Project description:RNA decay was measured in Prochlorococcus after inhibition of transcription by rifampicin using customized Affymetrix gene expression arrays. RNA turnover plays an important role in the gene regulation of microorganisms and influences their speed of acclimation to environmental changes. We investigated whole-genome RNA stability of Prochlorococcus, a relatively slow-growing marine cyanobacterium doubling approximately once a day, which is extremely abundant in the oceans. Using a combination of microarrays, quantitative RT-PCR and a new algorithm for determining RNA decay rates, we found a median half-life of 2.4 min and a median decay rate of 2.6 min for expressed genes â two-fold faster than that reported for any organism. The shortest transcript half-life (33 seconds) was for a gene of unknown function, while some of the longest (ca. 18 min) were for highly expressed genes. Genes organized in operons displayed intriguing mRNA decay patterns, such as increased stability, and delayed onset of decay with greater distance from the transcriptional start site. The same phenomenon was observed on a single probe resolution for genes greater than 2 kb. We hypothesize that the fast turnover relative to generation time in Prochlorococcus may enable a swift response to environmental changes through rapid recycling of nucleotides, which could be advantageous in nutrient poor oceans. Our growing understanding of RNA half-lives will inform on the modelling of cell processes and help interpret the growing bank of metatranscriptomic studies of wild populations of Prochlorococcus. The surprisingly complex decay patterns of large transcripts reported here, and the method developed to describe them, will open new avenues for the investigation and understanding of RNA decay for all organisms. Prochlorococcus cells were treated with rifampicin, which prevents initiation of new transcripts. Cells were harvested at 0 min (before rifampicin addition), 2.5 min, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 40 min and 60 min after rifampicin addition.

Project description:Background
Cancer is one of the leading causes for the morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although substantial studies have been conducted theoretically and experimentally in recent years, it is still a challenge to explore the mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression. The investigation for these problems is very important for the diagnosis of cancer diseases and development of treatment schemes.
Results
To accurately describe the process of cancer initiation, we propose a new concept of gene initial mutation rate based on our recently designed mathematical model using the non-constant mutation rate. Unlike the widely-used average gene mutation rate that depends on the number of mutations, the gene initial mutation rate can be used to describe the initiation process of a single patient. In addition, we propose the instantaneous tumour doubling time that is a continuous function of time based on the non-constant mutation rate. Our proposed concepts are supported by the clinic data of seven patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The regression results suggest that, compared with the average mutation rate, the estimated initial mutation rate has a larger value of correlation coefficient with the patient survival time. We also provide the estimated tumour size of these seven patients over time.
Conclusions
The proposed concepts can be used to describe the cancer initiation and progression for different patients more accurately. Since a quantitative understanding of cancer progression is important for clinical treatment, our proposed model and calculated results may provide insights into the development of treatment schemes and also have other clinic implications.

Project description:Prochlorococcus is found throughout the euphotic zone in the oligotrophic open ocean. Deep mixing and sinking in aggregates or while attached to particles can, however, transport cells below this sunlit zone, depriving them of light for extended periods of time and influencing their circulation via ocean currents. Viability of these cells over extended periods of darkness could shape the ecology and evolution of the Prochlorococcus collective. We have shown that when co-cultured with a heterotrophic microbe and subjected to repeated periods of extended darkness, Prochlorococcus cells develop a heritable dark-tolerant phenotype – through an apparent epigenetic mechanism – such that they survive longer periods of darkness. Here we examine this adaptation at the level of physiology and metabolism in co-cultures of dark-tolerant and parent strains of Prochlorococcus, each grown with the heterotroph Alteromonas under diel light:dark conditions. The relative abundance of Alteromonas is higher in dark-tolerant than parental co-cultures, while dark tolerant Prochlorococcus cells are also larger, contain less chlorophyll, and are less synchronized to the light:dark cycle. Meta-transcriptome analysis of the cultures further suggests that dark-tolerant co-cultures undergo a coupled shift in which Prochlorococcus uses more organic carbon and less photosynthesis, and Alteromonas uses more organic acids and fewer sugars. Collectively, the data suggest that dark adaptation involves a loosening of the coupling between Prochlorococcus metabolism and the light:dark cycle and a strengthening of the coupling between the carbon metabolism of Prochlorococcus and Alteromonas.

Project description:Prochlorococcus genomes harbor a new type of mobile genetic elements named tycheposons. To study the effects on environmental stress on the gene expression and induction of tycheposons, we subjugated cultures of Prochlorococcus strain MIT0604 containing 7 such elements to treatments with mitomycin C and UV stress.

Project description:microarray experiment to test the gene expression in long term lines of mutator and non-mutator yeast. Here we use an experimental evolution approach to investigate the conditions required for evolution of a reduction in mutation rate and the mechanisms by which populations tolerate the accumulation of deleterious mutations. We find that after ~6700 generations four out of eight experimental mutator lines had evolved a decreased mutation rate.

Project description:RNA-Seq technique was used to obtain the transcriptome map of Prochlorococcus MED4, including operons, untranslated regions, non-coding RNAs, and novel genes. Genome-wide expression profiles revealed that three factors contribute to core genome stabilization. First, a negative correlation between gene expression levels and protein evolutionary rates was observed. Highly expressed genes were overrepresented in the core genome but not in the flexible genome. Gene necessity was determined as a second powerful constraint on genome evolution through functional enrichment analysis. Third, quick mRNA turnover may increase corresponding proteinsM-bM-^@M-^Y fidelity among genes that were abundantly expressed. Together, these factors influence core genome stabilization during MED4 genome evolution. The cells were cultured on Pro99 medium for a certain time course (1, 3, 4, 8, and 10 days); or transferred to AMP (Artificial Medium for Prochlorococcus) with 6 mM or 24 mM sodium bicarbonate for 5 or 10 hours.
