Description
We report RNA-seq data obtained from FACS-isolated live neurons at third instar larval or P14 pupal stage, and from BG3 cells. RNA from neurons with RNAi-based loss of shep or GFP control is used to construct stranded RNA-seq library. RNA from BG3 cells treated with dsRNA targeting shep or GFP is used to construct RNA-seq library. Overall design: RNA-seq data of loss-of-shep neurons and control neurons in larval and pupal stages, and from shep-depleted or control BG3 cells.

Description
Chromatin insulators are DNA-protein complexes situated throughout the genome capable of demarcating independent transcriptional domains. Previous studies point to an important role for RNA in gypsy chromatin insulator function in Drosophila; however, the identity of these putative insulator-associated RNAs is not currently known. Here we utilize RNA-immunoprecipitation and high throughput sequencing (RIP-seq) to isolate RNAs stably associated with gypsy insulator complexes. Strikingly, these RNAs correspond to specific sense-strand, spliced, and polyadenylated mRNAs, including two insulator protein transcripts. In order to assess the functional significance of these associated mRNAs independent of their coding function, we expressed untranslatable versions of these transcripts in developing flies and observed both alteration of insulator complex nuclear localization as well as improvement of enhancer-blocking activity. Together these data suggest a novel, noncoding mechanism by which certain mRNAs contribute to chromatin insulator function. Overall design: RIP-seq of insulator proteins with different library preparations and multiple biological replicates

Description
Human iPS cells derived from normal and Fragile-X fibroblasts in order to assess the capability of Fragile-X iPS cells to be used as a model for different aspects of Fragile-X syndrome. Microarry analysis used to compare global gene expression between human ES cells, the normal and the mutant iPS cells and the original fibroblasts, to demonstrate that the overall reprogramming process succeeded, and that the FX-iPS cells are fully reprogrammed cells.

Description
Carbonic anhydrase 1 (Car1), an early specific marker of the erythroid differentiation, has been used to distinguish fetal and adult erythroid cells since its production closely follows the - to -globin transition, but the molecular mechanism underlying transcriptional regulation of Car1 is unclear. Here, we show that Car1 mRNA decreases significantly when erythroid differentiation is induced in MEL cells. The Ldb1 protein complex including GATA1/SCL/LMO2 binds to the Car1 promoter in uninduced cells and reduced enrichment of the complex during differentiation correlates with loss of Car1 expression. Knockdown of Ldb1 results in a reduction of Ser2 phosphorylated RNA Pol II and Cdk9 at the Car1 promoter region, suggesting that Ldb1 is required for recruitment of Pol II as well as the transcription regulator P-TEFb to enhance elongation of Car1 transcripts. Taken together, these data show that Ldb1 forms a regulatory complex to maintain Car1 expression in erythroid cells.

Description
Interferon is effective at inducing complete remissions in patients with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), and evidence supports an immune mechanism. Here we show that the Type I Interferons (alpha and beta) regulate expression of the Interferon consensus sequence binding protein (ICSBP) in bcr-abl transformed cells and as shown previously for ICSBP, induce a vaccine-like immunoprotective effect in a murine model of bcr-abl induced leukemia. We identify the chemokines CCL6 and CCL9 as genes prominently induced by the Type I Interferons and ICSBP, and demonstrate that these immunomodulators are required for the immunoprotective effect of ICSBP expression. Insights into the role of these chemokines in the anti-leukemic response of interferons suggest new strategies for immunotherapy of CML.

Description
Approximately 2.5 mg dry Col-0 seedlings were surface sterilized and stratified for 2 days at 4degreesC in liquid media containing 1.5% sucrose (w/v) before being transferred to light with constant shaking at 100 rpm on an orbital shaker. After 7 days, the seedling clusters were subjected to the treatments for 1 hr followed by total RNA isolation using the RNAqueous kit (Ambion). Each treatment was performed in triplicate or quadruplicate. All labeling (Enzo) and hybridization (Affymetrix) procedures were performed as directed by the manufacturers. Raw probe intensities output by the Affymetrix MAS software were processed using the RMA algorithm to obtain an expression measure for each gene on each array.

Description
Engineering clinically relevant cells in vitro holds promise for regenerative medicine, but most protocols fail to faithfully recapitulate target cell properties. To address this, we developed CellNet, a network biology platform that determines whether engineered cells are equivalent to their target tissues, diagnoses aberrant gene regulatory networks, and prioritizes candidate transcriptional regulators to enhance engineered conversions. Using CellNet, we improved B cell to macrophage conversion, transcriptionally and functionally, by knocking down predicted B cell regulators. Analyzing conversion of fibroblasts to induced hepatocytes (iHeps), CellNet revealed an unexpected intestinal program regulated by the master regulator Cdx2. We observed functional engraftment of mouse colon by iHeps, thereby establishing their broader potential as endoderm progenitors and demonstrating direct conversion of fibroblasts into intestinal epithelium. Our studies illustrate how CellNet can be employed to improve direct conversion and to uncover unappreciated properties of engineered cells.

Description
Pluripotency, the capacity of embryo-derived stem cells to generate all tissues in the organism, can be induced in somatic cells by nuclear transfer into oocyte, fusion with embryonic stem cells, and for male germ cells by cell culture alone. Recently, murine fibroblasts have been reprogrammed directly to pluripotency by ectopic expression of four transcription factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and Myc) to yield induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) cells. Using the same four factors, we have derived iPS cells from human embryonic stem cell-derived fibroblasts, primary human fetal cells, and diverse cells of neonatal and adult human origin. The human iPS cells manifest the colony morphology, gene expression patterns, and epigenetic characteristics of human Embryonic Stem (hES) cells, and form well-differentiated teratomas in immune-deficient mice. These data demonstrate that defined factors can reprogram human cells to pluripotency, and establish a method whereby patient-specific cells might be established in culture.
