Chromatin modifying activities for construction of appropriate epigenetic landscapes by polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) play an essential role in development and tumorigenesis. However, the spatiotemporal mechanisms by which PRC2 achieves diverse epigenomes for specific tissue or cellular contexts remain poorly understood. Here, we discovered that LATS2 knockout causes dysregulation of PRC2 and subsequent transcriptome changes for differentiation in both mouse and human cells. LATS2 depletion dependent dysregulation of PRC2 also effects H3K4me3 and forms negative feedback loop for maintenance of PRC2. Further analyses reveal that LATS2 on chromatin binds to EZH2 and LATS2 has ability to phosphorylate PRC2 in vitro. These LATS2 dependent H3K27me3 targets are highly induced during neurogenesis, and statistical analysis of glioblastoma multiforme reveals that LATS2-high cases show more dedifferentiated transcriptome and poor prognosis with silencing of H3K27me3 targets. These observations suggest that LATS2-mediated epigenome coordination is pivotal for development and disease, including cancer. Overall design: mRNA of LATS2 KO HeLa-S3 cells rescued by empty vector, wild-type LATS2 or kinase-dead LATS2 were subjected to deep sequencing profiling using Illumina HiSeq 2500

View SamplesApc(D716) mutant mice develop benign intestinal adenoma, while Apc(D716) and p53 R270H compound mutant mice develop invasive adenocarcinoma in the intestine. We examined expression profile of tumor-derived organoids using Apc(D716), Apc(D716) p53 Null, Apc(D716) p53 R270H mutant mice by RNA sequencing, and identified mutant p53-induced gene set. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from Apc(D716) p53(+/+) tumor organoids, Apc(D716) p53(flox/flox) tumor organoids, and Apc(D716) p53(M/M) tumor organoids. For each genotype, two mice were used and organoids were prepared independently. p53(flox) allele is null mutation, whereas p53(M) allele carrys R270H mutation. We used Illumina HiSeq 2500, and examined expression profiles.

View SamplesMediator complex has been known as pivotal regulator of RNA polymerase II. Mediator complex has two CDK subunits in vertebrates, named CDK8 and CDK19. To elucidate functional difference between CDK8 and CDK19 in human cell, we employ siRNA mediate knockdown assay using HeLa S3 cell line. According to this assay these CDKs possess highly redundancy in HeLa S3 cell transcription regulation mechanism but in several genes, each CDK shows gene specific regulatory function.

View SamplesWe found that CFIm68, a mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation factor implicated for alternative polyadenylation site choice, was co-purified with Thoc5, a component of human THO/TREX. Microarray analysis using human HeLa cells reveals knockdown of Thoc5 affects the expression of a subset of non-heat shock genes. Notably, depletion of Thoc5 attenuated the expression of the mRNAs polyadenylated at distal, but not proximal, polyadenylation sites, which phenocopied the depletion of CFIm68.
