Project description:Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a genetic disorder displaying features reminiscent of premature senescence caused by germline mutations in the LMNA gene encoding lamin A and C, essential components of the nuclear lamina. By studying a family with homozygous LMNA mutation (K542N), we showed that HGPS can also be caused by mutations affecting both isoforms, lamin A and C (J Med Genet 2004;41:609M-^V614). With the aim to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of lamin A/C-related (hereditary) HGPS, we investigated primary cultured skin fibroblasts from affected homozygous K542N carriers (n=3), healthy heterozygotes (n=3), and controls (n=3) for differences in global gene expression using GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix UK Ltd.).

Project description:Sixteen pre-treatment samples of pathologically confirmed solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) were available for RNA profiling. They were collected from 16 patients who underwent initial surgery and/or diagnostic biopsy. Samples were macrodissected by pathologists, and frozen within 30 min of removal in liquid nitrogen in our biobank (Biobank authorization number 2008/70, APHM). All profiled specimens contained more than 70% tumor cells. Each patient gave written informed consent for molecular analysis, and the study was approved by our institutional ethics committee. Total RNA was extracted from frozen samples by using the All-In-One Norgen Biotek kit (Thorold, Canada) and integrity was controlled by Agilent analysis (Bioanalyzer, Palo Alto, CA). Gene expression profiling was done with Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 human oligonucleotide microarrays with labeling kit and protocol from manufacturer.

Project description:Various mutations in the rpoB gene, which encodes the RNA polymerase beta subunit, are associated with increased vancomycin (VAN) resistance in vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA) and hetero-VISA (hVISA) strains. We reported that rpoB mutations are also linked to the expression of the recently found slow VISA (sVISA) phenotype (Saito et al 2014 AAC). Because RpoC and RpoB are components of RNA polymerase, we examined the effect of rpoC(P440L) mutation on the expression of the sVISA phenotype in the Mu3fdh2*V6-5 strain (V6-5), which was derived from a previously reported hVISA strain with the VISA phenotype. V6-5 had an extremely prolonged doubling time (72.2 min) and high vncomycin MIC (16 mg/L). However, the phenotype of V6-5 was unstable, and the strain frequently reverted to hVISA with concomitant loss of slow growth rate, cell wall thickness, and reduced autolysis. Whole genome sequencing of phenotypic revertant strain V6-5-L1 and comparison with V6-5 revealed a second mutation F562L in rpoC. Introduction of the wild-type rpoC gene using multi-copy plasmid resolved the sVISA phenotype of V6-5, indicating that rpoC(P440L) mutation expressed the sVISA phenotype in hVISA. To investigate the mechanisms of resistance in the sVISA strain, we independently isolated additional 10 revertants to hVISA and VISA. In subsequent whole genome analysis, we identified compensatory mutations in the genes of three distinct functional categories; rpoC gene itself as regulatory mutations, peptidoglycan biosynthesis genes, and relQ which is involved in stringent response. It appears that rpoC(P440L) mutation causes sVISA phenotype by augmenting cell-wall peptidoglycan synthesis, and through the control of stringent response. 9 analysis using 60 mer-oligo microarray, 4 rpoC mutant, 2 relQ mutant, 2 mutations associated with the peptidoglycan, 1 wild-type strain

Project description:hVISA clinical strain Mu3 spontaneously generates VISA at an extremely high frequency (1x10-6 or greater) within its cell population. The VISA-converted mutant strains generally grow slower than their parent hVISA strain, but they usually form colonies on vancomycin-containing agar plates after 48 hours of incubation on population analysis. However, we noticed a curious group of VISA mutants whose colony formation is much more delayed and observed as discrete colonies only after 96 hours incubation. They have extremely prolonged lag-phase and doubling-times, but recorded vancomycin MICs of 8 to 24 mg/L when determined after 48 to 96 hours of incubation. We established strain Mu3-6RS having vancomycin MIC of 12 mg/L (at 72h) as a representative of the M-bM-^@M-^Xslow VISAM-bM-^@M-^Y (sVISA) strains. Its cell wall was thickened, and autolytic activity was decreased as compared with those of the parent strain Mu3. Whole genome sequencing of Mu3-6RS revealed only one mutation, which substituted the 512th amino-acid sequence of RNA polymerase M-CM-^_-subunit from Arg of Mu3 to Proline. Its VISA phenotype was unstable, and the strain frequently reverted to hVISA with concomitant loss of small colony morphology, cell-wall thickness and reduced autolytic activity. Sequencing of rpoB genes of the reverted strains revealed mutations affecting the 512th codon replacing the Proline of Mu3-6RS to Leucine, Serine, or Histidine. This study proposes sVISA as a discrete class of VISA phenotype, which can serve as a temporary shelter for S. aureus to survive relatively high concentrations of vancomycin. The sVISA spontaneously returns to hVISA when the threat of vancomycin passes by. The rpoB(R512P) mutation may be regarded as a M-bM-^@M-^Xregulatory mutationM-bM-^@M-^Y switching on and off the reversible sVISA phenotype. 5 sample analysis using 60mer-oligo microarray, 3 rpoB mutant(R512P,R512L,R512S), 2 wild-type strain(Mu3, M-NM-^TIP)

