Description
The mammalian telomere-binding protein Rap1 was found to have additional non-telomeric functions, acting as a transcriptional cofactor and a regulator of the NF-kB pathway. Here, we assess the effect of disrupting mouse Rap1 in vivo, and report on its unanticipated role in metabolic regulation and body weight homeostasis. Rap1 inhibition causes dysregulation in hepatic as well as adipose function. In addition, using a separation-of-function allele, we show that the metabolic function of Rap1 is independent of its recruitment to TTAGGG binding elements found at telomeres, and at other interstitial loci.

Description
We found that PI3K inhibition increased the expression of stem cell markers in trophoblast stem cells (TSCs). To better understand the PI3K inhibited cells, we compared untreated TSCs with cells treated with PI3K inhibitor ZSTK474 for 3h, 6h and 3 days. Overall design: Untreated TSCs, TSCs treated with 200nM ZSTK474 for 3h, 6h, and 3 days.

Description
Translational profiling methodologies enable the systematic characterization of cell types in complex tissues such as the mammalian brain, where neuronal isolation is exceptionally difficult. Here, we report a versatile strategy to profile CNS cell types in a spatiotemporally-restricted fashion by engineering a Cre-dependent adeno-associated virus expressing an EGFP-tagged ribosomal protein (AAV-FLEX-EGFPL10a) to access translating mRNAs by TRAP. We demonstrate the utility of this AAV to target a variety of genetically and anatomically defined neural populations expressing Cre recombinase and illustrate the ability of this viral TRAP (vTRAP) approach to recapitulate the molecular profiles obtained by bacTRAP in corticothalamic neurons across multiple serotypes. Furthermore, spatially restricting AAV injections enabled the elucidation of regional differences in gene expression within this cell type. Taken together, these results establish the broad applicability of the vTRAP strategy for the molecular dissection of any CNS or peripheral cell type that can be engineered to express Cre. Overall design: Polysome-bound mRNAs from TRAP IPs were compared to whole tissue mRNAs. Data was collected from MCH neurons in hypothalamus using vTRAP, cortical layer 6 Ntsr1 neurons using vTRAP, and cortical layer 6 Ntsr1 neurons using bacTRAP. We include vTRAP data from three AAV serotypes for the cortical Ntsr1 cells. We collected three replicates for IP and inputs for vTRAP experiments, while bacTRAP data was collected in duplicate.
