Electroporation transformation of FITC-dextran into Oxyrrhis marina - an early branching dinoflagellate.

Nick Irwin, Elisabeth Hehenberger, Liz Cooney, Yoshihisa Hirakawa, Patrick Keeling DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.3cmgiu6 Protist Research to Optimize Tools in Genetics (PROT-G) INTRODUCTIONHere we describe a protocol for transforming Oxyrrhis marina with FITC-labelled dextran (a DNA analog) by electroporation. This protocol is reproducible, and results in a transformation efficiency of around 1%.We have confirmed the viability of transformed cells by allowing them to recover in the dark (and thus maintain fluorescence intensity) and then by observing fluorescent cells swimming normally, days after transformation (see the video here). NOTE ON AUTOFLUORESCENCEAlthough Oxyrrhis is a non-photosynthetic dinoflagellate and therefore lacks plastid autofluorescence, we have observed a small amount of green autofluorescence that is typically isolated in the anterior of the cell (See top panel of Figure 1).The autofluorescence was observed in wildtype cells, cells electroporated without FITC-dextran, and cells that were incubated with FITC-dextran but not electroporated. The autofluorescence was observed in cultures with both Dunaliella tertiolecta or heat-killed E. coli. The brightness and frequency of the autofluorescence also seemed to be dependent on culture conditions. Not all cells had the autofluorescence.ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONAs of yet we have been unable to demonstrate the actual uptake of plasmid DNA. We have tried using rhodamine labelled plasmids to demonstrate this but the results were inconclusive due to issues with cellular autofluorescence. We have also tried this method with a variety of expression plasmids encoding different promoters. For example, we tried the MOE promoter from Perkinsus marinus (a closely related species) and the generic eukaryotic CMV promoter. However no GFP fluorescence was detected in these samples. We have also tried transforming in vitro synthesized GFP encoding mRNA using this protocol. As of yet, no GFP production has been detected, but this may reflect non-cannonical translational systems in dinoflagellates as the same mRNA could be translated in starfish embryos.Although the development of expression systems in dinoflagellates remains a challenge, our results suggest that O. marina may be amenable to genetic transformation.

Culturing Euplotes crassus to high densities using a combination of algae and bacteria as the food source.

Lawrence A. Klobutcher, Larry Klobutcher DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.2aggabw Protist Research to Optimize Tools in Genetics (PROT-G) This procedure was developed to investigate the possible use of RNAi through bacterial feeding as a means of knocking down expression of particular genes.While the utility of RNAi is still being investigated, the method is effective in growing Euplotes crassus to higher densities than is possible using algae alone. Using moderately dense cultures of algae, we typically achieve cell densities of 500-1,000 cells/ml, while with the E. coli supplemented cultures we describe here, Euplotes cell densities exceed 3,000 cells/ml. In fact, preliminary studies mixing a volume of a Euplotes culture with an equal volume of resuspended E. coli have produced a density of ~8,000 cells/ml.While the described procedure involves small cultures, it can likely be scaled up as required.For some species of Euplotes, long-term culture using bacteria as a food source has not been successful (C. Miceli, personal communication), suggesting that some essential nutrient is not being provided in sufficient quantitities University of Connecticut Health Center, University of Connecticut, School of medicine 1 2019 Lawrence A.
