Project description:Transcriptional plasticity is a major driver of phenotypic differences between species. The lower temperature limit (LTL), namely the lower end of survival temperature, is an important trait delimiting the geographical distribution of a species, however, the genetic mechanisms are poorly understood. We investigated the inter-species transcriptional diversification in cold responses between zebrafish Danio rerio and tilapia Oreochromis niloticus, which were reared at a common temperature (28°C) but have distinct LTLs. We identified significant expressional divergence between the two species in the orthologous genes from gills when the temperature cooled to the LTL of tilapia (8°C). Five KEGG pathways were found sequentially over-represented in the zebrafish/tilapia divergently expressed genes in the duration (12 hour) of 8°C exposure, forming a signaling cascade from metabolic regulation to apoptosis via FoxO signaling. Consistently, we found differential progression of apoptosis in the gills of the two species in which zebrafish manifested a delayed and milder apoptotic phenotype than tilapia, corresponding with a lower LTL of zebrafish. We identified diverged expression in 25 apoptosis-related transcription factors between the two species which forms an interacting network with diverged factors involving the FoxO signaling and metabolic regulation. We propose a genetic network which regulates LTL in fishes. Examination of gene expressional divergence in gill between zebrafish and tilapia

Project description:Most loci contributing to breast cancer susceptibility identified by the recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are predicted to have a regulatory function. Additionally, the early phases of the GWAS studies have generated long lists of possible candidates that need to be prioritised for follow-up studies. Integration of allelic expression mapping and disease association data should enable the identification of those GWAS hits with higher cis-regulatory potential. Our aims are (1) to assess how well functional data and disease risk are correlated and (2) to help prioritise and select the strongest candidates from the GWAS scan for further follow-up and functional analysis. We are performing genome-wide differential allelic expression (DAE) analysis to identify loci with cis-regulatory potential in sixty-four normal breast tissue samples. Using the Illumina Exon510S-Duo BeadChips, we have identified 34K informative SNPs of which approximately 8K (23.5%) displayed DAE. Two SNPs showed monoallelic expression suggesting possible new imprinted loci. We are mapping the cis-regulatory loci by fitting a linear regression model with permutations to DAE ratios vs genotype at SNPs within ±250kb of the RefSeq gene corresponding to the DAE SNP. We will combine our data with the UK GWAS1 and GWAS2 studies for breast cancer susceptibility, to generate a list of genes that show regulatory variation for further evaluation as candidates. This is the first genome-wide differential allelic expression study in normal breast tissue, and one of the first in a primary tissue. We predict that this will be a powerful approach to validate/identify susceptibility loci and to unravel some of the biology underlying breast cancer susceptibility.

Project description:Cichlids fishes exhibit extensive phenotypic diversification and speciation. In this study we integrate transcriptomic and proteomic signatures from two cichlids species, identify novel open reading frames (nORFs) and perform evolutionary analysis on these nORF regions. We embark comparative transrcriptomics and proteogenomic analysis of two metabolically active tissues, the testes and liver, of two cichlid species Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia, ON) and Pundamilia nyererei (Makobe Island, PN). Our results suggest that the time scale of speciation of the two species can be better explained by the evolutionary divergence of these nORF genomic regions.

Project description:The identification of multiple signals at individual loci could explain additional phenotypic variance ('missing heritability') of common traits, and help identify causal genes. We examined gene expression levels as a model trait because of the large number of strong genetic effects acting in cis. Using expression profiles from 613 individuals, we performed genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analyses to identify cis-expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), and conditional analysis to identify second signals. We examined patterns of association when accounting for multiple SNPs at a locus and when including additional SNPs from the 1000 Genomes Project. We identified 1298 cis-eQTLs at an approximate false discovery rate 0.01, of which 118 (9%) showed evidence of a second independent signal. For this subset of 118 traits, accounting for two signals resulted in an average 31% increase in phenotypic variance explained (Wilcoxon P< 0.0001). The association of SNPs with cis gene expression could increase, stay similar or decrease in significance when accounting for linkage disequilibrium with second signals at the same locus. Pairs of SNPs increasing in significance tended to have gene expression increasing alleles on opposite haplotypes, whereas pairs of SNPs decreasing in significance tended to have gene expression increasing alleles on the same haplotypes. Adding data from the 1000 Genomes Project showed that apparently independent signals could be potentially explained by a single association signal. Our results show that accounting for multiple variants at a locus will increase the variance explained in a substantial fraction of loci, but that allelic heterogeneity will be difficult to define without resequencing loci and functional work.

Project description:In fish, the sex determining mechanisms can broadly be classified as genotypic (GSD), temperature-dependent (TSD), or genotypic plus temperature effects (GSD+TE). For the fish species with TSD or GSD+TE, extremely high or low temperature can affect its sex determination and differentiation. For long time, the underlying changes in DNA methylation that occur during high or low temperature induced sex reversal have not been fully clarified. In this study, we used Nile tilapia as a model to perform a genome-wide survey of differences in DNA methylation in female and male gonads between control and high temperature induced groups using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP). We identified the high temperature induction-related differentially methylated regions (DMRs), and performed functional enrichment analysis for genes exhibiting DMR. These identified differentially methylated genes were potentially involved in the connection between environmental temperature and sex reversal in Nile tilapia. In this study, four samples (control females, CF; control males, CM; induced females, IF; induced males, IM) were analyzed.

Project description:Little is known about the global gene expression profile of macrophages in response to changes in size and porosity of silica nanoparticles (SNPs). Spherical nonporous SNPs of two different diameters, and mesoporous spherical SNPs with comparable size were characterized. Reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial membrane potential, lysosome degradation capacity, and lysosome pH were measured to evaluate the influence of nonporous and mesoporous SNPs on mitochondrial and lysosomal function. RNA-sequencing was utilized to generate transcriptional profiles of RAW264.7 macrophages exposed to non-toxic SNP doses. DESeq2, limma, and BinReg2 software were used to analyze the data based on both unsupervised and supervised strategies to identify genes with greatest differences among NP treatments. Utilizing GATHER and DAVID software, possible induced pathways were studied. We found that mesoporous silica nanoparticles are capable of altering gene expression in macrophages at doses that do not elicit acute cytotoxicity, while gene transcription was minimally affected by nonporous SNPs.
