Project description:To study the effect of rs1192691 on histone modifications, we performed H3K27ac, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K9me3 in SKOV3(AA) and SKOV3(CC).
Project description:To study the effect of rs1192691 on ovarian cancer cells, we generated SKOV3(CC) from SKOV3(A/A) using CRISPR/Cas9 technology and performed RNA-seq.
Project description:A work for studying the effect of rs1192691 on repressing VAV3 enhancer activity via affecting EZH2 enrichment at the SNP location.
Project description:we deep-sequenced two small RNA libraries made from V. longisporum infected/non-infected roots and employed Brassica rapa and Brassica oleracea genomes as reference for miRNA prediction and characterization as well. We identified 893 B. napus miRNAs representing 360 conserved and 533 novel miRNAs, and mapped 429 and 464 miRNAs to AA and CC genomes, respectively. Among them, 62 miRNAs were responsive to the V. longisporum infection.
Project description:Gene expression changes in the lung was studied by RNAseq in different CC mouse strains infected with influenza A virus. Results: Strong differences between the genetically CC mouse strains can be observed in the activation of host defense genes. These differences can be related to genetic variants in the genome of the CC strains. Furthermore, different strains exhibit variant susceptibility to infections (body weight loss and survival). These differences can be correlated to differences in gene expression profiles.
Project description:CC-671 has been identified as an inhibitor of Cdc2-like kinase 2 (CLK2) and TTK in direct enzyme assays. CLK2 is a member of the CLK family that phosphorylates serine- and arginine-rich (SR) proteins of the spliceosomal complex as part of a regulatory mechanism for control of pre-mRNA splicing. SR proteins are a family of small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) splicing factors involved in constitutive and alternative splicing. Monitoring specific phospho-biomarkers of CLK2 demonstrated that CC-671 inhibited phosphorylation of CLK2 substrates in cancer cells with mean IC50 of 549 nM in the triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) line CAL51. In this study, RNA sequencing approach was used to quantify the impact of CC-671 treatment on gene transcription and global alternative splicing in CAL51 cells. Differential exon usage analysis demonstrated that CC-671 changed alternative splicing of many genes. In addition, different sets of genes are impacted by CC-671 at both the alternative splicing and mRNA expression. Genes impacted by alternative splicing shared a set of common pathways with genes altered by mRNA expression. This result indicates that CC-671 regulates transcription via both gene expression and alternative splicing mechanisms.
Project description:The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptome differences between SKOV3 and rhCCL20-treated SKOV3 cells and identify the defferential expressed genes regulated by rhCCL20 in SKOV3 cells. We treated SKOV3 cells with 5% trehalose (control group) and rhCCL20 protein dissolved in 5% trehalose (experimental group) in vitro. The cells were collected 24 hours after treatment and used for RNA-sequencing.
