Perception of fight outcome is needed to activate socially driven changes in brain transcriptome
  • organism-icon Danio rerio
  • sample-icon 12 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)

Description

Group living animals must be able to express different behavior profiles depending on their social status. This implies that the same genotype may translate into different behavioral phenotypes through socially driven differential gene expression. Here we show for the first time that what triggers the switch between status-specific neurogenomic states is not the objective structure of the social interaction but rather the subjects perception of its outcome. For this purpose we had male zebrafish fight either a real opponent or their own image on a mirror. Massive changes in the brain transcriptome were observed in real opponent fighters, which experience either a victory or a defeat. In contrast, mirror fighters, which had no information on fight outcome despite expressing aggressive behavior, failed to activate a neurogenomic response. These results indicate that, even in cognitively simple organisms such as zebrafish, neurogenomic responses underlying changes in social status rely on cognitive appraisal.

Transcription profiling by array of Saccharomyces cerevisiae overexpressing Gis1 after treatment with doxycycline
  • organism-icon Saccharomyces cerevisiae
  • sample-icon 10 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Yeast Genome S98 Array (ygs98)

Description

The change of genome-wide transcription profiles as a result of Gis1 overexpression is monitored by comparing the transcriptomes isolated from cells where Gis1 overexpression is switched on or off. GIS1 was cloned into pCM190 vector under the control of the tetO7 promoter. The promoter is switched on when there is no doxycycline but off with doxycycline (20ug/ml). Cells were grown in medium with doxycycline, harvested, washes twice in sterile water, resuspended in the same medium with doxycycline (Dox+) or without doxycycline (dox-) and grown for additional 6 hours. Samples were taken for each condition at 3 and 6 hours. Time 0 sample was taken before resuspension.

Publication Title

The transcription activity of Gis1 is negatively modulated by proteasome-mediated limited proteolysis.

Cell responses to dysregulated VZV-induced cell-cell fusion
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 26 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2000

Description

The highly conserved herpesvirus glycoprotein complex, gB/gH-gL, mediates membrane fusion during virion entry and cell-cell fusion. Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) characteristically forms multi-nucleated cells, or syncytia, during the infection of human tissues but little is known about this process. The cytoplasmic domain of VZV gB (gBcyt) has been implicated in cell-cell fusion regulation because a gB[Y881F] substitution causes hyperfusion. The gBcyt regulation is necessary for VZV pathogenesis as the hyperfusogenic mutant gB[Y881F] is severely attenuated in human skin xenografts. In this study, gBcyt regulated fusion was investigated by comparing melanoma cells infected with wild type-like VZV or hyperfusogenic mutants. The gB[Y881F] mutant exhibited dramatically accelerated syncytia formation in melanoma cells caused by fusion of infected cells with many uninfected cells, increased cytoskeleton reorganization and rapid displacement of nuclei to dense central structures when compared to pOka using live cell confocal microscopy. VZV and human transcriptomes were concurrently investigated using RNA-seq to identify viral and cellular responses induced when the gBcyt regulation was disrupted by the gB[Y881F] substitution. The expression of four vital VZV genes, ORF61 and glycoproteins, gC, gE and gI, was significantly reduced at 36 hours post infection for the hyperfusogenic mutants. Importantly, hierarchical clustering demonstrated an association of differential gene expression with dysregulated gBcyt-mediated fusion. A subset of Ras GTPase genes linked to membrane remodeling were upregulated in cells infected with the hyperfusogenic mutants. These data implicate the gBcyt in the regulation gB fusion function that, if unmodulated, triggers cellular processes leading to hyperfusion that attenuates VZV infection. Overall design: Biological duplicates from 3 time points (12, 24 and 36 hours post infection) of uninfected MeWo cells or MeWo cells infected with varicella-zoster virus strain pOka or mutants gB[Y881F], gB[Y920F] or gB[Y881/920F]

Temporal transcriptomics suggest that twin-peaking genes reset the clock
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 46 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2000

Description

The mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) drives daily rhythmic behavior and physiology, yet a detailed understanding of its coordinated transcriptional programmes is lacking. To reveal the true nature of circadian variation in the mammalian SCN transcriptome we combined laser-capture microdissection (LCM) and RNA-Seq over a 24-hour light / dark cycle. We show that 7-times more genes exhibited a classic sinusoidal expression signature than previously observed in the SCN. Another group of 766 genes unexpectedly peaked twice, near both the start and end of the dark phase; this twin-peaking group is significantly enriched for synaptic transmission genes that are crucial for light-induced phase-shifting of the circadian clock. 342 intergenic non-coding RNAs, together with novel exons of annotated protein-coding genes, including Cry1, also show specific circadian expression variation. Overall, our data provide an important chronobiological resource (www.wgpembroke.com/shiny/SCNseq/) and allow us to propose that transcriptional timing in the SCN is gating clock resetting mechanisms. Overall design: Pooled dissected tissue of the suprachiasmatic nucleus from five adult male mice provided one of three replicates for each of six timepoints over a 12:12 light/dark (LD) cycle (ZT2, 6, 10, 14, 18 and 22). Each biological replicate was sequenced over 3 seperate lanes using Illumina HiSeq.

