Project description:The essential myosin light chain (ELC) is part of the cardiac myosin motor regulating the contractility of the heart. Recently, we have demonstrated ELC phosphorylation to be responsible not only for basal maintenance of cardiac contractility, but also for the adaptation of sarcomere function to increased demands in adult zebrafish (Scheid et al. Cardiovascular Research, 2016). However, the direct interacting kinases, phosphatases as well as the signaling pathway mediating the ELC phosphorylation are mostly unknown. Here, we aim to identify ELC interacting proteins in zebrafish heart tissue using an ELC-specific precipitation assay followed by mass spectrometry. In brief, ELC specific co-immunoprecipitation was performed by using the Dynabeads Co-immunoprecipitation Kit (Invitrogen, #14321D). Custom-specific polyclonal ELC antibodies (Eurogentec, peptide for immunization: NH2-CAPVPETPKEPEVDLK-CONH2) against zebrafish ELC were covalently coupled to DynabeadsTM M-270 Epoxy (Invitrogen, #14302D) and whole zebrafish heart protein was used as input. All steps were carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Project description:Enhancers can regulate the transcription of genes over long genomic distances. This is thought to lead to selection against genomic rearrangements within such regions that may disrupt this functional linkage. We tested this concept experimentally using the human X chromosome. We describe a scoring method to identify evolutionary maintenance of linkage between conserved non-coding elements and neighbouring genes. Chromatin marks associated with enhancer function are strongly correlated with the linkage score. We tested more than 1,000 putative enhancers by transgenesis assays in zebrafish to ascertain the identity of the target gene, with a focus on genes involved in X-linked intellectual disabilities (ID). The majority of active enhancers drive a transgenic expression in a pattern consistent with the known expression of a linked gene. These results show that evolutionary maintenance of linkage is a reliable predictor of an enhancer's function, and provide new information to discover the genetic basis of diseases caused by the mis-regulation of gene expression.

Project description:NIMA-related kinase 9 (NEK9) was identified to interact with the essential myosin light chain (ELC). To validate these findings ascorbate peroxidase (APEX) catalyzed proximity labeling (Hung et al. Nat Protoc. 2016) was performed. To do so, human ELC fused to APEX was overexpressed in HEK293 cells. Empty pcDNA3-APEX2-NES vector serves as negative control. Half of each sample was treated with H2O2, which catalyzes protein labeling in close proximity of ELC. After streptavidin pull down of labeled proteins, the samples were analyzed by mass spectrometry.

Project description:The myosin light chain protein family consists of two classes, the regulatory myosin light chains (RLC) and the essential myosin light chains (ELC). Functionally, the MLC proteins are directly involved in sarcomeric activity and force transmission contributing to cardiac contractility. Besides regulating contractility by protein-protein interactions alone, MLCs modulate force transmission through posttranslational phosphorylation. The MLC phosphorylation status in human cardiac disease is under investigation. In contrast to RLC, the phosphorylation pattern of ELC in human heart disease is not well understood. Here, 2-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis followed by ELC specific immunoblot (IB) was performed to detect the ELC phosphorylation pattern of human left ventricular tissue. Cardiac proteins were separated by isoelectric point (pI) and molecular weight (MW) (vELC: MW 21,932 kDa, pI 5.03; vRLC: MW 19 kDa, pI 4.89). Next, we performed mass-spectrometry analysis after cutting the spot-regions in question from silver-stained 2D gels of proteins from the human tissue. The aim was 1) to validate the detection of the MLC migration pattern seen in 2D IB by mass spectrometry, 2) to distinguish between atrial and ventricular MLC isoforms as these two forms might converge on 2D gel (vELC: MW 21.932 kDa, pI 5.03; aELC: 21.550 kDa, pI 4.98) and 3) to detect phosphorylated amio acid residues of ELC and RLC in human ventricular tissue.

Project description:The hypersensitive response (HR) system of Chenopodium spp. confers broad-spectrum virus resistance. However, scant knowledge exists at the genomic level for Chenopodium, thus impeding the advanced molecular research of this attractive feature. Hence we took advantage of RNA-seq to survey the foliar transcriptome of C. amaranticolor, one Chenopodium species being widely used as laboratory indicator for pathogenic viruses, in order to facilitate the characterization of the HR-type of virus resistance. In a single run, we obtained 39,868,984 reads with 3,588,208,560 bp, which were assembled into 112,453 unigenes (3,848 clusters and 108,605 singletons). BlastX search against the NCBI NR database identified 62,482 sequences with a cut-off E-value above 10-5. Assembled sequences were annotated with gene descriptions, GO, COG and KEGG terms. A dataset containing 738 resistance gene analogs and sequences represent 6 key signaling proteins within the R proteins-directed signaling pathway was generated. Additionally, using RNA-Seq digital gene expression analysis, we investigated the gene expression profiles over the stage of HR induced by Tobacco mosaic virus and Cucumber mosaic virus in C. amaranticolor leaves, and identified numerous candidate genes specifically or commonly regulated by these two distinct viruses at early and late stages of the HR. Specifically, the dynamic changes of the differently expressed genes enriched in the pathway of plant-pathogen interaction were analyzed. To our knowledge, this is the first study to elucidate the genetic makeup of Chenopodium spp., providing a starting-point for future functional genomics studies on Chenopodium.

Project description:A large body of work has demonstrated that leptospires regulate and modify gene expression in response to environmental cues, as encountered during disease transmission, including changes in temperature, osmolarity, concentration of iron, the presence of serum, and interaction with macrophages. However, since leptospires are not readily amenable to genetic manipulation, the functional and biological significance of these differentially expressed genes often remains unclear. More recently, it is been shown that proteins, in response to changing environmental conditions, can be modified further by specific post-translational modifications. Indeed, both saprophytic and pathogenic leptospires have comprehensive systems to modify proteins. The paucibacillary nature of spirochetal infections, combined with the challenges associated with acquiring pathogens free from contaminating host proteins makes the study of these bacteria in a mammalian host-adapted state inherently difficult. As an alternative approach, we developed a model in which leptospires are cultivated in a dialysis membrane chamber (DMC) implanted within the peritoneal cavity of rats, where they are exposed to the environmental cues encountered during host infection. This strategy has been successfully applied to compare the transcriptome of L. interrogans cultivated within DMC with that of leptospires grown under standard in vitro conditions. In addition to determining the relative expression levels of ‘‘core’’ housekeeping genes under both growth conditions, we identified 166 genes that were differentially-expressed by L. interrogans in response to mammalian host signals. The proteome of DMC (dialysis membrane chamber) cultivated leptospires was compared to that of in vivo derived leptospires and with leptospires cultivated in vitro at 30°C or 37°C by 2-dimensional difference in gel electrophoresis (2-D DIGE). Our analysis indicates that the abundance of leptospire-proteins is modulated the expression of a range of proteins which are differentially expressed in response to mammalian host signals, and not temperature alone . In addition, we confirm that in several proteins there is a change in the presence of modify the expression of the post-translational modifications trimethyllysine and acetyllysine in response to environmental cues encountered during persistent renal colonization in a reservoir host of infection. These results provide novel insights in the proteome level changes, including to differential protein and post-translational modifications, expressed in response to mammalian host signals which can be used to further define the unique equilibrium that exists between pathogenic leptospires and their reservoir host of infection.
