Project description:We performed paired-end poly A+ RNA sequencing using total RNA isolated from U2OS cells that are synchronised into G1, G1/S, S, G2 and M phase of cell cycle.
Project description:Nuclear 3’ to 5’ nuclease RNA exosome plays a key role in quality control and processing of multiple protein-coding and non-coding transcripts made by RNA polymerase II. A mechanistic understanding of exosome function remains a challenge given the large number of RNA species and intervening RNA processing factors. Here we analysed changes in the poly(A)+ RNA proteins interactome provoked by mutations in three distinct subunits of the nuclear RNA exosome. Our data demonstrate a functional connection between Rrp6 and Mtl1 in controlling processing and levels of multiple protein-coding and non-coding transcripts. Furthermore, we show that exosome mutants accumulate components of U1 and U2 snRNPs and show depletion of NTC components from RNA suggesting that the stage prior to the activation of the spliceosome represents a critical quality control step. We have also identified potential new RNA binding factors involved in exosome regulation, including a zinc-finger protein called Mub1 that controls levels of selected transcripts encoding for proteins implicated in stress response. Collectively, our data have provided a global view of RNA metabolism alterations in exosome deficient cells and revealed RNA binding proteins that may act as novel exosome cofactors.

Project description:Purpose: Streptomyces albulus is an industrial producer of ε-poly-L-lysine, an antimicrobial cationic homo poly-amino acid used practically as a natural food preservative. Here, we present RNA sequencing data set unveiling differentially expressed transcripts during ε-poly-L-lysine production in the most extensively studied poly-L-Lys producer, S. albulus NBRC14147. Methods: During the poly-L-Lys fermentation, cells grown for 8 hours and 35 hours were harvested as growth phase cells and production phase cells, respectively, and total RNA were extracted individually. A 100-bp paired-end mRNA sequencing was performed for each sample on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 system. Result: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we were able to map more than 44 million sequence reads per sample to the reference genome (GenBank accession number ASM385166v1). Differential gene expression analysis was performed using the edgeR. The RNA-seq data revealed that a total of 2449 genes were considered to be differentially expressed during poly-L-Lys production using a fold change cutoff of log2 less than -1 and greater than 1 (equivalent to a ±2-fold change). Conclusion: Our data will serve as a primary source for investigating the regulatory mechanism which govern poly-L-Lys production in S. albulus NBRC14147.
