Project description:Among the most important regulators of gene expression in bacteria are 'nucleoid-associated proteins'. These proteins alter the topology of the bound DNA by bending, wrapping or bridging it, thus having multiple effects, including transcriptional regulation, on the bacterial cell. Among the best-studied nucleoid proteins are H-NS and Fis, which bind to specific sequences on the DNA. H-NS is a global repressor of gene expression. Fis alters the global conformation of the DNA by introducing branched structures in it; but its effect on gene expression on a genomic scale remains largely unclear.<br><br>Several bacterial transcriptional regulators including H-NS and Fis have been studied using ChIP-chip. However, the higher resolution and dynamic range offered by ChIP-Seq have not been exploited for any bacterial species. By performing ChIP-Seq of these two proteins, we present the first such study in a bacterium. In addition to providing a proof-of-principle for the use of this technology for bacteria, we perform our study at multiple time-points during growth in rich medium, thus generating new insights into how these proteins function under different cellular conditions. Further, by analysing our data in conjunction with newly-generated gene expression and RNA polymerase-chromosome interaction data we provide new interpretation of the genome-scale patterns of the interactions of these proteins to the DNA.

Project description:We report the identification of LSD1 binding genomic regions in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) by high throughput sequencing. By obtaining over 10 million 36 bp reads of sequence from each chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide maps for LSD1 and histone H3 dimethylated on lysine 4 (H3K4me2), the substrate for LSD1 in mouse ESCs. Our results showed an extensive overlap between the LSD1 and H3K4me2 genomic regions and a correlation between the genomic levels of LSD1/H3K4me2 and gene expression, including many highly expressed ESC genes. LSD1 is recruited to the chromatin of cells in the G1/S/G2 phases and is displaced from the chromatin of M phase cells, suggesting that LSD1 or H3K4me2 alternatively occupies LSD1 genomic regions during cell cycle progression. LSD1 knockdown by RNA interference or its displacement from the chromatin by anti-neoplastic agents caused an increase in the levels of a subset of LSD1 target genes. Taken together, these results suggest that cell-cycle dependent association and dissociation of LSD1 with chromatin mediates short-time scale gene expression changes during ES cell cycle progression. Examination of LSD1 and lysine 4 dimethylated histone H3 (H3K4me2) binding genomic regions in embryonic stem cells. Input genomic DNA and DNA immunoprecipitaed with control IgG was included as controls.

Project description:The current concept of epigenetic repression is based on one repressor unit corresponding to one silent gene. This notion, however, cannot adequately explain concurrent silencing of multiple loci observed in large chromosome regions. The long-range epigenetic silencing (LRES) can be a frequent occurrence throughout the human genome. To comprehensively characterize the influence of estrogen signaling on LRES, we analyzed transcriptome, methylome, and estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1)-binding datasets from normal breast epithelia and breast cancer cells. This ?omics? approach uncovered 11 large repressive zones (range: 0.35~5.98 megabases), including a 14-gene cluster located on 16p11.2. In normal cells, estrogen signaling induced transient formation of multiple DNA loops in the 16p11.2 region by bringing 14 distant loci to focal ESR1-docking sites for coordinate repression. However, the plasticity of this free DNA movement was reduced in breast cancer cells. Together with the acquisition of DNA methylation and repressive chromatin modifications at the 16p11.2 loci, an inflexible DNA scaffold may be a novel determinant used by breast cancer cells to reinforce estrogen-mediated repression. ChIP-seq: E2-preexposed or DMSO-preexposed mammosphere-derived epithelial cells (MDECs); MCF-7 cells with 4hr of DMSO or E2 stimulation. MeDIP-chip: Methylated DNA from MCF7 cells was immunoprecipitated by the antibody against 5-methyl cytidine. The immunoprecipitated methylated DNA fragments were processed by the NimbleGen Methylation Microarray Service. Methylation analysis was performed on the NimbleGen Two-Array HG18 Promoter Set. mRNA profiling by array: Four sets of total RNA samples from the mammary gland of each 50-day-old rat with prepubertal exposure of BPA. Each sample set includes one BPA-exposed and one sesame oil-exposed rat RNA.

Project description:Half of all human cancers lose p53 function by missense mutations, with an unknown fraction of these containing p53 in a self-aggregated, amyloid-like state. Here we show that a cell-penetrating peptide, ReACp53, designed to inhibit p53 amyloid formation, rescues p53 function in cancer cell lines and in organoids derived from high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas (HGSOC), an aggressive cancer characterized by ubiquitous p53 mutations. Rescued p53 behaves similarly to its wild-type counterpart in regulating target genes, reducing cell proliferation and increasing cell death. Intraperitoneal administration decreases tumor proliferation and shrinks xenografts in vivo. Our data show the effectiveness of targeting a specific aggregation defect of p53 and its potential applicability to HGSOCs. Vehicle vs. ReACp53 treatment in 4 different samples: 2 cell lines (MCF7 w/ WT p53 as negative control and OVCAR3 w/ R248Q p53) and 2 clinical specimens (primary cells from patient #8 w/ WT p53 as negative control and primary cells from patient #1 w/ R248Q p53)
