2D-PAGE coupled with nLC-MS/MS-based identification of differentialy expressed proteins and tumorigenic pathways in MCF7 breast cancer cell line transfected for JTB protein silencing

ABSTRACT: Identification of new cancer-associated genes/proteins, characterization of their expression vari-ation, the interactomics-based assessment of differentially expressed genes/proteins (DEGs/DEPs), and understanding the tumorigenic pathways and biological processes involved in BC genesis and progression are necessary and possible by rapid and recent advances in bioin-formatics and molecular profiling strategies. Taking into account the opinion of other authors, as well as based on our own team’s in vitro studies, we sustain that JTB protein might be consid-ered as a tumor biomarker for BC and should be studied as a target for BC therapy. In this study we have identified the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), carcinogenic pathways and bio-logical processes associated with JTB silencing, using 2D-PAGE coupled with nano-liquid chro-matography tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-MS/MS) proteomics applied to MCF7 breast cancer cell line, for complementing and completing our previous results based on SDS-PAGE, as well as in-solution proteomics of MCF7 cells transfected for JTB downregulation. The functions of significant DEPs have been analysed using GSEA and KEGG analysis. Almost all DEPs exert protumorigenic effects in JTBlow condition, sustaining the tumor suppressive function of JTB. Thus, the identified DEPs are involved in several signaling and metabolic pathways that exert protumorigenic roles: EMT, ERK/MAPK, PI3K/AKT, Wnt/β-catenin, mTOR, C-MYC, NF-κB, IFN-γ and IFN-α response, UPR, and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis. These pathways sustain cancer cell growth, adhesion, survival, proliferation, invasion, metastasis, resistance to apoptosis, cytoskeleton reorganization, maintenance of stemness, metabolic reprogramming, survival into a hostile environment, and a poor clinical outocome. In conclusion, JTB silencing might increase the neoplastic phenotype and behavior of MCF7 BC cell line.

Project description:We developed a high-throughput mutagenesis screen to comprehensively identify the cis-regulatory elements that control a target splicing event from the MST1R gene that codes for the RON receptor tyrosine kinase. Skipping of alternative exon 11 results in a constitutively active isoform that promotes epithelial to mesenchymal transition and thereby contributes to the invasive phenotype of tumors. First, we created a library of mutated minigenes via mutagenic PCR. Importantly, the reverse primer introduced a random barcode sequence which labels the associated mutations. Next, the plasmid library was transfected as a pool and depending on the mutations, the transcripts exhibit changes in alternative splicing. The minigene library and the splicing outcome were analyzed by next-generation sequencing and subsequent integration of the datasets resulted in a map of splicing regulatory sites. The DNA-seq experiment was performed to map the mutations and the associated barcodes in order to identify all minigene variants in the library. For sequencing, we generated five overlapping amplicons of the minigene library using four different forward primers: 5’CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATCGGTCTCGGCATTCCTGCTGAACCGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNCTATAGGGAGACCCAAGCTT 3’, 5’CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATCGGTCTCGGCATTCCTGCTGAACCGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNGTTCCACTGAAGCCTGAG 3’, 5’CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATCGGTCTCGGCATTCCTGCTGAACCGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNAGCTGCCAGCACGAGTTC 3’, 5’CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATCGGTCTCGGCATTCCTGCTGAACCGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNGAATCTGAGTGCCCGAGG 3’, and 5’CAAGCAGAAGACGGCATACGAGATCGGTCTCGGCATTCCTGCTGAACCGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNctactggctggtcctcatga 3’, and 5’AATGATACGGCGACCACCGAGATCTACACTCTTTCCCTACACGACGCTCTTCCGATCTNNNNNNNNNNATAGAATAGGGCCCTCTAGA 3’ as a common reverse primer. After amplification, the PCR products were cleaned using the GeneRead size selection Kit (QIAGEN) according to manufacturer’s instructions. The purified products were first analysed with the TapeStation 2200 capillary gel electrophoresis instrument (Agilent) and then fluorimetrically quantified using a Qubit fluorimeter (Thermo Scientific). Sequencing was carried out on the Illumina MiSeq platform using paired-end reads of 300 nt length and a 10% PhiX spike-in to increase sequence complexity.

Project description:Genetically identical cells exhibit large variability (noise) in gene expression, with important consequences for cellular function. Although the amount of noise decreases with and is thus partly determined by the mean expression level, the extent to which different promoter sequences can deviate away from this trend is not known. Here, we study how different noise levels are encoded by the promoter sequence using massively parallel noise measurements of thousands of synthetically designed promoters. We find that the noise levels of promoters with similar mean expression levels can vary over more than one order of magnitude, with nucleosome-disfavoring sequences resulting in lower noise and more transcription factor binding sites resulting in higher noise. We devised a computational model that can accurately predict the mean-independent component of the noise from DNA sequence alone. Our model suggests that the effect of promoters on noise is partly mediated by the combination of non-specific DNA binding and one-dimensional sliding along the DNA that occurs when transcription factors search for their target sites. Overall, our results demonstrate that small changes in the DNA sequence of promoters can allow tuning of noise levels in a manner that is largely predictable and partly decoupled from effects on the mean expression levels. These insights may assist in designing promoters with desired noise levels. Expression measurements of a collection of synthetic promoters collection that was published in Sharon et al. Nature Biotechnology 2012(doi: 10.1038/nbt.2205). Two replicates of the promoter library integrated into a plasmid in yeast were measured in SC-Glu-URA medium. The promoter library was measured as described in Sharon et. al.(Sharon et al. 2012), except for the differences below. Briefly, a large collection of synthetic promoter reporter gene strains was generated by a pooled ligation of 6500 fully designed DNA oligos (obtained by synthesis on a microarray(LeProust et al. 2010) by Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, California). The oligos were ligated upstream to a yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) gene with a short (100 bp) core promoter sequence taken from HIS3 gene promoter and into a low copy plasmid which also contains a TEF2 promoter deriving red fluorescent protein (mCherry). The resulting plasmids were then transformation into yeast (S. cerevisiae). Next, the pool of cells was grown in amino acid starvation condition (SCD without amino acid except Histidine), and sorted according to their YFP expression level into 32 expression bins (mCherry was used for gating one plasmid copy cells and for normalization). The DNA of the promoters in each bin were then amplified and sent to multiplexed parallel sequencing. Each sequencing result was mapped to a specific promoter and expression bin, resulting in a distribution of cells that contain each promoter across all expression bins. The following differences were applied relative to the description in Sharon et. al.(Sharon et al. 2012). The medium used both for growing the cells and for their sorting was SC-Glu-URA (synthetic complete media with 2% glucose and without uracil) medium without amino acids, except for Histidine. In order to achieve expression distributions with high resolution that would allow good assessment of expression noise, the library cells were sorted into 32 bins according to their ratio of YFP and mCherry expression level, thereby normalizing for extrinsic noise effects. Each of the two extreme expression bins contained 2% of the library cells and each of the remaining 30 bins contained 3.2%. We collected a total of 10,000,000 cells. As previously described, the mapping of cells to bins involves parallel sequencing of the amplified promoter regions. For this purpose, Illumina Hi-Seq 2000 was used to obtain >30,000,000 mapped reads. The two replicates were separately generated from the ssDNA oligo library and separately measured as described above.
