ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Robert Daniel Macholan May 2011 ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION Robert Daniel Macholan Thesis Approved: Accepted: _______________________________ _______________________________ Advisor Department Chair Dr. Zhong-Hui Duan Dr. Chien-Chung Chan _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the College Dr. Chien-Chung Chan Dr. Chand K. Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins. -

E. Carey at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. The UM-SCC cell lines were derived from eight patients with SCC of the upper aerodigestive tract (supplemental Table 1). Patient age at tumor diagnosis ranged from 37 to 72 years. The cell lines selected were obtained from patients with stage I-IV tumors, distributed among oral, pharyngeal and laryngeal sites. All the patients had aggressive disease, with early recurrence and death within two years of therapy. Cell lines established from single isolates of a patient specimen are designated by a numeric designation, and where isolates from two time points or anatomical sites were obtained, the designation includes an alphabetical suffix (i.e., "A" or "B"). The cell lines were maintained in Eagle's minimal essential media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and penicillin/streptomycin. -

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. -

Patterns of DNA methylation on the human X chromosome and use in analyzing X-chromosome inactivation by Allison Marie Cotton B.Sc., The University of Guelph, 2005 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Medical Genetics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) January 2012 © Allison Marie Cotton, 2012 Abstract The process of X-chromosome inactivation achieves dosage compensation between mammalian males and females. In females one X chromosome is transcriptionally silenced through a variety of epigenetic modifications including DNA methylation. Most X-linked genes are subject to X-chromosome inactivation and only expressed from the active X chromosome. On the inactive X chromosome, the CpG island promoters of genes subject to X-chromosome inactivation are methylated in their promoter regions, while genes which escape from X- chromosome inactivation have unmethylated CpG island promoters on both the active and inactive X chromosomes. The first objective of this thesis was to determine if the DNA methylation of CpG island promoters could be used to accurately predict X chromosome inactivation status. The second objective was to use DNA methylation to predict X-chromosome inactivation status in a variety of tissues. A comparison of blood, muscle, kidney and neural tissues revealed tissue-specific X-chromosome inactivation, in which 12% of genes escaped from X-chromosome inactivation in some, but not all, tissues. X-linked DNA methylation analysis of placental tissues predicted four times higher escape from X-chromosome inactivation than in any other tissue. Despite the hypomethylation of repetitive elements on both the X chromosome and the autosomes, no changes were detected in the frequency or intensity of placental Cot-1 holes. -

Cai et al. BMC Medical Genomics (2020) 13:33 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12920-020-0695-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Specific chromatin landscapes and transcription factors couple breast cancer subtype with metastatic relapse to lung or brain Wesley L. Cai1, Celeste B. Greer1,2, Jocelyn F. Chen1, Anna Arnal-Estapé1,3, Jian Cao1,3,4, Qin Yan1,3,5,6*† and Don X. Nguyen1,3,5,6,7*† Abstract Background: Few somatic mutations have been linked to breast cancer metastasis, whereas transcriptomic differences among primary tumors correlate with incidence of metastasis, especially to the lungs and brain. However, the epigenomic alterations and transcription factors (TFs) which underlie these alterations remain unclear. Methods: To identify these, we performed RNA-seq, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) and Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) of the MDA-MB-231 cell line and its brain (BrM2) and lung (LM2) metastatic sub-populations. We incorporated ATAC-seq data from TCGA to assess metastatic open chromatin signatures, and gene expression data from human metastatic datasets to nominate transcription factor biomarkers. Results: Our integrated epigenomic analyses found that lung and brain metastatic cells exhibit both shared and distinctive signatures of active chromatin. Notably, metastatic sub-populations exhibit increased activation of both promoters and enhancers. We also integrated these data with chromosome conformation capture coupled with ChIP-seq (HiChIP) derived enhancer-promoter interactions to predict enhancer-controlled pathway alterations. We found that enhancer changes are associated with endothelial cell migration in LM2, and negative regulation of epithelial cell proliferation in BrM2. Promoter changes are associated with vasculature development in LM2 and homophilic cell adhesion in BrM2. -

Recombinant Human Fibronectin Leucine Rich Transmembrane Protein 2/FLRT2 (C-6His)
9853 Pacific Heights Blvd. Suite D. San Diego, CA 92121, USA Tel: 858-263-4982 Email: [email protected] 32-7320: Recombinant Human Fibronectin Leucine Rich Transmembrane Protein 2/FLRT2 (C-6His) Gene : FLRT2 Gene ID : 23768 Uniprot ID : O43155 Description Source: Human Cells. MW :57.3kD. Recombinant Human FLRT2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Cys36-Ser539 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Fibronectin Leucine Rich Transmembrane protein 2 (FLRT2) is a member of the fibronectin leucine rich transmembrane protein (FLRT) family. The three fibronectin leucine-rich repeat transmembrane (FLRT) proteins: FLRT1, FLRT2 and FLRT3, all contain 10 leucine-rich repeats (LRR), a type III fibronectin (FN) domain, followed by the transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic tail. FLRT proteins have dual properties as regulators of cell adhesion and potentiators of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) mediated signalling. The fibronectin domain of all three FLRTs can bind FGF receptors. This binding is thought to regulate FGF signaling during development. The LRR domains are responsible for both the localization of FLRTs in areas of cell contact and homotypic cell cell association. FLRT2 is expressed in a subset of the sclerotome, adjacent to the region that forms the syndetome, suggesting its involvement in the FGF signalling pathway. Product Info Amount : 10 µg / 50 µg Content : Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.2. Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Storage condition : Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. -
