Project description:We performed shRNA-mediated knockdown of PRMT5 in LNCaP cells via dox-inducible expression system. We sought to compare transcriptome with- and without PRMT5 knockdown across three biological replicates

Project description:VCaP cells expressing either NTC shRNA or PRMT5 shRNA 1 or shRNA 2 were treated with 100ng/ml doxycycline for 5 days This experiment is designed to see which genes and pathways are modulated by PRMT5 knockdown in VCaP cells VCaP cells were treated with 100ng/ml doxyxycline for 3 days.
Project description:PRMT5 is the major type II protein arginine methyltransferase catalyzing the symmetric dimethylation of arginine. Recent reports have indicated that PRMT5 is overexpressed in multiple cancer types, including prostate. However, the exact contribution of PRMT5 to prostate tumorigenesis is unknown. To explore the functional role of PRMT5 in prostate cancer (PCa), we knocked down PRMT5 by lentiviral shRNAs in both AR-dependent LNCaP cells and AR-independent PC3 cells. Our data suggests that PRMT5 regulates PCa cell biology. To further identify PRMT5-regulated genes in PCa, we performed paired-end RNA-seq analysis in PC3 and LNCaP cells with or without PRMT5-knockdown.

Project description:We report the pro-leukemic activities of PRMT5 in AML partly via modulating the transcription of key genes. The goal of this experiment is to confirm the changes observed in expression of genes targeted by PRMT5 activities. RNA Deep sequencing was employed to validate and reproduce the changes measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRTâPCR) techniques. Total RNA samples from MV4-11 cell line (FLT3-ITD AML) following PRMT5 knockdown using specific short hairpin RNA (shRNA) was used to compare gene expression pattern between PRMT5/Knockdown and control (control: MV4-11 cells transduced with scramble control).
