Project description:Pax6 is a transcription factor that is expressed in neuroepithelial cells from the initial stage of brain development. Region specific expression of Pax6 plays pivotal roles in the developing CNS, including brain patterning, neuronal specification, neuronal migration, and axonal projection. Regarding neurogenesis, Pax6 multiply works either as to promote neuronal differentiation or cell proliferation in a highly context-dependent manner. However, no Pax6 target gene is identified as to promote proliferation and/or inhibit differentiation of neuroepithelial cells. Here, we performed comparative analysis using the Affymetrix U34A array to identify genes that are differentially expressed in the early stage of wild-type and Pax6 homozygous mutant rat (rSey2/rSey2) brains.

Project description:Novel target genes for the two transcription factor isoforms Pax6 and Pax6(5a) were identified by generating mouse embryonic fibroblast cell lines stably expressing either Pax6 or Pax6(5a), and comparing their gene expression pattern with the original mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line. Flp-In-3T3 cell lines were generated according to the manufacturers instruction (Invitrogen), using the mouse Pax6 and Pax6(5a) cDNA as insert. Correct inserts were verified by PCR, sequencing and Westernblot.

Project description:The coupling between cell-cycle exit and onset of differentiation is a common feature throughout the developing nervous system, but the mechanisms that link these processes are mostly unknown. Although the transcription factor Pax6 was implicated in both proliferation and differentiation of multiple regions within the CNS, its contribution to the transition between these successive states remains elusive. To gain insight into the role of Pax6 during the transition from proliferating progenitors to differentiating precursors, we investigated cell-cycle and transcriptomic changes occurring in Pax6- retinal progenitor cells (RPCs). Our analyses revealed a unique cell-cycle phenotype of the Pax6-deficient RPCs, which included a reduced number of cells in the S phase, an increased number of cells exiting the cell cycle, and delayed differentiation kinetics of Pax6- precursors. These alterations were accompanied by co-expression of factors that promote (Ccnd1, Ccnd2, Ccnd3) and inhibit (P27kip1 and P27kip2) the cell cycle. Further characterization of the changes in transcription profile of the Pax6-deficient RPCs revealed abrogated expression of multiple factors which are known to be involved in regulating proliferation of RPCs, including the transcription factors Vsx2, Nr2e1, Plagl1 and Hedgehog signaling. These findings provide novel insight into the molecular mechanism mediating the pleiotropic activity of Pax6 in RPCs. The results further suggest that rather than conveying a linear effect on RPCs, such as promoting their proliferation and inhibiting their differentiation, Pax6 regulates multiple transcriptional networks which function simultaneously, thereby conferring the capacity to proliferate, assume multiple cell fates and execute the differentiation program into retinal lineages. The data contains 3 control and 3 Pax6 negative samples representing biological repeats. Each sample was prepared from ~1.8 million cells taken from the distal retina of either E12 alpha-Cre or Pax6 floxed alpha-Cre animals. Distally located retinal progenitors expressing Cre and eGFP were separated using FACS.

Project description:DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) block replication fork progression by inhibiting DNA strand separation. Repair of ICLs requires sequential incisions, translesion DNA synthesis, and homologous recombination, but the full set of factors involved in these transactions remains unknown. Here we established CHROmatin MASS spectrometry (CHROMASS) to study protein recruitment dynamics during perturbed DNA replication in Xenopus egg extracts. Using CHROMASS, we systematically monitored protein assembly and disassembly at ICL-containing chromatin. Among numerous prospective new DNA repair factors we identified SLF1 and SLF2, which form a complex with RAD18 and together define a new pathway that suppresses genome instability by recruiting the SMC5/6 cohesion complex to DNA lesions. Our study provides the first global analysis of an entire DNA repair pathway and reveals the mechanism of SMC5/6 relocalization to damaged DNA in vertebrate cells.

Project description:The hemibiotrophic fungal pathogen Colletotrichum graminicola is the causal agent of anthracnose disease on maize stalks and leaves. After the formation of appressoria the host cell wall is penetrated by the conversion of appressorial turgor pressure into forceful ejection of a penetration peg. Subsequently, C. graminicola establishes biotrophic hyphae in the penetrated epidermis cell at around 36 hours post inoculation (hpi) until a switch of hyphal morphology and lifestyle takes place during the colonization of neighboring host cells at around 72 hpi. During the ensuing necrotrophic growth, dark necrotic lesions are formed that are visible as anthracnose symptoms. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression during the infection process of Colletotrichum graminicola in its host plant to get insight into the defense response of this compatible interaction and into the metabolic reprogramming needed to supply the fungus with nutrients. In three independent experiments, maize plants were infected with conidia of the Colletotrichum graminicola strain CgM2 by spray inoculation of leaves. Samples from infected leaves were taken at 36 and 96 hours post infection, corresponding to initial biotrophic and necrotrophic phase, respectively. Samples from uninfected control plants were taken at the same time points.

