Project description:To knock down SLC3A2, MCF10A cells were either transfected with control siRNAs, or siRNAs specifically targetting SLC3A2. Samples were either untreated or treated with TGFb. Ribosome profiling and RNA sequencing was performed on these samples. MCF10A cells with and without SLC3A2 overexpression construct were either untreated or treated with TGFb. Ribosome profiling was performed on these samples.
Project description:To identify potential novel regulators of G1/S transition and S-phase progression, we performed an RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) time-course analysis of non-transformed human breast epithelial cells (MCF10A) released into the cell cycle from serum starvation, in the presence of DMSO or a specific CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib.
Project description:To investigate ribosome localization and gene expression dynamics during starvation in cancer cells, we performed RNA sequencing and ribosome profiling in RKO cells under fed and starved (12.5 uM arginine) conditions.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to examine gene expression regulation at the transcriptional and translational levels in response to various forms of nutrient deprivation, and whether there are differences between isogenic transformed and non-transformed cells. Mehods: We apply high-throughput sequencing of ribosome footprints (ribosome profiling) and poly(A) RNA (RNA sequencing) in an isogenic pair of transformed (tamoxifen-treated) and non-transformed (ethanol control) MCF10A-ER-Src cells subjected to the metabolic stresses that differentially affect global protein synthesis (Figure 1): deprivation of glutamine (for 30min and 4 hours), glucose (4hours), cysteine/cystine (4hours) or leucine/isoleucine/valine (brach-chain aminoacids - BCAA) (4hours). The same experiments were also performed in transformed ER-Src MCF10A treated with torin1 (500nM) for 4 hours. Results: Genome-wide translational profiling of glutamine deprived ER-Src MCF10A cells (for 30 minutes) shows increased translation of uORFs-containing mRNAs and down-regulation of ribosomal protein mRNAs, which is followed by increased translation and transcription of cytokine and inflammatory mRNAs (after 4 hours of glutamine deprivation). The transcription and translation of inflammatory and cytokine mRNAs is also stimulated in response to 4 hours deprivation of glucose, cysteine/cystine and BCAA, with the extent of stimulation correlating with the i) decrease in global protein synthesis and ii) down-regulation of all translationally-repressed mRNAs or ribosomal protein mRNAs. Conclusions: Pro-inflammatory gene expression is associated with translational repression in response to short-term nutrient deprivation.
