A novel esterase, PpEst, that hydrolyses the co-aromatic-aliphatic polyester poly(1,4-butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) was identified by proteomic screening of the Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes secretome. PpEst was induced by the presence of PBAT in the growth media and had predicted arylesterase (EC 3.1.1.2) activity. PpEst showed polyesterase activity on both whole and milled PBAT film releasing terephthalic acid and 4-(4-hydroxybutoxycarbonyl)benzoic acid while end product inhibition ...[more]

Project description:Secreted bacterial RNAs have recently emerged as a novel host-pathogen interaction mode. Naked RNA molecules are highly labile in the extracellular environment and must be protected by packaging into membrane vesicles or into complexes with RNA binding proteins. RNA secretion through membrane vesicles has been shown for several bacterial species but, surprisingly, proteins that bind and stabilize bacterial RNAs in the extracellular environment have not been reported yet. Here, we show that the bacterial pathogen L. monocytogenes secretes a small RNA binding protein that we named Zea. We show that Zea binds and stabilizes a subset of L. monocytogenes RNA, causing its accumulation in the extracellular medium. Zea modulates L. monocytogenes in vivo. Furthemore, Zea binds the mammalian non-self-RNA innate immunity sensor RIG-I and potentiates RIG-I-signaling during infection. This study provides a mechanism for the stability of extracellular RNA and unveils how secreted bacterial RNAs participate in the host-pathogen crosstalk.

Project description:The human-specific, Gram-negative bacterium Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) is a leading cause of bacterial meningitis world-wide. It has been described that Nm can enter the central nervous system via the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB), which is constituted by the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus. Using a recently established in vitro model of the human BCSFB based on human malignant choroid plexus papilloma (HIBCPP) cells we investigated the cellular response of HIBCPP cells challenged with the meningitis-causing Nm strain MC58. In comparison we analysed the answer to the closely related unencapsulated carrier isolate Nm M-NM-114. Transcriptome analysis revealed a stronger transcriptional response after infection with strain MC58, in particular with its capsule deficient mutant MC58siaD-, which correlated with bacterial invasion levels. Expression evaluation and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis pointed to a NF-M-NM-:B-mediated pro-inflammatory immune response involving up-regulation of the transcription factor IM-NM-:BM-NM-6. Consistent with this, infected cells secreted significant levels of pro-inflammatory chemokines and cytokines, among others, IL8, CXCL1-3 and the IM-NM-:BM-NM-6 target gene product IL6. Expression profile of pattern recognition receptors in HIBCPP cells and the response to specific agonists indicates that TLR2 rather than TLR4 is involved in the cellular reaction following Nm infection. Human malignant choroid plexus papilloma (HIBCPP) cells were infected from the basolateral side with the meningitis-causing Neisseria meningitidis disease isolate MC58, its non-capsulated mutant MC58siaD- and the Neisseria meningitidis carrier isolate M-NM-114 for 4 h.The transcriptional response of HIBCPP cells to the different Neisseria meningitidis strains was evaluated by microarray analysis. Untreated HIBCPP cells served as control. Three replicates of each condition were analysed.

Project description:During tumor progression, cancer cells rewire their metabolism to face their bioenergetic demands. In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as regulatory elements that inhibit the translation and stability of crucial mRNAs, some of them causing direct metabolic alterations in cancer. In this study, we investigated the relationship between miRNAs and their targets mRNAs that control metabolism, and how this fine-tuned regulation is diversified depending on the tumor stage. To do so, we implemented a paired analysis of RNA-seq and small RNA-seq in a breast cancer cell line (MCF7). The cell line was cultured in multicellular tumor spheroid (MCTS) and monoculture conditions. For MCTS, we selected two-time points during their development to recapitulate a proliferative and quiescent stage and contrast their miRNA and mRNA expression patterns associated with metabolism. As a result, we identified a set of new direct putative regulatory interactions between miRNAs and metabolic mRNAs representative for proliferative and quiescent stages. Notably, our study allows us to suggest that miR-3143 regulates the carbon metabolism by targeting hexokinase-2. Also, we found that the overexpression of several miRNAs could directly overturn the expression of mRNAs that control glycerophospholipid and N-Glycan metabolism. While this set of miRNAs downregulates their expression in the quiescent stage, the same set is upregulated in proliferative stages. This last finding suggests an additional metabolic switch of the above mentioned metabolic pathways between the quiescent and proliferative stages. Our results contribute to a better understanding of how miRNAs modulate the metabolic landscape in breast cancer MCTS, which eventually will help to design new strategies to mitigate cancer phenotype.

