Utilizing M. musculus as a model of mitochondrial dysfunction provides insight into cellular adaptations which occur as a consequence of genetic alterations causative of human disease. We characterized genome-wide expression profiles of liver-conditional knockout mice for Pdss2 compared with loxP controls.
Primary coenzyme Q deficiency in Pdss2 mutant mice causes isolated renal disease.

View SamplesWe extracted RNA from whole cells and RNA from the cytoplasm and performed RNA sequening to compare differences in gene expression level and investigate what is the most appropriate estimate of the amount of mRNA present in a given cell population. The study was based on three human cell lines. Overall design: Analyze of transcriptome in 3 human cell lines (U-2 OS, A-431, U-251MG). Each cell line was prepared with four biological replicates for total RNA and four for cytoplasmic RNA.

View SamplesNHEK cells were plated at a density of 8 x 10 000/cm2 and the cell cultures were grown for 24 hours before addition of 2 mM N-Acetyl-L-Cystein. RNA obtained from cultures grown for 1, 12 and 24 hrs after NAC treatment were compared to RNA from untreated cells at the corresponding time points. I.e 1 hour NAC treated vs 1 hour untreated cells etc. Each EXTRACT represents an individual mRNA extraction and subsequent cDNA synthesis from a batch of totalRNA originating from one cellculture dish.

RNA obtained from cultures grown for 1, 12 and 24 hrs after NAC treatment were compared to RNA from untreated cells at the corresponding time points. I.e 1 hour NAC treated vs 1 hour untreated cells etc. Each "SAMPLE" represents a biological replicate (i.e. separate cellcultures treated similarily) although I have given identical SAMPLE numbers in pairs.

Dual role of FoxA1 in androgen receptor binding to chromatin, androgen signalling and prostate cancer.
Specimen part, Cell line
View SamplesWe report the dual role of FoxA1 in androgen receptor recruitment to the chromatin of androgen responsive prostate cancer cell line LNCaP-1F5 using ChIP-sequencing. Depletion of FoxA1 reprograms both androgen and glucocorticoid receptor recruitment and subsequent gene expression. The ChIP-seq has been performed using AR, FoxA1, GR, H3K4me2 antibodies. We have also mapped the DNaseI-hypersensitive sites (DHS) using deep sequencing.

View SamplesHeterochromatin protein 1a (HP1a) is a chromatin associated protein that has been well studied in many model organisms, such as Drosophila, where it is a determining factor for classical heterochromatin. HP1a is associated with the two histone methyltransferases SETDB1 and Su(var)3-9, which mediate H3K9 methylation marks and participate in the establishment and spreading of HP1a enriched chromatin. While HP1a is generally regarded as a factor that represses gene transcription, several reports have linked HP1a binding to active genes, and in some cases, it has been shown to stimulate transcriptional activity. To clarify the function of HP1a in transcription regulation and its association with Su(var)3-9, SETDB1 and the chromosome 4 specific protein POF, we conducted genome-wide expression studies and combined the results with available binding data in Drosophila melanogaster. The results suggested that HP1a has a repressing function on chromosome 4, where it preferentially targets non-ubiquitously expressed genes (NUEGs), and a stimulating function in pericentromeric regions. Further, we showed that the effects of SETDB1 and Su(var)3-9 are similar to HP1a, and on chromosome 4, Su(var)3-9, SETDB1 and HP1a target the same genes. In contrast, transposons are repressed by HP1a and Su(var)3-9 but are un-affected by SETDB1 and POF. In addition, we found that the binding level and expression effects of HP1a are affected by gene length. Our results indicate that genes have adapted to be properly expressed in their local chromatin environment.
HP1a, Su(var)3-9, SETDB1 and POF stimulate or repress gene expression depending on genomic position, gene length and expression pattern in Drosophila melanogaster.
