Project description:The null pacman allele pcm[14] causes at lethaility pupariation. Lethality can be rescued by driving expression of wild-type pacman in somatic cells during development using the UAS-GAL4 system. Use of the driver arm-GAL4 allows adult flies to develop, but pacman is not expressed in the germline cells. RNA was prepared from null pacman testes from rescued flies, parental controls (UAS line and GAL4 line) and from a genetic background control for pcm[14] (a line generated by a neutral excision of the P-element used to induce the pcm[14] deletion). Total RNA was prepared from adult Drosophila testes. Sequencing of each genotype was replicated 3 times with a read depth of 12-15 million reads per replicate.

Project description:Latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA), a multifunctional protein expressed by the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) in latently-infected cells, is required for stable maintenance of the viral episome. This is mediated by two interactions: LANA binds to specific sequences (LBS1 and 2) on viral DNA, and also engages host histones, tethering the viral genome to host chromosomes in mitosis. LANA has also been suggested to affect host gene expression, but both the mechanism(s) and role of this dysregulation in KSHV biology remain unclear. Here we have examined LANA interactions with host chromatin on a genome-wide scale using ChIP-seq, and show that LANA predominantly targets human genes near their transcriptional start sites (TSSs). These host LANA-binding sites are generally found within transcriptionally active promoters and display striking overrepresentation of a consensus DNA sequence virtually identical to the LBS1 motif in KSHV DNA. Comparison of the ChIP-seq profile with whole transcriptome (RNA-seq) data reveals that few of the genes that are differentially regulated in latent infection are occupied by LANA at their promoters. This suggests that direct LANA binding to promoters is not the prime determinant of altered host transcription in KSHV-infected cells. Most surprisingly, the association of LANA to both host and viral DNA is strongly disrupted during the lytic cycle of KSHV. This disruption can be prevented by the inhibition of viral DNA synthesis, suggesting the existence of novel and potent regulatory mechanisms linked to either viral DNA replication or late gene expression.

Project description:Mitochondrial function is an important control variable in the progression of metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). We hypothesize that organization and function of mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) in this pathologic condition is a consequence of shifted substrate availability. Paradoxically, in MAFLD increased de novo lipogenesis (DNL) occurs despite hepatic insulin resistance. Therefore, we addressed this question using our animal model alb-SREBP-1c, which exhibits increased DNL by constitutively active SREBP-1c. Using an omics approach, we show that the abundance of ETC complex subunits and metabolic pathways are altered in liver of these animals. Analyses of cellular metabolic status by functional assays revealed that SREBP-1c-forced DNL induces a limitation of substrates for oxidative phosphorylation that is rescued by enhanced complex II activity. Furthermore, energy metabolism associated gene regulation indicates the counteracting to increase expression of mitochondrial genes and features cell communication by miRNA and exosomal RNA transfer. In conclusion, substrate availability fuels mainly complex II electron flows as a consequence of activated DNL with impact on whole body by liver-specific exosomal RNAs in early stages of MAFLD.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35743314/

Project description:Genetic and molecular approaches have been critical for elucidating the mechanism of the mammalian circadian clock. Here, we demonstrate that the ClockM-NM-^T19 mutant behavioral phenotype is significantly modified by mouse strain genetic background. We map a suppressor of the ClockM-NM-^T19 mutation to a M-bM-^HM-<900 kb interval on mouse chromosome 1 and identify the transcription factor, Usf1, as the responsible gene. A SNP in the promoter of Usf1 causes elevation of its transcript and protein in strains that suppress the Clock mutant phenotype. USF1 competes with the CLOCK:BMAL1 complex for binding to E-box sites in target genes. Saturation binding experiments demonstrate reduced affinity of the CLOCKM-NM-^T19:BMAL1 complex for E-box sites, thereby permitting increased USF1 occupancy on a genome-wide basis. We propose that USF1 is an important modulator of molecular and behavioral circadian rhythms in mammals. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.00426.001.

