Project description:Ssz1p plays multifunctional roles in diverse cellular activities including forming a ribosome-associated complex to assist new protein synthesis and activating pleiotropic drug resistance (PDR) pathway. Here we report a novel function of SSZ1 to maintain cellular robustness when it is overexpressed. We found overexpression of SSZ1 can suppress the death phenotype of the double mutant Δire1Δscj1 and the temperature sensitivity (TS) phenotype of scj1-1Δire1. Microarray analyses showed that overexpression of SSZ1 induced up-regulation of the genes involved in the PDR pathway and the cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway, but not the unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway. However, overexpression of PDR1 and PDR5 cannot significantly suppress the TS phenotype of scj1-1Δire1, and overexpression of SSZ1 cannot up-regulate the gene expression of lacZ under the control of the unfolded protein response element in SSZ1OEΔire1 compared with that in Δire1. We infer that the suppression is not through the PDR pathway or through the UPR pathway. It may be through regulating downstream genes of the CWI pathway. Moreover, the peptide-binding domain of Ssz1p is necessary for its suppression of TS phenotype of scj1-1Δire1.

Project description:The ability of cancer cells to switch phenotype in response to a dynamic intra-tumor microenvironment is a major barrier to effective therapy. In melanoma, down-regulation of the lineage addiction oncogene MITF (Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor) is a hallmark of the proliferative-to-invasive phenotype switch. Yet how MITF promotes proliferation and suppresses invasion is poorly understood. Here we show that expression of the key lipogenic enzyme stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is activated by MITF, but suppressed by the stress-responsive transcription factor ATF4. SCD expression is required for MITF-positive melanoma cell proliferation,. By contrast, MITF-low cells express reduced levels of SCD and are insensitive to its inhibition, indicating that cell phenotype dictates response to drugs targeting lipid metabolism. Since SCD suppresses inflammatory signalling and ATF4 expression, the results identify a positive feedback-loop that can maintain an invasive phenotype, uncover a key role for MITF and ATF4 in metabolic reprograming, and reveal fatty acid composition as a driver of melanoma phenotype-switching.

Project description:This study describes a transcriptome-phenotype matching approach in which the starter L. lactis MG1363 was fermented under a variety of conditions that differed in the levels of oxygen and/or salt, as well as the fermentation pH and temperature. Samples derived from these fermentations in the exponential phase of bacterial growth were analyzed by full-genome transcriptomics and the assessment of heat and oxidative stress phenotypes. Variations in the fermentation conditions resulted in up to 1000-fold differences in survival during heat and oxidative stress. More specifically, aeration during fermentation induced protection against heat stress, whereas a relatively high fermentation temperature resulted in enhanced robustness towards oxidative stress. Concomitantly, oxygen levels and fermentation temperature induced differential expression of markedly more genes when compared with the other fermentation parameters. Correlation analysis of robustness phenotypes and gene expression levels revealed transcriptome signatures for oxidative and/or heat stress survival, including the metC-cysK operon involved in methionine and cysteine metabolism. To validate this transcriptome-phenotype association we grew L. lactis MG1363 in the absence of cysteine which led to enhanced robustness towards oxidative stress. Conclusions Overall, we demonstrated the importance of careful selection of fermentation parameters prior to industrial processing of starter cultures. Furthermore, established stress genes as well as novel genes were associated with robustness towards heat and/or oxidative stress. Assessment of the expression levels of this group of genes could function as an indicator for enhanced selection of fermentation parameters resulting in improved robustness during spray drying. The increased robustness after growth without cysteine appeared to confirm the role of expression of the metC-cysK operon as an indicator of robustness and suggests that sulfur amino acid metabolism plays a pivotal role in oxidative stress survival. two connected loops, both containing samples derived on a single day (sample 1-6, sample 7-13)

