Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are maintained through the regulation of symmetric and asymmetric cell division. We report that conditional ablation of the RNA-binding protein Msi2 results in a failure of HSC maintenance and engraftment caused by a loss of quiescence and increased commitment divisions. Contrary to previous studies, we found that these phenotypes were independent of Numb. Global transcriptome profiling and RNA target analysis uncovered Msi2 interactions at multiple nodes within pathways that govern RNA translation, stem cell function, and TGF-β-signaling. Msi2-null HSCs are insensitive to TGF-β–mediated expansion and have decreased signaling output, resulting in a loss of myeloid-restricted HSCs and myeloid reconstitution. Thus, Msi2 is an important regulator of the HSC translatome and balances HSC homeostasis and lineage bias. One empty vector control– and two Flag-MSI2–overexpressing K562 cell samples were analyzed using HITS-CLIP protocol
Project description:In order to identify YBX1 binding sites on endogenous RNA, we performed HITS-CLIP on endogenous YBX1 We used a previously published method to perform HITS-CLIP on endogenous YBX1 (Licatalosi D, et al. 2008, Nature 456:464-U22)
