Project description:TcRBP7 and TcRBP40 proteins are adjacent paralogs in T. cruzi with a conserved RRM structure and similar protein localization at specific foci at the posterior region. We identified their targets in order to compare their function, infering about the evolutionary implication of regulatory proteins duplication. Surprisingly, the mRNA targets co-immunoprecipitated with each RBP were distinct, pointing to a subfunctionalization outcome. In addition, TcRBP40 bound to transcripts of mucin-associated surface proteins (MASPs), which work in T. cruzi’s host-cell invasion. Both proteins recognize similar putative target sequences despite showing different binding behavior. This study shows the rearrangement potential in gene expression networks in the face of duplication of regulatory proteins.

Project description:Recent evidence suggests that RNA interaction can regulate the activity and localization of DNA binding proteins, particularly chromatin-associated proteins. However, it is unknown if these observations are specialized instances for a few key RNAs and chromatin factors in specific contexts, or a general mechanism underlying the establishment of chromatin state and regulation of gene expression. Here, we introduce formaldehyde RNA ImmunoPrecipitation (fRIP-Seq), a sensitive method for cataloging RNA-protein interactions, to survey the RNA associated with a panel of 24 chromatin-associated and traditional RNA binding proteins. For each protein that reproducibly bound measurable quantities of bulk RNA (90% of the panel), we detected enrichment for hundreds to thousands of both noncoding and mRNA transcripts. We found that the enriched sets of RNA share biochemical, functional, and epigenetic properties. Thus, these data provide strong evidence that non-random RNA association is a common feature across diverse classes of chromatin modifying complexes. RNA associated with 24 different proteins using fRIP was compared to total RNA-seq

Project description:Mutations or decreased expression of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) can lead to cardiomyopathies in humans. Here we defined RBPs in healthy and diseased primary cardiomyocytes at a system-wide level by RNA Interactome Capture. This identified 67 novel cardiomyocyte specific RBPs including several contractile proteins. Furthermore, we identified Cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 4 (Cpeb4) as a dynamic RBP in diseased cardiomyocytes, regulating cardiac growth both in vitro and in vivo. To study Cpeb4 in cardiomyocytes, we identified mRNAs bound to and regulated by Cpeb4. Cpeb4 regulates cardiac remodeling by differential expression of transcription factors. Among Cpeb4 target mRNAs, two Zinc finger transcription factors (Zeb1 and Zbtb20) were identified. We show that Cpeb4 regulates the translation of these mRNAs and that Cpeb4 depletion increases their expression. Thus, Cpeb4 emerges as critical regulator of cardiomyocyte function by differential binding of specific mRNAs in response to pathological growth stimulation.

Project description:Cisplatin is a widely used anti-tumor agent for the treatment of testicular and ovarian cancers. Carboplatin is used extensively for small cell, non small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer. Oxaliplatin has recently been approved in the United States (US) for treatment of colorectal cancer. A large portion (in the range of 65% to 98%) of cisplatin in the blood plasma was bound to protein within a day after intravenous administration. The binding of cisplatin and other analogues to proteins and enzymes is generally believed to be the cause of several severe side effects such as ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The interactions between platinum based chemotherapy drugs and proteins is proposed to play important roles in both drug activity and toxicity. Therefore, a better understanding of the molecular mechanism of platinum-protein interactions may have an impact on optimization of strategies for treatment. The objective is to develop novel approaches and techniques to provide detailed mechanistic, kinetic and high-resolution structural information on the binding of platinum analogues to blood proteins, and to improve treatment efficacy and reduce side effects.

Project description:To understand the underlying mechanism by which Alox15 gene is required by HSCs, we performed a comparative DNA microarray analysis using total RNA isolated from wild type Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+, SELP-/- Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+. The result was validated by quantitative real-time PCR analysis of wild type Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+ and SELP-/- Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+. Cancer stem cells are responsible for the initiation and maintenance of some types of cancer, and few effective target genes in these stem cells have been identified. Here we show that the selp is essential for the survival of leukemia stem cells (LSCs) in BCR-ABL-induced chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). To understand the underlying mechanism through which SELP regulates the function of HSCs, the gene expression profiles between WT and Selp-/- HSCs were compared. To understand the underlying mechanism through which SELP regulates the function of HSCs, the gene expression profiles between WT and Selp-/- HSCs were compared.

Project description:Enhancers act to regulate cell type specific gene expression by facilitating the transcription of target genes. In mammalian cells active or primed enhancers are commonly marked by mono-methylation of Histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me1) in a cell-type specific manner. While this histone modification regulates enhancer-dependent transcription programs in mammals, the exact mechanism has remained unclear. In the current study, we conducted SILAC Mass-spec experiments with mono-nucleosomes and identified multiple H3K4me1 associated proteins, including the mediator complex, Cohesin complex, as well as proteins involved in chromatin remodeling. We demonstrate that binding of these protein complexes to enhancers in vivo depends on H3K4me1. We have characterized the PHD domains of DPF1-3 and PHF10 and identified the amino acids involved in binding to H3K4me1. In addition, we discovered that H3K4me1 nucleosomes are more efficiently remodeled by BAF complex in vitro. Our results suggest that H3K4me1 plays an active role at enhancers through binding of a diverse set of chromatin regulators.

Project description:Studies in epitranscriptomics indicates that RNA is modified by a variety of enzymes. Among these RNA modifications, A-to-I RNA editing occurs frequently in the mammalian transcriptome. These RNA editing sites can be detected directly from RNA-seq data by examining nucleotide changes from adenosine (A) to guanine (G), which substitutes for inosine (I). However, a careful investigation of such nucleotide changes must be conducted to distinguish sequencing errors and genomic mutations from the genuine editing sites. Building upon our recent introduction of an easy-to-use bioinformatics tool, RNAEditor, to detect RNA editing events from RNA-seq data, we examined the extent by which RNA editing events affects the binding of RNA-binding proteins (RBP). Through employing bioinformatic techniques, we uncover that RNA editing sites occur frequently in RBP-bound regions. Moreover, the presence of RNA editing sites are more frequent when RNA editing islands are examined, which are regions in which RNA editing sites are present in clusters. When the binding of one RBP, HuR, was quantified experimentally, its binding was reduced upon silencing of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR compared to the control—suggesting that the presence of RNA editing islands influences HuR binding to its target regions. These data indicate RNA editing as an important mediator of RBP-RNA interactions—a mechanism which likely constitutes an additional mode of post-transcription gene regulation in biological systems.
