SARS-CoV-2 lineages have diverged into highly prevalent variants termed "variants of concern" (VOCs). Here, we characterized emerging SARS-CoV-2 spike polymorphisms in vitro and in vivo to understand their impact on transmissibility and virus pathogenicity and fitness. We demonstrate that the substitution S:655Y, represented in the gamma and omicron VOCs, enhances viral replication and spike protein cleavage. The S:655Y substitution was transmitted more efficiently than its ancestor S:655H in th ...[more]

Project description:Protein complexes constitute the primary functional modules of cellular activity. To respond to perturbations, complexes undergo changes in their abundance, subunit composition or state of modification. Understanding the function of biological systems requires global strategies to capture this contextual state information on protein complexes and interaction networks. Methods based on co-fractionation paired with mass spectrometry have demonstrated the capability for deep biological insight but the scope of studies using this approach has been limited by the large measurement time per biological sample and challenges with data analysis. As such, there has been little uptake of this strategy beyond a few expert labs into the broader life science community despite rich biological information content. We present a rapid integrated experimental and computational workflow to assess the re-organization of protein complexes across multiple cellular states. It enables complex experimental designs requiring increased sample/condition numbers. The workflow combines short gradient chromatography and DIA/SWATH mass spectrometry with a data analysis toolset to quantify changes in complex organization. We applied the workflow to study the global protein complex rearrangements of THP-1 cells undergoing monocyte to macrophage differentiation and a subsequent stimulation of macrophage cells with lipopolysaccharide. We observed massive proteome organization in functions related to signaling, cell adhesion, and extracellular matrix during differentiation, and less pronounced changes in processes related to innate immune response induced by the macrophage stimulation. We therefore establish our integrated differential pipeline for rapid and state-specific profiling of protein complex organization with broad utility in complex experimental designs.

Project description:The exocyst is a conserved octameric complex that tethers exocytic vesicles to the plasma membrane prior to fusion. Exocyst assembly and delivery mechanisms remain unclear, especially in mammalian cells. Here we tagged multiple endogenous exocyst subunits with sfGFP or Halo using Cas9 gene-editing, to create single and double knock-in lines of mammary epithelial cells, and interrogated exocyst dynamics by high-speed imaging and correlation spectroscopy. We discovered that mammalian exocyst is comprised of tetrameric subcomplexes that can associate independently with vesicles and plasma membrane and are in dynamic equilibrium with octamer and monomers. Membrane arrival times are similar for subunits and vesicles, but with a small delay (~80msec) between subcomplexes. Departure of SEC3 occurs prior to fusion, whereas other subunits depart just after fusion. About 9 exocyst complexes are associated per vesicle. These data reveal the mammalian exocyst as a remarkably dynamic two-part complex and provide important insights into assembly/disassembly mechanisms.

Project description:Twist1, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, is expressed in mesenchymal precursor populations during embryogenesis and in metastatic cancer cells. In the developing heart, Twist1 is highly expressed in endocardial cushion (ECC) valve mesenchymal cells and is down regulated during valve differentiation and remodeling. Previous studies demonstrated that Twist1 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and expression of primitive ECM molecules in ECC mesenchymal cells. Furthermore, Twist1 expression is induced in human pediatric and adult diseased heart valves. However, the Twist1 downstream target genes that mediate increased cell proliferation and migration during early heart valve development remain largely unknown. Candidate gene and global gene profiling approaches were used to identify direct transcriptional targets of Twist1 during heart valve development. Candidate target genes were analyzed for evolutionarily conserved regions (ECRs) containing E-box consensus sequences that are potential Twist1 binding sequences. ECRs containing conserved E-box sequences were identified for Twist1 responsive genes Tbx20, Cdh11, Sema3C, Rab39b, and Gadd45a. Twist1 binding to these sequences in vivo was determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, and binding was detected in ECCs but not late stage remodeling valves. In addition identified Twist1 target genes are highly expressed in ECCs and have reduced expression during heart valve remodeling in vivo which is consistent with the expression pattern of Twist1. Together these analyses identify multiple new genes involved in cell proliferation and migration that are differentially expressed in the developing heart valves, are responsive to Twist1 transcriptional function, and contain Twist1 responsive regulatory sequences. Murine MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells were treated with siScrambled control or siTwist1 to achieve knockdown of Twist1. Both siScr and siTwist1 were performed in triplicate. Isolated RNA was analyzed with Affymetrix muring MOE 430 2.0 gene chip microarray.

