Abstract
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used in food and non-food industries. During industrial fermentation yeast strains are exposed to fluctuations in oxygen concentration, osmotic pressure, pH, ethanol concentration, nutrient availability and temperature. Fermentation performance depends on the ability of the yeast strains to adapt to these changes. Suboptimal conditions trigger responses to the external stimuli to allow homeostasis to be maintained. Stress-specific signalling pathways are activated to coordinate changes in transcription, translation, protein function, and metabolic fluxes while a transient arrest of growth and cell cycle progression occur. cAMP-PKA, HOG-MAPK and CWI signalling pathways are turned on during stress response. Comprehension of the mechanisms involved in the responses and in the adaptation to these stresses during fermentation is key to improving this industrial process. The scope of this review is to outline the advancement of knowledge about the cAMP-PKA signalling and the crosstalk of this pathway with the CWI and HOG-MAPK cascades in response to the environmental challenges heat and hyperosmotic stress.

Abstract
The intracellular environment is packed with macromolecules of mesoscale size, and this crowded milieu significantly influences cell physiology. When exposed to stress, mRNAs released after translational arrest condense with RNA binding proteins, resulting in the formation of membraneless RNA protein (RNP) condensates known as processing bodies (P-bodies) and stress granules (SGs). However, the impact of the assembly of these condensates on the biophysical properties of the crowded cytoplasmic environment remains unclear. Here, we find that upon exposure to stress, polysome collapse and condensation of mRNAs increases mesoscale particle diffusivity in the cytoplasm. Increased mesoscale diffusivity is required for the efficient formation of Q-bodies, membraneless organelles that coordinate degradation of misfolded peptides that accumulate during stress. Additionally, we demonstrate that polysome collapse and stress granule formation has a similar effect in mammalian cells, fluidizing the cytoplasm at the mesoscale. We find that synthetic, light-induced RNA condensation is sufficient to fluidize the cytoplasm, demonstrating a causal effect of RNA condensation. Together, our work reveals a new functional role for stress-induced translation inhibition and formation of RNP condensates in modulating the physical properties of the cytoplasm to effectively respond to stressful conditions.

Abstract
Quiescence, the temporary and reversible arrest of cell growth, is a fundamental biological process. However, the lack of standardization in terms of reporting the experimental details of quiescent cells and populations can cause confusion and hinder knowledge transfer. We employ the systematic review methodology to comprehensively analyze the diversity of approaches used to study the quiescent state, focusing on all published research addressing the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We group research articles into those that consider all cells comprising the stationary-phase (SP) population as quiescent and those that recognize heterogeneity within the SP by distinguishing phenotypically distinct subpopulations. Furthermore, we investigate the chronological age of the quiescent populations under study and the methods used to induce the quiescent state, such as gradual starvation or abrupt environmental change. We also assess whether the strains used in research are prototrophic or auxotrophic. By combining the above features, we identify 48 possible experimental setups that can be used to study quiescence, which can be misleading when drawing general conclusions. We therefore summarize our review by proposing guidelines and recommendations pertaining to the information included in research articles. We believe that more rigorous reporting on the features of quiescent populations will facilitate knowledge transfer within and between disciplines, thereby stimulating valuable scientific discussion.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells decide in late G1 phase of the cell cycle whether to commit to another round of division. This point of cell cycle commitment is termed "Restriction Point" in mammals and "Start" in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. At Start, yeast cells integrate multiple signals such as pheromones and nutrients, and will not pass Start if nutrients are lacking. However, how cells respond to nutrient depletion after the Start decision remains poorly understood. Here, we analyze how post-Start cells respond to nutrient depletion, by monitoring Whi5, the cell cycle inhibitor whose export from the nucleus determines Start. Surprisingly, we find that cells that have passed Start can re-import Whi5 into the nucleus. In these cells, the positive feedback loop activating G1/S transcription is interrupted, and the Whi5 repressor re-binds DNA. Cells which re-import Whi5 become again sensitive to mating pheromone, like pre-Start cells, and CDK activation can occur a second time upon replenishment of nutrients. These results demonstrate that upon starvation, the commitment decision at Start can be reversed. We therefore propose that cell cycle commitment in yeast is a multi-step process, similar to what has been suggested for mammalian cells.

