Réseaux de régulation génétique : dynamique d'un gène autorégulé et modélisation de l'horloge circadienne de l'algue unicellulaire Ostreococcus tauri / Gene regulatory networks : dynamics of a self-repressed gene and modeling of the circadian clock of the unicellular alga Ostreococcus tauri

Les réseaux génétiques, constitués de gènes qui interagissent entre eux par l'intermédiaire de protéines régulatrices modulant leurs activités, sont des systèmes non linéaires qui présentent une variété de comportements dynamiques tels que la multistabilité ou les oscillations. Le développement des approches systémiques en biologie a permis l'identification de modules génétiques dont le comportement est quantitativement modélisable de sorte que leur fonction et leur structure puissent être étudiées et comprises. Notre expérience des systèmes non linéaires, ainsi que de la modélisation de systèmes expérimentaux, nous a conduit à l'étude de réseaux minimaux ayant la capacité d'osciller.Tout d'abord, nous avons revisité la dynamique d'un gène réprimé par sa propre protéine dans le cas où le taux de transcription ne s'adapte pas instantanément à la concentration en protéine mais est une variable dynamique. En effet, de nouvelles techniques de détection in vivo de l'ARN ont mis en évidence les salves de transcription d'un gène dans une cellule vivante. Nous avons obtenu un critère analytique pour l'apparition des oscillations entretenues et avons trouvé qu'elles nécessitent des mécanismes de dégradation moins non linéaires que pour une régulation infiniment rapide. Les prédictions obtenues par une approche déterministe ont été confirmées par des simulations stochastiques.Nous avons ensuite étudié un modèle mathématique minimal d'oscillateur circadien qui ajuste de façon surprenante les profils d'expression de deux gènes centraux de l'horloge de l'algue verte microscopique Ostreococcus tauri, TOC1 et CCA1. Outre cet accord entre théorie et expérience, nous avons constaté que le meilleur ajustement des données d'expression enregistrées en alternance jour/nuit est obtenu lorsqu'aucun paramètre du modèle ne dépend de l'intensité lumineuse, comme si l'oscillateur n'était pas sensible au cycle jour/nuit. Nous avons montré que ce phénomène contre-intuitif est en fait compatible avec un couplage à la lumière restreint à une fenêtre temporelle courte et judicieusement placée dans la journée. Cela confère à cette horloge circadienne une grande robustesse, de telle sorte que l'oscillateur est à la fois sensible à un éventuel déphasage nécessitant une remise à l'heure, et insensible aux fluctuations de l'intensité de la lumière du jour. / Networks of genes interacting via regulatory proteins modulating their activities are highly nonlinear systems wich display a variety of dynamical behaviour, such multistability or oscillations. The development of systemic approaches in biology has put emphasis on identifying genetic modules whose behavior can be modeled quantitatively so that their function and structure can be studied and understood. Our experience in nonlinear systems and modeling of experimental systems has led us to study minimal oscillating networks. First, we have revisited the dynamics of a gene repressed by its own protein in the case where the transcription rate does not adapt instantaneously to protein concentration but is a dynamical variable. Indeed, burst-like gene transcription has been monitored with new in vivo technique for tracking single-RNA molecule. We have derived analytical criteria for the appearance of sustained oscillations and found that they require degradation mechanisms much less nonlinear than for infinitely fast regulation. Deterministic predictions are confirmed by stochastic simulations of this minimal genetic oscillator. Secondly, we have studied a minimal mathematical model of a circadian oscillator, wich is in surprisingly good agreement with expression profiles of two central clock genes TOC1 and CCA1 of the microscopic green alga Ostreococcus tauri. We not only found that this two-gene transcriptional loop model can reproduce almost perfectly transcript and protein profiles but observed that excellent adjustment of data recorded under light/dark alternation is obtained when no model parameter depends on light intensity. Furthermore, we have shown that this paradoxical behaviour is in fact compatible with a coupling to light that is confined to short temporal windows and judiciously scheduled during the day. This circadian clock is robust in that the oscillator is both sensitive to phase shifts when resetting is required and insensitive to daylight fluctuations.

Evolutionary consequences of viral resistance in the marine picoeukaryote Ostreococcus tauri

