    Gene expression during zombie ant biting behavior reflects the complexity underlying fungal parasitic behavioral manipulation (2015)
    BioMed Central
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-20
    Description: Background: Adaptive manipulation of animal behavior by parasites functions to increase parasite transmission through changes in host behavior. These changes can range from slight alterations in existing behaviors of the host to the establishment of wholly novel behaviors. The biting behavior observed in Carpenter ants infected by the specialized fungus Ophiocordyceps unilateralis s.l. is an example of the latter. Though parasitic manipulation of host behavior is generally assumed to be due to the parasite’s gene expression, few studies have set out to test this. Results: We experimentally infected Carpenter ants to collect tissue from both parasite and host during the time period when manipulated biting behavior is experienced. Upon observation of synchronized biting, samples were collected and subjected to mixed RNA-Seq analysis. We also sequenced and annotated the O. unilateralis s.l. genome as a reference for the fungal sequencing reads. Conclusions: Our mixed transcriptomics approach, together with a comparative genomics study, shows that the majority of the fungal genes that are up-regulated during manipulated biting behavior are unique to the O. unilateralis s.l. genome. This study furthermore reveals that the fungal parasite might be regulating immune- and neuronal stress responses in the host during manipulated biting, as well as impairing its chemosensory communication and causing apoptosis. Moreover, we found genes up-regulated during manipulation that putatively encode for proteins with reported effects on behavioral outputs, proteins involved in various neuropathologies and proteins involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites such as alkaloids.

    Thick sulfate evaporite accumulations marking a mid-Neoproterozoic oxygenation event (Ten Stone Formation, Northwest Territories, Canada) (2015)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-12-30
    Description: Thick sulfate evaporite accumulations are absent from Proterozoic strata between ca. 2000 and ca. 1000 Ma, and detailed sedimentologic, stratigraphic, and geochemical data for the oldest Neoproterozoic thick marine sulfate evaporite successions are largely lacking. The middle Neoproterozoic Ten Stone Formation (Little Dal Group, Northwest Territories, Canada) consists of ~500 m of pelagic lagoonal gypsite and anhydritite (rocks consisting of the minerals gypsum and anhydrite) deposited shortly before the ca. 811 Ma Bitter Springs carbon isotope anomaly in an intracratonic basin that developed prior to breakup of Rodinia. The thickness of regional stratigraphic subdivisions of this formation, defined by subtle silt- and carbonate-bearing intervals, indicates a minor terrigenous source in the southeast and a silled connection to the open ocean in the northwest. Deposition of the Ten Stone Formation began with abrupt, tectonically triggered subsidence and restriction, and ended equally abruptly, as shown by stratigraphic contacts across which lithofacies corresponding to strikingly different paleoenvironments change sharply, with no evidence for hiatus or erosion. Stratigraphic cyclicity in the evaporite succession is minimal owing to isolation of bottom-hugging, dense lagoonal brine from overlying waters. Deposition of the Ten Stone Formation in a basin that experienced intermittent, basin-scale tectonic adjustments, as recorded by details of its stratigraphy, supports the interpretation that the Mackenzie Mountains Supergroup accumulated in an extensional, tectonically active intracratonic basin whose structure resembled a lower-plate extensional system. The absence of halite from the Ten Stone Formation contrasts with its abundance in the stratigraphically lower, gypsum-free Dodo Creek Formation, suggesting that deposition of the lower to middle Little Dal Group spanned a major oxygenation event, during which the sequence of evaporite mineral precipitation from seawater changed from halite-first to sulfate-first in response to rapid accumulation of atmospheric oxygen and concomitant increase in the global marine sulfate reservoir. The limited range of sulfur isotope values in a new data set spanning hundreds of meters of gypsite indicates a strongly and persistently oxidizing mid-Neoproterozoic atmosphere, an abundance of sulfate in seawater, and marine oxygenation extending below storm wave base. The mineralogy, sedimentology, stratigraphy, and geochemistry of the Ten Stone Formation are virtually indistinguishable from those of thick, Phanerozoic "deep-water" (below wave-base) evaporite successions, and indicate that the tectonic, climatic, and geochemical conditions required for deposition of thick successions of marine sulfate evaporites were well established prior to ca. 811 Ma. Thick sulfate evaporite successions in equivalent stratigraphic positions just below the Bitter Springs carbon isotope excursion elsewhere in Laurentia, as well as on the Congo craton, and in South Australia attest to the global impact of the rapidly increased seawater sulfate reservoir prior to Rodinia’s breakup. High relative burial rates of organic matter prevailed before the breakup of Rodinia and led to oxygenation of the atmosphere-ocean system, growth of the seawater sulfate reservoir, and, in association with a warm and arid climate, deposition for the first time in Earth’s history of thick sulfate evaporites in the middle Neoproterozoic, ~100 m.y. before the first Cryogenian glacial episode. The Neoproterozoic Oxygenation Event may have taken place in several steps, the first of which preceded the Bitter Springs anomaly.

