Characterization of the CORVET complexes of Tetrahymena thermophila

ABSTRACT: In endolysosomal networks, two hetero-hexameric tethers called HOPS and CORVET are found widely throughout eukaryotes. The ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila is a unicellular organism with elaborate endolysosomal pathways. Curiously, Tetrahymena and related protozoa have lost HOPS. Tetrahymena encodes multiple paralogs of most CORVET subunits, assembled into six distinct hexameric complexes, including a distinct Vps8 subunit. Here we analyze the composition of these complexes immunoisolated by affinity capture using the Vps8-FLAG paralogs as bait.

Characterization of a novel membrane complex required for docking and regulated exocytosis of lysosome-related organelles in Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:In the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila, lysosome-related organelles called mucocysts accumulate at the cell periphery where they secrete their contents in response to extracellular events, a phenomenon termed regulated exocytosis. A forward genetic approach uncovered MDL1 (Mucocyst Discharge with a LamG domain) as essential gene for regulated exocytosis of mucocysts. The encoded protein, Mdl1p, is a 66 kD membrane-associated glycoprotein that localizes to mucocysts, and specifically to a tip domain that contacts the plasma membrane when the mucocyst is docked. Immunoisolation by affinity capture using Mdl1p-FLAG as bait, described here, revealed that Mdl1p forms a complex with 9 other proteins, all of them novel and largely restricted to Alveolates.

ChIP-Seq to determine the binding of enhancer binding proteins VnfA1 and VnfA3 grown in presence of vanadium or in iron-only conditions in Azotobacter vinelandii DJ.

Project description:The enhancer binding protein VnfA1 of Azotobacter vinelandii has two paralogs as well VnfA2 and VnfA3. This experiment was carried out to compare the binding sites of VnfA1 and VnfA3 under conditions of vanadium availability and its absence. This is important for the regulation of expression of alternative nitrogenase isoenzymes in response to metal availability.

Characterisation of cullin E3 ubiquitin ligases in trypanosomes

Project description:Trypanosomes have seven cullin paralogs, the majority lineage-specific. Six of those cullins (TbCul-A, TbCul-C, TbCul-D TbCul-E, TbCul-F and TbCul-G) were endogenously 3xHA-epitope tagged at the C-terminus. We used affinity capture/mass spectrometry to determine the composition of these cullin complexes. TbCul-A and TbCul-E function were further studied by analysis of proteome changes upon upon RNAi.

FMR1 targets distinct mRNA sequence elements to regulate protein expression [PAR-CLIP]

Project description:Fragile-X Syndrome (FXS) is a multi-organ disease leading to mental retardation, macro-orchidism in males, and premature ovarian insufficiency in female carriers. FXS is also a prominent monogenic disease associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). FXS is typically caused by the loss of FRAGILE X-MENTAL RETARDATION 1 (FMR1) expression, which encodes for the RNA-binding protein (RBP), FMR1 (or FMRP). We report the discovery of the RNA recognition elements (RREs), binding sites, and mRNA targets for wild-type and I304N mutant FMRP isoforms as well as its paralogs, FXR1 and FXR2. RRE frequency, ratio, and distribution determine target mRNA association with FMRP. Among highly-enriched targets, we identified many genes involved in ASD and demonstrate that FMRP can affect their protein levels in cell culture, mice, and human brain. Unexpectedly, we discovered that these targets are also dysregulated in Fmr1-/- mouse ovaries, showing signs of premature follicular overdevelopment. These results indicate that FMRP targets shared signaling pathways across different cellular contexts. As it is become increasingly appreciated that signaling pathways are important to FXS and ASD, our results here provide an invaluable molecular guide towards the pursuit of novel therapeutic targets for these devastating neurological disorders. PAR-CLIP profiling for wild-type and I304N mutant FMRP isoforms as well as paralogs, FXR1 and FXR2.

Genome-Wide Microarray Analysis of Gene Expression During Starvation in Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:Two genome-wide microarrays containing the predicted coding sequences (putative genes) for the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila were used to study gene expression in starved cells (starvation 0 hour and starvation 24 hour). Combining these two microarrays with 50 microarrays described in Miao et al. (2009) and 15 other microarrays, we constructed the Tetrahymena gene network (TGN) using three methods: the Pearson correlation coefficient, the Spearman correlation coefficient and the context likelihood of relatedness (CLR) algorithm. The accuracy and coverage of the three networks were evaluated using four conserved protein complexes in yeast, and the CLR network was found to be the best network, with a Z-score threshold 3.49. Then the TGN was partitioned, and 55 modules were found. In addition, analysis for the arbitrarily determined 1200 hubs showed that these hubs could be sorted into six groups according to expression profiles. We also investigated human disease orthologs in Tetrahymena that are missing in yeast and found evidence indicating that some of these were involved in the same process in Tetrahymena as in human. For starvation, CU428 cells were starved at 2x10^5 cells/ml in 10 mM Tris (pH 7.5) for 0 and 24 hours (referred to as S-0 and S-24, respectively).

