Project description:We performed m6A sequencing to compare N6 transcriptome methylation profiles of the longissimus dorsi muscles (LDMs) between Landrace pigs (a Danish pig breed) and Jinhua (a Chinese pig breed with higher levels of intramuscular fat). The results show m6A is widely spread and highly conserved in pig mRNA. m6A occurs in the conserved sequence motif of GGACU and exhibits a unique topology in pig.Transcriptome-wide m6A profiling revealed that about 20% of transcribed genes were modified by m6A, with the consensus sequence GGACU appearing highly in m6A-modified genes. Functional enrichment analysis showed that genes differentially methylated in LDMs of the two porcine breeds were related to gene regulation and muscle development and differentiation,suggesting that the m6A modification is tissue-specific and influences mRNA stability or translation.

Project description:Backfat thickness is one of the most important traits of commercially raised pigs. Meishan pigs are renowned for having thicker backfat than Landrace pigs. To examine the genetic factors responsible for the differences, we first produced female crossbred pig lines by mating Landrace (L) × Large White (W) × Duroc (D) females (LWD) with Landrace (L) or Meishan (M) boars (i.e., LWD × L = LWDL for Landrace offspring and LWD × M = LWDM of the Meishan offspring). We confirmed that LWDM pigs indeed had a thicker backfat than LWDL pigs. Next, we performed gene expression microarray analysis (in both genetic lines) to examine differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in energy metabolism-related tissues, subcutaneous adipose (fat), liver, and longissimus dorsi muscle tissues. We analyzed the annotation of DEGs (2-fold cutoff) to functionally categorize them by Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways. The number of DEGs in muscle tissues of both lines was much less than that in fat and liver tissues, indicating that DEGs was much lesser in muscle tissues (in both genetic lines) than in fat and liver tissues, thus indicating that DEGs in muscle tissues may not contribute much to differences in backfat thickness. In contrast, several genes related to muscle (in fat tissue) and fatty acid and glucose metabolism (in the liver) were more upregulated in LWDM pigs than LWDL pigs, indicating that those DEGs might be responsible for differences in backfat thickness. The different genome-wide, gene expression profiles in the fat, liver, and muscle tissues between breeds can provide useful information for pig breeders.

Project description:A CNV map in pigs could facilitate the identification of chromosomal regions that segregate for important economic and disease phenotypes. The goal of this study was to identify CNV regions (CNVRs) in pigs based on a custom array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH). We carried out a custom-made array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH) experiment in order to identify copy number variations (CNVs) in the pig genome analysing animals of diverse pig breeds (White Duroc, Yangxin, Erhualian, Tongcheng, Large White, Pietrain, Landrace and Chinese new pig line DIV ) using a tiling oligonucleotide array with ~720,000 probes designed on the pig genome (Sus scrofa genome version 9.0). In this study, a custom-made tiling oligo-nucleotide 720k array was used with a median probe spacing of 2506 bp for screening 12 pigs with a female Duroc as the reference.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread internal RNA modification whose function is poorly understood. Here we report that m6A residues within the 5'UTR promote a novel form of cap-independent translation which is mediated through an interaction between m6A residues and the translation initiation factor, eIF3. We present eIF3a PAR-iCLIP data which demonstrate that eIF3 predominantly binds mRNAs within the 5'UTR. eIF3 binding sites are also in proximity to m6A residues within the 5'UTR of cellular mRNAs. Two replicates of eIF3a PAR-iCLIP in HEK293T cells.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most abundant modifications in eukaryotic RNA. Recent mapping of m6A methylomes in mammals, yeast, and plants as well as characterization of m6A methyltransferases, demethylases, and binding proteins have revealed regulatory functions of this dynamic RNA modification. In bacteria, although m6A is present in ribosomal RNA (rRNA), its occurrence in messenger RNA (mRNA) still remains elusive. Here, we used liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to calculate the m6A/A ratio in mRNA from a wide range of bacterial species, which demonstrates that m6A is an abundant mRNA modification in tested bacteria. Subsequent transcriptome-wide m6A profiling in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa revealed a conserved distinct m6A pattern that is significantly different from that in eukaryotes. Most m6A peaks are located inside open reading frames (ORF), and carry a unique consensus motif (GCCAU). Functional enrichment analysis of bacterial m6A peaks indicates that the majority of m6A-modified transcripts are associated with respiration, amino acids metabolism, stress response, and small RNAs genes, suggesting potential regulatory roles of m6A in these pathways. m6A profiling in E.coli and P.aeruginosa mRNA

