This study demonstrates that diatoms utilize transcriptional regulation to acclimate to ocean warming and acidification, primarily by modifying genes related to photosynthesis, electron transport, and carboxylation to save energy. This metabolic reprogramming allows diatoms to adapt to changing environmental conditions and suggests evolutionary changes in response to future climate change.
Under ocean warming and acidification, diatoms use a unique acclimation and adaptation strategy by saving energy and utilizing it for other cellular processes. However, the molecular mechanisms that underlie this reprogramming of energy utilization are currently unknown. Here, we investigate the metabolic reprogramming of the ecologically important diatomSkeletonema dohrniigrown under two different temperature (21 degrees C and 25 degrees C) andpCO(2)(400 and 1000 ppm) levels, utilizing global transcriptomic analysis. We find that evolutionary changes in the baseline gene expression, which we termed transcriptional up- and downregulation, is the primary mechanism used by diatoms to acclimate to the combined conditions of ocean warming and acidification. This transcriptional regulation shows that under higher temperature andpCO(2)conditions, photosynthesis, electron transport and carboxylation were modified with increasing abundances of genes encoding ATP, NADPH and carbon gaining for the carbon-dioxide-concentrating mechanisms (CCMs). Our results also indicate that changes in the transcriptional regulation of CCMs led to a decrease in the metabolic cost to save energy by promoting amino acid synthesis and nitrogen assimilation for the active protein processing machinery to adapt to warming and ocean acidification. This study generated unique metabolic insights into diatoms and suggests that future climate change conditions will cause evolutionary changes in oceanic diatoms that will facilitate their acclimation strategy.
