Mechanism of homology search expansion during recombinational DNA break repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Mol Cell 2024; 84:3237-3253.e6.

Abstract
Homology search is a central step of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR). How it operates in cells remains elusive. We developed a Hi-C-based methodology to map single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) contacts genome-wide in S. cerevisiae, which revealed two main homology search phases. Initial search conducted by short Rad51-ssDNA nucleoprotein filaments (NPFs) is confined in cis by cohesin-mediated chromatin loop folding. Progressive growth of stiff NPFs enables exploration of distant genomic sites. Long-range resection drives this transition from local to genome-wide search by increasing the probability of assembling extensive NPFs. DSB end-tethering promotes coordinated search by opposite NPFs. Finally, an autonomous genetic element on chromosome III engages the NPF, which stimulates homology search in its vicinity. This work reveals the mechanism of the progressive expansion of homology search that is orchestrated by chromatin organizers, long-range resection, end-tethering, and specialized genetic elements and that exploits the stiff NPF structure conferred by Rad51 oligomerization.

Abstract
Protein folding both promotes and constrains adaptive evolution. We uncover this surprising duality in the role of the protein-folding chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) in maintaining the integrity of yeast metabolism amid proteotoxic stressors within industrial domestication niches. Ethanol disrupts critical Hsp90-dependent metabolic pathways and exerts strong selective pressure for redundant duplications of key genes within these pathways, yielding the classical genomic signatures of beer and bread domestication. This work demonstrates a mechanism of adaptive canalization in an ecology of major economic importance and highlights Hsp90-dependent variation as an important source of phantom heritability in complex traits.

Functional mapping of N-terminal residues in the yeast proteome uncovers novel determinants for mitochondrial protein import. PLoS Genet 2023; 19:e1010848.

Abstract
N-terminal ends of polypeptides are critical for the selective co-translational recruitment of N-terminal modification enzymes. However, it is unknown whether specific N-terminal signatures differentially regulate protein fate according to their cellular functions. In this work, we developed an in-silico approach to detect functional preferences in cellular N-terminomes, and identified in S. cerevisiae more than 200 Gene Ontology terms with specific N-terminal signatures. In particular, we discovered that Mitochondrial Targeting Sequences (MTS) show a strong and specific over-representation at position 2 of hydrophobic residues known to define potential substrates of the N-terminal acetyltransferase NatC. We validated mitochondrial precursors as co-translational targets of NatC by selective purification of translating ribosomes, and found that their N-terminal signature is conserved in Saccharomycotina yeasts. Finally, systematic mutagenesis of the position 2 in a prototypal yeast mitochondrial protein confirmed its critical role in mitochondrial protein import. Our work highlights the hydrophobicity of MTS N-terminal residues and their targeting by NatC as important features for the definition of the mitochondrial proteome, providing a molecular explanation for mitochondrial defects observed in yeast or human NatC-depleted cells. Functional mapping of N-terminal residues thus has the potential to support the discovery of novel mechanisms of protein regulation or targeting.

Abstract
The yeast S. cerevisiae is a unique genetic object for which a wide range of relatively simple, inexpensive, and non-time-consuming methods have been developed that allow the performing of a wide variety of genome modifications. Among the latter, one can mention point mutations, disruptions and deletions of particular genes and regions of chromosomes, insertion of cassettes for the expression of heterologous genes, targeted chromosomal rearrangements such as translocations and inversions, directed changes in the karyotype (loss or duplication of particular chromosomes, changes in the level of ploidy), mating-type changes, etc. Classical yeast genome manipulations have been advanced with CRISPR/Cas9 technology in recent years that allow for the generation of multiple simultaneous changes in the yeast genome. In this review we discuss practical applications of both the classical yeast genome modification methods as well as CRISPR/Cas9 technology. In addition, we review methods for ploidy changes, including aneuploid generation, methods for mating type switching and directed DSB. Combined with a description of useful selective markers and transformation techniques, this work represents a nearly complete guide to yeast genome modification.

Abstract
Optimizing the production of recombinant proteins is a problem of major industrial and pharmaceutical importance. Secretion of the protein by the host cell considerably simplifies downstream purification processes. However, for many proteins, this is also the limiting production step. Current solutions involve extensive engineering of the chassis cell to facilitate protein trafficking and limit protein degradation triggered by excessive secretion-associated stress. Here, we propose instead a regulation-based strategy in which induction is dynamically adjusted to an optimal strength based on the current stress level of the cells. Using a small collection of hard-to-secrete proteins, a bioreactor-based platform with automated cytometry measurements, and a systematic assay to quantify secreted protein levels, we demonstrate that the secretion sweet spot is indicated by the appearance of a subpopulation of cells that accumulate high amounts of proteins, decrease growth, and face significant stress, that is, experience a secretion burnout. In these cells, adaptations capabilities are overwhelmed by a too strong production. Using these notions, we show for a single-chain antibody variable fragment that secretion levels can be improved by 70% by dynamically keeping the cell population at optimal stress levels using real-time closed-loop control.
