Project description:Even though neuronal and cancer cells have quite different purposes in the body, there is growing evidence that metastatic cancer cells implement signaling mechanisms found in homeostasis of synaptic growth/plasticity. Recent studies have highlight some remarkable similarities in both form and function of these two unique cell type. The p140Cap adaptor protein is an example of a mo-lecular hub that controls cancer cell migration and invasion through regulating protein complexes at cellular adhesions. Moreover, p140Cap in neurons is likely very important for normal brain function-ing, as it works as scaffold in postsynaptic signal transmission complexes and regulates F-actin re-modelling, which results in neuron dendritic spines synaptic plasticity It recruits and regulates signaling molecules both in breast cancer cells and in healthy neuronal synapses.

Project description:Curved cell shapes are widespread among bacteria and important for cellular motility, virulence and fit-ness. However, the underlying morphogenetic mechanisms are still incompletely understood. Here, we identify an outer-membrane protein complex that promotes cell curvature in the pho¬tosynthetic species Rhodo¬spirillum rubrum. We show that the R. rubrum porins Por39 and Por41 form helical ribbon-like struc-tures at the outer curve of the cell that recruit the peptido¬glycan-binding lipo¬pro¬tein PapS, with PapS in-activation, porin de¬localization or disruption of the porin-PapS interface resulting in cell straight¬ening. We further demonstrate that porin-PapS assemblies act as molecular cages that entrap the cell elon¬gation ma-chine¬ry, thus biasing cell growth towards the outer curve. These findings reveal a mechanistically dis¬tinct mor¬pho¬genetic module medi¬ating bacterial cell shape. Moreover, they uncover an unprecedented role of outer-mem¬brane pro¬tein pat¬terning in the spatial control of intracellular processes, adding an important facet to the reper¬toire of regu¬la¬tory mechanisms in bac¬terial cell biology.

Project description:miR-33 is an intronic microRNA within the gene encoding the SREBP2 transcription factor. Like its host gene, miR-33 has been shown to be an important regulator of lipid metabolism. Inhibition of miR-33 has been shown to promote cholesterol efflux in macrophages by targeting the cholesterol transporter ABCA1, thus reducing atherosclerotic plaque burden. Inhibition of miR-33 has also been shown to improve high-density lipoprotein (HDL) biogenesis in the liver and increase circulating HDL-C levels in both rodents and nonhuman primates. However, evaluating the extent to which these changes in HDL metabolism contribute to atherogenesis has been hindered by the obesity and metabolic dysfunction observed in whole-body miR-33–knockout mice. To determine the impact of hepatic miR-33 deficiency on obesity, metabolic function, and atherosclerosis, we have generated a conditional knockout mouse model that lacks miR-33 only in the liver. Characterization of this model demonstrates that loss of miR-33 in the liver does not lead to increased body weight or adiposity. Hepatic miR-33 deficiency actually improves regulation of glucose homeostasis and impedes the development of fibrosis and inflammation. We further demonstrate that hepatic miR-33 deficiency increases circulating HDL-C levels and reverse cholesterol transport capacity in mice fed a chow diet, but these changes are not sufficient to reduce atherosclerotic plaque size under hyperlipidemic conditions. By elucidating the role of miR-33 in the liver and the impact of hepatic miR-33 deficiency on obesity and atherosclerosis, this work will help inform ongoing efforts to develop novel targeted therapies against cardiometabolic diseases.

