Project description:We report here a Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne-thiol reaction forming thiotriazoles as the major by-product under widely used bioorthogonal protein labelling “click” conditions. The development of Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) had tremendous impact on many biological discoveries. However, the considered chemoselectivity of CuAAC is hampered by high reactivity of cysteine free thiols yielding thiotriazole protein conjugates. The reaction by-products generate false positive protein hits in “functional” proteomic studies. The reported detail investigation of conjugates between chemical probes containing terminal alkynes, azide-tags and cell lysates reveals formation of thiotriazoles, which can be readily detected by in-gel fluorescence scanning or after peptide and protein enrichment by MS-based proteomics. The produced fluorescent bands or enriched proteins may not result from the important enzymatically driven reaction and can be falsely assigned as hits. This study provides a complete list of the most common background proteins. The knowledge of this previously overlooked reactivity now leads to improved experimental design. Here, we present modified CuAAC conditions, which avoids the undesired product formation and diminishes the background.

Project description:We report RNA sequencing data from adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hASCs) functionalized via metabolic glycoengineering with pendant azide sialosides. Beyond the impact of this cell surface engineering on transcriptome, we explore the expression profiles of azide-hASCs covalently tethered to an interfacial glycosaminoglycan via bioorthogonal click chemistry and yielding a 3D multicellular construct. We find global gene expression changes in response to metabolic glycoengineering in 2D cell culture conditions as well as those arising from cell-to-cell tethering into 3D environments.

Project description:Enzymatic methylation of cytosine to 5-methylcytosine in DNA is a fundamental epigenetic mechanism involved in mammalian development and disease. DNA methylation is brought about by collective action of three AdoMet-dependent DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), whose catalytic interactions and temporal interplay are poorly understood. We used structure-guided engineering of the Dnmt1 methyltransferase to enable catalytic transfer of azide tags onto DNA from a synthetic cofactor analog, Ado-6-azide, in vitro . We then CRISPR-edited the Dnmt1 locus in mouse embryonic stem cells to install the engineered codon, which, following pulse- internalization of the Ado-6-azide cofactor by electroporation, permitted selective azide-tagging of Dnmt1-specific genomic targets in cellula . The deposited covalent tags were exploited as ‘click’ handles for reading adjoining sequences and precise genomic mapping of the methylation sites. The proposed approach, Dnmt-TOP-seq, enables high-resolution temporal tracking of the Dnmt1 catalysis in mammalian cells paving the way to selective studies of other methylation pathways in eukaryotic systems.

Project description:To characterize the effect of cell cyle elongation on nascent transcription during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) of Xenopus laevis embryos, we microinjected 5-ethynyl uridine (EU) into 1-cell stage embryos and treated the embryos with 0.2 mg/ml of cycloheximide (CHX) to arrest them in interphase from 5 hpf to 7.5 hpf. Control and CHX-arrested embryos were collected for isolating total RNAs, followed by biotinylation using disulfide biotin azide via click reaction and purification of nascent transcripts using streptavidin beads. Libraries were constructed and sequenced on illumina NextSeq 500.

Project description:Recent findings regarding NAD+-capped RNAs (NAD-RNAs) indicate that prokaryotes and eukaryotes employ non-canonical RNA capping to regulate genes, a previously unrecognized mechanism. Two methods for transcriptome-wide analysis of NAD-RNAs, NAD captureSeq and NAD tagSeq, are based on copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition click chemistry reaction to label NAD-RNAs. However, copper can fragment RNA, interfering with the analyses. Here we report development of NAD tagSeq II, which uses copper-free, strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition for labeling NAD-RNAs, followed by identification of tagged RNA by direct RNA sequencing. Using this method, we compared NAD-RNA and total transcript profiles of E. coli cells in the exponential and stationary phases and identified hundreds of NAD-RNA species. For some genes, the majority of their transcripts were found as NAD-RNAs. Our study indicates that NAD-RNAs are preferentially produced from inducible genes in response to different growth conditions.

