Project description:We modified the CiGEnC cell line by CRISPR Cas9 genome edition to suppress both classI and classII HLA molecules production by CIITA and B2M knock out. After 7 days of differentiation at 37°C, we extracted RNA from the cell line and performed bulk RNA sequencing to provide a basal profile of the whole transcriptom of the cell line
Project description:The goal is to identify new molecules implicated in tolerance, to determine the implication of these molecules in immune responses to transplantation by gene expression comparison of 27,088 individual rat genes between tolerated kidney allotransplant and syngeneic kidney transplant. In this study 27,088 individual rat genes expression from total mRNA of 3 tolerated allogeneic kidney transplants by anti-classII, were compared to 3 syngeneic kidney transplants at day 100 post transplantation.
Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) has been implicated in a variety of developmental and disease processes, such as stem cell differentiation and cancer. A particularly dramatic form of APA has been documented in the developing nervous system of flies and mammals, whereby a variety of neurogenic genes undergo coordinate extension of their 3’ UTRs. In Drosophila, the RNA-binding protein ELAV inhibits RNA processing at proximal polyadenylation (poly(A)) sites, thereby fostering the formation of 3’ extensions that can reach 12 kb in length. Here, we present evidence that paused Pol II plays an important role in the selective recruitment of ELAV to elongated genes. Replacing native promoters of elongated genes with heterologous promoters blocks normal 3’ extension in the nervous system, while native promoters can induce 3’ extension in ectopic tissues expressing ELAV. Computational analyses suggest that the promoter regions of elongated genes tend to contain paused Pol II and associated cis-regulatory elements such as GAGA. ELAV ChIP-Seq assays indicate pervasive binding to the promoter regions of extended genes. Our study provides the first evidence for a regulatory link between promoter-proximal pausing and APA. ELAV ChIP-Seq assays were conducted with nuclei obtained from 6-8 hr and 10-12 hr embryos
Project description:DNase-seq over 2 matching developmental time points in Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila virilis embryos was performed. The aim is to assess conservation of hypersensitive regions between two distantly related species. Samples were sequenced using Illumina NextSeq. This Study is an extension to the previously published Study E-MTAB-3797.
Project description:Erythroid genes having enhancers in a short distance appear to be transcriptionally activated by histone H3K27ac extension and intergenic transcription that are independent from TAL1.
Project description:This sample was prepared with a modified version of the Tn4001 transposon commonly used in Mycoplasmas. This transposon is described to work more efficiently in Mycoplasma agalactiae and, by extension, in other Mycoplasma species. This sample was prepared transforming this bacteria with a newly designed transposon named pMTnGm-SynMyco to test its efficiency by Transposon Sequencing tracked by deep sequencing.
