Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous and psychrophilic foodborne pathogen commonly found in raw materials, ready to eat products and food environments. It was previously demonstrated that L. monocytogenes can grow faster at low temperature when unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) are present in its environment. In this study, we used comparative gene expression profiling of RNA-sequencing data to understand the impact of UFA on the behavior and cold adaptation of L. monocytogenes. We demonstrate that the incorporation of UFA into the membrane induces changes in the regulation of overall fatty acid biosynthesis, which prompts us to propose two hypotheses for UFA synthesis in L. monocytogenes. The general stress response is also highly impacted by the incorporation of UFA into the membrane at low temperature. In particular, we hypothesize that transcriptional regulation of cspB is not a temperature dependent mechanism, but could be related to a membrane fluidity stimulus. Furthermore, when UFA are incorporated into the membrane at low temperature, we observed overexpression of genes involved in flagella assembly. This study sheds light on the cold adaptation of L. monocytogenes in the presence of exogenous FA and on potential concerns for controlling these bacteria in food environments.

Project description:The aim of this work is to investigate whether A. thaliana senses low temperature by perceiving changes in membrane fluidity. To this end, we have performed an experiment to test whether mutant or transgenic plants with altered membrane lipid composition, regulate their gene expression in the same manner as wild type plants in response to cold. Previous work has demonstrated that a change in the expression levels of a number of genes is important in acquiring tolerance to low temperatures. Chemicals which rigidify cell membranes in such a way as to mimic the effects of cold have been shown to be able to induce the expression of such genes. However, because of the non-specific nature of such chemical treatments, it has not been possible to demonstrate unequivocally that the changes in gene expression observed were the result of changes in membrane fluidity. All of the mutants used in our experiment, fab1, fad2-2 and the fad3/fad7/fad8 mutant, have increased lipid saturation levels compared to wild type plants and are thought to have reduced membrane fluidity. The fab1 mutant is also known to be sensitive to chilling. In the fab1 mutant the elongation of 16:0 fatty acids to 18:0 is reduced. The fad2-2 mutant has reduced 18:1 desaturase activity and hence reduced amounts of polyunsaturated phospholipids. The fad3/fad7/fad8 triple mutant is deficient in 18:2 desaturase activity and consequently unable to synthesise trienoic fatty acids. The transgenic line used contained a 35S::FAD3 transgene and in contrast to the mutants tested, should have increased lipid desaturation and increased membrane fluidity. A. thaliana ecotype Col-0 was used as the wild type control for the fab1 and fad2-2 mutants, in addition to the 35S::FAD3 line. The fad3/fad7/fad8 mutant had previously been transformed with the 35S::apoaequorin transgene and a Columbia line expressing apoaequorin under the control of the same promoter, was included to control for the presence of aequorin. Nine day old seedlings grown in petri-dishes on MS were transferred from their growth room (20 oC, 16 h photoperiod, 100 E m-2 s-1) to a growth cabinet (20 oC, 16 h photoperiod,160 m-2 s-1) 24 hours before the experiment began. The next day, one petri-dish of seedlings from each line of plants used was transferred to a cabinet running at 5 oC (16 h photoperiod,160 E m-2 s-1). Control plates remained at 20 oC. Seedlings were harvested after three hours and frozen in liquid nitrogen. 12 samples were used in this experiment

Project description:Cold affects many aspects of biology, medicine, agriculture and industry. Here, we identify a conserved endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, distinct from the canonical unfolded protein response, which maintains lipid homeostasis during extreme cold stress. We establish that the ER stress sensor IRE-1 is critical for resistance to extreme cold and is activated by cold temperature. Specifically, neuronal IRE-1 signals via JNK-1 and neuropeptide-mediated signalling to regulate lipid composition throughout the animal. The requirement of this cold-response pathway can be bypassed by supplementation with unsaturated fatty acids or by altering the diet . Altogether, our findings define an ER-centric conserved organism-wide cold stress response pathway, consisting of sensors, effectors and signalling moieties, which control adaptation to cold throughout the organism. Better understanding of the molecular basis of cold adaptation is crucial for the design of safe and optimal use of cold conditions on live organisms and samples, and for the development of better treatments for hypothermia. Conclusions: Our study represents a detailed analysis of C.elegans transcriptomes during cold stress, with biological replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.

Project description:To understand the role of pentacyclic triterpenoids, we used whole genome microarray expression profiling of wild type and hopanoid deficient mutant. Hopanoid deficiency may leads to weakened structural integrity of cell membrane and may affect the other structures within or spanning cell envelope resulting in impaired lipid ordering which is linked to permeability, fluidity, permeability barrier, ion conductivity, cell potential, cell signalling and lateral segregation. Hopanoids are involved in antibiotic resistance and tolerance to stress, but the precise understanding is lacking. Understanding the role of hopanoids in shaping membrane properties would provide an important step towards bridging this gap.

Project description:Storage at low temperatures is one of the most used methods to prolong the life of postharvest peaches (Prunus persica (L) Batch.). However, fruit quality is adversely affected by the development of woolliness, a physiological disorder that is apparent when the fruit is ripened after prolonged periods of cold storage and is mainly manifested as loss of juice in the peaches. The aim of this study was to obtain a more detailed cohort of genes that underlie the wolliness in a segregating population with contrasting phenotypes of mealiness after being exposed to cold storage at 4 °C. For this, a transcriptomics approach was applied to fruits from a progeny of individuals accounted for 6% more juicy and woolly 6% over a 2 years. Our results suggest that not only genes related to the maintenance of cell wall architecture may contribute to the development of mealy phenotype. Based on its possible physiological process and differential pattern of expression transcriptomic profiles show that genes related to maintenance (modification I) and membrane fluidity account for the differences between fruits that exhibit contrasting phenotypes of mealiness. These genes may contribute to tolerance to cold during storage.

Project description:Cold hardening treatment, a brief exposure to low temperatures (e.g. 0°C for 2 h), can protect certain insects against subsequent exposure to temperatures sufficiently low to cause damage or lethality. Microarray analysis to examine the changes in transcript abundance associated with cold hardening has been undertaken in Drosophila melanogaster in order to gain insight into this phenomenon. Transcripts associated with 36 genes were identified, a subset of which appeared to be also differentially expressed after heat shock treatment. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to independently determine transcript abundance of a subset of these sequences. Taken together, these assays suggest that stress proteins, including Hsp23, Hsp26, Hsp83 and Frost as well as membrane-associated proteins may contribute to the cold hardening response.

These genes may contribute to tolerance to cold during storage. We analyzed a total of 9 woolly fruits (from 3 different trees, 3 fruits from each tree) and 12 juicy fruits (from 4 different trees, 3 fruits from each tree). An RNA pool from 9 woolly fruits was used as reference and was compared to an RNA pool of 3 juicy fruits from each individual tree. Two technical replicates were done for each comparison, thus making in total 8 hybridizations.
