Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen that can grow in wide array of conditions: on abiotic surfaces, on the skin, in the nose, in planktonic or biofilms forms and can cause many type of infections. Consequently, S. aureus must be able to adapt rapidly to these changing growth conditions, an ability largely driven at the posttranscriptional level. RNA helicases of the DEAD-box family play an important part in this process. In particular, CshA, which is part of the degradosome, is required for the rapid turnover of certain mRNAs and its deletion results in cold-sensitivity. To understand the molecular basis of this phenotype, we conducted a large genetic screen isolating 82 independent suppressors of cold growth. Full genome sequencing revealed the fatty acid synthesis pathway affected in many suppressor strains. Consistent with that result, sublethal doses of triclosan, a FASII inhibitor, can partially restore growth of a cshA mutant in the cold. Overexpression of the genes involved in branch-chained fatty acid synthesis was also able to suppress the cold-sensitivity. Using gas chromatography analysis of fatty acids, we observed an imbalance of straight and branch-chained fatty acids in the cshA mutant, compared to the wild-type. This imbalance is compensated in the suppressor strains. Thus, we reveal for the first time that the cold sensitive growth phenotype of a DEAD-box mutant can be explained, at least partially, by an improper membrane composition. The defect correlates with an accumulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex mRNA, which is inefficiently degraded in absence of CshA. We propose that the resulting accumulation of acetyl- CoA fuels straight-chained fatty acid production at the expense of the branched ones. Strikingly, addition of acetate into the medium mimics the cshA deletion phenotype, resulting in cold sensitivity suppressed by the mutations found in our genetic screen or by sublethal doses of triclosan.

Project description:DEAD-box ATPases belong to an abundant class of proteins that are involved in virtually all aspects of RNA metabolism and are found in all kingdoms of life. When bound to a DEAD-box ATPase, the RNA substrate is forced into a kinked conformation that is incompatible with helical structures. Distortion of the RNA can result in unwinding of short RNA duplexes (helicase activity) or destabilize RNA-protein interactions, allowing DEAD-box ATPases to remodel mRNPs (RNPase activity). The RNPase activity makes DEAD-box ATPases suitable molecular building blocks for the implementation of checkpoints that confer directionality to the process of RNA biogenesis. Here, we provide data that characterizes the DEAD-box ATPase Dbp2 (SPBP8B7.16c) of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Using ChIP-seq, we determined the sites where HTP-tagged Dbp2 associates with chromatin. ChIP-seq of Srp2-HTP is included as a reference protein that is known to associate with transcribing RNA polymerase II (RNAPII).

Project description:Tripartite motif protein 25 (TRIM25) is an E3 ligase that ubiquitinates multiple substrates within the RLR signalling cascade and plays both RING (really interesting new gene)-dependent and RING-independent roles in RIG-I-mediated IFN induction. We report that the PRY-SPRY domain of TRIM25 interacts with the N-terminal extension (NTE) of DEAD-box helicase 3X (DDX3X), a host protein with multiple roles in RLR signalling. Gene reporter assays and knockdown studies reveal DDX3X and TRIM25 cooperate to activate the IFN- promoter following RIG-I activation independent of DDX3X’s catalytic activity. We also show that TRIM25 ubiquitinates DDX3X at several lysine residues in vitro and in cells.

Project description:How cells regulate gene expression in a precise spatiotemporal manner during organismal development is a fundamental question in biology. Although the role of transcriptional condensates in gene regulation has been established, little is known about the function and regulation of these molecular assemblies in the context of animal development and physiology. Here we show that the evolutionarily conserved DEAD-box helicase DDX-23 controls cell fate in Caenorhabditis elegans by binding to and facilitating the condensation of MAB-10, the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of mammalian NGFI-A-binding (NAB) protein. MAB-10 is a transcriptional cofactor that functions with the early growth response (EGR) protein LIN-29 to regulate the transcription of genes required for exiting the cell cycle, terminal differentiation, and the larval-to-adult transition. We suggest that DEAD-box helicase proteins function more generally during animal development to control the condensation of NAB proteins important in cell identity and that this mechanism is evolutionarily conserved. In mammals, such a mechanism might underlie terminal cell differentiation and when misregulated might promote cancerous growth.

For this, we placed the endogenous dbp2 gene under the control of the P.nmt1 promoter, which is repressed in the presence of thiamine. Cells were harvested at the beginning (t0) or the end (t5 or t9) of shift to thiamine-containing YES medium. S. cerevisiae spike-in cells were added in a 1:5 OD600 ratio immediately before harvesting.

For this, we placed the endogenous dbp2 gene under the control of the P.nmt1 promoter, which is repressed in the presence of thiamine.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a versatile opportunistic pathogen that adapts readily to a variety of different growth conditions. This adaptation requires a rapid regulation of gene expression including the control of mRNA abundance. The CshA DEAD-box RNA helicase was previously shown to be required for efficient turnover of the agr quorum sensing mRNA. Here we show by transcriptome-wide RNA sequencing and microarray analyses that CshA is required for the degradation of bulk mRNA. Moreover a subset of mRNAs is significantly stabilised in absence of CshA. Deletion of the C-terminal extension affects RNA turnover similar to the full deletion of the cshA gene. In accordance with RNA decay data, the C-terminal region of CshA is required for an RNA-independent interaction with components of the RNA degradation machinery. The C-terminal truncation of CshA reduces its ATPase activity and this reduction cannot be compensated at high RNA concentrations. Finally, the deletion of the C-terminal extension does affect growth at low temperatures, but to a significantly lesser degree than the full deletion, indicating that the core of the helicase can assume a partial function and opening the possibility that CshA is involved in different cellular processes.
