Project description:Ribo-seq was performed by Novogene. Briefly, use RNase I to digest the unprotected RNA, leaving only the ribosome-protected mRNA fragments, and sequencing libraries were constructed and carried out on an Illumina Novaseq 6000 SE50.
Project description:Ribosome profiling with translation inhibitors reveals pervasive translation in murine ES cells. Ribosome profiling or stranded RNAseq (ribominus) with murine embryonic stem cells treated with either DMD-pateamineA, Puromycin, Harringtonine or vehicle (no drug control). Two replicates per condition.
Project description:Pathological growth of cardiomyocytes during hypertrophy is characterized by excess protein synthesis; however, the regulatory mechanism remains largely unknown. Using a neonatal rat ventricular myocyte (NRVMs) model, here we find that the expression of nucleosome assembly protein 1 like 5 (Nap1l5) is upregulated in phenylephrine (PE)-induced hypertrophy. Knockdown of Nap1l5 expression by siRNA significantly blocks cell size enlargement and pathological gene induction after PE treatment. In contrast, Adenovirus-mediated Nap1l5 overexpression significantly aggravates the pro-hypertrophic effects of PE on NRVMs. RNA-seq analysis reveals that Nap1l5 knockdown reverses the pro-hypertrophic transcriptome reprogramming after PE treatment. Whereas immune response is dominantly enriched in the upregulated genes, oxidative phosphorylation, cardiac muscle contraction and ribosome related pathways are remarkably enriched in the down-regulated genes. Although PRC2 and PRC1 are involved in Nap1l5-mediated gene regulation, Nap1l5 does not directly alter the levels of global histone methylations. However, puromycin incorporation assay shows that Nap1l5 is both necessary and sufficient to drive the increased protein synthesis rate in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. This is attributable to a direct regulation of ribosome assembly by Nap1l5. Our findings demonstrate a previously unrecognized role of Nap1l5 in translation control during cardiac hypertrophy.
Project description:Cardiomyocyte poly(A) RNA was sequenced from purified bulk cardiomyocytes collected from one male and female murine heart at postnatal day 2 (P2). Neonatal cardiomyocytes were isolated and purified (96% cardiomyocytes at P2) by Langendorff retrograde perfusion and immunomagnetic cell separation, respectively. We found evidence of sexual dimorphism with 9 differentially expressed genes (FDR<0.05) encoded on XY chromosomes in this RNA-Seq dataset.
Project description:Ribosome profiling and high-throughput sequencing provide unprecedented opportunities for the analysis of mRNA translation. Using this novel method, several studies have demonstrated the widespread role of short upstream reading frames in translational control as well as slower elongation at the beginning of open reading frames in response to stress. Based on the initial studies, the importance of adding or omitting translation inhibitors, such as cycloheximide, was noted as it markedly affected ribosome coverage profiles. For that reason, many recent studies omitted translation inhibitors in the culture medium. Here, we investigate the influence of ranging cycloheximide concentrations on ribosome profiles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and demonstrate that increasing the drug concentration can overcome some of the artifacts. We subjected cells to various manipulations and show that neither oxidative stress nor heat shock nor amino acid starvation affect translation elongation. Instead, the observations in the initial studies are the result of cycloheximide-inflicted artifacts. Likewise, we find little support for short upstream reading frames to be involved in wide-spread protein synthesis regulation under stress conditions. Our study highlights the need for better standardization of ribosome profiling methods. Ranging concentrations of cycloheximide and various stress contitions were tested with Ribo-seq
Project description:In the ribosome complex, tRNA is a critical element of mRNA translation. We reported a new technology for profiling ribosome-embedded tRNAs and their modifications. With the method, we generated a comprehensive survey of the quanity and quality of intra-ribosomal tRNAs (Ribo-tRNA-seq). Ribo-tRNA-seq can provide new insights on translation control mechanism in diverse biological contexts.

Project description:A transgenic line cmlc2:TRAP was made to express EGFP-fused ribosomal protein L10a (EGFP-L10a) in zebrafish cardiomyocytes. Then ribosome-associated RNAs were immuoprecipitated from uninjured and injured adult cmlc2:TRAP fish to determine the differential expression changes during zebrafish heart regeneration. A nine chip study with cardiomyocyte ribosome associated RNAs purified from three separate isolation of uninjured adult cmlc2:TRAP fish hearts, three separate isolation of 1 day post amupation (dpa) adult cmlc2:TRAP fish hearts, and three separate isolation of 7 dpa adult cmlc2:TRAP fish hearts.
