Project description:A systematic approach allowing the identification of the molecular way-of-action of novel potential drugs represents the golden-tool for drug-discovery. While high-throughput screening technologies of large libraries is now well established, the assessment of the drug targets and mechanism of action is still under development. Taking advantage of the yeast model Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we herein applied BarSeq, a Next Generation Sequencing-based method to the analysis of both haploinsufficiency and homozygous fitness effects of a novel antifungal drug ('089') compared to the well-known antifungal ketoconazole. '089' was a novel compound identified in during a screen for antifungal drugs, as it was showing fungicidal effects, and able to affect the yeast fitness at the mitochondrial level (Stefanini et al., 2010. (Dissection of the Effects of Small Bicyclic Peptidomimetics on a Panel of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mutants;.J Biol Chem, 285: 23477-23485.) Integrative bioinformatic analysis of BarSeq, whole genome expression analysis and classical biological assays identified the target and cell pathways affected by the novel antifungal. Confirmation of the effects observed in the yeast model and in pathogenic fungi further demonstrated the reliability of the multi-sided approach and the novelty of the targets and way-of-action of the new class of molecules studied representing a valuable source of novel antifungals.

Project description:In this work, we evaluated the genetic stabilization process, of the intra- (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and interspecific (S. cerevisiae x Saccharomyces kudriavzevii) hybrids obtained by different non-GMO techniques, under fermentative conditions. Large-scale transitions in genome size, detected by measuring total DNA content, and genome reorganizations in both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, evidenced by changes in molecular markers, were observed during the experiments. Interspecific hybrids seem to need fewer generations to reach genetic stability than intraspecific hybrids. The largest number of molecular patterns among the derived stable colonies was observed for intraspecific hybrids, particularly for those obtained by rare-mating in which the total amount of initial DNA was larger. Finally, a representative intraspecific stable hybrid underwent a normal industrial process to obtain active dry yeast production as an important point at which inducing changes in genome composition was possible. No changes in hybrid genetic composition after this procedure were confirmed by comparative genome hybridization. According to our results, fermentation steps 2 and 5 –comprising between 30 and 50 generations- suffice to obtain genetically stable interspecific and intraspecific hybrids, respectively. This work aimed to develop and validate a fast genetic stabilization method for newly generated Saccharomyces hybrids under selective enological conditions. A comparison of the whole stabilization process in intra- and interspecific hybrids showing different ploidy levels, as a result of using different hybridization methodologies, was also made.

Project description:Industrial wine yeast strains possess specific abilities to ferment under stressing conditions and give a suitable aromatic outcome. Although the fermentations properties of Saccharomyces cervisiae wine yeasts are well documented little is known on the genetic basis underlying the fermentation traits. Besides, although strain differences in gene expression has been reported, their relationships with gene expression variations and fermentation phenotypic variations is unknown. To both identify the genetic basis of fermentation traits and get insight on their relationships with gene expression variations, we combined fermentation traits QTL mapping and expression profiling in a segregating population from a cross between a wine yeast derivative and a laboratory strain.

Project description:The control of gene expression in Toxoplasma is not well understood. As we and others have shown, this organism does contain bipartite promoters that are sufficient to induce gene expression. This information can be used in downstream experiments to identify proteins that bind to experimentally confirmed cis elements. One of these methods, yeast one-hybrid is currently being employed to identify proteins which bind to the BAG1 and B-NTPase promoter elements. Another powerful method that can be used to identify genomic regions containing controllers of gene expression takes advantage of genetic linkage mapping provided by genetic crosses, called expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping. In the eQTL approach, one uses gene expression as quantitative traits, or phenotypes, in QTL mapping. QTL mapping is a proven method in Toxoplasma that has recently identified apicomplexan-specific virulence factors in both the Type II X III and Type I X III crosses (Saeij et al., 2006, Taylor et al., 2006, Su et al., 2002). With the recent design of the Affymetrix Toxoplasma GeneChip one can gather gene expression profiles for all predicted genes in the Toxoplasma genome in a rapid and reproducible way. Combining the power of Affymetrix gene expression technology and QTL mapping can lead to the identification of genes with differential expression in the parents and progeny of a genetic cross and then to the identification of the genomic regions that contain mechanisms that have an effect on expression. The first description of combining global gene expression profiles with QTL mapping was published by Brem et al. using the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Brem et al., 2002). Since that time, eQTL projects have been described for several other organisms including human, mouse, rat, maize, Arabidopsis, barley, eucalyptus, and wheat (Gibson & Weir, 2005). There are two mapping location types expected when using gene expression profiles as phenotypes. Mapping of gene expression profiles can lead to linkage of a locus (region) containing the gene being mapped, thus cis to the gene. Although the boundaries of the locus will contain many genes, it is presumed that for most cis QTLs sequence polymorphisms in the regulatory region(s) of the gene being mapped are the cause of the observed expression differences. The other mapping location type expected is one where the expression profile maps to a locus not containing the gene being mapped, or trans to the gene (Ronald et al., 2005). The most interesting trans loci are those that have multiple genes mapping to the same locus in trans, or to a trans hotspot. These hotspots likely contain factor(s) that regulate many genes, such as transcription factors or factors involved in upstream signal transduction pathways that can eventually lead to a number of transcriptional changes (Yvert et al., 2003). Here we describe the results of an eQTL project using the gene expression profiles for the parents and 34 informative progeny of the type I-GT1-Fudr X type III-CTGara cross for both the tachyzoite and bradyzoite stages. This is the first time global gene expression profiles have been used to determine linkage to regions presumed to be controllers of transcription using the Affymetrix Toxoplasma GeneChip. The dominant genomic associations found were those mapping cis and there were several regions, or hotspots, where multiple genes map in trans. In addition, we observed an unexpected finding suggesting there are several duplication events in the parasites of the Type I X III cross which may also have consequences on gene expression levels.

Project description:How evolution modifies complex, innate behaviors is largely unknown. Divergence in many morphological traits has been linked, at least in part, to cis-regulatory changes in gene expression, a pattern also observed for some behaviors in recently diverged populations. Given this, we compared the gene expression in the brains of two interfertile sister species of Peromyscus mice, including allele-specific expression (ASE) of their F1 hybrids, that show large and heritable differences in burrowing behavior. Because cis-regulation may contribute to constitutive as well as activity-dependent gene expression, we also captured a molecular signature of burrowing circuit divergence by quantifying gene expression in mice shortly after burrowing. We found that several thousand genes were differentially expressed between the two sister species regardless of behavioral context, with several thousand more showing behavior-dependent differences. Allele-specific expression in F1 hybrids showed a similar pattern, suggesting that much of the differential expression is driven by cis-regulatory divergence. Genes related to locomotor coordination showed the strongest signals of lineage-specific selection on burrowing-induced cis-regulatory changes. By comparing these candidate genes to independent quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping data, we found that the closest QTL markers to these candidate genes are associated with variation in burrow shape, demonstrating an enrichment for candidate locomotor genes near segregating causal loci. Together, our results provide insight into how cis-regulated gene expression can depend on behavioral context as well as how this dynamic regulatory divergence between species can be integrated with forward genetics to enrich our understanding of the genetic basis of behavioral evolution.
