Project description:Breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and PALB2 have enigmatic roles in cellular growth and mammalian development. While these genes are essential for growth during early developmental programs, inactivation later in adulthood leads to increased growth and formation of tumors, leading to their designation as tumor suppressors. We performed genome-wide analysis assessing their chromatin residence and gene expression responsiveness using high throughput sequencing in breast epithelial cells. These experiments revealed a critical role for BRCA1 and PALB2 in transcriptional responsiveness to NF-kB, a crucial mediator of growth and inflammatory response during development and cancer. Importantly, we also uncovered a vital role for these proteins in response to retinoic acid (RA), a growth inhibitory signal in breast cancer cells, which may constitute the basis for their tumor suppressor activity. MCF-7 cells were infected with PALB2, BRCA1 and non targeting (SCR) shRNAs. After puromycin selection, cells were stimulated with 10microM Retinoic Acid (RA) for 24 hours

Project description:We investigated the genomic occupancy of INTS11, in normal condition and after stimulation of EGF. Total RNAPII was profiled in the presence or absence of INTS11, along with the Super Elongation Complex proteins AFF4 and ELL2. Additionally, we extensively examined the transcriptional response to EGF, before and after depletion of INTS11, using RNA-seq on ribosome-depleted total RNA and Global Run-on sequencing (GRO-seq). EGF stimulation of Hela cells, trasnfected with a control shRNA, INTS1 shRNA or INTS11 shRNA

Project description:The small nuclear RNA (snRNA)-activating protein complex (SNAPc) is a basal transcription factor that mediates the transcriptional activation of snRNAs. Here, we describe the genome-wide occupancy of the SNAPC1_and SNAPC4 subunits of SNAPc. While the SNAPC4 occupancy was in accord with the role for SNAPc in snRNA transcription, SNAPC1_displayed a broader genomic profile mirroring that of RNA polymerase II at highly active protein-coding genes. Our functional analysis revealed a role for SNAPC1_in regulation of both basal and activator-induced transcription of protein-coding genes. These studies expand the role for SNAPC1_beyond its regulation of snRNA transcription. EGF stimulation of Hela cells, transfected with a control sh (scr) or a SNAPC1_sh

Project description:The generation of genome-wide data derived from methylated DNA immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (MeDIP-Seq) has become a major tool for epigenetic studies in health and disease. The computational analysis of such data, however, still falls short on accuracy, sensitivity and speed. We propose a statistical method that is able to cope with the inherent complexity of MeDIP-Seq data and outperforms computation time of existing methods by orders of magnitude with similar performance. In order to demonstrate the computational approach, we have analysed alterations in DNA methylation during the differentiation of hESCs to definitive endoderm. We show improved correlation of normalized MeDIP-Seq data in comparison to available whole-genome bisulphite sequencing data and investigated the effect of differential methylation on gene expression. Furthermore, we analyzed the interplay between DNA-methylation, histone modifications, transcription factor binding, and show that in contrast to de-novo methylation, de-methylation is mainly associated with regions of low CpG densities. Total RNA obtained from three biological replicates of hESCs (passage 53, Control) and from three biological replicates of Activin-A induced differentiated hESCs (definitive endoderm (DE), Treatment)

Project description:Two independent protocols for deriving HLCs from hESCs and iPSCs were adopted and further characterization included immunocytochemistry, real-time RT-PCR, and in vitro functional assays. Comparative microarray-based gene expression profiling was conducted on these cells and compared to the transcriptomes of human fetal liver and adult liver progenitors. HLCs derived from hESCs and hiPSCs showed significant functional similarities, similar expression of genes important for liver physiology and common pathways. However, specific differences between the two cell types could be observed. Total RNA obtained from undifferentiated hESCs, iPSCs, HLCs (hepatocyte-like cells)-derived from hESCs and iPSCs, fetal forskin fibroblasts and fetal liver.

Project description:Human somatic fibroblasts can be reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by exogenic expression of the Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC) after about 1 month. To gain some insight into the early processes operative in fibroblast reprogramming, we profiled genome-wide transcription levels using Illumina microarrays in the starting donor cells-human foreskin fibroblast (HFF1) cells and at three time points after OSKM transduction (24 h, 48 h, 72 h), as well as two iPS cell lines (iPS2, iPS4) and hES cell lines (H1, H9). We show that within the context of the viral transduction reprogramming protocol, the donor cell response to viral transfection perturbs redox homeostasis, which induces oxidative damage on the donor cells' protein and DNA. This leads to activation of p53, senescence, and apoptosis, greatly reducing the efficiency of reprogramming. Total RNA obtained from HFF1 (human foreskin fibroblast) cells, OSKM-transduced HFF1 cells after 24h, 48h, 72h, undifferentiated hESCs, iPSCs.
