Project description:NAT10-catalyzed N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) has emerged as a vital post-transcriptional modulator on the coding transcriptome by promoting mRNA stability. To explore the transcriptome-wide profile of ac4C modification, we mapped the locations of ac4C modification on wild-type (WT) hESCs and NAT10 KD hESCs by high-throughput ac4C RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (ac4C-RIP-seq).

Project description:N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C), a conserved chemical modification in eukaryotic prokaryotes that is catalyzed by the N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) enzyme, plays a crucial role in promoting mRNA stability and translation. However, the biological function and mechanisms of NAT10-mediated ac4C in human cancer were poorly defined. In order to investigate the regulatory mechanism of NAT10 in gastric cancer, we performed ac4C RIP-seq(acRIP-seq) analysis in AGS cells with NAT10 knockout compared with control in two repeats.
Project description:We performedacRIP-seq between control CRC cells and CRC cells with NAT10 knockdown to identify NAT10 mediates mRNA ac4C modification
Project description:Ac4C-binding RNAs were analyzed by imprinting RNA-sequencing of anti-Ac4C antibody-retrieved complexes from macrophages lysate. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RIP-seq of peritoneal macrophages incubated with IFN-G
Project description:We show that non-toxic exogenous palmitate uptake in MCF7 cells promotes NAT10 expression and NAT10-dependent ac4C RNA modification. It was previously reported that NAT10 modulates the addition of ac4C on RNA transcripts in normal and cancer conditions. However, no study report the impact of NAT10 in palmitate driven cells. Here we performed RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (RIP-seq) in palmitate loaded MCF7 knockdown with NAT10 siRNA. Based on the pathways and enrichment landscape identified. We found that ac4C peaks of fatty acid metabolic genes including ELOVL6, ACSL1, ACSL3, ACSL4, ACADSB and ACAT1 were significantly decreased upon knockdown with NAT10 siRNA. Overall, our results revealed the impact of NAT10 as a regulator of fatty acid metabolism in ac4C-dependent manner
Project description:To identify the target mRNAs of the m6A reader protein YTHDF2 in mouse hippocampus, we carired out anti YTHDF2 RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) followed by RNA-sequencencing. Using EZ-Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Millipore), RNA from P40 wild type mouse hippocampus was pulled down by rabbit polyclonal anti-YTHDF2 (proteintech) and then sequenced on Illumina Novaseq 6000. The filtered reads were aligned to the mouse reference genome (GRCm38) using BWA mem (v 0.7.12).Then the MACS2 (version 2.1.0) peak calling software was used to identify regions of IP enrichment over background, followed by the motif detected by Homer (Heinz et al., 2010). Peak related genes are then confirmed by PeakAnnotator. Different peak analysis was based on the fold enrichment of peaks of different experiments. A peak was determined as different peak when the odds ratio between two groups was more than 2. Using the same method, genes associated with different peaks were identified. Finally, Biological replicates of anti-YTHDF2 RIP-Seq identified 408 mRNAs transcripts. This study provides gene lists which shows mRNA binding with YTHDF2 in mouse hippocampus.
Project description:As a newly identified mRNA modification, the regulation of ac4C remains largely unexplored. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that specifically binds to ac4C modification and mediate downstream cellular activities (readers) have not been reported yet. We synthesized acetylated and non-acetylated RNA probes by in vitro transcription. The sequences of the probes were segments of FUS and 18s rRNA, which contain ac4C sites as reported. A biotin-RNA pulldown assay and mass spectrometry were performed with HEK 293T cell lysates.