Montelukast counteracts the influenza virus-induced block in unfolded protein stress response and reduces virus multiplication
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 8 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIlluminaHiSeq2000

Description

Influenza A viruses generate annual epidemics and occasional pandemics of respiratory disease with important consequences for human health and economy. Therefore, a large effort has been devoted to the development of new anti-influenza drugs directed to viral targets, as well as to the identification of cellular targets amenable for anti-influenza therapy. Here we describe a new approach to identify such potential cellular targets by screening collections of drugs approved for human use. We reasoned that this would most probably ensure addressing a cellular target and, if successful, the compound would have a well known pharmacological profile. In addition, we reasoned that a screening using a GFP-based recombinant replicon system would address virus trancription/replication and/or gene expression, and hence address a stage in virus infection more useful for inhibition. By using such strategy we identified Montelukast as an inhibitor of virus gene expression, which reduced virus multiplication in virus-infected cells but did not alter virus RNA synthesis in vitro or viral RNA accumulation in vivo. By deep sequencing of RNA isolated from mock- and virus-infected human cells, treated or not with Montelukast, we identified the PERK-mediated unfolded protein response as the pathway responsible for Montelukast action. Accordingly, PERK phosphorylation was inhibited in infected cells but stimulated in Montelukast-treated cells. These results suggest the PERK-mediated unfolded protein response as a potential cellular target to modulate influenza virus infection. Overall design: Comparison of gene expression measured by deep sequencing (single-ends, 50nt, RNA-seq) of "Infected", "Not infected", "Infected+Montelukast" and "Not infect+Montelukast" in human A549 cells. Infected means "Infected with influenza virus".

  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)

Description

Heat stress is one of the most prominent and deleterious environmental threads affecting plant growth and development. Upon high temperatures, plants launch specialized gene expression programs that promote stress protection and survival. These programs involve global and specific changes at the transcriptional and translational levels. However the coordination of these processes and their specific role in the establishment of the heat stress response is not fully elucidated.

Description

Innate immune response is the first line of antiviral defense resulting, in most cases, in pathogen clearance with minimal clinical consequences. Viruses have developed diverse strategies to evade innate immune response and to ensure their survival. Using transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) as a model, we previously reported that accessory gene 7 counteracts host antiviral response by its association with the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1c). A transcriptomic analysis was performed to further investigate the effect of gene 7 absence on the host cell.

Transcription profiling of yeast grown in gastric or duodenal medium to identify promoters that could be used to down-regulate genes used in the release of therapeutic proteins
  • organism-icon Saccharomyces cerevisiae
  • sample-icon 6 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Yeast Genome 2.0 Array (yeast2)

Description

The use of yeast as a delivery system is an attractive option for the oral administration of therapeutic agents. We recently developed mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae capable of lysis upon conditional down-regulation of the expression of the cell wall genes PKC1 and SRB1. The lysis mechanism of the mutant is based on the use of the MET3 promoter, which, upon addition of methionine and cysteine, blocks transcription of SRB1 and PKC1. This strain has the potential to be an integral part of an oral yeast delivery system, in which there is lysis of yeasts in the human gut, followed by release of recombinant proteins for therapeutic use. In order to provide proof-of-principle, the system was evaluated testing the cells viability and lysis performance under conditions, which simulate those found in the human stomach and the duodenum. Upon incubation of yeast cells in these conditions, lysis could be induced and was accompanied by release of GFP reporter protein into the medium. However, the conditional lysis mechanism based on the MET3 promoter is not applicable in vivo. Therefore, alternative promoters suitable for in-vivo down-regulation of SRB1 and PKC1 were identified by a microarray experiments. The transcripts of genes ANB1, TIR1, and MF(ALPHA)2 were significantly reduced upon exposure of the yeast cells to conditions of the two gut compartments. Their promoters could be used to down-regulate SRB1/VIG9 and PKC1 in vivo to achieve lysis of the yeast in the gut to release cargo therapeutic proteins.

hCLE/RTRAF-HSPC117-DDX1-FAM98B: A new cap-binding complex that activates mRNA translation
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 4 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2000

Description

hCLE/C14orf166/RTRAF, DDX1 and HSPC117 are components of cytoplasmic mRNA-transporting granules kinesin-associated in dendrites. They have also been found in cytoplasmic ribosome-containing RNA granules that transport specific mRNAs halted for translation until specific neuronal signals renders them accessible to the translation machinery. hCLE associates to DDX1, HSPC117 and FAM98B in HEK293T cells and all four proteins bind to cap analog-containing resins. Competition and elution experiments indicate that binding of hCLE complex to cap resins is independent of eIF4E; the cap-binding factor needed for translation. Purified hCLE free of its associated proteins binds cap with low affinity suggesting that its interacting proteins modulate its cap association. hCLE silencing reduces hCLE accumulation and that of its interacting proteins and decreases mRNA translation. hCLE-associated RNAs have been isolated and sequenced; RNAs involved in mRNA translation are specifically associated. The data suggest a positive role of hCLE complex modulating mRNA translation. Overall design: Standard RNA-seq protocol was applied for comparing two sample types (HEK293T cells transfected with hCLE-TAP plasmid or empty TAP) with two biological replicates each. More than 20 million single-end, strand-specific 50 nt reads were generated for each sample.
