Core Transcriptional Regulatory Circuitries in Cancer

Phillip Koeffler Received: 14 June 2020 / Revised: 30 August 2020 / Accepted: 4 September 2020 / Published online: 17 September 2020 © The Author(s) 2020. This article is published with open access Abstract Transcription factors (TFs) coordinate the on-and-off states of gene expression typically in a combinatorial fashion. Studies from embryonic stem cells and other cell types have revealed that a clique of self-regulated core TFs control cell identity and cell state. These core TFs form interconnected feed-forward transcriptional loops to establish and reinforce the cell-type- specific gene-expression program; the ensemble of core TFs and their regulatory loops constitutes core transcriptional regulatory circuitry (CRC). Here, we summarize recent progress in computational reconstitution and biologic exploration of CRCs across various human malignancies, and consolidate the strategy and methodology for CRC discovery. We also discuss the genetic basis and therapeutic vulnerability of CRC, and highlight new frontiers and future efforts for the study of CRC in cancer. Knowledge of CRC in cancer is fundamental to understanding cancer-specific transcriptional addiction, and should provide important insight to both pathobiology and therapeutics. 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: Introduction genes.

Localization of Condensin Subunit XCAP-E in Interphase Nucleus, Nucleoid and Nuclear

We shown, that XCAP-E is localizes in granular and in dense fibrillar component of nucleolus and also in small karyoplasmic structures (termed “SMC bodies”). Extraction by 2M NaCl does not influence XCAP-E distribution in nucleolus and “SMC bodies”. DNAse I treatment of interphase cells permeabilized by Triton X-100 or nucleoids resulted in partial decrease of labeling intensity in the nucleus, whereas RNAse A treatment resulted in practically complete loss of labeling of nucleolus and “SMC bodies” labeling. In mitotic cells, however, 2M NaCl extraction results in an intense staining of the chromosome region although the labeling was visible along the whole length of sister chromatids, with a stronger staining in centromore region. The data are discussed in view of a hypothesis about participation of XCAP-E in processing of ribosomal RNA. -

Summary Condensin complexes compact and disentangle chromosomes in preparation for cell division. Commercially available antibodies raised against condensin subunits have been widely used to characterise their cellular interactome. Here we have assessed the specificity of a polyclonal antibody (Bethyl A302- 276A) that is commonly used as a probe for NCAPH2, the kleisin subunit of condensin II, in mammalian cells. We find that, in addition to its intended target, this antibody cross-reacts with one or more components of the SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodelling complexes in an NCAPH2- independent manner. This cross-reactivity with an abundant chromatin- associated factor is likely to affect the interpretation of protein and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments that make use of this antibody probe. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

Condensins, Chromatin Remodeling and Gene Transcription
Chapter 4 Condensins, Chromatin Remodeling and Gene Transcription Laurence O. W. Wilson and Aude M. Fahrer Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/55732 1. Introduction Condensin complexes condense chromosomes during mitosis, turning the diffuse interphase chromosomes into the familiar X-shaped compact chromosomes that segregate during cell division. More recently a second role for condensins has emerged, in the epigenetic regulation of interphase gene transcription. This second fascinating role is very difficult to study since defects in condensin will usually interfere with mitosis and result in cell death. While several excellent reviews of condensin function have recently been published (see [1-3]), in this article we concentrate on the epigenetic functions of condensins and how they can be studied. We also provide the first summary of condensin protein splice forms, a largely overlooked contributor to condensin variation. The DNA within a cell is too large to fit inside if left in its unwound state. In order to accom‐ modate the genetic material, a cell packages this DNA as chromati:, a combination of DNA bound to protein. The DNA is wound around protein complexes known as histones to form nucleosomes, which form a “beads-on-a-string” structure. These nucleosomes can be com‐ pacted further to produce a highly condensed structure that fits inside the nucleus of a cell. The regulation of this structure is vital for cell growth and survival. During mitosis, chromatin must be unwound so that it can be properly replicated and then repackaged into sister chromosomes that must then be segregated into the dividing cells. -

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes.
