Affymetrix Yeast Genome 2.0 Array (yeast2)
Description
Cells that have been pre-exposed to mild stress (priming stress) acquire transient resistance to subsequent severe stress even under different combinations of stresses. This phenomenon is called cross-tolerance. Although it has been reported that cross-tolerance occurs in many organisms, the molecular basis is not clear yet. Here, we identified slm9+ as a responsible gene for the cross-tolerance in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Slm9 is a homolog of mammalian HIRA histone chaperone. HIRA forms a conserved complex and gene disruption of other HIRA complex components, Hip1, Hip3, and Hip4, also yielded a cross-tolerance-defective phenotype, indicating that the fission yeast HIRA is involved in the cross-tolerance as a complex. We also revealed that Slm9 was recruited to the stress-responsive gene loci upon stress treatment in an Atf1-dependent manner. The expression of stress-responsive genes under stress conditions was compromised in HIRA disruptants. Consistent with this, Pol II recruitment and nucleosome eviction at these gene loci were impaired in slm9D cells. Furthermore, we found that the priming stress enhanced the expression of stress-responsive genes in wild-type cells that were exposed to the severe stress. These observations suggest that HIRA functions in stress response through transcriptional regulation.

Description
This study explored the role of the growth hormone (GH) / insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) axis on the life-long caloric restriction (CR)-associated remodeling of white adipose tissue (WAT). Adipocyte size and gene expression profiles, using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays, were analyzed in WAT of six- to seven-month old wild Wistar rats fed ad libitum (AL) or subjected to a 30% caloric restriction (CR), and heterozygous transgenic dwarf rats bearing an anti-sense GH transgene fed ad libitum (Tg). While not significant in Tg rats, adipocyte size was significantly reduced in CR rats compared with AL rats. The microarray data based on the principal component analysis demonstrated that the gene expression profile of CR rats markedly differed from the AL rats, while Tg hardly differed, suggesting that CR-associated WAT remodeling was predominantly regulated in a GH/IGF-1-independent manner. The gene cluster with the largest change induced by CR included several genes involved in lipid biosynthesis and inflammation. Moreover, many of the genes transcriptionally regulated by sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) were found in the cluster related to lipid biosynthesis. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis confirmed that the expression of SREBP-1 and its down-stream targets was particularly up-regulated in CR rats compared with SREBP-2 and its down-stream targets. Our findings suggest that SREBP-1 is a major transcription factor in CR-associated remodeling of WAT, and might be one of the key regulators of the anti-aging and pro-longevity effects of CR.

Description
Trans-splicing is a post-transcriptional event that joins exons from separate pre-mRNAs. Detection of trans-splicing is usually severely hampered by experimental artifacts and genetic rearrangements. Here, we develop a new computational pipeline, TSscan, which integrates different types of high-throughput long-/short-read transcriptome sequencing of different human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines to effectively minimize false positives while detecting trans-splicing. Combining TSscan screening with multiple experimental validation steps revealed that most chimeric RNA products were platform-dependent experimental artifacts of RNA sequencing. We successfully identified and confirmed four trans-spliced RNAs, including the first reported trans-spliced large intergenic noncoding RNA ("tsRMST"). We showed that these trans-spliced RNAs were all highly expressed in human pluripotent stem cells and differentially expressed during hESC differentiation. Our results further indicated that tsRMST can contribute to pluripotency maintenance of hESCs by suppressing lineage-specific gene expression through the recruitment of NANOG and the PRC2 complex factor, SUZ12. Taken together, our findings provide important insights into the role of trans-splicing in pluripotency maintenance of hESCs and help to facilitate future studies into trans-splicing, opening up this important but understudied class of post-transcriptional events for comprehensive characterization

Description
The feather follicle is a “professional” regenerative organ that undergoes natural cycling and, regeneration after wound plucking. Similar to mammalian hair follicle, dermal papilla (DP) controls feather regeneration, shape, size, and axis. Here we report gene expression profiling for feather DP at different growth stages. For growth phase, we compared gene expression of DP, the ramogenic zone of feather branching epithelium (Erz) and the mesenchymal pulp (Pp). We also compared gene expression of DP at resting phase. To characterize the feather regeneration process, we further profiled gene expression at Day-2 and Day-4 post wound. Our results provide a resource for investigating feather growth and regeneration. Overall design: Examination of gene expression in dermal papilla (DP) at growth phase and resting phase feather follicle, and during feather regeneration.
