Identification of Arabidopsis thaliana PRR9 regulated clock components and circadian outputs through genome-wide binding sites analysis

ABSTRACT: We identified genome-wide PRR9 targets by conducting chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing. Plants were grown in cycling 12 h light/12 h dark for two weeks before harvesting at ZT4. The four samples include the immunoprecipitated and input control for prr9-1 PRR9::HA-PRR9 CCR2::LUC #109 (HA9) and the prr9-1 (s9c) parental control. PRR5 PRR7 and TOC1 raw data available from the following Series: PRR5: GSE36361 TOC1: GSE35952 PRR7: GSE49282 (GSM1196649 and GSM1196650)

PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATORs (PRRs) play overlapping and distinct roles in maintaining circadian rhythms and regulating diverse biological processes, including the photoperiodic control of flowering, growth, and abiotic stress responses. PRRs act as transcriptional repressors and associate with chromatin via their conserved C-terminal CCT (CONSTANS, CONSTANS-like, and TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1 [TOC1/PRR1]) domains by a still-poorly understood mechanism. Here, we identified genome-wide targets of ...[more]

Project description:Recent evidence suggest that the circadian timing system plays an important role in the control of renal function and maintaining blood pressure. Here, we analyzed circadian rhythms of urinary excretion of sodium and potassium in wild-type mice and mice lacking circadian transcriptional activator clock. Analysis of urines collected at hourly intervals over a 24-hour period revealed dramatic changes in rhythms of sodium and potassium excretion in clock(-/-) mice. In parallel, significant differences in circadian pattern of plasma aldosterone levels, but not in the 24-hour mean aldosterone levels, were observed. Microarray-based profiling of renal transcriptomes demonstrated that clock(-/-) mice exhibit dysregulation in multiple mechanisms involved in maintaining sodium and potassium balance by the kidney. The most significant changes were detected in the expression levels of several key enzymes (Cyp4a14, Cyp4a12a and Cyp4a12b) required for the conversion of arachidonic acid to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a powerful regulator of renal sodium and potassium excretion, renal vascular tone and blood pressure. The 20-HETE levels measured in kidney microsomes of wild-type mice followed a circadian-like temporal pattern. In clock(-/-) mice, the acrophase of this rhythm was shifted by 8 hours and the 24-hour mean levels of 20-HETE were significantly decreased. These results demonstrate that circadian rhythms of urine electrolyte excretion are largely dependent on the circadian clock activity and indicate that circadian oscillations in renal 20-HETE content could be an important mechanism of blood pressure regulation. We examined the temporal profiles of gene expression in mouse whole kidney. Animals were sacrificed for microdissection every 4 hours, i.e. at ZT0, ZT4, ZT8, ZT12, ZT16 and ZT20 (ZT M-bM-^@M-^S Zeitgeber (circadian) time, indicates time of light-on as ZT0 and time of light-off as ZT12). The microarray hybridization was performed in duplicates on pools of RNA composed of equivalent amounts of RNA prepared from teo or three animals at each ZT time-point.

Project description:Using high throughput sequencing of Drosophila head RNA, a small set of miRNAs that undergo robust circadian oscillations in levels were discovered. We concentrated on a cluster of six miRNAs, mir-959-964, all of which peak at about ZT12 or lights-off. The data indicate that the cluster pri-miRNA is transcribed under bona fide circadian transcriptional control and that all 6 mature miRNAs have short half-lives, a requirement for oscillating. Manipulation of food intake dramatically affects the levels and timing of cluster miRNA transcription with no more than minor effects on the core circadian oscillator. This indicates that the central clock regulates feeding, which in turn regulates proper levels and cycling of the cluster miRNAs. Viable Gal4 knock-in as well as cluster knock-out and over-expression strains were used to localize cluster miRNA expression as well as explore their functions. The adult head fat body is a major site of expression, and feeding behavior, innate immunity, metabolism, and perhaps stress responses are under cluster miRNA regulation. The feeding behavior results indicate that there is a feedback circuit between feeding time and cluster miRNA function as well as a surprising role of post-transcriptional regulation in these behaviors and physiology. To address possible functions of the cluster miRNAs, the knock-out strain (mir959-952-KO) as well as a cluster over-expression strain (UAS-cluster, tim-gal4) was assayed for mRNA changes relative to their WT counterparts on Affymetrix expression arrays. The strategy was based on the observation that miRNAs often cause a decrease in the steady-state levels of their target mRNAs (Guo et al., 2010; Lim et al., 2005). Because of the circadian regulation and the possibility of non-fat body expression, the over-expression strain was generated with the broad circadian driver tim-gal4 rather than a fat body driver. To accommodate the possibility that important mRNA changes only appear at certain circadian times, RNA was assayed from heads collected at two different times, ZT4 and ZT16. Analyzed expression data was assayed from total RNA from Drosophila heads in two sample groups consisting of four samples (with eight samples in total): knock-out strain at ZT4 and ZT16, and its respective wildtype control at ZT4 and ZT16; cluster over-expression strain at ZT4 and ZT16 and its respective wildtype control at ZT4 and ZT16.

Project description:Synthetic DNA-binding proteins have found broad application in gene therapies and as tools for interrogating biology. Engineered proteins based on the CRISPR/Cas9 and TALE systems have been used to alter genomic DNA sequences, control transcription of endogenous genes, and modify epigenetic states. Although the activity of these proteins at their intended genomic target sites have been assessed, the genome-wide effects of their action have not been extensively characterized. Additionally, the role of chromatin structure in determining the binding of CRISPR/Cas9 and TALE proteins to their target sites and the regulation of nearby genes is poorly understood. Characterization of the activity these proteins using modern high-throughput genomic methods would provide valuable insight into the specificity and off-target effects of CRISPR- and TALE-based genome engineering tools. We have analyzed the genome-wide effects of TALE- and CRISPR-based transcriptional activators targeted to the promoters of two different endogenous human genes in HEK293T cells using a variety of high-throughput DNA sequencing methods. In particular, we assayed the DNA-binding specificity of these proteins and their effects on the epigenome. DNA-binding specificity was evaluated by ChIP-seq and RNA-seq was used to measure the specificity of these activators in perturbing the transcriptome. Additionally, DNase-seq was used to identify the chromatin state at target sites of the synthetic transcriptional activators and the genome-wide chromatin remodeling that occurs as a result of their action. Our results show that these genome engineering technologies are highly specific in both binding to their promoter target sites and inducing expression of downstream genes when multiple activators bind to a single promoter. Moreover, we show that these synthetic activators are able to induce the expression of silent genes in heterochromatic regions of the genome by opening regions of closed chromatin and decreasing DNA methylation. Interestingly, the transcriptional activation domain was not necessary for DNA-binding or chromatin remodeling in these regions, but was critical to inducing gene expression. This study shows that these CRISPR- and TALE-based transcriptional activators are exceptionally specific. Although we detected limited binding of off-target sites in the genome and changes to genome structure, these off-target event did not lead to any detectable changes in gene regulation. Collectively, these results underscore the potential for these technologies to make precise changes to gene expression for gene and cell therapies or fundamental studies of gene function. HEK293T cells were transfected in triplicate with plasmids expressing synthetic transcription factors. The synthetic TFs were either (a) dCas9-VP64 fusion protein and a targeting guide RNA (gRNA), or (b) a TALE-VP64 fusion protein engineered to bind to a specific target site in the genome. As a control, cells were transfected with plasmids expressing GFP. After transfection, ChIP-seq was used to identify both on-target and off-target binding sites for the synthetic TFs.