Project description:Supplement S1: Figure S1. (a) Effect of culture age of Euglena gracilis on gene expression, determined with gene arrays analysis. Total number of differentially expressed genes classified into groups of fold-change-ranges in Euglena gracilis cells of different culture age (5 d, 9 d, 11 d) compared to culture age of six days. Underlying data are presented under the figure or in “FC in classes”, respectively. The total number of investigated genes on microarray was n = 20296. Data were retrieved from four independent cell cultures. (b) Effect of culture age of Euglena gracilis on gene expression. Fraction of differentially expressed genes in percent of all investigated transcripts [n = 20,396] classified into groups of fold-change-ranges in Euglena gracilis cells of different culture age (5 d, 9 d, 11 d) compared to culture age of six days. Underlying data are presented under the figure or in “FC in classes”, respectively. For more details, please see the legend Figure S1 a. (c) Effect of culture age of Euglena gracilis on gene expression. Fraction differentially expressed genes (DEGs) above (“upregulation”), below (“downregulation”) or above AND below (“all”), respectively a certain threshold (th). In contrast to (b), where the fold changes are provided in classes, all DEGs above, below, or above AND below as certain threshold are summarized. In addition, Supplement S1 contains all raw data about all DEGs detected and a rankling of the genes regarding their fold changes (FCs). Supplement S2: Determination of differential gene expression with respect to culture age in Euglena gracilis, obtained with micro-arrays. The table “Overlapping DEGs” contains all transcripts, which were found to be differentially expressed in Euglena gracilis at all three investigated days of culture age (5, 9, or 11 days, respectively), against the 6-day samples. In the table “Overlapping DEGs ranked”, the data are ranked according to their fold change. Supplement S3: Transcription of Euglena gracilis cells of different culture age (5, 9, and 11 d, respectively) was compared with the transcription of cells after 6 days of culturing. All data were obtained in quadruplicate. This supplementary data show the possible functions of the proteins encoded by the DEGs (differentially expressed genes), which were differentially expressed for the corresponding days. Table “Diff transcripts funct.” gives a general overview about gene expression changes for all days. The other tables list the possible function of the DEGs for each particular day. The lists only contain genes where a function could be assigned. Complete lists of DEGs also including transcripts with unknown function are provided in Supplement S1. Supplement S4: Determination of gene expression changes with respect to culture age in Euglena gracilis samples of cells were analyzed after 5 d, 9 d, and 11 days of growth in batch cultures, and their gene expression was compared with the gene expression of cells with a culture age of 5 d. For each day, the number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) each showing the same GO terms were summed up. In order to correlate these changes with the number of all genes with the same GO term in Euglena gracilis, data from sequencing projects were employed [1,2]. Genes with the same GO terms were counted and correlated with the number of observed DEGs in Euglena gracilis. In the first table, GO terms of DEGs were assigned to corresponding days of culturing and correlated with the data of [1, 2] (total numbers and ratios). Diagram “Ratio of DEGs compared to Cordoba et al. [%]” visualizes the ratio of DEGs with total data of [7]. The second diagram shows the number of GO terms of DEGs, which were found at day 9 AND day 11. The change between the two days is provided. Data are visualized in the diagram “Fraction of DEGs of a certain GO over time”. Ref. [2]: Additional file 2: Table S1 “proteome”. Ref. [1]: Supplementary Data, Table S2.

Project description:Focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a severe form of idiopathic nephrotic syn-drome (INS), a glomerulopathy of presumable immune origin and attributed to extrarenal path-ogenic circulating factors. FSGS recurrence (rFSGS) after transplant occurs in 30 to 50% of cases. Direct analysis of patient plasma proteome has been scarcely addressed to date, mainly due to methodological difficulties associated with plasma complexity and dynamic range. In this study, firstly we compared different methods of plasma preparation, secondly we compared the plasma proteome of rFSGS and controls using two preparation methods, and thirdly we analyzed the early proximal signaling events in podocytes subjected to patient plasma, by a combination of phosphoproteomics and lipid raft proteomics (raftomics). By combining immunodepletion and high pH fractionation, we performed a differential proteomic analysis of soluble plasma pro-teins and of extracellular vesicles (EV) obtained from healthy controls, non-INS patient controls, and rFSGS patients (n=4). In both soluble and EV protein sets from rFSGS patients we found a statistically significant increase in a cluster of proteins involved in neutrophil degranulation. A group of lipid binding proteins, generally associated with lipoproteins, was found decreased in the soluble set from rFSGS patients. In addition, three aminoacid transporters involved in mTORC1 activation were found significantly increased in EV from rFSGS. Next, we incubated human podocytes for 30min with 10% plasma from both groups of patients. Phosphoproteomics and raftomics of podocytes revealed profound differences in proteins involved in the mTOR pathway, in autophagy, and in cytoskeleton organization. We analyzed the correlation between the abundance of plasma and plasma-regulated podocyte proteins. The observed changes high-light some of the mechanisms involved in FSGS recurrence and could be used as specific early markers of circulating factor activity on podocytes.

