Project description:Study of the tetrapod limb has contributed a great deal to our understanding of developmental pathways and how changes to these pathways affect morphology. Most data on tetrapod limb development is known from amniotes, with far less known about genetic mechanisms of limb development in amphibians. To better understand the mechanisms of limb development in anuran amphibians, we use cyclopamine to inhibit Hedgehog signaling at various stages of limb development in Xenopus. We use transcriptomic analysis following cyclopamine exposure to understand the downstream effects of Hedgehog inhibition on gene expression. We find many aspects of Hedgehog function appear to be conserved with respect to amniotes, including the responses of ptc genes, gremlin, bmp2, and the autoregulatory property of shh. We show that, as was proposed based on experiments in chick, Sonic hedgehog plays two distinct roles in limb development â specification of digit number and specification of digit identity. In contrast to these points of conservation, we find that Hedgehog signaling is required for the maintenance of early limb bud outgrowth in Xenopus, a requirement not known for any other tetrapod. Experiment Overall Design: Eight microarray experiments were performed using RNA extracted from batches of hindlimbs dissected from Xenopus laevis tadpoles. Four of these were experimental groups exposed to cyclopamine at 1 µg/ml for 24 hours before animal fixation, and four were experimental groups exposed to the ethanol, the cyclopamine vehicle, at the same concentration used for cyclopamine vehicle for 24 hours. Each pool of RNA consisted of material from 18-22 hindlimb buds. Two experimental groups and two control groups were from one clutch of tadpoles, and the other four pools were from another clutch. Both samples within each of four paired groups (experimental vs. control) were exposed and processed simultaneously.

Project description:Pathogenesis of atherosclerosis results from the interactions between disrupted lipid homeostasis and immune response but the molecular bridges between the major players are still a matter of controversy. We investigated the systemic effect of inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), a well established anorexia agent, in livers; of mice exposed to 24h-cytokine/starvation. 10% of genes of the Agilent 10kb cDNA array is detected above level of detection in the mouse liver. 12% of these is modulated upon starvation while 22% is altered by TNF-α. Experiment Overall Design: Twelve mice (C57BL/6, Harlan) were randomly assigned into three groups. Three animals were i.v. injected by human recombinant TNF-α (30 µg/animal), a dose that is known to have a significant effect in Experiment Overall Design: mice without leading to mortality. Food was withdrawn after application of TNF-alpha (TNF/starvation group). Further, for three animals which were treated with corresponding volume (200µl) of saline a food was withdrawn (starvation group). Three animals from control group had free access to food throughout the study. Mice were sacrificed 20 hours later. Livers for RNA analysis were stored in RNAlater (Quiagen) according to manufacture's instruction. RNA of individual treated mouse was hybridized versus control sample which is obtained by pooling of control RNAs.

Project description:This is parallel comparison of gene regulation by Gcn5 in evolutionarily divergent yeasts S. pombe and S. cerevisiae. Our study showed Gcn5 is required for a similar spectrum of stress responses in both organisms, including the response to KCl. This DNA microarray studies is to find conserved or diverged gene regulation pattern under KCl stress condition in the two yeasts. There are 6 subsets in total, 3 subsets in each evolutionarily divergent yeasts including the following: 1 gcn5 mutant compared to wt under rich medium without treatment, 2 gcn5 mutant compared to wild type both under KCl treatment, 3 wild type strains under KCl treatment compared to wild type without treatment. Keywords: stress response, Gcn5, Comparative genomics, Transcriptional co-activator Gene expression profiling experiment in which gene expression in logarithmically growing cultures of test groups was compared to that of the control groups in rich medium at 25C. There are 6 subsets in total, 3 subsets in each yeast including the following: 1 gcn5 mutant compared to wt under rich medium without treatment, 2 gcn5 mutant compared to wild type both under KCl treatment, 3 wild type strains under KCl treatment compared to wild type without treatment. RNA was extracted and subjected to cDNA expression profiling analysis using the established protocols (Xue et al, 2004). Independent RNA preparations were used to hybridize to microarray slides with dye swap. Data normalized with 'Lowess' per chip per spot normalization.

Project description:The fusion oncoprotein EWS-FLI1 arises from a t(11;22)(q24;q12) chromosomal translocation and causes Ewing's Sarcoma, a malignant bone tumor. The mechanism whereby EWS-FLI1 transforms cells is unknown. We made germline transgenic zebrafish expressing human EWS-FLI1 under the control of the heat shock promoter. Induction of EWS-FLI1 expression causes multiple defects in embryonic development. We compared gene expression in control and transgenic EWS-FLI1 zebrafish. The results identify a conserved set of EWS-FLI1-regulated genes, and provide insight into the pathogenesis of Ewing's Sarcoma tumors. We performed heat shock and isolated total RNA for microarray studies comparing wildtype AB strain zebrafish with transgenic zebrafish expressing human EWS-FLI1 [Tg(HSP:EWS-FLI1)]. RNA was biotin-lableled and hybridized to zebrafish-specific Affymetrix arrays.

Project description:Cysteine is unique among all protein-coding amino acids owing to its intrinsically high nucleophilicity. The cysteinyl thiol group can be covalently modified by both a broad range of redox mechanisms and various electrophiles derived from exogenous or endogenous sources. Measuring proteomic cysteines response to redox perturbation or electrophiles is critical for understanding the underlying mechanisms involved. Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) based on thiol-reactive probes has been the method of choice for such analyses. We therefore adapted this approach and developed a new chemoproteomic platform, termed as QTRP (Quantitative Thiol Reactivity Profiling), that relies on the ability of a commercially available thiol-reactive probe IPM to covalently label, enrich, and quantify the reactive cysteinome in cells and tissues. Here, we provide a detailed and updated workflow of QTRP that includes procedures for (i) labeling of the reactive cysteinome from cell or tissue samples (e.g. control vs treatment) with IPM, (ii) processing the protein samples into tryptic peptides and tagging the probe-modified peptides with isotopically labeled azido-biotin reagents containing a photo-cleavable linker via click chemistry reaction, (iii) capturing biotin-conjugated peptides with streptavidin beads, (iv) identifying and quantifying the photo-released peptides by mass spectrometry (MS)-based shotgun proteomics, (v) interpreting MS data by a streamlined informatic pipeline using a proteomics software, pFind 3, and an automatic post-processing algorithm. We also outline here how to use QTRP for measuring the changes on proteomic cysteines upon redox perturbation and for identifying targeted cysteine sites of thiol-reactive electrophiles. We anticipate that this protocol should find broad applications in both redox/chemical biology and drug discovery. The protocol for sample preparation takes 3 days, whereas MS measurements and data analyses require 75 min and <30 min, respectively, per sample.
