Project description:Tau (MAPT) is a microtubule-associated protein causing frequent neurodegenerative diseases or inherited frontotemporal lobar degenerations. Emerging evidence for non-canonical functions of Tau in DNA protection and P53 regulation suggests its involvement in cancer. Indeed, Tau expression correlates with cancer-specific survival or response to microtubule therapeutics. These data may imply common molecular pathways involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. To bring new evidence that Tau represents a key protein in cancer, we present an in silico pan-cancer analysis of MAPT transcriptomic profile in over 11000 clinical samples and over 1300 pre-clinical samples provided by the TCGA and the DEPMAP datasets respectively. We completed this analysis by exploring a possible interplay of MAPT with wild-type or mutated P53. Then, we calculated the impact of MAPT expression on clinical outcome and drug response. Overall, the results support a relevant role of the MAPT gene in several cancer types, although the contribution of Tau to cancer appears to very much depend on the cellular context.

Project description:Most proteins trafficking the secretory pathway of metazoan cells will acquire GalNAc-type O-glycosylation. GalNAc-type O-glycosylation is differentially regulated in cells by the expression of a repertoire of up to twenty genes encoding polypeptide GalNAc-transferase isoforms (GalNAc-Ts) that initiate O-glycosylation by catalyzing the attachment of GalNAc residues to select Ser and Thr residues. These GalNAc-Ts orchestrate the positions and patterns of O-glycans on proteins in poorly understood coordinated ways guided partly by the kinetic properties and substrate specificities of their catalytic domains and modulatory effects of their unique GalNAc-binding lectin domains. Here, we provide the hereto most comprehensive characterization of the non-redundant contributions of individual GalNAc-T isoforms to the O-glycoproteome of the human HEK293 cell line using quantitative differential O-glycoproteomics on a panel of isogenic HEK293 cell lines with knockout of GalNAc-T genes (GALNT1, T2, T3, T7, T10, or T11). We confirm that a major part of the O-glycoproteome is covered by redundancy, while distinct subsets of O-glycosites are covered by non-redundant GalNAc-T isoform-specific functions. We demonstrate that GalNAc-T7 and T10 as predicted from in vitro studies function in completion of high density O-glycosylated regions, while GalNAc-T11 selectively controls the site-specific O-glycosylation of low-density lipoprotein-related receptors in the linker regions between the ligand-binding LDLR class A repeats.

Project description:rs2280381 is an autoimmune disease susceptible variant, which has been reported to be associated with SLE, RA and SSc. Genetic and epigenomic analysis indicate that the rs2280381-containing region is an enhancer region in monocyte. To test the function and regulated genes of the rs228381-containing region, we deleted the rs2280381 ~120bp sequence in U-937 cells, and performed the RNA-seq to detect the gene expression profiles.

Project description:The goal of the experiment was to understand the epigenetic effects of PU.1 haploinsufficiency on pro-B cells. The RS4:11 cell line was edited both mono and biallelicaly via electroporation of Cas9 and guides. Following editing, aliquots of unedited (SPI1 +/+), mono (SPI1 +/-) and biallellicaly edited (SPI1 -/-) cells were lysed before undergoing the transposition reaction. After transposition, the ATAC-seq libraries were purified and then amplified via PCR. Libraries were sequenced using the Illumina Novaseq platform.

Project description:Argonaute (Ago) proteins mediate post-transcriptional gene repression by binding guide microRNAs (miRNAs) to regulate targeted RNAs. To confidently assess Agobound small RNAs, we adapted a mouse embryonic stem cell system to express a single inducible epitope-tagged Ago protein. Here, we report the small RNA profile of Agodeficient cells and determine Ago-dependent stability is a common feature of mammalian miRNAs. Considering both in vivo Ago-dependence for stability and Ago2 binding as defined by immunopurification, we have identified a novel class of non-canonical miRNAs derived from protein-coding gene promoters, which we name transcriptional start site miRNAs (TSS-miRNAs). A subset of promoter-proximal RNA polymerase II complexes produce hairpin RNAs that are processed in a DGCR8/Drosha-independent, but Dicer-dependent manner. TSS-miRNA activity is detectable endogenously, upon transfection of a mimic or by mRNA overexpression. Finally, we present evidence of differential expression and conservation in humans, suggesting important roles in gene regulation.
