Project description:PRR5 transcription factor acts in the circadian clock system. To elucidate bound genes by PRR5, Chimeric protein FLAG-PRR5-GFP, was expressed under PRR5 promoter in Col-0 (PRR5pro:FLAG-PRR5-GFP/prr5). ChIP was performed using anti-GFP antibody (ab290;Abcam), which was bound to Dynabeads Protein G (100-03D;Life technologies), and ChIP DNA and input DNA were analyzed by Illumina GA II.

Project description:Goals: characterization of the transcription factor Ros1 in Ustilago maydis Methods: generation of deletion mutants, microscopic observations, ectopic expression of ros1, identification of Ros1 regulated genes by RNAseq and ChIP sequencing Results: Ros1 is not involved in plant colonization but is essential to trigger sporogenesis during late stages of infection. Premature expression of ros1 revealed that Ros1 counteracts the b-dependent filamentation program and induces morphological alterations resembling the early steps of sporogenesis. Transcriptional profiling and ChIP seq analyses revealed that Ros1 affects the expression of about 30 % of all U. maydis genes with 40% being direct targets. Cell wall remodeling and plasma membrane modifications are among the processes affected by Ros1 dependent regulation. Interestingly a large number of b-dependent genes including transcription factors and effector genes involved in biotrophy establishment were downregulated by Ros1 while a subset of novel â??late effectorsâ?? were upregulated. Taken together our results indicate that Ros1 is a master regulator of sporogenesis in U. maydis and that the switch to sporogenesis is accompanied by the differential regulation of 75% of the effector genes. 4 samples were analyzed in triplicate. The first two samples correspond to input and output DNA obtained from ChIP carried out on plant material infected with U. maydis strains expressing Ros1 with an HA tag. The other two other samples correspond to input and output DNA from ChIP carried out on plant material infected with U. maydis strains expressing Ros1 without a tag (control samples).

Project description:We found that assassin bugs from the earliest-diverging subfamily of higher Reduviidae (Peiratinae), as well as a subfamily closely related to Triatominae (Stenopodainae) have venom that is highly similar in composition to that produced by previously examined reduviids from Harpactorinae and Reduviinae. This finding suggests that venom composition has been largely stable due to purifying selection among the higher Reduviidae, which is consistent with the ancient origin of venom in the ancestors of Heteroptera 250–300 million years ago (Sunagar and Moran 2015; Walker et al. 2018a). This near homogeneity of venom composition is perhaps surprising considering that reduviid predators have evolved numerous instances of prey specialization and specialized hunting strategies that might be expected to co-evolve with venom. Possibly, further studies focussing on species with more specialized hunting strategies, or different kinds of venom bioactivities, will uncover more nuanced venom adaptations. Alternatively, it is possible that the protease-rich venoms of predatory reduviids are simply well-suited to myriad different hunting strategies. These data are consistent with other examples where venoms are surprisingly similar despite great differences in biology, for example between solitary and eusocial bees. A more detailed picture of venom evolution in Reduviidae would examine venom produced by the early-diverging Phymatine complex as well as venoms of non-reduviid cimicomorphs, prey specialists such as the arachnophagous Emesinae and the myrmecophagous Holoptilinae, and some of the many groups that employ hunting specializations, such as the use of plant resins to catch prey (Hwang and Weirauch 2012). Within Triatominae, examination of saliva produced by additional species from multiple lineages (especially those that switched to blood-feeding independently, if the subfamily is shown to be polyphyletic) and including generalists and specialists on different host taxa and species associated especially with nests and burrows will be informative. The venoms of predatory reduviids such as Zelurus spp. and Opisthacidius spp. that are most closely related to Triatominae, and share some behaviours such as habitation of bird nests by Opisthacidius spp. may also provide more information about the evolution of triatomine saliva.

Project description:Genetic control of pluripotent mammalian ES cells is determined by a transcriptional network, with a "central core" of transcription factors, Pou5f1, Sox2 and Nanog. Zebrafish homologues of the "core pluripotency factors" Pou5f1, SoxB1 and Nanog-like are also crucially involved in early development. However, the degree of functional similarity of the network between mammals and non-mammals is a matter of debate. To identify the components of Pou5f1-dependent transcriptional networks, we determined the genomic binding sites for Pou5f1 and Sox2 in late blastula stage zebrafish embryos using ChIP-seq. We found that Sox2 and Pou5f1 are co-binding to the regulatory regions of Sox2, Pou5f1, and Nanog-like, as well as to multiple orthologues of mammalian plutipotency network components. Deep sequencing was performed using the Illumina GAIIx on DNA samples obtained from Sox2 ChIP, Pou5f1-Flag ChIP and Input Control. Pou5f1 was analysed in technical duplicates to obtain higher sequencing depth.

