An earlier study revealed abnormal methylation in the imprinted p15.5-p15.4 region of chromosome 11, known to be abnormally methylated in another disorder of expanded beta cell mass and function: the focal variant of congenital hyperinsulinism. Here, we compare deep DNA methylome sequencing on 19 human insulinomas, and five sets of normal beta cells. We find a remarkably consistent, abnormal methylation pattern in insu- linomas. The findings suggest that abnormal insulin (INS) promoter methylation and altered transcription factor expression create alternative drivers of INS expression, replacing cano- nical PDX1-driven beta cell specification with a pathological, looping, distal enhancer-based form of transcriptional regulation. Finally, NFaT transcription factors, rather than the cano- nical PDX1 enhancer complex, are predicted to drive INS transactivation. 1 From the Diabetes Obesity and Metabolism Institute, The Department of Surgery, The Department of Pathology, The Department of Genetics and Genomics Sciences and The Institute for Genomics and Multiscale Biology, The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY 10029, USA.

Mann 3,4 1234567890():,; Genomic imprinting is a phenomenon that restricts transcription to predominantly one par- ental allele. How this transcriptional duality is regulated is poorly understood. Here we perform an RNA interference screen for epigenetic factors involved in paternal allelic silen- cing at the Kcnq1ot1 imprinted domain in mouse extraembryonic endoderm stem cells. Multiple factors are identified, including nucleoporin 107 (NUP107). To determine NUP107’s role and specificity in Kcnq1ot1 imprinted domain regulation, we deplete Nup107, as well as Nup62, Nup98/96 and Nup153. Nup107, Nup62 and Nup153, but not Nup98/96 depletion, reduce Kcnq1ot1 noncoding RNA volume, displace the Kcnq1ot1 domain from the nuclear periphery, reactivate a subset of normally silent paternal alleles in the domain, alter histone modifications with concomitant changes in KMT2A, EZH2 and EHMT2 occupancy, as well as reduce cohesin interactions at the Kcnq1ot1 imprinting control region. Our results establish an important role for specific nucleoporins in mediating Kcnq1ot1 imprinted domain regulation. 1 Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, and Biochemistry, Western University, Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, London, ON N6A 5W9, Canada. 2 Children’s Health Research Institute, London, ON N6C 2V5, Canada. 3 Departments of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA. 4 Magee-Womens Research Institute, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA.

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.

(A) Primary glomerular epithelial cells (PGECs) were isolated from 12-week old Podocin-Cre Klf15flox/flox and Podocin-Cre Klf15+/+ mice and cultured at 37°C for 1 week. Real-time PCR was performed for Nephrin, Podocin, Synaptopodin, and Wt1 mRNA expression (n=6, ***p<0.001, Mann-Whitney test). (B) Real- time PCR was performed for Klf15 mRNA expression (n=6, *p<0.05, Mann-Whitney test). (C) Protein was also extracted and western blot analysis for Klf15 was performed. The representative blot of three independent experiments is shown in the top panel. The bottom panel shows the quantification of Klf15 by densitometry (n=3, *p<0.05, Mann-Whitney test). (D) Immunofluorescence staining for Klf15 and Wt1 was performed in 12-week old Podocin-Cre Klf15flox/flox and Podocin-Cre Klf15+/+ mice. Representative images from four mice in each group are shown in the left panel (X 20). Arrows show colocalization of Klf15 and Wt1. Arrowheads show a lack of colocalization. Asterisk demonstrates nonspecific Wt1 staining. “R” represents autofluorescence from RBCs. In the right panel, a total of 30 glomeruli were selected in each mouse and quantification of Klf15 staining in the podocytes was determined by the ratio of Klf15+ and Wt1+ cells to Wt1+ cells (n=6 mice, **p<0.01, unpaired t test). Supplementary Figure 2: LPS treated Podocin-Cre Klf15flox/flox mice exhibit a lack of recovery in proteinaceous casts and tubular dilatation after DEX administration.

