Project description:It was reported that deletion of gcnE in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans results in minor defects in primary metabolism and major defects in development and secondary metabolism. Here we unveil the role of GcnE in development. The A. nidulans strains used in this study were the wild type FGSC26 (biA1 veA1) and the M-bM-^HM-^FgcnE mutant. Strains were grown in complete liquid medium for 18 h at 37 M-BM-:C and then conidiation was induced by transferring the vegetative cultures to complete solid media.

Project description:In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, the velvet family protein VeA and the global regulator of secondary metabolism LaeA govern fungal development and secondary metabolism mostly by acting as the VelB/VeA/LaeA heterotrimeric complex. While functions of these highly conserved controllers have been well studied, the genome-wide regulatory networks governing cellular and chemical development remain to be uncovered. Here, by integrating transcriptomic analyses, protein-DNA interactions, and the known A. nidulans gene/protein interaction data, we have unraveled the gene regulatory networks governed by VeA and LaeA. Within the networks, VeA and LaeA directly control the expression of numerous genes involved in asexual/sexual development and primary/secondary metabolism in A. nidulans. Totals of 3,190 and 1,834 potential direct target genes of VeA and LaeA were identified, respectively, including several important developmental and metabolic regulators such as flbA·B·C, velB·C, areA, mpkB, and hogA. Moreover, by analyzing over 8,800 ChIP-seq peaks, we have revealed the predicted common consensus sequences 5’-TGATTGGCTG-3’ and 5’-TCACGTGAC-3’ that VeA and LaeA might bind to interchangeably. These findings further expand the biochemical and genomic studies of the VelB/VeA/LaeA complex functionality in gene regulation. In summary, this study unveils genes that are under the regulation of VeA and LaeA, proposes the VeA- and LaeA-mediated gene regulatory networks, and demonstrates their genome-wide developmental and metabolic regulations in A. nidulans. This entry is for the RNA-seq data.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Aspergillus nidulans OE::rsmA compared to wild-type RDIT9.32 (veA). A twelve array study using total RNA recovered from six separate cultures of Aspergillus nidulans wild-type RDIT9.32 (veA) and six separate cultures of Aspergillus nidulans overexpressing rsmA (restorer of secondary metabolism A), using custom-designed, four-plex arrays. The experiment was divided into two runs. In the first run, three biological replicates each of Aspergillus nidulans wild-type RDIT9.32 (veA) and Aspergillus nidulans carrying a plasmid overexpressing rsmA under the control of the gpdA promoter were assayed. In the second run, three biological replicates each of Aspergillus nidulans wild-type RDIT9.32 (veA) and Aspergillus nidulans overexpressing rsmA at the native locus under the control of the gpdA promoter were assayed.

Project description:This study presents the first global genomic, proteomic, and secondary metabolomic characterization of the filamentous fungus, Aspergillus nidulans, following growth on the International Space Station (ISS). The investigation included the A. nidulans wild-type and 3 mutant strains, two of which were genetically engineered to enhance secondary metabolite (SM) production. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) revealed that ISS conditions altered the A. nidulans genome in specific regions. In strain CW12001, which features overexpression of the SM global regulator laeA, ISS conditions induced a point mutation that resulted in the loss of the laeA stop codon. Differential expression of proteins involved in stress response, carbohydrate metabolic processes, and SM biosynthesis was observed. ISS conditions significantly decreased prenyl xanthone production in the wild-type strain and increased asperthecin production in LO1362 and CW12001, which are deficient in a major DNA repair mechanism. Together, these data provide valuable insights into the genetic and molecular adaptation mechanism of A. nidulans to the spacecraft environment and present many economic benefits.

Project description:In filamentous fungi, asexual sporulation involves morphological differentiation and metabolic changes. The process of asexual spore formation is tightly regulated by a variety of transcription factors including VosA, VelB, and WetA. A number of studies have demonstrated that these three transcription factors are key regulators of asexual spore formation and maturation in the model filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. To gain a more mechanistic view of the roles these transcription factors play in asexual spores, genome-wide and metabolomic analyses were conducted in A. nidulans conidia. RNA sequencing and chromatin immunoprecipitation-based sequencing data suggested that the three transcription factors directly or indirectly regulate the expression of genes associated with spore-wall integrity, asexual development, and secondary metabolism. In addition, metabolomics analysis of conidia extracts showed strikingly different primary and secondary metabolite profiles for wild-type and mutant conidia. These results suggest that WetA, VosA, and VelB play key roles in the morphological development of and metabolic changes in conidia. This entry is for the RNA-seq data.

Project description:Genome wide transcriptional changes induced by various types of oxidative stresses as well as salt stress were studied in a DatfA mutant and the appropriate control A. nidulans strains. Although a significant number of stereotypically regulated genes was identified (Core Oxidative Stress Response or COSR genes) when the global transcriptional effects of five different oxidative stress conditions were compared the number of co-regulated genes decreased to 13 when NaCl stress was included into the analyses. The appearance of only a few co-regulated genes and the great number of genes regulated merely by one certain type of stress do not support the existence of a S. cerevisiae-type Environmental Stress Response in A. nidulans. Deletion of atfA, a true functional ortholog of fission yeastâs âall-purposeâ stress response transcription factor, increased the oxidative stress sensitivity of A. nidulans and affected the transcription of several genes under both unstressed and stressed conditions. The number of genes under AtfA control was quite stress-type dependent; e.g. deletion of atfA altered the transcription of a wide spectrum of genes under menadione sodium bisulfite stress but had only a minor effect on the transcriptome profiles when A. nidulans cultures were exposed to H2O2, tBOOH, NaCl and, especially, to diamide stress. These observations suggest that the function of AtfA in the regulation of various stress responses is much smaller than we thought before or other transcription factors can take over a number of AtfAâs functions when the atfA gene is deleted. It is noteworthy that both oxidative and salt stress induced the transcription of some secondary metabolite gene clusters and the deletion of atfA enhanced the stress responsiveness of further clusters. Surprisingly, certain clusters were down-regulated by the stress conditions tested and the majority of them were not stress-responsive at all. Therefore, stress dependent regulation seems to be a frequent but far not a general feature of the regulation of secondary metabolism in A. nidulans. 14 samples, 7 with the control strain and 7 with an DatfA strain (each series contains samples from untreated as well as menadione, low concentration hidrogen-peroxide, high concentration hidrogen-peroxide, tert-butylhydroperoxide, diamide and NaCl treated cultures)
