PRODUCT INFORMATION Antigen Description Glutamate-cysteine ligase, also known as gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase is the first rate- limiting enzyme of glutathione synthesis. The enzyme consists of two subunits, a heavy catalytic subunit and a light regulatory subunit. This locus encodes the catalytic subunit, while the regulatory subunit is derived from a different gene located on chromosome 1p22-p21. Mutations at this locus have been associated with hemolytic anemia due to deficiency of gamma- glutamylcysteine synthetase and susceptibility to myocardial infarction.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010] Immunogen GCLC (NP_001489, 528 a.a. ~ 637 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag.

To date, however, genomic biomarkers to direct clinical translation have been lacking. We conducted a cell-based screen of genetically defined cancer cell lines using a prototypical inhibitor of BET bromodomains. Integration of genetic features with chemosensitivity data revealed a robust correlation between MYCN amplification and sensitivity to bromodomain inhibition. We characterized the mechanistic and translational significance of this finding in neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer with frequent amplification of MYCN. Genome-wide expression analysis showed downregulation of the MYCN transcriptional program accompanied by suppression of MYCN transcription. Functionally, bromodomain-mediated inhibition of MYCN impaired growth and induced apoptosis in neuroblastoma. BRD4 knockdown phenocopied these effects, establishing BET bromodomains as transcriptional regulators of MYCN. BET inhibition conferred a significant survival advantage in 3 in vivo neuroblastoma models, providing a compelling rationale for developing BET bro- modomain inhibitors in patients with neuroblastoma.

Nuclear factor-E2-related factor 1 (NFE2L1, Nrf1) is known to regulate the expression of a number of genes involved in oxidative stress and inflammation. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of NFE2L1 on the response to oxidative stress in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. Methods: The murine calvaria-derived MC3T3-E1 cell line was exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for oxidative stress induc- tion. NFE2L1 effects were evaluated using small interfering RNA (siRNA) for NFE2L1 mRNA. ROS generation and the levels of known antioxidant enzyme genes were assayed. Results: NFE2L1 expression was significantly increased 2.4-fold compared to the control group at 10 μg/mL LPS in MC3T3-E1 cells (P<0.05). LPS increased formation of intracellular ROS in MC3T3-E1 cells. NFE2L1 knockdown led to an additional in- crease of ROS (20%) in the group transfected with NFE2L1 siRNA compared with the control group under LPS stimulation (P<0.05).

  • Distinct Isoforms of Nrf1 Diversely Regulate Different Subsets of Its Cognate Target Genes

All rights reserved. No reuse allowed without permission. Distinct isoforms of Nrf1 diversely regulate different subsets of its cognate target genes Meng Wang, Lu Qiu, Xufang Ru, Yijiang Song, Yiguo Zhang* The Laboratory of Cell Biochemistry and Topogenetic Regulation, College of Bioengineering and Faculty of Sciences, Chongqing University, No. 174 Shazheng Street, Shapingba District, Chongqing 400044, China *Correspondence should be addressed to Yiguo Zhang (email: [email protected] or [email protected]). Abstract The single Nrf1 gene has capability to be differentially transcripted alongside with alternative mRNA-splicing and subsequent translation through different initiation signals so as to yield distinct lengths of polypeptide isoforms. Amongst them, three of the most representatives are Nrf1α, Nrf1β and Nrf1γ, but the putative specific contribution of each isoform to regulating ARE-driven target genes remains unknown. To address this, we have here established three cell lines on the base of the Flp-In™ T-REx™ system, which are allowed for tetracycline-inducibly stable expression of Nrf1α, Nrf1β and Nrf1γ. The RNA-Sequencing results have demonstrated that a vast majority of differentially expressed genes (i.e. 90 DEGs detected) were dominantly up-regulated by Nrf1α and/or Nrf1β following induction by tetracycline. By contrast, other DEGs regulated by Nrf1γ were far less than those regulated by Nrf1α/β (i.e. ~11 of Nrf1α and 7 of Nrf1β). Further transcriptomic analysis revealed that tetracycline-induced expression of Nrf1γ significantly increased the percentage of down-regulated genes in total DEGs.

