Effects of BFD1 (TGME49_200385) and BFD2 (TGME49_311100) deletion on gene expression in Toxoplasma gondii during infection in neurons

Project description:Differentiation of proliferative acute stages into semi-quiescent chronic stages is key for Toxoplasma gondii persistence within an infected host. During natural infection, chronic stages are almost exclusively found in neurons, and it is well appreciated that neurons support high rates of spontaneous differentiation in cell culture. Recently, we found that parasites lacking the RNA-binding protein BFD2 are unable to produce chronic forms, consistent with a block in this develomental program. To compare the effects of BFD1 and BFD2 on chronic-stage transcriptional reprogramming in T. gondii, we profiled the transcriptomes of both 'wildtype' and BFD1- and BFD2-knockout parasites during infection of murine primary neurons.

Effect of BFD2 (TGME49_311100) knockout on T. gondii gene expression during BFD1 induction

Project description:The acute-to-chronic stage transition in Toxoplasma gondii involes a global restructuring of the parasite transcriptome. Prior work identified a single transcription factor (BFD1) that is both necessary and sufficient to establish the chronic-stage program, making it the master regulator of this process. Recently, we found that parasites lacking a CCCH-type zinc finger RNA-binding protein (BFD2) are also unable to produce chronic forms. To understand how BFD2 aids in establishing the BFD1 transcriptional program, we knocked out BFD2 in a BFD1-conditional expression strain, wherein BFD1 is induced by treatment with the small molecule Shield-1.

Translation initiation factor eIF1.2 orchestrates Toxoplasma gondii differentiation by regulating stage-specific gene expression

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii persists in humans by converting from actively replicating acute stage tachyzoites to slow-growing chronic stage bradyzoites. The molecular mechanisms that mediate T. gondii differentiation remain poorly understood. Through a chemical mutagenesis screen, we identified translation initiation factor eIF1.2 as being critical for T. gondii differentiation. The presence of an F97L mutation in eIF1.2 identified in the screen or the complete lack eIF1.2 (∆eIF1.2) markedly impeded bradyzoite cyst formation in culture and in the brains of infected mice. ∆eIF1.2 parasites were defective in the upregulation of bradyzoite differentiation regulators BFD1 and BFD2 during stress-induced differentiation. Conditional overexpression of BFD1 or BFD2 rescued differentiation in ∆eIF1.2 parasites. We further show that eiF1.2 interacted with the yeast 40S ribosome and directed the scanning of a model 5’ untranslated region. Together, our findings imply that eIF1.2 functions by regulating the translation of key differentiation factors necessary to establish T. gondii chronic infection.

Toxoplasma gondii RNASeq

Project description:Recent advances in high throughput sequencing methodologies allow the opportunity to probe in depth the transcriptomes of organisms including N. caninum and Toxoplasma gondii. In this project, we are using Illumina sequencing technology to analyze the transcriptome (RNA-Seq) of experimentally accessible stages (e.g. tachyzoites at different times points) of T. gondii VEG strain. The aim is to make comparative transcriptional landscape maps of Neospora and Toxoplasma at different time points at different life cycle stages and compare levels of expression of orthologous genes in these two organisms.
