How do regulatory networks evolve?
Module = group of genes co-regulated by the same regulatory system
* Evolution of individual gene targets Gain or loss of genes from a module
* Evolution of activating signals Change in responsiveness but not regulators
* Wholesale evolution of the entire moduleTranscription factor sites occur upstream of totally different genes, responding to totally different signals

How do regulatory networks evolve?
Short time-scales: gene target turnover (gain and loss)

ChIP-chip of two cooperatively-acting TFs in 3 species(S. cerevisiae, S. mikatae, S. bayanus ~20 my diverged)

21% bound in all 3 species
20% bound in all 3 species
Only ~20% of orthologous regions bound in all 3 species
5* non-S. cer but otherwise conserved binding: enriched for Mating Genes
6
Only 20% of bound fragments conserved over 20 my(75% of these have underlying binding sites conserved)

Borneman et al. Science 2007
Substantial ‘rewiring’ of transcriptional circuits:
* Gain and loss of individual gene targets
* S.cer evolution of the module of mating genes
How common will these trends be? Different trends for different functional processes?

Science April 2010
PLoS Biol. April 2010
ChIP-seq (NFB and RNA-Pol II) and RNA-seq in 10 humans from 3 different populations
Lots of variation (up to 25% variation in binding levels)
ChIP-chip’d Ste12 in 43 S. cerevisiae segregants
Nature. March 2010
ChIP-chip of 6 developmental TFs in D. mel vs. D. yakuba (5 my)* only 1-5% of genes are variable targets (gene target turnover)
* lots of evidence of TF binding site turnover within CONSERVED target regions
Cell. March 2013
40% mouse TF binding sites conserved over < 6my
10-22% of TF binding is conserved in mammals(diverged ~80 my)

Ancestral GAL control likely by Cph1 … S. cerevisiae lineage picked up Gal4 and Mig1 sites upstream of GAL genes

In addition to changes in upstream cis-elements …
Major changes in the Gal4 transcription factor & upstream along S. cerevisiae lineage:
* Gained a domain that interacts with the Galactose-responsive Gal80 protein
* Other changes in the upstream response (Gal1-Gal3 duplication) contributedto sensitized pathway
