View SamplesTranscription factor FoxQ1 belongs to family of Fox transcription factors containing forkhead box (winged helix) domain. This family of proteins plays an important role in cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Expression of FoxQ1 was found in cancer cells and was associated with increased migration and invasion. Recently, elevated FoxQ1 expression was found in IL4 stimulated macrophages.
IL-4 driven transcription factor FoxQ1 is expressed by monocytes in atopic dermatitis and stimulates monocyte migration.

View SamplesFOXE3 is a lens specific transcription factor that has been associated with anterior segment ocular dysgenesis. To determine the transcriptional target(s) of FOXE3 that are indispensable for the anterior segment development, we examined the transcriptome and the proteome of cells expressing truncated FOXE3 responsible for Peters anomaly identified through linkage-coupled next-generation whole exome sequencing. We found that DNAJB1, an autophagy-associated protein, was the only candidate exhibiting differential expression in both screens. We confirmed the candidacy of DNAJB1 through chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase assays while knockdown of DNAJB1 in human lens epithelial cells resulted in mitotic arrest. Subsequently, we targeted dnajb1a in zebrafish through injection of a splice-blocking morpholino. The dnajb1a morphants exhibited underdeveloped cataractous lenses with persistent apoptotic nuclei. In conclusion, we have identified DNAJB1 as a transcriptional target of FOXE3 in a novel pathway that is crucial for development of the anterior segment of the eye. Overall design: Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK293FT) cells were transfected with the expression vector (pT-RexTM-DEST30) harboring either the wild type or the mutant (C240*) FOXE3 ORF (open reading frame). The experimental design included a total of eight biological replicates of cells expressing the wild type and eight replicates of mutant FOXE3 along with eight non-transfected controls. Cells were harvested 24-hour post-transfection and subjected to total RNA isolation for the preparation of whole transcriptome next-generation sequencing libraries. Initially, we examined the quality of transcriptome libraries on a MiSeq genome analyzer. Subsequent to confirmation of the quality, all libraries were paired-end sequenced (2 x 100 bp) using Illumina TruSeq Cluster V3 flow cell at a concentration of 13.0 pM in two separate lanes (12 bar-coded mRNA pooled libraries in each lane) on a HiSeq 2000 genome analyzer.
FOXE3 contributes to Peters anomaly through transcriptional regulation of an autophagy-associated protein termed DNAJB1.

View SamplesPurpose: Transcriptome is the entire repertoire of all transcripts present in a cell at any particular time. We undertook next-generation whole transcriptome sequencing approach to gain insight of the transcriptional landscape of the developing mouse lens. Methods: We ascertained mice lenses at six developmental time points including two embryonic (E15 and E18) and four postnatal stages (P0, P3, P6, and P9). The ocular tissue at each time point was maintained as two distinct pools serving as biological replicates for each developmental stage. The mRNA and small RNA libraries were paired-end sequenced on Illumina HiSeq 2000 and subsequently analyzed using bioinformatics tools. Results: Mapping of mRNA and small RNA libraries generated 187.56 and 154.22 million paired-end reads, respectively. We detected a total of 14,465 genes in the mouse ocular lens. Of these, 46 genes exhibited 40-fold differential expression compared to transcriptional levels at E15. Likewise, small RNA profiling identified 379 microRNAs (miRNAs) expressed in mouse lens. Of these, 49 miRNAs manifested an 8-fold or higher differential expression when compared, as above to the microRNA expression at E15. Conclusion: We report the first comprehensive profile of developing murine lens transcriptome including both mRNA and miRNA through next-generation RNA sequencing. A complete repository of the lens transcriptome of six developmental time points will be monumental in elucidating processes essential for development of the ocular lens and maintenance its transparency. Overall design: Whole transcrtiome and microRNA profilling of mouse lens using 2 embryonic (E15 and E18) and 4 postnatal stages (P0, P3, P6 and P9) in duplicates through high-throughput sequening using Illumina HiSeq2000.

View SamplesComparing WT mice to a mouse model of mental retardation, this work identifies genes which display differences in ribosome-bound mRNAs, in hippocampus CA1 pyramidal cells. These genes products are potent functional components of neuronal plasticity and hippocampus-dependent memory. Overall design: Using a triple transgenic mouse line, we immunoprecipitated the HA-Rpl22 protein to isolate and sequence ribosome-associated mRNA in CA1 pyramidal cells. Pairwise comparison of wild type and Fmr1 KO mice defined a specific gene expression profile.
