Project description:Hog1 bypasses stress-mediated downregulation of transcription by PolII redistribution and chromatin remodeling Keyword: genetic modification Three independent 200 ml cultures of wild-type strain were grown to mid-log phase in YPD rich medium at 30ºC
Project description:Cells are subjected to dramatic changes on gene expression upon environmental changes. Stress causes a general down-regulation of gene expression together with the induction of a set of stress-responsive genes. Genome wide localisation studies showed major changes on Pol II localisation towards stress-responsive genes in contrast to housekeeping genes. Pol II relocalisation requires of the Hog1 SAPK, which also associates at stress-responsive loci. Chromatin structure was not significantly altered upon stress except for those genes that displayed Hog1 association. Together, Hog1 serves to bypass the general down-regulation of gene expression by targeting RNA Pol II machinery and inducing chromatin remodeling at stress-responsive loci. Hog1 and Pol II ChIP-Seq and Mnase-Seq experiments in both strains WT and Hog1 mutant, for 2 conditions: Exposed and not exposed to osmostress

Project description:Gene expression was quantified in crz1 hog1 delete S. cerevisae cells over a time course following calcineurin activation by CaCl2. Cells were pretreated with buffer or the calcineurin inhibitor FK506 to allow the identification of calcineurin-regulated genes. We show that calcineurin-dependent downregulation of G1/S genes is partly dependent on the osmostress-activated kinase Hog1.
Project description:mRNA amount (RA) and Transcription rate (TR) analysis of W303-1a (wt) and hog1 mutant yeast strains growing in exponential phase in YPD subjected to osmotic stress This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE13096: Transcription rate analysis of wild type strain subjected to osmotic stress GSE13097: mRNA amount analysis of wild type strain subjected to osmotic stress GSE13098: Transcription rate analysis of W303 hog1 mutant strain subjected to osmotic stress GSE13099: mRNA amount analysis of W303 hog1 mutant strain subjected to osmotic stress Refer to individual Series Transcriptomic and transcription rate analysis by means of GRO of three independent replicates the yeast strain growing in exponential phase. Each time point replicate has been hybridized on a different macroarray (F11-F24). A single DNA genomic hybridization from the same labeling reaction was done on the same microarrays for normalization.
Project description:When challenged with osmotic shock, S. cerevisiae induces hundreds of genes, despite a global reduction in transcriptional capacity. The mechanisms that regulate this rapid reallocation of transcriptional resources are not known. Here we show that redistribution of RNA Pol II upon stress requires the stress-responsive MAP kinase Hog1. We find that Hog1 and RNA Pol II co-localize to open reading frames that bypass global transcriptional repression, and that these targets are specified by two osmotic stress-responsive transcription factors. The combination of reduced global transcription with a gene-specific override mechanism allows cells to rapidly switch their transcriptional program in response to stress.
