Project description:The proteome of the marine bacterium Photobacterium angustum S14 was exposed to UVB and analyzed by the implementation of both the post-digest ICPL labeling method and 2D-DIGE technique using exponentially growing cells. A total of 40 and 23 proteins were quantified in all replicates using either the ICPL or 2D-DIGE methods, respectively. By combining both datasets from 8 biological replicates (4 biological replicates for each proteomics technique), 55 proteins were found to respond significantly to UVB radiation in P. angustum. A total of 8 UVB biomarkers of P. angustum were quantified in all replicates using both methods. Among them, the protein found to present the highest increase in abundance (almost a 3-fold change) was RecA, which is known to play a crucial role in the so-called recombinational repair process. We also observed a high number of antioxidants, transport proteins, metabolism-related proteins, transcription/translation regulators, chaperonins and proteases. We also discuss and compare the UVB response and global protein expression profiles obtained for two different marine bacteria with trophic lifestyles: the copiotroph P. angustum and oligotroph Sphingopyxis alaskensis.

Project description:A type of photoheterotrophic bacteria contain a transmembrane light-driven proton pump called proteorhodopsins (PRs). Due to the prevalence of these organisms in the upper water column of the World's Ocean, and their potential for light-driven ATP generation, they have been suggested to significantly influence energy and matter flows in the biosphere. To date, evidence for the significance of the light-driven metabolism of PR-containing prokaryotes has been obtained by comparing growth in batch culture, under light versus dark conditions, and it appears that responses to light are linked to unfavorable conditions, which so far have not been well parameterized. We studied light responses to carbon yields of the PR-containing Photobacterium angustum S14 using continuous culture conditions and light-dark cycles. We observed significant effects of light-dark cycles compared to dark controls, as well as significant differences between samples after 12 h illumination versus 12 h darkness. However, these effects were only observed under higher cell counts and lower pH associated with higher substrate concentrations. Under these substrate levels Pirt's maintenance coefficient was higher when compared to lower substrate dark controls, and decreased under light-dark cycles. It appears that light responses by P. angustum S14 are induced by the energetic status of the cells rather than by low substrate concentrations.

Project description:UVB oxidizes proteins through the generation of reactive oxygen species. One consequence of UVB irradiation is carbonylation, the irreversible formation of a carbonyl group on proline, lysine, arginine or threonine residues. In this study, redox proteomics was performed to identify carbonylated proteins in the UVB resistant marine bacterium Photobacterium angustum. Mass-spectrometry was performed with either biotin-labeled or dinitrophenylhydrazide (DNPH) derivatized proteins. The DNPH redox proteomics method enabled the identification of 62 carbonylated proteins (5% of 1221 identified proteins) in cells exposed to UVB or darkness. Eleven carbonylated proteins were quantified and the UVB/dark abundance ratio was determined at both the protein and peptide levels. As a result we determined which functional classes of proteins were carbonylated, which residues were preferentially modified, and what the implications of the carbonylation were for protein function. As the first large scale, shotgun redox proteomics analysis examining carbonylation to be performed on bacteria, our study provides a new level of understanding about the effects of UVB on cellular proteins, and provides a methodology for advancing studies in other biological systems.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying the physiological and cellular response to starvation are still not fully understood. We have used quantitative proteomics and RNA-seq to examine the temporal responses to starvation in the multicellular organism C. elegans, comparing the response in both wild type animals and in animals lacking the transcription factor HLH-30. Our findings show that starvation alters the abundance of hundreds of proteins and mRNAs in a temporal manner, many of which are involved in central metabolic pathways including lipoprotein metabolism. We show that hlh-30 animals die prematurely when starved, which can be prevented by knockdown of either vit-1 or vit-5, encoding two different lipoproteins. We show that the size and number of intestinal lipid droplets under starvation are altered in hlh-30 animals, that can be rescued by knockdown of vit-1, indicating that rescue of survival of hlh-30 animals under starvation conditions is closely linked to the size and number of intestinal lipid droplets.

