Project description:Overall, the study aims at obtaining a comprehensive picture of the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, transcriptome using high-coverage RNA-seq of sexed whole-insect samples collected at different developmental time points. This experiment focuses on male and female transcriptomes from 4th instar larvae at 12 and 36 hours, and 10 day and 20 day adult mosquitoes. Three biological replicates per sex are included for the 4th instar 12 hour transcriptomes. A single female embryonic 20 hour transcriptome is also included, which is paired with a male transcriptome from the same 20h embryonic timepoint within accession number E-MTAB-2583.

Project description:Spliced messages constitute one-fourth of expressed mRNAs in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and most mRNAs in metazoans. Splicing requires 5' splice site (5'SS), branch point (BP), and 3' splice site (3'SS) elements, but the role of the BP in splicing control is poorly understood because BP identification remains difficult. We developed a high-throughput method, Branch-seq, to map BP and 5'SS of isolated RNA lariats. Applied to S. cerevisiae, Branch-seq detected 76% of expressed, annotated BPs and identified a comparable number of novel BPs. We used RNA-seq to confirm associated 3'SS locations, identifying some 200 novel splice junctions, including an AT-AC intron. We show that several yeast introns use two or even three different BPs, with effects on 3'SS choice, protein coding potential, or RNA stability and identify novel introns whose splicing changes during meiosis or in response to stress. Together, these findings reveal BP-based regulation and demonstrate unanticipated complexity of splicing in yeast. 1 Lariat-seq experiment library. 3 barcoded Branch-seq libraries that make up one experiment. 26 RNA-seq samples, 2 biological replicates of each.

Project description:Down syndrome (DS) confers a 20-fold increased risk of B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), yet the mechanisms underlying this association are undefined. We show that triplication of only 31 genes orthologous to the putative DS Critical Region (DSCR) on chr.21q22 is sufficient to promote B cell-autonomous self-renewal, in vivo maturation defects and leukemogenesis in concert with BCR-ABL. DSCR triplication results in histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) hypomethylation at gene promoters and a transcriptional signature characterized by de-repression of genes targeted by polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2), which methylates H3K27. The same signature is highly enriched among human DS-associated ALLs. Pharmacologic inhibition of PRC2 function is sufficient to confer self-renewal in wild-type B cells while inhibition of H3K27me3 demethylases completely blocks self-renewal induced by DSCR triplication. Finally, overexpression of the DSCR factor HMGN1, a nucleosome remodeling protein that suppresses H3K27me3, is necessary for self-renewal in B cells with DSCR triplication.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide is known to promote skin keratinocyte migration, although the mechanism of action is unclear. In an attempt to identify signaling pathways regulated by hydrogen peroxide in the skin, 3 day post fertilized (dpf) zebrafish larvae (nacre strain) were treated with 3mM hydrogen peroxide for 2 hours and subjected to RNA-seq analyses. Pools of about 1000 embryos for each of three biological replicates were derived from 5 independent mating pairs and raised to larval stages until 3 dpf. All larvae were subsequently homogenized in Trizol and total RNA was extracted using a chloroform extraction protocol treated with DNAse. Messenger RNA (mRNA) was subsequently purified from total RNA using biotin-tagged poly dT oligonucleotides and streptavidin-coated magnetic beads, followed by quality control using an Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer (values >7 were used for sequencing). The poly(A)-tailed mRNA samples were fragmented and double-stranded cDNA generated by random priming for deep sequencing studies. 6 samples total were analyzed. 3 untreated, and 3 hydrogen peroxide treated (3mM, 2hr)

Project description:Patient with multiple sclerosis improves during pregnancy while temporarily worsening post-partum. The reasons behind the disease modulation during pregnancy remain unknown. In this study, we have investigated the effect of pregnancy on circulating CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from patients with multiple sclerosis and healthy controls to gain a deeper understanding why patients with multiple sclerosis improves during pregnancy. We assessed transcriptomics in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells obtained during (1st, 2nd and 3rd trimester) and after pregnancy (6 weeks post-partum), using the RNA-seq.

Project description:The transcriptomic profiling of psoriasis has led to an increased understanding of disease pathogenesis. Although microarray technologies have been instrumental in this regard, it is clear that these tools detect an incomplete set of DEGs. RNA-seq can be used to supplement these prior technologies. Here, the use of RNAseq methods substantially increased the number of psoriasis-related DEGs. Furthermore, DEGs that were uniquely identified by RNA-seq, but not in other published microarray studies, further supported the role of IL-17 and tumor necrosis factor-a synergy in psoriasis. Examination of one of these factors at the protein level confirmed that RNA-seq is a powerful tool that can be used to identify molecular factors present in psoriasis lesions, and may be useful in the identification of therapeutic targets that to our knowledge have not been reported previously. Further studies are in progress to determine the biological significance of DEGs uniquely discovered by RNA-seq. To define the transcriptomic profile of psoriatic skin, three pairs of lesional and nonlesional skin biopsy specimens were taken from patients with untreated moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key regulatory roles in numerous developmental and physiological processes in animals and plants. The elaborate mechanism of miRNA biogenesis involves transcription and multiple processing steps. Here, we report the identification of a pair of evolutionarily conserved NOT2_3_5 domain containing proteins, NOT2a and NOT2b (previously known as At-NOT2 and VIP2, respectively), as components involved in Arabidopsis miRNA biogenesis. NOT2 was identified by its interaction with the Piwi/Ago/Zwille (PAZ) domain of Dicer-like 1 (DCL1), an interaction that is conserved between rice and Arabidopsis. Inactivation of both NOT2 genes in Arabidopsis caused severe defects in male gametophytes, and weak lines show pleiotropic defects reminiscent of miRNA pathway mutants. Impairment of NOT2s decreases the accumulation of pri-miRNAs and mature miRNAs and increases DCL1-containing nuclear speckle number in vivo. In addition, NOT2b protein interacts with Pol II and other miRNA processing factors including two cap-binding proteins, CBP80/ABH1, CBP20 and SERRATE (SE). Therefore, these results suggest that NOT2 proteins promote MIR transcription and facilitate efficient DCL1 recruitment in Arabidopsis. Examination of transcriptome of not2 and wild type by RNA-seq.

Project description:Prep1 is a tumor-suppressor, whereas Meis1 is an oncogene. We show that to perform these activities in MEFs both proteins competitively hetero-dimerize with Pbx1. Meis1 alone transforms Prep1-deficient fibroblasts while Prep1 overexpression inhibits Meis1 tumorigenicity. Pbx1 can therefore alternatively act as oncogene or tumor-suppressor. Prep1 post-translationally controls the level of Meis1 decreasing its stability by sequestering Pbx1. The different levels of Meis1 and the presence of Prep1 are followed at the transcriptional level by the induction of specific transcriptional signatures. The decrease of Meis1 prevents Meis1 interaction with Ddx3x and Ddx5, which are essential for Meis1 tumorigenesis, and modifies the growth promoting DNA binding landscape of Meis1 to the growth controlling landscape of Prep1. Hence the key feature of Prep1 tumor inhibiting activity is the control of Meis1 stability. Examination of Prep1 and Meis1 in three cell type
