- Illumina HumanHT-12 V4.0 expression beadchip
Description
The transcription-related DNA damage response was analyzed on a genome-wide scale with great spatial and temporal resolution. Upon UV irradiation, a slowdown of transcript elongation and restriction of gene activity to the promoter-proximal ~25 kilobases is observed. This is associated with a shift from expression of long mRNAs to shorter isoforms, incorporating alternative last exons (ALEs) that are more proximal to the transcription start site. Notably, this includes a shift from a protein-coding ASCC3 mRNA to a shorter transcript isoform of which the RNA, rather than an encoded protein, is critical for the eventual recovery of transcription. The protein-coding ASCC3 isoform counteracts the function of the non-coding isoform, indicating crosstalk between them. Thus, the ASCC3 gene expresses both coding and noncoding transcript isoforms with opposite effects on transcription recovery after UV-induced DNA damage

Thus, the ASCC3 gene expresses both coding and noncoding transcript isoforms with opposite effects on transcription recovery after UV-induced DNA damage. Overall design: Cells were treated with DRB (100 µM, 3.5 hrs), followed by UVC irradiation (15 J/m2) or left untreated. Cells were washed with PBS to remove DRB immediately after UV irradiation and incubated for 10, 25 or 40 minutes, followed by cell lysis and nuclei isolation. Nuclei were processed for GRO-Seq.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Missense mutations in the gene for the ubiquitously expressed superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) are one of the causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the most common adult onset motor neuron disease in humans killing selectively large motor neurons. Mice and rats overexpressing mutant SOD1 develop an adult onset neurodegenerative disease with hindlimb-paralysis and subsequent death similar to the human condition. In order to analyze the effects of mutant SOD1 expression onto the most affected cell-type in ALS, a small subpopulation of spinal cord cells, we propose to use laser microdissection to isolate mouse lumbar motor neurons and to assess the changes onto the mRNA expression profile using Affymetrix GeneChips compared to control animals. While two studies applying a genomic approach on the ALS mouse models used the entire spinal cord, contributions of changes to motor neurons were masked by the inflammatory effects of mutant SOD1 and the much larger population of non-motor neuronal cells. What is therefore needed is a cell-type specific expression profile that could reveal dysregulations in the transcriptome of the affected motor neurons.

Description
Depolarization of resting membrane potential in select cells in Xenopus larvae induces striking hyperpigmentation due to dysregulation of melanocytes. Here, we show that this non-cell-autonomous process is mediated by cAMP, CREB, and the transcription factors Sox10 and Slug. Our microarray analysis reveals specific transcripts responsive to Vmem levels within a few hours of depolarization, and a set of 517 transcripts whose expression remains altered during the full hyperpigmented phenotype over a week later, linking instructor cell-depolarization to a range of developmental processes and disease states. We also show that voltage-dependent conversion of melanocytes involves the MSH-secreting melanotrope cells of the pituitary, and formulate a model for the molecular pathway linking the bioelectric properties of melanocyte cells microenvironment in vivo to the genetic and cellular changes induced in this melanoma-like phenotype. Remarkably, the phenotype is all-or-none: each individual animal either undergoes melanocyte conversion or not, as a whole. This group decision is stochastic, resulting in varying percentages of hyperpigmented individuals for a given experimental treatment. To understand the stochasticity and dynamic properties of this complex signaling system, we developed a novel computational method that automates the reverse-engineering of stochastic dynamic signaling models. We used this method to discover a network model that quantitatively explained our complex dataset, and even made correct predictions for new experiments that we validated in vivo. Taken together, these data (1) reveal new molecular details about a novel trigger of metastatic-like developmental cell behavior in vivo, (2) suggest new targets for biomedical intervention, and (3) demonstrate proof-of-principle of a computational method for understanding stochastic decision-making by cells during embryonic development and metastasis.
