Project description:In some of the earliest uses of genome-wide gene-expression microarrays and array-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH), a set of diploid yeasts that had undergone experimental evolution under aerobic glucose limitation was used to explore how gene expression and genome structure had responded to this selection pressure. To more deeply understand how adaptation to one environment might constrain or enhance performance in another we have now identified the adaptive mutations in this set of clones using whole-genome sequencing, and have assessed whether the evolved clones had become generalists or specialists by assaying their fitness under three contrasting growth environments: aerobic and anaerobic glucose limitation and aerobic acetate limitation. Additionally, evolved clones and their common ancestor were assayed for gene expression, biomass estimates and residual substrate levels under the alternative growth conditions. Relative fitnesses were evaluated by competing each clone against a common reference strain in each environment. Unexpectedly, we found that the evolved clones also outperformed their ancestor under strictly fermentative and strictly oxidative growth conditions. We conclude that yeasts evolving under aerobic glucose limitation become generalists for carbon limitation, as the mutations selected for in one environment are advantageous in others. High-throughput sequencing of the evolved clones uncovered mutations in genes involved in glucose sensing, signaling, and transport that in part explain these physiological phenotypes, with different sets of mutations found in independently-evolved clones. Earlier gene expression data from aerobic glucose-limited cultures had revealed a shift from fermentation towards respiration in all evolved clones explaining increased fitness in that condition. However, because the evolved clones also show higher fitness under strictly anaerobic conditions and under conditions requiring strictly respirative growth, this switch cannot be the sole source of adaptive benefit. Furthermore, because independently evolved clones are genetically distinct we conclude that there are multiple mutational paths leading to the generalist phenotype.

Project description:The hypothesis that increased fitness within a selective environment must be accompanied by a loss of fitness in other non-selective environments leads to the notion of evolutionary tradeoffs. Experimental evolution provides an approach to test the existence of evolutionary tradeoffs, characterize their general quality, and reveal their genetic origins. To examine the underlying mechanism for a fitness trade-off, we constructed the evolutionary trajectories of Escherichia coli K-12 at increasing temperatures up to 45.3°C, and found diverging mutational histories that led to adaptive phenotypes with and without fitness trade-offs at low temperatures. We identified genetic changes in cellular respiration, iron metabolism and methionine biosynthesis that regulated gene expression to achieve thermal adaptation and determined the presence and absence of a fitness trade-off. Our results suggested that evolutionary trade-off could be generated by a regulatory protein mutation that was beneficial in the selective conditions but forced suboptimal proteome allocation under non-selective environments.

Project description:Deep mutational scanning is a powerful method for exploring the mutational fitness landscape of proteins. Its adaptation to anti-CRISPR proteins, which are natural CRISPR-Cas inhibitors and key players in the co-evolution of microbes and phages, facilitates their characterization and optimization. Here, we developed a robust anti-CRISPR deep mutational scanning pipeline in Escherichia coli that combines synthetic gene circuits based on CRISPR interference with flow cytometry coupled sequencing and mathematical modeling. Using this pipeline, we characterized comprehensive single point mutation libraries for AcrIIA4 and AcrIIA5, two potent inhibitors of CRISPR-Cas9. The resulting mutational fitness landscapes revealed considerable mutational tolerance for both Acrs, suggesting an intrinsic redundancy with respect to Cas9 inhibitory features, and – for AcrIIA5 – indicated mutations that boost Cas9 inhibition. Subsequent in vitro characterization suggested that the observed differences in inhibitory potency between mutant inhibitors were mostly due to changes in binding affinity rather than protein expression levels. Finally, to demonstrate that our pipeline can inform Acrs-based genome editing applications, we employed a selected subset of mutant inhibitors to increase CRISPR-Cas9 target specificity by modulating Cas9 activity. Taken together, our work establishes deep mutational scanning as a powerful method for anti-CRISPR protein characterization and optimization.

Project description:Divergent adaptation can be associated with reproductive isolation in the process of speciation. We recently demonstrated the link between divergent adaptation and the onset of reproductive isolation in experimental populations of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae evolved from a single progenitor in either a high-salt or a low-glucose environment. However, the genetic basis for adaptation and reproductive isolation remained unknown in this system. Here, we use whole-genome re-sequencing of representatives of three populations to identify 15 candidate mutations, six of which explained the adaptive increases in mitotic fitness in the two environments. In two populations evolved in high salt, two different mutations occurred in the proton efflux pump gene PMA1 and the global transcriptional repressor gene CYC8; the ENA genes encoding sodium efflux pumps were over-expressed once through expansion of this gene cluster and once as a result of the mutation in the regulator CYC8. In the population from low glucose, one mutation occurred in MDS3, which modulates growth at high pH, and one in MKT1, a global regulator of mRNAs encoding mitochondrial proteins, the latter recapitulating a naturally-occurring variant. A Dobzhansky-Muller (DM) incompatibility between the evolved alleles of PMA1 and MKT1 strongly depressed fitness in the low-glucose environment. This DM interaction is the first reported between experimentally evolved alleles of known genes and shows how reproductive isolation can arise rapidly when divergent selection is strong. Evolved and progenitor strains were grown in stressed and unstressed conditions to identify role of mutations in gene expression.

