Analysis of Trans Esnps Infers Regulatory Network Architecture
Analysis of trans eSNPs infers regulatory network architecture Anat Kreimer Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Anat Kreimer All rights reserved ABSTRACT Analysis of trans eSNPs infers regulatory network architecture Anat Kreimer eSNPs are genetic variants associated with transcript expression levels. The characteristics of such variants highlight their importance and present a unique opportunity for studying gene regulation. eSNPs affect most genes and their cell type specificity can shed light on different processes that are activated in each cell. They can identify functional variants by connecting SNPs that are implicated in disease to a molecular mechanism. Examining eSNPs that are associated with distal genes can provide insights regarding the inference of regulatory networks but also presents challenges due to the high statistical burden of multiple testing. Such association studies allow: simultaneous investigation of many gene expression phenotypes without assuming any prior knowledge and identification of unknown regulators of gene expression while uncovering directionality. This thesis will focus on such distal eSNPs to map regulatory interactions between different loci and expose the architecture of the regulatory network defined by such interactions. We develop novel computational approaches and apply them to genetics-genomics data in human. We go beyond pairwise interactions to define network motifs, including regulatory modules and bi-fan structures, showing them to be prevalent in real data and exposing distinct attributes of such arrangements. We project eSNP associations onto a protein-protein interaction network to expose topological properties of eSNPs and their targets and highlight different modes of distal regulation. -

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. -

China Received September 12, 2019; Accepted October 22, 2020 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2020.12320 Abstract. Glioma is the most common type of brain tumor APC expression with a good overall survival rate. UALCAN and is associated with a high mortality rate. Despite recent analysis using TCGA data of glioblastoma multiforme and the advances in treatment options, the overall prognosis in patients GSE25632 and GSE103229 microarray datasets showed that with glioma remains poor. Studies have suggested that circular hsa‑miR‑142‑3p/hsa‑miR‑590‑5p was upregulated and APC (circ)RNAs serve important roles in the development and was downregulated. Thus, hsa‑miR‑142‑3p/hsa‑miR‑590‑5p‑ progression of glioma and may have potential as therapeutic APC‑related circ/ceRNA axes may be important in glioma, targets.

The present study Functional analysis showed that hsa_circ_0005114 was aimed to screen differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) involved in insulin secretion, while APC was associated with between glioma and normal brain tissues using sequencing the Wnt signaling pathway.

Suter ([email protected]) Summary Mammalian transcription factors (TFs) differ broadly in their nuclear mobility and sequence- specific/non-specific DNA binding affinity. How these properties affect the ability of TFs to occupy their specific binding sites in the genome and modify the epigenetic landscape is unclear. Here we combined live cell quantitative measurements of mitotic chromosome binding (MCB) of 502 TFs, measurements of TF mobility by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, single molecule imaging of DNA binding in live cells, and genome-wide mapping of TF binding and chromatin accessibility. MCB scaled with interphase properties such as association with DNA-rich compartments, mobility, as well as large differences in genome-wide specific site occupancy that correlated with TF impact on chromatin accessibility. As MCB is largely mediated by electrostatic, non-specific TF-DNA interactions, our data suggests that non-specific DNA binding of TFs enhances their search for specific sites and thereby their impact on the accessible chromatin landscape. -

The existence of a multipotent progenitor for all anatomic and cellular components of the heart has been predicted but its identity and contribution to the two cardiac progenitor "fields" has remained undefined. Here we show, using clonal genetic fate mapping, that Mesp1+ cells in gastrulating mesoderm are rapidly specified into committed cardiac precursors fated for distinct anatomic regions of the heart. We identify Smarcd3 as a marker of early specified cardiac precursors and identify within these precursors a compartment boundary at the future junction of the left and right ventricles that arises prior to morphogenesis. Our studies define the timing and hierarchy of cardiac progenitor specification and demonstrate that the cellular and anatomical fate of mesoderm-derived cardiac cells is specified very early. These findings will be important to understand the basis of congenital heart defects and to derive cardiac regeneration strategies. -

Genome-Wide Transcriptome and Binding Sites Analyses Identify

To elucidate the regulatory mechanisms involved, we investigated hESCs grown on three distinct culture platforms: feeder-free Matrigel, mouse embryonic fibroblast feeders, and Matrigel replated on feeders. At the outset, we profiled and quantified their differentiation efficiency, transcriptome, transcription factor binding sites and DNA- methylation. Subsequent genome-wide analyses allowed us to reconstruct the relevant interactome, thereby forming the regulatory basis for implicating the contrasting differentiation efficiency of the culture conditions. We hypothesized that the parental expressions of FOXC1, FOXD1 and FOXQ1 transcription factors (TFs) are correlative with eventual cardiomyogenic outcome. Through WNT induction of the FOX TFs, we observed the co-activation of WNT3 and EOMES which are potent inducers of mesoderm differentiation. The result strengthened our hypothesis on the regulatory role of the FOX TFs in enhancing mesoderm differentiation capacity of hESCs. Importantly, the final proportions of cells expressing cardiac markers were directly correlated to the strength of FOX inductions within 72 hours after initiation of differentiation across different cell lines and protocols. Thus, we affirmed the relationship between early FOX TF expressions and cardiomyogenesis efficiency. -
