Project description:Microarray analyses with cells/tissues overexpressing YAP have revealed many transcription targets of YAP (Dong et al, 2007; Zhao et al, 2008). However, as YAP induces transformation of non-cancerous cells, we thought many of known targets of YAP may be indirect consequence of transforming property of YAP. To identify the immediate transcription targets for YAP, we utilized immortalized mammary epithelial MCF-10A cells expressing a tamoxifen inducible, hyperactive (S127/381A) YAP mutant (MCF-10A ERT2-YAP 2SA). MCF-10A ERT2 and MCF-10A ERT2-YAP 2SA are generated. Each cell line was treated with 0.1% of ethanol (solvent) or 1uM of 4-hydroxytamoxifen for 2 or 6 hours. This makes 6 samples per set. The experiments were done in duplicate. The expression data from MCF-10A ERT2 and MCF-10A ERT2-YAP 2SA before tamoxifen treatment can serve as control.

Project description:We profiled gene expression and splicing changes in MCF-10A human mammary epithelial cells expressing MYC fused to a portion of estrogen receptor (MYC-ER) (Eilers et al., 1989; Littlewood et al., 1995). We performed RNA-seq, in triplicate, on 3D-grown MCF-10A MYC-ER cells at 0, 8, and 24 hours (h) after 4-OHT-induced MYC activation. As a control for 4-OHT-induced effects, 3D-grown parental MCF-10A cells lacking the MYC-ER fusion protein were treated with 4-OHT at the same timepoints.

Project description:The obligate intracellular pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis is the causative agent of the most common bacterial sexually transmitted disease worldwide. While the host response to infection by this pathogen has been well characterized, it remains unclear to what extent host gene expression during infection is the product of Chlamydia-directed modulation of host transcription factors. In this report, we show the transcriptome of Chlamydia-infected epithelial cells exhibits gene expression consistent with activity of YAP, a transcriptional coactivator implicated in cell proliferation, wound healing, and fibrosis. After confirming induction of YAP target genes during infection, we observed increased YAP nuclear translocation in Chlamydia-infected epithelial cells. We further show that increased YAP activation is a Chlamydia-directed process, requiring de novo protein synthesis during midcycle infection. Surprisingly, infection-mediated YAP activation bypasses YAP inhibition by the Hippo kinase cascade, with phosphorylation at S127 remaining unchanged. Instead, phosphorylation at Y357 was increased along with nuclear translocation, indicating that infection overrides phospho-inhibition at S127. Nuclear translocation of Y357F mutant YAP was not increased by infection, demonstrating that chlamydial YAP activation requires phosphorylation at this residue. Taken together, our results define a transcriptome-altering mechanism potentially linked to chlamydial fibrosis and other advanced disease sequelae.

Project description:Expression profiling of Naïve and Primed hESCs using Illumina HT-12 v.4 expression BeadChip We report that over-expression of the transcription factor YAP in male and female human ESCs and iPSCs promotes the generation of naïve PSCs. YAP-induced naïve PSCs have a naïve-specific dome-like colony morphology, rapid clonal growth rate for more than 70 passages, normal karyotype, expression of pluripotency markers and ability to form teratomas. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) can substitute for YAP to generated transgene-free human naïve PSCs. We performed microarray analyses on hESCs and hIPSCs in primed and naïve ESC media and show that YAP overexpressing cells in naïve media (Ying et al 2008, Ludwig et al 2006, Theunnissen 2014) display a distinct naïve-like transcriptional profile and other hallmarks of the naïve state. These results uncover an unexpected role for YAP in the transition to the human naïve state, and provide a platform in which to further dissect this transition and probe early human embryology.

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify YAP/TAZ direct transcriptional targets and transcriptional partners, through ChIP-sequencing and gene expression profiling. Keywords: Expression profiling by array MDA-MB-231 cells growing at low confluence in standard growth conditions were transfected with the indicated siRNAs (Dupont et al., Nature 2011). The following day, growth medium was renewed and cells were incubated for 24 more hours, and then harvested for total RNA extraction. 4 independent biological replicates were plated, transfected and harvested in parallel for each siRNA. Raw .CEL files are the same as in GSE59230 (Enzo et al., EMBO J 2015), but gene expression levels have been quantified using Brainarray HGU133Plus2_Hs_ENTREZG_v17 custom chip definition files.
