Here, RNA-seq analysis of bone marrow from gastric cancer patients was performed to identify prognostic markers for gastric cancer. Experimental Design: Bone marrow samples from eight gastric cancer patients (stages I and IV: n ¼ 4 each) were used for RNA-seq analysis. Results were validated through quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis of HIST1H3D expression in 175 bone marrow, 92 peripheral blood, and 115 primary tumor samples from gastric cancer patients. miR-760 expression was assayed using qRT-PCR in 105 bone marrow and 96 primary tumor samples. Luciferase reporter assays were performed to confirm whether histone mRNAs were direct targets of miR-760. miR-760 expression was also evaluated in noncancerous cells from gastric cancer patients. Results: RNA-seq analysis of bone marrow samples from gastric cancer patients revealed higher expression of multiple histone mRNAs in stage IV patients. HIST1H3D expression in the bone marrow, peripheral blood, and primary tumor of stage IV patients was higher than that in stage I patients (P ¼ 0.0284, 0.0243, and 0.0006, respectively). In contrast, miR-760 was downregulated in the bone marrow and primary tumor of stage IV patients compared with stage I patients (P ¼ 0.0094 and 0.0018, respectively). Histone mRNA and miR-760 interacted directly. Furthermore, miR-760 was downregulated in noncancerous mucosa in stage IV gastric cancer patients. Conclusion: Histone mRNA was upregulated, whereas miR-760 was downregulated in the bone marrow and primary tumor of advanced gastric cancer patients, suggesting that the histone mRNA/miR-760 axis had a crucial role in the development of gastric cancer.

In addition to many shared regulators, we found that tumor and normal cells are differentially sensitive to loss of the histone genes transcriptional regulator CASP8AP2. In cancer cells, loss of CASP8AP2 leads to a failure to synthesize sufficient amount of histones in the S-phase of the cell cycle, resulting in slowing of individual replication forks. Despite this, DNA replication fails to arrest, and tumor cells progress in an elongated S-phase that lasts several days, finally resulting in death of most of the affected cells.

    Characterizing Novel Interactions of Transcriptional Repressor Proteins BCL6 & BCL6B by Geoffrey Graham Lundell-Smith A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Biochemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Geoffrey Lundell-Smith, 2017 Characterizing Novel Interactions of Transcriptional Repression Proteins BCL6 and BCL6B Geoffrey Graham Lundell-Smith Masters of Science Department of Biochemistry University of Toronto 2016 Abstract B-cell Lymphoma 6 (BCL6) and its close homolog BCL6B encode proteins that are members of the BTB-Zinc Finger family of transcription factors. BCL6 plays an important role in regulating the differentiation and proliferation of B-cells during the adaptive immune response, and is also involved in T cell development and inflammation. BCL6 acts by repressing genes involved in DNA damage response during the affinity maturation of immunoglobulins, and the mis- expression of BCL6 can lead to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Although BCL6B shares high sequence similarity with BCL6, the functions of BCL6B are not well-characterized. I used BioID, an in vivo proximity-dependent labeling method, to identify novel BCL6 and BCL6B protein interactors and validated a number of these interactions with co-purification experiments. I also examined the evolutionary relationship between BCL6 and BCL6B and identified conserved residues in an important interaction interface that mediates corepressor binding and gene repression. ii Acknowledgments Thank you to my supervisor, Gil Privé for his mentorship, guidance, and advice, and for giving me the opportunity to work in his lab.

  • A Yeast Phenomic Model for the Influence of Warburg Metabolism on Genetic Buffering of Doxorubicin Sean M
    Santos and Hartman Cancer & Metabolism (2019) 7:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40170-019-0201-3 RESEARCH Open Access A yeast phenomic model for the influence of Warburg metabolism on genetic buffering of doxorubicin Sean M. Santos and John L. Hartman IV* Abstract Background: The influence of the Warburg phenomenon on chemotherapy response is unknown. Saccharomyces cerevisiae mimics the Warburg effect, repressing respiration in the presence of adequate glucose. Yeast phenomic experiments were conducted to assess potential influences of Warburg metabolism on gene-drug interaction underlying the cellular response to doxorubicin. Homologous genes from yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were analyzed to infer evolutionary conservation of gene-drug interaction and predict therapeutic relevance. Methods: Cell proliferation phenotypes (CPPs) of the yeast gene knockout/knockdown library were measured by quantitative high-throughput cell array phenotyping (Q-HTCP), treating with escalating doxorubicin concentrations under conditions of respiratory or glycolytic metabolism. Doxorubicin-gene interaction was quantified by departure of CPPs observed for the doxorubicin-treated mutant strain from that expected based on an interaction model. Recursive expectation-maximization clustering (REMc) and Gene Ontology (GO)-based analyses of interactions identified functional biological modules that differentially buffer or promote doxorubicin cytotoxicity with respect to Warburg metabolism. Yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were integrated to predict differential gene expression causally influencing doxorubicin anti-tumor efficacy. Results: Yeast compromised for genes functioning in chromatin organization, and several other cellular processes are more resistant to doxorubicin under glycolytic conditions. Thus, the Warburg transition appears to alleviate requirements for cellular functions that buffer doxorubicin cytotoxicity in a respiratory context.

The RD-histone mRNAs are the only known cellular mRNAs that are not polyadenylated. Instead, the mature transcripts end in a conserved stem– loop (SL) structure. This SL structure interacts with the stem–loop binding protein (SLBP), which is involved in all aspects of RD- histone mRNA metabolism. We used several genomic methods, including high-throughput sequencing of cross-linked immunoprecipitate (HITS-CLIP) to analyze the RNA-binding landscape of SLBP. SLBP was not bound to any RNAs other than histone mRNAs. We performed bioinformatic analyses of the HITS-CLIP data that included (i) clustering genes by sequencing read coverage using CVCA, (ii) mapping the bound RNA fragment termini, and (iii) mapping cross-linking induced mutation sites (CIMS) using CLIP-PyL software. These analyses allowed us to identify specific sites of molecular contact between SLBP and its RD-histone mRNA ligands. We performed in vitro crosslinking assays to refine the CIMS mapping and found that uracils one and three in the loop of the histone mRNA SL preferentially crosslink to SLBP, whereas uracil two in the loop preferentially crosslinks to a separate component, likely the 3′hExo.

By using bioinformatics, it is possible to take advantage of ‘omics’ data to gain a systems level molecular perspective to achieve insight into possible solutions. One possible solution is understanding and expanding the use of alternative splicing (AS) of mRNA precursors. Typically, genes are considered the focal point as the main players in the molecular world. However, due to recent ‘omics’ analysis across the past decade, AS has been demonstrated to be the main player in causing protein diversity. This is possible as AS rearranges the key components of a gene (exon, intron, and untranslated regions) to generate diverse functionally unique proteins and regulatory RNAs.
