Characterization of marine diatom-infecting virus promoters in the model diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum
Viruses are considered key players in phytoplankton population control in oceans. However, mechanisms that control viral gene expression in prominent microalgae such as diatoms remain largely unknown. In this study, potential promoter regions isolated from several marine diatom-infecting viruses (DIVs) were linked to the egfp reporter gene and transformed into the Pennales diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. We analysed their activity in cells grown under different conditions. Compared to diatom endogenous promoters, novel DIV promoter (ClP1) mediated a significantly higher degree of reporter transcription and translation. Stable expression levels were observed in transformants grown under both light and dark conditions, and high levels of expression were reported in cells in the stationary phase compared to the exponential phase of growth. Conserved motifs in the sequence of DIV promoters were also found. These results allow the identification of novel regulatory regions that drive DIV gene expression and further examinations of the mechanisms that control virus-mediated bloom control in diatoms. Moreover, the identified ClP1 promoter can serve as a novel tool for metabolic engineering of diatoms. This is the first report describing a promoter of DIVs that may be of use in basic and applied diatom research
Remodeling of the Vertebral Body in Hereditary Lordoscoliotic Rabbits Revealed by In Situ Hybridization
The etiology of human idiopathic scoliosis remains still unknown, although several etiologic
factors and many animal models of scoliosis have been reported. Kin previously reported
radiological and histological findings of spinal deformities in the Hereditary Lordoscoliotic Rabbit
(LSR), which develops thoracic lordosis or lordoscoliosis during growth. We investigated biological
activities of bone cells of the LSR vertebrae by in situ hybridization. Digoxigenin labeled in situ
hybridization probes of mRNA of osteopontin, type I collagen and bone morphogenetic protein
(BMP)-2 were prepared. Hybridization was carried out on the sagittal section of lordotic or
lordoscoliotic thoracic vertebra in the LSR. In the apical vertebral body and spinous process of the
lordotic thoracic spine of LSR during developmental age, stronger positive signals for type I collagen
and BMP-2 mRNA were detected in osteoblasts in the endosteum of the ventral portion than those
in the dorsal portion of the vertebra, which indicates osteogenesis. In the apical vertebral body of
the lordotic thoracic spine, positive signals for osteopontin mRNA were detected in osteoclasts of
the Howship’s lacunae and osteocytes around these pits in dorsal endosteal portion, which indicates
bone resorption. No such signals were detected in the ventral endosteal portion of the same
vertebral body. The vertebral bones of the LSR showed a specific mode of remodeling response to
the force producing lordosis.departmental bulletin pape
