Project description:The CUG-BP and ETR-3-like factor 1 (Celf1) RNA binding protein plays an important role in heart and muscle development, and is over-expressed in the disease myotonic dystrophy. Celf1 has known roles in regulation of RNA splicing, RNA stability, and protein translation. To identify transcriptome-wide targets of the Celf1 protein in heart, we performed RNA-Seq of polyA+ RNA from mice inducibly expressing Celf1 in the heart. Mice were engineered to express the reverse tetracycline trans-activator (rtTA) from a heart-specific alpha myosin heavy chain promoter, and an N-terminal Flag-tagged version of the LYLQ isoform of human Celf1 from a tet-inducible promoter. Mice were fed doxycycline to induce Celf1 expression in heart, and hearts were harvested from 3 mice each at 12 hour, 24 hour, 72 hour, and 7 day time points. To account for potential doxycycline-dependent effects, control mice were fed doxycycline for 72 hours but these mice did not contain the tet-inducible Celf1 cassette. In total, 15 hearts were analyzed by RNA-Seq.

Project description:Tbx20 is a transcription factor important for heart development. To assess the role of Tbx20 in the adult heart, we generated a conditional knockout for this gene, specifically in cardiomyocytes. We profiled gene expression levels using RNA-seq in both normal and knockout adult mouse hearts to identify genes and pathways regulated by Tbx20. The article describing the Tbx20 knockout mouse is under review, a reference will be added when published. Analysis of triplicate mRNA samples of adult mouse, comparing normal and knockout

Project description:CCBE1 is a secreted extracellular matrix protein expressed by epicardial cells but its role during epicardial development was still unknown.Using a Ccbe1 knockout (KO) mouse model, we observed that loss of CCBE1 leads to congenital heart defects including thinner and hyper-trabeculated ventricular myocardium. In addition, Ccbe1 mutant hearts displayed reduced proliferation of cardiomyocyte and epicardial cells. RNA-seq data of CCBE1 KO and WT murine hearts indicated deregulation of genes associated with development and morphogenesis including the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

Project description:Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) results from the selective and progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Although the underlying disease mechanisms remain unknown, glial cells have been implicated in ALS disease progression. Here we examine the effects of glial cell/motor neuron interactions on gene expression, using the hSOD1G93A mouse model of ALS. We detect striking cell autonomous and non-autonomous changes in gene expression in co-cultured motor neurons and glia, revealing that the two cell types profoundly affect each other. In addition, we found a remarkable concordance between the cell culture data, expression profiles of whole spinal cords, and of acutely isolated spinal cord cells, during disease progression in the G93A mouse model, providing validation of the cell culture approach. Bioinformatics analyses identified changes in the expression of specific genes and signaling pathways that may contribute to motor neuron degeneration in ALS, among which are TGF-b signaling pathways. RNA-seq profiles of: 1) 43 Sandwich culture samples at 3 different time points (3, 7 and 14 days), in duplicate, in different combinations of genetic background WT/SOD1_G93A mutant glia and WT/SOD1_G93A mutant neurons; 2) 16 spinal cord samples at 4 different time points, WT and SOD1_G93A mutant.

Project description:The heartM-bM-^@M-^Ys rhythm is initiated and regulated by a group of specialized cells in the sinoatrial node (SAN), the primary pacemaker of the heart. Abnormalities in the development of the SAN can result in irregular heart rates (arrhythmias). Although several of the critical genes important for SAN formation have been identified, our understanding of the transcriptional network controlling SAN development remains at a relatively early stage. The homeodomain transcription factor Shox2 plays an essential early role in the specification and patterning of the SAN. Here, we compared gene expression levels in the right atria of wildtype and Shox2-/- hearts using microarray experiments to identify Shox2 target genes. Right atria of E11.5 mouse embryos were dissected and genotyped for RNA extraction. RNA from 6 embryos and 2 independent pregnancies was pooled per genotype (Wildtype and Shox2 Knockout) and compared.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that diverse RNA binding proteins interact with regulatory RNAs to regulate transcription. RBFox2 is a ubiquitous RNA binding protein with prevalent expression in stem cells, heart, and brain. Here, we report a systematic dissection of the RBFox2-regulated RNA program in the mouse heart, demonstrating its essential function for organizing the contractile apparatus and excitation-contraction (EC) coupling by modulating alternative splicing and microRNA activity. In this analysis, we unexpectedly encounter a major functional intersection between RBFox2 and Polycomb Complex 2 (PRC2), revealing a central requirement for RBFox2 to mediate genome-wide targeting of the PRC2 complex and transcriptional repression via chromatin-associated nascent RNAs. These findings unveil the mechanism underlying the enigmatic association of PRC2 with numerous active genes, highlight the importance of gene body sequences to gauge transcriptional output, and suggest nascent RNAs as critical signals for transcriptional feedback control to maintain homeostatic gene expression in mammalian cells.

Project description:Promoters of many developmentally regulated genes, in the embryonic stem cell state, have a bivalent mark of H3K27me3 and H3K4me3, proposed to confer precise temporal activation upon differentiation. Although Polycomb repressive complex 2 is known to implement H3K27 trimethylation, the COMPASS family member responsible for H3K4me3 at bivalently marked promoters was previously unknown. Here, we identify Mll2 (KMT2b) as the enzyme catalyzing H3K4 trimethylation at bivalently marked promoters in embryonic stem cells. Although H3K4me3 at bivalent genes is proposed to prime future activation, we detected no substantial defect in rapid transcriptional induction after retinoic acid treatment in Mll2-depleted cells. Our identification of the Mll2 complex as the COMPASS family member responsible for H3K4me3 marking at bivalent promoters provides an opportunity to reevaluate and experimentally test models for the function of bivalency in the embryonic stem cell state and in differentiation. ChIP-Seq in mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells for MLL2. ChIP-seq of H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 for mES cells with RNAi against MLL2(shMLL2) and control (shGFP). ChIP-seq of H3K4me3 in mES cells with RNAi against MLL3 (shMLL3). RNA-seq of mES cells with RNAi against MLL2 and control (shGFP). RNA-seq of control mES cells (shGFP) or MLL2 RNAi mES cells (shMLL2) induced with RA for 6h and 12h.

Project description:In this project we explore the role of the master hypoxia regulator, Hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (Hif-1a), in governing cardiac fibroblast (CF) function in homeostasis and following an acute ischaemic injury - myocardial infarction (MI). CF-specific Hif-1a conditional knockout (cKO) mice were generated by breeding Pdgfra-merCremer (PdgfraMCM/+) Cre recombinase driver mice with Hif-1a-floxed mice (Hif-1aflox/). In Hif-1afl/-; PdgfraMCM/+ progeny, Hif-1a could be conditionally deleted in adult CFs by tamoxifen (tam) administration. We also introduced a Cre-dependent R26tdTomato reporter allele allowing marking of Pdgfra+ CFs and their progeny. In this experiment, we first performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) on tdTomato+ cells from the hearts of healthy cKO or heterozygous (HET) adult, male mice using the 10x Genomics Chromium system. We also performed scRNA-seq on tdTomato+/CD31-/CD45- cells from the hearts of cKO or HET mice at day-3 post-sham or -MI surgery.
