Figure Lengend Snippet: a , b , cbp-1 RNAi attenuates UPR mt activation induced by cco-1 (a) or mrps-5 (b) knockdown in hsp-6p::gfp worms. For RNAi treatment, RNAi targeting cco-1 or mrps-5 occupies 40%, cbp-1 RNAi occupies 25%, atfs-1 RNAi occupies 60%, control RNAi (ev) was used to supply to a final 100% of RNAi for all conditions. DIC, differential interference contrast image. c , CBP/p300 small-molecule inhibitors A-485 and PF-CBP1 attenuate UPR mt activation in worms. hsp-6p::gfp worms were fed with control or the UPR mt -inducing cco-1 (40%) RNAi, in combination with A-485 (10 μM) or PF-CBP1 (80 μM) treatment. d , e , cbp-1 RNAi abolishes UPR mt activation induced by spg-7 , timm-23 , tomm-40 , cts-1 or dlst-1 RNAi (d), and by antimycin A (2.5 μM) or doxycycline (Dox) (30 μg/ml) (e), in hsp-6p::gfp worms. The atfs-1 RNAi was used as a positive control. RNAi targeting tomm-40 , cts-1 or dlst-1 occupies 40%, cbp-1 RNAi occupies 25%, atfs-1 RNAi occupies 60%. f , Volcano plots showing the effects on gene expression of cco-1 RNAi compared to control RNAi (ev) (left), and of cbp-1 (middle) or atfs-1 (right) knockdown in a cco-1 RNAi background. FC, fold change. Genes dependent on both CBP-1 and ATFS-1 for induction after cco-1 RNAi are highlighted in red (common). Genes dependent on CBP-1, but not ATFS-1, for induction are in blue (CBP-1 only). Genes dependent on ATFS-1, but not CBP-1, for induction are highlighted in yellow (ATFS-1 only). g , Venn diagram of CBP-1-dependent UPR mt genes, that are in common with ATFS-1-dependent UPR mt genes in response to cco-1 RNAi, according to the RNA-seq data. h , i , Functional clustering of the 259 (h) and 247 (i) UPR mt genes as indicated in (g). j . Heat-map of the representative UPR mt genes dependent on CBP-1 for induction during cco-1 knockdown. The color-coded heat-map represents gene expression differences in log 2 FC relatively to control RNAi (ev) condition. Genes dependent on both CBP-1 and ATFS-1 are highlighted in red. Genes dependent on CBP-1, but not ATFS-1, are highlighted in blue. Scale bars, 0.3 mm.
Article Snippet: For transfection, plasmids expressing human full-length WT-p300 (Cat. 89094, addgene), and the p300 acetyltransferase activity-defective mutant (Cat. 89095, addgene) , were purchased from addgene and transfected with the Lipofectamine 3000 Reagent (Cat. L3000015, ThermoFisher).
