Project description:Systematic evaluation of conditional gene essentiality changes across 4 yeast strains
| PRJNA507593 | ENA
Project description:The extent by which different genetic backgrounds affect conditional gene essentiality is understudied. Here, 4 whole-genome knockout libraries were screened to systematically record changes in conditional gene essentiality. Gene expression changes between the reference strain and the other three were measured to gain more knowledge on the molecular determinants of these changes.

Project description:Transposon insertion site sequencing (TIS) is a powerful tool that has significantly advanced our knowledge of functional genomics. While providing valuable insights, these applications of TIS focus on (conditional) gene essentiality and neglect possibly interesting but subtle differences in the importance of genes for fitness. Notably, data from TIS experiments can be used for fitness quantification and constructing genetic interaction maps, though this potential is only sporadically exploited. We aimed to develop a method to quantify the fitness of gene disruption mutants using data obtained from the TIS screen SATAY. This dataset was used to determine the reproducibility of the fitness estimates across biological and technical replicates of the same strain of S. cerevisiae. In addition, a mutant bem3∆ strain was utilized to compare the genetic interactions inferred from these fitness estimates with those documented in published databases. The dataset for the wild-type strain was created by transforming strain yWT01 with plasmid pBK549 and picking 4 different colonies from the transformation plate. These 4 biological replicates were then renamed to FD7, FD9, FD11 and FD12.

Project description:Forward genetic screens across hundreds of diverse cancer cell lines have started to define the genetic dependencies of proliferating human cells and how these vary by genotype and lineage. Most screens, however, have been carried out in culture media that poorly resemble metabolite availability in human blood. To explore how medium composition influences gene essentiality, we performed CRISPR-based screens of human cancer cell lines cultured in traditional versus human plasma-like medium (HPLM). Sets of medium-dependent fitness genes span several cellular processes and can vary with both natural cell-intrinsic diversity and the specific combination of basal and serum components that comprise typical culture media. Notably, we traced the causes for each of three conditional CRISPR phenotypes to the availability of metabolites uniquely defined in HPLM versus traditional media. Our findings reveal the profound impact of medium composition on gene essentiality in human cells, and also suggest general strategies for using genetic screens in HPLM to uncover new cancer vulnerabilities and gene-nutrient interactions.

Project description:Biofilms undergo a life cycle where cells attach to a surface, grow and produce a structured community before dispersing to seed biofilms in new environments. Progression through this life cycle requires controlled temporal gene expression to maximise fitness at each stage. Previous studies have focused on the essential genome for the formation of a mature biofilm, but here we present an insight into the genes involved at different stages of biofilm formation. We used TraDIS-Xpress (a massively parallel transposon mutagenesis using transposon-located promoters to assay expression of all genes in the genome) to determine how gene essentiality and expression affects the fitness of E. coli growing as a biofilm on glass beads after 12, 24 and 48 hours. An E. coli transposon mutant library of approximately 800,000 unique mutants was grown on glass beads, and a planktonic sample was taken alongside this at each time point to compare gene essentiality and expression at each time point.

Project description:The Enterobacteriaceae are a scientifically and medically important clade of bacteria, containing the gut commensal and model organism Escherichia coli, as well as several major human pathogens including Salmonella enterica and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Essential gene sets have been determined for several members of the Enterobacteriaceae, and the E. coli Keio single-gene deletion library is often regarded as a gold standard for gene essentiality studies. However, it remains unclear how much essential genes vary between strains and species. To investigate this, we have assembled a collection of thirteen sequenced high-density transposon mutant libraries from five genera of the Enterobacteriaceae. We first benchmark a number of gene essentiality prediction approaches, investigate the effects of transposon density on essentiality prediction, and identify biases in transposon insertion sequencing data. Based on these investigations we develop a new classifier for gene essentiality. Using gene essentiality defined by this new classifier, we define a core essential genome in the Enterobacteriaceae of 201 universally essential genes, and reconstruct an ancestral essential gene set of 296 genes. Despite the presence of a large cohort of variably essential genes, we find an absence of evidence for genus-specific essential genes. A clear example of this sporadic essentiality is given by the set of genes regulating the σE extracytoplasmic stress response, which appears to have independently become essential multiple times in the Enterobacteriaceae. Finally, we compare our essential gene sets to the natural experiment of gene loss in obligate insect endosymbionts closely related to the Enterobacteriaceae. This isolates a remarkably small set of genes absolutely required for survival, and uncovers several instances of essential stress responses masked by redundancy in free-living bacteria.

Project description:Essentiality assays are commonly practiced as important tools for the discovery of gene functions. Growth/no growth screens of single gene knockout strain collections are often utilized to test the predictive power of genome-scale models. False positive predictions occur when computational analysis predicts a gene to be non-essential, however experimental screens deem the gene to be essential. One explanation for this inconsistency is that the model contains the wrong information, possibly an incorrectly annotated alternative pathway or isozyme reaction. Inconsistencies could also be attributed to experimental limitations, such as growth tests with arbitrary time cut-offs. The focus of this study was to resolve such inconsistencies to better understand isozyme activities and gene essentiality. Gene-deletion strains associated with false positive predictions of gene essentiality on defined minimal medium for Escherichia coli were targeted for extended growth tests followed by population sequencing.
