Microarray analysis of TAP::ALG-1 associated RNAs isolated from synchronized 'wild-type' animals and 'mir-58' mutants

ABSTRACT: To discover new miRNA targets, we generated a C. elegans transgenic line expressing a functional N-terminally Tandem Affinity Purification (TAP) tagged ALG-1 protein (C. elegans strain WS4303). We crossed the TAP::ALG-1 transgene into the mir-58(n4640) mutant background to generate the strain WS5041. For simplicity, we will hereafter term the TAP::ALG-1 transgenic animals as wild typeand the transgenic WS5041 animals as mir-58. We compared the mRNA population that coimmunopurified with TAP::ALG-1 from synchronized L4 stage wild-type animals with that from synchronized L4 stage mir-58 mutant animals by one-color Affymetrix gene arrays. miR-58 target mRNAs should be specifically underrepresented in the latter samples.

Strains WS4303 (wt) and WS5041 (mir-58) were used for TAP::ALG-1 IPs. All experiments were conducted in three independent replicates. For each replicate, WS4303 and WS5041 were grown in parallel. 150 ng of TAP::ALG-1 associated RNA isolated from synchronized late L4 animals were sent to the GeneCore facilty in Heidelberg, Germany (http://www.genecore.embl.de/index.cfm), and the microarray data were generated according to their standard protocol (Weinmann et al. 2009).

Expression analysis of WS4303 (wild type) vs WS5041 (mir-58 mutants) total mRNA

Project description:To discover new miRNA targets, we generated a C. elegans transgenic line expressing a functional N-terminally Tandem Affinity Purification (TAP) tagged ALG-1 protein (C. elegans strain WS4303). We crossed the TAP::ALG-1 transgene into the mir-58(n4640) mutant background to generate the strain WS5041. For simplicity, we will hereafter term the TAP::ALG-1 transgenic animals as “wild type” and the transgenic WS5041 animals as “mir-58”. In addition to immunopurifying the TAP::ALG-1 and associated RNAs from these strains, we also compared total mRNA levels between these two strains. Total RNA was isolated from the same WS4303 and WS5041 total extracts that was further used for the TAP::ALG-1 RIP. Three independent biological replicates were analyzed. Long-oligo whole-genome C. elegans arrays, produced by the Genome Sequencing Center at Washington University in St. Louis (http://genome.wustl.edu/genome/celegans/microarray/ma_gen_info.cgi), were used for these experiments. A total of 10 µg of total RNA was used for cDNA synthesis.

Cooperative target mRNA destabilization and translation inhibition by miR-58 microRNA family in C. elegans [miRNA-Seq]

Project description:In animals, microRNAs frequently form families with related sequences. The functional relevance of miRNA families and the relative contribution of family members to target repression have remained, however, largely unexplored. Here, we used the C. elegans miR-58 miRNA family, comprised primarily of four highly abundant members: miR-58.1, miR-80, miR-81 and miR-82, as a model to investigate the redundancy of miRNA family members and their impact on target expression in an in vivo setting. RNA was extracted from different miR-58 family mutants (mir-58.1, mir-80; mir-58.1 and mir-80; mir-58.1; mir-81-82) and wild-type Bristol C. elegans strain at late L4 stage and submitted to small RNA profiling with Illumina HiSeq2000. The goal was to see whether miR-58 family members can compensate each other's expression.

Three independent biological replicates have been performed. Long-oligo whole-genome C. elegans arrays, produced by the Genome Sequencing Center at Washington University in St. Louis (http://genome.wustl.edu/genome/celegans/microarray/ma_gen_info.cgi), were used for analysis. Log2 ratios (immunopurified RNA over total RNA from extract) were calculated for each gene. Microarrays generated from WS4303 animals were compared to microarrays generated from N2 mock control animals by a Student’s two sample t test.
