Project description:The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) body is a phase-separated nuclear structure composed of various proteins including several chromatin regulators, and physically associates with chromatin. To address functional roles of the PML-chromatin association, we conducted genome-wide profiling of PML body-associated regions.
Project description:To monitor changes in PML body compinents during exposure to 1uM arsenic for 2h in U2OS cells lacking endogenous PML but expressing YFP-PML (V).
Project description:The Pml gene is essential to the formation of PML nuclear bodies, domains which have been associated with various functions such as apoptosis/senescence, DNA repair and cell proliferation( Lallemand-Breitenbach 2010). PML-NBs formation is regulated by cellular stress including oxidative stress(Jeanne 2010, de The 2012). To investigate the role of PML in ROS response in vivo, we analyse the expression difference betweem Pml wt and Pml KO under fasted condition, which easily up-regulate ROS in BALB/cByJ background
Project description:The Pml gene is essential to the formation of PML nuclear bodies, domains which have been associated with various functions such as apoptosis/senescence, DNA repair and cell proliferation( Lallemand-Breitenbach 2010). PML-NBs formation is regulated by cellular stress including oxidative stress(Jeanne 2010, de The 2012). To investigate the role of PML in ROS response in vivo, we analyse the expression difference to the acetaminophen toxicity, which is initiated by ROS, in Pml wt and Pml KO mice.
Project description:Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) body is a phase-separated nuclear structure composed of various proteins including several chromatin regulators, and physically associates with chromatin, implying its crucial roles for particular genome functions. To investigate functional roles of PML bodies in chromatin organization, we conducted ATAC-seq with wild-type and PML KO mESCs.
Project description:The transcription factor NF-κB is the master regulator of the immune response but also regulates gene expression to influences cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. Inducible site-specific phosphorylation of NF-κB is critical for its activity and appears to be important in gene specific transcriptional control. Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) is a nuclear protein that forms sub-nuclear structures termed nuclear bodies associated with transcriptionally active genomic regions. We demonstrate that PML promotes NF-κB- induced transcriptional responses by promoting the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 at key regulatory sites. Our findings demonstrate a critical role for PML in promoting NF-κB transcriptional activity through signal induced post-translational modifications.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of murine cells expressing PML/RARA at the early promyelocyte stage (4 weeks old, preleukemic) and in full blown PML/RARA leukemia generated by transducing PML/RARA bone marrow with a Flt3-ITD retroviral vector
