Project description:To determine the effects of depleting TIP60, CDK8, or HIF1A on the transcriptional response to hypoxia, we performed RNAseq analysis of four HCT116 colorectal carcinoma cell lines (shNT, HIF1A-/-, shTIP60 and shCDK8) in normoxic and hypoxic (24hrs, 1% O2) conditions. PolyA RNA for two independent biological replicates was purified from HCT116 cells stably expressing an shRNA against a non-targeting control (shNT), TIP60 (shTIP60) or CDK8 (shCDK8), or genetically deleted HIF1A (HIF1A-/-) subjected to 24hrs 1% O2 (hypoxia) or maintained under ambient oxygen (21%; normoxia) was sequenced on the Ion Torrent platform. Reads were aligned to the human genome and gene-level counts were used for differential expression analysis.
Project description:To test if CDK8 acts directly at HIF1A target genes, we performed ChIP-seq experiments in HCT116 cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. ChIP-seq for CDK8 versus Input under normoxia and 24hrs hypoxia (1% O2).
Project description:Methylation analysis of normal lymphocytes, HCT116, RKO and SW480 In vitro methylated DNA (IVD) generated from normal lymphocytes, HCT116, RKO and SW480 genomic DNA was subjected to sodium bisulfite treatment and the DNA was analyzed for CpG methylation using the Infinium Methylation Array.
