Chip-Seq of mouse Ago-1 and TRIM32-bound small RNAs from E14.5 brain.

ABSTRACT: In the mouse neocortex, neural progenitor cells generate neurons through repeated rounds of asymmetric cell division. How distinct fates are established in their daughter cells is unclear. We show here that the TRIM-NHL protein TRIM32 segregates asymmetrically during progenitor division and induces neuronal differentiation in one of the two daughter cells. TRIM32 is highly expressed in differentiating neurons. In both horizontally and vertically dividing progenitor cells, TRIM32 distribution becomes polarized in mitosis so that the protein is enriched in one of the two daughter cells. While TRIM32 overexpression induces cell cycle exit and neuronal differentiation, TRIM32 RNAi causes both daughter cells to proliferate and prevents the initiation of a neuronal differentiation program . TRIM32 ubiquitinates and degrades the transcription factor c-Myc but also binds Argonaute-1 and thereby increases the activity of specific micro-RNAs. We show that Let-7 is one of the TRIM32 targets and is required and sufficient for neuronal differentiation. Our data suggest that the asymmetric segregation of a micro RNA regulator controls self renewal in the mammalian brain. Experiment Overall Design: small RNA from total mouse brain, Ago-1 and TRIM32 IPs were cloned and sequenced using 454 GS FLX system.

In the mouse neocortex, neural progenitor cells generate both differentiating neurons and daughter cells that maintain progenitor fate. Here, we show that the TRIM-NHL protein TRIM32 regulates protein degradation and microRNA activity to control the balance between those two daughter cell types. In both horizontally and vertically dividing progenitors, TRIM32 becomes polarized in mitosis and is concentrated in one of the two daughter cells. TRIM32 overexpression induces neuronal differentiation ...[more]

Project description:One Âµg of total RNA from either an; individual rat or from a pooled sample was amplified and labeled with a; fluorescent dye (either Cy3 or Cy5) using the Low RNA Input Linear Amplification Labeling kit (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) following the manufacturerâ??s protocol. The amount and quality of the resulting fluorescently labeled cRNA was assessed using a Nanodrop ND-100 spectrophometer and an Agilent; Bioanalyzer. Equal amounts of Cy3- or Cy5-labeled cRNA were hybridized to the Agilent Rat Oligo Microarray (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Palo Alto, CA) for 17 hrs, prior to washing and scanning. Data was extracted from the resulting; images using Agilentâ??s Feature Extraction Software (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Palo Alto, CA). For day/night comparisons, two types of complementing hybridizations were performed: hepatic RNA from individual day rats was hybridized against a pool made up of RNA from 12 hour offset night rats, and RNA from individual night rats was hybridized against a pool made up of RNA from 12-hour offset day rats. Specifically, hepatic RNA samples from three individual day rats collected ten hours after light on (CT10) were hybridized against a pooled RNA sample composed of equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six night rats collected ten hrs after lights off (CT22); and RNA samples from three individual night rats collected at CT22 were hybridized against a pooled RNA sample composed of equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six day rats collected at CT10. This was replicated in a second study for a total of 24 hybridizations of 12 hour offset samples. For time of day comparisons, equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six; rats collected at each of four different times of the circadian day (CT4, CT10, C16 and CT22) were pooled. The two replicate studies thus resulted in 8 pools (two replicate pools/time point times four time points); each pool was hybridized against a Universal Rat Reference RNA Standard (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA).
