Project description:We used ATLAS-seq to map the sites of integration of an engineered LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposon into the genome of HeLa S3 cells. Then, we compared the position of these sites with publicly available genomic datasets. In order to cross-corroborate our findings with datasets obtained in the same cell stock as used in our retrotransposition assays, we also performed H3K4me1 ChIP-seq.

Project description:Although it is recognised that CD8+ T memory stem cells (Tscm) are heterogeneous in phenotype and function, very few studies have sought to systematically examine these characteristics, particularly in human samples, as the population as a whole is rare and antigen-specific cells even more so. For each T cell subsets investigated, we have performed optimized RNAseq for small number of cells by adapting the Smartseq2 protocol from scRNAseq. The mini-bulk number of cells was chosen to reduce heterogeneity but also maintain an adequate transcriptomics signal. Adapted from Smartseq2 protocol from scRNAseq described by Picelli et al, cell lysis buffer was prepared by adding 1 μl RNase inhibitor (Clontech, Mountain View, USA) to 19 μl Triton X‐100 solution (0.2% v/v). CD8 T cell subpopulations (TN, TSCM, TCM and TEM together with TSCM CXCR3hi/lo and CD122hi/lo) were bulk sorted (50 cells/sample, with replicates) directly into 96-well PCR plates containing 2 μl lysis buffer, 1 μl dNTP mix (10 mM) and 1 μl oligo‐dT primer at 5 μM. Plates were stored at -80 °C until ready to perform the assay. Reverse-transcription and PCR amplifications were performed as described, with the exception of reducing the IS PCR primer to a 50 nM final concentration and increasing the number of cycles to 28. Sequencing libraries were prepared using the Nextera XT Library Preparation Kit (Illumina; San Diego, USA) and sequencing was performed on Illumina NextSeq500 sequencing platforms with 2×150bp paired-end read output, the read depth was approximately 1.3 million reads per sample.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons present a powerful new model of neurological disease. Previous work has established that differentiation protocols produce cortical neurons but little has been done to characterise these at cellular resolution. In particular, it is unclear to what extent in vitro two-dimensional, relatively disordered culture conditions recapitulate the development of in vivo cortical layer identity. Single cell multiplex RT-qPCR was used to interrogate the expression of genes previously implicated in cortical layer or phenotypic identity in individual cells. Unexpectedly, 22.7% of neurons analysed frequently co-expressed canonical fetal deep and upper cortical layer markers, and this co-expression was also present at the level of translated protein. By comparing our results to available single cell RNA-seq data from human fetal and adult brain, we observed that this co-expression of layer markers was also seen in primary tissue. These results suggest that establishing neuronal layer identity in iPSC-derived or primary cortical neurons using canonical marker genes transcripts is unlikely to be informative. Single cell RNA-seq of 16 iPSC-derived cortical neurons. This dataset was used for normalization purposes for GSE67835.

Project description:DNA methylation predominantly occurs at CG dinucleotides in vertebrate genomes, however, non-CG methylation (mCH) is also detectable in vertebrate tissues, most notably in the nervous system. In mammalian brains, it is well established that: i) mCH is targeted to CAC trinucleotides by DNMT3A, ii) enriched in gene bodies and repetitive elements, and iii) associated with transcriptional repression. However, the possible conservation of these mCH features in zebrafish is largely unexplored and has yet to be functionally demonstrated. In this study, we analyse the transcriptomes (RNA-seq) and methylome (RRBS) of developing zebrafish larvae (1-6 weeks) and adult brain (6 month). We additionally elucidate a role for dnmt3aa/dnmt3ab in mCH deposition via CRISP/CAS9 KO and WGBS of 4 week old brains