Project description:Canonical Wnt signaling output is mediated by β-catenin, which interacts with LEF/TCF transcription factors and recruits a general transcriptional activation complex to its C-terminus. Its N-terminus binds BCL9/9L proteins, which bind co-activators that in mammals contribute to fine-tuning the transcriptional output. We found that a BCL9/9L-dependent gene expression signature was strongly associated with patient outcome in colorectal cancer and that stem cell and mesenchymal genes determine its prognostic value. Abrogating BCL9/9L-β-catenin signaling in independent mouse colorectal cancer models resulted in virtual loss of these traits, and oncogenic intestinal organoids lacking BCL9/9L proteins proved no longer tumorigenic. Our findings suggest that the BCL9/9L arm of Wnt-β-catenin signaling sustains a stemness-to-differentiation equilibrium in colorectal cancer, which critically affects disease outcome. Mutational activation of the Wnt pathway is a key oncogenic event in colorectal cancer. Targeting the pathway downstream of activating mutations is challenging, and the therapeutic window is limited by intestinal toxicity. Contrasting with phenotypes caused by inactivating key Wnt pathway components, ablation of BCL9/9L proteins in adult mice indicated that they were dispensable for intestinal homeostasis, consistent with their role in tuning transcription. Cancer stem cells are increasingly recognized as responsible for tumor recurrence. The correlation between stemness traits in colorectal cancer models and BCL9/9L-β-catenin signaling suggests that high Wnt signaling output is required for their maintenance. Our findings suggest that pruning Wnt-β-catenin signaling might be well tolerated and prove sufficient for trimming stemness traits and improving disease outcome.

Project description:This experiment contains the RNA-Seq samples only. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are an invaluable resource for clinical research. However, nucleic acids extracted from FFPE tissues are fragmented and chemically modified making them challenging to use in molecular studies. We analysed 23 fresh-frozen (FF), 35 FFPE and 38 paired FF/FFPE specimens, representing six different human tissue types (bladder, prostate and colon carcinoma; liver and colon normal tissue; reactive tonsil) in order to examine the potential use of FFPE samples in next-generation sequencing (NGS) based retrospective and prospective clinical studies. Two methods for DNA and three methods for RNA extraction from FFPE tissues were compared and were found to affect nucleic acid quantity and quality. DNA and RNA from selected FFPE and paired FF/FFPE specimens were used for exome and transcriptome analysis. Preparations of DNA Exome-Seq libraries was more challenging (29.5 % success) than that of RNA-Seq libraries, presumably because of modifications to FFPE tissue-derived DNA. Libraries could still be prepared from RNA isolated from two-decade old FFPE tissues. Data were analysed using the CLC Bio Genomics Workbench and revealed systematic differences between FF and FFPE tissue-derived nucleic acid libraries. In spite of this, pairwise analysis of DNA Exome-Seq data showed concordance for 70-80 % of variants in FF and FFPE samples stored for fewer than three years. RNA-Seq data showed high correlation of expression profiles in FF/FFPE pairs (Pearson Correlations of 0.90 +/- 0.05), irrespective of storage time (up to 244 months) and tissue type. A common set of 1,494 genes was identified with expression profiles that were significantly different between paired FF and FFPE samples irrespective of tissue type. Our results are promising and suggest that NGS can be used to study FFPE specimens in both prospective and retrospective archive-based studies in which FF specimens are not available.

