Whole-body proteome of the marine annelid Hediste diversicolor LC-MSMS

ABSTRACT: Extreme weather events, such as heatwaves, are becoming increasingly frequent, long-lasting, and severe as global climate change continues, shaping marine biodiversity patterns worldwide. Increased risk of overheating and mortality across major taxa have been recurrently observed, jeopardizing the sustainability of ecosystem services. Molecular responses of species, which scale up to physiological and population responses, are determinant processes that modulate species sensitivity or tolerance to extreme weather events. Here, we analysed the whole-body proteome of the intertidal ragworm Hediste diversicolor (Müller, 1776), a keystone species in estuarine ecosystems and an emergent blue bio-resource, to long-lasting heatwaves (24 ºC vs 30 ºC for 1 month). We hypothesized that this species is phenotypically plastic and thus able to acclimate to heatwaves by inducing cytoprotective pathways and modulating energy metabolism to enhance its thermal tolerance and maintain survival. To test these hypotheses, worms were exposed to control (24 ºC) and a +6 ºC increase in water temperature (30 ºC) for a month, after which they were collected for whole-body proteomic (after 28 days of exposure) analysis. Concomitantly, fatty acid analysis (after 28 days of exposure) and cumulative survival, upper thermal tolerance limits and wet weight (after 30 days of exposure) were compared between control and heatwave exposed worms.

Project description:Reports that low-intensity microwave radiation can induce heat-shock reporter gene expression in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, have recently been reinterpreted as a subtle thermal effect caused by very slight heating. This study used a microwave exposure system (1.0 GHz, 0.5 W power input; SAR 0.9-3 mW kg-1 for 6-well plates) that minimises the temperature differential between sham and exposed conditions to ≤ 0.1°C. Comparable measurement and simulation studies of SAR distribution within this exposure system are presented. We compared 5 Affymetrix gene-arrays of pooled triplicate RNA populations from sham-exposed L4/adult worms against 5 gene-arrays of pooled RNA from microwave-exposed worms (taken from the same source population in each run). Few genes showed consistent expression changes across all 5 comparisons, and all such expression changes appeared modest after applying standard normalisation procedures (≤ 30% up- or down-regulated). The number of statistically significant differences in gene expression (846) was less than the false-positive rate expected by chance (1131). As one example, an apparent up-regulation of the vit-3 vitellogenin gene by microwave exposure was not mirrored by similar changes affecting the other co-regulated members of the same vit gene family. We conclude that the pattern of gene expression in L4/adult C elegans is not substantially perturbed by low-intensity microwave radiation, and that the minor changes observed in this study may well be explicable as false positives. As a check on the sensitivity of the Affymetrix gene-arrays used, we also compared RNA samples from N2 worms subjected to a sub-heat-shock treatment (28ºC) against controls kept at 26 ºC (but using only 2 gene arrays per condition). After similar normalisation, many more genes (3712) showed substantial expression changes (i.e. > 2-fold at p < 0.05), including a group of six heat-shock genes which were strongly but unexpectedly down-regulated (by > 10-fold). However, further replication and confirmation by real-time RT-PCR would be needed to establish how many of these changes might also be false positives.
