Project description:Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) were isolated from the colon of Villin-CreERT2, Rnf20-flox and Rnf40-flox mice two weeks upon the Tamoxifen-induced, intestinal knockout of Rnf20 and Rnf40. RNA was isolated from snap-frozen IECs to perform mRNA-seq.

Project description:We wanted to assess the role of a specific smooth muscle protein (MMP17) in two different intestinal compartments, the epithelium (crypts) and the smooth muscle. To do that we isolate intestinal crypts from wild-type (WT) and knockout (KO, Mmp17-/-) mice, and obtained clean strips of smooth muscle. After muscle dissociation, we obtained RNA directly from crypts and muscle, and it was used for RNA-seq. By comparing WT and KO samples we observed a higher impact in gene expression affecting crypts, even though MMP17 is only expressed in muscle. This helped us to identify altered signaling pathways in KO crypts that linked MMP17 with SMAD4 and BMP signaling.

Project description:WAC is a known positive regulator of (macro)autophagy. WAC also forms a complex with RNF20/RNF40 to promote H2B monoubiquitination and hence to affect transcriptional regulation. This study addresses whether the WAC/RNF20/RNF40 complex regulates autophagy through effects on gene expression. WAC, RNF20 and RNF40 were knocked-down using pools of siRNAs in HEK293A cells. Each knockdown was in triplicate and the control was RISCfree siRNA. mRNA expression profiles were investigated using an Illumina HT12v4 Bead Array.

Project description:Cervical cancer treatments sometimes prove ineffective, indicating a need for personalized therapies. The present study demonstrate a strong correlation between high levels of the RNF20/RNF40 protein complex and aggressive cervical cancer. Our transcriptome analyzes uncovered a previously unknown role of this protein complex regulating peroxisomal pathway genes, which are crucial for lipid metabolism and the balance of reactive oxygen species. The loss of RNF20/RNF40 leads to reduced effectiveness of these genes, increasing lipid peroxidation and inducing a form of programmed cell death known as ferroptosis. These findings suggest that targeting the RNF20/RNF40 protein complex and its regulation capabilities could lead to new treatments for aggressive cervical cancer.

Project description:The role of Tfr1 in non-erythroid tissues remains elusive due to the embryonic lethality of the Tfr1 global knockout mouse model. To bypass this problem, we generated a mouse model in which Tfr1 was conditionally deleted in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). These mice developed severe IEC disruption, characterized by blunted villi, edema, loss of proliferative intervillus IECs, accumulation of lipids, and early neonatal lethality. Strikingly, a wide range of genes associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition were highly upregulated in IEC lacking Tfr1. Additionally, candidate vesicular transport and sorting genes implicated in lipid absorption and trafficking were downregulated. Surprisingly, the presence of a mutant allele of Tfr1, which is unable to bind to iron-loaded transferrin, was capable of rescuing the lethality, intestinal epithelial homeostasis, and proliferation in a majority of the Tfr1 conditional knockout mice. 9 samples (3 wildtype, 3 knockout, 3 rescue) were prepared from the intestinal epithelial cells isolated from the small intestine and proximal colon.

Project description:Genomic analyses of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) have identified significant contribution from mutations affecting cilia genes and chromatin remodeling genes; however, the mechanism(s) connecting chromatin remodeling to CHD are unknown. Histone H2B mono-ubiquitination (H2Bub1) is catalyzed by the RNF20 complex consisting of RNF20, RNF40 and UBE2B. Here, we show significant enrichment of loss-of-function mutations affecting H2Bub1 in CHD patients (enrichment=6.01, p=1.67x10-03), some of whom had abnormal laterality associated with cilia dysfunction. In Xenopus, knockdown of rnf20 and rnf40 results in abnormal heart looping, defective development of left-right asymmetry and impaired cilia motility. Rnf20, Rnf40 and Ube2b affect LR patterning and cilia synergistically. Examination of global H2Bub1 level in Xenopus embryos shows that H2Bub1 is developmentally regulated and requires Rnf20. To examine gene-specific H2Bub1, we performed ChIP-seq of mouse ciliated and non-ciliated tissues and showed tissue-specific H2Bub1 marks significantly enriched at cilia genes including the transcription factor Rfx3. Rnf20 knockdown results in decreased levels of rfx3 mRNA in Xenopus, and exogenous rfx3 can rescue the Rnf20 depletion phenotype. These data suggest that Rnf20 functions at the Rfx3 locus regulating cilia motility and cardiac situs and identify H2Bub1 as an upstream transcriptional regulator controlling tissue-specific expression of cilia genes. Our findings mechanistically link the two functional gene ontologies that have been implicated in human CHD: chromatin remodeling and cilia function.

Project description:In this study, we focused on elucidating the role of Ring Finger Protein 40 (RNF40) in bone development by using a conditional knockout mouse approach during different stages of osteoblast (OB) differentiation and maturation. RNF40 forms an obligate E3 ubiquitin ligase complex together with RNF20 and mediates the monoubiquitination of lysine 120 of histone H2B (H2BK120ub1). We provide evidence that RNF40 regulates OB differentiation in a stage-dependent manner. Additionally, we show that RNF40 is required for bone cell crosstalk whereby loss of RNF40 leads to a reduction in osteoclast numbers and function through modulation of vitamin D receptor (VDR)-induced Rankl expression in OBs. Taken together, these data imply an important role of RNF40-mediated H2Bub1 in bone formation and remodeling and provide a basis for further investigation of its anti-resorptive potential for the treatment of conditions such as osteoporosis or cancer-associated osteolysis. In this study we show that RNF40 is required in earlier stages of osteoblast differentiation and is involved in bone cell crosstalk by regulating vitamin D induced Rankl expression
