Project description:Missense point mutations in the TP53 gene are frequent genetic alterations in human tumor tissue and cell lines derived thereof. Mutant p53 (mutp53) proteins have lost sequence-specific DNA binding, but have retained the ability to interact in a structure-selective manner with non-B DNA and to act as regulators of transcription. To identify functional binding sites of mutp53, we established a small library of genomic sequences bound by p53R273H in U251 human glioblastoma cells using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Mutp53 binding to isolated DNA fragments confirmed the specificity of the ChIP. The mutp53 bound DNA sequences are rich in repetitive DNA elements, which are dispersed over non-coding DNA regions. Stable down-regulation of mutp53 expression strongly suggested that mutp53 binding to genomic DNA is functional. We identified the PPARGC1A and FRMD5 genes as p53R273H targets regulated by binding to intronic and intra-genic sequences. We propose a model that attributes the oncogenic functions of mutp53 to its ability to interact with intronic and intergenic non-B DNA sequences and modulate gene transcription via re-organization of chromatin. For the study of the consequences of mutant p53 (R273H) knockdown on gene expression, total RNA from parental U251 glioblastoma cells and UsiA12 clone was prepared from two independent cell culture experiments (biological replicates) and processed for microarray-based profiling of gene expression. UsiA12 clone was derived from the U251 cells transfected with the pSuper-p53 and pCI-neo vectors.
Project description:RPL13 was identified to be downregulated in brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To explore the involved pathways in response to RPL13 reduction, we knockdownRPL13 using siRNA in U251 cell line with a stably expressed mutant APP (K670N/M671L, U251-APP cells). RNA-seq (by IlluminaHiseq 4000) and following analyses were then performed to detect genes whose expression were influenced by RPL13 knockdown.
Project description:The objective of the study was to examine the gene expression changes in glioma cell line U87 and U251 with LAMP2A knockdown. There were 15 samples in total- U87-1, U87-2, U87-3, U87-1812-1, U87-1812-2, U87-1812-3, U251-1, U251-2, U251-3, U251-1812-1, U251-1812-2, U251-1812-3, U251-1813-1, U251-1813-2, and U251-1813-3. U87-1 to U87-3 and U251--1 to U251-3 were used as the control groups (CON). U87-1812-1 to U871812-3, U251-1812-1 to U251-1812-3, and U251-1813-1 to U251-1813-3 were used as the experimental groups (shLAMP2A-1 and shLAMP2A-2). The total RNA of each sample was extracted from the stable transfected glioma cells by using TRIzol reagent. Then the RNA samples were processed for high throughput transcriptome sequencing on Illumina HiSeq 3000 platform. There were two types of libraries: the circRNA, mRNA, and lncRNA were all constructed by removing rRNA (one library, three types of RNA were analyzed together), and the insert fragment was about 300bp; the small RNA was constructed and analyzed separately, mainly microRNA of about 22bp. Results: among 60612 cleaned mRNAs, 781 were differentially expressed in U87-1812 group compared with U87 group, 146 were differentially expressed in U251-1812 group compared with U251 group, 43 were differentially expressed in U251-1813 group compared with U251 group (padj ≤ 0.05 and expression change ≥2 fold). The differential expressed genes distributed in all chromosomes. Functional annotation with GO and KEGG enrichment revealed the top functional groups including inflammation, DNA replication, cell adhesion, TNF, IL17, and axon guidance signaling pathways.
