Project description:Photosynthesis, the fundamental process using light energy to convert carbon dioxide to organic matter, is vital for life on Earth. It relies on capturing light through light-harvesting complexes (LHC) in photosystem I (PSI) and PSII and on the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. Composition and organization of PSI and PSII core complexes are well conserved across evolution. PSII is particularly sensitive to photodamage but benefits from a large diversity of photoprotective mechanisms, finely tuned to handle the dynamic and ever-changing light conditions. Light Harvesting Complex protein family members (LHC and LHC-like families) have acquired a dual function during evolution. Members of the LHC antenna complexes of PS capture light energy, whereas others dissipate excess energy that cannot be harnessed for photosynthesis. This process mainly occurs through nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ). In this work, we focus on the Light Harvesting complex-Like 4 (LHL4) protein, a LHC-like protein induced by ultraviolet-B (UV-B) and blue light through UV Resistance locus 8 (UVR8) and phototropin photoreceptor-activated signaling pathways in the model green microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We demonstrate that alongside established NPQ effectors, LHL4 plays a key role in photoprotection, preventing singlet oxygen accumulation in PSII and promoting cell survival upon light stress. LHL4 protective function is distinct from that of NPQ-related proteins, as LHL4 specifically and uniquely binds to the transient monomeric form of the core PSII complex, safeguarding its integrity. LHL4 characterization expands our understanding of the interplay between light harvesting and photoprotection mechanisms upon light stress in photosynthetic microalgae.

It relies on capturing light through light-harvesting complexes in photosystems I and II and converting light energy into chemical energy. Composition and organization of photosystem core complexes are well conserved across evolution, and are highly susceptible to photodamage. Consequently, a large diversity of photoprotective mechanisms have evolved in photoautotrophs, finely tuned for the specific light conditions.

Here we used an approach of complexome profiling to dissect where LHL4 co-migrates in a native BN-PAGE gel and the associated proteins.

Project description:Photosynthetic organisms coordinate their metabolism and growth with diurnal light, which can range in intensity from limiting to inhibitory. To gain a comprehensive understanding of how diurnal regulatory circuits interface with sensing and response to various light intensities, we performed a systems analysis of synchronized Chlamydomonas reinhardtii populations acclimated to low, moderate, and high diurnal light. Transcriptomic and proteomic data revealed that Chlamydomonas’ rhythmic gene expression program is resilient to limiting and excess light. Although gene expression is dynamic over the diurnal cycle, Chlamydomonas populations acclimated to low and high diurnal light exhibit constitutive phenotypes with respect to photosystem abundance, thylakoid architecture, and non-photochemical quenching that persist through the night. This suggests that cells harbor a “memory” or anticipation of the daylight environment. The integrated data constitute an excellent resource for understanding gene regulatory mechanisms and photoprotection in eukaryotes under environmentally relevant conditions.

Project description:The metabolites derived from microalgae have been attributed with various nutritional and medicinal properties. Therefore, our study aimed to investigate the potential beneficial effects of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red), a type of microalgae, in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Mice were fed on high-fat diet and injected with a low dose of streptozotocin to induce T2DM. The diabetic mice were orally treated with either 1% sodium carboxymethylcellulose or Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) at doses of 1, 2, or 3 g/kg BW/day for a duration of 4 weeks. The liver sections were subjected to hematoxylin and eosin staining as well as oil red staining for the detection of pathological changes and lipid deposition, respectively. Inflammatory factors in serum were quantified using ELISA kits, while commercial kits were employed to assess oxidative stress-related indicators. Gene expression in liver was analysed by RNA-seq. The results revealed that Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) significantly ameliorated fasting blood glucose levels, body weight, triglyceride, and low density lipoprotein cholesterin, while also enhancing oral glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. In pathological analysis, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) significantly improved lipid deposition and hepatic tissue damage. Furthermore, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) could obviously decreased the protein expression of G-6-Pase and PEPCK, and regulated the SOCS2/JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathway. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that a total of 972 significantly differentially expressed genes in diabetic mice treated with Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red). KEGG analyses revealed that lipid and atherosclerosis, MAPK signaling pathway, B cell receptor signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway were involved in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) modulated process. Therefore, the continuous consumption of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) may have anti-T2DM effects through the inhibition of gluconeogenesis, thus offering a promising alternative for T2DM patient.
