Description
The Caenorhabditis elegans oxidative stress response transcription factor, SKN-1, is essential for the maintenance of redox homeostasis and is a functional ortholog of the Nrf family of transcription factors. The numerous levels of regulation that govern these transcription factors underscore their importance. Here, we add a thioredoxin, encoded by trx-1, to the expansive list of SKN-1 regulators. We report that loss of trx-1 promotes nuclear localization of intestinal SKN-1 in a redox-independent, cell non-autonomous fashion from the ASJ neurons. Furthermore, this regulation is not general to the thioredoxin family, as two other C. elegans thioredoxins TRX-2 and TRX-3 do not play a role in this process. Moreover, TRX-1-dependent regulation requires signaling from the p38 MAPK signaling pathway. However, while TRX-1 regulates SKN-1 nuclear localization, SKN-1 transcriptional activity remains largely unaffected. Interestingly, RNA-Seq revealed that loss of trx-1 elicits a general, organism-wide down-regulation of several classes of genes; those encoding for collagens and lipid transport and localization being most prevalent. However, one prominent lipase-related gene, lips-6, is highly up regulated upon loss of trx-1 in a skn-1-dependent manner. Together, these results uncover a novel role for a thioredoxin in regulating intestinal SKN-1 nuclear localization in a cell non-autonomous manner, thereby contributing to the understanding of the processes involved in maintaining redox homeostasis throughout an organism. Overall design: Four samples were analyzed: Two nematode strains were analyzed, each under non-stressed and stressed (10mM NaAs) conditions

Description
RNAseq analysis of human bone marrow derived stromal cells (MSCs) treated for 24 hours with or wihout 10ng/ml Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (FGF2) MSCs were derived from 4 different healthy donors. Cells were expanded to passage 3-4. Then cells were treated with FGF-2. 24 hours later, total RNA was extracted (total 8 samples). Overall design: RNA was submitted to BGI Americas for RNAseq. Here, QC was performed using Agilent 2100. All samples had a RIN above 8.0. For preparation for library, mRNA was enriched by using the oligo (dT) magnetic beads. mRNA was enriched by using the oligo (dT) magnetic beads. mRNA was fragmented into short fragments (about 200bp) using a fragmentation buffer. Then the first strand of cDNA was synthesized by random hexamer-primer using the mRNA fragments as templates. Buffer, dNTSPs, RNase H and DNA polymerase I were added to synthesize the second strand. The double strand cDNA was purified with QiaQuick PCR extraction kit and washed with EB buffer for end repair and base A addition. Finally, sequencing adapters were ligated to the fragments. The fragments are purified by Agarose gel electrophoresis and enriched by PCR amplification. The library products are ready for sequencing analysis via 2 sE50 lanes in Illumina HiSeqâ„¢ 2000.

Description
Analysis of p53 binding sites using multiplex enhancer reporter assays, ChIP-seq data and RNA-seq data. Transcription factors establish and maintain the specific transcriptome of a cell by binding to genomic regulatory regions, thereby regulating the transcription of their target genes. Like many transcription factors, the DNA sequence-specific binding preferences of p53 are known. However, it remains largely unclear what distinguishes functional enhancers from other bound genomic regions that have no regulatory activity. In addition, the genome is scattered with seemingly perfect recognition sequences that remain unoccupied. To disentangle the rules of genome-wide p53 binding, we employed two complementary techniques of multiplex enhancer-reporter assays, one using barcoded reporters and the other using enhancer self-transcription. We compared the activity of more than one thousand candidate p53 enhancers under loss and gain of p53 conditions and identified several hundred high-confidence p53-responsive enhancers. Strikingly, the large majority (99%) of these target enhancers can be characterized and distinguished from negative sequences by the occurrence of a single p53 binding site. By training a machine learning classifier on these data, and integrating the resulting genome-wide predictions with fifteen publicly available human p53 ChIP-seq data sets, we identified a consensus set of 1148 functional p53 binding sites in the human genome. Unexpectedly, this direct p53 cistrome is invariably used between cell types and experimental conditions, while differences between experiments can be largely attributed to indirect non-functional binding. Our data suggest that direct p53 enhancers function in a context-independent manner and do not contain obvious combinatorial complexity of binding sites for multiple transcription factors. They represent a class of unsophisticated cell-autonomous enhancers with a single binding site, distinct from complex developmental enhancers that integrate signals from multiple transcription factors. This suggests that context-dependent regulation of p53 target genes is not encoded in the p53 enhancer, but at different upstream or downstream layers of the cell''s gene regulatory network. Overall design: RNA-seq on MCF7 cells with p53 stable knockdown.
