Project description:Strand specific RNA sequencing of S. pombe revealed a highly structured programme of ncRNA expression at over 600 loci. Waves of antisense transcription accompanied sexual differentiation. A substantial proportion of ncRNA arose from mechanisms previously considered to be largely artefactual, including improper 3’ termination and bi-directional transcription. Constitutive induction of the entire spk1+, spo4+, dis1+ and spo6+ antisense transcripts from an integrated, ectopic, locus disrupted their respective meiotic functions. This ability of antisense transcripts to disrupt gene function when expressed in trans suggests that cis production at native loci during sexual differentiation may also control gene function. Consistently, insertion of a marker gene adjacent to the dis1+ antisense start site mimicked ectopic antisense expression in reducing the levels of this microtubule regulator and abolishing the microtubule-dependent “horsetail” stage of meiosis. Antisense production had no impact at any of these loci when the RNAi machinery was removed. Thus, far from being simply ‘genome chatter’, this extensive ncRNA landscape constitutes a fundamental component in the controls that drive the complex programme of sexual differentiation in S. pombe. Thorough interrogation of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe transcriptome during sexual differentiation using strand-specific total RNA sequencing (AB SOLiD 3.0 and 3.0+). A total of 19 samples were analysed by two separate machine runs (henceforth first and second runs, respectively). In the first machine run the following 5 samples were processed (on a single sequencing slide): Vegetative haploid (strain IH5974), pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at vegetative growth (0) and pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at 3, 5 and 10 hours following temperature shift from 25ºC to 32ºC to induce meiosis by Pat1 inactivation. In the second machine run the following 14 samples were processed (on two sequencing slides): Vegetative haploid (IH5974), pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at vegetative growth (0) and pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at 3, 5 and 10 hours following the temperature shift (a biological replicate of the first machine run). In addition, asynchronous IH3365 (wild type diploid) was also sequenced to enable a series of pair-wise haploid/diploid comparisons between itself, asynchronous haploid (IH5974) and pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at vegetative growth. Finally, to find putative targets of the two bzip transcription factors atf21 and atf31, we sequenced RNA extracts from IH8832 (atf21.delta diploid) and IH8814 (atf31.delta diploid) before (0), and 3, 5, and 10 hours after the temperature shift, while the pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at vegetative growth (0) and pat1.114 diploid (IH2912) at 3, 5 and 10 hours following the temperature shift were used as reference for this analysis.

Project description:Recent studies of the Puf family of RNA-binding proteins revealed that besides their traditional roles in translational regulation of mRNAs, some Puf proteins are also involved in ribosome biogenesis by binding rRNA. In this study, we report the role of a Puf-like protein (Puf3) in ribosome biogenesis in Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium yoelii. Secondary structure prediction suggested that the RNA-binding domain of Puf3 consists of 11 pumilio repeats, similar to human Puf-A/yeast Puf6, which is involved in ribosome biogenesis. Neither pfpuf3 nor pypuf3 could be genetically disrupted, suggesting they may be essential for the intraerythrocytic developmental cycle (IDC). A time-course study of PfPuf3 protein indicated that PfPuf3 was expressed during the entire IDC, with peak expression in early trophozoites. Cellular fractionation of PfPuf3 revealed that it is preferentially partitioned to the nuclear rather than the cytoplasmic fractions, which is consistent with a nuclear localization of PfPuf3::GFP and PyPuf3::GFP as seen by immunofluorescence. Further, we found PfPuf3 co-localized with a well-known nucleolus maker, PfNop1, demonstrating that PfPuf3 is a nucleolar protein. This localization is in contrast to the cytoplasmic localization of PfPuf1 and PfPuf2, but matches the localization of human Puf-A and yeast Puf6. Affinity purification of a C-terminal PTP-tagged variant of PfPuf3 revealed an association with 32 proteins associated with the 60S ribosome, and an enrichment of 28S rRNA and internal transcribed spacer 2. Taken together, these results demonstrate a nucleolar localization of PfPuf3 and suggest an essential function of PfPuf3 in ribosomal biogenesis.

Project description:Mitochondrial mRNAs encode key subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation complexes that produce energy for the cell. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mitochondrial translation is under the control of translational activators, specific to each mRNA. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which more closely resembles the human system by its mitochondrial DNA structure and physiology, most translational activators appear to be either lacking, or recruited for post-translational functions. By combining bioinformatics, genetic and biochemical approaches we identified two interacting factors, Cbp7 and Cbp8, controlling Cytb production in S. pombe. We show that their absence affects cytb mRNA stability and decreases the accumulation of the Cytb protein. We further identified two classes of Cbp7/Cbp8 partners and showed that they modulated Cytb or Cox1 synthesis. First, two isoforms of bS1m small mitoribosomal subunits, that appear mutually exclusive and confer translational specificity. Second, a complex of four proteins dedicated to Cox1 synthesis, which includes an RNA helicase that interacts with the mitochondrial ribosome. Our results suggest that S. pombecontains, in addition to complexes of translational activators, a heterogeneous population of mitochondrial ribosomes that could specifically modulate translation depending on the mRNA translated, in order to optimally balance the production of different respiratory complex subunits.

Project description:The Puf family of RNA-binding proteins regulate the expression of genes by controlling protein synthesis or stimulating RNA decay. Puf3p is one of six Puf-family members in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Puf3p has been characterised previously as regulating mRNA decay of nuclear mRNAs that encode for mitochondrial proteins. We undertook a series of genome wide approaches to identify an expanded set of Puf3p target mRNAs and to quantitatively assess the impact of loss of PUF3 on the expression control in actively growing wild type and puf3Δ strains. Here we report our quantifications of relative protein levels. The data suggest that loss of Puf3p only impacts on a small proportion of the proteins encoded by its mRNA targets.

