Description
Human brain structure and size requires regulated division of neural stem cells (NSCs). NSCs undergo precise divisions to self-renew and to produce intermediate neural progenitors (INPs) and neurons. The factors that regulate NSC divisions remain poorly understood, as do mechanistic explanations of how aberrant NSC division causes reduced brain size, as seen in microcephaly. Here we demonstrate that Magoh, a component of the core exon junction complex (EJC) that binds spliced RNA, controls cerebral cortical size by regulating NSC division. Magoh haploinsufficiency causes microcephaly due to INP depletion, neuronal apoptosis, and improper mitotic spindle orientation. Defective mitosis underlies these phenotypes as depletion of EJC components disrupts mitotic spindle integrity, chromosome number and genomic stability. We show that an essential function of Magoh is to regulate expression of the human microcephaly protein, LIS1, and that Lis1 addition rescues neurogenesis defects caused by Magoh knockdown, thus providing a genetic explanation for the microcephaly. This study uncovers new requirements for the EJC in brain development, NSC maintenance, mitosis and chromosome stability, thus implicating this complex in the pathogenesis of microcephaly.

Illumina Genome Analyzer II, Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array (mogene20st)
Description
We performed ChIP-Seq analysis of SOX10, histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) and H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in melanocytes to profile the genomic binding sites of SOX10 and the chromatin landscape. In parallel, we generated Sox10 haploinsufficient cell lines using gene knockout approaches and conducted microarray gene expression analysis to identify functional gene targets of SOX10 transcriptional regulation in melanocytes. We demonstrate that SOX10 predominantly engages open chromatin, binds to melanocyte enhancer elements and plays a central role in transcriptional activation and repression of functionally distinct classes of genes. Furthermore, we identified cis-regulatory sequence motifs of putative co-regulatory transcription factors that define SOX10-activated and SOX10-repressed target genes. Our results uncover novel mechanisms and roles of SOX10 in global transcriptional regulation of diverse regulatory pathways in the melanocyte lineage.

Description
Obesity-associated metabolic complications are generally considered to emerge from abnormalities in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, whereas the status of protein metabolism is not well studied. Here, we performed comparative polysome and associated transcriptional profiling analyses to study the dynamics and functional implications of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein synthesis in the mouse liver under conditions of obesity and nutrient deprivation.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) exists in two isoforms, RI and RII, which distinguish the PKA isozymes, type I (PKA-I) and type II (PKA-II). Evidence obtained from a variety of different experimental approaches has shown that the relative levels of type I and type II PKA in cells can play a major role in determining the balance between cell growth and differentiation. RI transfected cells exhibit hyper-proliferative growth and RII transfected cells revert to a relatively quiescent state. Profiling by microarray revealed equally profound changes in gene expression between RI, RII, and parental OVCAR cells.

- Affymetrix C. elegans Genome Array (celegans)
Description
In Caenorhabditis elegans, VA and VB motor neurons arise as lineal sisters but synapse with different interneurons to regulate locomotion. VA-specific inputs are defined by the UNC-4 homeoprotein and its transcriptional corepressor, UNC-37/Groucho, which function in the VAs to block the creation of chemical synapses and gap junctions with interneurons normally reserved for VBs. To reveal downstream genes that control this choice, we have employed a cell-specific microarray strategy that has now identified unc-4-regulated transcripts. One of these genes, ceh-12, a member of the HB9 family of homeoproteins, is normally restricted to VBs. We show that expression of CEH-12/HB9 in VA motor neurons in unc-4 mutants imposes VB-type inputs. Thus, this work reveals a developmental switch in which motor neuron input is defined by differential expression of transcription factors that select alternative presynaptic partners. The conservation of UNC-4, HB9, and Groucho expression in the vertebrate motor circuit argues that similar mechanisms may regulate synaptic specificity in the spinal cord.