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most prevalent internal messenger RNA modification, plays critical roles in diverse biological processes. To characterize the potential involvement of METTL3 in macrophage function, we mapped m6A methylomes of METTL3-deficent and WT macrophages by m6A sequencing (m6A-seq) and RNA-seq, with independent biological replicates. Notably, among the m6A peaks with remarkable changes upon METTL3-depletion, the vast majority exhibited a significant (p < 0.05) decrease in m6A abundance.The most common m6A motif GGAC is significantly enriched in the m6A peaks in both WT and METTL3-deficent cells. A similar pattern of total and common m6A distribution in control and METTL3-deficient cells was observed, when the m6A peaks were especially abundant in the vicinity of CDS and 3’UTR regions.

Project description:We performed m6A-RIPs in Ascl1-induced neurons (iNeurons) to investigate the neuronal m6A epitranscriptome. Immunoprecipitation was done twice using two different antibodies, acquired from Abcam and Synaptic Systems (SySy), allowing for a more robust detection of m6A modification marks. Additionally, RIP-seq was performed separately with intact and fragmented RNA. The former approach allowed to identify proportions of m6A-modified transcripts among the total number, while the latter approach provided the information to identify genomic coordinates of m6A peaks.

Project description:Obese and lean pig breeds showed obvious phenotypic variations and physiological differences in skeletal muscle growth. Prenatal muscle development programs postnatal performance. In this study we initially conducted full transcriptional profiling of prenatal skeletal muscle from Tongcheng pigs (obese) and Landrace pigs (lean) at 33, 65 and 90 days post coitus (dpc), using long serial analysis of gene expression (LongSAGE). We subsequently sequenced 317,115 LongSAGE tags and identified 1400 and 1201 differentially expressed transcripts that showed eight expression patterns for Tongcheng and Landrace, respectively. These two breeds had more significant differences in their gene expression profiles at 65 than that at 33 and 90 dpc. We also identified 532, 653 and 459 transcripts that were differentially expressed at 33, 65 and 90 dpc between the two breeds, respectively. The cellular function of the differentially expressed transcripts that matched annotated genes revealed that each stage had a uniquely altered profile between the two breeds in various functional categories including muscle fiber constitute and contraction, apoptosis, protein synthesis, and signalling transduction. Our results suggest that skeletal muscle development potentially has a greater lag in its growth rate at 33-65 dpc in Tongcheng pigs when compared with their Landrace counterparts. Our analyses therefore not only will provide valuable resources in the further identification of candidate genes for meat production traits, but also assist in the elucidation of the development of prenatal skeletal muscle in pigs and other vertebrates. Keywords: comparative transcriptome analysis Three Tongcheng and Landrace sows were mated with the same boar of each corresponding breed, respectively. The sows were then sacrificed at a commercial slaughterhouse and the uteri containing the embryos were collected immediately. The longissimus muscle tissues were then rapidly dissected from each of the embryos at 33, 65 and 90 dpc for both the Tongcheng and Landrace pigs. These samples were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C until further use in the LongSAGE experiments. For the skeletal muscles from the six different samples, that is, Tongcheng (T33, T65 and T90, respectively) and Landrace (L33, L65 and L90, respectively), equal quantities of total RNA from each individual (n=4) were pooled. Six LongSAGE libraries were subsequently generated using I-SAGETM Long kits (Invitrogen, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Transforming clones were sequenced with the help of an ABI PRIZM 3730 DNA sequencer.
