Project description:Polyploidy or whole genome duplication (WGD) provides raw genetic materials for sequence and expression evolution of duplicate genes. However, the mode and tempo of expression divergence between WGD duplicate genes in closely relates species and recurrent allopolyploids are poorly understood. Arabidopsis is a suitable system for testing the hypothesis that duplicate genes increase expression diversity and regulatory networks. In Arabidopsis, WGD occurred more than once prior to the split between Arabidopsis thaliana and Arabidopsis arenosa, and both natural and human-made allotetraploids are available. Comparative genomic hybridization analysis indicated that single-copy and duplicate genes after WGD were well preserved in A. thaliana and A. arenosa. Analysis of gene expression microarrays showed that duplicate genes generally had higher levels of expression divergence between two closely related species than single-copy genes. The proportion of the progenitors' duplicate genes that were nonadditively expressed in the resynthesized and natural allotetraploids was significantly higher than that of single-copy genes. Duplicate genes related to environmental stresses tended to be differentially expressed, and multi-copy duplicate genes were likely to diverge expression between progenitors and in the allotetraploids. Compared to single-copy genes, duplicate genes tend to contain TATA boxes and less DNA methylation in the promoter regions, facilitating transcriptional regulation by binding transcription factors and/or cis-and trans- acting proteins. The data suggest an important role of WGD duplicate genes in modulating diverse and novel gene expression changes in response to external environmental cues as well as internal genetic turmoil such as recurrent polyploidy events.

Project description:The most striking feature of life is biodiversity. However, mechanisms of biodiversity remain poorly understood, as most protein orthologues of different species are highly homologous in sequence and identical in function. Interestingly, recent evidence has demonstrated heterogeneity for a G protein-coupled angiotensin II (Ang II) type 2 (AT(2)) receptor in both ligand binding and induction of arachidonic acid (AA) release. The present study investigated the properties of AT(2) receptors in closely related species.AT(2) receptors cloned from human, rabbit, rat, and mouse were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1), African green monkey kidney cells (COS-1), and human embryonic kidney (HEK)-293 cells and characterized in ligand binding and signal transductions. Critical residues in rabbit AT(2) receptor attributable to heterogeneity were examined using both gain-of-function and loss-of-function approaches with mutagenesis.The newly cloned rabbit AT(2) receptor exhibits distinct biochemical and biologic properties compared to its highly homologous orthologues (91% in overall amino acid sequence) of rat, mouse, and human. All these orthologues activate SH2 domain-containing phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) and show similar binding affinities for Ang II and AT(2)-specific ligands CGP42112A and PD123319. However, reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT) inactivates the rabbit orthologue but potentiates the others in ligand binding, a hallmark of AT(2) versus AT(1) receptor subtypes. Most interestingly, rabbit AT(2) receptor, but not the other orthologues, induces AA release in various cell systems when stimulated by both Ang II and CGP42112A, the peptide antagonist. Mutagenesis studies and sequence analyses further indicate that residues His(106), Asp(188), and Thr(293) are responsible for the DTT inactivation and residues Val(209) and Val(249) are partially responsible for AA release.These results deny the coexistence of an additional AT(2) subtype in rabbit proximal tubule cells and demonstrate for the first time the presence of functional diversity for closely related Eutherian orthologues of a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that are more than 90% homologous in the amino acid sequence.

Project description:Global comparisons of gene expression profiles between species provide significant insight into gene regulation, evolutionary processes, and disease mechanisms. In this work, we describe a flexible and intuitive approach for global expression profiling of closely related species, using high-density exon arrays designed for a single reference genome. The high-density probe coverage of exon arrays allows us to select the identical set of perfect-match probes for measuring expression levels of orthologous genes. This eliminates a serious confounding factor in probe affinity effects of species-specific microarray probes, and enables direct comparisons of estimated expression indexes across species.