Abstract
Macromolecular crowding is an important parameter that impacts multiple biological processes. Passive microrheology using single particle tracking is a powerful means of studying macromolecular crowding. Here we monitored the diffusivity of self-assembling fluorescent nanoparticles (μNS) in response to acute glucose starvation. mRNP diffusivity was reduced upon glucose starvation as previously reported. In contrast, we observed increased diffusivity of μNS particles. Our results suggest that, upon glucose starvation, mRNP granule diffusivity may be reduced due to changes in physical interactions, while global crowding in the cytoplasm may be reduced.

Abstract
Stem cells cycle between periods of quiescence and proliferation to promote tissue health. In Drosophila ovaries, quiescence to proliferation transitions of follicle stem cells (FSCs) are exquisitely feeding-dependent. Here, we demonstrate feeding-dependent induction of follicle cell differentiation markers, eyes absent (Eya) and castor (Cas) in FSCs, a patterning process that does not depend on proliferation induction. Instead, FSCs extend micron-scale cytoplasmic projections that dictate Eya-Cas patterning. We identify still life and sickie as necessary and sufficient for FSC projection growth and Eya-Cas induction. Our results suggest that sequential, interdependent events establish long-term differentiation patterns in follicle cell precursors, independently of FSC proliferation induction.

Transcriptomic Analysis Revealed the Differences in Lipid Accumulation between Spores and Mycelia of Mucor circinelloides WJ11 under Solid–State Fermentation. FERMENTATION 2022.

Abstract
The oleaginous fungus Mucor circinelloides has been studied for microbial oil production. Solid–state fermentation may be more suitable for lipid production than submerged fermentation due to its special filamentous structure and lower fermentation costs. M. circinelloides WJ11 under solid–state fermentation indicated that the total fatty acid content of mycelia was significantly higher than that of spores (15.0 and 10.4% in mycelia and spores after 192 h, respectively), while the biomass of the fungal mycelia was lower than that of the spores, reaching 78.2 and 86.9 mg/g, respectively. Transcriptomic studies showed that a total of 9069 genes were differentially expressed between spores and mycelia during solid–state fermentation, of which 4748 were up-regulated and 4321 were down-regulated. Among them, triglyceride-related synthases in M. circinelloides were significantly up-regulated in the mycelia. The mRNA expression level of ATP: citrate lyase was obviously increased to provide more acetyl-CoA for fatty acid synthesis in mycelia, moreover, the metabolism of leucine and isoleucine can also produce more acetyl-CoA for lipid accumulation in M. circinelloides. For NADPH supply, the expression of the pentose phosphate pathway was significantly up-regulated in mycelia, while NADP+-dependent malic enzyme was also increased by 9.5-fold under solid–state fermentation. Compared with gene expression in spores, the autophagy pathway was clearly up-regulated in mycelia to prove that autophagy was related to lipid accumulation in M. circinelloides.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) are reservoirs for triglycerides (TGs) and sterol-esters (SEs), but how these lipids are organized within LDs and influence their proteome remain unclear. Using in situ cryo-electron tomography, we show that glucose restriction triggers lipid phase transitions within LDs generating liquid crystalline lattices inside them. Mechanistically this requires TG lipolysis, which decreases the LD's TG:SE ratio, promoting SE transition to a liquid crystalline phase. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal TG depletion promotes spontaneous TG and SE demixing in LDs, additionally altering the lipid packing of the PL monolayer surface. Fluorescence imaging and proteomics further reveal that liquid crystalline phases are associated with selective remodeling of the LD proteome. Some canonical LD proteins, including Erg6, relocalize to the ER network, whereas others remain LD-associated. Model peptide LiveDrop also redistributes from LDs to the ER, suggesting liquid crystalline phases influence ER-LD interorganelle transport. Our data suggests glucose restriction drives TG mobilization, which alters the phase properties of LD lipids and selectively remodels the LD proteome.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is characterized by disturbed lipid metabolism and increased oxidative stress. These conditions lead to the activation of different cellular response mechanisms, including senescence. Cellular senescence constitutes an important response to injury in the liver. Recent findings show that chronic oxidative stress can induce senescence, and this might be a driving mechanism for NAFLD progression, aggravating the disturbance of lipid metabolism, organelle dysfunction, pro-inflammatory response and hepatocellular damage. In this context, the modulation of cellular senescence can be beneficial to ameliorate oxidative stress-related damage during NAFLD progression. This review focuses on the role of oxidative stress and senescence in the mechanisms leading to NAFLD and discusses the possibilities to modulate senescence as a therapeutic strategy in the treatment of NAFLD.

