Project description:In this study, we compared the proteomes of mouse CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) and CD4+Foxp3- conventional T cells (Tconv) in order to build a data set of proteins differentially regulated in these two cell populations. The data set contains mass spectrometry results from the analysis of 7 biological replicates of Treg/Tconv cell samples purified by flow cytometry, each experiment performed from a pool of 4-5 mice. Global proteomic analysis of each sample was performed by single-run nanoLC-MS/MS, using chromatographic separation of peptides on 50cm C18 reverse-phase columns, with either a 480min gradient on LTQ-Velos orbitrap mass spectrometer (replicates 1 and 2) or a 300min gradient on Q-Exactive orbitrap mass spectrometer (replicates 3-7). Several MS injection replicates were performed for some experiments, leading to 27 raw files composing the data set. The detailed description of each analysis (file name, sample type, biological replicate number, MS technical replicate number, MS instrument used, sample name in MaxQuant ouput) is given in the table “Files list.txt”.
Project description:Analysis of Histone H3 Lysine 4 mono-, di- and trimethyl and the boundary protein CTCF in CD4+CD25+CD45RA+ regulatory T-cells and conventional CD4+CD25- T-cells. To investigate regulatory functions or potential new transcription start sites in Treg and Tconv cells, we investigated the associated histone modifications. Mono- and dimethylation of histone 3 lysin 4 (H3K4) were previously shown to mark enhancer regions, whereas H3K4 trimethylation generally associates with transcription start sites. At imprinted loci, binding of the insulator protein CTCF, which restricts or directs enhancer-promoter interactions, is often regulated by DNA-methylation. Therefore we performed ChIP-on-chip experiments (chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by microarray hybridization; samples were amplified with ligation mediated PCR [see label protocol for the procedure] prior to labeling) for mono- di- and trimethylation of histone 3 lysin 4 and of CTCF in expanded Treg and Tconv cells. Keywords: ChIP-on-chip ChIP-on-chip experiments for H3K4 mono-, di- and trimethyl and CTCF in CD4+CD25+CD45RA+ regulatory T-cells and conventional CD4+CD25- T-cells were co-hybridizied with the input. Three biologiacal replicates (rep1-3) were performed for every histone mark, two CTCF (rep1 and rep2).
Project description:Transcriptome analysis of freshly sorted regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+) and conventional T cells (CD4+CD25-) and of expansion cultures of regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+CD45RA+) and conventional T cells (CD4+CD25-). Three biological replicates were performed of freshly sorted Treg and Tconv cells each. Four replicates of Treg expansion cultures sorted into CD45RA+/- subpopulations prior to RNA extraction were performed.
