Project description:To promote the development and understanding of the in vitro erythroleukemia model, we analyzed the transcriptomes of mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells prior to and after erythroid-like differentiation induced by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). A total of 348 protein-coding genes, including many known erythroid-enriched genes such as hemoglobin and heme synthesis genes, were upregulated upon erythroid-like induction in MEL cells
Project description:We compared the transcriptomes of ES cell derived erythroid progentor cells (ES-EP) and murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells stably transfected with Gata-1 fused to ER. RNA was isolated from duplicate proliferating cultures of MEL and ES-EP using Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST.

Project description:MEL clone 745 cells that are blocked at the pro-erythroblast stage serve as a model for terminal erythroid differentiation when treated with DMSO. A stable MEL cell line expressing (Dox)-dependent shRNA sequence targeting different regions of G9a mRNA was established and screened as previously described in (Demers, 2007 PMID17707229). Knock down was induced by adding 5 micrograms/ml final of Dox in the culture medium. For a total of six samples, 10 micro grams of RNA was extracted from each three biological replicates of mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells and their corresponding G9a knock downs. The RNA was extracted and purified using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) including the on-column DNAse I digestion step. Experiment Overall Design: Mouse erythroleukemia cells: wild type vs G9 knock down. For each microarray hybridization, data analysis was performed using MAS and GCRMA.
Project description:Murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells are differentiated by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO）, hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA） or trichostatin A (TSA） treatment. We selsected high differentiation-inducible (HD) and low differentiation-inducible (LD)-MEL cells by recloning of original MEL cells. We screened erythroid differentiation related-genes to compare transcriptome of HD and LD-MEL cells.

Project description:We used ChIP-Seq to map Ldb1, Scl and Gata1 binding sites in mouse total bone marrow cells. Together with functional studies comparing gene expression in Murine Erythroleukemia (MEL) cells expressing Ldb1 shRNA or control shRNA and bioinformatics analysis, we systematically determined the transcriptional program controlled by Ldb1 complexes in erythropoiesis. This represents the ChIP-Seq component of the study only
