Project description:Protein translation factors play crucial roles in a variety of stress responses. Here, we show that the eukaryotic elongation factor 1Bdelta (eEF1Bdelta) changes its structure and function from a translation factor into a heat shock response transcription factor by alternative splicing. While eEF1Bdelta is specifically localized in the cytoplasm, the long isoform of eEF1Bdelta (eEF1BdeltaL) is localized in the nucleus and induces heat shock element (HSE)-containing genes in cooperation with heat-shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1). Moreover, the N-terminal domain of eEF1BdeltaL binds with NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and induces stress response heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Specific inhibition of eEF1BdeltaL with siRNA completely inhibits Nrf2-dependent HO-1 induction. In addition, eEF1BdeltaL directly binds to HSE oligo DNA in vitro and associates with HSE containing the HO-1-enhancer region in vivo. Thus, the transcriptional role of eEF1BdeltaL could provide new insights into the molecular mechanism of stress responses. We performed microarray analysis to compare the gene expression induced by eEF1Bdelta1 or eEF1BdeltaL overexpression.

Project description:The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a conserved protein complex occurring in all eukaryotes. The mammalian CSN consists of eight subunits (CSN1 – CSN8) and possesses an intrinsic metalloprotease JAMM motif localised to CSN5. In addition, it is associated with kinases such as protein kinase CK2 and D and the ubiquitin (Ub) specific protease 15. It regulates cullin-RING Ub ligases (CRLs) that label proteins for proteolysis with poly-Ub chains in the Ub proteasome system (UPS). CRLs contain one of the scaffolding cullins 1 – 7, a RING domain protein e. g. Rbx1, and one of hundreds of substrate binding units such as F-box or BTB proteins that specifically target proteins for ubiquitination. The CSN forms functional supercomplexes with CRLs. It removes the Ub-like protein Nedd8 from cullins by its metalloprotease activity and thereby inactivates CRLs. On the other hand, it is essential for CRL function by protecting components and allowing reassembly of the complexes. As a regulator of the UPS the CSN is involved in cell cycle10, DNA repair and development. Overexpression of CSN subunits has been reported in tumour cells. Up to date nothing is known about CSN biogenesis and its regulation. Ten years ago we have observed that overexpression of selected CSN subunits caused a coordinated increase of all CSN subunits and a de novo biosynthesis of the entire complex. Here we show that overexpression of CSN1 mediates an increase of c-Myc which coordinates CSN subunit expression via microRNAs (miRNAs). miRNAs are evolutionarily conserved, endogenous, small, noncoding RNA molecules of about 22 nucleotides that function as posttranscriptional gene regulators. We found that inhibitors of let-7 family miRNAs or upregulation of c-Myc, which represses let-7 miRNAs, resulted in a coordinated increase of CSN subunits and de novo CSN biogenesis. Keywords: Gene expression analysis of human RNA samples using topic-defined PIQOR™ Ubiquitin-PS Microarrays. Two different platforms were used (these are two different microarray batches which are identical in terms of the spotted cDNAs, but differ in the position of some cDNAs) Gene expression analysis of Hela cells overexpressing either CSN2 or CSN1 was performed to study CSN biogenesis and its regulation. Curcumin, Nr. 8 (Curcumin analogon) and Piceatannol were used for the treatment of Hela cells since they inhibit the CSN associated kinases. The aim was to investigate the effect on the signalosome. For each treatment 50 µM Curcumin, Nr. 8 and Piceatannol were used.

Project description:A major development in obesity research is the recognition that the condition is characterized by chronic mild inflammation. Within adipose tissue, this involves the infiltration of macrophages as well as a direct inflammatory response of adipocytes. This study has used Agilent whole-genome microarrays to examine the effects of macrophage-conditioned medium on the global inflammatory response of human adipocytes. Human adipocytes (SGBS cells), differentiated in culture, were treated with macrophage (U937 cells) conditioned media for 4 or 24 h. Control SGBS cells were treated with unconditioned media (control) or RPMI media alone to control for differences in media used to culture U937 cells. There were 6 replicates per group.

Project description:Identifying the effect of the co-regulator Hic-5 (TGFB1I1) on global androgen receptor transcriptional activity in PShTert-AR prostate fibroblast cells with view to further elucidating the broader biological role of Hic-5 on fibroblast spceific androgen signaling. Knockdown of Hic5 for 48 hours in PShTert-AR cells significantly altered the androgen regulation of approximately 1347 genes. The effect of Hic-5 knockdown was to suppress androgen regulation of approximately 85% of those transcripts, by either reducing androgen mediated repression or activition of gene expression. PShTert-AR cells were transfected with 10nM non-specific control siRNA (NS) or with commercially avaliable Hic-5 specific siRNA (siHic5) for 24hrs. Cells were kept in 5% hormone stripped FBS RPMI for a further 24 hours and subsequently treated with either ethanol vehicle control or 10nM DHT for 16hr. Total RNA was extracted. Nine independent vehicle and 9 DHT siNS and siHic5 samples were pooled into three groups of vechicle and DHT treated siNS and siHic5 samples and hybrydised to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST array chips.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation with anti-GLI2 antibody was conducted in human pulomonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs) to determine GLI2 binding sites upstream of FOXF1. An unanticipated and tremendous amount of the non-coding sequences of the human genome are transcribed. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-protein coding transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides and their functions remain enigmatic. We demonstrate that deletions of lncRNA genes cause a lethal lung developmental disorder, Alveolar Capillary Dysplasia with Misalignment of Pulmonary Veins (ACD/MPV), with parent of origin effects. We identify non-coding overlapping deletions 250 kb upstream to FOXF1 in nine patients with ACD/MPV that arose de novo specifically on the maternally inherited chromosome and delete a fetal lung-specific EST, part of an lncRNA. These deletions define distant cis-regulatory region that harbors a differentially methylated CpG island, binds GLI2 depending on the methylation status of this CpG island, and physically interacts with and up-regulates the FOXF1 promoter, consistent with the absence of the fetal lung-transcribed lncRNA perturbing FOXF1 regulation. LncRNA-mediated chromatin interactions may be responsible for position effect phenomenon and potentially cause many disorders of human development.

Project description:The tumor suppressor and deubiquitinase (DUB) BAP1 regulates chromatin-associated processes and is frequently mutated in various malignancies. BAP1 and its drosophila orthologue Calypso assemble DUB complexes with ASXL-1, -2, -3 paralogues and ASX respectively, and these cofactors are required for stimulating their DUB activity. However how the DUB activity of BAP1 is regulated remains largely unknown. Here we show that BAP1 promotes monoubiquitination of ASXLs on the ASXM/DEUBAD domain. ASXL2 monoubiquitination promotes its stability or proteasomal degradation, stimulates BAP1 DUB activity and is required for mammalian cell proliferation. Monoubiquitination of ASXL2 is directly catalyzed by UBE2E family of ubiquitin conjugating enzymes and is regulated by deubiquitination. Monoubiquitination of ASX is regulated by Calypso and is required for drosophila development. We further revealed a switch mechanism that tightly regulate BAP1 function, as a monoubiquitination of BAP1 UCH domain is mutually exclusive with ASXL2 monoubiquitination, thus ensuring highly coordinated DUB-mediated signaling.
