Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, a component of the porcine respiratory disease complex, colonizes the respiratory tract of swine by binding to the cilia of the bronchial epithelial cells. Mechanisms of pathogenesis are poorly understood for M. hyopneumoniae, but previous work has indicated that it responds to the environmental stressors heat shock, iron deprivation and oxidative compounds. For successful infection, M. hyopneumoniae must effectively resist host responses to the colonization of the resp ...[more]

Project description:Recent transcriptomic analyses have uncovered widespread occurrence of natural antisense transcripts (NATs), which are transcribed from the opposite strand of another discrete transcribed region. We describe a novel probe-design technique for DNA microarray analysis that specifically targets the complementary strand of annotated genes, and show that this technique can successfully identify novel NAT expression in normal and tumor samples. Northern and in situ hybridization analyses of selected examples (Acaa1, Aard, and Thbd) confirmed their transcription and dynamic expression in a tissue- and cell-type-specific manner. Our data highlight the importance of NAT expression in the regulation of cellular processes and in oncogenesis. The fundamental basis of the technology described in this paper is applicable to all genes and sample types for the identification of NAT expression that is not possible by conventional cDNA/EST/CAGE information. Total RNA for the GRS mammary tumor microarray experiments was isolated from normal and cancerous mammary glands of dissected GRS/A mice, by using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen Corporation). Unpublished data has been masked in the supplementary feature extraction files.

Project description:DNA topoisomerases solve topological problems during chromosome metabolism. We investigated where and when Top1 and Top2 are recruited on replicating chromosomes and how their inactivation affects fork integrity and DNA damage checkpoint activation. We show that, in the context of replicating chromatin, Top1 and Top2 act within a 600 bp region spanning the moving forks. Top2 exhibits additional S-phase clusters at specific intergenic loci, mostly containing promoters. TOP1 ablation does not affect fork progression and stability and does not cause activation of the Rad53 checkpoint kinase. top2 mutants accumulate sister chromatid junctions in S phase without affecting fork progression and activate Rad53 at the M/G1 transition. top1 top2 double mutants exhibit fork block and processing, and phosphorylation of Rad53 and γH2A in S phase. The exonuclease Exo1 influences fork processing and DNA damage checkpoint activation in top1 top2 mutants. Our data are consistent with a coordinated action of Top1 and Top2 in counteracting the accumulation of torsional stress and sister chromatid entanglement at replication forks, thus preventing the diffusion of topological changes along large chromosomal regions. A failure in resolving fork-related topological constrains during S phase may therefore result in abnormal chromosome transitions, DNA damage checkpoint activation and chromosome breakage during segregation. Keywords: ChIP-chip analysis S. cerevisiae chromosomes IIIâV, and chromosome VI highdensity oligonucleotide microarrays were provided by Affymetrix Custom Express Service (SC3456a520015F, P/N 520015; rikDACF, P/N 510636, respectively). Sequence and position of oligonucleotides on the microarrays are available from Affymetrix. ChIP was carried out as previously described (Katou et al. 2003; Katou et al. 2006): we disrupted 1.5 x 108 cells byMulti-beads shocker (MB400U, Yasui Kikai) using glass beads. Anti-HA monoclonal antibody HA.11 (16B12) (CRP Inc.) and anti-Flag monoclonal antibody M2 (Sigma-Aldrich) were used for chromatin immunoprecipitation. ChIPed DNA was purified and amplified by random priming as described (Katou et al. 2003): a total of 10 μg of amplified DNA was digested with DNaseI to a mean size of 100 bp, purified, and the fragments were end-labelled with biotin-N6-ddATP23. Hybridization, washing, staining and scanning were performed according to the manufacturerâs instruction (Affymetrix). Primary data analyses were carried out using the Affymetrix microarray Suite version 5.0 software to obtain hybridization intensity, fold change value, change P-value and detection P-value for each locus. For the discrimination of positive and negative signals for the binding, we compared ChIPed fraction with supernatant fraction by using three criteria. First, the reliability of strength of signal was judged by detection P-value of each locus (P â¥0.025). Second, reliability of binding ratio was judged by change P-value (P ⥠0.025). Third, clusters consisting of at least three contiguous loci that filled the above Bermejo et al. 26 two criteria were selected, because it was known that a single site of proteinâDNA interaction will result in immunoprecipitation of DNA fragments that hybridized not only to the locus of the actual binding site but also to its neighbours. For the analyses of BrdU incorporation, cells were fixed by ice-cold buffer containing 0.1% azide, and then total DNA from 3 x108 cells was purified. DNA was sheared to 300 bp by sonication, denatured, and mixed with 2μg anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (2B1D5F5H4E2; MBL). Antibody-bound and unbound fractions were subsequently purified, amplified, labelled and hybridized to the DNA chip.

