Description
The Nanos family of RNA-binding proteins has been implicated in the specification of primordial germ cells (PGCs) in a wide range of metazoans, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. We have profiled the transcriptome of PGCs lacking the nanos homologues nos-1 and nos-2 in C. elegans using cell sorting and RNA-seq. nos-1nos-2 PGCs fail to silence hundreds of genes normally expressed in oocytes and somatic cells, a phenotype reminiscent of PGCs lacking the repressive PRC2 complex. The nos-1nos-2 phenotype depends on LIN-15B, a broadly expressed synMuvB class transcription factor known to antagonize PRC2 activity in somatic cells. LIN-15B is maternally-inherited by all embryonic cells and is down-regulated specifically in PGCs in a nos-1nos-2-dependent manner. Consistent with LIN-15B being a critical target of Nanos regulation, inactivation of maternal LIN-15B restores fertility to nos-1nos-2 mutants. These studies demonstrate a central role for Nanos in reprogramming the transcriptome of primordial germ cells away from an oocyte/somatic fate by down-regulating an antagonist of PRC2 activity. Overall design: 30 RNA-seq samples are inclued in this study. These include PGC transcriptomes from wild-type, nos-1(gv5)nos-2(RNAi), mes-2(RNAi), mes-4(RNAi), nos-1(gv5)nos-2(RNAi);lin15-B(RNAi) and biological replicates.

Description
The induction of pluripotency or trans-differentiation of one cell type to another can be accomplished with cell lineage-specific transcription factors. Here we report that repression of a single RNA binding protein PTB, which occurs during normal brain development via the action of miR-124, is sufficient to induce trans-differentiation of fibroblasts into functional neurons. Besides its traditional role in regulated splicing, we show that PTB has a previously undocumented function in the regulation of microRNA functions, suppressing or enhancing microRNA targeting by competitive binding on target mRNA or altering local RNA secondary structure. A key event during neuronal induction is the relief of PTB-mediated blockage of microRNA action on multiple components of the REST complex, thereby de-repressing a large array of neuronal genes, including miR-124 and multiple neuronal-specific transcription factors, in non-neuronal cells. This converts a negative feedback loop to a positive one to elicit cellular reprogramming to the neuronal lineage. Overall design: Examination of PTB regulated AGO2/microRNA targeting in Hela cells by CLIP-seq (two biological replicates) , paired-end RNA-seq (control and PTB knockdown) and 3’end stability RNA-seq (control and PTB knockdown)

Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
CD4+ and CD8+ T cells isolated from wild-type and Foxo1-deficient mice were analyzed by global gene expression profiling with Affymetrix array MOE 430 2.0. Results indicate Foxo1 regulates the expression of genes encoding positive regulators of T cell activation, differentiation, homeostasis, cell adhesion, cell migration, and cellular stress responses.

- Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [transcript (gene) version (huex10st)
Description
We show that high quality microarray gene expression profiles can be obtained following FACS sorting of cells using combinations of transcription factors. We use this transcription factor FACS (tfFACS) methodology to perform a genomic analysis of hESC-derived endodermal lineages marked by combinations of SOX17, GATA4, and CXCR4, and find that triple positive cells have a much stronger definitive endoderm signature than other combinations of these markers.
Publication Title
A new FACS approach isolates hESC derived endoderm using transcription factors.

Description
Memory T cells provide immunity against pathogen reinvasion, but mechanisms of their long-term maintenance is unclear. Here we show that mice with the deletion of the transcription factor Foxo1 in activated CD8+ T cells had defective secondary but not primary responses to Listeria monocytogenes infection. Compared to short-lived effector T cells, memory precursor effector T cells expressed higher amounts of Foxo1 that promoted their generation and maintenance. Gene expression profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing experiments revealed the chemokine receptor CCR7 and the transcription factor TCF1 as novel Foxo1-bound target genes with critical functions in memory T cell trafficking and transcriptional regulation. These findings demonstrate that Foxo1 is selectively incorporated into the genetic program that regulates memory but not effector CD8+ T cell responses to infection.

Description
To investigate the role of NKX3.1 in prostate differentiation, we employed transcriptome analysis of mouse seminal vesicle (from 15-month-old Nkx3.1+/+ mice); mouse prostate (from 4-month-old Nkx3.1+/+ and Nkx3.1-/- mice); human prostate cells (RWPE1 cells engineered with empty vector (altered pTRIPZ), NKX3.1 wild type over-expression, and NKX3.1 (T164A) mutant over-expression); and tissue recombinants (generated from combining engineered mouse epithelial cells (seminal vesicle epithelial cells or prostate epithelial cells from 2-month-old mice) and rat UGS mesenchymal cells). Mouse tissue or human cells were snap frozen for subsequent molecular analysis.
