Investigating the consequences of asymmetric endoplasmic reticulum inheritance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae under stress using a combination of single cell measurements and mathematical modelling.
Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology 2018 March
Adaptation allows organisms to maintain a constant internal environment, which is optimised for growth. The unfolded protein response (UPR) is an example of a feedback loop that maintains endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis, and is characteristic of how adaptation is often mediated by transcriptional networks. The more recent discovery of asymmetric division in maintaining ER homeostasis, however, is an example of how alternative non-transcriptional pathways can exist, but are overlooked by gold standard transcriptomic or proteomic population-based assays. In this study, we have used a combination of fluorescent reporters, flow cytometry and mathematical modelling to explore the relative roles of asymmetric cell division and the UPR in maintaining ER homeostasis. Under low ER stress, asymmetric division leaves daughter cells with an ER deficiency, necessitating activation of the UPR and prolonged cell cycle during which they can recover ER functionality before growth. Mathematical analysis of and simulation results from our mathematical model reinforce the experimental observations that low ER stress primarily impacts the growth rate of the daughter cells. These results demonstrate the interplay between homeostatic pathways and the importance of exploring sub-population dynamics to understand population adaptation to quantitatively different stresses.
