Por outro lado, gostaria de fazer também aqui um especial agradecimento ao meu orientador Dr. Paulo Dias, que me guiou ao longo deste trabalho, durante o último ano e meio, e me ajudou em todas as fases da sua realização de forma incansável, desde o desenvolvimento de metodologias até á escrita e elaboração do documento. Devo ainda salientar que sem a sua exigência e perseverança muito provavelmente não teria adquirido a enorme quantidade de conhecimentos adquiri, a nível informático, biológico e evolutivo. O meu trabalho bioinformático foi realizado dentro grupo BSRG, uma unidade do Instituto de Bioengenharia e Biociências (IBB) que pertence ao Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) e agregado á Universidade de Lisboa. A este grupo gostaria de agradecer todo suporte técnico que me deram e todo o bom ambiente que proporcionaram. Passando para os agradecimentos mais pessoais e personalizados, antes de mais, é importante referir que gostaria de poder ter presente, na minha vida, todas as pessoas que me ajudaram ao longo desta fase da minha vida académica. No entanto isso não é possível. Isto fez-me refletir sobre todas as prioridades que devemos ter durante a nossa existência, e todo o valor que devemos dar a quem mais nos apoia. Aos meus Avós paternos, que faleceram ambos durante o decorrer deste Mestrado e que sempre me deram um apoio incondicional e irrepreensível, gostaria de dedicar todo o trabalho árduo e força de vontade avassaladora que a realização do mestrado e desta tese envolveu. Em respeito a eles e porque a minha língua materna é a portuguesa, escrevo estes agradecimentos em português. Gostaria de agradecer também aos meus Pais, e Irmão, pelas palavras de ânimo e carinho que me fizeram vencer todos os obstáculos, pelas condições favoráveis que me proporcionaram e tornaram possível o vencer de mais uma batalha. Uma parte deste trabalho é, sem dúvida, uma conquista desta minha especial família. Gostaria ainda de agradecer aos meus fiéis amigos Filipe Tente, João Nuno, Pedro Parente, João Pereira que apesar de algumas vezes afastados, muitas vezes foram os mais próximos. Ao meu grande amigo Gonçalo Curveira Santos a oportunidade que me deu de viver com ele em Lisboa, e por todo o apoio, tanto a nível pessoal como profissional. Gonçalo tu vais ser uma das mentes brilhantes deste país, continua a lutar. Aos meus amigos do IST, um especial agradecimento ao Carlos Branco, Pedro Santos, Miguel Gomes, Simion Petru e Rafael Crisóstomo entre outros (sabem quem são) por toda a ajuda informática, amizade e momentos de lazer que me fizeram manter a sanidade mental (ou não). Por fim, e porque o melhor vem sempre no final, quero agradecer á minha companheira de vida Ana Ferreira, por todo apoio científico/pessoal, incentivo extraordinário, e alegrias constantes que garantiram e vão garantir sempre que eu dê o melhor de mim apesar do cansaço e dos dias mais difíceis. Esta tese é tanto minha quanto tua. I Abstract The Saccharomyces cerevisiae 12-spanner drug: H+ antiporters (DHA1) and 14- spanner drug: H+ antiporters (DHA2) of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) are involved in Multidrug/Multixenobiotic resistance (MDR/MXR) phenomenon. The aim of the present work is to reconstruct and characterize the evolution of the DHA1 genes encoded in 33 hemiascomycetes strains classified in the Saccharomycetaceae taxonomic family, (corresponding to a total of 29 yeast species). The DHA1 and DAG (DHA2, ARN, GEX) proteins encoded in the genomes of 61 additional strains, spanning more than 15 hemiascomycetous taxonomic families, were also identified and briefly analysed. The constraining and traversing of a network representing the blastp pairwise similarity relationships established between more than one million hemiascomycetous translated ORFs allowed the identification of 1382 bona fide full-size DHA1 transporters (after correction of problematic translated ORFs). The evolutionary history of the DHA1 genes encoded in the genome sequences of 33 Saccharomycetaceae strains was reconstructed by combining phylogenetic and gene neighbourhood approaches. Twenty-six DHA1 phylogenetic clusters were identified and nine DHA1 gene lineages reported in previous published studies were revised and extended. State-of-the-art methodologies on phylogeny, comparative genomics and protein evolution were used to advance the existing knowledge on the still poorly biochemically characterized DHA1 transporters, allowing obtaining new insights on how the functional diversification of these proteins is related with ancestral genomic events, such as the Whole Genome Duplication (WGD), local gene duplications and losses, Horizontal Gene Transfers (HGT) between yeast species, chromosomal rearrangements, and other genome reshaping phenomena. Keywords: DHA1, DAG, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Multidrug resistance, Saccharomycetaceae, Whole Genome Duplication. II Resumo Os genes do organismo Saccharomyces cerevisiae, da família 1(DHA1) e família 2(DHA2) de antiportadores de drogas, e da superfamília de facilitadores, estão envolvidos na resistência a múltiplas drogas/xenobióticos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi reconstruir e caracterizar a evolução dos genes DHA1, codificados no genoma de 33 estirpes de Hemiascomycetos classificadas na família taxonómica Saccharomycetaceae (correspondendo ao total de 29 espécies). Paralelamente, foram identificadas e analisadas, de forma breve, as proteínas DHA1 e DAG codificadas no genoma de 61 estirpes adicionais que estão classificadas em mais de 15 famílias de Hemiascomycetos. A constrição e atravessamento de uma rede de similaridade de pares blastp entre mais de um milhão de ORF’s em Hemiascomycetos, permitiu identificar 1382 transportadores DHA1 não fragmentados (após a correção das ORF’s problemáticas). Assim, foi reconstruída a historia evolutiva dos genes DHA1, codificados no genoma das 33 estirpes Saccharomycetaceae, com recurso á combinação de técnicas de filogenia e de vizinhança de genes. Isto permitiu identificar 26 grupos filogenéticos de genes DHA1, e fazer uma revisão e ampliação de 9 linhagens de genes DHA1 publicadas em estudos anteriores. As metodologias do estado de arte sobre filogenia, genómica comparativa, evolução proteica foram utilizadas para expandir o conhecimento acerca destes transportadores DHA1, ainda pouco caracterizados bioquimicamente, permitindo obter novas conclusões sobre o envolvimento da diversificação funcional destas proteínas com os eventos genómicos ancestrais , da duplicação total do genoma ,duplicações locais e perdas de genes, transferências horizontais de genes entre espécies de leveduras, rearranjos cromossômicos, e outros fenômenos de remodelação genómica.