Project description:We describe here transcripts induced after infection of zebrafish with Spring Viremia Carp Virus (SVCV). Two days after infection, differentially expressed transcript levels from selected immune-related zebrafish genes were studied in internal organs (pooled spleen, head kidney). Also, transcripts from resistant fishes to viral infection one month after inoculation were studied. Three different experiments were performed to get three biological replicates. Fishes were divided into two groups in each experiment. First group was infected by immersion with SVCV 10^7 pfu/ml, second group was used as a control of non-infected fishes. 6 fishes per group were sacrificed two days post infection, whereas the rest of the infected fishes from the three experiments were maintained for 30 days in the aquariums and then survivors (six for experiment) were sacrificed. This submission includes three biological replicate groups for the non-infected fish and the two days post-infected fish, and two biological replicate groups for the 30 days post-infected fish.

Project description:Binding of transcription factors (TFs) to regulatory sequences is a pivotal step in the control of gene expression. Despite many advances in the characterization of sequence motifs recognized by TFs, our ability to quantitatively predict TF binding to different regulatory sequences is still limited. Here, we present a novel experimental assay termed BunDLE-seq that provides quantitative measurements of TF binding to thousands of fully designed sequences of 200 bp in length within a single experiment. Applying this binding assay to two yeast TFs we demonstrate that sequences outside the core TF binding site profoundly affect TF binding. We show that TF-specific models based on the sequence or DNA shape of the regions flanking the core binding site are highly predictive of the measured differential TF binding. We further characterize the dependence of TF binding, accounting for measurements of single and co-occurring binding events, on the number and location of binding sites and on the TF concentration. Finally, by coupling our in vitro TF binding measurements, and another application of our method probing nucleosome formation, to in vivo expression measurements carried out with the same template sequences now serving and promoters, we offer insights into mechanisms that may determine the different expression outcomes observed. Our assay thus paves the way to a more comprehensive understanding of TF binding to regulatory sequences, and allows the characterization of TF binding determinants within and outside of core binding sites. Binding experiments were carried out with one of two input libraries; Lib1 (also referred to as “main lib”) includes designed sequence variants of length 150bp, and Lib2 (also referred to as “constant flanks lib”) includes designed sequence variants of length 200bp. The sequences of the variants of interest can be found in the second column of the processed data file (BunDLE-seq_data, see 3 excel sheets). EXP1, EXP2 and EXP3 were carried out using Lib1, and EXP4 was carried out using Lib2. Binding experiments were carried out with different proteins (in different concentrations) – DNA was extracted from bound bands that were formed on the gel and amplified with a primer with a unique 5bp upstream tail specifying the identity of the originating band (also referred to as “band barcode”). Data from the following bands was used in the analysis: EXP1_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “AACGA”, EXP1_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:8) bound band* – with band barcode “TCGTA” , EXP1_band3, histones bound band – with band barcode “AGATA”, EXP2_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “AACGA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:8) bound band* – with band barcode “AGATA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:7) bound band – with band barcode “CACTT”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:6) bound band – with band barcode “TCGTA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:5) bound band – with band barcode “CATCA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:4) bound band – with band barcode “TATTA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:3) bound band – with band barcode “AGTCA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:2) bound band – with band barcode “ACGAA”, EXP2_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:1) bound band – with band barcode “ACAGA”, EXP2_band2, two Gcn4 (conc 1:1) bound band – barcoded with “GTAGA”, EXP3_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “GCATA”, EXP3_band2, single Gal4 (conc 1:1) bound band – with band barcode “GATGT”, EXP3_band3, single Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “GTTCA”, EXP3_band4, two Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “CTCAA”, EXP4_band1, no-protein band – with band barcode “GAGTA”, EXP4_band2, single Gcn4 (conc 1:3) bound band – “TACCA”, EXP4_band3, no-protein band – with band barcode “TCGTT”, EXP4_band3, single Gal4 (conc 3:1) bound band – with band barcode “ACATC”, *biological replicates

