Project description:The present work describes the effects on iron homeostasis when copper transport was deregulated in Arabidopsis thaliana by overexpressing copper transporters (COPTOE). A genome-wide analysis conducted on COPT1OE plants, highlighted that iron homeostasis gene expression was affected, both under copper deficiency and excess. Among the inhibited genes were those encoding the iron uptake machinery and their transcriptional regulators. Subsequently, COPTOE seedlings contained less iron and were more sensitive than controls to iron deficiency. These results emphasized the importance of appropriate spatiotemporal copper uptake for iron homeostasis under copper deficiency. The deregulation of copper-I uptake difficulted the transcriptional activation of the subgroup Ib of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH-Ib) factors. Oppositely, copper excess inhibited the expression of the master regulator FIT but activate bHLH-Ib expression in COPTOE plants, in both cases leading to the lack of an adequate iron uptake response. As copper increased in the media, iron-III was accumulated in roots, accounting for a defective iron mobilization to the aerial parts, and this effect was exacerbated in COPTOE plants. Thus, iron-III overloading in roots inhibited local iron deficiency responses, aimed to metal uptake from soil, leading to a general lower iron content in the COPTOE seedlings. The understanding of the role of copper uptake in iron metabolism could be applied for increasing crops resistance to iron deficiency

Project description:The present work describes the effects on iron homeostasis when copper transport was deregulated in Arabidopsis thaliana by overexpressing high affinity copper transporters COPT1 and COPT3 (COPTOE ). A genome-wide analysis conducted on COPT1OE plants, highlighted that iron homeostasis gene expression was affected under both copper deficiency and excess. Among the altered genes were those encoding the iron uptake machinery and their transcriptional regulators. Subsequently, COPTOE seedlings contained less iron and were more sensitive than controls to iron deficiency. The deregulation of copper (I) uptake hindered the transcriptional activation of the subgroup Ib of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH-Ib) factors under copper deficiency. Oppositely, copper excess inhibited the expression of the master regulator FIT but activated bHLH-Ib expression in COPTOE plants, in both cases leading to the lack of an adequate iron uptake response. As copper increased in the media, iron (III) was accumulated in roots, and the ratio iron (III)/iron (II) was increased in COPTOE plants. Thus, iron (III) overloading in COPTOE roots inhibited local iron deficiency responses, aimed to metal uptake from soil, leading to a general lower iron content in the COPTOE seedlings. These results emphasized the importance of appropriate spatiotemporal copper uptake for iron homeostasis under non-optimal copper supply. The understanding of the role of copper uptake in iron metabolism could be applied for increasing crops resistance to iron deficiency.

Project description:The transition metal Cu is an essential micronutrient in biological systems. The majority of Cu is taken up into the cell through the Cu transporter CTR1 and thus, deletion of Ctr1 results in Cu deficiency. Here we performed transcriptional profiling of isogenic mouse embryonic fibroblast harboring conditional alleles for Ctr1 floxed out or intact through in vitro administration of doxycycline. The goal was to elucidate gene expression changes upon knockout of Ctr1.

Project description:Iron and copper are important environmental nutrients for plant growth. However, the molecular mechanisms of both iron and copper signaling that integrate the two pathways remain poorly understood. The Arabidopsis thaliana high affinity copper transporter COPT5, is a tonoplast localized permease involved in copper remobilization. Here, a global expression microarray analysis of the copt5 mutant points out the induction of iron deficiency responses, including NATURAL RESISTANCE-ASSOCIATED MACROPHAGE PROTEIN 4 (NRAMP4), a tonoplast-localized iron transporter. The copper requirement in iron perception and uptake from the media becomes more evident in the double nramp3nramp4 mutant, unable to remobilize iron from vacuoles, that is highly sensitive to copper deficiency. Furthermore, COPT5 expression is altered under iron deficiency and the copt5 mutant is sensitive to iron deficiency and is unable to perceive iron in the media under copper deficiency. Noteworthy, iron deficiency post-transcriptionally restraints the copper-dependent superoxide dismutase protein levels and the subsequent activity. As a consequence of its increased iron deficiency responses, the copt5 mutant present lower levels of both copper- and iron-dependent superoxide dismutase activities. Moreover, the copt5 mutant mobilizes faster its iron storage pools and presents higher levels of iron in cotyledons and seeds. These results underline the importance of internal metal pools in the understanding of copper and iron deficiency responses and their crosstalk that are critical for governing proper plant development in response to combined metal scarcities in soils.

