Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Drosophila photoreceptors in response to blue light
| PRJNA418127 | ENA
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to characterize the transcript levels of genes in Drosophila photoreceptor neurons in response to blue light. Using transcriptome profiling of isolated photoreceptor nuclei, we analyzed the changes in gene expression that occur in response to 3h of blue light exposure at 1 or 6 days post-eclosion. We identified sets of genes with both up-regulated and down-regulated expression in response to blue light at either age.

Project description:We investigated light dependent gene expression changes in the marine ochrophyte Nannochloropsis oceanica CCMP1779. These algae have several putative blue light photoreceptors but appear to lack red light photoreceptors. To study early light signaling in N. oceanica and avoid as much as possible secondary downstream events, we quantified gene expression changes in dark-adapted cells after a short blue or red light pulse. More genes were differentially expressed under blue than under red light. In addition, fold change in expression was smaller for the red light-treated samples. For example, the median fold change of induced genes was 3 for blue light and 2.5 for red light. Moreover, hierarchical cluster analysis showed that gene expression after red light treatment was more similar to the dark control than after blue light treatment.

Project description:Aureochromes represent a unique type of blue-light photoreceptors that possess a blue-light sensing flavin-binding LOV-domain and a DNA-binding bZIP domain. Therefore, in contrast to other photoreceptors, aureochromes are considered as light-driven transcription factors. As a member of the essential group of marine primary producers, the pennate diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum possesses four aureochromes (PtAUREO1a, 1b, 1c, 2). We here show a dramatic change in the global gene expression pattern of P. tricornutum cells after a shift from red to blue light. About 75% of the genes show significantly changed transcript levels already after 10 and 60 min of blue light exposure, which includes genes of major transcription factors as well as other photoreceptors. Very surprisingly, in two independent PtAureo1a knockout lines, this light induced regulation of gene expression is almost completely abolished. Such a massive and fast transcriptional change depending on only one single photoreceptor is so far unprecedented. We hence conclude that PtAUREO1a plays a key role in light regulation.

Project description:Sun-loving plants have the ability to detect and avoid shading through sensing of both blue and red light wavelengths. Higher plant cryptochromes (CRYs) control how plants modulate growth in response to changes in blue light. For growth under a canopy, where blue light is diminished, CRY1 and CRY2 perceive this change and respond by directly contacting two bHLH transcription factors, PIF4 and PIF5. These factors are also known to be controlled by phytochromes, the red/far-red photoreceptors; however, transcriptome analyses indicate that the gene regulatory programs induced by the different light wavelengths are distinct. Our results indicate that CRYs signal by modulating PIF activity genome-wide, and that these factors integrate binding of different plant photoreceptors to facilitate growth changes under different light conditions. We performed whole-genome chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing (ChIP-Seq) analysis on 5 day old Flash-CRY2, PIF4-Flash and PIF5-Flash treated in low blue-light for 16h.

We performed whole-genome transcriptome (mRNA-seq) analysis on 5-day-old Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia wild-type (WT) and pif4pif5 seedlings exposed to low blue-light (LBL) or mock-treated for 1, 6 and 24 hours. In addition we performed mRNA-seq on WT, 35S::PIF4-9xMyc-6x-His-3xFlag(Flash) and 35S::PIF5-9xMyc-6x-His-3xFlag (Flash) seedlings treated with LBL or mock-treated for 16 hours.

Project description:Diatoms, albeit being only distantly related with higher plants, harbour a plant-like cryptochrome (CryP) that was proposed to act as a photoreceptor required for the regulation of photosynthetic proteins. Importantly, plant cryptochromes are assumed to be involved in the regulation of developmental processes that are only needed in multicellular organisms; their role in the unicellular diatoms to date is mostly enigmatic. To elucidate the function of this plant-like cryptochrome in a unicellular species, we examined the role of CryP in the regulation of transcription in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum by comparative RNA-seq of wild type and CryP knock-down mutants, under prolonged darkness and one hour after onset of blue light. In total, mRNAs of 12,298 genes were identified and more than 70% of the genes could be sorted into functional bins. We here show that CryP influences gene expression in three different ways: some genes are regulated by CryP under blue light only, others independent of the light condition and surprisingly some are regulated by CryP only in darkness. Changes under blue light included only around 4% of total genes, and genes regulated in any condition were distributed over almost all functional categories. Expression of photosynthesis genes was lowered by CryP under BL, in contrast to the overall enhancement in wild-type cells under the same conditions. Interestingly, CryP also exerted an influence on two other photoreceptors: the genes for phytochrome (Pt-DPH) and CPF1, another cryptochrome of Phaeodactylum tricornutum, were down-regulated by CryP independent of the light condition. However, the regulatory effects of the different photoreceptors on transcriptional output were independent. The influence of CryP on the expression of other photoreceptors hints to the existence of a regulatory signalling network in diatoms that includes several cryptochromes and phytochrome, whereby CryP acts as a regulator of transcript abundance under light as well as in darkness.
