Measurement of variant surface glycoprotein mRNA using RNAseq

Project description:Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 bloodstream forms were cultured in HMI-11 medium. Total RNA was prepared using Qiagen RNAeasy kits for single sample RNAseq to estimate VSG mRNA abundance (and not to reconstruct the transcriptome). The cDNA libraries were prepared and sequenced at the Beijing Genomics Institute (Shenzhen, China). Polyadenylated RNA was purified from total RNA, converted to cDNA using random hexamer primers sheared and size selected for fragments ~200 bp in length using the Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation Kit v2. RNAseq of the resulting libraries was used for the determination of transcript abundances. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina Hiseq 2000 (Illumina, CA) platform and 90 base paired end reads obtained. Four samples were analysed: 1. Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 expressing VSG2 2. Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 expressing VSG6 3. Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 expressing VSG6 and a VSG2 transgender located in the active bloodstream expression site 28 days after electroporation 4. Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427 expressing VSG6 and a VSG2 transgender located in the active bloodstream expression site 44 days after electroporation.

The trypanosome Variant Surface Glycoprotein mRNA is stabilized by an essential unconventional RNA-binding protein

Project description:Salivarian trypanosomes cause human sleeping sickness and economically important livestock diseases, transmitted by Tsetse flies and replicating extracellularly throughout the life cycle. The surface of "bloodstream forms", which live within mammals, is coated by a monolayer of a Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG). Switching of the expressed VSG gene enables the parasites to evade adaptive immunity. Up until now, the mechanism by which VSG mRNA stability is maintained was unknown. To identify proteins specifically interacting with VSG mRNA (and alpha tubulin as control), we performed RNA-antisense purifications (RAP) following instructions published by McHugh et al. 2018 with some modifications.

TbSAP is a novel chromatin protein repressing metacyclic Variant Surface Glycoprotein expression sites in bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei

Project description:The African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei is a unicellular eukaryote, which relies on a protective Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG) coat for survival in the mammalian host. A single trypanosome has >2000 VSG genes and pseudogenes of which only one is expressed from one of ~15 telomeric bloodstream form expression sites (BESs). Infectious metacyclic trypanosomes present within the tsetse fly vector also express VSG from a separate set of telomeric metacyclic ESs (MESs). All MESs are silenced in bloodstream form T. brucei. As very little is known about how this is mediated, we performed a whole genome RNAi library screen to identify MES repressors. This allowed us to identify a novel SAP domain containing DNA binding protein which we called TbSAP. TbSAP is enriched at the nuclear periphery and binds both MESs and BESs. Knockdown of TbSAP in bloodstream form trypanosomes did not result in cells becoming more ‘metacyclic’-like. Instead, there was extensive global upregulation of transcripts including MES VSGs, VSGs within the silent VSG arrays as well as genes immediately downstream of BES promoters. TbSAP therefore appears to be a novel architectural chromatin protein playing an important role in silencing the extensive VSG repertoire of bloodstream form T. brucei.

A Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Surface N-Glycoprotein resource including New Markers, Extracellular Epitopes, and Drug Targets

Project description:Detailed knowledge of cell surface proteins for isolating well-defined populations of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) would significantly enhance their characterization and translational potential. Normal H9 human embryonic stem cells and the KB3 human induced pluripotent stem cell lines were analyzed by Cell Surface Capture Technology, and in parallel transcript profiles from five independent samples (i.e., Replicas 1-5 for each) were performed to facilitate protein and transcriptomic comparisons. The study compared gene expression profiles of pluripotent stem cells with Cell Surface Capture technology generated N-glycoprotein surfaceome analyses of the same cell types.

The Major Surface Glycoprotein of Pneumocystis murina Does not Activate Dendritic Cells

Project description:The major surface glycoprotein (Msg) is the most abundant surface protein of Pneumocystis species. Given that Msg is present on both the cyst and trophic form of Pneumocystis, and dendritic cells play a critical role in initiating host immune responses, we undertook studies to examine activation of bone marrow-derived myeloid dendritic cells by Msg purified from P. murina. Incubation of dendritic cells with Msg did not lead to increased expression of CD40, CD80, CD86, or MHCII, or increased secretion of any of 10 cytokines. Microarray analysis identified very few differentially expressed genes. In contrast, LPS activated dendritic cells by all of these assays. However, Msg did bind to mouse mannose macrophage receptor and human DC-SIGN, two C-type lectins expressed by dendritic cells that are important in recognition of pathogen-associated high mannose glycoproteins. Deglycosylation of Msg demonstrated that this binding was dependent on glycosylation. These studies suggest that Pneumocystis has developed a mechanism to avoid activation of dendritic cells, potentially by the previously identified loss of genes that are responsible for the high level of protein mannosylation found in other fungi.