Project description:Study is aimed to understand translation regulation of mRNA in low and high polyamines in S. cerevisiae. mRNA seq and Ribosome profiling were performed in yeast cells, in duplicates, under low (0 spermidine) and high (10 µM) spermidine. Translation efficiency was calculated (low vs high SPD) and GO analysis reveals 23 transporters as the only class undergo TE downregulation in high SPD condition. Further, we investigated role of these 23 transporters in polyamine transport and identified HOL1 as the high affinity polyamine transporter. This study further show that HOL1 is under polyamine control of translation regulation through conserved fungal uORF MLLLPS*.

Project description:L-Arabinose occurs at economically relevant levels in lignocellulosic hydrolysates. Especially at low concentrations of L-arabinose, its uptake via the Gal2 galactose transporter is an important rate-controlling step in the complete conversion of these feedstocks by engineered, pentose-metabolizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. Chemostat-based transcriptome analysis yielded 16 putative sugar transporter genes in the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum whose transcript levels were at least three-fold higher in L-arabinose-limited cultures than in glucose-limited and ethanol-limited cultures. Of five genes that showed an over 30-fold higher transcript level in arabinose-grown cultures, only one (Pc20g01790) restored growth on L-arabinose upon expression in an engineered L-arabinose-fermenting S. cerevisiae strain in which GAL2 had been deleted. Sugar-transport assays indicated that Pc20g01790this transporter, designated as PcAraT, encodes functions as a high-affinity (Km = 0.13 mM) L-arabinose-proton symporter that does not transport xylose or glucose. An L-arabinose-metabolizing S. cerevisiae strain co-expressing Pc20g01790PcAraT and GAL2 showed lower residual substrate concentrations in L-arabinose-limited chemostat cultures (4 mg L-1) than a congenic strain in which L-arabinose import exclusively depended on Gal2 (1.8 g L-1). Inhibition of L-arabinose transport by these sugars was less pronounced than observed with Gal2. A hexose-phosphorylation-deficient, L-arabinose-metabolizing S. cerevisiae strain expressing PcAraT Pc20g0190 grew on 20 g L-1 L-arabinose in the presence of 20 g L-1 glucose, which completely inhibited growth on L-arabinose of a congenic strain dependent on L-arabinose transport via Gal2. Its high affinity and specificity for L-L-arabinose, combined with limited sensitivity to inhibition by glucose and D-D-xylose make PcAraT/ Pc20g01790 a valuable transporter gene for application in metabolic engineering strategies aimed at engineering S. cerevisiae strains for efficient conversion of lignocellulosic hydrolysates.

Project description:The essential yet toxic nature of Cu ions in living cells requires exquisite control of Cu homeostasis. The fungal pathogen C. neoformans regulates Cu homeostasis for survival during a complex host colonization process. During pulmonary infection host innate immune cells use Cu in an attempt to toxify C. neoformans, which responds by activating expression of Cu detoxifying proteins. However, during brain colonization expression of the fungal Cu import machinery is activated and required for virulence. To achieve the genetic plasticity required for adaptation to a continuum of distinct Cu environments within the host, C. neoformans utilizes the Cu-responsive transcription factor, Cuf1. Cuf1 is unique as it senses and responds to both high and low Cu environments, activating different sets of genes dependent on environmental Cu status. Cells lacking Cuf1 are compromised for colonization of the lungs and brain, highlighting Cuf1 as an important virulence factor. A genome-wide assessment of the Cuf1 binding sites in the genome of C. neoformans driven by Cu status identified novel genes required for adaptation to high and low Cu environments. These genes and their regulation provide new insights with respect to adaptive responses to changes in host Cu availability and could reveal new targets for therapeutic intervention in cryptococcosis.
