Transcriptome analysis of WEHI B lymphoma cells overexpressing individual NFATc1 proteins


ABSTRACT: In lymphocytes, NFATc1 is the most prominent NFAT transcription factor which play a crucial role in the fate and activity of peripheral T and B cells. NFATc1 is synthesized in two prominent isoforms, the inducible short isoform NFATc1/aA and the constitutively expressed long isoform NFATc1/C. Several lines of evidence suggested that both isoforms differ markedly in their function. It was speculated that NFATc1/aA supports the proliferation and survival of lymphocytes, whereas NFATc1/C should support apoptosis and anergy induction. To proof this hypothesis we established WEHI 231 B lymphoma cells that stably (over-) express either NFATc1/aA or NFATc1/C. In preliminary experiments we could should that WEHI cells overexpressing NFATc1/aA were protected against apoptosis induction, while cells overexpressing NFATc1/C should a higher apoptosis rate. Transcriptom analysis of WEHI-231 cells overexpressing either NFATc1/aA or NFATc1/C were performed, along with a control group of WEHI-231 cells overexpressing the E.coli enzyme BirA Ligase (which is also present in all target cell lines since for further molecular assays the NFATc1 proteins were expressed as chimeric protein containing C-terminal bio-tags. The experimental results obtained indicate that the both NFATc1 proteins, NFATc1/aA and NFATc1/C, differ tremendously in their transcriptional properties.
