Project description:Drosophila melanogaster Schneider cells (S2) were transfected with a 2'-O-methyl inhibitor antisense to miR-277 or an unrelated control sequence. Three days after inhibition of the miRNA, the cellular RNA was pulse-labeled with 4-thio-Uridine for 1 hour, then tthe cells were lysed and RNA was extracted with Trizol. Following extraction, the RNA was further fractionated by in vitro biotinylation of incorporated 4-thio-uridine, yielding altogether three RNA fractions for each sample: total, newly transcribed (=labeled) and > 1h old (=unlabeled).

Project description:RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) offers a snapshot of cellular RNA populations, but not temporal information about the sequenced RNA. Here we report TimeLapse-seq, which uses oxidative-nucleophilic-aromatic substitution to convert 4-thiouridine into cytidine analogs, yielding apparent U-to-C mutations that mark new transcripts upon sequencing. TimeLapse-seq is a single-molecule approach that is adaptable to many applications and reveals RNA dynamics and induced differential expression concealed in traditional RNA-seq.

Project description:The genomic DNAs of strains 263 of L. infantum and five derived independent resistant mutants to 5-fluorouracil were used in comparative genomic hybridizations to reveal the deletion and/or amplification events occured by drug resistance mechanisms. The human protozoan parasites Leishmania are prototrophic for pyrimidines and de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis is necessary for their growth. Five independent L. infantum mutants were selected for resistance to the pyrimidine analogue 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in the hope to better understand the metabolism of pyrimidine in Leishmania. Analysis of the 5-FU mutants by comparative genomic hybridization and whole genome sequencing revealed amplification and deletion events as well as point mutations in metabolic genes involved in either the uridine salvage, folate or dTMP biosynthesis pathways. In particular, a dhfr-ts containing amplicon was observed in two mutants and a deletion of part of chromosome 10 was detected in one mutant. Point mutations in uridine phosphorybosyl transferase (UPRT), thymidine kinase (TK) and uridine phosphorylase (UP) were also discovered. Transfection experiments confirmed that these molecular alterations were responsible for the 5-FU resistance phenotype. Transport studies revealed that one resistant mutant was defective for uracil and 5-FU import although the identity of the transporter remains elusive. This study provided further insights in pyrimidine metabolism in Leishmania and confirmed that multiple mutations can co-exist in a cell to lead to resistance. Each independent resistant mutant to 5-fluorouracil was hybridizated with the wild-type L. infantum 263 to 10 microarrays, each with three biological replicates (independent cultures).

Project description:Conventional prokaryotic RNA labeling method usually requires large amounts of starting materials and tends to generate high background signals. Recently, two novel methods based on amplification systems were introduced. Here, we compared three alternative strategies: direct labeling method, ployadenylation-involved oligo-dT priming amplification method and random priming amplification method (hereafter referred to as DL, PAOD and RPA method in this article) for prokaryotic RNA labeling employing the expression profiling investigation in Escherichia coli (E. coli) heat shock model.

To identify an optimal RNA labeling method for prokaryotic microarray analysis, experiments were performed with starting RNA obtained from E.coli growing at control (37°C) or heat shock (43°C) condition. We employed 0.5 μg of total RNA for a single round of amplification using PAOD and RPA methods coupling to IVT to generate cDNA targets. In addition, an approach using DL method was also performed. Three types of cDNA mixtures containing Cy5-labeled (or Cy3-labeled) control DNA and Cy3-labeled (or Cy5-labeled) DNA targets were hybridized with E.coli microarrays in a dye-swap strategy. Replicate experiments were conducted from the same batch of total RNA to assess technique reproducibility of each approach.

Project description:Children with relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) have a poor prognosis with few therapeutic options. Multiple lines of evidence point towards the enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) as a metabolic vulnerability in dysregulated and malignant T‑cells. DHODH catalyzes the fourth step of de novo pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis (e.g., uridine, cytidine). Therefore, inhibiting DHODH via small molecule inhibitors (DHODHi) rapidly leads to the depletion of intracellular pyrimidine pools and forces cells to rely on extracellular salvage. In the absence of sufficient salvage, this intracellular nucleotide starvation results in the inhibition of DNA and RNA synthesis, cell cycle arrest, and ultimately death. T‑lymphoblasts appear to be specifically and exquisitely sensitive to nucleotide starvation following DHODHi. We have confirmed this sensitivity in vitro as well as in vivo in three murine models of T‑ALL. Additionally, we have identified that certain subsets of T-ALL seem to have an increased reliance on oxidative phosphorylation when treated with DHODHi. Through a series of metabolic assays, we show that leukemia cells, in the setting of nucleotide starvation, have changes in their mitochondrial membrane potential and may be more highly dependent on alternative fuel sources. We hope these changes point to a metabolic vulnerability that may distinguish them from normal T-cells and other normal hematopoietic cells and offer an exploitable therapeutic opportunity. The availability of clinical-grade DHODH inhibitors currently in human clinical trials speaks to the potential for rapidly advancing this work into the clinic.

Project description:AID (activation-induced cytidine deaminase) is expressed at low levels in many tissue types but is most highly expressed in germinal center B cells where it deaminates cytidine to uracil during somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination of the immunoglobulin genes. In addition to this critical role in immune diversification, aberrant targeting of AID contributes to oncogenic point mutations and chromosome translocations associated with B cell malignancies. Thus, to explore a role for AID in DNA demethylation in B cell lymphoma, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling in BL2 and AID-deficient (AID-/-) BL2 cell lines (Burkitt lymphoma that can be induced to express high levels of AID).