Project description:The NS1 protein of influenza A virus (IAV) is a multifunctional virulence factor. Mouse adaptive mutations in the NS1 protein of the human isolate A/Hong Kong/1/1968(H3N2) (HK) have been previously reported to increase virulence, viral fitness, and interferon antagonism, but differ in binding to post-transcriptional processing factor CPSF30. Because nuclear trafficking is a major genetic determinant of influenza virus host adaptation, we assessed subcellular localization and host gene expression of NS1 adaptive mutations. Recombinant HK viruses with adaptive mutations in the NS1 gene were assessed for NS1 protein subcellular localization in mouse and human cells using confocal microscopy and cellular fractionation. HK-wt virus NS1 partitioned equivalently between the cytoplasm and nucleus in human cells but was defective in cytoplasmic localization in mouse cells. The adaptive mutations either increased the proportion or abundance of NS1 in the cytoplasm, and/or the nucleus. NS1 mutations that increased cytoplasmic distribution identified a putative second nuclear export signal (NES) spanning aa positions 98-106 LSEDWFMLM, (mutation sites in bold); with the strongest effect seen for mutation M106I. The putative NES in the NS3 protein was associated with cytoplasmic localization. The host gene expression profile of the adaptive mutants was determined by microarray analysis of infected mouse cells to show either high or low gene regulation (HGR or LGR) phenotypes that mapped to the amino-terminal and the carboxy-terminal regions respectively. The HGR and LGR mutations were predominantly down regulating versus up regulating respectively. The greatest effect on host gene expression in the HGR group correlated with the ability of the NS1 protein to bind CPSF30. To our knowledge this is the first report of roles of adaptive NS1 mutations that affect intracellular localization and regulation of host gene expression. biological triplicates of mock infected mouse M1 cells; cells infected with A/HK/1/1968(H3N2) wt and NS1 mtuatn with mutaions, D2N, V23A, L98S, L98S + M106I, F103L, M106V, M106V + M124I, D125G, V180A, V226I, M106I, and R227K.

Project description:The myeloid transcription factor CEBPA is recurrently biallelically mutated (i.e., double mutated; CEBPADM) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML); with a combination of hypermorphic N-terminal mutations (CEBPANT), promoting expression of the leukemia-associated p30 isoform, and amorphic C-terminal mutations. CEBPADM AML features recurrent co‑occurring mutations; however, insight into the underlying mechanisms for the co-mutational spectra is incomplete. By combining transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of data from CEBPA-TET2-co-mutant patients with experimental models thereof, we identify GATA2 as a conserved target of the CEBPA-TET2 mutational axis, providing a rationale for the mutational spectra in CEBPADM AML. Mechanistically, we suggest that elevated CEBPA levels, driven by the CEBPANT, mediate recruitment of TET2 to the GATA2 distal hematopoietic enhancer and thereby increase GATA2 expression. Conversely, CEBPADM AML gains a competitive advantage by loss of TET2; decreasing GATA2 promoter demethylation and re-balancing GATA2 levels. Further, demethylating treatment of CEBPA-TET2-co-mutant AML restores GATA2 levels, and prolongs disease latency.

Project description:Alteration of normal ploidy (aneuploidy) is an important mechanism of evolution of species. It has been linked to a rapid response to stress and is regarded as a hallmark of cancer. While increased genomic instability of aneuploid cells can accelerate genetic diversification and facilitate adaptation, these cells also face the adverse effects of gene imbalance, resulting in fitness cost. Here, to understand the mechanisms through which cells respond to aneuploidy and develop tolerance leading to fitness restoration, we subjected disomic (i.e. with an extra chromosome copy) strains of yeast to long-term experimental evolution, forcing disomy maintenance with selection markers. We characterized mutations, karyotype alterations and gene expression changes throughout adaptive evolution, and analyzed them to dissect the associated molecular strategies. Cells with different extra chromosomes accumulated mutations at distinct rates, and endured a diverse array of adaptive events. Despite remarkable diversity of these events, cells tended to evolve towards normal ploidy through both chromosomal DNA loss and changes in gene expression. We identified genes commonly altered during the evolution of disomic strains, and genes recurrently mutated in multiple lines. Our analyses revealed protein translation, amino acid biosynthesis, transcription regulation, stress response, and nucleotide and protein degradation as key pathways for the adaptive response to aneuploidy and identified transcription factors that mediate this response. Together, these findings define cellular strategies that underlie tolerance to aneuploidy.
