RNA Sequencing of HEK293T cells expressing a Dual-specificity Aptamer that specifically increases O-GlcNAcylation on beta-catenin
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: O-GlcNAc is a dynamic post-translational modification on thousands of intracellular proteins, it regulates protein functions and is involved in many metabolic diseases. Using a dual-specificity aptamer, we targeted the O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) to endogenous β-catenin and specifically increased O-GlcNAcylation of β-catenin. To study how O-GlcNAcylation of β-catenin regulates the transcriptome, we performed RNA sequencing on HEK293T cells expressing individual (Ctrl.) or dual-specificity aptamers. We found that O-GlcNAcylation of β-catenin shifts the transcriptome in a Wnt-dependent manner: it repressed the expression of about 100 genes in the absence of Wnt, while it activated the expression of these genes when Wnt signaling was turned on.