Project description:Higher-order chromosome structure is assumed to control various DNA-templated reactions in eukaryotes. Meiotic chromosomes implement developed structures called M-bM-^@M-^\axesM-bM-^@M-^] and M-bM-^@M-^\loopsM-bM-^@M-^]; both are suggested to tether each other, activating Spo11 to catalyze meiotic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at recombination hotspots. We found that the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Spo11 homolog Rec12 and its partners form two distinct subcomplexes, DSBC (Rec6-Rec12-Rec14) and SFT (Rec7-Rec15-Rec24). Additionally, Mde2, whose expression is strictly regulated by the replication checkpoint, interacts with a component of each subcomplex. The SFT subcomplex binds to both axes via direct interaction of Rec15 with Rec10 in axes and DSB sites, hence axial Rec10 can partially tether DSB sites located in loops. Importantly, this multiprotein-based tethered axis-loop complex is destabilized in the absence of Mde2. We therefore propose a novel mechanism by which Mde2 functions as a recombination initiation mediator to tether axes and loops, in liaison with the meiotic replication checkpoint. ChIP-chip analyses of Rec10 (in wild type), Mde2 (in wild type and rec15M-bM-^HM-^F), and Rec15 (in wild type, rec10M-bM-^HM-^F, rec24M-bM-^HM-^F and mde2M-bM-^HM-^F) at meiosis 4 hours.

Project description:CTCF sites are abundant in the genomes of diverse species but their function is enigmatic. We used chromosome conformation capture to determine long-range interactions among CTCF/cohesin sites over 2 Mb on human chromosome 11 encompassing the β-globin locus and flanking olfactory receptor genes. Although CTCF occupies these sites in both erythroid K562 cells and fibroblast 293T cells, the long-range interaction frequencies among the sites are highly cell type specific, revealing a more densely clustered organization in the absence of globin gene activity. Both CTCF and cohesins are required for the cell-type-specific chromatin conformation. Furthermore, loss of the organizational loops in K562 cells through reduction of CTCF with shRNA results in acquisition of repressive histone marks in the globin locus and reduces globin gene expression, whereas silent flanking olfactory receptor genes are unaffected. These results support a genome-wide role for CTCF/cohesin sites through loop formation that both influences transcription and contributes to cell-type-specific chromatin organization and function. Comparison of CTCF binding in K562 and 293T cells using ChIP-chip. 3 replicates each cell type, ChIP and input DNA for each replicate.

Project description:Mono-methylation of histone H3 on lysine 4 (H3K4me1) and acetylation of histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27ac) are histone modifications that are highly enriched over the body of actively transcribed genes and enhancers. Although in yeast all H3K4 methylation patterns including H3K4me1 are implemented by Set1/COMPASS, there are three classes of COMPASS-like complexes in Drosophila that could carry out H3K4me1 on enhancers: dSet1, Trithorax and Trithorax-related (Trr). Here, we report that Trr, the Drosophila homolog of mammalian Mll3/4, can function as a major H3K4 mono-methyltransferase on enhancers in vivo. Loss of Trr results in a global decrease of H3K4me1 and H3K27ac in various tissues. Assays with the cut wing margin enhancer imply a functional role for Trr in enhancer-mediated processes. A genome-wide analysis demonstrates that Trr is required for H3K4me1 and H3K27ac on chromatin signatures that resemble the histone modification patterns described for enhancers. Since Trr and mammalian Mll3/4 complexes are distinguished by bearing a unique subunit, the H3K27 demethylase UTX, we propose a model in which the H3K4 mono-methyltransferase Trr, and the H3K27 demethylase, UTX, cooperate to regulate the transition from inactive/poised to active enhancers.

Project description:We performed ChIP-Seq analysis of SOX10, histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) and H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in melanocytes to profile the genomic binding sites of SOX10 and the chromatin landscape. In parallel, we generated Sox10 haploinsufficient cell lines using gene knockout approaches and conducted microarray gene expression analysis to identify functional gene targets of SOX10 transcriptional regulation in melanocytes. We demonstrate that SOX10 predominantly engages “open” chromatin, binds to melanocyte enhancer elements and plays a central role in transcriptional activation and repression of functionally distinct classes of genes. Furthermore, we identified cis-regulatory sequence motifs of putative co-regulatory transcription factors that define SOX10-activated and SOX10-repressed target genes. Our results uncover novel mechanisms and roles of SOX10 in global transcriptional regulation of diverse regulatory pathways in the melanocyte lineage.
