Project description:The two paralogous zinc finger factors CTCF and CTCFL differ in expression such that CTCF is ubiquitously expressed, whereas CTCFL is found during spermatogenesis and in some cancer types. Both factors share the highly conserved DNA binding domain and are bound to DNA sequences with an identical consensus. Here we analyzed the differential gene expression effect mediated by expression of Ctcfl in undifferentiated and differentiated p19 cell.
Project description:To investigate whether Rbfox3 could alter the expression level of miRNAs during neuronal differentiation of P19 cells, we performed miRNA microarray analysis using the RNAs extracted from untreated (undifferentiated) P19-GFP, RA-treated (neuronally differentiated) P19-GFP, or RA-treated P19-T2 cells.

Total 9 samples were analyzed. We compared expression levels of P19-GFP (-) vs P19-GFP (+) vs P19-T2 (+) to identify miRNAs which had changes in expression levels with p < 0.01. From this miRNA list, we compared among P19-GFP (-) vs P19-GFP (+) vs P19-T2 (+) to identify the miRNAs which appeared to correlate with Rbfox3 expression.

Project description:Translation is tightly regulated during differentiation. To gain insights into the mechanism regulating translational activity at the transcript level, we performed Ribosome Profiling of undifferentiated and neuron-differentiated P19 cells. Relative changes in translational activity between the undifferentiated and differentiated cells show an increase in the translational activity of the transcripts encoding for ribosomal proteins compared to the rest of the transcriptome. Thus, in this differentiation system, the biogenesis of the translational machinery is tightly controlled at the translational level.
