Project description:Total RNA was isolated from zebrafish embryos harvested at different stages using TRIzol® Reagent (Ambion). mRNA was extracted with using Dynabeads® mRNA Purification Kit (Ambion) and subjected to TURBO™ DNase (Invitrogen) treatment at 37°C for 30 min and ethanol precipitation. Thus purified mRNA was used for RNA-BisSeq library construction. Around 200 ng mRNA premixed with the in vitro transcribed Dhfr mRNA at a ratio of 300:1 (Dhfr mRNA serves as methylation conversion control) was fragmented to ~100-nt fragments for 1 min at 90°C in 10× RNA Fragmentation Reagent (Ambion), then stopped by 10× RNA stop solution (Ambion), and precipitated with 100% ethanol. The RNA pellet was resuspended in 100 µl bisulfite solution (pH 5.1), which is a 100:1 mixture of 40% sodium bisulfite (Sigma) and 600 µM hydroquinone (Sigma) and subjected to heat incubation at 75°C for 4.5 h. The reaction mixture was desalted by passing through Nanosep with 3K Omega 500/pk columns (PALL Corporation) with centrifugation. After washed with nuclease-free water and centrifuged for five times, the RNA was finally disolved in 75 μl nuclease-free water and then desulfonated by incubation with an equal volume of 1 M Tris-HCl (pH 9.0) at 75 °C for 1 h. After ethanol precipitation, the RNA was resuspended in 11 µl of RNase-free water and subjected to library construction. Reverse transcription was carried out with superscript II Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen) and ACT random hexamers. The following procedures were performed with the KAPA Stranded mRNA-Seq Kit (KAPA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.Libraries were sequenced using HiSeq2500 (Illumina) in paired-read mode, creating reads with a length of 125 bp.

Project description:Dihydrofolate reductase activity is essential for the maintenance of One Carbon Metabolism, as it provides the pathway with tetrahydrofolate (the biologically active form of folate). Most of this cellular activity is due to DHFR. Its paralogue DHFR2 was thought to be responsible for mitochondrial dihydrofolate activity based on recombinant versions of the enzyme. However, the function of the endogenous gene/protein has yet to be assessed. This study aimed at investigating the effects of DHFR2 gene loss in HepG2 cells to help identify its function. Furthermore, the expression profile of the DHFR knockdown was interrogated to assess whether DHFR lowered expression has an impact on DHFR2.

Project description:5-methylcytosine (m5C) RNA modification installed by methyltransferase NSUN2 regulates gene expression and cell fate. Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common primary intraocular tumor in children. However, the functional role of m5C modification in retinoblastoma remains unclear. Here, we show that 5-methylcytosine significantly promotes the progression of retinoblastoma. Retinoblastoma samples showed increased m5C levels, indicating a poor prognosis. Changes in global m5C modification were highly associated with tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, NSUN2 stabilized the methylated PFAS mRNA, a tumor promoter in retinoblastoma. Our work uncovers a critical function for m5C methylation in retinoblastoma and provides additional insight into the understanding of m5C modification.

Project description:5-methylcytosine (m5C) modification ubiquitously occurs on mammalian mRNAs and plays important roles in multiple biological processes. Currently, the role of m5C in cancer initiation and progression is gaining more and more research attention, but the detailed mechanism remains unclear. As an m5C methyltransferase with unique mRNA catalytic activity, NSUN2 was found to be highly expressed in multiple cancers including gastric, bladder, gallbladder, and breast cancers, suggesting NSUN2 might exert oncogenic properties through affecting m5C levels in cancer cells. Therefore, to understand the potential roles of RNA m5C modification in tumorigenesis of cervical cancer, we established NSUN2 stable knockdown CaSki cell, and perform RNA-seq and RNA-BisSeq to figure out the possible pathway involved in cervical cancer development.

Project description:Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is a prominent molecular target in antitumor, antibacterial and antiprotozoan chemotherapies. Our in silico amino acid sequence and 3D structure analyses revealed the presence of several putative CK2 phosphorylation sites. Indeed, CK2α subunit phosphorylated DHFR in vitro. In order to identify phosphorylation site we used site-directed mutagenesis to obtain several DHFR mutants with predicted CK2-phosphorylable serine or threonine residues substituted with alanines. All enzyme forms were subjected to in vitro phosphorylation by CK2α subunit. The results pointed to serine 168. Mass spectrometry analyses revealed the presence of additional phosphoserine 145. Phosphorylation by CK2α of S145A mutant and lack of phosphorylation of S145A/S168A double mutant may indicate that S145 phosphorylation may occur only when serine 168 is already phosphorylated. The effect of these and other mutations on enzyme catalytic activity was also investigated.
