Genome-wide analysis of chromatin and transcription in the ciliates Oxytricha trifallax and Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:DNA N6-adenine methylation (6mA) has recently been reported in diverse eukaryotes, spanning unicellular organisms to metazoans. Yet the functional significance of 6mA remains elusive due to its low abundance, difficulty of manipulation within native DNA, and lack of understanding of eukaryotic 6mA writers. Through biochemical fractionation of nuclear extracts, we identify a putative DNA 6mA methyltransferase in ciliates, termed MTA1. It contains an MT-A70 domain but is phylogenetically distinct from all known RNA and DNA methyltransferases. Disruption of MTA1 leads to the genome-wide loss of 6mA in vegetative cells and abolishment of the consensus ApT dimethylated motif in vivo. Genes exhibit subtle changes in chromatin organization or RNA expression upon 6mA loss, depending on their starting methylation level. Mutants fail to complete the sexual cycle, which normally coincides with a peak of MTA1 expression. Thus, MTA1 functions in a developmental stage-specific manner. We then determine the impact of 6mA on chromatin organization in vitro by reconstructing full-length ciliate chromosomes harboring 6mA in native or ectopic positions. Using these synthetic chromosomes, we show that 6mA directly disfavors nucleosomes in a local, quantitative manner in vitro, independent of DNA sequence. Furthermore, the chromatin remodeler ACF can overcome this effect. Our study identifies a novel MT-A70 protein necessary for eukaryotic 6mA methylation and defines the impact of 6mA on chromatin organization using epigenetically defined chromosomes.

Functional analysis of the methyltransferase SMYD in the single-cell model organism Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:In order to resolve controversies concerning SMYD's substrates and functions, we studied SMYD1 (TTHERM_00578660), the only homologue in the unicellular eukaryote Tetrahymena thermophila. We epitope-tagged SMYD1, and analyzed its localization and interactome. We also characterized ΔSMYD1 cells, focusing on the replication and transcription phenotype. Our results show that: 1) SMYD1 is present in both cytoplasm and transcriptionally active macronucleus and shuttles between cytoplasm and macronucleus, which is consistent with its association with both histone and non-histone substrates; 2) SMYD1 is involved in DNA replication and regulates transcription of metabolism-related genes; 3) HSP90 is an potential substrate for SMYD1 and it may regulate target selection of HSP90, leading to pleiotropic effects in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus.

RNA-seq analysis of Tetrahymena thermophila

Project description:We present a comprehensive transcriptome of ciliate T. thermophila using the Illumina RNA-seq platform. The data was generated from the six mRNA samples of growth, starvation and conjugation of Tetrahymena. Despite an AT rich genome, there are about 124.6 million reads mapped to T. thermophila genome. Using these mapped reads, we have significantly improved the previous genome annotation and investigated the gene expression. Besides, our result also provided a comprehensive understanding of the alternative splicing in T. thermophila, and suggested the existence of the regulated unproductive splicing and translation (RUST) in the single-celled eukaryote. RNA-seq for six samples of Tetrahymena growth, starvation and conjugation.

Gene expression of Tetrahymena thermophila SB210 under the arsenic exposure

Project description:To identified the differential expressed genes between the arsenic exposure cells and wild type cells As is a well- known carcinogen, it receives special attention. Due to its ubiquitous distribution in the environment, a unicellular model system related to the environment will be useful in toxicological research of arsenic. The eukaryotic protist Tetrahymena thermophila is a well-established model in classical toxicology and now a potential model at genomic level. In the present study, Tetrahymena thermophila was inbred with arsenate. With the use of microarray technique, the genes differentially expressed at 4 time points in exposure to arsenate were screened out. The major biological processes involved and their changes over time were identified with enrichment analysis and transformed expression data. Characteristics of arsenic toxicity and response to arsenic were identified, proving T. thermophila a good unicellular model for arsenic toxicological research at genomic level.
