MAF1 is a global repressor of RNA polymerase III transcription that regulates the expression of highly abundant noncoding RNAs in response to nutrient availability and cellular stress. Thus, MAF1 function is thought to be important for metabolic economy. Here we show that a whole-body knockout of Maf1 in mice confers resistance to diet-induced obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by reducing food intake and increasing metabolic inefficiency. Energy expenditure in Maf1(-/-) mice is increa ...[more]

Project description:In higher eukaryotes, an important mechanism to tune translation in different tissues and conditions is mTORC1-dependent regulation of tRNAs transcription by RNA polymerase III (Pol III), as the relative amount of tRNAs tightly coordinates with the translational needs of the cell. mTORC1 contributes to regulate protein synthesis through its direct substrate MAF1, which functions as a negative regulator of Pol III transcription in response to stimuli such as serum starvation or rapamycin treatment. Here, we applied ChIP-seq to examine the Pol III occupancy profile in human fibroblasts and report evidence of a genome wide, MAF1-dependent coordinated response to favorable or stress growth conditions. Strikingly, while a set of genes is extremely responsive in terms of Pol III binding, other genes are mostly unperturbed, yet associated with transcriptionally engaged polymerases as revealed by nascent EU-labeled RNA-seq (neuRNA-seq). As shown by DamIP-seq, the responsiveness of a subset of genes is tightly connected to the rapid and transient interaction of MAF1 with DNA-bound Pol III. We performed duplicate ChIP-seq experiments for the Rpc4 (POLR3D) subunit of RNA polymerase III in IMR90hTert cells grown in the presence of fetal bovine serum (FBS), serum starved (SS), serum starved and treated with insulin (SS+I), serum starved and treated with insulin and rapamycin (SS+R+I). Additional ChIP-seq profiles were generated in cells treated with MAF1 siRNAs and serum starved. MAF1 binding was addressed by DamIP-seq, using two replicates per clone of IMR90hTert cells expressing HA-tagged MAF1-DamK9A (2 different clones) or EGFP-DamK9A (2 different clones). To monitor dynamic transcription profiles we did neusRNA-seq in IMR90hTert cells EU-labeled or mock (DMSO)-labeled. For both DamIP-seq and neusRNA-seq, cells were either unperturbed or serum starved.

Project description:In mouse embryonic cells, a retinoic acid (RA) stimulation triggers a massive change of gene expression leading the pluripotent, proliferating cells to a lineage-specific differentiation process. The retinoic acid receptor (RAR) plays a key role in this response by inhibiting pluripotency-maintaining genes and simultaneously activating some major actors of cell differentiation. To investigate the mechanism underlying this dual regulation, we performed joint RAR/RXR ChIP-seq and mRNA-seq time series during the first 48 hours of the RA-induced Primitive Endoderm differentiation process in F9 embryonic carcinoma cells. We detected significantly more RAR/RXR binding regions than previous studies and identified among them a handful of typical binding intensity patterns during differentiation. We demonstrate that these patterns are correlated with the coincidental binding of essential transcription factors (TFs) for pluripotency maintenance or PrE differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells, as well as the presence of variants of RAR binding motifs. Most importantly, early-bound regions coincide with pluripotency-associated transcription factor binding in ES (like Pou5f1, Sox2, Esrrb and Nr5a2) and display an increased frequency of the DR0 type RAR binding motifs; late-bound sites are associated to the PrE marker Sox17 and are enriched in the canonical DR5 binding motif. Our data offer an unprecedently detailed view on the action of RA in triggering pluripotent cell differentiation. Altogether, this work sheds light on the relocation of RAR/RXR binding sites throughout differentiation, and shows how RAR/RXR progressively shift from DR0 enriched regions, which were specifically identified in undifferentiated models, to canonical RAR binding sites containing loci. Time course (0, 2, 6, 12, 24, 48h) after stimulation of F9 cultured cells by retinoic acid: PanRAR and PanRXR ChIP-seq at 0, 2, 24 and 48h (no replicate); WCE-seq at 0h (no replicate); mRNA-seq at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48h (2 replicates except for time 0h, 4 replicates). Additionally, a control time course (culture in DMSO) sampled at 24 and 48h (no replicates).

