Project description:RNase Y is an essential endoribonuclease affecting global mRNA stability in Bacillus subtilis. We used high-resolution tiling arrays to analyze the effect of RNase Y depletion on RNA abundance covering the entire genome. The data confirm that this endoribonuclease plays a key role in initiating the decay of a large number of mRNAs as well as non coding RNAs. Comparison of the data with that of two other recent studies revealed very significant differences. About two thirds of the mRNAs upregulated following RNase Y depletion were different when compared to either one of these studies and only about 10% of were in common in all three studies.Our data confirmed already known RNase Y substrates and due to the precision and reproducibility of the profiles allows an exceptionally detailed view of the turnover of hundreds of new RNA substrates. A four arrays study of the transcriptome profiles of the B. subtilis RNase Y depletion strain SSB447 (Shahbabian et al., 2009) in which the gene rny is under the control of an IPTG inducible promoter. Rnase Y depleted cells (IPTG-) are compared to the transcript profiles of non depleted cells (IPTG+). As the rny gene is essential, depletion can only be partial. Here we carefully selected the time point for taking the sample in order to minimize growth rate effects and to obtain an highly reproducible data set.

Project description:We profiled gene expression in synchronized cultures of Sinorhizobium meliloti treated with or without the nodule-specific cysteine-rich peptide 247. We compared gene expression between the two conditions at 5 timepoints (15, 30, 60, 90, 120) following the addition of the peptide A population of synchronized Sinorhizobium meliloti was subjected to two treatments (no treatment and treated with sublethal levels of the NCR247 peptide). A series of timepoints was taken to profile the gene expression in both populations.

Project description:In α-proteobacteria, strict regulation of cell cycle progression is necessary for the specific cellular differentiation required for adaptation to diverse environmental niches. The symbiotic lifestyle of Sinorhizobium meliloti requires a drastic cellular differentiation that includes genome amplification. To achieve polyploidy, the S. meliloti cell cycle program must be altered to uncouple DNA replication from cell division. In the α-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus, cell cycle regulated transcription plays an important role in control of cell cycle progression but this has not been demonstrated in other α-proteobacteria. Here we describe a robust method for synchronizing cell growth that enabled the first global analysis of S. meliloti cell cycle regulated gene expression. The objective of the microarray-based cell cycle gene expression analysis was to determine which genes were transcriptionally regulated as a funciton of a cell cycle in order to understand the contribution of transcriptional regulation to the timing of cell cycle events. The microarray analysis identified 462 genes with cell cycle regulated transcripts, including several key cell cycle regulators, and genes involved in motility, attachment, and cell division. Only 28% of the 462 S. meliloti cell cycle regulated genes were also transcriptionally cell cycle regulated in C. crescentus. Furthermore, CtrA and DnaA binding motif analysis revealed little overlap between the cell cycle-dependent regulons of CtrA and DnaA in S. meliloti and C. crescentus. The predicted S. meliloti cell cycle regulon of CtrA, but not that of DnaA, was strongly conserved in more closely related α-proteobacteria with similar ecological niches as S. meliloti, suggesting that the CtrA cell cycle regulatory network may control functions of central importance to the specific lifestyles of α-proteobacteria. Gene expression levels were quantified in synchronously growing S. meliloti cultures across 8 time points and compared to gene expression levels in unsynchronized culture via a two-color custom agilent array A two-color array format was used with time point from synchronous culture being competed with a sample from unsynchronized culture (control same for all arrays) to determine the cell cycle-phase specific induction or repression of genes relative to batch culture which contains cells in all phases of the cell cycle. For each of the 8 cell cycle time points, four biological replicates were used resulting in 4 arrays per time point and a total of 32 arrays. The arrays also contained duplicates of each probe resulting in two technical replicates per biological replicate per time point.

Project description:Progression through the Caulobacter cell cycle is driven by the master regulator CtrA, an essential two-component signaling protein that regulates the expression of nearly 100 genes. CtrA is abundant throughout the cell cycle except immediately prior to DNA replication. However, the expression of CtrA-activated genes is generally restricted to S-phase. We identify the conserved protein SciP (small CtrA inhibitory protein) and show that it accumulates during G1 where it inhibits CtrA from activating target genes. The depletion of SciP from G1 cells leads to the inappropriate induction of CtrA-activated genes and, consequently, a disruption of the cell cycle. Conversely, the ectopic synthesis of SciP is sufficient to inhibit CtrA-dependent transcription, also disrupting the cell cycle. SciP binds directly to CtrA without affecting stability or phosphorylation; instead SciP likely prevents CtrA from recruiting RNA polymerase. CtrA is thus tightly regulated by a protein-protein interaction which is critical to cell cycle progression. For the sciP depletion studies, the sciP depletion strain was grown to mid-exponential phase in rich media supplemented with xylose, synchronized, and swarmer cells released into either glucose or xylose. Following one cell cycle, swarmers were again isolated from the two conditions and compared directly on arrays. This was done in duplicate. For the sciP overexpression studies, a wild type strain harboring the plasmid pJS14-Pxyl-sciP was grown to mid-exponential phase and xylose added for 2 hours. A strain harboring an empty vector was treated identically. The two populations were compared directly on arrays. This was done in duplicate.

Project description:We used a mouse model of human AML induced by the MLL-AF9 fusion oncogene, and an epigenetic shRNA library to screen for novel potential drug targets. One of the best candidate drug targets identified in these screens was Jmjd1c. Depletion of Jmjd1c impairs growth and colony formation of mouse MLL-AF9 cells in vitro, as well as establishment of leukemia after transplantation. Depletion of JMJD1C impairs expansion and colony formation of human leukemic cell lines, with the strongest effect observed in the MLL-rearranged ALL cell line, SEM. In both mouse and human leukemic cells, the growth defect upon JMJD1C depletion appears to be primarily due to increased apoptosis, which implicates JMJD1C as a potential therapeutic target in leukemia. To assess the effect of JMJD1C depletion on transcription, we compared the transcriptome of shJMJD1C- and shScr-transduced SEM cells soon after induction of shRNA expression by addition of IPTG to the growth medium. To ensure detecting early changes, 48h was selected as the earliest timepoint displaying JMJD1C depletion and detectable phenotype as monitored by PARP and Caspase 3 cleavage. These observations were consistent across triplicate samples. A total of 138 transcripts were detected as changing between the two conditions (FDR<0.05)