Project description:As part of the Dystrophia Myotonica Biomarker Discovery Initiative (DMBDI) a dataset was obtained from 35 participants, including 31 Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1) cases and four unaffected controls. All DM1 cases in this research were heterozygous for the abnormally expanded CTG repeat. The mode of the length of the DM1 CTG expansion (Modal Allele Length, MAL) was determined by small-pool PCR of blood DNA for 35/36 patients. For this work we did not attempt to measure the repeat length from muscle, due to a very high degree of repeat instability in muscle cells, and associated difficulties in its experimental measurement. One patient refused blood donation. For each of the 35 blood-donating patients mRNA expression profiling of blood was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip™ Human Exon 1.0 ST microarray. For 28 of 36 patients a successful quadriceps muscle biopsy was obtained. The muscle tissue was mRNA profiled using the same type of microarray. In total, a complete set of samples (blood and muscle) was obtained for 27 of 36 patients; samples were given a disease staging score based on muscle impairment rating. mRNA profiling was carried out by the GeneLogic service lab (on a fee-for-service basis) using standard Affymetrix hybridisation protocol.

Project description:Patients with endometrial hyperplasia representing preliminary stages of endometrial cancer have shown to respond to therapy in 100% of the cases when treated with levonorgestrel -impregnated intrauterine device. Antiproliferative effect has also been reported after application of an anti-progestin impregnated intrauterine device which showed to induce endometrial atrophy. The intention of the present study was to obtain more information of novel therapeutic targets for hormonal treatment in endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancers. Gene expression of signaling pathways after stimulation of Ishikawa cells with high doses of progesterone (10 μM) or Mifepristone (10 μM) was performed. After using an oligo microarrays representing 24,650 human genes and 37,580 gene transcripts, 6,154 genes remained after pre-processing and filtering. This resulted in a total of 993 up-regulated genes with 189 genes for progesterone and 255 genes for Mifepristone. The 550 down regulated genes were distributed with 256 genes for progesterone, 127 genes for RU 486. The results showed that genes presenting the epidermal growth factor (EGF)/MAP-kinase pathway were significantly over-represented by progesterone treatment, whereas, by Mifepristone treatment genes involved in the p53 pathway were also up-regulated (data not shown). These genes may be interesting as potential new therapeutic targets in endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer, as candidate genes for therapy response or as candidate markers for tumor progression. 20 samples, 4 different condition groups with 5 replicates for each group, linear factorial experimental design. Short time (4hrs) dose response to progesterone and Mifepristone in combination and alone. Only 18 samples are represented in this Series.