  • NRF2-Dependent Gene Expression Promotes Ciliogenesis And
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN NRF2-dependent gene expression promotes ciliogenesis and Hedgehog signaling Received: 8 April 2019 Ana Martin-Hurtado1,2, Raquel Martin-Morales1,2, Natalia Robledinos-Antón1,2,3, Accepted: 11 September 2019 Ruth Blanco1,2,3, Ines Palacios-Blanco1,2, Isabel Lastres-Becker1,2,3, Antonio Cuadrado1,2,3 & Published: xx xx xxxx Francesc R. Garcia-Gonzalo 1,2 The transcription factor NRF2 is a master regulator of cellular antioxidant and detoxifcation responses, but it also regulates other processes such as autophagy and pluripotency. In human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), NRF2 antagonizes neuroectoderm diferentiation, which only occurs after NRF2 is repressed via a Primary Cilia-Autophagy-NRF2 (PAN) axis. However, the functional connections between NRF2 and primary cilia, microtubule-based plasma membrane protrusions that function as cellular antennae, remain poorly understood. For instance, nothing is known about whether NRF2 afects cilia, or whether cilia regulation of NRF2 extends beyond hESCs. Here, we show that NRF2 and primary cilia reciprocally regulate each other. First, we demonstrate that fbroblasts lacking primary cilia have higher NRF2 activity, which is rescued by autophagy-activating mTOR inhibitors, indicating that the PAN axis also operates in diferentiated cells. Furthermore, NRF2 controls cilia formation and function. NRF2-null cells grow fewer and shorter cilia and display impaired Hedgehog signaling, a cilia- dependent pathway. These defects are not due to increased oxidative stress or ciliophagy, but rather to NRF2 promoting expression of multiple ciliogenic and Hedgehog pathway genes. Among these, we focused on GLI2 and GLI3, the transcription factors controlling Hh pathway output. Both their mRNA and protein levels are reduced in NRF2-null cells, consistent with their gene promoters containing consensus ARE sequences predicted to bind NRF2.

Several factors complicate the analysis, in particular that may contribute to the activation of oncogenes or inactivation mappability issues due to repetitive sequence regions (15). Indeed, of tumor suppressors, for example, by altering gene copy number it has become clear that the results produced by different methods amplitude. However, there are multiple other ways in which SVs are not consistent, and some studies have intersected multiple ap- can modulate transcription, but the general impact of such events proaches to provide a presumed high-confidence set of predictions on tumor transcriptional output has not been systematically de- (16, 17).

Abstract Body fat distribution is a heritable trait and a well-established predictor of adverse metabolic outcomes, independent of overall adiposity. To increase our understanding of the genetic basis of body fat distribution and its molecular links to cardiometabolic traits, we conducted genome-wide association meta-analyses of waist and hip circumference-related traits in up to 224,459 individuals. We identified 49 loci (33 new) associated with waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index (WHRadjBMI) and an additional 19 loci newly associated with related waist and hip circumference measures (P<5×10−8). Twenty of the 49 WHRadjBMI loci showed significant sexual dimorphism, 19 of which displayed a stronger effect in women. The identified loci were enriched for genes expressed in adipose tissue and for putative regulatory elements in adipocytes. Pathway analyses implicated adipogenesis, angiogenesis, transcriptional regulation, and insulin resistance as processes affecting fat distribution, providing insight into potential pathophysiological mechanisms. Europe PMC Funders Author Manuscripts Depot-specific accumulation of fat, particularly in the central abdomen, confers an elevated risk of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases and mortality1. An easily accessible measure of body fat distribution is waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), a comparison of waist and hip circumferences.

Despite the emerging physiological importance of NRF family members, the repertoire of their genetic targets remains incompletely defined. Here we use RNA-sequencing-based transcriptional profiling and quantitative proteomics to delineate the overlapping and differential genetic programs effected by the three NRF transcription factors. We then create consensus target gene sets regulated by NRF1, NRF2, and NRF3 and define the integrity of these gene sets for probing NRF activity in mammalian cell culture and human tissues. Together, our data provide a quantitative assessment of how NRF family members sculpt proteomes and transcriptomes, providing a framework to understand the critical physiological importance of NRF transcription factors and to establish pharmacologic approaches for therapeutically activating these transcriptional programs in disease.

  • Systematic Analysis, Comparison, and Integration of Disease Based Human
    Zhang et al. BMC Medical Genomics 2010, 3:1 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1755-8794/3/1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Systematic analysis, comparison, and integration of disease based human genetic association data and mouse genetic phenotypic information Yonqing Zhang1†, Supriyo De1†, John R Garner1, Kirstin Smith1, S Alex Wang2, Kevin G Becker1* Abstract Background: The genetic contributions to human common disorders and mouse genetic models of disease are complex and often overlapping. In common human diseases, unlike classical Mendelian disorders, genetic factors generally have small effect sizes, are multifactorial, and are highly pleiotropic. Likewise, mouse genetic models of disease often have pleiotropic and overlapping phenotypes. Moreover, phenotypic descriptions in the literature in both human and mouse are often poorly characterized and difficult to compare directly. Methods: In this report, human genetic association results from the literature are summarized with regard to replication, disease phenotype, and gene specific results; and organized in the context of a systematic disease ontology. Similarly summarized mouse genetic disease models are organized within the Mammalian Phenotype ontology. Human and mouse disease and phenotype based gene sets are identified. These disease gene sets are then compared individually and in large groups through dendrogram analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis. Results: Human disease and mouse phenotype gene sets are shown to group into disease and phenotypically relevant groups at both a coarse and fine level based on gene sharing. Conclusion: This analysis provides a systematic and global perspective on the genetics of common human disease as compared to itself and in the context of mouse genetic models of disease.
