Evidence of off-target effects associated with long dsRNAs in Drosophila cell-based assays

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the specificity of long dsRNAs used in high-throughput RNAi screens performed at the Drosophila RNAi Screening Center (DRSC), we performed a global analysis of their activity in 30 genome-wide screens completed at our facility. Surprisingly, our analysis predicts that dsRNAs containing ≥19 nucleotide perfect matches identified in silico to unintended targets may contribute to a significant false positive error rate arising from off-target effects. We confirmed experimentally that such sequences in dsRNAs lead to false positives and to the efficient knockdown of a cross-hybridizing transcript, raising a cautionary note when interpreting results based on the use of a single dsRNA per gene. Although a full appreciation of all causes of false positive errors remains to be determined, we suggest simple guidelines to help ensure high quality information from RNAi high-throughput screens Keywords: Specificity of long dsRNAs, Drosophila melanogaster, SL2 cell line, custom cDNA arrays, off-target effects, Drosophila RNAi Screening Center (DRSC)

Drosophila S2R+ / TSC1 / TSC2 mutant phosphoproteomics

Project description:The tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) family of tumor suppressors, TSC1 and TSC2, function together in an evolutionarily conserved protein complex that is a point of convergence for major cell signaling pathways that regulate mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1). Mutation or aberrant inhibition of the TSC complex is common in various human tumor syndromes and cancers. The discovery of novel therapeutic strategies to selectively target cells with functional loss of this complex is therefore of substantial clinical relevance to TSC and sporadic cancers. We developed a CRISPR-based method to generate homogenous mutant Drosophila cell lines. By combining TSC1 and TSC2 mutant cell lines with RNAi screens against all kinases and phosphatases, we identified synthetic interactions with TSC1 and TSC2. Knockdown of three candidate genes (mRNA-cap, Pitslre and CycT; orthologs of RNGTT, CDK11 and CCNT1 in humans) reduced the population growth rate of both Drosophila TSC1 and TSC2 mutant cells but not that of wild-type cells. Moreover, knockdown of all three genes displayed similar selective effects in mammalian TSC2-deficient cell lines, including human tumor-derived cells, illustrating the power of this cross species screening strategy to identify potential drug targets.

Gene expression profiling of S2 cells and S2 cells expressing AbdA

Project description:We sought to determine the genes regulated by the Drosophila Hox protein AbdA in a homogenous cell system. S2-DRSC cells that have no Hox expression were stably transfected with HA-tagged AbdA under the control of a metallothionein promoter.

Identifying the targets of the pair-rule transcription factors Even-skipped and Runt in the late Drosophila blastoderm

Project description:It has long been appreciated that striped pair-rule transcription factor expression is necessary for convergent extension in the early Drosophila embryo, although the mechanisms that link these transcriptional regulators to planar polarity in this tissue have long been elusive. The goal of this study was to determine the transcriptional tragets of the pair-rule transcription factors Eve and Runt in Drosophila blastoderm embryos. We compared the transcriptional profiles of late blastoderm embryos injected with either water or dsRNAs against both eve and runt to identify differentially expressed genes that may directly contribute to the establishment of planar polarity during Drosophila convergent extension. Comparing the mRNA profiles from late blastoderm Drosophila embryos injected with either water (Water) or eve+runt dsRNAs (Eve), in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq.

Production of functional small interfering RNAs by human Dicer

Project description:While RNA interference (RNAi) functions as a potent antiviral innate immune response in plants and invertebrates, mammalian somatic cells appear incapable of mounting an RNAi response and few small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) can be detected. To examine why siRNA production is inefficient, we have generated double knockout human cells lacking both Dicer and PKR. Using these cells, which tolerate dsRNA expression, we show that mutant forms of human Dicer lacking the amino-terminal helicase domain can process dsRNAs to produce high levels of siRNAs that are readily detectable by Northern blot and that can effectively and specifically inhibit the expression of cognate mRNAs. However, even these more active Dicer mutants produce only modest levels of viral siRNAs in infected cells that are insufficient to inhibit viral replication. We conclude that the production of siRNAs from viral dsRNAs is likely inefficient due to the poor accessibility of viral dsRNAs to Dicer.

For full list of modENCODE projects, see http://www.genome.gov/26524648 Project Goal: The goal of these experiments are to validate and confirm the locations of 125 chromosomal proteins across the Drosophila melanogaster genome. To do this, we are using RNAi to deplete individual non-histone chromosomal proteins in Drosophila BG3 and S2 tissue culture cells, and then using antibodies to perform Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation (ChIP) using genomic tiling arrays. Comparison of a protein factor's binding profiles before and after depletion will increase the confidence of our predictions.
