CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Knockout of DNAJC14 Verifies This Chaperone
GENOME REPLICATION AND REGULATION OF VIRAL GENE EXPRESSION crossm CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Knockout of DNAJC14 Verifies This Chaperone as a Pivotal Host Factor for RNA Replication of Pestiviruses O. Isken,a A. Postel,b B. Bruhn,a E. Lattwein,a* P. Becher,b N. Tautza Downloaded from aUniversity of Luebeck, Institute of Virology and Cell Biology, Luebeck, Germany bUniversity of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, Institute for Virology, Hannover, Germany ABSTRACT Pestiviruses like bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) are a threat to live- stock. For pestiviruses, cytopathogenic (cp) and noncytopathogenic (noncp) strains are distinguished in cell culture. The noncp biotype of BVDV is capable of establish- ing persistent infections, which is a major problem in disease control. The noncp biotype rests on temporal control of viral RNA replication, mediated by regulated http://jvi.asm.org/ cleavage of nonstructural protein 2-3 (NS2-3). This cleavage is catalyzed by the auto- protease in NS2, the activity of which depends on its cellular cofactor, DNAJC14. Since this chaperone is available in small amounts and binds tightly to NS2, NS2-3 translated later in infection is no longer cleaved. As NS3 is an essential constituent of the viral replicase, this shift in polyprotein processing correlates with downregula- tion of RNA replication. In contrast, cp BVDV strains arising mostly by RNA recombi- nation show highly variable genome structures and display unrestricted NS3 release. on August 6, 2019 by guest The functional importance of DNAJC14 for noncp pestiviruses has been established so far only for BVDV-1. It was therefore enigmatic whether replication of other noncp pestiviruses is also DNAJC14 dependent. -

DECIPHERING TRANSCRIPTIONAL PATTERNS OF GENE REGULATION: A COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH by Princy Parsana A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July, 2020 © 2020 Princy Parsana All rights reserved Abstract With rapid advancements in sequencing technology, we now have the ability to sequence the entire human genome, and to quantify expression of tens of thousands of genes from hundreds of individuals. This provides an extraordinary opportunity to learn phenotype relevant genomic patterns that can improve our understanding of molecular and cellular processes underlying a trait. The high dimensional nature of genomic data presents a range of computational and statistical challenges. This dissertation presents a compilation of projects that were driven by the motivation to efficiently capture gene regulatory patterns in the human transcriptome, while addressing statistical and computational challenges that accompany this data. We attempt to address two major difficulties in this domain: a) artifacts and noise in transcriptomic data, andb) limited statistical power. First, we present our work on investigating the effect of artifactual variation in gene expression data and its impact on trans-eQTL discovery. Here we performed an in-depth analysis of diverse pre-recorded covariates and latent confounders to understand their contribution to heterogeneity in gene expression measurements. Next, we discovered 673 trans-eQTLs across 16 human tissues using v6 data from the Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Finally, we characterized two trait-associated trans-eQTLs; one in Skeletal Muscle and another in Thyroid. Second, we present a principal component based residualization method to correct gene expression measurements prior to reconstruction of co-expression networks. -

ABSTRACT Tumour angiogenesis is a vital process in the pathology of tumour development and metastasis. Targeting markers of tumour endothelium provide a means of targeted destruction of a tumours oxygen and nutrient supply via destruction of tumour vasculature, which in turn ultimately leads to beneficial consequences to patients. Although current anti -angiogenic and vascular targeting strategies help patients, more potently in combination with chemo therapy, there is still a need for more tumour endothelial marker discoveries as current treatments have cardiovascular and other side effects. For the first time, the analyses of in-vivo biotinylation of an embryonic system is performed to obtain putative vascular targets. Also for the first time, deep sequencing is applied to freshly isolated tumour and normal endothelial cells from lung, colon and bladder tissues for the identification of pan-vascular-targets. Integration of the proteomic, deep sequencing, public cDNA libraries and microarrays, delivers 5,892 putative vascular targets to the science community. -
The Atypical Guanine-Nucleotide Exchange Factor, Dock7, Negatively Regulates Schwann Cell Differentiation and Myelination
The Journal of Neuroscience, August 31, 2011 • 31(35):12579–12592 • 12579 Cellular/Molecular The Atypical Guanine-Nucleotide Exchange Factor, Dock7, Negatively Regulates Schwann Cell Differentiation and Myelination Junji Yamauchi,1,3,5 Yuki Miyamoto,1 Hajime Hamasaki,1,3 Atsushi Sanbe,1 Shinji Kusakawa,1 Akane Nakamura,2 Hideki Tsumura,2 Masahiro Maeda,4 Noriko Nemoto,6 Katsumasa Kawahara,5 Tomohiro Torii,1 and Akito Tanoue1 1Department of Pharmacology and 2Laboratory Animal Resource Facility, National Research Institute for Child Health and Development, Setagaya, Tokyo 157-8535, Japan, 3Department of Biological Sciences, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Midori, Yokohama 226-8501, Japan, 4IBL, Ltd., Fujioka, Gumma 375-0005, Japan, and 5Department of Physiology and 6Bioimaging Research Center, Kitasato University School of Medicine, Sagamihara, Kanagawa 252-0374, Japan In development of the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells proliferate, migrate, and ultimately differentiate to form myelin sheath. In all of the myelination stages, Schwann cells continuously undergo morphological changes; however, little is known about their underlying molecular mechanisms. We previously cloned the dock7 gene encoding the atypical Rho family guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) and reported the positive role of Dock7, the target Rho GTPases Rac/Cdc42, and the downstream c-Jun N-terminal kinase in Schwann cell migration (Yamauchi et al., 2008). We investigated the role of Dock7 in Schwann cell differentiation and myelination. Knockdown of Dock7 by the specific small interfering (si)RNA in primary Schwann cells promotes dibutyryl cAMP-induced morpholog- ical differentiation, indicating the negative role of Dock7 in Schwann cell differentiation. It also results in a shorter duration of activation of Rac/Cdc42 and JNK, which is the negative regulator of myelination, and the earlier activation of Rho and Rho-kinase, which is the positive regulator of myelination. -

