Localized Expression of a Myogenic Regulatory Gene, Qmfl, in the Somlte Dermatome of Avian Embryos
Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 3, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Localized expression of a myogenic regulatory gene, qmfl, in the somlte dermatome of avian embryos Fabienne Charles de la Brousse and Charles P. Emerson, Jr. 1 Department of Biology, Gilmer Hall, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 USA qmfl is a quail myogenic regulatory gene that is transcribed in skeletal myoblasts and differentiated muscle and shows sequence homology to MyoD1 and MyfS. We used the qmfl transcript as an in situ hybridization marker for determined myogenic cells to study myogenic lineages in developing embryos. We present evidence for the temporal and spatial regulation of qmfl mRNA expression and slow cardiac troponin C (TnC), fast skeletal troponin T (TnT), and a-cardiac actin contractile protein mRNA expression in the somite myotome and limb buds. Our results show that qmfl is a marker for myogenic lineages during both somite formation and limb development and that qmfl mRNAs, but not contractile protein mRNAs, localize in dorsal medial lip (DML) cells of the somite dermatome. We propose that the DML is a site of myogenic lineage determination.

Supplemental Information to Mammadova-Bach Et Al., “Laminin Α1 Orchestrates VEGFA Functions in the Ecosystem of Colorectal Carcinogenesis”
Supplemental information to Mammadova-Bach et al., “Laminin α1 orchestrates VEGFA functions in the ecosystem of colorectal carcinogenesis” Supplemental material and methods Cloning of the villin-LMα1 vector The plasmid pBS-villin-promoter containing the 3.5 Kb of the murine villin promoter, the first non coding exon, 5.5 kb of the first intron and 15 nucleotides of the second villin exon, was generated by S. Robine (Institut Curie, Paris, France). The EcoRI site in the multi cloning site was destroyed by fill in ligation with T4 polymerase according to the manufacturer`s instructions (New England Biolabs, Ozyme, Saint Quentin en Yvelines, France). Site directed mutagenesis (GeneEditor in vitro Site-Directed Mutagenesis system, Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France) was then used to introduce a BsiWI site before the start codon of the villin coding sequence using the 5’ phosphorylated primer: 5’CCTTCTCCTCTAGGCTCGCGTACGATGACGTCGGACTTGCGG3’. A double strand annealed oligonucleotide, 5’GGCCGGACGCGTGAATTCGTCGACGC3’ and 5’GGCCGCGTCGACGAATTCACGC GTCC3’ containing restriction site for MluI, EcoRI and SalI were inserted in the NotI site (present in the multi cloning site), generating the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. The SV40 polyA region of the pEGFP plasmid (Clontech, Ozyme, Saint Quentin Yvelines, France) was amplified by PCR using primers 5’GGCGCCTCTAGATCATAATCAGCCATA3’ and 5’GGCGCCCTTAAGATACATTGATGAGTT3’ before subcloning into the pGEMTeasy vector (Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France). After EcoRI digestion, the SV40 polyA fragment was purified with the NucleoSpin Extract II kit (Machery-Nagel, Hoerdt, France) and then subcloned into the EcoRI site of the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. Site directed mutagenesis was used to introduce a BsiWI site (5’ phosphorylated AGCGCAGGGAGCGGCGGCCGTACGATGCGCGGCAGCGGCACG3’) before the initiation codon and a MluI site (5’ phosphorylated 1 CCCGGGCCTGAGCCCTAAACGCGTGCCAGCCTCTGCCCTTGG3’) after the stop codon in the full length cDNA coding for the mouse LMα1 in the pCIS vector (kindly provided by P.

Studies of the mouse homolog, I-mf, show that it interferes with myogenic factor function by masking nuclear localization signals and preventing DNA binding. Knockout mouse studies show defects in the formation of vertebrae and ribs that also involve cartilage formation in these structures. MDFI an also interfere with the DNA-binding activity of Myod family members and plays an important role in trophoblast and chondrogenic differentiation.

Supporting Information
Supporting Information Pouryahya et al. SI Text Table S1 presents genes with the highest absolute value of Ricci curvature. We expect these genes to have signiﬁcant contribution to the network’s robustness. Notably, the top two genes are TP53 (tumor protein 53) and YWHAG gene. TP53, also known as p53, it is a well known tumor suppressor gene known as the "guardian of the genome“ given the essential role it plays in genetic stability and prevention of cancer formation (1, 2). Mutations in this gene play a role in all stages of malignant transformation including tumor initiation, promotion, aggressiveness, and metastasis (3). Mutations of this gene are present in more than 50% of human cancers, making it the most common genetic event in human cancer (4, 5). Namely, p53 mutations play roles in leukemia, breast cancer, CNS cancers, and lung cancers, among many others (6–9). The YWHAG gene encodes the 14-3-3 protein gamma, a member of the 14-3-3 family proteins which are involved in many biological processes including signal transduction regulation, cell cycle pro- gression, apoptosis, cell adhesion and migration (10, 11). Notably, increased expression of 14-3-3 family proteins, including protein gamma, have been observed in a number of human cancers including lung and colorectal cancers, among others, suggesting a potential role as tumor oncogenes (12, 13). Furthermore, there is evidence that loss Fig. S1. The histogram of scalar Ricci curvature of 8240 genes. Most of the genes have negative scalar Ricci curvature (75%). TP53 and YWHAG have notably low of p53 function may result in upregulation of 14-3-3γ in lung cancer Ricci curvatures.

Additionally, morphology can be used to identify more fine-grained, molecular developments within a cancer cell, such as transcriptomic changes and signaling pathway activity. Delineating the interface be- tween morphology and signaling is important to understand the mechanical cues that a cell processes in order to undergo epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and consequently metastasize. However, the exact regulatory systems that define these changes remain poorly characterised. In this study, we em- ploy a network-systems approach to integrate imaging data and RNA-seq expression data. Our workflow allows the discovery of unbiased and context-specific gene expression signatures and cell signaling sub- networks relevant to the regulation of cell shape, rather than focusing on the identification of previously known, but not always representative, pathways.

Oxidized Phospholipids Regulate Amino Acid Metabolism Through MTHFD2 to Facilitate Nucleotide Release in Endothelial Cells
ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04602-0 OPEN Oxidized phospholipids regulate amino acid metabolism through MTHFD2 to facilitate nucleotide release in endothelial cells Juliane Hitzel1,2, Eunjee Lee3,4, Yi Zhang 3,5,Soﬁa Iris Bibli2,6, Xiaogang Li7, Sven Zukunft 2,6, Beatrice Pﬂüger1,2, Jiong Hu2,6, Christoph Schürmann1,2, Andrea Estefania Vasconez1,2, James A.

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.
