Description
Escherichia coli possesses >65 small proteins of <50 amino acids, many of which are uncharacterized. We have identified a new small protein, MntS, involved in manganese homeostasis. Manganese is a critical micronutrient, serving as an enzyme cofactor and protecting against oxidative stress. Yet manganese is toxic in excess and little is known about its function in cells. Bacteria carefully control intracellular manganese levels using the transcription regulator MntR. Before this work, mntH, which encodes a manganese importer, was the only gene known to respond to manganese via MntR repression in E. coli K12. We demonstrated that mntS is another member of the MntR manganese regulon. We also identified yebN, which encodes a putative manganese efflux pump, as the first gene positively regulated by MntR in Enterobacteria. Since MntS is expressed when manganese levels are low, causes manganese sensitivity when overexpressed, and binds manganese, we propose that MntS may be a manganese chaperone. This study reveals new factors involved in manganese regulation and metabolism and expands our knowledge of how small proteins function.

Description
To elucidate the transcriptional ‘landscape’ that regulates human lymphoid commitment during postnatal life, we used RNA sequencing to assemble the long non-coding transcriptome across human bone marrow and thymic progenitor cells spanning the earliest stages of B lymphoid and T lymphoid specification. Over 3,000 genes encoding previously unknown long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs) were revealed through the analysis of these rare populations. Lymphoid commitment was characterized by lncRNA expression patterns that were highly stage specific and were more lineage specific than those of protein-coding genes. Protein-coding genes co-expressed with neighboring lncRNA genes showed enrichment for ontologies related to lymphoid differentiation. The exquisite cell-type specificity of global lncRNA expression patterns independently revealed new developmental relationships among the earliest progenitor cells in the human bone marrow and thymus. Overall design: We performed RNA-Seq of 10 distinct cell types isolated by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). From BM, we isolated CD34+CD38neglinneg cells, a population highly enriched for HSC, as well as three lymphoid progenitor populations; LMPP (CD34+CD45RA+CD38+CD10neg CD62Lhilinneg), CLP (CD34+CD38+CD10+CD45RA+linneg ) and fully B cell committed progenitors (BCP, CD34+CD38+CD19+). From thymus we isolated three CD34+ subsets; Thy1 (CD34+CD7neg CD1aneg CD4negCD8neg), Thy2 (CD34+CD7+CD1aneg CD4negCD8neg), and Thy 3 (CD34+CD7+CD1a+CD4negCD8neg), as well as fully T cell committed populations CD4+CD8+ (Thy 4), CD3+CD4+CD8neg (Thy5) and CD3+CD4neg CD8+ (Thy6).

Description
Purpose: PKA plays a crucial role in vasopressin signaling of renal collecting duct cells. To understand regulation of mRNA expression mediated by vasopressin/PKA signaling, mRNA expression was profiled by RNA-Seq in double knockout cells (both PKA catalytic genes) generated from mouse cortical collecting duct mpkCCD cell line versus control lines with intact PKA expression. Methods: PKA double knockout (dKO) cell lines were generated from mouse cortical collecting duct mpkCCDc11 cells by CRISPR/Cas-9 genome editing method. For mRNA profiling using RNA-Seq analysis, three biological replicates of control (not mutated in PKA two catalytic subunits) cell lines and PKA double knockout cell lines were used. The reads uniquely mapped on GENCODE mouse gene set were analyzed with HOMER (v4.8) and edgeR (v3.10.5). Results and conclusion: About 40-50 million sequence reads per sample were sucessfully mapped in the mouse genome (GENCODE, GPCm38.p5). Among total transcripts of the mouse genome, 10,190 transcripts (cutoff: Counts Per Million > 4 by edgeR) were considered as genes expressed in the cell lines. In differential expression analysis by standard edgeR analysis, 354 transcripts were differentially expressed between control cell lines and PKA dKO cell lines (FDR < 0.05). We also identified nine genes that were markedly decreased in PKA dKO cell lines (log2 PKA dKO/Control < -2, FDR < 0.05) including aquaporin-2 (Aqp2) and two genes that were markedly increased in PKA dKO cell lines (log2 PKA dKO/Control > 2, FDR < 0.05). These results suggest PKA signaling is important for regulation of expression of a very limited number of genes in vasopressin-responsive renal collecting duct cells. Overall design: Total mRNA profiling of three control cell lines and three PKA double knockout cell lines generated from mpkCCDc11 cell line were carried out by standard RNA-Seq protocols with deep sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 3000.

Description
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a disease originated at the level of hematopoietic stem cell, characterized by the abnormal overproduction and accumulation, both in blood and bone marrow, of myeloid cells. Treatment options include tyrosine kinase inhibitors that inhibit BCR-ABL activity, however some patients develop resistance to these drugs and has been asociated to the stem cells

Description
We sought to determine whether Ldh activity in SCC tumors is a marker of the cell type from which these cells arise, or a key metabolic activity important for tumor initiation or progression. Here we show that genetic abrogation of Ldh enzyme activity in HFSC-mediated tumorigenesis had no effect on tumor number, time to tumor formation, tumor proliferation, epithelial to mesenchymal transition in tumors, gene expression in tumors, tumor pathology, or the immune response to tumors. Overall design: Examination of mRNA profile of five LDHA knockout mice vs five wild type (WT) mice using Illumina HiSeq2500.

Description
Most B cell lymphomas arise in the germinal center (GC), where humoral immune responses evolve from potentially oncogenic cycles of mutation, proliferation, and clonal selection. Although lymphoma gene expression diverges significantly from GC-B cells, underlying mechanisms that alter the activities of corresponding regulatory elements (REs) remain elusive. Here we define the complete pathogenic circuitry of human follicular lymphoma (FL), which activates or decommissions transcriptional circuits from normal GC-B cells and commandeers enhancers from other lineages. Moreover, independent sets of transcription factors, whose expression is deregulated in FL, target commandeered versus decommissioned REs. Our approach reveals two distinct subtypes of low-grade FL, whose pathogenic circuitries resemble GC-B or activated B cells. Remarkably, FL-altered enhancers also are enriched for sequence variants, including somatic mutations, which disrupt transcription factor binding and expression of circuit-linked genes. Thus, the pathogenic regulatory circuitry of FL reveals distinct genetic and epigenetic etiologies for GC-B transformation.