Project description:Transgenic tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants expressing a fragment of the SlSIOGDH gene encoding subunit E1 of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase protein complex in the antisense orientation and exhibiting considerable reductions in the activity of this enzyme exhibit a considerably reduced rate of respiration. They were, however, characterised by largely unaltered photosynthetic rates and fruit yield but a restricted leaf, stem and root growth rate. The lines displayed markedly altered metabolic profiles including changes in tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates and in the majority of the amino acids without alterations in pyridine nucleotide content. Moreover, they displayed a generally accelerated development exhibiting early flowering, accelerated fruit ripening and a markedly earlier onset of leaf senescence. In addition, transcript and selective hormone profiling of gibberellins and ABA revealed changes only in the former coupled to changes in transcripts encoding enzymes of gibberellins biosynthesis. The data obtained are discussed in the context of the importance of this enzyme in both photosynthetic and respiratory metabolism as well as in programs of plant development connected to carbon nitrogen interactions. Three biological replicates per genotype were analysed. Genotypes analyzed were tomato var. M82 wild type plants grown under green house conditions with one 2-oxo-glutarate dehydrogenase antisense line grown under the same conditions.

Project description:Androgens are required for the development of normal prostate, and they are also linked to the development of prostate cancer. We used microarrays to understand the role of androgen in an androgen dependent, androgen receptor (AR) positive human metastatic cell line, LNCaP. LNCaP cells were grown in RPMI medium and they were subjected to stay in phenol-red free, RPMI with charcoal stripped serum for 48h. Synthetic androgen R1881 was added and the cells were allowed to grow for 48h. Control cells were given with corresponding amount of ethanol as vehicle which is used for the solubilization of R1881. Cells were harvested and RNA was isolated for microarray analysis.

Project description:Background: In prokaryotes, sigma factors are essential for the targeting of the transcription machinery to promoters. Various sigma factors have been described that recognize and bind to specific DNA sequence motifs in promoter sequences. The canonical sigma factor M-OM-^C70 is commonly involved in transcription of the cell's general housekeeping genes, which is mediated by the conserved M-OM-^C70 promoter sequence motifs. This study detects and predicts the general M-OM-^C70-promoter sequences in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 using genome-wide analysis. The accuracy of the transcriptionally-active part of this promoter prediction was subsequently evaluated by correlating locations of predicted promoters with experimentally detected transcription starts sites (TSSs) using high-resolution tiling array transcriptome datasets. Results: To identify M-OM-^C70-related promoter sequences, we performed a genome-wide sequence motif scan of the L. plantarum WCFS1 genome focusing on the regions upstream of protein-encoding genes. We obtained several highly conserved motifs including those resembling the conserved M-OM-^C70-promoter consensus. Position weight matrices-based models of the recovered M-OM-^C70-promoter sequence motif were employed to identify 4746 motifs with significant similarity (p-value < 10-4) to the model-motif in the L. plantarum genome. Genome-wide transcription start site information deduced from whole genome tiling-array transcriptome datasets revealed 936 TSSs that were employed to validate the transcriptionally active fraction of these predicted promoters. In total, 578 predicted promoters were found in proximity (M-bM-^IM-$ 100 nucleotides) of the identified TSSs, showing a highly significant co-occurrence of predicted promoter and measured TSS (p-value < 10-23). An additional 224 predicted promoters was validated when the significant similarity to the model-motif was applied less strictly (10-4 M-bM-^IM-$ p-value < 10-3). Conclusions: High-resolution tiling arrays provide a suitable source for TSS detection at a genome-wide level, and allow experimental verification of in silico-predicted promoter sequence motifs.
