Project description:In this project, we follow the temporal proteome dynamics during heat stress response in a model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using label-free quantification we determine changes in the yeast proteome at different times after mild temperature shift, from 30˚C to 37˚C. The time points measured were 0 min (30˚C, no stress) and then at 10 min, 30 min, 60 min, 120 min and 240 min after cells were transferred to 37 °C. For each time point, four biological replicates were collected for the haploid wild type (BY4742, Mat ALPHA, his3Δ1; leu2Δ0; lys2Δ0; ura3Δ0; YJL088w::kanMX4) strain and a haploid strain with a chaperone Ssb1p deletion (ssb1Δ).
Project description:Study of the response to the osmotic shock and its effect on gene expression regulation in different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (WT and Sln1/Ypd1 mutants). The cells received a sodium chloride stimulation (NaCl 0.4M), and were sampled at the time of stimulation (0 min) and in 10 and 20 minutes after the stimulation.
Project description:Measurement of expression levels as a time course after shifting temperature-sensitive splicing factor mutant cells from 23C to 37C. Analysis of WT SS330, prp17 null, prp17-1 and prp22-1 cells. Samples were analyzed at 0, 5, 15, 30, 60 and 120 min.

Project description:An S288c-derived lab strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has lower ethanol resistance than either the vineyard strain M22 or the oak strain YPS163. We performed a 60 minute time-course experiment in the presence of 5% ethanol and compared the transcriptional response to ethanol between strains. We additionally analyzed the time-point of maximal response (30 min.) in wild type cells, YPS163 msn2D, and YPS163 hap1D cells.
Project description:We studied the response to increased DNA-supercoiling in Streptococcus pneumoniae by using seconeolitsine (SCN), a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor. A homeostatic transcriptional response allowing recovering of supercoiling density was observed in cells treated with subinhibitory SCN concentrations. Supercoiling increases up to 40.7% (6 µM SCN) and 72.9% (8 µM SCN) were reverted to 8.5% and 44.1%, respectively. Likewise, recovery of viability and DNA-supercoiling were observed when cells were treated with those SCN concentrations and the drug was removed. The main DNA topoisomerase gene affected was topA, whose transcription depended on the supercoiling level. A two stage global transcriptomic response with 8 µM seconeolitsine was detected. The early stage (5 and 15 min, 10% of the genome) represented a response induced by increased supercoiling. The second stage represented supercoiling recovery (30 min, 2.0% of the genome). Almost 25% of the early responsive genes formed clusters with coordinated transcriptional regulation. Twelve clusters were evident, with sizes of 6.7 to 31.4 Kb (9 to 22 responsive genes). Strikingly, clusters did not contradict those observed under DNA relaxation, suggesting that bacteria manage supercoiling stress using overlapping responses. This is the first study describing a global transcriptomic response triggered by an increase in DNA supercoiling in bacteria.

Project description:RNA isolated from the cultures treated with 0 and 50 micromolar AFB1 at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 min was used for microarray experiments. For each array hybridization experiment, RNAs from the treated sample and its corresponding time-matched control were co-hybridized to arrays and respectively quantified in different channels. A dye swap strategy was used to eliminate the dye bias. Keywords: time-course