Project description:The ring-shaped cohesin complex links sister chromatids until their timely segregation during mitosis. Cohesin is enriched at centromeres, where it provides the cohesive counter-force to bi-polar tension produced by the mitotic spindle. As a consequence of spindle tension, centromeric sequences transiently split in pre-anaphase cells, in some organisms up to several micrometeres. This M-bM-^@M-^Xcentromere breathingM-bM-^@M-^Y presents a paradox, how sister sequences separate where cohesin is most enriched. We now show that in the budding yeast S. cerevisiae, cohesin binding diminishes over centromeric sequences that split during breathing. We see no evidence for cohesin translocation to surrounding sequences, suggesting that cohesin is removed from centromeres during breathing. Two pools of cohesin can be distinguished. Cohesin loaded before DNA replication, that has established sister chromatid cohesion, disappears during breathing. In contrast, cohesin loaded after DNA replication is partly retained. As sister centromeres re-associate after transient separation, cohesin is re-loaded in a manner independent of the canonical cohesin loader Scc2/Scc4. Efficient centromere re-association requires the cohesion establishment factor Eco1, suggesting that re-establishment of sister chromatid cohesion contributes to the dynamic behaviour of centromeres in mitosis. These findings provide new insights into cohesin behaviour at centromeres. Keywords: ChIP-chip SAMPLES Origin of each biological sample: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (W303background) Growth conditions: Cells containing the MET3-CDC20 allele were grown at 25M-BM-0C in SC medium lacking methionine with 2% raffinose or 2% glucose as the carbon source (Uhlmann et al. 2000). Cultures were synchronized in G1 with M-NM-1-factor (5 M-NM-<g/ml) and released into medium containing 100 mM hydroxyurea (HU) for arrest in early S-phase. For arrest in metaphase, cells were released from M-NM-1-factor or HU arrest by filtration and re-suspension in YP medium supplemented with 5 mM methionine to deplete Cdc20. To inactivate cohesin loading, cells harbouring the temperature sensitive scc2-4 allele (Ciosk et al. 2000) were shifted to the restrictive temperature of 35M-BM-0C for 1 hour before release. To prevent metaphase spindle assembly, or to disassemble already formed spindles, 7.5 M-NM-<g/ml nocodazole was added to the medium for 1 hour. To wash out nocodazole, cells were filtered again, washed, and re-suspended in fresh medium lacking nocodazole for 1 hour. Expression of Scc1 to induce differentially epitope-tagged cohesin under control of the GAL1 promoter, or of Cdc14, was achieved by addition of 2% galactose for 1 hour to cultures grown in raffinose-containing medium. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Experiment type: ChIP-chip = Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) followed by hybridization to a high-density oligonucleotide microarray (chip). Number of hybridizations performed: 13 ChIP-chip samples; 2 SUPernatant samples Analysis: ChIP samples were normalized against SUPernatant fractions Quality control: Confirmation of results by duplication of experiments, by usage of different epitope tags for the same protein, and by usage of different subunits of the same protein complex. Also, whole cell extract, SUPernatant, and ChIP fractions were checked by Western blotting. Protocols: ChIP-chip and hybridization protocols were performed as previously described (Katou et al. 2003; Lengronne et al. 2004; Lengronne et al. 2006). A summary is provided below: ChIP. Cells were grown under the conditions described above and cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde. Cells were disrupted using a Multi-Beads Shocker, and whole cell extracts were sonicated to obtain 400-600 bp genomic DNA fragments. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed with anti-HA antibody or anti-PK monoclonal antibody coupled to protein A Dynabeads. Immunprecipates were eluted and incubated overnight at 65M-BM-:C to reverse the cross-link. The immunoprecipitated genomic DNA was then incubated with proteinase K, extracted twice with phenol/chloroform/isoamylalcohol, precipitated, resuspended in TE and incubated with RNaseA. The DNA was purified, concentrated by ethanol precipitation and amplified by PCR after random priming. 10ug of the amplified DNA was digested with DNase I and end-labelled using TdT Terminal Transferase and Biotin-N6-ddATP. Hybridization and scanning. Samples were hybridized in buffer containing SSPE, TritonX-100, denatured salmon sperm DNA and biotin-labelled control oligonucleotide, oligo B2. Samples were denatured at 95M-BM-:C for 10 minutes before being hybridized to the arrays for 16 hours at 42M-BM-:C in a GeneChip Hybridization Oven 640. The washing and scanning protocol (FlexMidi_euk2v3_450), provided by Affymetrix, was performed automatically on a GeneChip Fluidics Station 450. Arrays were scanned using the GeneChip Scanner 3000 7G, and primary analysis of tiling chip data was performed using the Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS).

Project description:Serf2 has been identified as a potential modifier of aggregation in the case of several disease-related aggregation-prone proteins, such as amyloid-beta, alpha-synuclein and huntingtin. However, it's endogenous biological function remains unknown. Therefore, we generated Serf2-/- mice using the cre-lox system to explore the endogenous role of Serf2. As the knockout of Serf2 appeared to cause perinatal lethality, we isolated embryonic fibroblasts at embryonic day 13.5 from Serf2+/+ and Serf2-/- embryo's and generated monoclonal cell lines. We compared these cell lines through RNA-sequencing to investigate the role of Serf2 in embryonic development.
