Project description:Legume GRAS-type transcription factors NSP1 and NSP2 are essential for Rhizobium Nod factor-induced nodulation. Both proteins are considered to be Nod factor response factors regulating gene expression upon symbiotic signalling. However, legume NSP1 and NSP2 can be functionally replaced by non-legume orthologs; including rice (Oryza sativa) OsNSP1 and OsNSP2. This shows that both proteins are functionally conserved in higher plants, suggesting an ancient function that was conserved during evolution. Here we show that NSP1 and NSP2 are indispensable for strigolactone biosynthesis in the legume Medicago truncatula as well as rice. Mutant nsp1-nsp2 plants hardly produce strigolactones. The lack of strigolactone biosynthesis coincides with strongly reduced DWARF27 expression in both species. Rice and Medicago represent distinct phylogenetic lineages that split ~150 million years ago. Therefore we conclude that regulation of strigolactone biosynthesis by NSP1 and NSP2 is an ancestral function conserved in higher plants. Since strigolactone biosynthesis is highly regulated by environmental conditions like phosphate starvation, NSP1 and NSP2 will be important tools in future studies on the molecular mechanisms by which environmental sensing is translated into regulation of strigolactone biosynthesis. As NSP1 and NSP2 are single copy genes in legumes, it implies that a single protein complex fulfills a dual regulatory function of different downstream targets; symbiotic and non-symbiotic, respectively. Three biological replications are used for roots of wild type A17, nsp1 and nsp2 mutant plants

Project description:This study investigated the immunological function of PRRSV Nsp1 by ectopic expression of PRRSV Nsp1 in 3D4/31 cell line. Identifying the functional role of PRRSV Nsp1 associated with host cell modulation may provide better knowledge about the pathogenesis of PRRS (Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome).

Project description:Extensive remodeling of host gene expression by coronaviruses nsp1 proteins is a well-documented and conserved aspect of coronavirus-host takeover. Using comparative transcriptomics we investigate the diversity of transcriptional targets between nsp1 proteins between α- and β- coronaviruses. Additionally, Affinity Purification Mass-Spectrometry was implemented to identify common and divergent interactors between the nsp1 proteins. While we detected widespread RNA destabilization between the different nsp1s, closely related nsp1 showed little similarities in clustering of targeted genes. Partial overlapping transcriptional targeting between α-CoV 229E and MERS nsp1 may suggest a shared similar targeting mechanism, as MERS nsp1 preferentially targets nuclear transcripts. Our interactome data shows great variance between nsp1 interactions, with 229E nsp1, the smallest tested here, interacts with the most host proteins, while MERS nsp1 only engaged with a few. While nsp1 is a rather well-conserved protein with consistent functions across different coronaviruses, its precise effects on host cells is virus-specific.

Project description:NSP1 is a major shutoff factor of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, which is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. The functions of NSP1 and its contribution to SARS-CoV-2 propagation is not well understood. We tackled these questions utilizing methods such as RNA sequencing, ribosome profiling, and SLAMseq.

Project description:BackgroundThe human orphan receptor TLX (NR2E1) is a key regulator of neurogenesis, adult stem cell maintenance, and tumorigenesis. However, little is known about the genetic and transcriptomic events that occur following TLX overexpression in human cell lines.AimsHere, we used cytogenetics and RNA sequencing to investigate the effect of TLX overexpression with an inducible vector system in the HEK 293T cell line.Methods and resultsConventional spectral karyotyping was used to identify chromosomal abnormalities, followed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on chromosome spreads to assess TLX DNA copy number. Illumina paired-end whole transcriptome sequencing was then performed to characterize recurrent genetic variants (single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and indels), expressed gene fusions, and gene expression profiles. Lastly, flow cytometry was used to analyze cell cycle distribution. Intriguingly, we show that upon transfection with a vector containing the human TLX gene (eGFP-hTLX), an isochromosome forms on the long arm of chromosome 6, thereby resulting in DNA gain of the TLX locus (6q21) and upregulation of TLX. Induction of the eGFP-hTLX vector further increased TLX expression levels, leading to G0-G1 cell cycle arrest, genetic aberrations, modulation of gene expression patterns, and crosstalk with other nuclear receptors (AR, ESR1, ESR2, NR1H4, and NR3C2). We identified a 49-gene signature associated with central nervous system (CNS) development and carcinogenesis, in addition to potentially cancer-driving gene fusions (LARP1-CNOT8 and NSL1-ZDBF2) and deleterious genetic variants (frameshift insertions in the CTSH, DBF4, POSTN, and WDR78 genes).ConclusionTaken together, these findings illustrate that TLX may play a pivotal role in tumorigenesis via genomic instability and perturbation of cancer-related processes.

Project description:The pathogen causing the current COVID-19 pandemic, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), evades the innate immune machinery through the independent action of several viral proteins, including the nonstructural protein 1 (NSP1). NSP1 has multiple functions, but the relative contribution of NSP1-mediated translational repression, ribosome-proximate degradation of host mRNA, or other molecular mechanisms to viral immune evasion remains unclear. Here we combined several genome wide approaches, including RNA-seq, ribosome footprinting, and ChIP-seq to find that NSP1 predominantly affects transcription of immune-related genes. NSP1 expression in A549 cells induced Histone 3 Lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation of antiviral gene loci, leading to specific suppression of type I and type III interferon pathways. Treatment with the G9a/GLP H3K9 methyltransferase inhibitor UNC0638 reverses this suppression of antiviral genes and blocks viral replication after SARS-CoV2 infection of A549 cells. Our results call attention to epigenetic reprogramming induced by SARS-CoV2 and highlight the importance to identify innate factors regulating histone modification of gene loci targeted by SARS-CoV-2, with possible relevance to the understanding and therapy of other immunomodulatory diseases.