Project description:The goal of the experiment: To characterize the dynamic gene expression profile of engineered human skin in vitro and after grafting, and compare with expression profile of uninjured human skin. Bioengineered skin substitutes can facilitate wound closure in massively burned patients, but deficiencies limit their outcomes compared to native skin autografts. To identify gene programs associated with their in vivo capabilities and limitations, we extended previous gene expression profile analyses to now compare engineered skin following in vivo grafting to both in vitro maturation and to normal human skin. Cultured skin substitutes were grafted to full-thickness wounds in athymic mice; biopsies for microarray analyses were collected at multiple in vitro and in vivo time points. Over 10,000 transcripts exhibited large-scale expression pattern differences during in vitro and in vivo maturation. Using hierarchical clustering, eleven different expression profile clusters were partitioned based on differential sample type and temporal stage-specific activation or repression. Analyses show that the wound environment exerts a massive influence on gene expression in skin substitutes. For example, in vivo healed skin substitutes gained expression of many native skin-expressed genes, including those associated with epidermal barrier and multiple categories of cell-cell and cell-basement membrane adhesion. In contrast, immunologic, trichogenic, and endothelial gene programs were largely lacking. These analyses suggest important areas to guide further improvement of engineered skin for both increased homology with native skin and enhanced wound healing. Experiment Overall Design: In the study, we hybridized RNA isolated from skin substitutes from days 3, 7, or 14 of in vitro incubation, and 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, or 56 days after transplantation to athymic mice, to Affymetrix Human U133 Plus 2.0 gene chips.

Project description:Immune responses in higher vertebrates are classically separated into innate and adaptive (or specific) immunity. However, important gaps of knowledge about how adaptive responses are generated in lower vertebrates still remain unsolved. In order to explore the relative importance of adaptive and innate immune responses, we have studied zebrafish transcriptional responses to an infection with the Spring Viraemia of Carp virus (SVCV) in rag1-/- zebrafish mutants compared to wild type zebrafish by using both genome wide and immunological-targeted gene expression microarrays. Both wild type (wt) and mutant (rag1) zebrafish were divided in two groups with 3 individuals per group. First group was infected with 10^5 pfu per ml of SVCV, second group was mock-infected. Two days after challenge zebrafish were sampled, head kidney and spleen of each fish were extracted and pooled between each group. The experiment was repeated once to obtain two biological replicates.

Project description:Chemoproteomic profiling of cysteines has emerged as a powerful method for screening the proteome-wide targets of cysteine-reactive frag-ments, drugs and natural products. Herein, we report the development and an in-depth evaluation of a tetrafluoroalkyl benziodoxole as a cyste-ine-selective chemoproteomic probe. We show that this probe features numerous key improvements compared to the traditionally used cyste-ine-reactive probes, including a superior target occupancy, faster labeling kinetics, and broader proteomic coverage thus enabling profiling of cysteines directly in live cells. Further, the fluorine ‘signature’ of probe 7 constitutes an additional advantage resulting in a more confident adduct-amino acid site assignment in mass spectrometry-based identification workflows. We demonstrate the utility of our new probe for proteome-wide target profiling by identifying the cellular targets of (−)-myrocin G, an antiproliferative fungal natural product with a to-date unknown mechanism of action. We show that this natural product and a simplified analog target the X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 5 (XRCC5), an ATP-dependent DNA helicase that primes DNA repair machinery for non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) upon DNA double strand breaks, making them the first reported inhibitors of this biomedically highly important protein. We further demonstrate that myrocins disrupt the interaction of XRCC5 with DNA leading to sensitization of cancer cells to the chemotherapeutic agent etoposide as well as UV-light induced DNA damage. Altogether, our next generation cysteine-reactive probe enables broader and deeper profiling of the cyste-inome rendering it a highly attractive tool for elucidation of targets of electrophilic small molecules.

Project description:Protein expression is regulated by production and degradation of mRNAs and proteins, but their specific relationships remain unknown. We combine measurements of protein production and degradation and mRNA dynamics to build a quantitative genomic model of the differential regulation of gene expression in LPS stimulated mouse dendritic cells. Changes in mRNA abundance play a dominant role in determining most dynamic fold changes in protein levels. Conversely, the preexisting proteome of proteins performing basic cellular functions is remodeled primarily through changes in protein production or degradation, accounting for over half of the absolute change in protein molecules in the cell. Thus, the proteome is regulated by transcriptional induction of novel cellular functions and remodeling of preexisting functions through the protein life cycle. Mouse primary dendritic cells were treated with LPS or mock stimulus and profiled over a 12-hour time course. Cells were grown in M-labeled SILAC media, which was replaced with H-labeled SILAC media at time 0. Aliquots were taken at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 12 hours post-stimulation and added to equal volumes of a master mix of unlabeled (L) cells for the purpose of normalization. RNA-Seq was performed at 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 hours post-stimulation.
