Peteryoungia algae sp. nov. isolated from seaweeds of Gouqi Island, China, and its unique genetic features among Peteryoungia strains. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2024; 117:112.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, light khaki, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, motile via multiple flagella, and catalase- and oxidase-positive bacterium, designated as SSM4.3T, was isolated from the seaweed of Gouqi Island in the East China Sea. The novel isolate grows at 0-5.0% NaCl concentrations (w/v) (optimum 1%), pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum pH 7.0), and 15-37 °C (optimum 30 °C). The 16S rRNA gene sequences-based phylogeny indicates that the novel marine isolate belongs to the family Rhizobiaceae and that it shared the greatest sequence similarity (98.9%) with Peteryoungia rhizophila CGMCC 1.15691T. This classification was also supported by phylogenetic analysis using core genes. The predominant fatty acids (≥ 10%) of the strain were identified as C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c. Q-10 was identified as the major isoprenoid quinone, with trace levels of Q-9 present. The major polar lipids were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The complete genome size of strain SSM4.3T is 4.39 Mb with a DNA G+C content of 61.3%. The average nucleotide identity, digital DNA-DNA hybridization, and average amino acid identity values between the genomes of strain SSM4.3T and its closely related representatives were 74.80-86.93%, 20.00-32.30%, and 70.30-91.52%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis, grounded on the core genes, reveals the evolutionary relationship between SSM4.3T and other Peteryoungia strains. Pan-genomics analysis of 8 previously classified Peteryoungia species and SSM4.3T revealed their unique genetic features and functions. Overall, strain SSM4.3T was considered to be a new species of the Peteryoungia genus; the name Peteryoungia algae sp. nov. has been proposed, with type strain SSM4.3T (= LMG 32561 = MCCC 1K07170).

Abstract
Transposable elements are molecular parasites that persist in their host genome by generating new copies to outpace natural selection. Transposable elements exert a large influence on host genome evolution, in some cases providing adaptive changes. Here we measure the fitness effect of the transposable element insertions in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe type strain by removing all insertions of its only native transposable element family, the long terminal repeat retrotransposon Tf2. We show that Tf2 elements provide a positive fitness contribution to its host. Tf2 ablation results in changes to the regulation of a mitochondrial gene and, consistently, the fitness effect are sensitive to growth conditions. We propose that Tf2 influences host fitness in a directed manner by dynamically rewiring the transcriptional response to metabolic stress.

Large-scale genomic rearrangements boost SCRaMbLE in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Nat Commun 2024; 15:770.

Abstract
Synthetic Chromosome Rearrangement and Modification by LoxP-mediated Evolution (SCRaMbLE) is a promising tool to study genomic rearrangements. However, the potential of SCRaMbLE to study genomic rearrangements is currently hindered, because a strain containing all 16 synthetic chromosomes is not yet available. Here, we construct SparLox83R, a yeast strain containing 83 loxPsym sites distributed across all 16 chromosomes. SCRaMbLE of SparLox83R produces versatile genome-wide genomic rearrangements, including inter-chromosomal events. Moreover, when combined with synthetic chromosomes, SCRaMbLE of hetero-diploids with SparLox83R leads to increased diversity of genomic rearrangements and relatively faster evolution of traits compared to hetero-diploids only with wild-type chromosomes. Analysis of the SCRaMbLEd strain with increased tolerance to nocodazole demonstrates that genomic rearrangements can perturb the transcriptome and 3D genome structure and consequently impact phenotypes. In summary, a genome with sparsely distributed loxPsym sites can serve as a powerful tool for studying the consequence of genomic rearrangements and accelerating strain engineering in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
Although fusions between the centromeres of different human chromosomes have been observed cytologically in cancer cells, since the centromeres are long arrays of satellite sequences, the details of these fusions have been difficult to investigate. We developed methods of detecting recombination within the centromeres of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (intercentromere recombination). These events occur at similar rates (about 10-8/cell division) between two active or two inactive centromeres. We mapped the breakpoints of most of the recombination events to a region of 43 base pairs of uninterrupted homology between the two centromeres. By whole-genome DNA sequencing, we showed that most (>90%) of the events occur by non-reciprocal recombination (gene conversion/break-induced replication). We also found that intercentromere recombination can involve non-homologous chromosome, generating whole-arm translocations. In addition, intercentromere recombination is associated with very frequent chromosome missegregation. These observations support the conclusion that intercentromere recombination generally has negative genetic consequences.

Abstract
Furfural is a major inhibitor found in lignocellulosic hydrolysate, a promising feedstock for the biofermentation industry. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential impact of this furan-derived chemical on yeast genome integrity and phenotypic evolution by using genetic screening systems and high-throughput analyses. Our results showed that the rates of aneuploidy, chromosomal rearrangements (including large deletions and duplications), and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) increased by 50-fold, 23-fold, and 4-fold, respectively, when yeast cells were cultured in medium containing a nonlethal dose of furfural (0.6 g/L). We observed significantly different ratios of genetic events between untreated and furfural-exposed cells, indicating that furfural exposure induced a unique pattern of genomic instability. Furfural exposure also increased the proportion of CG-to-TA and CG-to-AT base substitutions among point mutations, which was correlated with DNA oxidative damage. Interestingly, although monosomy of chromosomes often results in the slower growth of yeast under spontaneous conditions, we found that monosomic chromosome IX contributed to the enhanced furfural tolerance. Additionally, terminal LOH events on the right arm of chromosome IV, which led to homozygosity of the SSD1 allele, were associated with furfural resistance. This study sheds light on the mechanisms underlying the influence of furfural on yeast genome integrity and adaptability evolution. IMPORTANCE Industrial microorganisms are often exposed to multiple environmental stressors and inhibitors during their application. This study demonstrates that nonlethal concentrations of furfural in the culture medium can significantly induce genome instability in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Notably, furfural-exposed yeast cells displayed frequent chromosome aberrations, indicating the potent teratogenicity of this inhibitor. We identified specific genomic alterations, including monosomic chromosome IX and loss of heterozygosity of the right arm of chromosome IV, that confer furfural tolerance to a diploid S. cerevisiae strain. These findings enhance our understanding of how microorganisms evolve and adapt to stressful environments and offer insights for developing strategies to improve their performance in industrial applications.

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
Punctuated bursts of structural genomic variations (SVs) have been described in various organisms, but their etiology remains incompletely understood. Homologous recombination (HR) is a template-guided mechanism of repair of DNA double-strand breaks and stalled or collapsed replication forks. We recently identified a DNA break amplification and genome rearrangement pathway originating from the endonucleolytic processing of a multi-invasion (MI) DNA joint molecule formed during HR. Genome-wide approaches confirmed that multi-invasion-induced rearrangement (MIR) frequently leads to several repeat-mediated SVs and aneuploidies. Using molecular and genetic analysis and a novel, highly sensitive proximity ligation-based assay for chromosomal rearrangement quantification, we further delineate two MIR subpathways. MIR1 is a universal pathway occurring in any sequence context, which generates secondary breaks and frequently leads to additional SVs. MIR2 occurs only if recombining donors exhibit substantial homology and results in sequence insertion without additional breaks or SVs. The most detrimental MIR1 pathway occurs late on a subset of persisting DNA joint molecules in a PCNA/Polδ-independent manner, unlike recombinational DNA synthesis. This work provides a refined mechanistic understanding of these HR-based SV formation pathways and shows that complex repeat-mediated SVs can occur without displacement DNA synthesis. Sequence signatures for inferring MIR1 from long-read data are proposed.
