All ovo- alleles were created as partial revertants of the antimorphic ovoD1 allele. Creation of new targeted alleles in an ovo+ background indicated that disrupting the germline-specific exon extension of ovo-B leads to an arrested egg chamber phenotype, rather than germ cell death. RNA-seq analysis, including >1K full length cDNAs, indicates that ovo has several unannotated splice variations in the extended exon and a minor population of ovo-B transcripts have an alternative splice. This indicates that classical ovo alleles such as ovoD1rv23, are not truly null for ovo, and are likely to be weak antimorphs. To generate bonafide nulls, we deleted the ovo-A and ovo-B promoters showing that only ovo-B is required for female germ cell viability and there is an early and continual developmental requirement for ovo-B in the female germline. To visualize OVO expression and localization, we endogenously tagged ovo and found nuclear OVO in all differentiating female germ cells throughout oogenesis in adults. We also found that OVO is maternally deposited into the embryo, where it showed nuclear localization in newly formed pole cells. Maternal OVO persisted in embryonic germ cells until zygotic OVO expression was detectable, suggesting that there is continuous nuclear OVO expression in the female germline in the transition from one generation to the next.</p>","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142566339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The majority of mutants with upregulated genes in single-housed males significantly altered LMD behavior but not copulation latency, suggesting a primary regulation of mating duration.

Functional validation confirmed the roles of these genes in mediating LMD. Expression of LMD genes like Cyp6a20, Cyp4d21, and CrzR was enriched in cone cells, with disruptions in cone cell-specific expression of CrzR and Cyp4d21 leading to disrupted LMD. We also identified a novel gene, CG10026/Macewindu, that reversed LMD when overexpressed in cone cells.

Here, we developed and characterized conditional and truncation mutants of ppc89.

Artificial tethering of Sid4 to the SPB fully rescued these ppc89 mutants. Another ppc89 allele had mutations located throughout the coding region. While this mutant was also defective in Sid4 anchoring, it displayed additional defects including fragmented SPBs and forming and constricting a second cytokinetic ring in one daughter cell. These defects were shared with a ppc89 allele truncated of the most C-terminal predicted ɑ-helices that is still able to recruit Sid4 and the SIN.

Upon translation, codons, the three-nucleotide sequences interpreted by ribosomes, have regulatory properties affecting mRNA stability, a phenomenon known as codon optimality. Codon optimality has been previously observed in vertebrates during embryogenesis, where specific codons can influence the stability and degradation rates of mRNA transcripts. In our previous work, we demonstrated that codon optimality impacts mRNA stability in human cell lines. However, the extent to which codon content influences vertebrate gene expression in vivo remained unclear. In this study, we expand on our previous findings by demonstrating that codon optimality has a robust effect on homeostatic mRNA and protein levels in whole zebrafish during normal physiological conditions. Using reporters with nearly identical nucleotide sequences but different codon compositions, all expressed from the same genomic locus, we show that codon composition can significantly influence gene expression. This study provides new insights into the regulatory roles of codon usage in vertebrate gene expression and underscores the importance of considering codon optimality in genetic and translational research.

Multivariate mixed model analysis, in which many traits are considered jointly, utilizes genetic and environmental correlations between traits to improve the accuracy. However, the number of parameters in the multitrait model grows exponentially with the number of traits which reduces its scalability. Here, we suggest using principal component analysis to reduce the dimensions of the response variables, and then using the computed principal components as separate responses in the genetic evaluation analysis. As principal components are orthogonal to each other so that phenotypic covariance is abscent between principal components, a full multivariate analysis can be approximated by separate univariate analyses instead which should speed up computations considerably. We compared the approach to both traditional multivariate analysis and factor analytic approach in terms of computational requirement and rank lists according to predicted genetic merit on two forest tree datasets with 22 and 27 measured traits, respectively. Obtained rank lists of the top 50 individuals were in good agreement. Interestingly, the required computational time of the approach only took a few seconds without convergence issues, unlike the traditional approach which required considerably more time to run (7 and 10 h, respectively). The factor analytic approach took approximately 5-10 min. Our approach can easily handle missing data and can be used with all available linear mixed effect model softwares as it does not require any specific implementation. The approach can help to mitigate difficulties with multitrait genetic analysis in both breeding and wild populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":12468,"journal":{"name":"G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142462209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A previous study found that wild-type worms exposed to the nicotinic agonist dimethylphenylpiperazinium (DMPP) exhibited larval arrest and molting-associated defects, which were suppressed by inhibition of catp-1. By testing a spectrum catp-1 alleles, we found that resistance to DMPP toxicity and the suppression of nekl defects did not strongly correlate, suggesting key differences in the mechanism of catp-1-mediated suppression. Through whole genome sequencing of additional nekl-2; nekl-3 suppressor strains, we identified two additional coding-altering mutations in catp-1. However, neither mutation, when introduced into nekl-2; nekl-3 mutants using CRISPR, was sufficient to elicit robust suppression of molting defects, suggesting the involvement of other loci. Endogenously tagged CATP-1 was primarily expressed in epidermal cells within punctate structures located near the apical plasma membrane, consistent with a role in regulating cellular processes within the epidermis. Based on previous studies, we tested the hypothesis that catp-1 inhibition induces entry into the pre-dauer L2d stage, potentially accounting for the ability of catp-1 mutants to suppress nekl molting defects. However, we found no evidence that loss of catp-1 leads to entry into L2d.

Consistent with our previous work, defective peroxisomal import function upregulates pro-inflammatory cytokine upd3 in glial cells, while glia-specific overexpression of upd3 induces axonal swelling.
