Project description:Apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (APOBEC3B, A3B) is a key molecular driver inducing mutations in multiple human cancer. A3B belongs to the APOBEC3 enzyme family, which consists seven closely related DNA deaminases that catalyse cytosine-to-uracil (C>U) editing of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Here, we adopted single-strand DNA protein-immunoprecipitation sequencing (SPI-seq) to capture the ssDNA bound by flag-tagged A3B protein. Quantification on sequence reads was carried out to investigate the effect of 17-beta estradiol (E2) on A3B binding to DNA.

APOBEC3B belongs to the APOBEC3 enzyme family, which consists seven closely related DNA deaminases that catalyse cytosine-to-uracil (C>U) editing of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). In order to investigate the genomic binding sites of APOBEC3B, high through-put sequencing experiments were conducted using DNA samples acquired by standard chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and ssDNA protein immunoprecipitation (SPI) samples. Substrate preference by APOBEC3B were characterised by comparing these results.
Project description:Carboxy-terminally tagged MOZ (Flag-V5-BIO tagged) was detected by ChIP-seq using anti-V5 antibody (Sigma, A7345) to precipitate chromatin associated with MOZ
Project description:Isolation of IMP1 bound mRNAs. Flag-tagged IMP1 was expressed in HEK293 cells. Flag tagged IMP1 was immunoprecipitated and mRNAs isolated. As controls HEK293 cells that do not express Flag-tagged IMP1 was included.
Project description:RNA-sequencing of H3.3-G34R and H3.3-WT HGG cells was performed to uncover transcriptomic differences related to the presence of H3.3-G34R mutation, using human cells obtained from a patient harboring pHGG and stably tranfected with 3X-FLAG-tagged wild type H3.3 or a 3X-FLAG-tagged H3.3 harboring the G34R mutation.
