Description
Protein synthesis belongs to the most energy consuming processes in the cell. Lowering oxygen tension below normal (hypoxia) causes a rapid inhibition of global mRNA translation due to the decreased availability of energy. Interestingly, subsets of mRNAs pursue active translation under such circumstances. In human fibrosarcoma cells (HT1080) exposed to prolonged hypoxia (36 h, 1% oxygen) we observed that transcripts are either increasingly or decreasingly associated with ribosomes localized at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In a global setting it turned out that only 31% of transcripts showing elevated total-RNA levels were also increasingly present at the ER in hypoxia. These genes, regulated by its expression as well as its ER-localization, belong to the gene ontologys hypoxia response, glycolysis and HIF-1 transcription factor network supporting the view of active mRNA translation at the ER during hypoxia. Interestingly, a large group of RNAs was found to be unchanged at the expression level, but translocate to the ER in hypoxia. Among these are transcripts encoding translation factors and >180 ncRNAs. In summary, we provide evidence that protein synthesis is favoured at the ER and, thus, partitioning of the transcriptome between cytoplasmic and ER associated ribosomes mediates adaptation of gene expression in hypoxia.

Description
Climate change and disease have large negative impacts on poultry production, but little is known about the interactions of responses to these stressors in chickens. Fayoumi (heat and disease resistant) and broiler (heat and disease susceptible) chicken lines were stimulated at 22 days of age, using a 2x2x2 factorial design including: breed (Fayoumi or broiler), inflammatory stimulus [lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or saline], and temperature (35°C or 25°C). Transcriptional changes in spleens were analyzed using RNA-sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500. Thirty-two individual cDNA libraries were sequenced (four per treatment) and an average of 22 million reads were generated per library. Stimulation with LPS induced more differentially expressed genes (DEG, log2 fold change = 2 and FDR = 0.05) in the broiler (N=283) than the Fayoumi (N=85), whereas heat treatment resulted in fewer DEG in broiler (N=22) compared to Fayoumi (N=107). The double stimulus of LPS+heat induced the largest numbers of changes in gene expression, for which broiler had 567 DEG and Fayoumi had 1471 DEG of which 399 were shared between breeds. Further analysis of DEG revealed pathways impacted by these stressors such as Remodelling of Epithelial Adherens Junctions due to heat stress, Granulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis due to LPS, and Hepatic Fibrosis/Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation due to LPS+heat. The genes and pathways identified provide deeper understanding of the response to the applied stressors and may serve as biomarkers for genetic selection for heat and disease tolerant chickens. Overall design: At 22 days of age, divergent chicken breeds (Fayoumi and broiler) were treated with a thermal treatment (heat stress at 35C, or thermoneutral at 25C as a control) for 3.5 hours, then stimulated subcutaneously with an inflammatory stimulus (LPS, or saline as a control) for another 3.5 hours. Chickens were euthanized and spleens were harvested. A total of 32 indivudally coded cDNA libraries were prepared using TruSeq v2 library preparation kit which selects for polyA mRNA. In this 2x2x2 full factorial design with the factors of breed, thermal treatment, and inflammatory stimulus, there were a total of 8 treatment groups. Each treatment group had a total of 4 animal biological replicates. Therefore, a total of 32 individual barcoded samples were sequenced. A total of 8 individually barcoded cDNA libraries were sequenced per lane using the HiSeq Illumina 2500, and we used 4 lanes total. Reads were mapped to Galgal 2.0.

