Project description:The complex of NF90 and NF45 is known to participate in transcriptional regulation, mRNA stabilization and microRNA biogenesis in vitro. However, the physiological function of the NF90-NF45 complex is still unclear. To elucidate its functions, we generated NF90-NF45 double transgenic (dbTg) mice. Robust expression of NF90 and NF45 was detected in skeletal muscle. As mentioned above, NF90-NF45 complex is involved in regulation of genes via transcription and RNA metabolism. To identify genes regulated by NF90-NF45, we performed comprehensive analyses of mRNA expression in quadriceps of wild-type (WT) and NF90-NF45 dbTg mice. mRNA expression profile in quadriceps comparing WT and NF90-NF45 dbTg mice.

Project description:Our previous study has showed that complex of NF90 and nuclear factor 45 (NF45) (NF90-NF45) inhibits miRNA biogenesis through negative regulation of primary-miRNA processing step. On the other hand, miRNAs, the biogenesis of which is regulated by NF90-NF45 in hepatocellular carcinoma, are not clear. Thus, to identify the miRNAs, we performed a miRNA array using RNAs extracted from control Huh7 cells and the cells depleted of NF90. Comparison of miRNA expression profile in one non-targeting control siRNA (siNTC)- or two independent siNF90-treated Huh7 cells.

Project description:While years of investigation have elucidated many aspects of embryonic stem cell (ESC) regulation, the contributions of post-transcriptional and translational mechanisms to the pluripotency network remain largely unexplored. In particular, little is known in ESCs about the function of RNA binding proteins (RBPs), the protein agents of post-transcriptional regulation. We performed an unbiased RNAi screen of RBPs in an ESC differentiation assay and identified two related genes, NF45 (Ilf2) and NF90/NF110 (Ilf3), whose knockdown promoted differentiation to an epiblast-like state. Characterization of NF45 KO, NF90+NF110 KO, and NF110 KO ESCs showed that loss of NF45 or NF90+NF110 impaired ESC proliferation and led to dysregulated differentiation down embryonic lineages. Additionally, we found that NF45 and NF90/NF110 physically interact and influence the expression of each other at different levels of regulation. Globally across the transcriptome, NF45 KO ESCs and NF90+NF110 KO ESCs show similar expression changes. Moreover, NF90+NF110 RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP)-seq in ESCs suggested that NF90/NF110 directly regulate proliferation, differentiation, and RNA-processing genes. Our data support a model in which NF45, NF90, and NF110 operate in feedback loops that enable them, through both overlapping and independent targets, to help balance the push and pull of pluripotency and differentiation cues.
Project description:We found that knock down of NF90 and its binding factor, NF45, complex leads to retardation of growth in Beta-TC-6 cells, a pancreatic beta cell line. To uncover molecular mechanisms for the growth retardation in Beta-TC-6 cells depleted of NF90-NF45, we performed comprehensive analysis of gene expression using microarray.
