Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify the GR genome binding profile as well as that of Pol II, H3K27ac, H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and Ctcf in skeletal muscles. Methods: Libraries were prepared from immunoprecipitated DNA according to standard methods. ChIP-seq libraries were sequenced using a HiSeq 4000 (Illumina) and mapped to the mm10 reference genome using bowtie 2 (Langmead et al., 2009). Data were further analysed using the peak finding algorithm MACS 2 (Zhang et al., 2008) using input as control. All peaks with FDR greater than 0.1 % were excluded from further analysis. The uniquely mapped reads were used to generate the genome-wide intensity profiles, which were visualized using the IGV genome browser (Thorvaldsdottir et al., 2012). Results: HOMER (Heinz et al., 2010) was used to annotate peaks, to calculate overlaps between different peak files, and for motif searches. The genomic features (promoter, exon, intron, 3’ UTR, and intergenic regions) were defined and calculated using Refseq and HOMER. Genes annotated by HOMER were further used for a pathway analysis in WebGestalt (Heinz et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2013).

Project description:The aim of this study is to identify the Lsd1 genome binding profile in brown adipocytes. Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify the Lsd1 genome binding profile in brown adipocytes. Methods: Libraries were prepared from Lsd1-immunoprecipitated DNA according to standard methods. ChIP-seq libraries were sequenced using a HiSeq 2000 (Illumina) and mapped to the mm10 reference genome using bowtie 2 (Langmead et al., 2009). Data were further analysed using the peak finding algorithm MACS 1.41 (Zhang et al., 2008) using input as control. All peaks with FDR greater than 0.3 % were excluded from further analysis. The uniquely mapped reads were used to generate the genome-wide intensity profiles, which were visualized using the IGV genome browser (Thorvaldsdottir et al., 2012). Results: HOMER (Heinz et al., 2010) was used to annotate peaks, to calculate overlaps between different peak files, and for motif searches. The genomic features (promoter, exon, intron, 3’ UTR, and intergenic regions) were defined and calculated using Refseq and HOMER. Genes annotated by HOMER were further used for a pathway analysis in WebGestalt (Heinz et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2013). ChIP-seq analysis revealed that Lsd1 was located at the promoter of 11735 genes.
Project description:To identify the target mRNAs of the m6A reader protein YTHDF2 in mouse hippocampus, we carired out anti YTHDF2 RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) followed by RNA-sequencencing. Using EZ-Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Millipore), RNA from P40 wild type mouse hippocampus was pulled down by rabbit polyclonal anti-YTHDF2 (proteintech) and then sequenced on Illumina Novaseq 6000. The filtered reads were aligned to the mouse reference genome (GRCm38) using BWA mem (v 0.7.12).Then the MACS2 (version 2.1.0) peak calling software was used to identify regions of IP enrichment over background, followed by the motif detected by Homer (Heinz et al., 2010). Peak related genes are then confirmed by PeakAnnotator. Different peak analysis was based on the fold enrichment of peaks of different experiments. A peak was determined as different peak when the odds ratio between two groups was more than 2. Using the same method, genes associated with different peaks were identified. Finally, Biological replicates of anti-YTHDF2 RIP-Seq identified 408 mRNAs transcripts. This study provides gene lists which shows mRNA binding with YTHDF2 in mouse hippocampus.
Project description:In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome profiles of mouse sciatic nerves subjected to crush injuries after inducible deletion of Raptor conditionally in Schwann cells (using a PLPCreERT2-driven recombination of floxed alleles) as compared to controls (floxed Raptor homozygous, PLPCreERT2-negative). The transcriptome profiles of the contralateral uninjured nerves were also analyzed. Differentially expressed genes, defined as genes with a fold change>1.2 and fold discovery rate <0.05, in injured and contralateral nerves of mutants compared to controls were subjected to gene ontology analysis. Additionally, differentially expressed genes in injured mutants nerves as compared to injured control nerves were further analyzed for enrichment of transcription factor binding motifs in the corresponding promoter regions using the bioinformatic tool Homer version 4.9 (Heinz et al., Molecular Cell, 2010)
Project description:The H3K27me3 ChIP-seq data for the human bladder transitional cell carcinoma cell line CL1207 were generated in order to detect regions of regional epigenetic silencing in this cell line and test the performance of several peak calling tools: CCAT (Xu et al., 2010) and HMCan (Ashoor et al., "HMCan – a tool to detect chromatin modifications in cancer samples using ChIP-seq data", submitted).
Project description:Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify the Lsd1 genome binding profile in myoblast C2C12 cells during myogenic and adipogenic differentiation. ChIP-seq libraries were prepared, sequenced using the standard Illumina protocol (HiSeq2000, single read, 50 bp v3), and mapped to the mouse mm10 reference genome by Bowtie. Data were further analyzed using the peak finding algorithm MACS 1.4.2. Homer software was used to annotate peaks, and all peaks with false discovery rate less than 1 % were included.
Project description:We have quantified gene expression in five tissues (brain, heart, kidney, liver and testis) from humans, chimpanzees and rhesus macaques using the Illumina NlaIII Digital Gene Expression (DGE) protocol. This dataset extends a previous microarray study by Khaitovich et al. (Khaitovich et al. 2005) with the rhesus macaque outgroup and complements other previously generated tissue transcriptome profiles from primates (Enard et al. 2002; Khaitovich et al. 2006; Somel et al. 2009; Babbitt et al. 2010; Blekhman et al. 2010; Wetterbom et al. 2010). contributor: Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Deutscher Platz 6, D-04103 Leipzig, Germany
Project description:Genome-wide mRNA expression in brains of wild-type and eIF2B-R132H/R132H mutant mice (Geva et al., BRAIN 133 (8), 2010) profiled at postnatal (P) days 1, 18 and 21 to reflect the early proliferative stage prior to white matter establishment (P1) and the peak of oligodendrocye differentiation and myelin synthesis (P18 and P21).
Project description:Total RNAs were isolated from WT splenic NK cells, and subjected to standard m6A MeRIP, in two replicates, using Illumina Novaseq 6000 platform. The raw sequencing reads were mapped to the genome of Mus musculus (mm10) with default parameters. ExomePeak was used to identify m6A peaks, which were annotated by intersection with gene architecture using ChIPseeker. Sequence motifs enriched in peak regions were identified using Homer.
Project description:Using a transcriptional network derived from 2000 breast cancer gene expression profiles we identify the master regulators (MRs) of FGFR2 signalling. To validate the identified regulons, we examined whether there was enrichment of TF binding near the transcription start sites (TSS) of genes found in the regulons of a particular MR. For ESR1 and SPDEF, ChIP-seq experiments were performed in MCF-7 cells, while existing data was analysed for FOXA1 (Hurtado et al. Nature Genetics, 43:27–33, 2010) and GATA3 (Theodorou, et al., Genome Res 23: 12-22, 2013). ChIP-seq experiments were performed on three biological replicates per each transcription factor. For each sample, 36bp single-end reads were obtained. Peak regions were identified in all ChIP-seq TF data sets using the peak caller algorithm MACS (Zhang et al., Genome Biology, 9(9):R137, 2008) with default parameters.
