Project description:This dataset has been designed to test whether codons in mRNAs and anticodons in tRNAs vary in order to maximize translation in specific cellular conditions in mammals. Prokaryotes and simple unicellular eukaryotes optimize their translational rates by adjusting the codons in the protein-coding transcriptome to the available pool of anticodons in the tRNA transcriptome. We found no evidence supporting this mechanism in mammals, even when subsets of genes were considered, such as those found in Gene Ontology functional categories or in tissue-specific transcriptional signatures. The simplest explanation accounting for the observed codon distributions in mammals is the variation in GC content of gene categories. GC variation across the mammalian genome is most likely to result from the interplay of genome repair and gene duplication mechanisms, rather than selective pressures caused by codon-driven translational rates. This work is part of experiment series: ChIP-Seq E-MTAB-958 and E-MTAB-2326.

Project description:GSK3b signaling has been implicated in the pathophysiology of bipolar affective disorder based on the inhibitory effect of lithium salts on this pathway. This has been supported by a recent genome wide association study. In addition, GSK3b signaling may also play a role in schizophrenia, an idea that is based on the finding that the protein encoded by the schizophrenia candidate gene DISC1 inhibits GSK3b. Gene expression is affected by GSK3b signaling through the activation of the transcription factor b-catenin, which modulates expression through a protein-protein binding interaction with members of the TCF/LEF family. To identify genes targeted by GSK3b/b-catenin, investigators have used expression profiling in lithium treated cells and animals. Gene knockdown and transfection are other experimental methodologies one can employ. However, these approaches are not possible using human brain tissue. Consequently, we used ChIP-chip to identify promoters bound by b-catenin as an indirect method for identifying genes targeted by GSK3b. Fetal brain was used because schizophrenia is viewed as a neurodevelopmental disorder. In addition, fetal brain tissue is not affected by the confounding factors associated with postmortem tissue (postmortem delay, cause of death, brain pH, use of medication and other environmental factors). We carried out two complete promoter array hybridizations on different biological isolates using the 385K two-Array Human Promoter Set developed by Nimblegen/Roche. Significant enrichment for b-catenin immunoprecipitates was determined in each experiment if the log2 ratio of signal obtained for the b-catenin antibody compared with control was below an FDR<0.2 using NimbleScan. NimbleScan reports three different levels of enrichment (peaks) based on the FDR score, as described in methods. Since whole brain tissue was used in these experiments, we chose the least conservative FDR (<0.2) to reduce the type II error (false negative) rate, which could be caused by enrichment at some promoters in a subset of cells being diluted by the absence of b-catenin immunoprecipitates at those loci in other cells. A total of 640 gene promoters showed evidence for b-catenin binding on two arrays. We validated enrichment at 9 gene promoters using real time PCR. The 640 genes are analyzed using SLEP (Sullivan Lab Evidence Project, http://slep.unc.edu). Analysis of the SLEP database was restricted to genome wide association studies (GWAS) and copy number variants (CNVs) in ASD, BD and SZ. In addition, a gene was scored as a potential candidate if it fell within a linkage peak or if multiple positive association studies were found upon a candidate gene analysis. Promoters for 24 genes implicated in these disorders were targeted by b-catenin. Of these, a total of 16 genes are very strong candidates based on unbiased genome-wide surveys (GWAS and CNV screening). The other 8 have been implicated by linkage analysis and candidate gene analysis, which are the least robust genetic methods for targeting specific genes in psychiatric disorders. We carried out a similar analysis on 640 genes that did not show evidence for enrichment in the b-catenin ChIP-chip. Only 5 genes were found, none of which are GWAS or CNV targets. Based on the finding that five candidate genes were found in a group of 640 randomly selected genes, while 24 were identified in the ChIP-chip experiment, the binding of b-catenin to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder candidate gene promoters is highly significant (p = 6.5 x 10-12). The findings suggest that many seemingly disparate candidate genes for psychiatric disorders can be grouped into the GSK3b/b-catenin signaling pathway. The results could also have therapeutic implications in helping to identify bipolar patients who respond best to lithium, as well as identify patients with schizophrenia who might benefit from the drug. Immunoprecipitates were generated with an antibody to b-Catenin

Project description:The transcription cofactor Yki drives growth and proliferation in part by controlling mitochondrial network formation. To determine if Yki and Sd are directly bound to DNA corresponding to mitochondrial genes, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation and whole genome tiling arrays (ChIP-chip) to identify regions bound by these factors in eye-antenna and wing imaginal discs. The supplementary .bed files contain all Yki or Sd binding sites (called at 5% FDR) in wing or eye-antenna imaginal discs, as well as shared Sd+Yki sites and associated target genes. Wing or eye-antenna imaginal discs ChIPped for Yki or Sd-GFP vs. input DNA from corresponding imaginal discs.