    DNA repair. Proteomics reveals dynamic assembly of repair complexes during bypass of DNA cross-links (2015)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-05-02
    Description: DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) block replication fork progression by inhibiting DNA strand separation. Repair of ICLs requires sequential incisions, translesion DNA synthesis, and homologous recombination, but the full set of factors involved in these transactions remains unknown. We devised a technique called chromatin mass spectrometry (CHROMASS) to study protein recruitment dynamics during perturbed DNA replication in Xenopus egg extracts. Using CHROMASS, we systematically monitored protein assembly and disassembly on ICL-containing chromatin. Among numerous prospective DNA repair factors, we identified SLF1 and SLF2, which form a complex with RAD18 and together define a pathway that suppresses genome instability by recruiting the SMC5/6 cohesion complex to DNA lesions. Our study provides a global analysis of an entire DNA repair pathway and reveals the mechanism of SMC5/6 relocalization to damaged DNA in vertebrate cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Raschle, Markus -- Smeenk, Godelieve -- Hansen, Rebecca K -- Temu, Tikira -- Oka, Yasuyoshi -- Hein, Marco Y -- Nagaraj, Nagarjuna -- Long, David T -- Walter, Johannes C -- Hofmann, Kay -- Storchova, Zuzana -- Cox, Jurgen -- Bekker-Jensen, Simon -- Mailand, Niels -- Mann, Matthias -- HL098316/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 May 1;348(6234):1253671. doi: 10.1126/science.1253671.

    Histone H1 couples initiation and amplification of ubiquitin signalling after DNA damage (2015)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-10-28
    Description: DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are highly cytotoxic DNA lesions that trigger non-proteolytic ubiquitylation of adjacent chromatin areas to generate binding sites for DNA repair factors. This depends on the sequential actions of the E3 ubiquitin ligases RNF8 and RNF168 (refs 1-6), and UBC13 (also known as UBE2N), an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that specifically generates K63-linked ubiquitin chains. Whereas RNF168 is known to catalyse ubiquitylation of H2A-type histones, leading to the recruitment of repair factors such as 53BP1 (refs 8-10), the critical substrates of RNF8 and K63-linked ubiquitylation remain elusive. Here we elucidate how RNF8 and UBC13 promote recruitment of RNF168 and downstream factors to DSB sites in human cells. We establish that UBC13-dependent K63-linked ubiquitylation at DSB sites is predominantly mediated by RNF8 but not RNF168, and that H1-type linker histones, but not core histones, represent major chromatin-associated targets of this modification. The RNF168 module (UDM1) recognizing RNF8-generated ubiquitylations is a high-affinity reader of K63-ubiquitylated H1, mechanistically explaining the essential roles of RNF8 and UBC13 in recruiting RNF168 to DSBs. Consistently, reduced expression or chromatin association of linker histones impair accumulation of K63-linked ubiquitin conjugates and repair factors at DSB-flanking chromatin. These results identify histone H1 as a key target of RNF8-UBC13 in DSB signalling and expand the concept of the histone code by showing that posttranslational modifications of linker histones can serve as important marks for recognition by factors involved in genome stability maintenance, and possibly beyond.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thorslund, Tina -- Ripplinger, Anita -- Hoffmann, Saskia -- Wild, Thomas -- Uckelmann, Michael -- Villumsen, Bine -- Narita, Takeo -- Sixma, Titia K -- Choudhary, Chunaram -- Bekker-Jensen, Simon -- Mailand, Niels -- England -- Nature. 2015 Nov 19;527(7578):389-93. doi: 10.1038/nature15401.
