Stimulation of the atypical chemokine receptor 3 inhibits connexin 43 gap junctional intercellular communication

ABSTRACT: The atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) plays a pivotal role in directing the migration of various cellular populations and its over-expression in various tumors promotes cell proliferation and invasiveness. The intracellular cellular pathways transducing ACKR3-dependent effects remain poorly characterized, an issue we addressed by characterizing the the interactome of recombinant ACKR3 expressed in HEK293T cells. Among the ACKR3-interacting proteins identified, we focused on the gap junction protein Connexin 43 (Cx43).

Project description:Eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (Pol II) has evolved an array of heptad repeats with the consensus sequence Tyr1-Ser2-Pro3-Thr4-Ser5-Pro6-Ser7 at the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of the large subunit (Rpb1). Differential phosphorylation of Ser2, Ser5, and Ser7 in the 5M-bM-^@M-^Y and 3M-bM-^@M-^Y regions of genes coordinates the binding of transcription and RNA processing factors to the initiating and elongating polymerase complexes. Here, we report phosphorylation of Thr4 by Polo-like-kinase-3 in mammalian cells. ChIPseq analyses indicate an increase of Thr4-P levels in the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y region of genes occurring subsequently to an increase of Ser2-P levels. A Thr4/Ala mutant of Pol II displays a lethal phenotype. This mutant reveals a global defect in RNA elongation, while initiation is largely unaffected. Since Thr4 replacement mutants are viable in yeast we conclude that this amino acid has evolved an essential function(s) in the CTD of Pol II for gene transcription in mammalian cells. In this study, we investigated the function and ChIPseq genome-wide profiling of Thr4P residue (using the 6D7 antibody) of the Pol II CTD in Raji human B cells in comparison with either total Pol II profiling (N20 antibody, santa-cruz sc-899x), Ser5P CTD (3E8) or Ser2P (3E10) profiling in WT Raji cells. In another set of experiments, we also analysed total Pol II profiling (using an HA tag at the N-terminus of RPB1 and HA antibody Abcam ab9110) when endogenous enzyme is shut down by alpha-amanitin and replaced by either a recominant Pol II with 48 consensus repeats of the CTD (con48) or a mutated version where Thr4 residues were replaced by Ala (Thr4-Ala).In total 6 experimental sets (Pol IIt, Ser5P, Ser2P, Thr4P, con48, Thr4-Ala) were generated for our analysis and for each a biological replicate was performed. Biological replicates were merged when the data showed comparable signal noise ratio. Otherwise a unique replicate, showing the best noise ratio, was chosen for further analysis although the second replicate (for Ser2P and Thr4-Ala experiments). An input control (genomic DNA extracted after reverse crosslinking of the nuclear chip extracts) was performred and used for substraction to the ChIP experiments. One specific input material was used for wt cells, one for con48 and one for Thr4-Ala. Our data were processed to generate final wig files using our in house analysis pipeline essentially as described in Koch et al, (2011) NSMB 18 (8) p956.In brief, after alignment, sequence tags are: (i) artefact removed, (ii) elongated to an in silico optimized actual size of the initial fragments , (iii) input substracted, (iv) merged if applicable, (v) scaled for all experiments to correct for variation of tag number in between experiments. Several of the raw data files were no longer available.

Project description:Determining how facultative anaerobic organisms sense and direct cellular responses to electron acceptor availability has been a subject of intense study. However, even in the model organism Escherichia coli, established mechanisms only explain a small fraction of the hundreds of genes that are regulated during shifts in electron acceptor availability. Here we propose a qualitative model that accounts for the full breadth of regulated genes by detailing how two global transcription factors (TFs), ArcA and Fnr of E. coli, sense key metabolic redox ratios and act on a genome-wide basis to regulate anabolic, catabolic, and energy generation pathways. We first fill gaps in our knowledge of this transcriptional regulatory network by carrying out ChIP-chip and gene expression experiments to identify 463 regulatory events. We then interfaced this reconstructed regulatory network with a highly curated genome-scale metabolic model to show that ArcA and Fnr regulate > 80% of total metabolic flux and 96% of differential gene expression across fermentative and nitrate respiratory conditions. Finally, based on the data we propose a feedforward with feedback trim regulatory scheme by showing extensive repression of catabolic genes by ArcA and extensive activation of chemiosmotic genes by Fnr. We further corroborated this regulatory scheme by showing a 0.71 r2 (p < 1e-6) correlation between changes in metabolic flux and changes in regulatory activity across fermentative and nitrate respiratory conditions. We also are able to relate the proposed model to a wealth of previously generated data by contextualizing the existing transcriptional regulatory network. We integrated transcription factor binding regions and mRNA transcript abundance to elucidate the ArcA and Fnr regulons experimentally. To measure transcription factor binding at a genome scale, we employed a ChIP-chip method to derivative strains of E. coli K-12 MG1655 harboring ArcA-8myc or Fnr-8myc under various conditions. The E. coli strains harboring Fnr-8myc and ArcA-8myc were generated as described previously [PMID 16454042]. A 12 chip study with two different strains under two different culture conditions.

Project description:InvF ChIP-chip on Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium SL1344 using anti-Myc antibody against strain with chromosomally 9Myc-tagged InvF (IP samples) and wildtype strain (mock IP samples) Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium causes a range of diseases from self-limiting gastroenteritis to life-threatening systemic infections. Its complex infection process is initiated by the invasion of the intestinal epithelial monolayer by means of a type three secretion system. InvF is one of the key regulators governing the invasion of epithelial cells. By mapping the InvF regulon, i.e. locating its direct target genes, the gene network underlying invasion can be further examined, including identifying possible new effector-encoding genes. In order to map the InvF regulon, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation combined with tiling microarray analysis (ChIP-chip) and compared expression of the identified target genes in an invF mutant and a wildtype strain. In addition, the promoter regions of these target genes were searched for the presence of an InvF recognition site. Finally, a query-driven biclustering method, combined with a microarray compendium containing publically available S. Typhimurium gene expression data, was applied as an in silico validation technique for functional relatedness between newly identified target genes and known invasion genes. As expected, under invasion inducing conditions, InvF activates the expression of invasion chaperone encoding sicA and the effector-encoding genes sopB, sopE, sopE2 and sopA by binding their promoter region. Newly identified InvF targets are steB, encoding a secreted effector, and STM1239. The presence of an InvF recognition site in the promoter regions of these target genes further supports this observation. In addition, the query-driven biclustering method revealed similarities in expression profiles between STM1239 and known InvF regulated invasion genes over a range of experimental conditions. In conclusion, we here deliver the first evidence for direct binding of InvF to the promoter regions of sopA and sopE2, and associate genes encoding a secreted effector (steB) and a putative novel effector (STM1239) with the Salmonella invasion regulator InvF. Three IP samples (from three biological replicates using anti-Myc antibody against Salmonella Typhimurium SL1344 strain encoding chromosomally 9Myc-tagged InvF) and three control mock IP samples (from three biological replicates using anti-Myc antibody against Salmonella Typhimurium SL1344 wildtype strain) were labeled with Cy5 and hybridized against a common genomic DNA reference, labeled with Cy3, on 6 S.
