Project description:More than half of the protein-coding genes in bacteria are organized in polycistronic operons composed of two or more genes. Whether the operon organization maintains the stoichiometric expression of the genes within an operon remain under debate. In this study, we performed a label-free data-independent acquisition hyper reaction monitoring mass-spectrometry (HRM-MS) experiment to quantify the Escherichia coli proteome in exponential phase and quantified 93.6% of the cytosolic proteins, covering 67.9% and 56.0% of the translating polycistronic operons in BW25113 and MG1655 strains, respectively. We found the shorter operons tend to be more tightly controlled for stoichiometry than longer operons, and those operons for metabolic pathways are less controlled for stoichiometry compared with operons for protein complexes, illustrating the multifaceted nature of the operon-wise regulation: the operon-wise unified transcriptional level and gene-specific translational level. This multi-level regulation benefits the host by optimizing the efficiency of the productivity of metabolic pathways and maintenance of different types of protein complexes.

Project description:Genes clustered into polycistronic operons was thought a characteristic of bacteria and many other species. More than half protein-coding genes are organized in polycistronic operons composed of two or more than ten genes in bacterial genomes. Although the structure of operons have been studied precisely, how the member genes within operon maintain their stoichiometry expression is remain unknown. Using a highly accurate label-free absolute quantification method DIA (data-independent acquisition), we present a global analysis of Escherichia coli proteome, quantified 1607 proteins, including 59.1% of the known polycistronic operons. We found shorter operons tend to be more tightly controlled than longer operons, and those operons for metabolic pathways are less controlled for stoichiometry balance than those operons for protein complexes. Our results thus reveal the two-level regulation mode involving transcription and translation of operons would balance the stoichiometry expression of genes in polycistronic operons in different time-scale.

Project description:Methanococcus maripaludis is a methanogenic archaeon. Within its genome, there are two operons for membrane associated hydrogenases, eha and ehb. To investigate the regulation of ehb on the cell, an S40 mutant was constructed in such a way that a portion of the ehb operon was replaced by pac cassette in the wild type parental strain S2 (done by Whitman's group at the University of Georgia). The S40 and S2 strains were grown in 14N and 15N media with acetate separately. A biological replicate was made by switching the media. Mass spectrometry based quantitative proteomics were done on the mixtures to investigate the differences in expression patterns between S40 and S2.

Project description:More than half of the protein-coding genes in bacteria are organized in polycistronic operons composed of two or more genes. It remains under debate whether the operon organization maintains the stoichiometric expression of the genes within an operon. In this study, we performed a label-free data-independent acquisition hyper reaction monitoring mass-spectrometry (HRM-MS) experiment to quantify the Escherichia coli proteome in exponential phase and quantified 93.6% of the cytosolic proteins, covering 67.9% and 56.0% of the translating polycistronic operons in BW25113 and MG1655 strains, respectively. We found that the translational regulation contributes largely to the proteome complexity: the shorter operons tend to be more tightly controlled for stoichiometry than longer operons; the operons which mainly code for complexes is more tightly controlled for stoichiometry than the operons which mainly code for metabolic pathways. The gene interval (distance between adjacent genes in one operon) may serve as a regulatory factor for stoichiometry. The catalytic efficiency might be a driving force for differential expression of enzymes encoded in one operon. These results illustrated the multifaceted nature of the operon regulation: the operon unified transcriptional level and gene-specific translational level. This multi-level regulation benefits the host by optimizing the efficiency of the productivity of metabolic pathways and maintenance of different types of protein complexes.

Project description:Coexpression of proteins in response to pathway-inducing signals is the founding paradigm of gene regulation. Yet, it remains unexplored whether the relative abundance of coregulated proteins requires precise tuning. Here we present large-scale analyses of protein stoichiometry and corresponding regulatory strategies for 21 pathways and 67-224 operons in divergent bacteria separated by 0.6-2 billion years. Using end-enriched RNA-sequencing (Rend-seq) with single-nucleotide resolution, we found that many bacterial gene clusters encoding conserved pathways have undergone massive divergence in transcript abundance and architectures via remodeling of internal promoters and terminators. Remarkably, these evolutionary changes are compensated post-transcriptionally to maintain preferred stoichiometry of protein synthesis rates. Even more strikingly, in eukaryotic budding yeast, functionally analogous proteins that arose independently from bacterial counterparts also evolved to convergent in-pathway expression. The broad requirement for exact protein stoichiometries despite regulatory divergence provides an unexpected principle for building biological pathways both in nature and for synthetic activities.

Project description:Caenorhabditis elegans and its relatives are unique among animals, possibly even among eukaryotes, in having operons. In these regulated multigene transcription units, a polycistronic pre-mRNA is processed to monocistronic mRNAs by 3' end formation and trans-splicing utilizing a special snRNP, the SL2 snRNP, for downstream mRNAs1. Previously, the correlation between downstream location in an operon and SL2 trans-splicing has been strong, but anecdotal. Although only 28 operons have been reported previously, the complete sequence of the genome reveals numerous gene clusters. To determine how many represent operons, we probed full-genome microarrays for SL2-containing mRNAs. We found significant enrichment for about 1200 genes including most of a group of several hundred genes represented by cDNAs that contain SL2 sequence. Analysis of their genomic arrangements indicates that >90% are downstream genes, falling in 790 distinct operons. We conclude that the genome contains at least 1000 operons, 2- 8 genes in length, that contain ~15% of C. elegans genes. Most of the operons have not been reported previously, and numerous examples of co-transcription of genes encoding functionally related proteins are evident. Inspection of the operon list should reveal heretofore unknown functional relationships.
