Berdieva, Mariia Safonov, Pavel Palii, Olga Prilutsky, Mikhail Matantseva, Olga Skarlato, Sergei Dinoflagellida Cold Temperature Transcriptome Gene Expression Profiling Protozoan Proteins Cold-Shock Response Dinoflagellates are unicellular organisms that are crucial components of aquatic ecosystems, known as important primary producers and causes of harmful blooms. They have complex life cycles, including immotile stages, which contribute to their distribution and survival in unfavorable conditions. Temperature changes, primarily cold stress, significantly impact dinoflagellate physiology, influencing metabolic processes, growth rates, and encystment/excystment cycles. This study investigates the transcriptome of temporary cold-induced cysts in the marine planktonic dinoflagellate . We compared gene expression in cysts subjected to a 7-h cold incubation with those returned to standard cultivation conditions and motile vegetative cells. Our results showed a marked predominance of downregulated genes in cold-induced cysts. Encystment affected signaling pathways, including calcium and protein kinase signaling, as well as RNA and protein metabolism. Upon returning to standard conditions, RNA metabolism was reactivated; upregulation of genes encoding some calcium-binding proteins and kinases was observed. Additionally, we analyzed RNA-binding pentatricopeptide repeat-containing proteins, the genes encoding which changed their expression in . cysts, for similarities to plant MRL1 proteins. Finally, we focused on MEI2-like proteins to confirm their role in non-sexual cyst formation and position them within the diversity of MEI2 homologs in dinoflagellates.
