Affymetrix Yeast Genome S98 Array (ygs98)
Description
The Rad23/Rad4 protein complex plays a major role in DNA damage recognition during nucleotide excision repair (NER) in yeast. We recently showed that two distinct pathways contribute to efficient NER in yeast. The first operates independently of de novo protein synthesis and requires a nonproteolytic function of the 19S regulatory complex of the 26S proteasome and Rad23. The second pathway requires de novo protein synthesis, and relies on the activity of a newly identified Rad7-containing E3 ubiquitin ligase that ubiquitinates Rad4 in response to UV. Surprisingly, we found that cells deleted of either Rad23 or Rad4 caused reduced Rad4 and Rad23 mRNA levels respectively. We considered the possibility of an unexpected role of Rad23 and Rad4 in regulating the expression of genes involved in the transcriptional response to DNA damage. Gene expression profiling has suggested that Rad23 and Rad4 may function as a complex to affect transcription of a small subset of genes in response to UV damage. To determine how Rad4 and Rad23 contribute to the regulation of these genes, we have examined the occupancy of Rad4/Rad23 in their promoter regions by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), both in the presence and absence of UV damage. Our preliminary ChIP data suggests that the Rad4/Rad23 complex regulates a set of genes in response to UV light. We also proposed that the transcriptional regulatory activity of the Rad4-Rad23 complex required Rad4 ubiquitination. These arrays test this theory using the psocs mutant strain, which is unable to facilitate Rad4 ubiquitination after UV irradiation.

Description
Human ILCs are classically categorized into five subsets; cytotoxic CD127-CD94+ NK cells and non-cytotoxic CD127+CD94-, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s and LTi cells. Here, we identify a novel subset within the CD127+ ILC population, characterized by the expression of the cytotoxic marker CD94. These CD94+ ILCs strongly resemble conventional ILC3s in terms of phenotype, transcriptome and cytokine production, but are highly cytotoxic. IL-15 was unable to induce differentiation of CD94+ ILCs towards mature NK cells. Instead, CD94+ ILCs retained RORγt, CD127 and CD200R expression and produced IL-22 in response to IL-15. Culturing non-cytotoxic CD127+ ILC1s or ILC3s with IL-12 induced upregulation of CD94 and cytotoxic activity, effects that were not observed with IL-15 stimulation. Thus, human helper ILCs can acquire a cytotoxic program without differentiating into NK cells.

Co-treatment with soluble CD74 and MIF induced necroptosis in cardiac myofibroblasts. The underlying mechanism of sCD74/MIF-induced necroptosis are still unkown. We used a microarray to identify pathways regulated by co-treatment with sCD74 and MIF .

Description
Despite widespread use of sunscreens that minimize erythema by blocking ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, incidence rates of melanoma continue to rise. In considering this disparity between intervention and disease prevalence, we investigated the in vivo transcriptome of human skin treated with sunscreen and solar-simulated radiation (ssR). A focal skin area of healthy participants was exposed to ssR at 1 minimal erythema dose (MED), 0.1 MED or 100 J/m2 with or without prior application of sunscreen, or to non-UVB-spectrum of ssR (solar-simulated UVA/visible/infrared radiation: ssA). Skin biopsies were analyzed using expression microarrays.

Transcriptional signatures of full-spectrum and non-UVB-spectrum solar irradiation in human skin.

Description
Transcriptional dysregulation is an early feature of Huntington''s disease (HD). We observed gene-specific changes in H3K4me3 at transcriptionally repressed promoters in R6/2 mouse and human HD brain. Genome-wide analysis showed a novel chromatin signature for this mark. Reducing the levels of the H3K4 demethylase SMCX/Jarid1c in primary neurons reversed down-regulation of key neuronal genes caused by mutant Huntingtin (Htt) expression. Finally, reduction of SMCX/Jarid1c in primary neurons from BACHD mice or the single Jarid1 in a Drosophila HD model was protective. Therefore, targeting this epigenetic signature may be an effective strategy to ameliorate the consequences of HD. Overall design: mRNA-seq in wild type and R6/2 cortex and striatum at 8 and 12 weeks.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
Many flowering plants attract pollinators by offering a reward of floral nectar. Remarkably, the molecular events involved in the development of nectaries, the organs that produce nectar, as well as the synthesis and secretion of nectar itself, are poorly understood. Indeed, to date, no genes have been shown to directly affect the de novo production or quality of floral nectar. To address this gap in knowledge, the ATH1 Affymetrix GeneChip array was used to systematically investigate the Arabidopsis nectary transcriptome to identify genes and pathways potentially involved in nectar production. In this study, we identified a large number of genes differentially expressed between secretory lateral nectaries and non-secretory median nectary tissues, as well as between mature lateral nectaries (post-anthessis) and immature lateral nectary tissue (pre-anthesis).