  • Variable Absorption of Mutational Trends by Prion-Forming Domains During Saccharomycetes Evolution
    Variable absorption of mutational trends by prion-forming domains during Saccharomycetes evolution Paul M. Harrison Department of Biology, McGill University, Monteal, Quebec, Canada ABSTRACT Prions are self-propagating alternative states of protein domains. They are linked to both diseases and functional protein roles in eukaryotes. Prion-forming domains in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are typically domains with high intrinsic protein disorder (i.e., that remain unfolded in the cell during at least some part of their functioning), that are converted to self-replicating amyloid forms. S. cerevisiae is a member of the fungal class Saccharomycetes, during the evolution of which a large population of prion-like domains has appeared. It is still unclear what principles might govern the molecular evolution of prion-forming domains, and intrinsically disordered domains generally. Here, it is discovered that in a set of such prion-forming domains some evolve in the fungal class Saccharomycetes in such a way as to absorb general mutation biases across millions of years, whereas others do not, indicating a spectrum of selection pressures on composition and sequence. Thus, if the bias-absorbing prion formers are conserving a prion-forming capability, then this capability is not interfered with by the absorption of bias changes over the duration of evolutionary epochs. Evidence is discovered for selective constraint against the occurrence of lysine residues (which likely disrupt prion formation) in S. cerevisiae prion-forming domains as they evolve across Saccharomycetes. These results provide a case study of the absorption of mutational trends by compositionally biased domains, and suggest methodology for assessing selection pressures on the composition of intrinsically disordered regions.

