View SamplesCuticular wax is a major composition of plant surface cuticle, which exerts crucial functions in optimizing plant growth. Histone acetylation regulates gene expression of diverse biological processes, but little is known about its role in cuticular wax synthesis. Here we observed that mutation of Arabidopsis histone acetyltransferase GCN5 gene impaired stem cuticular wax accumulation. Furthermore, three target genes of GCN5 (CER3, CER26 and CER1-L1) were identified by RNA-Seq and ChIP assays. Consistently, H3K9/14 acetylation levels in promoter regions of CER3, CER26 and CER1-L1 were significantly decreased in gcn5 as compared to wild type. Notably, overexpression of CER3 in the gcn5 mutant restored the stem cuticular wax accumulation. Collectively, these data demonstrate that Arabidopsis GCN5 is involved in stem cuticular wax accumulation by modulating CER3 expression via H3K9/14 acetylation, which present evidence that histone acetylation plays an important role in cuticular wax biosynthesis

View SamplesGastric cancers account for the fourth most frequent cancer death worldwide. Although many differential gene expression profiles are reported for gastric cancers, their variation at the post-transcriptional level has not been provided yet. In this study, we compared the gene expressions of normal stomach vs. stomach cancer in an exon-wise manner and compared alternatively spliced transcripts. The RNA from normal and cancer tissues of gastric cancer patients were subjected to Exon 1.0 ST microarrays.

View SamplesRearrangements involving the NUP98 gene resulting in fusions to several partner genes occur in acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. This study demonstrates that the second FG repeat domain of the NUP98 moiety of the NUP98-HOXA9 fusion protein is important for its cell immortalization and leukemogenesis activities. We demonstrate that NUP98-HOXA9 interacts with MLL via this FG repeat domain and that, in the absence of MLL, NUP98-HOXA9-induced cell immortalization and leukemogenesis are severely inhibited. Molecular analyses indicate that MLL is important for the recruitment of NUP98-HOXA9 to the HOXA locus and for NUP98-HOXA9-induced HOXA gene expression. Our data indicate that MLL is crucial for NUP98-HOXA9 leukemia initiation.
MLL is essential for NUP98-HOXA9-induced leukemia.