Project description:JAGGED (JAG) is a regulatory gene that controls shoot organ growth in Arabidopsis. To reveal the molecular links between JAG and the cellular activities required for tissue growth, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation-high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq). To reveal the genome-wide JAG binding sites, we used anti-GFP antibodies to pull down JAG-bound DNA from jag-2 inflorescences complemented with a genomic JAG-GFP fusion (JAG:JAG-GFP) [14]. ChIP-Seq was performed and analyzed in triplicate, with wild-type inflorescences used as epitope-negative controls.

Project description:Cross-talk between DNA methylation and histone modifications drives the establishment of composite epigenetic signatures and is traditionally studied using correlative rather than direct approaches. Here we present sequential ChIP-bisulfite-sequencing (ChIP- BS-seq) as an approach to quantitatively assess DNA methylation patterns associated with chromatin modifications or chromatin-associated factors directly. A chromatin- immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-capturing step is used to obtain a restricted representation of the genome occupied by the epigenetic feature of interest, for which a single-base resolution DNA methylation map is then generated. When applied to H3 lysine 27 tri- methylation (H3K27me3), we found that H3K27me3 and DNA methylation are compatible throughout most of the genome, except for CpG islands, where these two marks are mutually exclusive. Further ChIP-BS-seq-based analysis in Dnmt triple- knock-out (TKO) embryonic stem cells revealed that total loss of CpG methylation is associated with alteration of H3K27me3 levels throughout the genome: H3K27me3 in localized peaks is decreased while broad local enrichments (BLOCs) of H3K27me3 are formed. At an even broader scale, these BLOCs correspond to regions of high DNA methylation in wild-type ES cells, suggesting that DNA methylation prevents H3K27me3 deposition locally and at megabase scale. Our strategy provides an unique way of investigating global interdependencies between DNA methylation and other chromatin features. ChIP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) is followed by bisulfite conversion and deep sequencing to directly assess DNA methylation levels in captured chromatin fragments (ChIP-BS-seq). We used ChIP-BS-seq to study the potential global cross-talk between H3K27me3 and DNA methylation, which are both linked to repression. First, we used capturing of methylated DNA, followed by bisulfite-deep sequencing (MethylCap-BS-seq). Genomic DNA isolated from normal and tumor colon tissues was used for MethylCap-BS-seq as well as for conventional MethylCap-seq experiments. Second, we performed ChIP-BS-seq on H3K27me3, using HCT116 colon carcinoma cells. Third, to further study the relevance of the observations, we generated genome-wide profiles for H3K27me3 and DNA methylation by conventional ChIP-seq and MethylCap-seq, and RNA-seq, respectively. Finally, we performed H3K27me3-ChIP-BS-seq and MethylCap-seq on wild-type mouse ES cells as well as Dnmt-triple-knockout (TKO) mouse ES cells.

Project description:Histone acetylation and deposition of H2A.Z variant are integral aspects of active transcrip-tion. In Drosophila, the single DOMINO chromatin regulator complex is thought to combine both activities via an unknown mechanism. Here we show that alternative isoforms of the DOMINO nucleosome remodeling ATPase, DOM-A and DOM-B, directly specify two distinct multi-subunit complexes. Both complexes are necessary for transcriptional regulation but through different mechanisms. The DOM-B complex incorporates H2A.V (the fly ortholog of H2A.Z) genome-wide in an ATP-dependent manner, like the yeast SWR1 complex. The DOM-A complex, instead, functions as an ATP-independent histone acetyltransferase com-plex similar to the yeast NuA4, targeting lysine 12 of histone H4. Our work provides an in-structive example of how different evolutionary strategies lead to similar functional separation. In yeast and humans, nucleosome remodeling and histone acetyltransferase complexes orig-inate from gene duplication and paralog specification. Drosophila generates the same diversi-ty by alternative splicing of a single gene.

Project description:We added an oligonucleotide to the 5′ end of RNA fragments —5′ marker— to differentiate between truncated and read–through cDNAs. By applying the protocol to PTBP1 and eIF4A3 iCLIP, we determined that the start sites of read–through cDNAs are enriched in adenosines, while the truncated cDNAs preferentially contained thymidines at their starts.
