Project description:This study examines gene expression differences between infected larvae from different maternal infection backgrounds to try to understand the immunological basis of invertebrate immune priming. Female Tribolium castaneum beetles were either jabbed with sterile saline, heat killed Bt, or left naïve. 15 Offspring from the first and second broods were infected with Bt and 24 hours later pooled by treatment and flash frozen Beetles from saline and primed maternal backgrounds are compared to naïve infected Pooled whole larvae, custom array for T. castaneum, 1 replicate per treatment comparison. Same naïve sample used for both arrays

Project description:ChIP-chip was performed using chromatin isolated from formaldehyde crosslinked, staged embryos, and affinity purified antibodies against 21 transcription factors (including: BCD, HB, KR, KNI, GT, CAD, HKB, TLL, D, FTZ, HRY, PRD, RUN, SLP1, DA, DL, MAD, MED, SHN, SNA, TWI) that belong to 11 DNA binding domain families, specify distinct developmental fates; as well as the general transcription factor TFIIB, and RNA POLII. Affinity purification of the antibodies was performed with E.coli expressed His-tag fusions of the whole protein (designated as 3, e.g. anti-DL 3), the N-terminal portion of the full length protein (designiated as 1, e.g. anti-BCD 1), or the C-terminal portion of the protein (designated as 2, e.g. anti-BCD 2). While for most factors, we only used one antibody in the ChIP-chip study, for some factors, two or more antibodies that recognize non-overlapping parts of each of the proteins were used. The chromatin immunoprecitation and hybridization for each antibody were carried out in duplicates, and in each chromatin immunoprecitation and hybridization series, two mock IP controls and two input DNA controls were also generated. The microarray used in this study is the Affymetrix Drosophila genomic DNA tiling array, which has about 3 million oligo pairs (perfect match-mismatch), covering the whole euchromatic sequences of the fly genome at a resolution of about 35 bp.

Project description:The role of Polycomb group (PcG) was studied on RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) pausing phenomenon. Wild type and Polycomb mutant (esc) embryos were used for ChIP-Seq experiments using Pol II and histone methylation antibodies. Enhanced Pol II occupancy was observed for thousands of genes in esc mutant embryos, including genes not known to be bound by PRC2 or having H3K27me3 associated. Most of these genes exhibit a concomitant reduction in H3K27me3 and increase in H3K4me3 at promoter-proximal regions. Silent genes lacking promoter-associated paused Pol II in wild-type embryos are converted into âpoisedâ genes with paused Pol II in esc mutants. We suggest that this conversion of silent genes into poised genes might render differentiated cell types susceptible to switches in identity in PcG mutants. ChIP-Seq data was generated for antibodies against Pol-II, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 in both wild type and esc mutant Drosophila embryos (0-2hr, 8-12hr, and 18-24hr embryos). In addition GRO-Seq data was generated for 18-24hr esc mutant embryos.

Project description:In vivo crosslinking studies suggest that the Drosophila transcription factor Bicoid (Bcd) binds to several thousand sites during early embryogenesis, but it is not clear how many of these binding events are functionally important. In contrast, reporter gene studies have identified more than 60 Bcd-dependent enhancers, all of which contain clusters of the consensus binding sequence TAATCC. These studies also identified clusters of TAATCC motifs (inactive fragments) that failed to drive Bcd-dependent activation. In general, active fragments showed higher levels of Bcd-binding in vivo, and were enriched in predicted binding sites for the ubiquitous maternal protein Zelda (Zld). Here we test the role of Zld in Bcd-mediated binding and transcription. Removal of Zld function and mutations in Zld sites caused significant reductions in Bcd-binding to known enhancers, and variable effects on the activation and spatial positioning of Bcd-dependent expression patterns. Genome-wide binding experiments in Zld mutants showed variable effects on Bcd-binding peaks, ranging from strong reductions to significantly enhanced levels of binding. Increases in Bcd binding caused the precocious Bcd-dependent activation of genes that are normally not expressed in early embryos, suggesting that Zld controls the genome-wide binding profile of Bcd at the qualitative level, and is critical for selecting target genes for activation in the early embryo. These results underscore the importance of combinatorial binding in enhancer function, and provide data that will help predict regulatory activities based on DNA sequence. 1-3 hour wild type and zelda mutant embryos were examined for Bicoid binding using Illumina HiSeq 2000. The Bcd antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antiserum raised against full length Drosophila Bcd protein (Ochoa-Espinosa et al. 2009 PNAS). The antiserum was further purified using the Protein A Antibody Purification Kit (Sigma) for ChIP-seq.

Project description:Nucleosome structure and positioning play pivotal roles in gene regulation, DNA repair and other essential processes in eukaryotic cells. Nucleosomal DNA is thought to be uniformly inaccessible to DNA binding and processing factors, such as MNase. Here, we show, however, that nucleosome accessibility and sensitivity to MNase varies. Digestion of Drosophila chromatin with two distinct concentrations of MNase revealed two types of nucleosomes: sensitive and resistant. MNase-resistant nucleosome arrays are less accessible to low concentrations of MNase, whereas MNase-sensitive arrays are degraded by high concentrations. MNase-resistant nucleosomes assemble on sequences depleted of A/T and enriched in G/C containing dinucleotides. In contrast, MNase-sensitive nucleosomes form on A/T rich sequences represented by transcription start and termination sites, enhancers and DNase hypersensitive sites. Lowering of cell growth temperature to ~10°C stabilizes MNase-sensitive nucleosomes suggesting that variations in sensitivity to MNase are related to either thermal fluctuations in chromatin fiber or the activity of enzymatic machinery. In the vicinity of active genes and DNase hypersensitive sites nucleosomes are organized into synchronous, periodic arrays. These patterns are likely to be caused by “phasing” nucleosomes off a potential barrier formed by DNA-bound factors and we provide an extensive biophysical framework to explain this effect.