Abstract
Nutrient starvation initiates cell cycle exit and entry into quiescence, a reversible, non-proliferative state characterized by stress tolerance, longevity and large-scale remodeling of subcellular structures. Depending on the nature of the depleted nutrient, yeast cells are assumed to enter heterogeneous quiescent states with unique but mostly unexplored characteristics. Here, we show that storage and consumption of neutral lipids in lipid droplets (LDs) differentially impacts the regulation of quiescence driven by glucose or phosphate starvation. Upon prolonged glucose exhaustion, LDs were degraded in the vacuole via Atg1-dependent lipophagy. In contrast, yeast cells entering quiescence due to phosphate exhaustion massively over-accumulated LDs that clustered at the vacuolar surface but were not engulfed via lipophagy. Excessive LD biogenesis required contact formation between the endoplasmic reticulum and the vacuole at nucleus-vacuole junctions and was accompanied by a shift of the cellular lipid profile from membrane towards storage lipids, driven by a transcriptional upregulation of enzymes generating neutral lipids, in particular sterol esters. Importantly, sterol ester biogenesis was critical for long-term survival of phosphate-exhausted cells and supported rapid quiescence exit upon nutrient replenishment, but was dispensable for survival and regrowth of glucose-exhausted cells. Instead, these cells relied on de novo synthesis of sterols and fatty acids for quiescence exit and regrowth. Phosphate-exhausted cells efficiently mobilized storage lipids to support several rounds of cell division even in presence of inhibitors of fatty acid and sterol biosynthesis. In sum, our results show that neutral lipid biosynthesis and mobilization to support quiescence maintenance and exit is tailored to the respective nutrient scarcity.

Abstract
The asymmetric distribution of phospholipids in membranes is a fundamental principle of cellular compartmentalization and organization. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), a nonbilayer phospholipid that contributes to organelle shape and function, is synthesized at several subcellular localizations via semiredundant pathways. Previously, we demonstrated in budding yeast that the PE synthase Psd1, which primarily operates on the mitochondrial inner membrane, is additionally targeted to the ER. While ER-localized Psd1 is required to support cellular growth in the absence of redundant pathways, its physiological function is unclear. We now demonstrate that ER-localized Psd1 sublocalizes on the ER to lipid droplet (LD) attachment sites and show it is specifically required for normal LD formation. We also find that the role of phosphatidylserine decarboxylase (PSD) enzymes in LD formation is conserved in other organisms. Thus we have identified PSD enzymes as novel regulators of LDs and demonstrate that both mitochondria and LDs in yeast are organized and shaped by the spatial positioning of a single PE synthesis enzyme.

Abstract
To survive, cells sense their surroundings and adapt to enable homeostasis. Studies dissecting this process reveal organizational principles, including quality-control pathways, changes to organelle shape, and inter-organelle communication, that facilitate metabolic or developmental remodeling. In this issue, several reviews discuss these organelle homeostasis principles and how they are altered in disease.

[PMID: 33451930 DOI: 10.1016/j.trecan.2020.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Revised: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Prediction of long-term outcomes from short-term measurements remains a fundamental challenge. Quantitative assessment of signaling dynamics, and the resulting transcriptomic and proteomic responses, has yielded fundamental insights into cellular outcomes. However, the utility of these measurements is limited by their short timescale (hours to days), while the consequences of these events frequently unfold over longer timescales. Here, we discuss the predictive power of static and dynamic measurements, drawing examples from fields that have harnessed the predictive capabilities of such measurements. We then explore potential approaches to close this timescale gap using complementary measurements and computational approaches, focusing on the example of dynamic measurements of signaling factors and their impacts on cellular outcomes.

Abstract
Cellular adaptation to stress and metabolic cues requires a coordinated response of different intracellular compartments, separated by semipermeable membranes. One way to facilitate interorganellar communication is via membrane contact sites, physical bridges between opposing organellar membranes formed by an array of tethering machineries. These contact sites are highly dynamic and establish an interconnected organellar network able to quickly respond to external and internal stress by changing size, abundance and molecular architecture. Here, we discuss recent work on nucleus-vacuole junctions, connecting yeast vacuoles with the nucleus. Appearing as small, single foci in mitotic cells, these contacts expand into one enlarged patch upon nutrient exhaustion and entry into quiescence or can be shaped into multiple large foci essential to sustain viability upon proteostatic stress at the nuclear envelope. We highlight the remarkable plasticity and rapid remodelling of these contact sites upon metabolic or proteostatic stress and their emerging importance for cellular fitness.