Louis‡,§ *Department Genomes and Genetics, Institut Pasteur, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique UMR3525, 75724-CEDEX15 Paris, France, †University Pierre and Marie Curie UFR927, 75005 Paris, France, ‡Centre for Genetic Architecture of Complex Traits, and xDepartment of Genetics, University of Leicester, LE1 7RH, United Kingdom ORCID ID: 0000-0003-1157-3608 (E.J.L.) ABSTRACT Considerable progress in our understanding of yeast genomes and their evolution has been made over the last decade with the sequencing, analysis, and comparisons of numerous species, strains, or isolates of diverse origins. The role played by yeasts in natural environments as well as in artificial manufactures, combined with the importance of some species as model experimental systems sustained this effort. At the same time, their enormous evolutionary diversity (there are yeast species in every subphylum of Dikarya) sparked curiosity but necessitated further efforts to obtain appropriate reference genomes. Today, yeast genomes have been very informative about basic mechanisms of evolution, speciation, hybridization, domestication, as well as about the molecular machineries underlying them. They are also irreplaceable to investigate in detail the complex relationship between genotypes and phenotypes with both theoretical and practical implications. This review examines these questions at two distinct levels offered by the broad evolutionary range of yeasts: inside the best-studied Saccharomyces species complex, and across the entire and diversified subphylum of Saccharomycotina. While obviously revealing evolutionary histories at different scales, data converge to a remarkably coherent picture in which one can estimate the relative importance of intrinsic genome dynamics, including gene birth and loss, vs.

The genetic bases for these traits are mostly unknown, preventing their addition or removal in a chassis organism for metabolic engineering. To help understand the molecular evolution of these traits in yeasts, we created Analyzing Yeasts by Reconstructing Ancestry of Homologs (AYbRAH), an open-source database of predicted and manually curated ortholog groups for 33 diverse fungi and yeasts in Dikarya, spanning 600 million years of evolution. OrthoMCL and OrthoDB were used to cluster protein sequence into ortholog and homolog groups, respectively; MAFFT and PhyML were used to reconstruct the phylogeny of all homolog groups. Ortholog assignments for enzymes and small metabolite transporters were compared to their phylogenetic reconstruction, and curated to resolve any discrepancies. Information on homolog and ortholog groups can be viewed in the AYbRAH web portal (https://kcorreia.github. io/aybrah/) to review ortholog groups, predictions for mitochondrial localization and transmembrane domains, literature references, and phylogenetic reconstructions.

This ability of the vast majority of yeasts has long been neglected since the standardization of the methodology around 1950, wherein fructose was excluded from the standard set of physiological properties for characterizing yeast species, despite the ubiquitous presence of fructose in the natural environment. In this study, we examined 388 strains of yeast, mainly belonging to the Saccharomycetes (Saccharomycotina, Ascomycota), to determine whether they can assimilate/ferment D-fructose. Conventional methods, using liquid medium containing Citation: Endoh, R.; Horiyama, M.; yeast nitrogen base +0.5% (w/v) of D-fructose solution for assimilation and yeast extract-peptone Ohkuma, M.

Published by the Genetics Society of America. Abstract Understanding the phylogenetic relationships among the yeasts of the subphylum Saccharomycotina is a prerequisite for understanding the evolution of their metabolisms and ecological lifestyles. In the last two decades, the use of rDNA and multi-locus data sets has greatly advanced our understanding of the yeast phylogeny, but many deep relationships remain unsupported. In contrast, phylogenomic analyses have involved relatively few taxa and lineages that were often selected with limited considerations for covering the breadth of yeast biodiversity. Here we used genome sequence data from 86 publicly available yeast genomes representing 9 of the 11 known major lineages and 10 non-yeast fungal outgroups to generate a 1,233-gene, 96-taxon data matrix.

Mycosphere 8(9), 1457–1555, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/9/10 Abstract Incorporating asexual genera in a natural classification system and proposing one name for pleomorphic genera are important topics in the current era of mycology. Recently, several polyphyletic genera have been restricted to a single family, linked with a single sexual morph or spilt into several unrelated genera. Thus, updating existing data bases and check lists is essential to stay abreast of these recent advanes. In this paper, we update the existing outline of asexual genera and provide taxonomic notes for asexual genera which have been introduced since 2012. Approximately, 320 genera have been reported or linked with a sexual morph, but most genera lack sexual morphs.
