The aim of this data set is to perform a differential expression analysis between wild type eye-antennal imaginal disc and discs that are homozygous glass mutant gl[60j]. This data set is used to validate Glass target gene predictions identified by i-cisTarget on a set of conserved eye-specific genes. Overall design: RNA-seq was performed in eye-antennal imaginal discs of two D.melanogaster wild-type strains (Canton S and strain RAL-208 (Jordan et al. 2007, Ayroles et al. 2009)), representing two biological replicates; and in glass mutant (gl[60j]) discs for two technical replicates.
Comparative motif discovery combined with comparative transcriptomics yields accurate targetome and enhancer predictions.

View SamplesMHC-I overexpression in muscle biopsies is a hallmark of inflammatory myopathies.However the mechanisms of MHC-I overexpression in each disease is not well understood. Microarray analysis from MHC-I-microdissected myofibers showed a differential expression signature in each inflammatory myopathy. Innate immunity and IFN-I pathways are upregulated vs healthy controls, specifically in dermatomyositis (DM).

View SamplesGenome control is operated by transcription factors (TF) controlling their target genes by binding to promoters and enhancers. Conceptually, the interactions between TFs, their binding sites, and their functional targets are represented by gene regulatory networks (GRN). Deciphering in vivo GRNs underlying organ development in an unbiased genome-wide setting involves identifying both functional TF-gene interactions and physical TF-DNA interactions. To reverse-engineer the GRN of eye development in Drosophila, we performed RNA-seq across 72 genetic perturbations and sorted cell types, and inferred a co-expression network. Next, we derived direct TF-DNA interactions using computational motif inference, ultimately connecting 241 TFs to 5632 direct target genes through 24926 enhancers. Using this network we found network motifs, cis-regulatory codes, and new regulators of eye development. We validate the predicted target regions of Grainyhead by ChIP-seq and identify this factor as a general co-factor in the eye network, being bound to thousands of nucleosome-free regions. Overall design: RNA-seq gene expression profiling across Drosophila 3rd instar larval wild type tissues (brain, eye-antennal and wing discs), specific cell types from the eye-antennal disc, sorted by FACS, and genetic perturbations (TF mutants, TF over-expression, and TF RNAi knockdown).

View SamplesCoenzyme Q10 deficiency syndrome includes a clinically heterogeneous group of mitochondrial diseases characterized by low content of CoQ10 in tissues. The only currently available treatment is supplementation with CoQ10, which improves the clinical phenotype in some patients but does not reverse established damage. We analyzed the transcriptome profiles of fibroblasts from different patients irrespective of the genetic origin of the disease. These cells showed a survival genetic profile apt at maintaining growth and undifferentiated phenotype, promoting anti-apoptotic pathways, and favoring bioenergetics supported by glycolysis and low lipid metabolism. WE conclude that the mitochondrial dysfunction caused byCoQ10 deficiency induces a stable survival adaptation of somatic cells from patients.

View SamplesWe analyzed the changes in the spinal cord transcriptome after a spinal cord contusion injury and MSC or OEC transplantation. The cells were injected immediately or 7 days after the injury. The mRNA of the spinal cord injured segment was extracted and analyzed by microarray at 2 and 7 days after cell grafting.

View SamplesBasilar papillae (i.e.auditory epithelia) were isolated from 4-day-old chickens and sectioned into low, middle, and high frequency segments. RNA was isolated from each segment separately, amplified using a two-cycle approach, biotinylated, and hybridized to Affymetrix chicken whole-genome arrays.

View SamplesThe present study reports an unbiased analysis of the cytotoxic T cell serine-threonine phosphoproteome using high resolution mass spectrometry. Approximately 2,000 phosphorylations were identified in CTLs of which approximately 450 were controlled by TCR signaling. A significantly overrepresented group of molecules identified in the phosphoproteomic screen were transcription activators, co-repressors and chromatin regulators. A focus on the chromatin regulators revealed that CTLs have high expression of the histone deacetylase HDAC7 but continually phosphorylate and export this transcriptional repressor from the nucleus. HDAC7 dephosphorylation results in its nuclear accumulation and suppressed expression of genes encoding key cytokines, cytokine receptors and adhesion molecules that determine CTL function. The screening of the CTL phosphoproteome thus reveals intrinsic pathways of serine-threonine phosphorylation that target chromatin regulators in CTLs and determine the CTL functional program. We used Affymetrix microarray analysis to explore the molecular basis for the role of HDAC7 in CTLs and the impact of GFP-HDAC7 phosphorylation deficient mutant expression on the CTL transcriptional profile.