    Molecular & Biochemical Parasitology 121 (2002) 33Á/47 www.parasitology-online.com Sequence variation in the dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) and trypanothione reductase (TR) genes of Trypanosoma cruzi Carlos A. Machado *, Francisco J. Ayala Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Irvine, CA 92697-2525, USA Received 15 November 2001; received in revised form 25 January 2002 Abstract Dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) and trypanothione reductase (TR) are important enzymes for the metabolism of protozoan parasites from the family Trypanosomatidae (e.g. Trypanosoma spp., Leishmania spp.) that are targets of current drug-design studies. Very limited information exists on the levels of genetic polymorphism of these enzymes in natural populations of any trypanosomatid parasite. We present results of a survey of nucleotide variation in the genes coding for those enzymes in a large sample of strains from Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas’ disease. We discuss the results from an evolutionary perspective. A sample of 31 strains show 39 silent and five amino acid polymorphisms in DHFR-TS, and 35 silent and 11 amino acid polymorphisms in TR. No amino acid replacements occur in regions that are important for the enzymatic activity of these proteins, but some polymorphisms occur in sites previously assumed to be invariant. The sequences from both genes cluster in four major groups, a result that is not fully consistent with the current classification of T. cruzi in two major groups of strains. Most polymorphisms correspond to fixed differences among the four sequence groups. Two tests of neutrality show that there is no evidence of adaptivedivergence or of selectiveevents having shaped the distribution of polymorphisms and fixed differences in these genes in T.

Species Reactivity: Human, Monkey Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Phe52 of human Sec24A protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography. Background Coat Protein Complex II (COPII) is composed of five cytosolic proteins: Sec23/24 complex, Sec13/31 complex, and Sar1. COPII coat is located at the ER/Golgi interface and is involved in transport of newly synthesized proteins from the ER to the Golgi apparatus (1). COPII formation is initiated through the binding of the activated G protein, Sar1, to the Sec23/24 complex, thereby forming a prebudding complex that directly binds target molecules (1-3).

Mammalian genomes encode four Sec24 paralogs (Sec24a-d), with two subfamilies based on sequence homology (SEC24A/B and C/D), though little is known about their comparative functions and cargo-specificities. Complete deficiency for Sec24d results in very early embryonic lethality in mice (before the 8 cell stage), with later embryonic lethality (E 7.5) observed in Sec24c null mice. To test the potential overlap in function between SEC24C/D, we employed dual recombinase mediated cassette exchange to generate a Sec24cc-d allele, in which the C-terminal 90% of SEC24C has been replaced by SEC24D coding sequence. In contrast to the embryonic lethality at E7.5 of SEC24C-deficiency, Sec24cc-d/c-d pups survive to term, though dying shortly after birth.

  • ITRAQ-Based Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Processed Euphorbia Lathyris L
    Zhang et al. Proteome Science (2018) 16:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12953-018-0136-6 RESEARCH Open Access ITRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis of processed Euphorbia lathyris L. for reducing the intestinal toxicity Yu Zhang1, Yingzi Wang1*, Shaojing Li2*, Xiuting Zhang1, Wenhua Li1, Shengxiu Luo1, Zhenyang Sun1 and Ruijie Nie1 Abstract Background: Euphorbia lathyris L., a Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is commonly used for the treatment of hydropsy, ascites, constipation, amenorrhea, and scabies. Semen Euphorbiae Pulveratum, which is another type of Euphorbia lathyris that is commonly used in TCM practice and is obtained by removing the oil from the seed that is called paozhi, has been known to ease diarrhea. Whereas, the mechanisms of reducing intestinal toxicity have not been clearly investigated yet. Methods: In this study, the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) in combination with the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) proteomic method was applied to investigate the effects of Euphorbia lathyris L. on the protein expression involved in intestinal metabolism, in order to illustrate the potential attenuated mechanism of Euphorbia lathyris L. processing. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the intestine after treated with Semen Euphorbiae (SE), Semen Euphorbiae Pulveratum (SEP) and Euphorbiae Factor 1 (EFL1) were identified. The bioinformatics analysis including GO analysis, pathway analysis, and network analysis were done to analyze the key metabolic pathways underlying the attenuation mechanism through protein network in diarrhea. Western blot were performed to validate selected protein and the related pathways. Results: A number of differentially expressed proteins that may be associated with intestinal inflammation were identified.
