Next generation sequencing facilitates quantitative analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans N2 wild type, emr-1(gk119), lem-2(tm1582) and emr-1(RNAi) lem-2(tm1582) transcriptomes.

ABSTRACT: Laminopathies are caused by mutations in components of the nuclear envelope (NE). While most NE components are widely expressed, laminopathies affect only a subset of tissues. However, the understanding of the molecular mechanisms that explain this phenomenon is still elusive. Here we have performed RNA-Seq analysis in adult C. elegans nematodes comparing gene expression in wild type and single and double mutants of two components of the NE, EMR-1 and LEM-2. Our data confirm that EMR-1 and LEM-2 facilitate gene repression and that both proteins control the expression of mainly muscle and neuronal genes.

DamID of Dam::LMN-1 and Dam::EMR-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans adult worms

Project description:Laminopathies are caused by mutations in components of the nuclear envelope (NE). While most NE components are widely expressed, laminopathies affect only a subset of tissues. However, the understanding of the molecular mechanisms that explain this phenomenon is still elusive. Here we have performed a genome wide DamID analysis in adult C. elegans nematodes comparing the DNA association profile of two components of the NE, Lamin/LMN-1 and Emerin/EMR-1. Although both proteins were associated to silent DNA, EMR-1 showed a predominant role in the anchoring of muscle and neuronal promoters to the nuclear periphery. Deletion of either EMR-1 or LEM-2, another integral NE protein, caused local changes in nuclear architecture with both increased and decreased LMN-1 association. Comparison of Dam::LMN-1 and Dam::EMR-1 DNA assotiation in wild type strains and Dam::LMN-1 DNA association in wild type, lem-2(tm1582) and emr-1(gk119) mutant backgrounds.

LEM-2 ChIP-seq to study chromatin anchoring

Project description:Chromatin Immunoprecipitation against the nuclear envelope protein LEM-2 to detect association to the nuclear periphery. LEM-2 ChIP was performed on early embryo fixed extracts for wild-type and two mutants that have altered position of a perinuclear chromatin reporter. LEM-2 ChIP on early embryo chromatin extracts of three different genotypes: wild-type, met-2 set-25_delta_delta and cec-4_delta, in two independent biological replicas

Dynamic gene expression of two Caenorhabditis elegans wild type strains (N2 and CB4856)

Project description:We analyzed the consequences of recombination in gene expression. For this, we measured expression patterns in two C. elegans wild types, N2 and CB4856 (CB). We compare these profiles with gene expression values from a Recombinant Inbred Population (RIL) derived from the same wild types. Expression values of the RILs (GSE17071) were obtained from Viñuela et al. (Genome Research, 2010). N2 and CB strain nematodes were cultured in identical conditions. Likewise, mRNA was extracted at three different ages (juveniles, reproductive and old worms) to investigate the transcriptional consequences of recombination in aging worms. Then, we explored gene expression heritability and transgression as genetic parameters for the analysis of gene expression divergence in natural isolates. Moreover, we investigated the progression of those parameters with age.
