Project description:We used digital microfluidics (DMF) for the sample preparation of approximately 100 mammalian cells, and subsequent bottom-up proteome analysis by LC-MS. This comprised optimization of cell lysis conditions for DMF, the development of detergent-buffer systems, and adaptation of the single-pot, solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3) approach on-chip. Application of the methodology to the proteome analysis of Jurkat T cells led to the identification of up to 2,500 proteins from approximately 500 cells, and up to 1,200 proteins from approximately 100 cells.

Project description:HIV-1 spreads between CD4 T cells most efficiently through virus-induced cell-cell contacts. To test whether this process potentiates viral spread by activating signaling pathways we developed an approach to analyze the phosphoproteome in infected and uninfected mixed population T cells using differential metabolic labeling and mass spectrometry. We discovered HIV-1 induced activation of signaling networks during viral spread encompassing over 200 cellular proteins. Strikingly, pathways downstream of T cell receptor were the most significantly activated, despite the absence of canonical antigen dependent stimulation. The importance of this pathway was demonstrated by depletion of proteins and we show that HIV-1 Env mediated cell-cell contact, T cell receptor and the Src kinase Lck were essential for signaling dependent enhancement of viral dissemination. This study demonstrates that manipulation of signaling at immune cell contacts by HIV-1 is essential for promoting virus replication and defines a new paradigm for antigen independent T cell signaling.

Project description:The analysis of single cell proteomes has recently become a viable complement to transcript and genomics studies. Proteins are the main driver of cellular functionality and mRNA levels are often an unreliable proxy of such. Therefore, the global analysis of the proteome is essential to study cellular identities. Both multiplexed and label-free mass spectrometry-based approaches with single cell resolution have lately attributed surprising heterogeneity to believed homogenous cell populations. Even though specialized experimental designs and instrumentation have demonstrated remarkable advances, the efficient sample preparation of single cells still lacks behind. Here, we introduce the proteoCHIP, a universal option for single cell proteomics sample preparation at surprising sensitivity and throughput. The automated processing using a commercial system combining single cell isolation and picoliter dispensing, the cellenONE®, allows to reduce final sample volumes to low nanoliters submerged in a hexadecane layer simultaneously eliminating error prone manual sample handling and overcoming evaporation. With this specialized workflow we achieved around 1,000 protein groups per analytical run at remarkable reporter ion signal to noise while reducing or eliminating the carrier proteome. We identified close to 2,000 protein groups across 158 multiplexed single cells from two highly similar human cell types and clustered them based on their proteome. In-depth investigation of regulated proteins readily identified one of the main drivers for tumorigenicity in this cell type. Our workflow is compatible with all labeling reagents, can be easily adapted to custom workflows and is a viable option for label-free sample preparation. The specialized proteoCHIP design allows for the direct injection of label-free single cells via a standard autosampler resulting in the recovery of 30% more protein groups compared to samples transferred to PEG coated vials. We therefore are confident that our versatile, sensitive, and automated sample preparation workflow will be easily adoptable by non-specialized groups and will drive biological applications of single cell proteomics.

Project description:It has been known that aberrant isoforms of Ikaros family ptoteins are expressed in malignant cells. We identified that PBMC of ATL (acute T-cell leukemia) patients expresses different patterns of Helios isoforms compared with normal PBMC. In order to investigate the biological impact of ATL-type Helios isoform, we conducted complehensive gene expression analyses in Jurkat cells overexpressing ATL-type Helios. Also, we investigated the influence of WT-Helios or WT-Ikaros knockdown on the gene expression profile and compared with that of the cells with ATL-type Helios overexpression. Total RNA samples from Jurkat cells were subjected to Cy-3 labeling followed by human whole genome gene expression microarray analyses.

Project description:The hypothesis was tested that the Pbx1-d isoform was responsible for the Sle1a.1 phenotypes in CD4+ T cells. Jurkat T cells were transfected with a lentiviral construct expressing Pbx1-d-GFP or control RFP. Pbx1-d over-expression reduced the percentage of late apoptotic cells in response to anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 stimulation as compared with control-Lin28-transfected cells. Overall, these data demonstrate that over-expression of Pbx1-d results in an activated/inflammatory phenotype and in a defective response to RA in Jurkat T cells, strongly suggesting that the increased expression of Pbx1-d is responsible for the Sle1a.1 phenotypes. Jurkat T cells (5 x 105 cells/ml) were transfected with an lentiviral (LV) vector expressing either control (RFP or Lin28) or Pbx1-d-GFP. Total RNA was extracted from GFP+ or RFP+ FACS-sorted Jurkat T cells transfected LV-GFP-Pbx1-d or LV-RFP, as well as non-transfected cells in 4 independent transfections per group.

