Project description:ZIKV strains belong to three phylogenetic lineages: East African, West African, and Asian/American. RNA virus genomes exist as populations of genetically-related sequences whose heterogeneity may impact viral fitness, evolution, and virulence. The genetic diversity of representative ZIKVs (N=7) from each lineage was examined using next generation sequencing (NGS) paired with downstream Shannon entropy calculation and single nucleotide variant (SNV) analysis. This comprehensive analysis of ZIKV genetic diversity provides insight into the genetic diversity of ZKIV and repository of SNV positions across lineages.

Project description:O. rhodostigmatus are non-obligative cave dwellers, whose tadpoles keep albinistic phenotype in caves but rapidly darken in light within 24 hours. Their coloration system is an excellent model for exploring the processes and mechanisms of light-induced pigmentation and revealing the genetic adaptation for non-obligative cave dwelling due to complicated life history. Using comparative transcriptomics, we found that melanocyte MCC (including melanogenesis and melanocytes proliferation) was responsible for the rapid skin darkening in was activated in O. rhodostigmatus. Light exposure induced robust activation of growth signals (including growth factor signals, MAPK signal pathways and PIK3-Akt signal pathways) at transcriptional levels, which were likely the upstream activation signals of melanocyte MCC in O. rhodostigmatus tadpoles. These results evidenced that amphibians and mammals likely share similar regulatory signals for light-induced melanocyte MCC. The conservation of pigmentation mechanisms across lower vertebrates and mammals imply that knowledge based on simpler models could also provide implications for causations and therapies of human pigmentation disorders and pigmented tumors. In aspect of genetic adaptation, an in-frame deletion of four amino acids in the membrane/extracellular junctions of the second and third transmembrane domains of O. rhodostigmatus MC1R, the receptor for melanogenesis signal, was identified. This mutation increases the negative charge of the ligand pocket of MC1R and results stereo-tandem of three aspartate residues aligning towards its ligand pocket. The ligand pocket of O. rhodostigmatus MC1R resembles a trap for positively charged ligands (α-MSH and ACTH) and likely increases the ligands-dependent activity of MC1R, providing an explanation for the rapid MCC of O. rhodostigmatus in light. Meanwhile, increased negative charge of ligand pocket likely decreased the constitutive activity of MC1R, in in supporting the albinistic phenotype of cave dwelling tadpoles. Therefore, genetic change of MC1R explains, at least to some extent, how the pigmentation system of O. rhodostigmatus coordinates the capacity of rapid melanogenesis (or other types of pigment production) and pigment regression, a couple of seemingly contradictory coloration requirements. To our knowledge, this is the first study reporting the association between pigmentation phenotype adaptation and MC1R mutations in amphibians or in non-obligative cave dwellers.

Project description:Parasitism is a major ecological niche for a variety of nematodes. Multiple nematode lineages have specialized as pathogens, including deadly parasites of insects that are used in biological control. We have sequenced and analyzed the draft genomes and transcriptomes of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae and four congeners (S. scapterisci, S. monticolum, S. feltiae, S. glaseri) distantly related to Caenorhabditis elegans. We used these genomes to establish phylogenetic relationships, explore gene conservation across species, identify genes uniquely expanded in insect parasites, and to identify conserved non-coding regulatory motifs that influence similar biological processes. Protein domain analysis of these genomes reveals a striking expansion of numerous putative parasitism genes including certain protease and protease inhibitor families as well as fatty acid- and retinol-binding proteins. We identify rapid evolution and expansion of the important developmental Hox gene cluster and identify novel conserved non-coding regulatory motifs associated with orthologous genes in Steinernema and Caenorhabditis. The deep conservation of the network of non-coding DNA motifs between these two genera for a subset of orthologous genes involved in neurogenesis and embryonic development suggests that a kernel of protein-DNA relationships is conserved through nematode evolution. We analyzed the gene expression of a total of 24 RNA-seq samples from 3 nematode species( S. carpocapsae, S. feltiae, and C. elegans) for comparative analysis. We collected the RNA at four developmental time points (mixed embryo, L1, infective juvenile/dauer, young adult) for each species in replicates.