Project description:RNA-Seq profiling of Methylomicrobium alcaliphilum strain 20Z grown in batch on methane. The RNA-Seq work is one part of a systems approach to characterizing metabolism of 20Z during growth on methane. We demonstrate that methane assimilation is coupled with a highly efficient pyrophosphate-mediated glycolytic pathway, which under O2 limitation participates in a novel form of fermentation-based methanotrophy. This surprising discovery suggests a novel mode of methane utilization in oxygen-limited environments, and opens new opportunities for a modular approach towards producing a variety of excreted chemical products using methane as a feedstock.

Project description:The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae alters its gene expression profile in response to a change in nutrient availability. The PHO-system is a well-studied case in the transcriptional regulation responding to nutritional changes in which a set of genes (PHO genes) is expressed to activate phosphate (Pi) metabolism for adaptation to Pi-starvation. Pi-starvation triggers an inhibition of Pho85 kinase, leading to migration of unphosphorylated Pho4 transcriptional activator into the nucleus enabling expression of PHO genes. When Pi is sufficient, the Pho85 kinase phosphorylates Pho4 thereby excluding it from the nucleus and resulting in repression (i.e., lack of transcription) of PHO genes. The Pho85 kinase has a role in various cellular functions other than regulation of the PHO system, in that Pho85 monitors whether environmental conditions are adequate for cell growth, and represses inadequate (untimely) responses in these cellular processes. In contrast, Pho4 appears to activate some genes involved in stress-response and is required for G1 arrest caused by DNA damage. These facts suggest the antagonistic function of these two players on a more general scale when yeast cells must cope with stress conditions. To explore general involvement of Pho4 in stress-response, we tried to identify Pho4-dependent genes by a genome-wide mapping of Pho4- and Rpo21-binding (Rpo21 being the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II) using a yeast tiling array. In the course of this study, we found Pi- and Pho4-regulated intragenic and antisense RNAs that could modulate the Pi-signal transduction pathway. Low-Pi signal is transmitted via certain inositol polyphosphate (IP) species (IP7) that are synthesized by Vip1 IP6 kinase. We have shown that Pho4 activates transcription of antisense and intragenic RNAs in the KCS1 locus to downregulate the Kcs1 activity, another IP6 kinase, by producing truncated Kcs1 protein via hybrid formation with the KCS1 mRNA and translation of the intragenic RNA, thereby enabling Vip1 to utilize more IP6 to synthesize IP7 functioning in low-Pi signaling. Since Kcs1 also can phosphorylate these IP7 species to synthesize IP8, reduction in the Kcs1 activity can ensure accumulation of the IP7 species, leading to further stimulation of low Pi-signaling, i.e., forming a positive feedback loop. We also report that genes apparently not involved in the PHO system are regulated by Pho4 either dependent upon or independently of the Pi conditions, and many of the latter genes are involved in stress-response. In S. cerevisiae, a large-scale cDNA analysis and mapping of RNA polymerase II binding using a high-resolution tiling array have identified a large number of antisense RNA species whose functions are yet to be clarified. Here we have shown that nutrient-regulated antisense and intragenic RNAs, as well as direct regulation of structural gene transcription, function in the response to nutrient availability. Our findings also imply that Pho4 is present in the nucleus even under high-Pi condition to activate or repress transcription, which challenges our current understanding of Pho4 regulation. Wild type and pho4 deletion mutant were grown in low or high phosphate medium and distribution of Rpo21 was analyzed.

