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.

  • TRIM28 Is Required by the Mouse KRAB Domain Protein ZFP568 to Control Convergent Extension and Morphogenesis of Extra-Embryonic Tissues Maho Shibata1, Kristin E
    RESEARCH ARTICLE 5333 Development 138, 5333-5343 (2011) doi:10.1242/dev.072546 © 2011. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd TRIM28 is required by the mouse KRAB domain protein ZFP568 to control convergent extension and morphogenesis of extra-embryonic tissues Maho Shibata1, Kristin E. Blauvelt1, Karel F. Liem, Jr2 and María J. García-García1,* SUMMARY TRIM28 is a transcriptional regulator that is essential for embryonic development and is implicated in a variety of human diseases. The roles of TRIM28 in distinct biological processes are thought to depend on its interaction with factors that determine its DNA target specificity. However, functional evidence linking TRIM28 to specific co-factors is scarce. chatwo, a hypomorphic allele of Trim28, causes embryonic lethality and defects in convergent extension and morphogenesis of extra-embryonic tissues. These phenotypes are remarkably similar to those of mutants in the Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) zinc finger protein ZFP568, providing strong genetic evidence that ZFP568 and TRIM28 control morphogenesis through a common molecular mechanism. We determined that chatwo mutations decrease TRIM28 protein stability and repressive activity, disrupting both ZFP568-dependent and ZFP568-independent roles of TRIM28. These results, together with the analysis of embryos bearing a conditional inactivation of Trim28 in embryonic-derived tissues, revealed that TRIM28 is differentially required by ZFP568 and other factors during the early stages of mouse embryogenesis. In addition to uncovering novel roles of TRIM28 in convergent extension and morphogenesis of extra-embryonic tissues, our characterization of chatwo mutants demonstrates that KRAB domain proteins are essential to determine some of the biological functions of TRIM28.

  • Genome-Wide Analysis of Androgen Receptor Binding and Gene Regulation in Two CWR22-Derived Prostate Cancer Cell Lines
    Endocrine-Related Cancer (2010) 17 857–873 Genome-wide analysis of androgen receptor binding and gene regulation in two CWR22-derived prostate cancer cell lines Honglin Chen1, Stephen J Libertini1,4, Michael George1, Satya Dandekar1, Clifford G Tepper 2, Bushra Al-Bataina1, Hsing-Jien Kung2,3, Paramita M Ghosh2,3 and Maria Mudryj1,4 1Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of California Davis, 3147 Tupper Hall, Davis, California 95616, USA 2Division of Basic Sciences, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, Cancer Center and 3Department of Urology, University of California Davis, Sacramento, California 95817, USA 4Veterans Affairs Northern California Health Care System, Mather, California 95655, USA (Correspondence should be addressed to M Mudryj at Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of California, Davis; Email: [email protected]) Abstract Prostate carcinoma (CaP) is a heterogeneous multifocal disease where gene expression and regulation are altered not only with disease progression but also between metastatic lesions. The androgen receptor (AR) regulates the growth of metastatic CaPs; however, sensitivity to androgen ablation is short lived, yielding to emergence of castrate-resistant CaP (CRCaP). CRCaP prostate cancers continue to express the AR, a pivotal prostate regulator, but it is not known whether the AR targets similar or different genes in different castrate-resistant cells. In this study, we investigated AR binding and AR-dependent transcription in two related castrate-resistant cell lines derived from androgen-dependent CWR22-relapsed tumors: CWR22Rv1 (Rv1) and CWR-R1 (R1). Expression microarray analysis revealed that R1 and Rv1 cells had significantly different gene expression profiles individually and in response to androgen.

  • Supplemental Information
    Supplemental information Dissection of the genomic structure of the miR-183/96/182 gene. Previously, we showed that the miR-183/96/182 cluster is an intergenic miRNA cluster, located in a ~60-kb interval between the genes encoding nuclear respiratory factor-1 (Nrf1) and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2H (Ube2h) on mouse chr6qA3.3 (1). To start to uncover the genomic structure of the miR- 183/96/182 gene, we first studied genomic features around miR-183/96/182 in the UCSC genome browser (http://genome.UCSC.edu/), and identified two CpG islands 3.4-6.5 kb 5’ of pre-miR-183, the most 5’ miRNA of the cluster (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1 and Seq. S1). A cDNA clone, AK044220, located at 3.2-4.6 kb 5’ to pre-miR-183, encompasses the second CpG island (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). We hypothesized that this cDNA clone was derived from 5’ exon(s) of the primary transcript of the miR-183/96/182 gene, as CpG islands are often associated with promoters (2). Supporting this hypothesis, multiple expressed sequences detected by gene-trap clones, including clone D016D06 (3, 4), were co-localized with the cDNA clone AK044220 (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). Clone D016D06, deposited by the German GeneTrap Consortium (GGTC) (http://tikus.gsf.de) (3, 4), was derived from insertion of a retroviral construct, rFlpROSAβgeo in 129S2 ES cells (Fig. 1A and C). The rFlpROSAβgeo construct carries a promoterless reporter gene, the β−geo cassette - an in-frame fusion of the β-galactosidase and neomycin resistance (Neor) gene (5), with a splicing acceptor (SA) immediately upstream, and a polyA signal downstream of the β−geo cassette (Fig.

Although the transcriptional response of keratinocytes that receive a Wnt signal is well characterised, little is known about the mechanism by which keratinocytes in proximity to the Wnt- receiving cell are co-opted to undergo a change in cell fate. To address this, we performed single-cell mRNA-Seq on mouse keratinocytes co-cultured with and without the presence of beta-catenin activated neighbouring cells. We identified seven distinct cell states in cultures that had not been exposed to the beta-catenin stimulus and show that the stimulus redistributes wild type subpopulation proportions.

Interestingly, RBP2 was recently shown to be a demethy- cleosomes. However, the full range of Sin3 activities lase specific for di- and trimethylated lysine 4 of histone H3 and targets is not well understood. Here, we have (Christensen et al., 2007; Klose et al., 2007). Thus, the Sin3 investigated genome-wide binding of mouse Sin3 complex provides a versatile platform for chromatin modifying and RBP2 as well as histone modifications and nucle- and remodeling activities. Sin3/Rpd3 corepressor complexes are recruited to promoter osome positioning as a function of myogenic differ- regions via sequence-specific repressors such as Ume6 or entiation. Remarkably, we find that Sin3 complexes Mad in yeast and mammalian cells, respectively, resulting in spread immediately downstream of the transcription localized deacetylation of histones within promoter regions and start site on repressed and transcribed genes during transcriptional silencing (Ayer et al., 1995; Kadosh and Struhl, differentiation.
