distinct environments and for survival under different stress conditions. The emerging pathogen Arcobacter butzleri possesses seven putative pairs of σ/anti-σ factors belonging to the ECF family. Here, we report the identification of the genes regulated by five out of the seven A. butzleri ECF σ factors. Three of the ECF σ factors play an apparent role in transport, energy generation and the maintainance of redox balance. Several genes like the nap, sox and tct genes are regulated by more than one ECF σ factor indicating that the A. butzleri ECF σ factors form a network of overlapping regulons. In contrast to other eubacteria, these A. butzleri ECF regulons appear to primarily regulate responses to changing environments in order to meet metabolic needs instead of an obvious role in stress adaptation.

Genetic properties underlying transcriptional plasticity and evolvability in E. coli

Project description:The rate and direction of phenotypic evolution depends on the availability of phenotypic variants induced either genetically or environmentally for selection act upon. Theoretical suggest that genetic interactions between genes governing phenotypes could explain how the bias in phenotypic variability arises. However, it remains unknown whether the phenotypic variability is explained by real known genetic interactions as expected. To address this question, we analyzed transcriptional variability in a model microorganism, Escherichia coli, in response to different environmental and genetic perturbations. Thanks to the rich knowledge of the genetic interactions of E. coli, we identified common genetic properties that potentially affect transcriptional variability in both environmental and genetic causes. These empirical evidences support the relevance of the genetic interactions to shape phenotypic variability that is shared by different perturbations. Our results provide a mechanistic insight into how evolution learns from past environments to generalize to new environments.

Zinc-Induced Transposition of Insertion Sequence Elements Contributes to Increased Adaptability of Cupriavidus metallidurans

Project description:Bacteria can respond to adverse environments by increasing their genomic variability and subsequently facilitating adaptive evolution. To demonstrate this, the contribution of Insertion Sequence (IS) elements to the genetic adaptation of Cupriavidus metallidurans AE126 to toxic zinc concentrations was determined. This derivative of type strain CH34, devoid of its main zinc resistance determinant, is still able to increase its zinc resistance level. Specifically, upon plating on toxic zinc medium, resistant variants arose in which a compromised cnrYX regulatory locus caused derepression of CnrH sigma factor activity and concomitant induction of the corresponding RND-driven cnrCBA efflux system. Late-occurring zinc resistant variants likely arose in response to the selective conditions, as they were enriched in cnrYX disruptions caused by specific IS elements whose transposase expression was found to be zinc-responsive. Interestingly, deletion of cnrH, and consequently CnrH-dependent adaptation potential, still enabled adaptation by transposition of IS elements (ISRme5 and IS1086) that provided outward-directed promoters driving cnrCBAT transcription. Finally, adaptation to zinc by IS reshuffling can also enhance the adaptation to subsequent environmental challenges. Thus, transposition of IS elements can be induced by stress conditions and play a multifaceted, pivotal role in the adaptation to these and subsequent stress conditions.