Project description:Upon finding that the tetracyclines COL-3 and doxycycline target unique rRNA substructures of the 80S ribosome (E-MTAB-7147), we confirmed these putative ribosomal binding sites by showing that tetracycline-based crosslinking probes are specifically competed from these rRNA structures by their parent drugs. In short, we incorporated dual bioorthogonal handles into tetracycline-based probes, containing both a photoactive diazirine to enable direct probe crosslinking to the human ribosome and an azide handle to allow selective enrichment of crosslinked biomolecules via copper-free ‘click’ chemistry. The COL-3 and doxycycline probes were each incubated with A375 cells, followed by irradiation at 365 nm to induce photolysis of the diazirine moiety and subsequent crosslinking to adjacent ribosomal components. Pulldown and RNA-Seq of the crosslinked RNAs from our experiments were used to identify enrichment of reverse transcription (RT) stops at ribosomal RNA sites caused by local crosslinking of our probes. In these experiments, UV crosslinking was preformed with the COL-3 and doxycycline probe compounds in the presence and absence of free COL-3 and doxycycline (i.e., parent tetracycline molecules lacking the bifunctional diazirine-azide moiety), which were used as competitors to specifically diminish crosslinking to the ribosomal RNA. Crosslinking to ribosomal RNA was determined using RNA-Seq based RT stop enrichment, which was was also compared to inactive tetracycline probes containing a modified bifunctional linker, a non-specific aniline probe, and untreated controls.

Project description:Following the identification of the 80S ribosome as a putative target of the tetracycline analogs Col3 and doxycycline, we next sought to identify the precise binding sites for these tetracyclines within the ribonucleoprotein complex. We incorporated dual bioorthogonal handles into tetracycline-based probes, containing both a photoactive diazirine to enable direct probe crosslinking to the human ribosome and an azide handle to allow selective enrichment of crosslinked biomolecules via copper-free click chemistry. The Col-3 and doxycycline probes were each incubated with A375 cells, followed by irradiation at 365 nm to induce photolysis of the diazirine moiety and subsequent crosslinking to adjacent ribosomal components. Pulldown and RNA-Seq of the crosslinked RNAs from our experiments were used to identify enrichment of reverse transcription (RT) stops at ribosomal RNA sites caused by local crosslinking of our probes. This RNA-Seq based RT stop enrichment analysis was compared to results using an non-specific aniline control probe and untreated controls.

Project description:Changes in protein expression drive both the acute responses and long-lasting adaptation of cells to internal and external stimuli. While advances in labelling strategies have made it possible to examine general proteome dynamics, it is still not possible to access the proteomes of specific cell types in vivo in vertebrates. Here we describe a transgenic mouse line where Cre-recombinase-induced expression of a mutant methionyl-tRNA synthetase (L274G) enables the cell type-specific labelling of nascent proteins with a non-canonical amino-acid and click chemistry. Using immunoblotting, imaging and mass spectrometry, we demonstrate the metabolic labelling of proteins in genetically-targeted neurons in brain slices and in vivo. Moreover, we discover over 200 proteins that are regulated in hippocampal excitatory neurons by exposing mice to an enriched environment. As such, this approach opens new avenues for the isolation, analysis and quantitative comparison of cell type-specific proteomes and their dynamics in healthy and diseased tissues.

Project description:To characterize the nascent transcriptome during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) of Xenopus laevis embryos, we microinjected 5-ethynyl uridine (EU) into 1-cell stage embryos and isolated total RNAs from whole embryos at 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 hours post-fertilization (hpf) at room temperature, respectively, covering the stages of pre-ZGA to widespread ZGA (stage 7-9). To purify nascent transcripts, total RNAs were biotinylated using disulfide biotin azide via click reaction and biotinylated nascent transcripts were purified using streptavidin beads. Libraries were constructed from using the total RNA ('All'), nascent transcripts ('Bead') and the flowthrough after purification of nascent transcripts ('FL'), respectively. To categorize maternal-zygotic (MZ) genes and zygotic-only (Z) genes, total RNAs from eggs were isolated for constructing libraries. All libraries were sequenced on illumina NextSeq 500.

Project description:We design and test a novel di-azido LASER reagent capable enrichment through attachment of biotin with strain-promoted azide alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC). We term this approach in vivo click LASER or icLASER. Aligned with the goal of extending transcriptome-wide measurements of RNA structure and to develop an approach that takes advantage of combinatorial RNA structure probing,we then use this novel bi-functional probe to interrogate LASER reactivity transcriptome-wide, revealing the first solvent accessibility transcriptome map. We also directly compare icSHAPE (hydroxyl acylation; flexibility) and icLASER (solvent accessibility) to demonstrate the power of utilizing them together to predict RNA-protein interactions and RNA polyadenylation.Our results demonstrate that combinatorial RNA structure probing can be employed to compliment orthogonal methods to better understand RNA structure and processing in cells transcriptome-wide.
