Project description:ASH-1 orthologs are H3K36-specific methyltransferases that are conserved from fungi to humans but are poorly understood, in part because they are typically essential for viability. Here we examine the H3K36 methylation pathway of Neurospora crassa, which we find has just two H3K36 methyltransferases, ASH-1 and RNA polymerase II-associated SET-2. Our investigation of the interplay between SET-2 and ASH-1 uncovered a regulatory mechanism connecting ASH-1-catalyzed H3K36 methylation to repression of poorly transcribed genes. Our findings provide new insight into ASH-1 function, H3K27me2/3 establishment, and repression at facultative heterochromatin.

Project description:Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) plays an essential role in metabolism and inflammatory. However, the role of FABP4 in alcoholic steatohepatitis (ASH) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the function of FABP4 and the underlying mechanisms in the progression of ASH.
Project description:We performed RNA-seq and proteomics on naturally infested green ash (F. pennsylvanica) trees at low, medium and high levels of increasing emerald ash borer (A. planipennis) infestation. Our integrative analysis of the RNA-Seq and proteomics data identified 14 proteins and 4 transcripts that contribute most to the difference between highly infested and low infested trees.
