Project description:The data provide information expression profile in yeast for 5 different physioloigcal conditions during stress adpatation and stress recovery (normal growth, during stress adaptation, after stress adaptation, under stress recovery, after stress recovery) in yeast. The purpose of the study is to understand how histone acetyltransferase HATs (Gcn5) apply it is function in gene regulation by changing global or local histone acetylation level under different physiological conditions. Gene expression levels measured for at 5 different time points of physiological changes under stress adaptation and stress recovery.

The purpose of the study is to understand how histone acetyltransferase HATs (Gcn5) apply it is function in gene regulation by changing global or local histone acetylation level under different physiological conditions. Gcn5 enrichment, H3K18 and H4K16 acetylation level and Histone H3 density are mearured and compared to input signal for 5 different physioloigcal conditions (normal growth, during stress adaptation, after stress adaptation, under stress recovery, after stress recovery). Replicates are used.

Project description:Second fermentation in a bottle supposes such specific conditions that undergo yeasts to a set of stress situations like high ethanol, low nitrogen, low pH or sub-optimal temperature. Also, yeast have to grow until 1 or 2 generations and ferment all sugar available while they resist increasing CO2 pressure produced along with fermentation. Because of this, yeast for second fermentation must be selected depending on different technological criteria such as resistance to ethanol, pressure, high flocculation capacity, and good autolytic and foaming properties. All of these stress factors appear sequentially or simultaneously, and their superposition could amplify their inhibitory effects over yeast growth. Considering all of the above, it has supposed interesting to characterize the adaptive response of commercial yeast strain EC1118 during second-fermentation experiments under oenological/industrial conditions by transcriptomic profiling. We have pointed ethanol as the most relevant environmental condition in the induction of genes involved in respiratory metabolism, oxidative stress, autophagy, vacuolar and peroxisomal function, after comparison between time-course transcriptomic analysis in alcoholic fermentation and transcriptomic profiling in second fermentation. Other examples of parallelism include overexpression of cellular homeostasis and sugar metabolism genes. Finally, this study brings out the role of low-temperature on yeast physiology during second-fermentation. S. cerevisiae EC1118 pre-adapted to ethanol cells and sucrose (20 g/L) were added to 20 L of base wine (Cavas Freixenet, Sant Sadurní D’Anoia, Spain). Complete volume was bottled with 350 mL each one. All were sealed and incubated in static conditions at 16ºC for approximately 40 days after tirage. Three samples were taken during the process for transcriptional study of the physiological adaptation of yeast cells to industrial second fermentation conditions. A sample corresponding to exponential-growth phase under unstressed conditions (in YPD at 28ºC) was used as an external reference. Three timepoints from second-fermentation were monitored and three biological replicates from each timepoint were analyzed.
Project description:Proteotoxic stress triggers adaptive cellular responses, including changes in gene expression on the levels of transcription and translation. In this study, we analyzed the translational response of yeast cells to impaired protein import into mitochondria, a condition under which mitochondrial precursor proteins accumulate in the cytosol and impose proteotoxic stress. We analyzed changes in translational efficiency as well as more subtle changes in the distribution of ribosomes along transcripts, with a special focus on translation initiation sites.
Project description:We conducted a set of lab-evolution experiments in yeast and followed the long-term dynamics of aneuploidy under diverse conditions including heat shock and high PH. Each evolution experiment starts with an ancestor strain that was subjected (in several independent repetitions) to certain growth conditions such as high temperature 39°C, permissive temperature 30°C, gradually increasing temperature from 30°C to 39°C, high pH=8.6 and normal PH. In all cases the mRNA extraction was performed on a population sample that was grown for 18 generations under stress-less conditions. This is since we aimed to measure the gene expression changes that are due to stress adaptation and not the physiological response.
Project description:We used genome-wide expression analyses to study the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to stress throughout a 15-day wine fermentation. Forty percent of the yeast genome significantly changed expression levels to mediate long-term adaptation to an environment in which ethanol is both a stressor and a carbon source. Within this set, we identify a group of 223 genes, designated as the Fermentation Stress Response (FSR), that are dramatically and permanently induced; FSR genes exhibited changes ranging from four-to eighty-fold. The FSR is novel; 62% of the genes involved have not been implicated in global stress responses and 28% of the genes have no functional annotation. Genes involved in respiratory metabolism and gluconeogenesis were expressed during fermentation despite the presence of high concentrations of glucose. Ethanol, rather than nutrient depletion, was responsible for entry of yeast cells into stationary phase. Ethanol seems to regulate yeast metabolism through hitherto undiscovered regulatory networks during wine fermentation. Keywords: time course, stress response, fermentation
