Project description:By survival analysis of breast cancer patients, JMJD6 was found to be significantly associated with poor prognosis. Over-expression and knock-down of JMJD6 in breast cancer cell lines suggested a role in proliferation. In order to study the transcriptional events that occur following JMJD6 expression changes, siRNA-mediated knock-down of JMJD6 was performed in MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 and stable over-expression of JMJD6 was performed in MCF-7. There are 2 different siRNA-mediated knock-downs of JMJD6 with 2 biological replicates in MCF-7 and MDA-MB231; 3 clones of JMJD6 over-expression with 3 biological replicates in MCF-7. The control for the knock-downs is scrambled siRNA-treated MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 and the control for JMJD6 over-expression is empty vector over-expression in MCF-7.

Project description:MDA-MB231 cells were transfected with control vector, RAI2-overexpression vector, or vector with RAI2-4A, which has a mutated interaction domain w.r.t. CtBP/CtBP2
Project description:MDA-MB231 cells were transfected with control vector, RAI2-overexpression vector, or vector with RAI2-4A, which has a mutated interaction domain w.r.t. CtBP/CtBP2 Three replicates each of control condition, RAI2 overexpression or RAI2-4A overexpression.
Project description:To determine the absolute copy number of proteins in MDA-MB231 breast cancer cells, we employed IBAQ mediated absolute quantification of proteins based on (Schwanhäusser et al., Nature, 2011), with some modifications. Maqquant calculated iBAQ values were calibrated using spike-in standards, and used to calculate copy numbers for each identified protein within the dataset. Copy numbers for a total of 3,584 proteins were calculated in MDA-MB231 cells.
Project description:G9a is an H3K9m2 methyltransferase, which is critical in controlling gene suppression and DNA methylation. We used microarray analysis to identify the target genes that are regulated by G9a in MDA-MB231 cells, in which E-cadherin is silenced. G9a expression was stably knocked-down in MDA-MB231 cells. RNA from this clone and parental (control) cells were purified for microarray analysis.
Project description:To define and compare the interactomes of the RNA binding protein HNRNPC in poorly vs. efficiently metastatic breast adenocarcinoma cells, we carried out immunoprecipitation of endogenous HNRNPC from parental MDA-MB231 cells vs. its highly metastatic isogenic derivate, the MDA-MB231-LM2 cells. We used a non-specific MOUSE IgG IP from each line as control. Each IP was performed in triplicate, and analysed by LC-MS/MS, on a Thermo Q-Exactive-plus instrument.
