Project description:Using Mycoplasma pneumoniae as a model organism, we conditionally depleted the two essential ATP-dependent proteases (Lon and FtsH) of this bacterium, by engineering three strains carrying a Lon and/or FtsH inducible expression locus. An integrative comparative study combining label-free shotgun proteomics and RNA-seq allowed us to decipher the global cellular response to Lon and FtsH depletion and to define protease substrates in this genome-reduced organism.

Project description:We used a combination of genetic and proteomic approaches to characterize tmRNA (ssrA) activity in the genome-reduced bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae. For this, we generated tmRNA mutants encoding a tag resistant to proteolysis. Endogenous protein tagging by the mutant tmRNA gene (ssrAmk) was then examined by immunoprecipitation (IP) enrichment followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. Additionally, RNA-seq differential expression analysis of the mutants compared to the wild-type strain was assessed.

Project description:In order to study quantitatively the translation efficiency in the genome-reduced bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae, we performed ribosome profiling (ribo-seq) in standard growth conditions. We first tested whether the ribosome profiling method could be applied to M. pneumoniae and assessed the quality of the obtained data. Mpn present some characteristics that differ from other model bacterial species where ribosome profiling has been established, like the absence of a cell wall, different lipid composition and low number of ribosomes (200-300 per cell compared with ~55,000 in E. coli). Thus, several aspects of the original method (Ingolia et al., 2009) had to be adapted. As a reference, we also performed ribosome profiling in E. coli. We also calibrated the ribosome P-site shift from the 3’ end of ribosome protected footprints (RPFs) by analyzing the metagene profile of a sample treated with tetracycline.

Project description:Small, non-coding RNAs control gene expression post-transcriptionally and play important roles in virus-host interactions. Within the liver, the microRNA (miRNA) miR-122 is essential for replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV), while repression of miR-148a by hepatitis B virus (HBV) may enhance tumorigenesis. Despite their importance to the outcome of these infections, few previous studies have described unbiased profiling of small RNAs in the liver during chronic viral hepatitis. Here, we sequenced small (14-40 nts) RNAs in liver from subjects with chronic hepatitis B and C. We found that small RNAs derived from tRNAs, specifically 5’ tRNA-halves (“5’ tRHs”, ~31-34 nts), are abundant in liver and significantly increased during chronic viral infection in humans and also chimpanzees. In most infected livers, 5’ tRH abundance exceeded that of miRNAs. In contrast, in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue from these subjects, tRH abundance was reduced concomitant with decreased expression of the tRNA-cleaving ribonuclease, angiogenin. Although tRHs have been identified in mice, our results show they are abundantly expressed in human tissue, increased in chronic viral infection, and decreased in liver cancer. Our findings highlight the potential biological and clinical relevance of these small non-coding RNAs. Small RNA-seq of liver samples from control subjects (n=4), subjects with chronic hepatitis B (n=4) and hepatitis B associated hepatocellular carcinoma (n=4, 3 out of 4 matched with non-tumor tissue) and subjects with chronic hepatitis C (n=4) and tissue from hepatocellular carcinoma of the same patients.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in a wide range of cellular processes. Aberrant regulation of miRNA genes contributes to human diseases, including cancer. The TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), a DNA/RNA binding protein associated with neurodegeneration, is involved in miRNA biogenesis. Here, we systematically examined miRNAs whose expression levels are regulated by TDP-43 using RNA-Seq coupled with siRNA-mediated knockdown approach. TDP-43 knocking down affected the expression of a number of miRNAs. Alterations in isomiR patterns and miRNA arm selection after TDP-43 knockdown suggest a role of TDP-43 in miRNA editing. We examined correlation of selected TDP-43 associated miRNAs and their candidate target genes in human cancers. Our data reveal highly complex roles of TDP-43 in regulating different miRNAs and their target genes. Our results suggest that TDP-43 may promote migration of lung cancer cells by regulating miR-423-3p expression. On the other hand, TDP-43 increases miR-500a-3p expression and binds to the mature miR-500a-3p sequence. Low expression of miR-500a-3p was associated with poor survival of lung cancer patients, suggesting that TDP-43 may have a suppressive role in cancer by regulating miR-500a-3p. Our experiments reveal that cancer-associated genes LIF and PAPPA may be targets of miR-500a-3p. Together with other studies, our work suggests that TDP-43-regulated miRNAs may play multi-facet roles in the pathogenesis of cancer. small RNA seq in SH-SY-5Y, SNB-19 and HT22 (TDP-43 siRNA VS Control siRNA)

Project description:Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is a master regulator of vascular development and function. Consequently, VEGF-A regulated gene expression programs have been under heavy research. In this study we study the transcriptional regulation of VEGF-A-responsive genes in primary aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) and vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) using genome wide global run-on sequencing (GRO-Seq). We show that half of VEGF-A induced genes display a paused phenotype under basal conditions and are thus poised for rapid gene activation. Promoters of paused genes are distinguished from those of non-paused by higher basal enrichment for active histone marks H3K4me3, H3K9ac and H3K27ac. We also show that nearly 100% of the VEGF-upregulated genes are induced at the level of elongation, whereas 38-53% are also induced at the level of initiation. We also report a comprehensive chromatin interaction map generated in HUVECs using tethered conformation capture (TCC) and characterize chromatin interactions in relation to transcriptional activity. We demonstrate that sites of active transcription are more likely to engage in chromatin looping and identify chromatin compartments enriched for VEGF-regulated genes. Cell-type specific transcriptional activity was also shown to reflect boundaries of chromatin interactions within the HOXA cluster. Collectively, these findings provide new insight into mechanisms behind VEGF-A-regulated transcriptional programs in endothelial cells. ChIP-Seq (H3K4me2), GRO-Seq and HiC profiling was performed in HUVECs and HAECs.

Project description:Background: WitchesM-bM-^@M-^Y broom disease of Mexican lime (Citrus aurantifolia L.), which is caused by the phytoplasma M-bM-^@M-^\Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifoliaM-bM-^@M-^], is a devastating disease that results in significant economic losses. Plants adapt to abiotic stresses by regulating gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a recently identified family of molecules that regulate plant responses to environmental stresses through post-transcriptional gene silencing. Methods: Using a high-throughput approach to sequence small RNAs, we compared the expression profiles of miRNAs in healthy Mexican lime trees and in plants infected with M-bM-^@M-^\Ca. Phytoplasma aurantifoliaM-bM-^@M-^]. Results: Our results demonstrated the involvement of different miRNAs in the response of Mexican lime trees to infection by M-bM-^@M-^\Ca. Phytoplasma aurantifoliaM-bM-^@M-^]. We identified miRNA families that are expressed differentially upon infection with phytoplasmas. Most of the miRNAs had variants with small sequence variations (isomiRs), which are expressed differentially in response to pathogen infection. Conclusions: It is likely that the miRNAs that are expressed differentially in healthy and phytoplasma-infected Mexican lime trees are involved in coordinating the regulation of hormonal, nutritional, and stress signalling pathways, and the complex interactions between them. Future research to elucidate the roles of these miRNAs should improve our understanding of the level of diversity of specific plant responses to phytoplasmas. Small mRNA profiles of healthy (H) and Phytoplasma-infected Mexican lime trees were generated by deep sequencing, six replicate, using Illumina Hiseq2000
