Sumoylation coordinates the repression of inflammatory and anti-viral gene-expression programs during innate sensing.

View SamplesBone marrow derived dendritic cells were generated from Ubc9[fl;-] and Ubc9[+/+] mice. After in vitro derivation in the presence of GM-CSF, dendritic cells were treated with tamoxifen for four days to cause CreERT2 activation, and induce Ubc9 floxed allele deletion. This allowed comparative transcriptomic analysis of Ubc9[+/+] and Ubc9[-/-] dendritic cells unstimulated or stimulated with 10ng/ml LPS for one hour and six hours.

View SamplesWe performed single-cell RNA-seq on CD14+ monocytes isolated from the blood of healthy donors. Using the 10x chromium technology, we analyzed 425 and 431 cells from 2 individual donors. Overall design: Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) were prepared by centrifugation on a Ficoll gradient. Blood CD14+ monocytes were isolated from healthy donors' PBMC by positive selection using magnetic beads. Monocytes were 93-95% CD14+CD16- as assessed by flow cytometry. Cellular suspensions (1700 cells) were loaded on a 10X Chromium instrument (10X Genomics) according to manufacturer's protocol.

View SamplesHemes are essential but potentially cytotoxic cofactors that participate in critical and diverse biological processes. Although the pathway and intermediates for heme biosynthesis have been well defined, the intracellular networks which mediate heme trafficking remain unknown. Caenorhabditis elegans and related helminths are natural heme auxotrophs requiring environmental heme for growth and development. We exploited this auxotrophy to identify HRG-1 and HRG-4 in C. elegans and show that they are essential for heme homeostasis and normal vertebrate development. We demonstrate that heme deficiency upregulates expression of hrg-4 and its evolutionarily conserved paralog hrg-1. Depletion of either HRG-1 or HRG-4 in worms results in disruption of organismal heme sensing and abnormal response to heme analogs. HRG-1 and HRG-4 are novel transmembrane proteins that bind heme and have evolutionarily conserved functions. Transient knockdown of hrg-1 in zebrafish leads to hydrocephalus, yolk tube malformations, and, most strikingly, profound defects in erythropoiesis - phenotypes that are fully rescued by worm HRG-1. These findings reveal unanticipated and conserved pathways for cellular heme trafficking in animals that defines the paradigm for eukaryotic heme transport. Uncovering the mechanisms of heme transport in C. elegans will provide novel insights into human disorders of heme metabolism and generate unique anthelmintics to combat worm infestations.
Haem homeostasis is regulated by the conserved and concerted functions of HRG-1 proteins.

View SamplesWe performed single-cell RNA-seq on CD4 T cells isolated from the tonsils of one healthy donor. We used the 10x chromium technology. Overall design: Tonsil CD4 T cells were enriched by negative selection using magnetic beads. Cell populations (CXCR5+PD-1low T cells, CXCR5+PD-1int T cells and CXCR5+PD-1high T cells ) were further isolated by cell sorting. Cellular suspensions (3500 cells) were loaded on a 10X Chromium instrument (10X Genomics) according to manufacturer's protocol.

View SamplesThe goal of this study is to compare tumor-infiltrating antigen presenting cell populations by global transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to help further delineate sub-populations of infiltrating myeloid cells in tumor. Methods: Four tumor antigen presenting cell populations were sorted from digested B78chOVA (melanoma variant) tumors in biological triplicate Results: RNA was extracted from the 4 groups (n=3 per group) and prepared for RNAseq. Sequencing yielded ~405 million reads with an average read depth of 33.7 million reads/sample. Reads were then aligned to the mouse genome (UCSC mm10) and those that mapped uniquely to known mRNAs were used to assess differential expression.