Project description:Purpose: Characterization of the target genes of two versions of the Polymerase III (pol III), one containing POLR3G subunit or POLR3GL subunit, in different tissues. Methods: We performed ChIP_seq of POLR3D and the two variants subunits, POLR3G and POLR3GL in Human IMR90 cells, Mouse liver and Mouse Hepatocarcinoma Hepa 1-6 cells in order to locate and analyse total pol III, POLR3G and POLR3GL-containing pol III in various tissues. Results: We show that POLR3G- as well as POLR3GL-containing pol III are present in cultured cell lines and in normal mouse liver, although the relative amounts of the two forms vary, with the POLR3G-containing pol III relatively more abundant in dividing cells. Both forms of pol III occupy the same target genes, in very constant proportions within one cell line, suggesting that the two forms of pol III have similar function with regard to specificity for target genes. Conclusions: POLR3G and POLR3GL occupy the same target genes, but they are differentially expressed under different conditions and in different cell types. Pol III target genes in human IMR cells, Mouse liver, and Mouse Hepatocarcinoma cells were identified by chromatin Immuno-precipitation followed by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq. For Human IMR90 cells, we used antibodies against POLR3D, POLR3G, POLR3GL and BDP1. For Mouse data, we targeted POLR3D, POLR3G and POLR3GL and did ChIP_seq replicates. We also sequenced the corresponding inputs (crosslinked DNA of IMR90 cells, Mouse liver, and Mouse Hepatocarcinoma cells). This represents a total of 20 samples.

Project description:25-hydroxycholesterol has been demonstrated to regulate SREBP processing, yet Ch25h-deficient mice have no cholesterol abnormalities. Using RNA-seq, we find that LPS-stimulated, Ch25h-deficient BMDMs have dysregulated SREBP target genes, demonstrating that 25-hydroxycholesterol is an induced repressor of SREBP during inflammatory settings. mRNA profiles from day 7 M-CSF bone marrow-derived macrophages (wild type, Ch25h-knockout, LXR-double knockout, were generated by deep sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 2500. Sequence reads passing a quality filter were aligned to the mouse genome (mm10) using STAR.

Project description:Low fertility remains a leading cause of poor productivity in dairy cattle. In this context, there is significant interest in developing novel tools for accurate early diagnosis of pregnancy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNA molecules which are critically involved in regulating gene expression during both health and disease. MiRNAs have been shown to regulate ovarian function, uterine receptivity, embryonic development and placental function. Circulating miRNAs can provide useful biomarkers of tissue function and disease; importantly, differential miRNA profiles have been linked to pregnancy and preeclampsia in humans. This study sought to establish the potential of circulating miRNAs as biomarkers of early pregnancy in cattle. We applied Illumina small-RNA sequencing to profile miRNAs in plasma samples collected from eight non-pregnant heifers on Days 0, 8 and 16 of the oestrous cycle and 11 heifers on Days 16 and 24 of pregnancy. We sequenced a total of 46 samples and generated 9.2 million miRNA reads per sample. There were no differences in miRNA read abundance between any of the pregnant and non-pregnant time-points (FDRâ>â0.1). As a complementary approach, we analysed sample pools (3-4 samples/pool) corresponding to Days 0, 8 and 16 of the oestrous cycle and Day 24 of pregnancy (nâ=â3 pools/group) using Qiagen PCR arrays. A total of 16 miRNAs were differentially expressed (FDRâ<â0.1) in plasma between pregnant and non-pregnant animals. RT-qPCR validation using the same plasma samples confirmed that miR-26a was differentially upregulated on Day 16 pregnant relative to non-pregnant heifers (1.7-fold; Pâ=â0.043), whereas miR-1249 tended to be upregulated in Day 16 pregnant heifers (1.6-fold; Pâ=â0.081). Further validation in an independent group of heifers confirmed an increase in plasma miR-26a levels during early pregnancy, which was significant only on Day 24 (2.0-fold; Pâ=â0.027). Through genome-wide analyses we have successfully profiled plasma miRNA populations associated with early pregnancy in cattle. We have identified miR-26a as a potential circulating biomarker of early pregnancy. Sequencing of three sequencial samples from each of eight cycling animals (Days 0, 8 and 16, total 24 samples) and two samples from each of 11 pregnant animals (Days 16 and 24, total 22 samples). Main comparisons were between non-pregnant and pregnant groups

Project description:We analysed a well-established fraction of mouse subcutaneous adipose-derived SVF cells that is generally considered to harbour adipose stem and progenitor cells (ASPCs). To study the molecular characteristics and the subpopulation structure of ASPCs, we performed three replicate scRNA-seq experiments. We collected Lin- (CD31- CD45- TER119-) CD29+ CD34+ SCA1+ cells from the mouse subcutaneous SVF of transgenic mice, in which red fluorescent protein (RFP) is induced in Dlk1-expressing cells upon feeding with tamoxifen. While CD29, CD34, and SCA1 are generally expected to enrich for stem cells, DLK1 has previously been suggested to specifically mark pre-adipocytes. The submission includes the raw data of all sequenced cells, while we only processed 208 high quality single cells. RFP status is indicated in the processed files.