Project description:In bacteria, Crp-Fnr superfamily transcription factors mediate 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) signaling. The CRP-like protein Clr of the soil-dwelling and plant-symbiotic α-proteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti was previously shown to activate target promoters in both its cAMP- and cGMP-bound states (Krol et al., Microbiology 62:1840–1856, 2016). In order to further characterize the overall regulon of Clr in S. meliloti Chromatin Immuno Precipitation DNA-Sequencing (ChIP-Seq) experiments were performed with C-terminally FLAG tagged Clr under four different growth conditions, namely growth in TY complex medium and MOPS minimal medium, each supplemented with either cAMP or cGMP. For each condition, the respective immunoprecipitated (IP) and non-immunoprecipitated (control) samples were analyzed and compared to locate genomic positions in which Clr-DNA binding occurs. In combining ChIP-Seq with Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assays and promoter-probe assays we expanded the list of known Clr-regulated target promoters and showed that virtually all of these promoters containing a palindromic Clr binding site (CBS) motif are activated both by Clr•cAMP and Clr•cGMP.

Project description:Background: Frankia sp. strains are actinobacteria that form N2-fixing root nodules on angiosperms. Several reference genome sequences are available enabling transcriptome studies in Frankia sp. Genomes from Frankia sp. strains differ markedly in size, a consequence proposed to be associated with a high number of indigenous transposases, more than 200 of which are found in Frankia sp. strain CcI3 used in this study. Because Frankia exhibits a high degree of cell heterogeneity as a consequence of its mycelial growth pattern, its transcriptome is likely to be quite sensitive to culture age. This study focuses on the behavior of the Frankia sp. strain CcI3 transcriptome as a function of nitrogen source and culture age. Results: To study global transcription in Frankia sp. CcI3 grown under different conditions, complete transcriptomes were determined using high throughput RNA deep sequencing. Samples varied by time (five days vs. three days) and by culture conditions (NH4+ added vs. N2 fixing). Assembly of millions of reads revealed more diversity of gene expression between five-day and three-day old cultures than between three day old cultures differing in nitrogen sources. Heat map analysis organized genes into groups that were expressed or repressed under the various conditions compared to median expression values. Twenty-one SNPs common to all three transcriptome samples were detected indicating culture heterogeneity in this slow-growing organism. Significantly higher expression of transposase ORFs was found in the five-day and N2-fixing cultures, suggesting that N starvation and culture aging provide conditions for on-going genome modification. Transposases have previously been proposed to participate in the creating the large number of gene duplication or deletion in host strains. Subsequent RT-qPCR experiments confirmed predicted elevated transposase expression levels indicated by the mRNA-seq data. Conclusions: The overall pattern of gene expression in aging cultures of CcI3 suggests significant cell heterogeneity even during normal growth on ammonia. The detection of abundant transcription of nif (nitrogen fixation) genes likely reflects the presence of anaerobic, N-depleted microsites in the growing mycelium of the culture, and the presence of significantly elevated transposase transcription during starvation indicates the continuing evolution of the Frankia sp. strain CcI3 genome, even in culture, especially under stressed conditions. These studies also sound a cautionary note when comparing the transcriptomes of Frankia grown in root nodules, where cell heterogeneity would be expected to be quite high. Detection of gene expression variance among Frankia HfpCci3 (Cci3) cells grown in ammonium chloride for three days, five days and HfpCci3 cells grown in nitrogen fixing conditions for three days using mRNA-seq

Project description:An enduring issue in evolutionary and cancer biology is how replication infidelity influences genome composition and vice versa. Here we examine this issue by sequencing the genomes of diploid budding yeast strains that are either mismatch repair (MMR) proficient or deficient and encode wild type or mutator variants of the three major nuclear DNA replicases. Analysis of over 43,000 mutations that accumulated in the absence of selective pressure demonstrates that the nuclear DNA replication machinery generates less than one mismatch per genome and in combination with MMR, achieves a genome-wide per base error rate of 1.7 x 10-10. Absent both MMR and purifying selection, replication error patterns strongly depend on replication origin proximity, replication fork direction, and the local DNA sequence. Preferred sequences were observed for base substitutions and deletions. Error rates also vary with replication time, in linker versus nucleosome-bound DNA, in 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions, in coding regions and in intergenic DNA. This genome-wide view shows that replication fidelity is amazingly high but heterogeneous, in patterns that suggest the underlying mechanisms by which replication modulates genome stability and composition and vice versa. Six to ten isolates were sequenced for each combination of DNA polymerase (WT, pol1-L868M, pol2-M644G, pol3-L612M) and mismatch repair (proficient, deficient) genotypes. A single WT isolate was sequenced following micrococcal nuclease digestion.
