Project description:Comparison of transcriptome of high differentiation-inducible murine erythroleukemia cells and low differentiation-inducible murine erythroleukemia cells
Project description:To promote the development and understanding of the in vitro erythroleukemia model, we analyzed the transcriptomes of mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells prior to and after erythroid-like differentiation induced by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). A total of 348 protein-coding genes, including many known erythroid-enriched genes such as hemoglobin and heme synthesis genes, were upregulated upon erythroid-like induction in MEL cells
Project description:We compared the transcriptomes of ES cell derived erythroid progentor cells (ES-EP) and murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells stably transfected with Gata-1 fused to ER.
Project description:Murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells are differentiated by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO）, hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA） or trichostatin A (TSA） treatment. We selsected high differentiation-inducible (HD) and low differentiation-inducible (LD)-MEL cells by recloning of original MEL cells. We screened erythroid differentiation related-genes to compare transcriptome of HD and LD-MEL cells.

Project description:Introgressed variants from other species can be an important source of genetic variation because they may arise rapidly, can include multiple mutations on a single haplotype, and have often been pretested by selection in the species of origin. Although introgressed alleles are generally deleterious, several studies have reported introgression as the source of adaptive alleles-including the rodenticide-resistant variant of Vkorc1 that introgressed from Mus spretus into European populations of Mus musculus domesticus. Here, we conducted bidirectional genome scans to characterize introgressed regions into one wild population of M. spretus from Spain and three wild populations of M. m. domesticus from France, Germany, and Iran. Despite the fact that these species show considerable intrinsic postzygotic reproductive isolation, introgression was observed in all individuals, including in the M. musculus reference genome (GRCm38). Mus spretus individuals had a greater proportion of introgression compared with M. m. domesticus, and within M. m. domesticus, the proportion of introgression decreased with geographic distance from the area of sympatry. Introgression was observed on all autosomes for both species, but not on the X-chromosome in M. m. domesticus, consistent with known X-linked hybrid sterility and inviability genes that have been mapped to the M. spretus X-chromosome. Tract lengths were generally short with a few outliers of up to 2.7 Mb. Interestingly, the longest introgressed tracts were in olfactory receptor regions, and introgressed tracts were significantly enriched for olfactory receptor genes in both species, suggesting that introgression may be a source of functional novelty even between species with high barriers to gene flow.
Project description:We compared the transcriptomes of ES cell derived erythroid progentor cells (ES-EP) and murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells stably transfected with Gata-1 fused to ER. RNA was isolated from duplicate proliferating cultures of MEL and ES-EP using Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST.

Project description:The importance of unanchored Ub in innate immunity has been shown only for a limited number of unanchored Ub-interactors. We investigated what additional cellular factors interact with unanchored Ub and whether unanchored Ub plays a broader role in innate immunity. To identify unanchored Ub-interacting factors from murine lungs, we used His-tagged recombinant poly-Ub chains as bait. These chains were mixed with lung tissue lysates and protein complexes were isolated with Ni-NTA beads. Sample elutions were subjected to mass spectrometry (LC-MSMS) analysis.
