S2 Supplemental Methods Gene Expression Microarray. For m19z, m1928z and m19-musBBz comparison, three million CAR T cells were incubated with 3×105 3T3-mCD19 cells overnight. The next day live CAR T cells were sorted into Trizol (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). RNA was isolated according to manufacturer’s instructions and run on a MOE 430A 2.0 array Mouse Genechip (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) at the Genomics Core Facility. Gene expression analyses and graphic representations were performed with the Partek Genomics Suite Software. RMA normalization was performed and values generated for each probeset for all samples. Differentially expressed genes were detected by ANOVA and probesets of statistical significance were defined by a-fold change > 2 and a FDR £ 0.05. RNA-SEQ. For m19z, m1928z and m19-humBBz comparison, three million CAR T cells were incubated with 1×106 3T3-mCD19 cells for 48 hr. Live CD4+ CAR T cells were sorted into Trizol. RNA was isolated according to manufacturer’s instructions and evaluated for quality. The Genomic Core performed mRNA enrichment and cDNA library preparation using the Illumina Tru-seq stranded mRNA sample prep kit. Final RNA-seq libraries were reviewed for size and quality on the Agilent TapeStation, followed by quantitative PCR-based quantitation with the Kapa Library Quantification Kit. The libraries sequenced on two NextSeq high-output 2x75 paired-end sequencing runs in order to generate approximately 40 million pairs of reads per sample. Sequence reads were aligned to the human reference genome in a splice-aware fashion using Tophat2 (1), allowing for accurate alignments of sequences across introns. Aligned reads were quantitated at the gene level using HTseq (2). Normalization, expression modeling, and difference testing were performed using DESeq (3). Quality control measures included custom scripts and RSeqC (4) to examine read count metrics, alignment fraction, chromosomal S3 alignment counts, expression distribution measures, and principle components analysis and hierarchical clustering. Differentially expressed genes were detected by ANOVA and probesets of statistical significance were defined by a-fold change > 4 and a FDR £ 0.01. Gene set enrichment analysis was performed (on the gene expression values) to analyze the enrichment of the gene sets using GSEA software (http://www.broadinstitute.org/gsea/index.jsp). C5 collection version v6.0 from the Molecular Signature Database (MSigDB v6.0 C5), which contains the expert-curated gene ontology (GO) gene sets, were used in the analysis. We used vertebrate homology resource (http://www.informatics.jax.org/homology.shtml) to convert between homologues human and mouse genes. For all comparisons, data was collapsed to gene symbols. 1000 permutations based on gene sets were performed. Gene sets were ranked according to false discovery rate (FDR) q-value. At the default FDR q-value cut-off within GSEA of 0.25, we identified 3 gene sets that are upregulated in m19z and 68 gene sets upregulated in m1928z. Microarray and RNA-SEQ data have been submitted to GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) with the accession number GSE112567. CD33-targeted CARs Anti-CD33 antibodies were developed at the Vanderbilt Antibody and Protein Resource using standard methods (5). Briefly, after completing a series of immunizations splenocytes of immunized mice were isolated and fused to a non-Ig secreting myeloma cell line and grown in a semi-solid plate. Antibody- secreting clusters were identified in semi-solid plates and selected for clonal expansion in 96 well plates. S4 During expansion supernatant was collected and assayed for CD33 binding by ELISA as well as flow cytometry. Based on this screening hybridomas were selected for expansion and isolation of RNA, which was used to amplify IgH and IgL rearrangements. Based on the IgH and IgL rearrangements scFv were designed and cloned into the NcoI/NotI sites of our human CD19-targeted CAR in the SFG retroviral cassette. This allowed replacement of the anti-human CD19 scFv with anti-human CD33 scFv. These constructs were then used to produce gammaretroviral supernatant as described in Methods. In vivo NALM6 animal model of CD19-targeted CAR T cells The NALM6 leukemia mouse model has been described (6). Briefly, NALM6-GL cells were i.v. injected to NSG mice at 5x105 dose. Four days later, mice were treated with 3x105-1x106 human CD19 targeted CAR T cells. Human CD19 targeted CAR T cells with excess TRAF2 were made by CAR and mouse TRAF2 co-transduction or transduction with a bicistronic construct combining CAR and human TRAF2. Blood samples were collected weekly for flow cytometry. Leukemia burden was evaluated weekly using bioluminescence imaging on an IVIS system. Survival was monitored. Mice were sacrificed when they develop signs of progressive leukemia.

