Chromatin conformation of the Shh locus in limbs.

ABSTRACT: Expression of Shh in the limb is dependent on a distant enhancer located 850kb away from the gene promoter. We performed chromatin conformation capture (4C-Seq) analysis of the Shh locus in E11.5 mouse limbs so as to better understand the relationship between this regulatory interaction and the structural organisation of the locus. The experiments were performed on wild-type animals as well as on animals carrying an engineered chromosomal inversion (INV(6-C2) (INV6)) . The different viewpoints used (Shh, ZRS, Nom1, Rbm33, Rnf32) enable to characterize the 3D organisation of the locus in the different contexts. The inversion INV6 disrupts the normal topological organisation of the Shh locus in a compact 3D-domain and prevents the physical and regulatory interaction between Shh and its limb enhancer, even though the genomic distance separating the two elements is reduced compared to WT.

4C-seq: Temporal dynamics and developmental memory of 3D chromatin architecture at Hox gene loci

Project description:Hox genes are essential regulators of embryonic development. They are activated in a temporal sequence following their topological order within their genomic clusters. Subsequently, states of activity are fine-tuned and maintained to translate into domains of progressively overlapping gene products. While the mechanisms underlying such temporal and spatial progressions begin to be understood, many of their aspects remain unclear. We have systematically analyzed the 3D chromatin organization of Hox clusters in vivo, during their activation using high-resolution circular chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq). Initially, Hox clusters are organized as single 3D chromatin compartments decorated with bivalent chromatin marks. Their progressive transcriptional activation is associated with a dynamic bi-modal 3D organization, whereby the genes switch one after the other, from an inactive to an active 3D compartment. These local 3D dynamics occur within a larger constitutive framework of interactions within the surrounding Topological Associated Domains, which confirms previous results that regulation of this process in primarily cluster intrinsic. The local step-wise progression in time can be stopped and memorized at various body levels and hence it may accounts for the various chromatin architectures previously described at different anterior to posterior body levels for the same embryo at a later stage. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic samples at different stages of development. Data based on 41 biological samples.

Attenuated sensing of SHH underlies adaptive evolution of bovine limbs

Project description:Artiodactyls display skeletal adaptations for cursorial (running) locomotion. In these animals, the distal limb skeleton is symmetric, which facilitates walking on the tips of the two central digits, while lateral digits are reduced or lost. We have identified that one primary molecular alteration during the formation of the bovine limb is that, in contrast to mouse, the posterior limb bud mesenchyme does not upregulate Ptch1 expression in response to SHH. We have tracked down this dissimilarity to a cis-regulatory SHH-responsive element that is functionally altered in bovine and established a causal link between lack of upregulation of Ptch1 and acquisition of a symmetric distal autopod. A high resolution 4C-seq protocol involving two restriction digests was applied to viewpoint in Ptch1 promoter (mm9 chr13:63,667,995-63,669,157) in three different tissues, allowing robust detection of physical interactions between regulatory DNA elements.

Extensive tumour profiling in primary neuroendocrine breast cancer cases as a role model for personalized treatment in rare and aggressive cancer types

Project description:Especially in rare cancer types such as neuroendocrine breast cancer (NEBC), it is important to analyze the individual characteristics more deeply. NEBC itself is a highly heterogenous disease and no guidelines exist to date. To add another layer of information to understand the tumor characteristics better,we analyzed mRNA from two cancer patients to determine the signal transduction pathways and to identify possible contributions to a beneficial treatment. Among other procedures plasma samples (2 ml) from EDTA tubes were centrifuged at 16000g for 10 min at 4 °C and filtered via a 0.45 µm membrane to remove larger vesicles. The filtrate was used for the extraction of total exosomal RNA using an ExoRNeasy serum/plasma kit (QIAGEN, Germantown, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Purified exosomal RNA was quantified using an miRNA Qubit assay (Life Technologies, Carlsad, USA). The Ion AmpliSeq™ Transcriptome Human Gene Expression Research Panel was used to determine the expression of 20,802 genes including 18,574 coding genes and 2228 non-coding genes based on University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) hg19 annotation.

RNA-seq of mouse embryonic pancreatic mesenchyme

Project description:To determine changes in pancreatic mesenchymal cells during embryonic development, we analyzed the transcriptome of these cells at three embryonic days: 13.5 ('L1'), 15.5 ('L2'), and 17.5 ('L3'). Pancreatic mesenchymal cells were isolated by FACS from Nkx3.2-Cre;LSL-YFP pancreatic tissues based on these cells fluorescent labeling. Two groups of mice were analyzed for each embryonic day ('P1', 'P2').

Conservation and divergence of regulatory strategies and the origin of tetrapod digits

Project description:The evolution of tetrapod limbs from fish fins enabled the conquest of land by vertebrates and thus represents a key step in evolution. Despite the use of comparative gene expression analyses, critical aspects of this transformation remain controversial, in particularly the origin of digits. Hoxa and Hoxd genes are essential for the specification of the different limb segments and their functional abrogation leads to large truncations of the appendages. Here we show that the selective transcription of mouse Hoxa genes in proximal and distal limbs is related to a bimodal higher order chromatin structure, similar to that reported for Hoxd genes, thus revealing a generic regulatory strategy implemented by both gene clusters during limb development. We found the same bimodal chromatin architecture in fish embryos, indicating that the regulatory strategy used to pattern tetrapod limbs predates the divergence between fish and tetrapods. However, when assessed in mice, both fish regulatory domains triggered transcription in proximal, rather than distal limb territories, supporting an evolutionary scenario whereby digits arose as true tetrapod novelties through genetic retrofitting of a preexisting bimodal chromatin framework. We discuss the possibility to consider regulatory circuitries, rather than expression patterns, as essential parameters to define evolutionary synapomorphies. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C seq) at the mouse HoxA and HoxD loci in proximal and distal forelimbs and forebrain at E12.5 and at the zebrafish HoxAa, HoxAb and HoxDa loci in 5 dpf whole embryos.

Analysis of the Arabidopsis shoot meristem transcriptome during floral transition identifies distinct regulatory patterns and an LRR protein that promotes flowering

Project description:We sequenced cDNA synthesized from mRNA from 3 time points of a time course of Arabidopsis thaliana shoot apical meristems. Plants were grown two weeks in short days (time point +0LD) and then exposed to long days for 1 day (time point +1LD) and 3 days (time point +3LD). Meristem cells were collected using laser capture microdissection, to generate a meristem-specific time course of gene expression in the early stages of floral induction. The experiment was done in three biological replicates (called A, B, and C). Some repetitions of sequencing on a few samples (technical replicates) were also done Examination of mRNA levels in shoot apical meristems at 3 time points from the stage of vegetative meristem to the stage of a transition meristem, before the formation of floral meristems.
