Project description:Gene expression profile of splenic B cells (CD19+) from transgenic mice expressing the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane proteins (LMP) 1 and/or LMP2A. Freshly harvested primary B cells were profiled. B lymphocytes from transgenic LMP1, LMP2A, LMP1/2A mice and negative littermates were profiled from 6 month old adult mice; lymphoma cells were passaged in SCID mice and profiled for three LMP1 positive lymphomas and one negative lymphoma. 12 total samples. 4 transgenic B lymphocyte samples pooled from multiple biological replicates were hybridized to duplicate microarrays: LMP1 (pooled from 2 replicates), LMP2A (pooled from 3 replicates); LMP1/2A (pooled from 5 replicates), negative littermates (pooled from 4 replicates). 3 biological replicates of LMP1 lymphomas expressing high, medium and low levels of LMP1 and; 1 negative lymphoma was hybridized to 1 microarray chip. The reference sample consisted of 4 biological replicates of splenic B cells (CD19+) pooled from 4-7 month old non-transgenic Balb/c mice. The same reference was used for all hybridizations.

Project description:RNA-seq was used to characterize the LMP1 mediated regulation of host target gene regulation. Here, we stably expressed doxycycline-induced HA-tagged wildtype (WT) LMP1 or TES1 mutant (TES1m) oe TES2 mutant(TES2m) in GM12878 LCL. We then depleted LMP1 from these cells using CRISPR-Cas9 approach and treated the cells with 400ng/ml of doxycycline to induce expression of WT, TES1m or TES2m LMP1 to rescue from the LMP1 depletion mediated effects (including loss of cell viability) to understand and differenciate the role of LMP1 TES1 vs TES2 domains in LCL.
Project description:Expression of mRNAs in an EBV-positive B-cell strain, 28-2. 28-2 are infected with a derivative of the B-958 strain of EBV, which expresses eGFP constitutively and LMP1 fused to mRFP from its native promoter. Single cells were sorted by flow cytometry for their levels of LMP1-mRFP (5% expressing the lowest levels of LMP1-mRFP or 5% expressing the highest levels of LMP1-mRFP)

High LMP1-mRFP expression. Biological replicates: 3 Low LMP1-mRFP, 3 High LMP1-mRFP. Samples were normalized to the expression of mRNAs in a pool of unsorted 28-2 cells.
