Project description:To study the role of distinct ATRX aberrations in neuroblastoma we created isogenic ATRX aberrant models using CRISPR-Cas9 in several neuroblastoma cell lines and one tumoroid. We created ATRX knock-out models, ATRX in-frame exon 2-10 deletions and ATRX in-frame exon 2-13 deletions. Additionally, we included patient-derived models data (i.e. cell line data and one tumoroid).

Project description:RNA sequencing of isogenic ATRX wild-type (WT) and ATRX knockout (KO) paired isogenic cell lines treated with either 1.)interferon stimulatory DNA (ISD) and harvested 24 hours after treatment, 2)4 Gy ionizing radiation and harvested 36 hours after treatment, or 3) untreated control. These experiments help determine the differential impact of ATRX mutational status on cGAS-STING and type-I interferon signaling in soft tissue sarcoma.
Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by massive neurodegeneration and multiple changes in cellular processes, including neurogenesis. Proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a central role in AD. Due to varying APP processing, several beta-amyloid peptides are generated. In contrast to the form with 40 amino acids, the variant with 42 amino acids is thought to be the pathogenic form triggering the pathophysiological cascade in AD. Here, we studied the transcriptomic response to increased or decreased Abeta42 levels generated in human neuroblastoma cells. Genome-wide expression profiles (Affymetrix)were used to analyze the cellular response to the changed Abeta42 and Abeta40-levels. <br><br>Human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y is a thrice cloned (SK-N-SH -> SH-SY -> SH-SY5 -> SH-SY5Y) subline of the neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH which was isolated and established in 1970. This cell line has 47 chromosomes. The cells possess a unique marker comprised of a chromosome 1 with a complex insertion of an additional copy of a 1q segment into the long arm, resulting in trisomy of 1q. The cell lines used in this study are SHSY5Y transfected with the constructs pCEP-C99I45F, pCEP-C99V50F, pCEP-C99 wildtype or mock transfected with an empty vector. Independent cell clones of each transfected line were used to provide biological replicates.<br> Overexpressed C99 I45F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in high Abeta42, but low Abeta40 levels.<br> Overexpressed C99V50F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in low Abeta42, but high Abeta40 levels.<br>Overexpressed C99 wildtype is intracellularly cleaved resulting in medium Abeta42 and Abeta40 levels<br>Mock is the SHSY5Y cell line transfected with the empty vector pCEP (Invitrogen) as a negative control
Project description:Here, we report that ATRX co-localizes with the H3K9-methyl transferase SETDB1 (also known as ESET), the co-repressor TRIM28 (also known as KAP1), and the transcription factor ZNF274 at 3â exons of Zinc Finger Genes (ZNFs) containing an atypical H3K9me3/H3K36me3 chromatin signature. Disruption of ATRX and ZNF274 leads to a significant reduction of H3K9me3, particularly at the 3â ZNF exons and other atypical chromatin regions, higher percentages of DNA damage, and defects in cell cycle. Taken together, our studies suggest that ATRX binds the 3â exons of ZNFs to maintain genomic stability through the regulation of their H3K9me3 levels XL-MNase ChIP-seq of ATRX was performed in the erythroleukemic cell line K562 and the Neuroblastoma cell line LAN6. Two independent replicates using different ATRX antibodies were performed in K562. Additionally, Native ChIP-seq of H3K9me3 in LAN6, ATRX WT and ATRX KO K562 cells was performed. Input samples were sequenced as control.
Project description:To understand the molecular and cellular impact of p53 loss on gene expression profile of multiple myeloma cells, we generated isogenic pairs of TP53 wild-type and knockout cells by CRISPR/Cas9. We then performed RNAseq analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of three p53-KO clones and one scrambled control cells.
Project description:RNA sequencing of a primary tumors from a sarcoma genetically engineerted mouse model with activation of oncogenic Kras, deletion of p53 and deletion of Atrx, as compared to control sarcomas with identical genetic alterations but with wild-type Atrx. Tumors were either untreated or recieved 20 Gy of ionizing radiation and were harvested at 4 hrs, 3 day, or 6 day timepoints post treatment. For cell lines, isogenic ATRX wild-type (WT) and ATRX knockout (KO) paired isogenic cell lines treated with either 1.)interferon stimulatory DNA (ISD) and harvested 24 hours after treatment, 2)4 Gy ionizing radiation and harvested 36 hours after treatment, or 3) untreated control. These experiments help determine the differential impact of ATRX mutational status on cGAS-STING and type-I interferon signaling in soft tissue sarcoma.
