Project description:Environmental influences such as infections and dietary changes strongly affect a host’s microbiota. In the steady state, however, host genetics may influence the microbiota composition, as suggested by the greater similarity between the microbiomes of identical twin pairs compared to non-identical twins. Understanding the role of polymorphic mechanisms in regulating the commensal communities is complicated by the variability of human genomes and microbiomes, and by microbial sensitivity to the environment. Animal studies allow genetic modifications, but are also sensitive to influences known as ‘cage’ or ‘legacy’ effects. Here, we analyzed ex-germ-free mice of various genetic backgrounds, including immunodeficient and Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)-congenic strains repopulated with identical input microbiota. We found that the host’s genetic polymorphic mechanisms did indeed affect the gut microbiome and that both innate (e.g. anti-microbial peptides, complement, pentraxins and enzymes affecting microbial survival), as well as adaptive (both MHC-dependent and MHC-independent) pathways influenced the microbiota. These polymorphic mechanisms regulated only a limited number of microbial lineages (independently of their abundance). In addition, our comparative analyses suggested that some microbes might benefit from the specific immune responses that they elicit.

Project description:Polymorphic integrations of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) have been previously detected in mouse and human genomes. While most are inert, a subset is capable of influencing the activity of the host genes. However, the molecular mechanism underlying how such elements affect the epigenome and transcriptome and their roles in driving intra-specific variation remain unclear. Here, utilizing wildtype murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs) derived from distinct genetic backgrounds, we discovered a polymorphic MMERGLN element capable of regulating H3K27ac enrichment, transcription and higher-order chromatin structure of neighboring loci. We demonstrated that this polymorphic element enhanced the neighboring Klhdc4 gene’s expression in cis, which in turn altered activity of downstream stress response genes. The results suggest that the polymorphic ERV-derived cis-regulatory element contribute to strain-specific phenotypes from particular stimuli. Moreover, we identified thousands of potential polymorphic ERVs in mESCs from both strains and illustrated their potential to regulate nearby histone modifications and transcription. Overall, our findings show the mechanism of how polymorphic ERVs can shape the epigenome and transcriptional networks that give rise to phenotypic divergence between individuals.

Project description:We developed a novel approach combining next generation sequencing, bioinformatics and mass spectrometry to assess the impact of non-MHC polymorphisms on the repertoire of MHC I-associated peptides (MIPs). We compared the genomic landscape of MIPs eluted from B lymphoblasts of two MHC-identical siblings and determined that MIPs mirror the genomic frequency of non-synonymous polymorphisms but they behave as recessive traits at the surface level. Moreover, we showed that 11.7% of the MIP coding exome is polymorphic at the population level. Our method provides fundamental insights into the relation between the genomic self and the immune self and accelerates the discovery of polymorphic MIPs (also known as minor histocompatibility antigens), which play a major role in allo-immune responses.

Project description:We report the transcriptome data produced from isogenic polymorphic p53 codon 72 iPSCs under doxorubicin treatment. By inserting BAC DNA into one allele of the heterozygous polymorphic p53 codon 72, each clone expressed a p53 protein encoding P72 or R72 from another allele in which it was not inserted. The transcriptional regulation of p53 target genes was compared between the isogenic lines under doxorubicin treatment.
