项目摘要

Project Summary / Abstract Communication likely first evolved on our planet as chemical signals between single-cell microorganisms. A fundamental purpose for this type of communication in modern microorganisms is to allow these microbes to self-organize into functional communities. Colonies of the budding yeast, S. cerevisiae, provide an opportunity to investigate this type of community organization due to this model organism's peerless genome annotation and genetic malleability. The Honigberg lab discovered that diploid yeast colonies are organized into a layer of feeder cells underlying a layer of meiotic (sporulating) cells. Furthermore, the relative number of cells and dimensions of the two layers depends on colony environment. Feeder cells may stimulate sporulation in the overall community by providing nutrients to the cells of the overlying layer. In addition to its scientific interest, the health relevance of the proposed research derives from the fact that the spatial organization of pathogenic yeast biofilms contributes significantly to the lethality of hospital-acquired fungal infections. Furthermore, mechanisms of microbial community organization could help elucidate the forces driving organization of tissues and tumors in humans. A long-range goal of the Honigberg lab is to identify the mechanisms that regulate the self- organization of yeast colonies from homogeneous to highly patterned communities. The first specific aim of the application is to test the “Differential Partitioning provides Environmental Buffer” hypothesis by determining whether the number of feeder cells in colonies correlates with the dependency on these feeder cells for sporulation across a range of conditions. In addition, we will determine whether establishing and maintaining differential partitioning depends on both cell autonomous and cell nonautonomous mechanisms. The second specific aim is to characterize feeder cells with respect to the similarity of expression patterns to quiescent cells found in cultures, and to test the hypotheses that the number of feeder cells in colonies responds to the respiratory state of the colony through mitochondrial signaling. Three complementary approaches are employed to address the above hypotheses. The first approach measures expression of known feeder-cell specific or sporulation-specific genes within intact wild- type or mutant colonies by confocal or multi-photon fluorescent microscopy, and to measure co-localization of these genes in cell populations from resuspended colonies. The second approach examines partitioning and other markers of colony development across a 2-D environmental landscape, i.e. when two environmental conditions (such as temperature or concentration of nutrients) are both varied. The third approach compares gene expression patterns in feeder and sporulation cell layers using FACS-Seq.

项目摘要 /摘要通信可能首先在我们的星球上演变为单细胞微生物之间的化学信号。一个现代微生物中这种交流的基本目的是允许这些微生物自我组织成功能社区。酿酒酵母的发芽酵母菌的殖民地提供了一个由于这个模型组织的无与伦比的，有机会调查这种类型的社区组织基因组注释和遗传性营养性。 Honigberg实验室发现二倍体酵母菌菌落是组织成一层减数分裂（孢子）细胞的材料细胞。此外，细胞的相对数量和两层的尺寸取决于菌落环境。馈线细胞可以通过为上覆层的细胞提供营养来刺激整个社区的孢子形成。除了其科学利益外，提议的研究的健康相关性从病原性酵母菌生物膜的空间组织对医院获得的真菌感染。此外，微生物社区组织的机制可以有助于阐明人类组织和肿瘤的驱动力组织。 Honigberg实验室的远程目标是确定调节自我的机制组织从同质到高度图案的社区的酵母菌殖民地。第一个具体目的的该应用程序是通过通过确定菌落中的馈线数量是否与对这些馈线的依赖性相关细胞在各种条件下进行孢子形成。此外，我们将确定是否建立和维持差异分区取决于细胞自主和细胞非自主机制。第二个具体目的是表征相对于表达模式与在培养物中发现的静态细胞，并测试菌落中馈物细胞数量的假设通过线粒体信号传导对菌落呼吸状态的反应。采用三种完整的方法来解决上述假设。第一个方法衡量完整野生 - 通过共聚焦或多光子荧光显微镜进行类型或突变菌落，并测量共定位来自恢复菌落的细胞群中的这些基因。第二种方法考试分区以及二维环境环境中殖民地发展的其他标记，即两个环境条件（例如温度或养分浓度）均各不相同。第三方法使用FACS-Seq比较了馈线和孢子型细胞层中的基因表达模式。
