Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
The transcriptome of the three atino80 allelic mutants was compared to that of wild-type and 50B Arabidopsis plants (see Fritsch et al. 2004). Since the transcriptomes of 50B and wild-type plants were found to be identical, we compared expression in the mutant with 50B and with wild-type without distinction. Therefore, we had four replicates of the wild type condition (50B line, wild-type) and two replicates for each of the mutant alleles (atino80-1, atino80-2 and atino80-3), all ecotype Columbia. All lines were profiled in duplicate (grown independently at 2-week-intervals).

Description
Transcription factors (TFs) bind specific sequences in promoter-proximal and distal DNA elements in order to regulate gene transcription. RNA is transcribed from both promoter-proximal and distal DNA elements, and some DNA-binding TFs have also been shown to bind RNA. These obsevations led us to postulate that RNA transcribed from regulatory elements contributes to stable TF occupancy at these regulatory elements. We show here that the ubiquitously expressed TF YY1 binds to both proximal and distal regulatory elements and to the RNA species associated with these elements near active genes in embryonic stem cells. Inhibition of transcription from these elements reduces YY1 occupancy. In contrast, tethering of RNA species near YY1 DNA binding sites enhances YY1 occupancy. We propose that RNA acts as trap to maintain certain TFs at active enhancer and promoter-proximal regulatory elements. Thus, transcriptional control generally involves a positive feedback loop, where YY1 and other TFs stimulate local transcription, and newly transcribed nascent RNA reinforces local TF occupancy. This model helps explain why TFs occupy only the small fraction of their consensus motifs in the mammalian genome where transcription is detected.

Description
A remarkable number of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) species have been identified in mammalian cells, but the genomic origins of these molecules in individual cell types is poorly understood. As a prerequisite to studying the transcriptional regulation of lncRNAs, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the genomic origins of lncRNAs expressed in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Overall design: Polyadenylated RNA and total RNA depleted of ribosomal content was used for preparation of two independent sequencing libraries

Description
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread reversible chemical modification of RNAs, implicated in many aspects of RNA metabolism. Little quantitative information exists as to either how many transcript copies of particular genes are m6A modified (“m6A levels”), or the relationship of m6A modification(s) to alternative RNA isoforms. To deconvolute the m6A epitranscriptome, we developed m6A level and isoform-characterization sequencing (m6A-LAIC-seq). We found that cells exhibit a broad range of non-stoichiometric m6A levels with cell type specificity. At the level of isoform characterization, we discovered widespread differences in use of tandem alternative polyadenylation (APA) sites by methylated and nonmethylated transcript isoforms of individual genes. Strikingly, there is a strong bias for methylated transcripts to be coupled with proximal APA sites, resulting in shortened 3’ untranslated regions (3’-UTRs), while nonmethylated transcript isoforms tend to use distal APA sites. m6A-LAIC-seq yields a new perspective on transcriptome complexity and links APA usage to m6A modifications. Overall design: m6A-LAIC-seq of H1-ESC and GM12878 cell lines, each cell line has two replicates

Description
Fumarate hydratase (FH) mutation causes hereditary type 2 papillary renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC, Hereditary Leiomyomatosis and Renal Cell Cancer (MM ID # 605839)). The main effect of FH mutation is fumarate accumulation. The current paradigm posits that the main consequence of fumarate accumulation is HIF-a stabilization. Paradoxically, FH mutation differs from other HIF-a stabilizing mutations, such as VHL and SDH mutations, in its associated tumor types. We identified that fumarate can directly up-regulate antioxidant response element (ARE)-controlled genes. We demonstrated that AKR1B10 is an ARE-controlled gene and is up-regulated upon FH knockdown as well as in FH-null cell lines. AKR1B10 overexpression is also a prominent feature in both hereditary and sporadic PRCC2. This phenotype better explains the similarities between hereditary and sporadic PRCC2.

Description
The rising prevalence of obesity and its associated metabolic abnormalities have become global diseases that carry considerable morbidity and mortality. While there is certainly an important genetic component, extensive human epidemiologic and animal model data suggest an epigenetic component to obesity. Nevertheless, the cellular and molecular underpinnings of these pathways and how they contribute to the development of obesity remain to be elucidated. Suv420h1 and h2 are histone methyltransferases responsible for chromatin compaction and gene repression. Through in vivo, ex-vivo and in vitro studies, we found that Suv420h1 and h2 respond to environmental stimuli and regulate metabolism by downregulating PPAR-?, a master transcriptional regulator of lipid storage and glucose metabolism. Accordingly, mice lacking Suv420h proteins activate PPAR-? target genes in brown adipose tissue to increase mitochondria respiration, improve glucose tolerance and reduce adipose tissue to fight obesity. We conclude that Suv420h proteins are key epigenetic regulator of PPAR-? and the pathways controlling metabolism and weight balance in response to environmental stimuli. Overall design: For experiment 1, total RNA was isolated from males and females control- and Suv420h dKO-derived BAT. For experiment 2, total RNA was isolated from BAT collected from females control and Suv420h dKO mice after both diet regimes (nd = normal diet, hfd = high fat diet).
