14-3-3 proteins facilitate cytoplasmic-nuclear shuttling of transcription factors.Adipocyte differentiation requires the function of critical transcription factors to drive the development of a mature adipocyte. The aim of the study was to investigate if 14-3-3? is required for the adipogenic transcriptional program. Overall design: Examination of the transcriptome in siCon- and si14-3-3?-transfected 3T3-L1 cells undergoing differentiation at t=0, 24, and 48 hours.

View SamplesDue to inherent differences in adipcoyte size between wildtype and knockout animals, we sought to examine if the decrease in adipocyte size was due to differences in the transcriptome and more specifcially, adipogenic genes.

View SamplesPurpose: Validation of Drosophila A-to-I editing sites Methods: We collected heads of 5 day old male dAdar-/- mutant (y, Adar5G1, w)26 and wild type (w1118) flies. Poly(A)+ RNA was used to prepare RNA-seq libraries which were subsequently sequenced single-end by an Illumina GAII Results:We builded a framework to identify RNA editing events using RNA-seq data alone in Drosophila. To validate whether the identified A-to-G sites were bona fide A-to-I editing events, we performed RNA-seq for the D.melanogaster wild-type strain (w1118) and for the Adar5G1 null mutant that eliminates RNA editing. We found that our method achieved high accuracy; 98.2% of all A-to-G sites showed only adenosine in the Adar5G1 sample Conclusions: We anticipate that our method will be very effective in the future to identify RNA editing events in different species.

View SamplesPurpose: RNA editing by ADAR1 is essential for hematopoietic development. The goals of this study were firstly, to identify ADAR1-specific RNA-editing sites by indentifying A-to-I (G) mismatches in RNA-seq data compared to mm9 reference genome in wild type mice that were not edited or reduced in editing frequency in ADAR1E861A editing deficient mice. Secondly, to determine the transcriptional consequence of an absence of ADAR1-mediated A-to-I editing. Methods: Fetal liver mRNA profiles of embryonic day 12.5 wild-type (WT) and ADAR1 editing-deficient (ADAR1E861A) mice were generated by RNA sequencing, in triplicate (biological replicates), using Illumina HiSeq2000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript level with TopHat followed by Cufflinks. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. A-to-I (G) RNA editing sites were identified as previously described by Ramaswami G. et al., Nature Methods, 2012 using Burrows–Wheeler Aligner (BWA) followed by ANOVA (ANOVA). RNA editing sites were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 30 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse genome (build mm9) and identified 14,484 transcripts in the fetal livers of WT and ADAR1E861A mice with BWA. RNA-seq data had a goodness of fit (R2) of >0.94 between biological triplicates per genotype. Approximately 4.4% of the transcripts showed differential expression between the WT and ADAR1E861A fetal liver, with a LogFC=1.5 and p value <0.05. A profound upregulation of interferon stimulated genes were found to be massively upregulated (up to 11 logFC) in ADAR1E861A fetal liver compared to WT. 6,012 A-to-I RNA editing sites were identified when assessing mismatches in RNA-seq data of WT and ADAR1E861A fetal liver. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of fetal liver transcriptomes and A-to-I RNA editing sites, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. A-to-I RNA editing is the essential function of ADAR1 and is required to suppress interferon signaling to endogenous RNA. Overall design: Fetal liver mRNA profiles of E12.5 wild type (WT) and ADAR E861A mutant mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 200.

The goals of this study were firstly, to identify ADAR1-specific RNA-editing sites by indentifying A-to-I (G) RNA editing sites in wild type mice that were not edited or reduced in editing frequency in ADAR1 deficient murine erythroid cells. Secondly, to determine the transcription consequence of an absence of ADAR1-mediated A-to-I editing. Methods: Total RNA from E14.5 fetal liver of embryos with an erythroid restricted deletion of ADAR1 (KO) and littermate controls (WT), in duplicate. cDNA libraries were prepared and RNA sequenced using Illumina HiSeq2000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript level with TopHat followed by Cufflinks. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. A-to-I (G) RNA editing sites were identified as previously described by Ramaswami G. et al., Nature Methods, 2012 using Burrows–Wheeler Aligner (BWA) followed by ANOVA (ANOVA).

RNA-seq data had a goodness of fit (R2) of >0.7, p<0.0001 between biological duplicates per genotype. Clusters of hyper-editing were onserved in long, unannotated 3''UTRs of erythroid specific transcripts. A profound upregulation of interferon stimulated genes were found to be massively upregulated (up to 5 log2FC) in KO fetal liver compared to WT. 11.332 (6,894 novel) A-to-I RNA editing sites were identified when assessing mismatches in RNA-seq data. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of erythroid transcriptomes and A-to-I RNA editing sites, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. A-to-I RNA editing is the essential function of ADAR1 and is required to prevent sensing of endogenous transcripts, likely via a RIG-I like receptor mediated axis. Overall design: Fetal liver mRNA profiles of E14.5 wild type (WT) and ADAR Epor-Cre knock out mice were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

View SamplesEpithelial ovarian cancer is a very heterogeneous disease and remains the most lethal gynaecological malignancy in the Western world. Rational therapeutic approaches need to account for interpatient and intratumoral heterogeneity in treatment design. Detailed characterization of in vitro models representing the different histological and molecular subtypes is therefore imperative. Strikingly, from ~100 available ovarian cancer cell lines the origin and which subtype they represent is largely unknown. We have extensively and uniformly characterized 39 ovarian cancer cell lines (with mRNA/microRNA expression, exon sequencing, dose response curves for clinically relevant therapeutics) and obtained all available information on the clinical features and tissue of origin of the original ovarian cancer to refine the putative histological subtypes. From 39 ovarian cell lines, 14 were assigned as high-grade serous, four serous-type, one low-grade serous and 20 non-serous type. Three morphological subtypes (21 Epithelial, 7 Round, 12 Spindle) were identified that showed distinct biological and molecular characteristics, including overexpression of cell movement and migration-associated genes for the Spindle subtype. Clinical validation showed a clear association of the spindle-like tumors with metastasis, advanced stage, suboptimal debulking and poor prognosis. In addition, the morphological subtypes associated with the molecular C1-6 subtypes identified by Tothill et al. [1], Spindle clustered with C1-stromal subtype, Round with C5-mesenchymal and Epithelial with C4 subtype. We provide a uniformly generated data resource for 39 ovarian cancer cell lines, the ovarian cancer cell line panel (OCCP). This should be the basis for selecting models to develop subtype specific treatment approaches, which is very much needed to prolong the survival of ovarian cancer patients.
