Project description:C2H2 zinc fingers (C2H2-ZFs) are the most prevalent type of vertebrate DNA-binding domain, and typically appear in tandem arrays (ZFAs), with sequential C2H2-ZFs each contacting 3 (or more) sequential bases. C2H2-ZFs can be assembled in a modular fashion, providing one explanation for their remarkable evolutionary success. Given a set of modules with defined 3-base specificities, modular assembly also presents a way to construct artificial proteins with specific DNA-binding preferences. However, a recent survey of a large number of three-finger ZFAs engineered by modular assembly reported high failure rates (~70%), casting doubt on the generality of modular assembly. Here, we used protein-binding microarrays to analyze 28 ZFAs that failed in the aforementioned study. Most (17) preferred specific sequences, which in all but one case resembled the intended target sequence. Like natural ZFAs, the engineered ZFAs typically yielded degenerate motifs, binding dozens to hundreds of related individual sequences. Thus, the failure of these proteins in previous assays is not due to lack of sequence-specific DNA-binding activity. Our findings underscore the relevance of individual C2H2-ZF sequence specificities within tandem arrays, and support the general ability of modular assembly to produce ZFAs with sequence-specific DNA-binding activity. Protein binding microarray (PBM) experiments were performed for a set of 20 artificial zinc finger arrays (ZFAs). Briefly, the PBMs involved binding GST-tagged DNA-binding proteins to two double-stranded 44K Agilent microarrays, each containing a different DeBruijn sequence design, in order to determine their sequence preferences. The method is described in Berger et al., Nature Biotechnology 2006.

Project description:This dataset was used to establish whole blood transcriptional modules (n=260) that represent groups of coordinately expressed transcripts that exhibit altered abundance within individual datasets or across multiple datasets. This modular framework was generated to reduce the dimensionality of whole blood microarray data processed on the Illumina Beadchip platform yielding data-driven transcriptional modules with biologic meaning.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an important class of transcripts that regulate gene expression on many levels, yet their mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. Previous studies have indicated that these RNAs can serve as modular scaffolds to recruit a variety of protein complexes and coordinate their distinct functions. XIST, a founding member of the lncRNA family, controls the inactivation of an entire X chromosome in placental mammals. Here we develop and integrate several orthogonal structure-interaction analysis methods to demonstrate that XIST RNA-protein complex folds into a modular architecture that is conserved in evolution. The discrete XIST RNA domains interact with distinct sets of effector proteins to orchestrate the X chromosome inactivation (XCI). The modular architecture plays an essential role, in addition to the sequence motifs, in determining the specificity of RBP binding and m6A modification. Together, this work builds a comprehensive structure-function model for the XIST RNA-protein complex, and establishes a paradigm for mechanistic studies of lncRNA functions.

Project description:This is an implementation of the Hodgkin-Huxley model of the electrical behavior of the squid axon membrane from:
A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to conduction and excitation in nerve.
A. L. Hodgkin and A. F. Huxley. (1952 ) Journal of Physiology
119(4): pp 500-544; pmID: 12991237
.
Abstract:
This article concludes a series of papers concerned with the flow of electric current through the surface membrane of a giant nerve fibre (Hodgkin,Huxley & Katz, 1952; Hodgkin & Huxley, 1952 a-c). Its general object is to discuss the results of the preceding papers (Part I), to put them into mathematical form (Part II) and to show that they will account for conduction and excitation in quantitative terms (Part III).
This SBML model uses the same formalism as the one described in the paper, contrary to modern versions:
* V describes the the membrane depolarisation relative to the resting potential of the membrane
* opposing to modern practice, depolarization is negative
, not positive
, so the sign of V is different
* inward transmembrane currents are considered positive (inward current positive), contrary to modern use
The changeable parameters are the equilibrium potentials( E_R, E_K, E_L, E_Na
), the membrane depolarization ( V
) and the initial sodium and potassium channel activation and inactivation coefficients ( m,h,n
). The initial values of m,h,n
for the model were calculated for V
= 0 using the equations from the article: n t=0
= α_n V=0
/(α_n V=0
+ β_n V=0
)
and equivalent expressions for h
and m
.
For single excitations apply a negative membrane depolarization (V
Two assignments for parameters in the model, alpha_n and alpha_m, are not defined at V=-10 resp. -25 mV. We did not change this to keep the formulas similar to the original publication and as most integrators seem not to have any problem with it. The limits at V=-10 and -25 mV are 0.1 for alpha_n resp. 1 for alpha_m.
We thank Mark W. Johnson for finding a bug in the model and his helpful comments.

Project description:We developed a novel algorithm, smORFer, detecting smORFs (e.g. <50 codons) which performs with higher accuracy in prokaryotic organisms. smORFer considers structural features of genetic sequence along with in-register translation and using Fourier transform converts them into a measurable score to faithfully select smORFs. The algorithm is executed in a modular way and dependent on the data available different modules can be tested.
