Petri,** and Kathleen E. Sullivan* The IL1A and IL1B genes lie in close proximity on chromosome 2 near the gene for their natural inhibitor, IL1RN. Despite diverse functions, they are all three inducible through TLR4 signaling but with distinct kinetics. This study analyzed transcriptional induction kinetics, chromosome looping, and enhancer RNA production to understand the distinct regulation of these three genes in human cells. IL1A, IL1B, and IL1RN were rapidly induced after stimulation with LPS; however, IL1B mRNA production was less inhibitable by iBET151, suggesting it does not use pause-release regulation. Surprisingly, chromatin looping contacts between Downloaded from IL1A and IL1B were highly intermingled, although those of IL1RN were distinct, and we focused on comparing IL1A and IL1B transcriptional pathways. Our studies demonstrated that enhancer RNAs were produced from a subset of the regulatory regions, that they were critical for production of the mRNAs, and that they bound a diverse array of RNA binding proteins, including p300 but not CBP. We, furthermore, demonstrated that recruitment of p300 was dependent on MAPKs. Integrator is another RNA binding protein recruited to the promoters and enhancers, and its recruitment was more dependent on NF-kB than MAPKs. We found that integrator and NELF, an RNA polymerase II pausing protein, were associated with RNA in a manner that facilitated http://www.jimmunol.org/ interaction. We conclude that IL1A and IL1B share many regulatory contacts, signaling pathways, and interactions with enhancer RNAs. A complex of protein interactions with enhancer RNAs emphasize the role of enhancer RNAs and the overall structural aspects of transcriptional regulation.

Lei 1,2 1234567890():,; Genome organization is driven by forces affecting transcriptional state, but the relationship between transcription and genome architecture remains unclear. Here, we identified the Drosophila transcription factor Motif 1 Binding Protein (M1BP) in physical association with the gypsy chromatin insulator core complex, including the universal insulator protein CP190. M1BP is required for enhancer-blocking and barrier activities of the gypsy insulator as well as its proper nuclear localization. Genome-wide, M1BP specifically colocalizes with CP190 at Motif 1-containing promoters, which are enriched at topologically associating domain (TAD) borders. M1BP facilitates CP190 chromatin binding at many shared sites and vice versa. Both factors promote Motif 1-dependent gene expression and transcription near TAD borders genome-wide. Finally, loss of M1BP reduces chromatin accessibility and increases both inter- and intra-TAD local genome compaction. Our results reveal physical and functional inter- action between CP190 and M1BP to activate transcription at TAD borders and mediate chromatin insulator-dependent genome organization. 1 Nuclear Organization and Gene Expression Section, Bethesda, MD, USA. 2 Laboratory of Biochemistry and Genetics, Bethesda, MD, USA. 3 Laboratory of Cellular and Developmental Biology, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA. ✉ 4These authors contributed equally: Shue Chen, Leah F.

  • From Genome to Phenome

This meeting is organized together with the VKGL (Vereniging Klinisch Genetische Laboratoriumdiagnostiek), the VKGN (Vereniging Klinische Genetica Nederland) and the NACGG (Nederlandse Associatie voor Community Genetics en Public Health Genomics ) We live in an exciting time. Developments in genetics are going very fast. New technologies have advanced research and these findings are rapidly translated to diagnostics. Even non-invasive prenatal tests are now possible. Single gene tests with long turn-around times are being replaced by rapid analysis of gene panels and the genetic basis of multifactorial diseases is being resolved. This has great impact on the way we perform our research, diagnostics and counseling. Furthermore, we seriously have to reckon with the impact on society as illustrated by the recent publicity on the introduction of non-invasive prenatal testing. The scope of our profession is changing, interaction between the different professionals in genetics is increasingly important. This meeting is the perfect place to discuss the new developments and stimulate discussion of the possibilities and their implications. Thursday afternoon’s forum discussion on prenatal testing is a good example. This year we focus on the translation of the genetic findings to the patient. How do we interpret the sequence variants detected by the new technologies, which functional assays are available and how much functional evidence do we need before we start offering new tests? The scientific program covers basic research, disease models and implications for diagnostics.

The subsequent realization that the intervening regions are removed from pre-mRNA transcripts via the activity of a common set of small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), which assemble together with associated proteins into a spliceosome, was equally surprising. How do cells orchestrate the assembly of this molecular machine? And how does the spliceosome accurately recognize exons and introns to carry out the splicing reaction? Insights into these questions have been gained by studying the life cycle of spliceosomal snRNAs from their transcription, nuclear export and reimport, all the way through to their dynamic assembly into the spliceosome. This assembly process can also affect the regulation of alternative splicing and has implications for human disease.

  • Pan-Cancer Driver Copy Number Alterations Identified By
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Pan‑cancer driver copy number alterations identifed by joint expression/CNA data analysis Gaojianyong Wang1 & Dimitris Anastassiou1,2* Analysis of large gene expression datasets from biopsies of cancer patients can identify co-expression signatures representing particular biomolecular events in cancer. Some of these signatures involve genomically co-localized genes resulting from the presence of copy number alterations (CNAs), for which analysis of the expression of the underlying genes provides valuable information about their combined role as oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. Here we focus on the discovery and interpretation of such signatures that are present in multiple cancer types due to driver amplifcations and deletions in particular regions of the genome after doing a comprehensive analysis combining both gene expression and CNA data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Gene co-expression signatures in cancer ofen involve genomically co-localized genes resulting from the presence of various biological mechanisms that include, but are not limited to, the copy number alterations (CNAs) of malignant cells1 and the immune response against cancer cells2. For example, ERBB2, GRB7, MIEN1 are among the genes co-expressed in breast cancer due to the HER2 amplicon3, while HLA-DPA1, HLA-DPB1, HLA-DRA are among the genes co-expressed in the MHC Class II immune cluster4. Any co-expression signatures that are consistently present in many diferent cancer types are referred to as "pan-cancer" signatures, representing uni- versal (tissue-independent) biomolecular events in cancer5–8. Ref.8 studied co-expressed genes in immune cells. Tere are several techniques for identifying co-expression signatures involving genomically co-localized genes 9–11.

A prime example is the transcript isoform switch that leads to the read-through expression of the long License 4.0 (CC BY-NC). non-coding RNA NEAT1_2, at the expense of the shorter polyadenylated transcript NEAT1_1. NEAT1_2 is required for assembly of paraspeckles (PS), nuclear bodies that protect cancer cells from oncogene-induced replication stress and chemotherapy. Searching for proteins that modulate this event, we identified factors involved in the 3′ end processing of polyadenylated RNA and components of the Integrator complex. Perturbation experiments estab- lished that, by promoting the cleavage of NEAT1_2, Integrator forces NEAT1_2 to NEAT1_1 isoform switching and, thereby, restrains PS assembly. Consistently, low levels of Integrator subunits correlated with poorer prognosis of cancer patients exposed to chemotherapeutics. Our study establishes that Integrator regulates PS biogenesis and a link between Integrator, cancer biology, and chemosensitivity, which may be exploited therapeutically.

Many of these terminate early 29 and are then rapidly degraded, but how their transcription is restricted is poorly understood. 30 In a screen for protein-coding gene termination factors, we identified ZC3H4.