Project description:How animals coordinate gene expression in response to starvation is an outstanding problem closely linked to aging, obesity, and cancer. Newly hatched Caenorhabditis elegans respond to food deprivation by halting development and promoting long-term survival (L1 diapause), thereby providing an excellent model to study starvation response. Through a genetic search, we have discovered that the tumor suppressor Rb critically promotes survival during L1 diapause and likely does so by regulating the expression of genes in both insulin-IGF-1 signaling (IIS)-dependent and -independent pathways mainly in neurons and the intestine. Global gene expression analyses suggested that Rb maintains the “starvation-induced transcriptome” and represses the “re-feeding induced transcriptome”, including the repression of many pathogen/toxin/oxidative stress-inducible and metabolic genes, as well as the activation of many other stress-resistant genes, mitochondrial respiratory chain genes, and potential IIS receptor antagonists. Notably, the majority of genes dysregulated in starved L1 Rb(-) animals were not found to be dysregulated in fed conditions. Together, these findings identify Rb as a critical regulator of the starvation response and suggest a link between functions of tumor suppressors and starvation survival. These results may provide mechanistic insights into why cancer cells are often hypersensitive to starvation treatment.

Project description:Non-conventional methylotrophic yeast Komagataella phaffii is an important production host in biotechnology and an emerging model organism. In this work, we studied K. phaffii response to nitrogen starvation during cultivation in media with methanol as the sole carbon source. The results were compared with well-established model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Some of the observed effects of nitrogen starvation in K. phaffii were similar to those in S. cerevisiae, despite this yeast does not have metabolic pathway for methanol utilization. The effects include activation of autophagy, transport and catabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds, interconversions of amino acids, and biosynthesis of fatty acids. K. phaffii cells also demonstrated specific response to nitrogen starvation including suppression of genes involved in methanol metabolism and other peroxisomal processes and activation of purine catabolism genes.

Project description:Cells and organisms frequently experience starvation. To adapt and survive, they mount an evolutionarily conserved stress response. A vital component in the mammalian starvation response is eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2) kinase (eEF2K), which responds to starvation by phosphorylating and inactivating the translation elongation driver eEF2, thus shutting down translation and facilitating survival. C. elegans efk-1/eEF2K phosphorylates EEF-2/eEF2 on a conserved residue and is required for starvation survival, but how it promotes survival remains unclear. Surprisingly, we found that eEF2 phosphorylation is unchanged in starved C. elegans, suggesting that efk-1 promotes survival via a noncanonical pathway. We show that efk-1 upregulates transcription of the DNA repair pathways, nucleotide excision repair (NER) and base excision repair (BER), to promote starvation survival. Furthermore, efk-1 suppresses oxygen consumption and ROS production in starvation to prevent oxidative stress. Thus, efk-1 enables starvation survival by protecting animals from starvation-induced oxidative damage through a translation-independent pathway.

Project description:Cellular quiescence is a reversible differentiation state when cells are changing the gene expression programme to reduce metabolic functions and adapt to a new cellular environment. The epigenetic changes that accompany these alterations are not so well understood. Here we investigate the role of Leo1, a subunit of the conserved Paf1 (RNA polymerase-associated factor 1) complex, in the quiescence process using fission yeast as a model organism. Fission yeast cells enter the G0 phase of the cell cycle when exposed to nitrogen starvation and the heterochromatin regions become very dynamic. The reduction of heterochromatin in early G0 correlates with the reduced activity of target of rapamycin, TORC2, signalling. Cells lacking the Leo1 show reduced survival in G0. In these cells heterochromatin regions including subtelomeres are stabilized and many genes, including membrane transport genes, fail to be expressed. Our results suggest that Leo1 is essential for dynamic regulation of heterochromatin and gene expression during cellular quiescence.
