Project description:RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 2 (RDR2) is a crucial regulator of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Recentily RDR2 was reported to regulate expression of long intergenic noncoding RNAs. Here we used ATH lincRNA v1 expression arrays to compare lincRNA expression in inflorescence tissues of rdr2-1 and WT. Among the 4,634 lincRNAs detected we found that more than 34% of them were differentially expressed, including 676 lincRNAs that were up-regulated and 890 down-regulated in rdr2-1.

Project description:Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNA) transcribed from intergenic regions of eukaryotic genomes play important roles in key biological processes; yet, plant lincRNAs remain poorly characterized. Here we profiled lincRNA expression in inflorescences, leaves and roots using ATH lincRNA v1 array. we found 92% lincRNAs could be detected in at least 2 ATH lincRNA v1 arrays and majority of the lincRNAs were expressed at levels higher than those of pri-miRNAs but lower than those of mRNAs.Using a cut-off of 2-fold change, we identified 149 lincRNAs preferentially expressed in inflorescences, 232 in leaves and 164 in roots. Nine arrays were hybridized with RNAs from inflorescences, leaves and roots with 3 biological replicates.

Project description:Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) transcribed from intergenic regions play important roles in key biological processes.Analysis of published transcriptom datasets suggested some lincRNAs may be regulated by SERRATE,CBP20 and CBP80 in Arabidopsis. To further investigate the regulation, we use Arabidopsis lincRNA arrays v1 to detect lincRNA expression in se-2 and cbp20/80 double mutants.We found the expression levels of 940 lincRNAs (20%) out of the 4,634 lincRNAs with probes in array were significantly alerted in all mutants (P-value of eBays ANOVA < 0.05 & fold change of signal intensity > 2). This group included 525 up-regulated and 415 down-regulated lincRNAs. Seedlings(Col-0), Seedlings(se-2), Seedlings(cbp20,80 double mutant) x 3 biological replicates

Project description:It has become clear that long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) are an important layer of genome regulation. Thousands have been identified in mammals, yet only a few have been tested through genetic ablation in animal models. Of the few that have, many yields weak to unobservable phenotypes, raising the question of their in vivo relevance. To more broadly investigate the functional relevance of lincRNAs in physiological conditions, we developed a collection of 18 lincRNA knockout strains. We found that two knockout strains, linc-Sox2 and linc-Foxf1a (Fendrr), exhibit perinatal lethal phenotypes in addition to multiple developmental abnormalities. Notably, in depth analysis of a third mutant strain, linc-Brn1b-/-, revealed defects in brain development, with distinct abnormalities in class-specific generation of upper layer II/III-IV neurons in the neocortex. Thus far, we found at least 6 of 18 mutant strains exhibit distinct developmental or lethality phenotypes. Therefore, this study demonstrates that lincRNAs are required for life and play critical roles during mammalian development, highlighting the importance of studying them further to better understand the molecular mechanisms leading to disease. Minimum 2 replicates each of select wild type and lincRNA knockout embryonic and postnatal tissues for three distinct lincRNA knockout mouse strains.

Project description:To identify aberrantly expressed long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) in bladder cancer tissues compared with normal adjacent tissues, we have employed microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify lincRNAs that may play important roles in bladder cancer origin and progression. Samples of fresh frozen cancer tissues, together with normal adjacent tissues (3 cm away from the tumor), were obtained during surgical resection, and total RNA was extracted for microarray analysis. Expression of six mRNAs and lincRNAs (E2F1, CCNE2, CCNB1, lincRNA:chr1:205404014-205407007, lincRNA:chr7:130723313-130727663, lincRNA:chr4:15669186-15683175) from this signature was quantified in the same RNA samples by real-time PCR, confirming good quality of the microarray analysis. Data in the matrix are log2 transformed. Three pairs of fresh frozen bladder cancer tissues and corresponding normal adjacent tissues were used in the microarray analysis.

Project description:Recently, more than a thousand large intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been reported. These RNAs are evolutionarily conserved in mammalian genomes and thus presumably function in diverse biological processes. Here, we report the identification of lincRNAs that are regulated by p53. One of these lincRNAs (lincRNA-p21) serves as a repressor in p53-dependent transcriptional responses. Inhibition of lincRNA-p21 affects the expression of hundreds of gene targets enriched for genes normally repressed by p53. The observed transcriptional repression by lincRNA-p21 is mediated through the physical association with hnRNP-K. This interaction is required for proper genomic localization of hnRNP-K at repressed genes and regulation of p53 mediated apoptosis. We propose a model whereby transcription factors activate lincRNAs that serve as key repressors by physically associating with repressive complexes and modulating their localization to sets of previously active genes.

Project description:Long intervening noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) are prevalent genes with poorly understood functions. Here we discover a pathway of lincRNA-regulated proteolysis. The enhancer-like lincRNA HOTTIP extends the half-life of its binding protein WDR5, a subunit of the MLL H3K4 methylase complex, resulting in increased chromatin occupancy and gene activation. LincRNA-mediated stabilization requires direct RNA-protein interaction in a long RNA context, and blocks turnover at a step after target protein poly-ubiquitination. We elucidate the lincRNA binding interface on WDR5. A WDR5 mutant that selectively abrogates lincRNA binding becomes unstable, and is defective in gene activation, maintenance of histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation, and embryonic stem cell self renewal. The ability to modulate protein turnover may allow lincRNAs to control the lifespan of molecular interactions at chromatin and elsewhere, broadening their scope in epigenetics and cell fate control.

Gene expression analysis: To establish a differentiation signature for mouse V6.5 ES cells infected with anti mouse WDR5 shRNA, rescued with doxycycline inducible WDR5 WT or WDR5 F266A, total RNA was isolated in biologic duplicate from cells in different conditions and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse 430 2.0 arrays.

Project description:Numerous studies over the past decade have elucidated a substantial set of long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs). It has since become clear that lincRNAs constitute an important layer of genome regulation across a wide spectrum of species. Yet, the factors governing their evolution and origins remain relatively unexplored. One possible factor that may have shaped lincRNA biology are transposable elements (TEs). Here we set out to comprehensively characterize the TE content of lincRNAs relative to genomic averages and protein coding transcripts. Our analysis of the TE composition across 9241 human lincRNAs revealed that, in sharp contrast to protein coding genes, a striking majority (83%) of lincRNAs contain a TE, and TEs comprise 42% of lincRNA transcript sequences. LincRNA TE composition varies significantly from genomic averages, being depleted of LI and Alu elements and enriched for a broad class of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). Furthermore, specific TE families occur in biased positions and orientations within lincRNAs, particularly at their transcription start sites, suggesting a role in the origin of those lincRNAs. Finally, we find that TEs can drive gene expression regulation of lincRNAs—we observed a dramatic correlation between lincRNAs containing HERVH elements and almost exclusive expression in pluripotent cells. Conversely, those lincRNAs that are devoid of TEs are more highly expressed in testis. Collectively, TEs pervade lincRNAs and have shaped lincRNA evolution and function via bestowing tissue-specific expression from donated transcriptional regulatory signals. We extracted profiled the transcriptome expression polyadenylated mRNA-Seq. We then used these to reconstruct the transcriptome using de-novo assemblers and identify long non coding RNAs and their expression.