Project description:Recently, we demonstrated that fermentation conditions strongly impact on subsequent survival of Lactococcus lactis strain MG1363 during heat and oxidative stress, two important parameters during spray drying. Moreover, employment of a transcriptome-phenotype matching approach revealed groups of genes associated with robustness towards heat and/or oxidative stress. To investigate if other strains have similar or distinct transcriptome signatures for robustness, we applied a similar transcriptome-robustness phenotype matching approach on the L. lactis strains IL1403, KF147 and SK11. These strains were employed in an identical fermentation regime as was performed earlier for strain MG1363 which consisted of twelve conditions, varying in the presence of salt and/or oxygen, as well as fermentation temperature and pH. In the exponential phase of growth, cells were harvested for transcriptome analysis and assessment of heat and oxidative stress survival phenotypes. The variation in fermentation conditions resulted in differences in heat and oxidative stress survival up to five 10-log units. Effects of the fermentation conditions on stress survival of the L. lactis strains were typically strain-dependent, although the fermentation conditions had mainly similar effects on the growth characteristics of the different strains. Association of transcriptomes and robustness phenotypes identified highly strain-specific transcriptome signatures for robustness, indicating that multiple mechanism exist to increase robustness and, as a consequence, robustness of each strain requires individual optimization. However, a relatively small overlap in the transcriptome responses of the strains was also identified and this generic transcriptome signature included genes previously associated with stress (ctsR and lplL) and novel genes, including nanE and genes encoding transport proteins. The transcript levels of these genes can function as indicators of robustness and could aid in selection of fermentation parameters, potentially resulting in more optimal robustness during spray drying.

Project description:Def6 suppresses osteoblast differentiation and mineralization both in vitro and in vivo. Def6 knockout (KO) mice exhibit osteoporotic phenotype with enhanced osteoclast formation. Osteoblast differentiation and bone formation are elevated as well in Def6 KO mice, indicating a high bone turnover rate that leads to bone loss in Def6 KO mice. Thus, lack of Def6 leads towards unbalanced activities between osteoclastic resorption and osteoblast mediated bone formation and disrupts normal bone remodeling. Def6 suppresses osteoblast differentiation via endogenous type I IFN-mediated feedback inhibition. These findings reveal that Def6 is a novel bone remodeling regulator that controls both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation to maintain bone remodeling.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) generates heat via uncoupled respiration, providing mammals with an evolutionary defense against environmental cold. Although the molecular pathways by which cold activates brown adipocytes are well understood, little is known about how BAT maintains its thermogenic capacity during adaptation to environmental warmth. Here, we identify the transcriptional repressor BCL6 as the switch for maintaining brown adipocyte cellular identity under warm conditions. Mice lacking BCL6 in their brown adipocytes display normal thermogenic responses when housed in a cool environment, but fail to maintain thermogenic fitness when housed under warm conditions. In a temperature-dependent manner, BCL6 suppresses apoptosis, fatty acid storage, and coupled respiration to maintain thermogenic competence in brown adipocytes. Enhancer analysis revealed that BCL6 reinforces brown-specific while opposing white-specific enhancers to maintain cellular identity. Thus, unlike other regulators, BCL6 is dispensable for differentiation and activation of brown adipocytes, but specifically required for their maintenance in warmth.

Abstract:
Cellular systems are generally robust against fluctuations of intracellular parameters such as gene expression level. However, little is known about expression limits of genes required to halt cellular systems. In this study, using the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, we developed a genetic 'tug-of-war' (gTOW) method to assess the overexpression limit of certain genes. Using gTOW, we determined copy number limits for 31 cell-cycle regulators; the limits varied from 1 to >100. Comparison with orthologs of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggested the presence of a conserved fragile core in the eukaryotic cell cycle. Robustness profiles of networks regulating cytokinesis in both yeasts (septation-initiation network (SIN) and mitotic exit network (MEN)) were quite different, probably reflecting differences in their physiologic functions. Fragility in the regulation of GTPase spg1 was due to dosage imbalance against GTPase-activating protein (GAP) byr4. Using the gTOW data, we modified a mathematical model and successfully reproduced the robustness of the S. pombe cell cycle with the model.
