Description
Down syndrome (DS, trisomy 21) is associated with developmental abnormalities and increased leukemia risk. To reconcile chromatin alterations with transcriptome changes in cells with trisomy 21, we performed paired exogenous spike-in normalized RNA and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in DS models. Absolute per cell normalization unmasked global amplification of gene expression associated with trisomy 21. Overexpression of the nucleosome binding protein HMGN1 (encoded on chr21q22) recapitulated the transcriptional changes seen with triplication of a “Down syndrome critical region” on distal chromosome 21. Absolute exogenous normalized ChIP-seq (ChIP-Rx) also revealed a global increase in histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation caused by HMGN1. Genes most amplified downstream of HMGN1 were enriched for tumor- and developmental stage-specific programs of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia dependent on the cellular context. These data offer a mechanistic explanation for DS transcriptional patterns, and suggest that further study of HMGN1 and RNA amplification in diverse DS phenotypes is warranted. Overall design: SLAM-seq in NALM6 human pre-B cells with engineered HMGN1 overexpression

Description
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play a fundamental role in cancer progression. However, in mice, limited blood volume and the rarity of CTCs in the bloodstream preclude longitudinal, in-depth studies of these cells using existing liquid biopsy techniques. Here, we present an optofluidic system that continuously collects fluorescently-labeled CTCs from a genetically-engineered mouse model for several hours per day over multiple days or weeks. The system is based on a microfluidic cell-sorting chip connected serially to an un-anesthetized mouse via an implanted arteriovenous shunt. Pneumatically-controlled microfluidic valves capture CTCs as they flow through the device and CTC-depleted blood is returned back to the mouse via the shunt. To demonstrate the utility of our system, we profile CTCs isolated longitudinally from animals over a four-day treatment with the BET inhibitor JQ1 using single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) and show that our approach eliminates potential biases driven by inter-mouse heterogeneity that can occur when CTCs are collected across different mice. The CTC isolation and sorting technology presented here provides a research tool to help reveal details of how CTCs change over time, allowing studies to credential changes in CTCs as biomarkers of drug response and facilitating future studies to understand the role of CTCs in metastasis.

Description
p63 mutations have been associated with several human hereditary disorders characterized by ectodermal dysplasia such as EEC syndrome, ADULT syndrome and AEC syndrome . The location and functional effects of the mutations that underlie these syndromes reveal a striking genotype-phenotype correlation. Unlike EEC and ADULT that result from missense mutations in the DNA-binding domain of p63, AEC is solely caused by missense mutations in the SAM domain of p63. We report a study on the TAp63a isoform, the first to be expressed during development of the embryonic epithelia, and on its naturally occurring Q540L mutant derived from an AEC patient. To assess the effects of the Q540L mutation, we generated stable cell lines expressing TAp63a wt, DeltaNp63 alpha or the TAp63 alpha-Q540L mutant protein and used them to systematically compare the cell growth regulatory activity of the mutant and wt p63 proteins and to generate, by microarray analysis, a comprehensive profile of differential gene expression. We found that the Q540L substitution impairs the transcriptional activity of TAp63a and causes misregulation of genes involved in the control of cell growth and epidermal differentiation.

Description
Photoreceptor disorders are collectively known as retinal degeneration (RD), and include retinitis pigmentosa (RP), cone-rod dystrophy and age related macular degeneration (AMD). These disorders are largely genetic in origin; individual mutations in any one of >200 genes cause RD, making mutation specific therapies prohibitively expensive. A better treatment plan, particularly for late stage disease, may involve stem cell transplants into the photoreceptor or ganglion cell layers of the retina. Stem cells from young mouse retinas can be transplanted, and can form photoreceptors in adult retinas. These cells can be grown in tissue culture, but can no longer form photoreceptors. We have used microarrays to investigate differences in gene expression between cultured retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) that have lost photoreceptor potential, postnatal day 1 (pn1) retinas and the postnatal day 5 (pn5) retinas that contain transplantable photoreceptors. We have also compared FACS sorted Rho-eGFP expressing rod photoreceptors from pn5 retinas with Rho-eGFP negative cells from the same retinas. We have identified over 300 genes upregulated in rod photoreceptor development in multiple comparisons, 37 of which have been previously identified as causative of retinal disease when mutated. It is anticipated that this research should bring us closer to growing photoreceptors in culture and therefore better treatments for RD. This dataset is also a resource for those seeking to identify novel retinopathy genes in RD patients.

Description
Insulators delimit independent transcriptional domains within genomes by constraining enhancer and silencer action. These transcriptional effects depend upon DNA recognition by insulator binding proteins that recruit partners that protect against inappropriate long range modulation of non-target promoters. Insulator binding proteins are broadly expressed during development, with largely constitutive binding to thousands of genomic sites. Yet, tissue-specific transcriptional changes result from the loss of individual insulator binding proteins. To understand the molecular basis for such effects, we are studying the classic Drosophila insulator protein Suppressor of Hairy-wing [Su(Hw)]. Genetic studies show that loss of this broadly expressed insulator protein prevents oocyte development. To determine the basis for the block in oogenesis, we coupled transcriptional analyses in su(Hw) mutant ovaries with genome-wide definition of Su(Hw) binding in this tissue. These studies identified 71 direct targets of Su(Hw) regulation, with nearly 70% of these genes showing increased RNA accumulation when Su(Hw) is lost. Surprisingly, derepressed Su(Hw) target genes correspond to genes normally highly expressed in neural tissues, suggesting that Su(Hw) has a critical role in silencing neural genes in the ovary. Support for this postulate was obtained by genetic studies. We found that oocyte production was restored in su(Hw) mutant females that carry a deletion of one allele of the elav family RNA binding protein 9 (Rbp9) gene. These su(Hw) null oocytes can be fertilized, with evidence that embryos lacking Su(Hw) show compromised development. Our studies extend the known transcriptional activities of Su(Hw), indicating that Su(Hw) can function as an insulator, activator and repressor, the latter function being essential for oogenesis. These findings highlight that insulator proteins are versatile transcriptional regulatory proteins, suggesting that tissue specific contributions to transcription result from direct regulation of individual genes.