Project description:During chromosome duplication the parental DNA molecule becomes over-wound, or positively supercoiled, in the region ahead of the advancing replication fork. To allow fork progression this superhelical tension has to be removed by topoisomerases, which operate by introducing transient DNA breaks. Positive supercoiling can also be diminished if the advancing fork rotates along the DNA helix, but then sister chromatid intertwinings form in its wake. Despite these insights it remains largely unknown how replicationinduced superhelical stress is dealt with on linear, eukaryotic chromosomes. Here we show that this stress increases with the length of budding yeast chromosomes. This opens for the possibility that superhelical tension is handled on a chromosome scale and not only within topologically closed chromosomal domains as the current view predicts. We found that inhibition of type I topoisomerases leads to a late replication delay of longer, but not shorter chromosomes. This phenotype is also displayed by cells expressing mutated versions of the cohesin- and condensin–related Smc5/6 complex. The chromosomal association of the Smc5/6 complex is shown to increase in response to chromosome lengthening, chromosome circularization, or inactivation of Topoisomerase 2, all having the potential to increase the number of sister chromatid intertwinings 3. Furthermore, non-functional Smc6 reduces the accumulation of intertwined sister plasmids after one round of replication in the absence of Topoisomerase 2 function. Our results demonstrate that the length of a chromosome influences the need of superhelical tension release in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and allow us to propose a model where the Smc5/6 complex facilitates fork rotation by sequestering nascent chromatid intertwinings which form behind the replication machinery. Smc6、Nse4, and Scc2 profiles with or without topological tension was analyzed (in top2 mutant, cells with circular chromosome, and fragmented chromosome) . 17 ChIP samples and corresponding WCE fractions have been analyzed.

Project description:ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes have been shown to participate in DNA replication in addition to transcription and DNA repair. However, the mechanisms of their involvement in DNA replication remain unclear. Here, we reveal a specific function of the yeast INO80 chromatin remodeling complex in the DNA damage tolerance pathways. Whereas INO80 is necessary for the resumption of replication at forks stalled by methyl methane sulfonate (MMS), it is not required for replication fork collapse after treatment with hydroxyurea (HU). Mechanistically, INO80 regulates DNA damage tolerance during replication through modulation of PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) ubiquitination and Rad51-mediated processing of recombination intermediates at impeded replication forks. Our findings establish a mechanistic link between INO80 and DNA damage tolerance pathways, indicating that chromatin remodeling is important for accurate DNA replication. INO80 distribution in WT cells was measured.

Project description:Sense-antisense transcript (SAT) pairs are pairs of transcripts that fully or partially overlap but are transcribed in opposite directions. Although SAT expression occurs in various species, most SAT pairs have not been examined in detail. Because our previous studies revealed some tissue specificity in SAT expression, SAT pairs might be involved in cell differentiation and the maintenance of tissue-specific gene expression programs. To analyze such tissue-specific SAT pairs, we assessed the expression profiles of SATs from 12 tissues of normal mice at a genome-wide scale and found that a considerable number of SAT pairs showed expression patterns unique to testis. This finding prompted us to study the relationship between SAT expression pattern and another epigenetic gene regulatory mechanism, DNA methylation. We conducted a comparative global analysis of the DNA methylation status of CpG island (CGI)-associated SAT loci from various tissues and found that in 99 of the 4911 SAT pairs studied, DNA methylation could cooperatively suppress its downstream “sense” transcription together with the “antisense” transcriptional activity in a tissue-specific manner. The tissue-specific differentially methylated regions (T-DMRs) of these SAT pairs mainly occurred outside of the defined CGIs. In addition, some of these T-DMRs are situated at the 5′ region of the antisense transcripts. This positioning implies a novel mechanism for DNA methylation to regulate gene transcription, in which DNA methylation inhibits an opposing transcriptional activity and therefore maintains stable expression of a tissue-specific gene. Twelve tissues (brain, thymus, heart, lung, liver, spleen, stomach, kidney, small intestine, testis, and placentae [10.5 and 13.5 days postcoitum (dpc)]) of C57BL/6J Jc1 and a mouse fibroblast cell line (SL10) were used for the mouse expression oligo-microarray. The expression array data were obtained by both oligo-dT and random priming methods, except for SL10 (olio-dT only). Twelve tissues (brain, thymus, heart, lung, liver, spleen, stomach, kidney, small intestine, testis, and placentae [10.5 and 13.5 days postcoitum (dpc)]) were used for DIP chip experiments. Nine of twelve tissues were separately analyzed classified on the basis of sex. A technical duplication of DIP chip analysis was performed by using the same genomic DNA of male kidney.
