Isogenic UPF1+ or upf1- yeast strains were treated with 10 ug/ml thiolutin to inhibit global transcription. Targets were obtained from 16 time points: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60 minutes after transcription inhibition. Three biological replicates of each were generated and the expression profiles were determined using Affymetrix YG-S98 arrays. Comparisons between the sample groups allow the identification of genes with differential expression over time between UPF1+ and upf1-.

View SamplesTransfer RNA (tRNA) modifications enhance the efficiency, specificity and fidelity of translation in all organisms. The anticodon modification mcm5s2U34 is required for normal growth and stress resistance in yeast; mutants lacking this modification have numerous phenotypes. Mutations in the homologous human genes are linked to neurological disease. The yeast phenotypes can be ameliorated by overexpression of specific tRNAs, suggesting that the modifications are necessary for efficient translation of specific codons. We determined the in vivo ribosome distributions at single codon resolution in yeast strains lacking mcm5s2U. We found accumulations at AAA, CAA, and GAA codons, suggesting that translation is slow when these codons are in the ribosomal A site, but these changes appeared too small to affect protein output. Instead, we observed activation of the GCN4-mediated stress response by a non- canonical pathway. Thus, loss of mcm5s2U causes global effects on gene expression due to perturbation of cellular signaling. Overall design: WT yeast and mutants lacking anticodon tRNA modifications were grown in YPD, and subjected to ribosome footprint profiling (ribo-seq) and RNA-seq of poly-A selected RNA. Dataset contains biological replicates for WT, ?ncs6 and ?uba4. Technical replicates were also performed for all RNA-seq datasets (using a different poly-A selection method).

The hybrid mouse diversity panel is comprised of classical inbred and recombinant inbred wild type mice. The RMA values of genes were used for genome wide association as described in Bennett et al Genome Research 2010. These data are used to identify candidate genes at loci associated with obesity and dietary responsiveness.

View SamplesDnmt2 genes are highly conserved tRNA methyltransferases with biological roles in cellular stress responses. Dnmt2 has recently been implicated in transposon silencing in Drosophila but the exact molecular mechanisms are unclear. Adult Dnmt2 mutants were heat shocked and RNA sequencing was performed on visible high-molecular weight RNAs to determine the identity of up-regulated transposons. Dnmt2 mutants accumulated almost all families of transposons after heat shock, indicating a general mis-regulation of transposon silencing in Dnmt2 mutants during the stress response. Overall design: one sample, excised, electroeluted and pooled RNA of different molecular weight, Dnmt2 mutant during recovery from a single heat shock

View SamplesSilymarin (SM) is a popular botanical medicine with purported liver protective effects. SM displays multiple effects in animal models and in cell culture including prevention of liver disease, reduction of inflammation, oxidative stress, and proliferation. Despite a plethora of data indicating that SM impinges on multiple cellular signaling pathways important in inflammation and disease, no unifying mechanisms have been forwarded. To define how SM elicits so many biological effects, the current study presents the first comprehensive transcriptional profiling study of human hepatoma cells treated with SM. The intention of the study was to focus on the early transcriptional events that are associated with SM-induced inhibition of proliferation and inflammation. Collectively, the data demonstrate that SM causes a rapid transcriptional reprogramming of cells that initially manifests as energy stress and slowing of cellular metabolism, leading to inhibition of cell growth and inflammation.