Project description:The phosphorylation of proteins modulates various functions of proteins and plays an important role in regulation of cell signaling. In the recent years, the label-free quantitative (LFQ) phos-phoproteomics has become the powerful tool to analyze the phosphorylation of proteins within the complex samples. Despite the great progress, the studies of protein phosphorylations are still limited in throughput, robustness, and reproducibility, hampering analyses that involve multiple perturbations, such as those needed to follow the dynamics of phosphoproteomes. To address these challenges, we introduce here the LFQ phosphoproteomics workflow that is based on Fe-IMAC phosphopeptide enrichment followed by strong anion exchange (SAX) and porous graphitic carbon (PGC) fractionation strategies. We applied this workflow to analyze the whole-cell phosphoproteome of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Using the strategy, we identified 8353 phosphosites from which 1274 were newly identified. This provides the sig-nificant addition to the S. pombe phosphoproteome. Results of our study highlight that combining of PGC and SAX fractionation strategies substantially increases the robustness and specificity of LFQ phosphoproteomics. Overall, the presented LFQ phosphoproteomics workflow opens the door for studies that would get better insight into the complexity of the protein kinase functions of the fission yeast S. pombe.

Project description:The Puf family of RNA-binding proteins regulate gene expression by controlling protein synthesis or stimulating RNA decay. Puf3p is one of six related proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae characterised as targeting and regulating decay of nuclear-encoded mRNAs specifying mitochondrial proteins. Much prior work has examined how Puf3p regulates COX17 mRNA. We undertook a genome-wide approach to quantitatively assess the impact of loss of PUF3 on gene expression. Comparing transcript levels in wild-type and puf3∆ cells revealed that that only a small fraction of mRNA levels alter, suggesting Puf3p determines mRNA stability for only some target mRNAs.

Project description:Hrp3_Purification from Schizosaccharomyces pombe 972h- Eukaryotic genome is composed of repeating units of nucleosomes to form chromatin arrays. A canonical gene is marked by nucleosome free region (NFR) at its 5’ end followed by uniformly spaced arrays of nucleosomes. In fission yeast we show both biochemically and in vivo that both Hrp1 and Hrp3 are key determinants of uniform spacing of genic arrays.

Project description:We have identified a family of six hexose transporter genes (Ght1 to Ght6) in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Sequence homology to Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mammalian hexose transporters (Hxtp and GLUTp, respectively) and secondary-structure predictions of 12 transmembrane domains for each of the Ght proteins place them into the sugar porter subfamily within the major facilitator superfamily. Interestingly, among this sugar porter family, the emerging S. pombe hexose transporter family clusters are separate from monosaccharide transporters of other yeasts (S. cerevisiae, Kluyveromyces lactis, and Candida albicans) and of humans, suggesting that these proteins form a distinct structural family of hexose transporters. Expression of the Ght1, Ght2, Ght5, and Ght6 genes in the S. cerevisiae mutant RE700A may functionally complement its D-glucose uptake-deficient phenotype. Northern blot analysis and reverse transcription-PCR showed that among all Ght's of S. pombe, Ght5 is the most prominently expressed hexose transporter. Ght1p, Ght2p, and Ght5p displayed significantly higher specificities for D-glucose than for D-fructose. Analysis of the previously described S. pombe D-glucose transport-deficient mutant YGS-5 revealed that this strain is defective in the Ght1, Ght5, and Ght6 genes. Based on an analysis of three S. pombe strains bearing single or double mutations in Ght3 and Ght4, we conclude that the Ght3p function is required for D-gluconate transport in S. pombe. The function of Ght4p remains to be clarified. Ght6p exhibited a slightly higher affinity to D-fructose than to D-glucose, and among the Ght's it is the transporter with the highest specificity for D-fructose.

Project description:The actin cytoskeleton plays a fundamental role in eukaryotic cells. Its reorganization is regulated by a plethora of actin-modulating proteins, such as a-actinin. In higher organisms, α-actinin is characterized by the presence of three distinct structural domains: an N-terminal actin-binding domain and a C-terminal region with EF-hand motif separated by a central rod domain with four spectrin repeats. Sequence analysis has revealed that the central rod domain of α-actinin from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe consists of only two spectrin repeats. To obtain a firmer understanding of the structure and function of this unconventional α-actinin, we have cloned and characterized each structural domain. Our results show that this a-actinin isoform is capable of forming dimers and that the rod domain is required for this. However, its actin-binding and cross-linking activity appears less efficient compared to conventional α-actinins. The solved crystal structure of the actin-binding domain indicates that the closed state is stabilised by hydrogen bonds and a salt bridge not present in other α-actinins, which may reduce the affinity for actin.

Project description:BackgroundConjugation of the ubiquitin-like modifier Nedd8 to cullins is critical for the function of SCF-type ubiquitin ligases and thus facilitates ubiquitin conjugation and ultimately degradation of SCF substrates, including several cell cycle regulators. Like ubiquitin, Nedd8 is produced as a precursor that must first be processed before it becomes active. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae this is carried out exclusively by the enzyme Yuh1.ResultsHere we show that in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the Yuh1 orthologue, Uch1, is not the sole Nedd8 processing enzyme. Instead it appears that deubiquitylating enzymes can efficiently process the Nedd8 precursor in vivo.ConclusionsSeveral enzymes contribute to Nedd8 precursor processing including a number of deubiquitylating enzymes.
