Project description:The submitted dataset contains results of validation experiments for pyAscore, an efficient and versatile implementation of the Ascore algorithm in Python for scoring the localization of user defined PTMs in data dependent mass spectrometry. In order to test the versatility of the package, three samples from three pride accessions were re-analyzed: label-free phosphoprotome samples were downloaded from PXD007740, TMT-labeled phosphoproteome samples were downloaded from PXD007145, and label free acetylome samples were downloaded from MSV000079068. We also wanted to evaluate the performance of pyAscore's PTM localizations on data where the modification site of peptides was known. Thus, we downloaded and re-analyzed synthetic phosphopeptide samples which were analyzed with 3 different fragmentation approaches: HCD and ETD synthetic phosphopeptide data were downloaded from PXD000138 and CID data were downloaded from PXD000759.
Project description:SATB1 is a genetic master regulator in dopaminergic neurons. We try to identify the downstream regulated genes and pathways of SATB1 in human dopaminergic and CTX neurons. The RNA-Seq experiment was performed to investigate the role of the genetic master regulator SATB1 in human dopaminergic neurons in comparison to cortical neurons. We generated a human embryonic stem cell knockout clone for SATB1 and differentiated this clone into either dopaminergic or cortical neurons. Immature dopaminergic (day 30 of differentiation), mature dopaminergic (day 50 of differentiation) and mature cortical neurons (day 30 of differentiation) were subsequently subjected to RNA-Seq. We compared wild type and SATB1-KO neurons at the afore mentioned time points, to characterize the regulatory role of SATB1 in the different neuron subtypes.
Project description:Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an inflammatory process of the lungs characterized by increased permeability of the alveolar-capillary membrane with subsequent interstitial/alveolar edema and diffuse alveolar damage. ALI/ARDS can be the results of either direct or indirect lung injury, with pneumonia being the most common direct pulmonary insult and sepsis the most common extra-pulmonary cause. In this study, we employed the murine lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced direct and indirect lung injury model to explore the pathogenic mechanisms of pulmonary and extra-pulmonary ARDS, using an unbiased, discovery and quantitative proteomic approach. A total of 1,017 proteins were both identified and quantified in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from control, intratracheal LPS (I.T. LPS, 0.1 mg/kg) and intraperitoneal LPS (I.P. LPS, 5 mg/kg) treated mice. The two LPS groups shared 13 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated proteins compared to the control group. Among them, molecules related to bronchial and type II alveolar epithelial cell functions including cell adhesion molecule 1 and surfactant protein B were reduced, whereas lactotransferrin and resistin like alpha involved in lung innate immunity were upregulated in both LPS groups. Proteomic profiling also identified significant differences in BALF proteins between I.T. and I.P. LPS groups. Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed that acute-phase response signaling was activated by both I.T. and I.P. LPS, however, the magnitude of activation is much greater in I.T. LPS group compared to I.P. LPS group. Intriguingly, two canonical signaling pathways, liver X receptor/retinoid X receptor activation and the production of nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species in macrophages, were activated by I.T. LPS but suppressed by I.P. LPS. In addition, CXCL15 (also known as lungkine) was also up-regulated by I.T LPS but down-regulated by I.P. LPS. In conclusion, our quantitative discovery-based proteomic approach identified commonalities as well as significant differences in BALF protein expression profiles in LPS-induced direct and indirect lung injury, and importantly, LPS-induced indirect lung injury results in suppression of select components of lung innate immunity, which could contribute to the so-called “immunoparalysis” in sepsis patients.

This dataset contains data from the model proteins only.

Project description:We used ATAC-seq (Buenrostro et al, 2013) to identify regions of open chromatin in FACS sorted mouse endothelial cells from E12.5 hearts. Please note that the animals were injected at different dates, which resulted in different effects of the knockout, as indicated in the batch attribute of the samples. This data set is part of the study \Endocardial Tbx20 is essential for mesenchymal and myocardial cell movements required for cardiac septation\.