Description
Aberrant forms of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex are associated with human disease. Loss of the Snf5 subunit of SWI/SNF is a driver mutation in pediatric rhabdoid cancers and forms aberrant sub-complexes that are not well characterized. We determined the effects of loss of Snf5 on the composition, nucleosome binding, recruitment and remodeling activities of yeast SWI/SNF. The Snf5 subunit interacts with the ATPase domain of Snf2 and forms a submodule consisting of Snf5, Swp82 and Taf14 as shown by mapping SWI/SNF subunit interactions by crosslinking-mass spectrometry and subunit deletion followed by immunoaffinity chromatography. Snf5 promoted binding of the Snf2 ATPase domain to nucleosomal DNA, enhanced its catalytic activity and facilitated nucleosome remodeling. Snf5 was required for acidic transcription factors to recruit SWI/SNF to chromatin. RNA-seq analysis suggested that both the recruitment and catalytic functions mediated by Snf5 are required for SWI/SNF regulation of gene expression. Overall design: Determining the effects of loss of Snf5 on the composition, nucleosome binding, recruitment, remodeling activities and gene expression profile of yeast SWI/SNF

Description
Background: Heat stress triggers an evolutionarily conserved set of responses in cells. The transcriptome responds to hyperthermia by altering expression of genes to adapt the cell or organism to survive the heat challenge. RNA-seq technology allows rapid identification of environmentally responsive genes on a large scale. In this study, we have used RNA -seq to identify heat stress responsive genes in the chicken male white-leghorn hepat ocellular (LMH) cell line. Result: The transcripts of 812 genes were responsive to heat stress (p <0.01) with 235 genes up- regulated and 577 down-regulated following 2.5 hours of heat stress. Among the up- regulated were genes whose products function as chaperones, along with genes aff ecting collagen synthesis and deposition, transcription factors, chromatin remodelers and genes modulating the WNT and TGF-beta pathways. Predominant among the down-regulated genes were ones that affect DNA replication and repair along with chromosom al segregation. Many of the genes identified in this study have not been previously implicated in the heat stress response. Conclusion: These data extend our understanding of the transcriptome response to heat stress. Many of the identified biological processes and pathways likely function in adapting cells and organisms to hyperthermic stress. This study may provide important guides to future efforts attempting to improve species abilities to withstand heat stress through genome wide association studies and breeding. In addition, the genes down regulated by heat stress may provide important targets for improving hyperthemic treatment in cancer patients. Overall design: Cells were grown at either control ( 37oC) or heat stress (43oC) temperatures for 2.5 hours.

Description
We used the flu mutant of Arabidopsis and a transgenic line that overexpresses the thylakoid-bound ascorbate peroxidase (tAPX) to address the interactions between different reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling pathways. The conditional flu mutant of Arabidopsis accumulates excess protochlorophyllide in the dark within chloroplast membranes that upon illumination acts as a photosensitizer and generates singlet oxygen (1O2). Immediately after the release of singlet oxygen rapid changes in nuclear gene expression occur. Distinct sets of genes were activated that were different from those induced by other reactive oxygen species, superoxide or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), suggesting that different types of active oxygen species activate distinct signaling pathways. It was not known whether the pathways operate separately or interact with each other. We have addressed this problem by modulating noninvasively the level of H2O2 in plastids by means of a transgenic line that overexpresses the thylakoid-bound ascorbate peroxidase (tAPX, line 14/2 PMID: 15165186). In the flu mutant overexpressing tAPX, the expression of most of the nuclear genes that were rapidly activated after the release of 1O2 was significantly higher in flu plants overexpressing tAPX, whereas in wild-type plants, overexpression of tAPX had only a very minor impact on nuclear gene expression. The results suggest that H2O2 antagonizes the 1O2-mediated signaling of stress responses as seen in the flu mutant. This cross-talk between H2O2- and 1O2-dependent signaling pathways might contribute to the overall stability and robustness of wild-type plants exposed to adverse environmental stress conditions.

Description
Sle1c is a sublocus of the NZM2410-derived Sle1 major susceptibility locus. We have previously shown that Sle1c contributes to lupus pathogenesis by conferring CD4+ T cell-intrinsic hyperactivation and increased susceptibility to chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that mapped to the centromeric portion of the locus. In this study, we have refined the centromeric sublocus to a 675Kb interval, termed Sle1c2. Recombinant congenic strains expressing Sle1c2 exhibited a T cell-intrinsic CD4+ T cell hyperactivation and cGVHD susceptibility, similar to mice with the parental Sle1c.
