Transcriptional analysis of genes regulating the mitochondrial dNTP pool in muscle cells.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Mutations in genes involved in dNTP metabolism can lead to tissue-specific mitochondrial depletion syndromes (MDS), likely because the expression of key enzymes is reduced to critical levels in post mitotic cells. Our goal was to establish an in vitro skeletal muscle cell model to study the muscle specificity of MDS associated with mitochondrial dNTP pool imbalance. We performed a comprehensive analysis at the mRNA level of enzymes and transporters responsible for dNTP pool imbalance in muscle cells in vitro and in vivo. Agilent Mouse Oligo Arrays 4x44K were utilized to examine expression levels in proliferating and differentiated C2C12 cells as well as in the mouse EDL (fast glycolytic) and soleus (slow oxidative) muscles. The comparison of mRNA expression profiles supports the reliability of our in vitro cell system.
