De novo transcriptome of the cosmopolitan dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae to identify genes with biotechnological interests

ABSTRACT: Dinoflagellates are phytoplanktonic organisms found in both freshwater and marine habitats. They are often studied because related to harmful algal blooms responsible for impacts on ecosystem functioning, economic damages for aquaculture and fishery industries and/or deleterious impacts for human health. In addition they are also known to produce bioactive compounds, such as for the treatment of cancer or beneficial effects for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The dinoflagellate Amphidinium sp. is a cosmopolitan dinoflagellate species known to produce both cytotoxic and beneficial compounds. However, several studies reported that environmental changes (e.g. nutrient starvation, UV radiation and ocean acidification) may alter this production. The aim of this study was to sequence the full transcriptome of the dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae in both nitrogen- starved and -repleted culturing conditions (1) to evaluated its response to nitrogen starvation, (2) to look for possible polyketide synthases (PKSs), involved in the synthesis of various compounds, in this studied clone, (3) if present, to evaluate if nutrient starvation can influence PKS activity, (4) to test strain cytotoxicity on human cells and (5) to look for other possible enzymes/proteins of biotechnological interest.

Abundant mRNA m1A modification in dinoflagellates: a new layer of gene regulation [m1A-seq-TGIRT]

Project description:Dinoflagellates, a class of unicellular eukaryotic phytoplankton, exhibit minimal transcriptional regulation, representing a unique model for exploring gene expression. The biosynthesis, distribution, regulation, and function of mRNA N1-methyladenosine (m1A) remain controversial due to its limited presence in typical eukaryotic mRNA. This study found that m1A, rather than N6-methyladenosine (m6A), is the most prevalent internal mRNA modification in various dinoflagellate species, with an asymmetrically distribution along mature transcripts. In Amphidinium carterae, we identified 6549 m1A sites characterized by a non-tRNA T-loop-like sequence motif within the transcripts of 3196 genes, many involved in regulating carbon and nitrogen metabolism. With enrichment within 3'UTR, dinoflagellate mRNA m1A exhibits negative correlation with translation efficiency. Notably, nitrogen depletion led to a significant decrease in mRNA m1A. Furthermore, our analysis revealed that distinctive patterns of m1A modification influence the expression of metabolism-related genes through translation control. Thus, this study provides a comprehensive map of m1A in dinoflagellate mRNA, highlighting its crucial role as a post-transcriptional regulatory layer and enhancing the understanding of mRNA m1A modification.

The transcriptome of Tetraselmis suecica reveals new insights on green algae response to nitrogen starvation

Project description:Nitrogen starvation is an efficient environmental pressure used to increase lipid accumulation and oil droplet formation in microalgal cells. Various studies focused on metabolic changes occurring in microalgae in nitrogen starvation conditions, but the mechanisms at the basis of these changes are not completely understood. Between microalgae, green algae, with more than 7000 species growing in a variety of habitats, have been frequently studied for energy purposes, but also as source of bioactive extracts/compounds. In this study, de novo transcriptome of the green algae Tetraselmis suecica has been performed in order to (1) deeply study its response to nitrogen starvation, (2) to look for enzymes with antioxidant capacity and for polyketide synthases (PKSs), (3) if present, to evaluate if nutrient starvation can influence their expression levels.

Characterization of the enzyme for 5-hydroxymethyluridine production and its role in silencing transposable elements in dinoflagellates

Project description:Dinoflagellate chromosomes are extraordinary, as their organization is independent of architectural nucleosomes unlike typical eukaryotes and shows a cholesteric liquid crystal state. 5-hydroxymethyluridine (5hmU) is present at unusually high levels and its function remains an enigma in dinoflagellates chromosomal DNA for several decades. Here, we demonstrate that 5hmU contents vary among different dinoflagellates and are generated through thymidine hydroxylation. Importantly, we identified the enzyme, which is a putative dinoflagellate TET/JBP homologue, catalyzing 5hmU production using both in vivo and in vitro biochemical assays. Based on the near-chromosomal level genome assembly of dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae, we depicted a comprehensive 5hmU landscape and found that 5hmU loci are significantly enriched in repeat elements. Moreover, inhibition of 5hmU via dioxygenase inhibitor leads to transcriptional activation of 5hmU-marked transposable elements (TEs), implying that 5hmU appears to serve as an epigenetic mark for silencing transposon. Together, our results revealed the biogenesis, genome-wide landscape and molecular function of dinoflagellate 5hmU, providing mechanistic insight into the function of this enigmatic DNA mark.

The influence of symbiosis on the proteome of the symbiotic dinoflagellate Breviolum

Project description:The physiology and cellular mechanisms of the dinoflagellate symbionts of cnidarians, the Symbiodiniaceae, change as a response to symbiosis, nutrient availability, and their surrounding microhabitat, but the underlying processes are poorly understood. Here, we employed liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry-based proteomics to elucidate the changes associated with the symbiotic and nutritional states of Breviolum minutum, a native symbiont of the sea anemone Exaiptasia diaphana. Both symbiosis and nutritional state had significant impacts on the B. minutum proteome. B. minutum in hospite showed increased abundance of proteins that are involved in phosphoinositol manipulation (e.g., glycerophosphoinositol permease 1 and phosphatidylinositol phosphatase), potentially as a means of interpartner signalling to prevent host phagosomal maturation. Proteins involved in carbon concentration and fixation (e.g. carbonic anhydrase, V-type ATPase) and nitrogen assimilation (e.g. glutamine synthase) were upregulated in ex hospite B. minutum, possibly due to nitrogen limitation by host in hospite and a lack of host carbon concentration mechanisms when ex hospite, respectively. Photosystem proteins increased in abundance at high nutrient levels, as were proteins involved in antioxidant mechanisms (e.g. superoxide dismutase, glutathione s-transferase). Proteins involved in iron metabolism was also affected by nutrient state, indicating increased iron demand and uptake in low nutrient treatments. These results provide better insight on the cellular mechanisms of symbiosis and provides potential target pathways for investigating a functional cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis.
