Identification of dormant cells using a novel fluorescent reporter of RNA-polymerase II activity

Project description:Dormancy is a reversible cellular state in which the cell cycle and metabolic activity of a cell is dramatically decreased, leading to protection from genetic damage and prolonged survival. One example of dormant cells is the somatic stem cell, which is crucial for tissue homeostasis and response to injury or transplantation. However, while dormant cells have been well characterized in some tissues, the ability to identify them irrespective of tissue of origin remains elusive. Moreover, in some tissues (e.g. the intestinal epithelium) dormant stem cells showed heterogeneity in the marker’s profile that makes their identification and isolation challenging. Here, we developed a live cell reporter of dormancy based on our observation that phosphorylation of RNA Polymerase II (RNApII), a hallmark of active mRNA transcription elongation, is largely absent in dormant stem cells from multiple lineages. We show that insertion of a short RNApII kinase target peptide directly into the yellow fluorescent protein Venus generates a live cell Optical Stem Cell Activity Reporter (OSCAR) for detection of dormant cells. We found, using small intestinal crypt cultures, that OSCAR is able to show the dynamics of dormancy induction and cellular differentiation in real time. Generation and analysis of mice ubiquitously expressing OSCAR showed several populations of OSCARhigh and OSCARlow cells. Microscopy, RNA-Seq and single-cell culture confirmed that OSCAR enables direct identification and isolation of cell populations bearing different transcriptional states and provides a useful tool for understanding dormant cell biology.

Establishment of a fluorescent reporter of RNA-polymerase II activity to identify dormant cells.

Project description:Dormancy, a reversible quiescent cellular state characterized by greatly reduced metabolic activity, protects from genetic damage, prolongs survival and is crucial for tissue homeostasis and cellular response to injury or transplantation. Dormant cells have been characterized in many tissues, but their identification, isolation and characterization irrespective of tissue of origin remains elusive. Here, we develop a live cell ratiometric fluorescent Optical Stem Cell Activity Reporter (OSCAR) based on the observation that phosphorylation of RNA Polymerase II (RNApII), a hallmark of active mRNA transcription elongation, is largely absent in dormant stem cells from multiple lineages. Using the small intestinal crypt as a model, OSCAR reveals in real time the dynamics of dormancy induction and cellular differentiation in vitro, and allows the identification and isolation of several populations of transcriptionally diverse OSCARhigh and OSCARlow intestinal epithelial cell states in vivo. In particular, this reporter is able to identify a dormant OSCARhigh cell population in the small intestine. OSCAR therefore provides a tool for a better understanding of dormant stem cell biology.

T7 DNA Polymerase with fluorescent unnatural amino acid

Project description:A T7 DNA polymerase variant with the fluorescent unnatural amino acid (7-hydroxycoumarin-4-yl) ethylglycine (7-HCou) incorporated at position 514 was expressed in E. coli and purified. The protein was then characterized by mass spec, pre-steady state kinetic experiments, and fluorescence measurements.

mCherry contains a fluorescent protein isoform that interferes with its reporter function

Project description:Fluorescent proteins are essential reporters in cell biology and molecular biology. Here, we reveal that red-fluorescent proteins possess an alternative translation initiation site that produces a short functional protein isoform. The short isoform creates significant background fluorescence that biases the outcome of expression studies. Our investigation identifies the short protein isoform, traces its origin, and determines the extent of the issue within the family of red fluorescent protein. Our analysis shows that the short isoform defect of the red fluorescent protein family may affect the interpretation of many published studies. Finally, we provide a re-engineered mCherry variant that lacks background expression as an improved tool for imaging and protein expression studies.

A stable Netrin-1 fluorescent reporter chicken reveals cell-specific molecular signatures during optic fissure closure.

Project description:Coloboma is a developmental eye disorder characterised by failure of epithelial fusion during optic fissure closure (OFC). The incomplete identification of genes and molecular pathways that directly regulate fusion restricts current understanding of OFC mechanisms and coloboma causation. The recent identification of pioneer cells at the edges of the fissure margins provides an opportunity to molecularly characterise OFC. Here we describe the generation of a pioneer cell reporter chicken line (NTN1-T2A-eGFP) by targeting green fluorescent protein into the Netrin-1 locus using CRISPR/Cas9 methodology. Our strategy gave 100% transmission of heterozygous (NTN1T2A-eGFP/+) embryos in which GFP localisation faithfully replicated endogenous NTN1 expression. Furthermore, all NTN1T2A-eGFP/+ embryos and hatched birds were phenotypically normal. We then optimised the isolation of GFP expressing cells from embryonic eyes using spectral fluorescence cell-sorting and performed transcriptomic profiling that revealed multiple new pioneer cell markers. Our approach implicated several novel pathways, including HGF/MET signalling, that plausibly mediate fusion in OFC. This work is the first to characterise pioneer cells directly at the molecular level and provides a new chicken reporter line with broad experimental utility.