Project description:To identify chromatin alterations in primary gastric adenocarcionomas, we performed nano-scale chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (Nano-CHiPseq) of histone modifications in 5 gastric cancers and matched normal tissues, We identified hundreds of somatically-altered promoters (marked by H3K4me3) and enhancers (H3K4me1). The majority of cancer-associated promoters localized to genomic sites lacking previously-annotated transcription start sites (“cryptic promoters”), driving high expression of nearby genes implicated in gastrointestinal cancers, embryonic development, and tissue specification. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of performing chromatin profiling on solid tumors where tissue is limiting, to identify in non-coding regions regulatory elements, transcriptional patterns and genetic variants associated with cancer. We propose a pervasive role for cryptic promoters in the reactivation of early developmental programs in gastric cancer, and the potential utility of cryptic promoters as biomarkers of malignancy. Five gastric cancer tumor normal pairs are profiling in multiple number of chromatin marks

Project description:In this study we aimed to identify novel transcriptional targets of Notch signalling in the T cell leukaemia cell line, Jurkat. RNA was prepared from Jurkat cells retrovirally transduced with an empty vector (Mock) or vectors containing constitutively active forms of Notch (N1deltaE or N3deltaE), and used for Affymetrix microarray analysis. As expected, several known transcriptional target of Notch, such as HES1 and HERP2, were found to be overexpressed in Notch-transduced cells, however, many novel transcriptional targets of Notch signalling were identified using this approach. These included the T cell costimulatory molecule CD28, the anti-apoptotic protein GIMAP5, and inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (1D1).

Project description:Many new alternative splice forms have been detected at the transcript level using next generation sequencing (NGS) methods, especially RNA-Seq, but it is not known how many of these transcripts are being translated. Leveraging the unprecedented capabilities of NGS, we collected RNA-Seq and proteomics data from the same cell population (Jurkat cells) and created a bioinformatics pipeline that builds customized databases for the discovery of novel splice-junction peptides. Results: Eighty million paired-end Illumina reads and ~500,000 tandem mass spectra were used to identify 12,873 transcripts (19,320 including isoforms) and 6,810 proteins. We developed a bioinformatics workflow to retrieve high-confidence, novel splice junction sequences from the RNA data, translate these sequences into the analogous polypeptide sequence, and create a customized splice junction database for MS searching. Jurkat T-cell mRNA was analyzed on an Illumina HiSeq2000. ~80 million paired end reads (2x200bp, ~350bp lengths) were collected.

Project description:To evaluate role of miRNAs in proliferation and death of T cell, we performed miRNA profiling in activated CD4+T cells after IL-2 induction and depletion. Proliferation rate of IL-2 induced cells was measured by MTT assay. Then quantitative RT-PCR arrays on 739 miRNAs revealed up- and down-regulation of 170 miRNAs in IL-2 induced CD4+T cells relative to IL-2 depleted ones. For miRNA profiling, total RNA from activated CD4+T cells in the presence and the absence of IL-2 (0.75 n/ml) after 3 days was extracted. RNA isolation was carried out using miRCURYTM RNA isolation kit. cDNA synthesis and Q-RT-PCR were performed with miRCURY LNATM universal RT microRNA PCR kit. Both kits were purchased from Exiqon (Vedbaek, Denmark). According to manufacturer’s instructions, to synthesize cDNA, total RNA was added to enzyme mix, reaction buffer, and RNA spike-in (control RNA). Then, the mixture was incubated 60 min at 42 °C and 5 min at 95 °C. To perform Q-RT-PCR array, cDNA was added to SYBR green master mix and was dispensed into the 384-well plates (by a specific LNATM primer pair/ well); then the reaction was performed using a real-time PCR cycler (Roche LC480, USA) according to this program: 95°C for 10 min, 45 cycles at 95˚C for 10 sec, 60˚C for 1 min. For miRNA profiling, two 384-well plates (human panel I & II) were used and each reaction was performed twice. Each panel contained 6 reference primer sets as well as one control primer set (that targeted a synthetic spike-in RNA) and an inter-plate calibrator in triplicate. To analyze Q-RT-PCR data, GenEx software and ΔΔCT method were used. By Normfinder, SNORD49A (snoRNA U49) gene was identified as optimal reference gene for normalization. Fold change of each miRNA was calculated by the equation 2−ΔΔCT and logarithmically transformed (base 2). P-values were adjusted for multiple comparisons using Dunn-Benferroni correction.

Project description:Insulators are DNA elements, which prevent inappropriate interactions between the neighboring regions of the genome. They can be functionally classified as either enhancer blockers or domain barriers. CTCF (CCCTC binding factor) is the only known major insulator binding protein in the vertebrates and has been shown to bind many enhancer-blocking elements. However, it is not clear whether it plays a role in chromatin domain barriers between active and repressive domains. Here, we used ChIP-Seq to map the genome-wide binding sites of CTCF in three cell types and identified significant binding of CTCF to the boundaries of repressive chromatin domains marked by H3K27me3. Although we find an extensive overlapping of CTCF binding sites across the three cell types, its association with the domain boundaries is cell type-specific. We further show that the nucleosomes flanking CTCF binding sites are well positioned and associated with histone H2AK5 acetylation (H2AK5ac). Interestingly, we found a complementary pattern between the repressive H3K27me3 and the active H2AK5ac regions, which are separated by CTCF. Our findings indicate that CTCF may play important roles in the barrier activity of insulators and provide a resource for further investigation of the CTCF function in organizing chromatin in the human genome. Examination of the role of CTCF in chromatin domain barrier function In addition to the ChIP-seq analysis, two replicates of HeLa expression data were studied.
