Project description:In the article "Fra-1 regulates its target genes via binding to remote enhancers without exerting major control on chromatin architecture in triple negative breast cancers" by Bejjani et al., we mapped p300/CBP binding sites in MDA-MB-231 cells transfected with a control siRNA or a siRNA directed against Fra-1(FOSL1) to study whether Fra-1 can modulate p300/CBP recruitment on MDA-MB-231 genome
Project description:In the article "Fra-1 regulates its target genes via binding to remote enhancers without exerting major control on chromatin architecture in triple negative breast cancers" by Bejjani et al., we used NG Capture-C approach to identify regulatory elements interacting with the promoters of 35 Fra-1 regulated genes in the triple negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231
Project description:In the paper "Fra-1 regulates its target genes via binding to remote enhancers without exerting major control on chromatin architecture in triple negative breast cancers" by Bejjani et al., we identified Fra-1 and/or Fra-2 target genes in MDA-MB-231 cells. si RNA against Fra-1 and against Fra-2 were transfected in MDA-MB-231 cells either independenlty or simultaneously to identify genes regulated specifically by Fra-1 or Fra-2 and genes regulated redundantly or complementarily by Fra-1 and Fra-2 total RNA were purified and biotinylated sense-strand cDNA were produced. cDNA targets were used to probe Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 2.0 ST arrays
Project description:Dicer, RNase III endonuclease, is an essential enzyme in miRNA biogenesis that regulates target gene expression, and it has been reported that aberrant expressions of Dicer associate with the clinical outcomes of patients in various cancers. To explore the miRNA differencial expression regulated by Dicer in MDA-MB-231/E1A cells, the microarray profiling analysis was employed to conduct differentially expressed miRNAs in stable MDA-MB-231/vector, MDA-MB-231/E1A, and MDA-MB-231/E1A/shDicer cells.
Project description:In the article "Fra-1 regulates its target genes via binding to remote enhancers without exerting major control on chromatin architecture in triple negative breast cancers" by Bejjani et al., we mapped epigenetic marks (H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac), p300/CBP, PolII and CTCF to characterize the binding sites of Fra-1 and Fra-2 on MDA-MB-231 genome. Data for Fra-1 and Fra-2 ChIP-seq are available on GEO database, accession number GSE132098 (Tolza et al., 2019, MCR 17, 1999-2014)
Project description:Identification of genes that are involved in self-seeding by comparing gene expression profiles between parental MDA-MB-231 cells and seeder cells (MDA-231-S1a and S1b) 2 replicates from each sample (parental MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-231 S1a and MDA-MB-231 S1b) were analyzed
Project description:Dicer, RNase III endonuclease, is an essential enzyme in miRNA biogenesis that regulates target gene expression, and it has been reported that aberrant expressions of Dicer associate with the clinical outcomes of patients in various cancers. To explore the miRNA differencial expression regulated by Dicer in MDA-MB-231/E1A cells, the microarray profiling analysis was employed to conduct differentially expressed miRNAs in stable MDA-MB-231/vector, MDA-MB-231/E1A, and MDA-MB-231/E1A/shDicer cells. The four groups including vector control, E1A-expressing and Dicer knockdown in E1A-expressing MDA-MB-231 cells were harvested and RNA were isolated. Two independent experiments were performed for each group.
Project description:ChIP-Seq was carried out to map the genome-wide chromatin occupancy of ZNF148 in a basal subtype triple negative breast cancer cell-line, MDA-MB-231.