Project description:Ectopic expression of the double homeodomain transcription factor DUX4 causes facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Mechanisms of action of DUX4 are currently unknown. Using immortalized human myoblasts with a titratable DUX4 transgene, we identify by mass spectrometry an interaction between the DUX4 C-terminus and the histone acetyltransferases p300/CBP. Chromatin immunoprecipitation shows that DUX4 recruits p300 to its target gene, ZSCAN4, displaces histone H3 from the center of its binding site, and induces H3K27Ac in its vicinity, but C-terminal deleted DUX4 does not. We show that a DUX4 minigene, bearing only the homeodomains and C-terminus, is transcriptionally functional and cytotoxic, and that overexpression of a nuclear targeted C-terminus impairs the ability of WT DUX4 to interact with p300 and to regulate target genes. Genomic profiling of DUX4, histone H3, and H3 modifications reveals that DUX4 binds two classes of locus: DNase accessible H3K27Ac-rich chromatin and inaccessible H3K27Ac-depleted MaLR-enriched chromatin. At this latter class, it acts as a pioneer factor, recruiting H3K27 acetyltransferase activity and opening the locus for transcription. In concert with local increased H3K27Ac, the strong H3K27Ac peaks at distant sites are significantly depleted of H3K27Ac, thus DUX4 uses its C-terminus to induce a global reorganization of H3K27 acetylation. Two biological samples were analyzed with 4 antibodies for ChIP-Seq and in triplicate for RNA-Seq.

Project description:Foxk proteins are transcriptional regulators implicated in key biological processes such as glycolysis, autophagy and cell cycle regulation, among others. Here we employ targeted morpholino knockdown to deplete Foxk1, Fokx2, and Foxk2-1 proteins in developing zebrafish embryos. We demonstrate that the loss of Foxk transcription factors causes genome-wide transcriptional misregulation, characterised by upregulation of autophagy-related genes and downregulation of cell cycle regulators. The phenotype is embryonic lethal with the majority of embryos not surviving past 24hpf.

Project description:This experiment was designed to probe the function of Activin/Nodal signalling in the deposition of m6A in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). hPSCs were cultured in presence of Activin or subjected to short-term inhibition of Activin/Nodal signalling for 2h using the receptor antagonist SB-431542 (IP). The global abundance of m6A was then measured by nuclear-enriched methylated RNA immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing (NeMeRIP-seq). Pre-NeMeRIP input RNA was used as control to normalise for the changes in gene expression in the two conditions.

Project description:We used state of the art mass spectrometry and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to provide the first integrated proteomic, phosphoproteomic and transcriptomic atlas of Arabidopsis. For this we measured 30 different Arabidopsis tissues from adult plants, seedlings, callus and cell culture samples to an average depth of 17,603 +/- 1,317 transcripts, 14,430 +/- 911 proteins and 14,689 +/- 2,509 phosphorylation sites. In total we provide protein expression data for 66 % and transcript expression data for 90 % of the annotated protein coding genes (Araport11). For four plant organs we additionally measured consecutive growth stages (rosette leaves, 13 stages; flower, 6 stages; silique, 5 stages; seed, 5 stages).

Project description:Caspases, which are key effectors of apoptosis, have demonstrated non-apoptotic functions. One of these functions is the differentiation into macrophages of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to Colony-Stimulating Factor-1 (CSF1). Conversely, GM-CSF induces the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages in a caspase-independent manner. Macrophages generated by CSF1 and GM-CSF have distinct polarity. Macrophage polarization plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diverse human diseases as cancer, leading us to explore if caspase inhibition would affect macrophage polarization. To explore the role of caspases in CSF1 differentiation, we used human monocytes sorted from buffy coats treated by cytokines. We reported that caspase inhibition delays the ex vivo differentiation of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to CSF1 and modifies the phenotype of generated macrophages, e.g. cell shape, surface markers. Moreover, by RNAseq, we observed that the macrophages generated in presence of CSF1 and QVD are different from CSF1-treated monocytes and from GM-CSF-treated monocytes. Cell cycle and focal adhesion-related pathway genes were selectively down-regulated. This study confirms the importance of caspase activation in CSF1 differentiation.