A Tetrahymena Piwi protein and the exonuclease Xrn2 form a complex that is essential for ribosome biogenesis

Project description:Emerging evidence suggests that Ago/Piwi proteins function in the nucleus as well as the cytoplasm to control gene expression, but the mechanisms they employ in the nucleus remain poorly defined. The Tetrahymena thermophila Ago/Piwi protein Twi12 is essential for growth and functions in the nucleus. We show that Twi12 interacts with the exonuclease Xrn2. Twi12 functions to stabilize and localize Xrn2 in vivo, as well as activate its exonuclease activity in vitro. When Twi12 or Xrn2 are depleted, pre-rRNA processing intermediates accumulate and mature rRNA levels decline. RNA polymerase I and II (RNAP I and II) transcripts also accumulate. Twi12 function depends on small RNA (sRNA) binding, which is required for its nuclear import. Twi12-bound sRNAs are Dicer-independent 3' tRNA fragments that we propose may not be involved in sequence-specific base pairing to targets. Our findings suggest a role for tRNA fragments and an Ago/Piwi protein in global control of gene expression through interaction with a conserved exonuclease. One library is analyzed here: small RNAs associated with ZZF-tagged Twi12. Twi12 is the full-length version, which is extended by 17 amino acids at the N-terminus compared to the previously-reported Twi12. Specifically, the 16-22 nt reads were analyzed here.

Transcription profiling of human cholangiocarcinoma cells (cholangiocytes) expressing IL-6

Project description:The association between chronic inflammation and the development and progression of malignancy is exemplified in the biliary tract where persistent inflammation strongly predisposes to cholangiocarcinoma. The inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) enhances tumor growth in cholangiocarcinoma by altered gene expression via autocrine mechanisms. We therefore investigated the effect of chronic exposure to IL-6 on gene expression using malignant cholangiocytes stably transfected to overexpress IL-6. Comparison of gene expression identified several genes that were altered by enforced IL-6 expression. Experiment Overall Design: Mz-ChA-1 cells were stably transfected with a pTarget vector plasmid containing full length IL-6 under the control of a CMV promoter to generate Mz-IL6. Cells transfected with empty vector were used as control

Genome-Wide Microarray Analysis of Gene Expression During Starvation in Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:Four genome wide microarrays containing the predicted coding sequences (putative genes) for the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila used to study gene expression in starved cells (Starvation 0 hour and Starvation 9 hour, each two replicates). Combined these four microarrays with 50 microarrays described in Miao et al (2009, PMID: 19204800; GSE11300) and other 13 microarrays, we constructed the Tetrahymena gene network (TGN) using three methods: the Pearson correlation coefficient, the Spearman correlation coefficient and the context likelihood of relatedness (CLR) algorithm.

Control of agricultural traits by hc-siRNA associated MITEs in rice

Project description:Transposable elements (TEs) and repetitive sequences comprise over 40% of rice genome. Different TEs are tightly regulated by distinct epigenetic mechanisms. For example, the activities of LTR retrotransposon Tos17 and non-LTR retrotransposon LINE element Karma are uniquely regulated by histone H3K9 methylation and histone H3K4 demethylation, respectively. Miniature inverted repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are one of the most high-copy-number DNA transposons, which are interspersed around rice genome and might influence nearby gene expression. In plants, 24-nucleotide (24-nt) heterochromatic small interfering RNAs (hc-siRNAs) derived from repeats and TEs. To what extent hc-siRNA associated TEs affect gene expression and therefore contribute to agricultural traits in rice remains elusive. Here, we show that OsDCL3a, one of Dicer-Like 3 (DCL3) homolog, is primarily responsible for 24-nt hc-siRNA processing in rice. Impaired OsDCL3a displayed altered important agricultural traits in rice. We found that genome-wide (281,563) 24-nt hc-siRNA clusters were OsDCL3a-dependent, among which MITEs were significantly enriched. Impaired OsDCL3a caused significant overlapping between reduced hc-siRNAs from MITEs and elevated nearby gene expression. Intriguingly, genes involved in Gibberellin and Brassinosteroid homeostasis were identified as direct targets of OsDCL3a, which may attribute to dwarfism and enlarged flag leaf angle upon OsDCL3a deficiency. Our work uncovers OsDCL3a-dependent hc-siRNAs derived from MITEs as broad spectrum of regulators for fine-tuning gene expression, and this observation may reflect a conserved mechanism in other higher plants with dispersed repeat- or TE-rich genomes. Examination of OsDCL3a-dependent hc-siRNAs derived from MITEs.