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.

  • Développement D'une Signature Moléculaire Dans La Maladie
    Développement d’une signature moléculaire dans la maladie osseuse de Paget Thèse Sabrina Guay-Bélanger Doctorat en médecine moléculaire Philosophiæ doctor (Ph.D.) Québec, Canada © Sabrina Guay-Bélanger, 2015 Résumé La maladie osseuse de Paget (MOP) a changé de visage au cours des dernières années, augmentant le nombre d’individus atteints qui demeurent asymptomatiques. Étant donné le risque élevé de développer un ostéosarcome associé avec la MOP, cette maladie est une contre-indication à la prescription d’agents ostéoformateurs. Avec l’apparition prochaine de nouveaux agents ostéoformateurs pour le traitement de l’ostéoporose, il devient crucial de pouvoir dépister de façon fiable la présence de la MOP. Les objectifs de ce projet étaient (1) de mettre au point un test plus sensible permettant de détecter et d’évaluer la fréquence des mutations post-zygotiques SQSTM1/P392L chez les patients pagétiques, (2) de développer un test génétique de dépistage de la MOP incluant les mutations germinales et post-zygotiques dans SQSTM1, (3) et d’évaluer les performances diagnostiques de ce test intégré avec des marqueurs biochimiques dans une signature moléculaire spécifique à la maladie. Une technique de PCR sensible utilisant un acide nucléique bloqué (LNA) spécifique à la mutation SQSTM1/P392L a été développée, puis la présence de cette mutation a été recherchée dans les cohortes disponibles au laboratoire et dans différents tissus. Ensuite, le développement de la signature moléculaire a utilisé les données génotypiques et biochimiques disponibles dans les cohortes du laboratoire, puis des régressions logistiques ont été effectuées afin de déterminer la combinaison de marqueurs ayant la meilleure capacité à identifier correctement les patients avec la MOP.

  • Detecting Remote, Functional Conserved Domains in Entire Genomes by Combining Relaxed Sequence-Database Searches with Fold Recognition
    HMMerThread: Detecting Remote, Functional Conserved Domains in Entire Genomes by Combining Relaxed Sequence-Database Searches with Fold Recognition Charles Richard Bradshaw1¤a, Vineeth Surendranath1, Robert Henschel2,3, Matthias Stefan Mueller2, Bianca Hermine Habermann1,4*¤b 1 Bioinformatics Laboratory, Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, Dresden, Saxony, Germany, 2 Center for Information Services and High Performance Computing (ZIH), Technical University, Dresden, Saxony, Germany, 3 High Performance Applications, Pervasive Technology Institute, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, United States of America, 4 Bioinformatics Laboratory, Scionics c/o Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, Dresden, Saxony, Germany Abstract Conserved domains in proteins are one of the major sources of functional information for experimental design and genome-level annotation. Though search tools for conserved domain databases such as Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are sensitive in detecting conserved domains in proteins when they share sufficient sequence similarity, they tend to miss more divergent family members, as they lack a reliable statistical framework for the detection of low sequence similarity. We have developed a greatly improved HMMerThread algorithm that can detect remotely conserved domains in highly divergent sequences. HMMerThread combines relaxed conserved domain searches with fold recognition to eliminate false positive, sequence-based identifications. With an accuracy of 90%, our software is able to automatically predict highly divergent members of conserved domain families with an associated 3-dimensional structure. We give additional confidence to our predictions by validation across species. We have run HMMerThread searches on eight proteomes including human and present a rich resource of remotely conserved domains, which adds significantly to the functional annotation of entire proteomes.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in
