Description
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal adult-onset neuromuscular disorder characterized by the selective degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons, progressive muscle wasting and paralysis. To define the full set of alterations in gene expression in skeletal muscle during the course of the disease, we performed high-density oligonucleotide microarray analysis of gene expression in hind limb skeletal muscles of sod1(G86R) mice, one of the existing transgenic models of ALS. To monitor denervation-dependent gene expression, we determined the effects of short-term acute denervation on the muscle transcriptome after sciatic nerve axotomy.

Description
This is a transcriptomics analysis contributing to a bigger project that tries to shed light on the role of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as a risk factor for colon cancer (CC). Here we present a gene expression screening of paired tumor and normal colon mucosa samples in a cohort of 42 CC patients, 23 of them with T2DM. Using gene set enrichment, we identified an unexpected overlap of pathways over-represented in diabetics compared to non-diabetics, both in tumor and normal mucosa, including diabetes-related metabolic and signaling processes. An integration with other -omic studies suggests that in diabetics, the local micro-environment in normal colon mucosa may be a factor driving field cancerization which may promote carcinogenesis. Several of these pathways converged on the tumor initiation axis TEAD/YAP-TAZ. Cell culture studies confirmed that high glucose concentrations upregulate this pathway in non-tumor colon cells. In conclusion, diabetes is associated to deregulation of cancer-related processes in normal colon mucosa adjacent to tissue which has undergone a malignant transformation. These data support the existence of the field of cancerization paradigm in diabetes and set a new framework to study link between diabetes and cancer.

Description
This is a transcriptomics analysis contributing to a bigger project that tries to shed light on the role of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as a risk factor for colon cancer (CC). Here we present a gene expression screening of 7 colon tumor xenograft samples, 2 with diabetic mice and 5 with normal blood glucose levels. For xenograft model details see: Prieto I, et al.

Description
Transcription is a major obstacle for replication fork progression and a cause of genome instability. Such instability increases in mutants with a suboptimal assembly of the nascent messenger ribonucleo-protein particle (mRNP), as THO/TREX and the NPC-associated THSC/TREX-2 complex.

- Affymetrix Yeast Genome 2.0 Array (yeast2)
Description
Gene expression in eukaryotes is an essential process that includes transcription, pre-RNA processing and RNA export. All these steps are coupled and normally, any failure in one step affects the other steps and could cause nuclear mRNA retention. One important player in this interface is the poly(A)-RNA binding protein Nab2, which regulates the poly(A)-tail length of mRNAs protecting their 3-ends from a second round of polyadenylation and facilitating their nucleo-cytoplasmic export. Interestingly, here we show that Nab2 has additional roles in mRNA transcription elongation, tRNA metabolism and rRNA export.

Nab2 functions in the metabolism of RNA driven by polymerases II and III.

Description
We report the differences in mRNA profiles of WT mouse cells in comparison to both THAP1 -/- cells and cells in which a disease causing C54Y mutation was introduced. Overall design: RNA was extracted from wild type, THAP1 KO, and THAP1 C54Y mouse ES cells derived from C57Bl/6 blastocysts, followed by library preparation and sequencing on the illumina platform.

Description
We report a new protein complex with a role in transcription elongation that is formed by Ypr045c (Thp3) and the Csn12 component of the COP9-signalosome. Thp3-Csn12 is recruited to transcribed genes. Their mutations suppress the gene expression defects of mutants of the THO complex involved in mRNP biogenesis and export and show defects in mRNA accumulation. In vivo transcription elongation impairment of thp3 mutants is shown by reduction of RNAPII recruitment throughout an active gene and in transcript run on analysis performed in G-less systems. This new complex establishes a novel link between transcription and mRNA processing.
Publication Title
New suppressors of THO mutations identify Thp3 (Ypr045c)-Csn12 as a protein complex involved in transcription elongation.