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. -

A Rac/Cdc42 Exchange Factor Complex Promotes Formation of Lateral filopodia and Blood Vessel Lumen Morphogenesis
ARTICLE Received 1 Oct 2014 | Accepted 26 Apr 2015 | Published 1 Jul 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms8286 OPEN A Rac/Cdc42 exchange factor complex promotes formation of lateral filopodia and blood vessel lumen morphogenesis Sabu Abraham1,w,*, Margherita Scarcia2,w,*, Richard D. Bagshaw3,w,*, Kathryn McMahon2,w, Gary Grant2, Tracey Harvey2,w, Maggie Yeo1, Filomena O.G. Esteves2, Helene H. Thygesen2,w, Pamela F. Jones4, Valerie Speirs2, Andrew M. Hanby2, Peter J. Selby2, Mihaela Lorger2, T. Neil Dear4,w, Tony Pawson3,z, Christopher J. Marshall1 & Georgia Mavria2 During angiogenesis, Rho-GTPases influence endothelial cell migration and cell–cell adhesion; however it is not known whether they control formation of vessel lumens, which are essential for blood flow. Here, using an organotypic system that recapitulates distinct stages of VEGF-dependent angiogenesis, we show that lumen formation requires early cytoskeletal remodelling and lateral cell–cell contacts, mediated through the RAC1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) DOCK4 (dedicator of cytokinesis 4). DOCK4 signalling is necessary for lateral filopodial protrusions and tubule remodelling prior to lumen formation, whereas proximal, tip filopodia persist in the absence of DOCK4. VEGF-dependent Rac activation via DOCK4 is necessary for CDC42 activation to signal filopodia formation and depends on the activation of RHOG through the RHOG GEF, SGEF. VEGF promotes interaction of DOCK4 with the CDC42 GEF DOCK9. These studies identify a novel Rho-family GTPase activation cascade for the formation of endothelial cell filopodial protrusions necessary for tubule remodelling, thereby influencing subsequent stages of lumen morphogenesis. 1 Institute of Cancer Research, Division of Cancer Biology, 237 Fulham Road, London SW3 6JB, UK. -
Gene Expression Profiles of Estrogen Receptor–Positive and Estrogen Receptor–Negative Breast Cancers Are Detectable in Histologically Normal Breast Epithelium
Published OnlineFirst November 8, 2010; DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-10-1369 Clinical Cancer Human Cancer Biology Research Gene Expression Profiles of Estrogen Receptor–Positive and Estrogen Receptor–Negative Breast Cancers Are Detectable in Histologically Normal Breast Epithelium Kelly Graham1, Xijin Ge4, Antonio de las Morenas2, Anusri Tripathi3, and Carol L. Rosenberg1,2,3 Abstract Purpose: Previously, we found that gene expression in histologically normal breast epithelium (NlEpi) from women at high breast cancer risk can resemble gene expression in NlEpi from cancer-containing breasts. Therefore, we hypothesized that gene expression characteristic of a cancer subtype might be seen in NlEpi of breasts containing that subtype. Experimental Design: We examined gene expression in 46 cases of microdissected NlEpi from untreated women undergoing breast cancer surgery. From 30 age-matched cases [15 estrogen receptor (ER)þ,15ERÀ] we used Affymetryix U133A arrays. From 16 independent cases (9 ERþ,7ERÀ), we validated selected genes using quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). We then compared gene expression between NlEpi and invasive breast cancer using four publicly available data sets. Results: We identified 198 genes that are differentially expressed between NlEpi from breasts with ERþ (NlEpiERþ) compared with ERÀ cancers (NlEpiERÀ). These include genes characteristic of ERþ and ERÀ cancers (e.g., ESR1, GATA3, and CX3CL1, FABP7). qPCR validated the microarray results in both the 30 original cases and the 16 independent cases. Gene expression in NlEpiERþ and NlEpiERÀ resembled gene expression in ERþ and ERÀ cancers, respectively: 25% to 53% of the genes or probes examined in four external data sets overlapped between NlEpi and the corresponding cancer subtype.
