Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) differentiation into embyroid bodies (EBs

ABSTRACT: Stem cell differentiation is known to involve changes in RNA expression, but little is known about translational control during differentiation. We comprehensively profiled gene expression during differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into embyroid bodies (EBs) by integrating conventional transcriptome analysis with global assessment of ribosome loading. Differentiation was accompanied by an anabolic switch, characterized by global increases in transcript abundance, polysome content, protein synthesis rates and protein content. Furthermore, 78% of expressed transcripts showed increased ribosome loading, thereby enhancing translational efficiency. Elevated protein synthesis was accompanied by enhanced phosphorylation of eIF-4E binding protein, suggesting regulation by the mTOR pathway. Some transcripts were under exclusive translational control, including Activated Transcription Factor 5 (ATF5) a b-zip transcription factor, Deleted in Colon Cancer (DCC) the tumor suppressor and Wnt1, the beta-catenin agonist. Parsimonious translation in ESCs may provide a layer of quality control to prevent inappropriate gene expression in the pluripotent state. Experiment Overall Design: Embryonic stem cells (ESC) maintained in an undifferentiated state and day-5 Embryoid bodies (EB) were selected for RNA was extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix 430_2 mouse expression arrays. For polysome fractionation, twelve fractions collected from the gradients were combined to form four pools. One ml of each pool (Pools: 1-4) was used for RNA isolation, labeling and hybridization for undifferentiated ESCs (UD1, UD2, UD3 and UD4) and EBs (EB1, EB2, EB3 and EB4). In parallel, total RNA was also isolated from unfractionated lysates for transcript abundance analysis. Three biological replicates of ESCs and EB cultures were used for polysome fractionation and total RNA analysis.

Project description:Microarray comparisons of polysome loading in wild-type Arabidopsis and eif3h mutant; Goal: ; To find the target mRNAs that are translationally regulated by eIF3h. BACKGROUND: The eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF3 has multiple roles during the initiation of translation of cytoplasmic mRNAs. However, the contributions of individual subunits of eIF3 to the translation of specific mRNAs remain poorly understood. RESULTS: Working with stable reporter transgenes in Arabidopsis thaliana it was demonstrated that the h subunit of; eIF3 contributes to the efficient translation initiation of mRNAs harboring upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in their 5â leader sequence. uORFs, which can function as devices for translational regulation, are present in over 30% of Arabidopsis mRNAs, and are enriched among mRNAs for transcriptional regulators and protein modifying enzymes. Microarray comparisons of polysome loading in wild-type and eif3h mutant plants revealed that eIF3h generally helps to maintain efficient polysome loading of mRNAs harboring multiple uORFs. Independently, eIF3h also boosted polysome loading of mRNAs with long coding sequences. Moreover, the lesion in eIF3h revealed a concerted upregulation of translation for specific functional subgroups of mRNAs, including ribosomal proteins and proteins involved in photosynthesis. CONCLUSIONS: The intact eIF3h protein contributes to efficient translation initiation on 5â leader sequences harboring multiple uORFs, although mRNA features independent of uORFs were also implicated. Moreover, our data suggest that regulons of translational control can be revealed by mutations in generic translation initiation factors. Experiment Overall Design: Polysomal and non-polysomal RNA samples were isolated from 10-day-old wild-type and eif3h mutant plants. The translation state (ratio between the polysome and non-polysome, PL/NP) for each gene in the WT and in the mutant was separately established, and then the translation states between the genotype were compared.