Project description:C57BL/6 mice were maintained in specific pathogen-free conditions in accordance with the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Listeria monocytogenes (clinical isolate 10403s) was from V. Boyartchuk (NTNU, Trondheim, Norway) and infected as previously described (PMID 24477914) for 24 hours before harvesting the spleen. PBS was used as control. . Single cell suspensions from spleens were used to make total RNA. 4 μg of total RNA was used to generate libraries for RNA-sequencing (Illumina unstranded mRNA kits). Samples were sized, quantified and validated on a Bioanalyzer. Libraries were sequenced on a High-Seq System (Illumina 2000, San Diego, CA) as paired-end 100 reads. Sequence reads were aligned to the mouse genome (assembly NCBI m37/mm9) using TopHat.Gene level read counts based on the resulting alignments were calculated using HTSeq. The DESeq R package was used to normalize gene counts, calculate fold change in gene expression, estimate p-values and adjusted p-values for change in gene expression values, and to perform a variance stabilized transformation on read counts.

Project description:Embryologically the tooth is derived from both the ectoderm and neural crest (ectomesenchyme). It is often used as a model to study how epithelialmesenchymal interactions can control differentiation and morphogenesis. During early development organs of ectodermal origin share both a set of signalling molecules and exhibit common morphological features, subsequently proceeding along separate developmental programs.<br><br>Tooth development is a continuous process that can be divided into the initiation -, bud -, cap -, and bell-stages. In mice, tooth development begins at embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5), by thickening of the dental epithelium, while mineralization of enamel and dentin in first molar starts at postnatal day 0 (P0) (5). A multistep and complex process of the gene expression are involved in the early stage of tooth development. So far expression of more than 1300 genes and/or proteins have been detected during tooth germ development by microarrays/immunocytochemistry/in situ hybridization. Studies with mutant mice have identified a number of genes that regulate tooth development and morphology. For example, deficiency of Lef-1 or P63 arrests tooth development at early stages. Deficiency of Msx1 or Pax9 results in arrest of tooth development at the bud stage , while deficiency of Runx2/Cbfa1 or Sp3 inhibits cyto-differentiation of ameloblasts and/or odontoblasts. Shh is required for normal growth and morphogenesis, but is not essential for cyto-differentiation of the ameloblast and odontoblast populations. Ameloblastin and amelogenin knock-out mice develop severe enamel hypoplasia with abnormal ameloblast differentiation. <br><br>Recently, new connections between retinoid metabolism and PPAR responses have been identified. It has also been shown that endogenous retinoic acid is necessary for the initiation of odontogenesis , and that some of the genes that catalyze the oxidation of retinaldehyde into retinoic acid, exhibit distinct patterns of expression in developing murine teeth. Little is known about functions of PPAR-a as regards tooth germs or mature teeth. It is, however, likely that mitochondrial oxidative metabolism well as fatty acid metabolism is enhanced in late odontogenesis. These are metabolic activities which in other tissues are stimulated by PPAR-a agonists.<br><br>For this reason it was of interest to carry out comparative gene expression profiling of the first molar tooth germs of PPAR-a knock-out mouse and of the corresponding wild-type mice. The results suggest marked differences in gene expression, parts of which may be associated with an observed hypomineralization of enamel in the mature PPAR-a knock-out murine tooth.

Project description:The mechanisms by which the early spatiotemporal expression patterns of transcription factors such as Pax6 regulate the region-specific proliferation rates of neural progenitors are poorly understood. Pax6 is expressed in a gradient across the developing cortex and is essential for normal corticogenesis. We found that constitutive or conditional loss of Pax6 increases cortical progenitor proliferation by amounts that vary regionally with normal Pax6 levels. We compared the gene expression profiles of equivalent Pax6-expressing progenitors isolated from Pax6+/+ and Pax6-/- cortices and identified many negatively-regulated cell cycle genes including those encoding Cyclins and Cdks. Biochemical assays indicated that Pax6 directly represses Cdk6 expression. Cyclin/Cdk repression inhibits retinoblastoma protein (pRb) phosphorylation, thereby limiting the transcription of genes directly promoting mitosis, and we showed that Pax6 inhibits pRb phosphorylation and represses several genes involved in DNA replication. Our results indicate that Pax6M-bM-^@M-^Ys modulation of the cell cycles of cortical progenitors is regional and direct. Two condition experiment, Pax6sey/sey vs Pax6+/+ cortical progenitor cells from lateral cortex. 3 biological replicates. Each replicate contains RNA from cells pooled from 4 individual E12.5 embryos