Project description:The Hox genes are responsible for generating morphological diversity along the anterior-posterior axis during animal development. The Drosophila Hox gene Ultrabithorax (Ubx), for example, is required for specifying the identity of the third thoracic (T3) segment of the adult, which includes the dorsal haltere, an appendage required for flight, and the ventral T3 leg. Ubx mutants show homeotic transformations of the T3 leg towards the identity of the T2 leg and the haltere towards the wing. All Hox genes, including Ubx, encode homeodomain containing transcription factors, raising the question of what target genes Ubx regulates to generate these adult structures. To address this question, we carried out whole genome ChIP-chip studies to identify all of the Ubx bound regions in the haltere and T3 leg imaginal discs, which are the precursors to these adult structures. In addition, we used ChIP-chip to identify the sites bound by the Hox cofactor, Homothorax (Hth). This is a dataset generated by the Drosophila Regulatory Elements modENCODE Project led by Kevin P. White at the University of Chicago. This dataset was generated in collaboration with Richard S. Mann at Columbia University. It contains ChIP-chip data on Affymetrix Drosophila Tiling 2.0R arrays for multiple transcription factor antibodies in multiple Drosophila tissues. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Haltere or leg imaginal discs ChIPped for Ubx or Hth vs. input DNA from corresponding imaginal discs. For each combination of tissue and antibody, ChIP experiments have been performed and hybridized on Affymetrix Drosophila Tiling 2.0R arrays. At least 3 biological replicates for the ChIP sample have been hybridized.

Project description:KSR1 is a scaffolding protein for the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway, which is one of the most frequently altered pathways in human cancers. Previous results have shown that KSR1 has a critical role in mutant RAS mediated transformation. Here, we examined the role of KSR1 in mutant BRAF transformation. We used CRISPR/Cas9 to knock out KSR1 in a BRAFV600E transformed melanoma cell line. KSR1 loss produced a complex phenotype characterized by impaired proliferation, cell cycle defects, decreased transformation, decreased invasive migration, increased cellular senescence, and increased apoptosis. To decipher this phenotype, we used a combination of proteomic ERK substrate profiling, global protein expression profiling, and biochemical validation assays. The results suggest that KSR1 directs ERK to phosphorylate substrates that have a critical role in ensuring cell survival. The results further indicate that KSR1 loss induces the activation of p38 Mitogen- Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) and subsequent cell cycle aberrations and senescence. In summary, KSR1 function plays a key role in oncogenic BRAF transformation.

Project description:Notch signalling plays crucial roles in mediating cell fate choices in all metazoans largely by specifying the transcriptional output of one cell in response to a neighbouring cell. The DNA-binding protein RBPJ is the principle effector of this pathway in mammals and together with the transcription factor moiety of Notch (NICD) it regulates the expression of target genes. The prevalent view presumes that RBPJ statically occupies consensus binding sites while exchanging repressors for activators in response to NICD. We present the first specific RBPJ chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-throughput sequencing study in mammalian cells. To dissect the mode of transcriptional regulation by RBPJ and identify its direct targets, whole genome binding profiles were generated for RBPJ, its coactivator p300, NICD and the histone H3 modifications H3K4me3, H3K4me1 and H3K27ac in myogenic cells under active or inhibitory Notch signalling conditions. Our results demonstrate dynamic binding of RBPJ in response to Notch activation at essentially all sites co-occupied by NICD. Additionally, we identify a distinct set of sites where RBPJ recruits neither NICD nor p300, and binds DNA statically, irrespective of Notch activity. These findings significantly modify our views on how RBPJ and Notch signalling mediate their activities and consequently impact on cell fate decisions. ChIP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) is followed by deep sequencing to generate genome-wide patterns of RBP-J binding in mouse C2C12 cells under various conditions. Cells were either Notch activated by exposure to immobilized ligand or by overexpression of NICDGFP, or Notch inhibited by treatment with DAPT. Notch activation and inhibition treatments were applied for 6h and 24h. In addition to RBP-J, p300 and NICDGFP were profiled by ChIP-Seq and gene expression was assessed by RNA-Seq.