Heath, Sarah E. January 2018 (has links)
In marine environments, eukaryotic marine microalgae coexist with the viruses that infect them. Marine microalgae are the main primary producers in the oceans and are at the base of the marine food web. Viruses play important roles in top-down control of algae populations, cycling of organic matter, and as evolutionary drivers of their hosts. Algae must adapt in response to the strong selection pressure that viruses impose for resistance to infection. In addition to biotic selection pressures such as viral infections, algae must also adapt to their abiotic environment. Global climate change is affecting temperature, salinity, pH, light and nutrient concentrations in the oceans, particularly in surface waters, where microalgae live. Currently, little is known about how consistent the effects of viruses on their hosts are, whether the cost of host resistance varies across environments, and whether there is a trade-off between maintaining resistance to viruses and adapting to other environmental changes. The marine picoeukaryote Ostreococcus tauri is abundant in Mediterranean lagoons, where it experiences large fluctuations in environmental conditions and co-occurs with lytic viruses (Ostreococcus tauri viruses – OtVs). Viral infection causes lysis of susceptible (S) cells, however a small proportion of cells are resistant (R) and avoid lysis. Some resistant O. tauri populations can coexist with infectious viruses, and it has been proposed that these viruses are produced by a minority of susceptible cells within a mainly resistant population. These populations are referred to as resistant producers (RP). Virus production in RP populations is unstable and eventually they shift to R populations. I used O. tauri and one of its viruses, OtV5, as a model system to investigate whether cells that are susceptible or resistant to virus infection adapt to environmental change differently and whether there is a cost of being resistant. For the first time, I evolved susceptible and resistant hosts of a marine alga separately under a range of environments and directly compared their plastic and evolved responses. I showed that resistant populations of O. tauri maintained their resistance for more than 200 generations in the absence of viruses across all environments, indicating that the resistance mechanism is difficult to reverse. Furthermore, I did not detect a cost of being resistant, as measured by population growth rate and competitive ability. Virus production in RP populations stopped in all environments and all populations became R. In addition, I found that virus production in RP O. tauri populations can fluctuate before completely ceasing, and that phosphate affected the length of time it took for virus production to stop. These results, combined with mathematical modelling of O. tauri infection dynamics, provide support for the prediction that RP populations consist of a mixed population of susceptible and resistant cells. By examining multiple environments and resistance types, we can better understand first, how microalgae populations adapt to environmental change and second, the ecological and evolutionary consequences of maintaining resistance to viruses in common marine picoeukaryotes.

Caractérisation moléculaire de la transmission lumineuse vers l'horloge circadienne de la microalgue Ostreococcus tauri / Molecular characterization of light input to the circadian clock of the microalga Ostrococcus tauri

Djouani Tahri, El-batoul 21 November 2011 (has links)
Les microalgues du phytoplancton sont exposées à des variations fréquentes et rapides de la qualité et de l'intensité spectrale en milieu marin. On peut donc supposer qu'il existe des mécanismes de photoperception spécifiques aux microalgues, différents de ceux identifiés chez les organismes terrestres. L'importance de l'horloge circadienne dans la transmission de l'information lumineuse et notamment la photopériode a largement été caractérisée chez plusieurs organismes modèles terrestres. Le principal objectif de ma thèse était d'étudier les régulations des gènes de l'horloge en réponse à la lumière, chez la microalgue Ostreococcus tauri. Le développement récent des techniques de génomique fonctionnelle chez cette microalgue eucaryote l'a promue comme un nouvel organisme modèle pour l'étude de mécanismes complexes tels que horloge circadienne. Mon étude s'est focalisée sur la caractérisation d'une voie de signalisation de type système à deux composants susceptible de transmettre le signal lumineux vers l'oscillateur central de l'horloge. J'ai étudié les régulations des principaux acteurs de l'horloge d'Ostreococcus par la lumière, et en particulier celles du gène TOC1. J'ai aussi caractérisé la protéine LOV-HK, un nouveau type de photorécepteur à la lumière bleue chez les eucaryotes, dont l'activité est requise pour le bon fonctionnement de l'horloge d'Ostreococcus. L'importance des régulations transcriptionnelles de TOC1 et de LOV-HK, ainsi que leurs fonctions dans l'oscillateur central ont été abordées par l'utilisation d'un promoteur inductible. Enfin, j'ai montré que LOV-HK et plus globalement l'horloge régulent la croissance cellulaire et la biomasse, démontrant leur rôle central dans le contrôle de la physiologie d'Ostreococcus tauri. / Light quality and intensity change frequently in the water column. Therefore marine microalgae are exposed to large changes in light spectrum. Photoperception mechanisms in microalgae are expected to differ from those of land plants since the marine environment has unique properties of light transmission. The focus of my PhD project concerns two mains topics, circadian clock regulation and photoperception in the microalga Ostreococcus tauri. In recent years, O. tauri has emerged as a promising model organism using functional genomics approaches to study complex processes such as the circadian clock regulations. My study was focused on the involvement of a two components system in light transmission to the circadian clock of Ostreococcus. I have studied the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of the core clock component TOC1. I have also characterized a novel eukaryotic blue light photoreceptor called LOV-HK, which regulates circadian clock function in Ostreococcus. Using an inducible promoter system to modulate the levels of TOC1 and LOV-HK, I have analyzed the importance of their transcriptional regulations in the clock. Finally, I have shown that LOV-HK and more generally the circadian clock, regulates cell growth and biomass in Ostreococcus tauri.
