The effect of BRG1 on the responsivness of IFNg Stimulated Genes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We studied the effect of reconstitution of BRG1 in BRG1-deficient cells on the responsivness of IFNg stimulated genes. Cells were infected with control adenovirus or BRG1-encoding virus. Cells were then left untreated or exposed to IFNg for 6 hours. Total RNA was collected and analyzed with Illumina arrays. SW13 cells were infected with BRG1-encoding adenovirus or control virus. Cells were left untreated or exposed to IFNg for 6 hours

Project description:We studied the effect of knowking down SUZ12 +/- knowckdown of BRM on the responsivness of IFNg stimulated genes. Cells were transfected with siSZU12+/-siBRM or control siRNA+/-siBRM. Cells were then left untreated or exposed to IFNg for 6 hours. Total RNA was collected and analyzed with Illumina arrays. SW13 cells were transfected with siSUZ12+/-siBRM or control siRNA+/-siBRM. Cells were left untreated or exposed to IFNg for 6 hours.
Project description:BRG1, an ATPase catalytic subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, has been identified as a tumor suppressor protein, as it has been shown to play a role in Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) of CPDs, suppress apoptosis, and restore checkpoint deficiency, in response to UV exposure. Although BRG1 has been shown to regulate transcription of some genes that are instrumental in proper DNA damage repair and cell cycle maintenance in response to UV, its role in transcriptional regulation of the whole genome in response to UV has not yet been elucidated. With whole genome expression profiling in SW13 cells, we show that upon UV induction, BRG1 regulates transcriptional expression of many genes involved in cell stress response. Additionally, our results also highlight BRG1’s general role as a master regulator of the genome, as it transcriptionally regulates approximately 4.8% of the human genome, including expression of genes involved in many pathways. SW13 cells without or with BRG1 protein exrpession were treated with UV-C (10 J/m2) or mock treated. Cells were incubated for 6 hrs after UV or mock treaments, total RNA was prepared using TRIZOL reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), followed by the RNeasy kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Three independent biological replicates of SW13+pREP7 and SW13+pREP7+BRG1 were subjected to microarray analysis using Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 gene chip. Target synthesis and GeneChip hybridization, washing, staining, and scanning were performed at the Molecular Biology Core at Washington State University. Microarray output was examined visually for excessive background noise and physical anomalies. The default MAS statistical values were used for all analyses. All probe sets on each array were scaled to a mean target signal intensity of 125, with the signal correlating to the amount of transcript in the sample. An absolute analysis using MAS was performed to assess the relative abundance of the 47,000 represented transcripts and variants, including 38,500 human genes, based on signal and detection

Project description:The SWI/SNF complex remodels chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner through the ATPase subunits BRG1 and BRM. Chromatin remodeling alters nucleosome structure to change gene expression, however aberrant remodeling and gene expression can result in cancer. The function and localization on chromatin of the SWI/SNF complex depends on the protein makeup of the complex. Here we report the protein-protein interactions of wild-type BRG1 or mutant BRG1 in which the HSA domain has been deleted (BRG1-HSA). We demonstrate the interaction of BRG1 with most SWI/SNF complex members and a failure of a number of these members to interact with BRG1-HSA. These results demonstrate that the HSA domain of BRG1 is a critical interaction platform for the correct formation of SWI/SNF remodeling complexes.

Project description:Transcription was assessed in the human H522 NSCLC cell line after reexpression of BRG1, one of the mutually exclusive subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, by adenovirus infection, after treatment with 5 micromolar 5-deAzacytidine or after treatment with 100nM Trichostatin A. Control treatments included infection with adenovirus expressing GFP and treatment with DMSO4 (vehicle control). The goal of the experiment was to identify target genes of the SWI/SNF complex and compart them to changes induced by DNA methylation and histone acetylation modifiers. One biological replicate of each treatment; 4 technical replicates of each treatment.
