Project description:We investigated the genomewide binding pattern of prevalent p53 gain-of-function (GOF) mutants by ChIP-seq, in a panel of breast cancer cell lines. We assessed the genomewide changes of H3K4me3 upon GOF p53 knockdown in MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells bearing the p53 R273H mutation. This study uses ChIP-seq of H3K4me3 and histone H3 in wild-type or p53 R172H knock-in MEFs. Additionally, this study examines the transcriptome of wild-type or p53 R172H knock-in MEFs using polyA+ RNA-seq.

Project description:A total of 58 genes were up-regulated (> 1.5 fold-change) while 117 genes were down-regulated Microarray experiments were performed in duplicate as follows: MDA-MB-468 cells were transduced with lentiviral shRNA targeting endogenous p53-R273H mutant (p53si-1)or a non-targeting shRNA (NS). Total RNA from cells was extracted using Qiagen RNA isolation kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA) according to the manufacturersâ protocol. RNA purity was examined by spectrophotometric determination at 260/280 nm. The microarray hybridizations were carried out using the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.
Project description:The tumor suppressor p53 exerts its role mainly as a transcription factor. The TP53 gene, which encodes the p53 protein, is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancers, particularly triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Variations in the TP53 gene occur mainly in exons 5–8 and result in missense mutations in the DNA-binding domain of the p53 protein that alter DNA binding specificity. To identify the target genes of mutant p53, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by DNA microarray (ChIP-chip). Briefly, the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-468 containing the endogenous p53-R273H mutation (the arginine residue at position 273 is mutated to a histidine) was cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde and ultrasonically sheared to generate chromatin fragments in a range of 200∼1000 bp. An aliquot of the sheared chromatin was kept as input, and the other chromatin was precipitated with a p53 monoclonal antibody. DNA was purified from the precipitated chromatin and the unprecipitated chromatin (i.e., input), amplified, and labeled with Cy5 (ChIP DNA) or Cy3 (input DNA). Cy5- and Cy3-labeled DNA samples were cohybridized with the NimbleGen Human ChIP-chip 2.1 M Deluxe Promoter Array. The raw and analyzed data are described in this article. They are useful for identifying target genes and consensus binding motifs of the p53 R273H mutant and for further clarifying the molecular mechanism underlying the oncogenic activity of the p53 mutant.
Project description:Mutant p53 can acquires oncogenic properties supporting tumor growth, metastases and chemoresistance, by reprogramming cancer cell transcriptome, proteome and metabolome. To investigate what is the gene expression network regulated by mutant p53, we silenced its expression in MDA-MB-231 Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) cell line. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of MDA-MB 231.
Project description:Mutant p53 can acquires oncogenic properties supporting tumor growth, metastases and chemoresistance, by reprogramming cancer cell transcriptome, proteome and metabolome. To investigate what is the gene expression network regulated by mutant p53 in condition of limited amino acids availability, we silenced mutant p53 expression in MDA-MB-231 Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) cell line, grown in medium with 100% and medium with 25% of amino acids. We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of MDA-MB 231.
Project description:This study was performed according to protein pull-down assay using GFP-coated beads in MDA-MB-468 cells expressing GFP/ZC3H12D fusion protein, and then the precipitated proteins were isolated by running SDS-PAGE and silver staining, and identified by high resolution mass spectrometry.This study was performed according to RNA pull-down assay using biotin-labeled WT RNA probe (with stem-loop structure) or mutant RNA probe (without stem-loop structure) and streptavidin-coated Dynabeads in human breast tumor cell MDA-MB-468, and then the pulled down proteins were isolated by SDS-PAGE and silver staining, and identified by high resolution mass spectrometry.
Project description:Treatment with Aurora inhibitors has been shown to induce diverse biological responses in different tumor cell lines, in part depending on their p53 status. To characterize at the transcriptional level the effects of Danusertib we analyzed by microarray different tumor cell lines, with WT or mutant p53 status, that showed differential cell cycle response upon drug treatment. We analyzed the effects of Danusertib treatment in different tumor cell lines derived from ovary (A2780, p53WT), breast (MCF-7, p53WT and MDA-MB-468, p53 mut) and colon carcinoma (HCT116, p53 WT and Colo205, p53 mut). Cell line were treated (TRT) or left unreated (CTRL) for 24 hrs with 1 uM Danusertib.
Project description:The goal for this experiment was to analyze how knockdown of homeobox transcription factor Meox1 altered functional and mechanist biology of p53 and PTEN deficient triple negative breast cancer in vitro cell lines of claudin-low BT-549 and basal-like MDA-MB-468.
