    Abstract: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transitions from mitotically dividing vegetative cells to sexually competent gametes of two distinct mating types following nutrient deprivation. Gametes of opposite mating type interact via their cilia, initiating an intraciliary signaling cascade and ultimately fuse forming diploid zygotes. The process of gametogenesis is genetically encode, and a previous study revealed numerous significant changes in mRNA abundance during this life-cycle transition. Here we describe a proteomic analysis of cilia derived from vegetative and gametic cells of both mating types in an effort to assess the global changes that occur within the organelle during this process. We identify numerous membrane- and/or matrix-associated proteins in gametic cilia that were not detected in cilia from vegetative cells. This includes the pro-protein from which the GATI-amide gametic chemotactic modulator derives, as well as receptors, a dynamin-related protein, ammonium transporters, two proteins potentially involved in the intraciliary signaling cascade-driven increase in cAMP, and multiple proteins with a variety of interaction domains. These changes in ciliary composition likely directly affect the functional properties of this organelle as the cell transitions between life-cycle stages.

    Abstract: Light chain 1 (LC1) is a highly conserved leucine-rich repeat protein associated with the microtubule-binding domain of the Chlamydomonas outer–dynein arm γ heavy chain. LC1 mutations in humans and trypanosomes lead to motility defects, while its loss in oomycetes results in aciliate zoospores. Here we describe a Chlamydomonas LC1 null mutant ( dlu1-1). This strain has reduced swimming velocity and beat frequency, can undergo waveform conversion, but often exhibits loss of hydrodynamic coupling between the cilia. Following deciliation, Chlamydomonas cells rapidly rebuild cytoplasmic stocks of axonemal dyneins. Loss of LC1 disrupts the kinetics of this cytoplasmic preassembly so that most outer-arm dynein heavy chains remain monomeric even after several hours. This suggests that association of LC1 with its heavy chain–binding site is a key step or checkpoint in the outer-arm dynein assembly process. Similarly to strains lacking the entire outer arm and inner arm I1/f, we found that loss of LC1 and I1/f in dlu1-1 ida1 double mutants resulted in cells unable to build cilia under normal conditions. Furthermore, dlu1-1 cells do not exhibit the usual ciliary extension in response to lithium treatment. Together, these observations suggest that LC1 plays an important role in the maintenance of axonemal stability.

    Abstract: WDR92 associates with a prefoldin-like cochaperone complex and known dynein assembly factors. WDR92 has been very highly conserved and has a phylogenetic signature consistent with it playing a role in motile ciliary assembly or activity. Knockdown of WDR92 expression in planaria resulted in ciliary loss, reduced beat frequency and dyskinetic motion of the remaining ventral cilia. We have now identified a Chlamydomonas wdr92 mutant that encodes a protein missing the last four WD repeats. The wdr92-1 mutant builds only ∼0.7-μm cilia lacking both inner and outer dynein arms, but with intact doublet microtubules and central pair. When cytoplasmic extracts prepared by freeze/thaw from a control strain were fractionated by gel filtration, outer arm dynein components were present in several distinct high molecular weight complexes. In contrast, wdr92-1 extracts almost completely lacked all three outer arm heavy chains, while the IFT dynein heavy chain was present in normal amounts. A wdr92-1 tpg1-2 double mutant builds ∼7-μm immotile flaccid cilia that completely lack dynein arms. These data indicate that WDR92 is a key assembly factor specifically required for the stability of axonemal dynein heavy chains in cytoplasm and suggest that cytoplasmic/IFT dynein heavy chains use a distinct folding pathway.

    Abstract: Coordinated beating is crucial for the function of multiple cilia. However, the molecular mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we characterize a conserved ciliary protein CYB5D1 with a heme-binding domain and a cordon-bleu ubiquitin-like domain. Mutation or knockdown of Cyb5d1 in zebrafish impaired coordinated ciliary beating in the otic vesicle and olfactory epithelium. Similarly, the two flagella of an insertional mutant of the CYB5D1 ortholog in Chlamydomonas ( Crcyb5d1 ) showed an uncoordinated pattern due to a defect in the cis -flagellum. Biochemical analyses revealed that CrCYB5D1 is a radial spoke stalk protein that binds heme only under oxidizing conditions. Lack of CrCYB5D1 resulted in a reductive shift in flagellar redox state and slowing down of the phototactic response. Treatment of Crcyb5d1 with oxidants restored coordinated flagellar beating. Taken together, these data suggest that CrCYB5D1 may integrate environmental and intraciliary signals and regulate the redox state of cilia, which is crucial for the coordinated beating of multiple cilia.
