Description
We have discovered a small subpopulation of virus-specific CD8 T-cells that sustains the T-cell response in chronic infections. These cells are defined by - and depend on - the expression of the transcription factor Tcf1 (T cell factor 1) and show key characteristics of central memory cells while lacking an effector signature. Unlike conventional memory cells, Tcf1+ T-cells display hallmarks of an “exhausted” phenotype, including the expression of certain inhibitory receptors. Overall design: Naive Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (Naive) were transferred into Vb5 recipient mice (CD45.1) prior to infection with LCMV clone 13 (c13). Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (chronic Tcf1+) and Tcf1-GFP- P14 cells (chronic Tcf1-) were flow sorted on day 28 post infection. Naive Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (Naive) were also transferred into C57BL/6 hosts (CD45.1.2) prior to infection with LCMV Armstrong (Arm). Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (memory Tcf1+) and Tcf1-GFP- P14 cells (memory Tcf1-) were flow sorted on day 28 post infection. Total RNA was extracted, cDNA libraries prepared and sequencing was performed using Illumina HiSeq 2500 technology.

Description
Here, in this study we systematically examined the patterns of DNA methylation and hydroxy-methylation with its functional implications in gene regulation for the cultured TK6 lymphoblastoid cells upon exposure to micro-gravity conditions. The results reported here indicate that simulated microgravity alters methylation patterns in a limited way and subsequently the expression of genes involved in stress response like ATF3, FBXO17, MAP3K13 and VCL in TK6 cells. Overall design: Examination of RNA-seq with 2 replicates each for 1 cell type

Description
We hypothesize that gene expression in the aging lungs of these two strains of mice are divergent thus contributing to the disparity in the phenotypes. More specifically, (1) Aging DBA/2J mice compared to aging C57BL/6 mice are known to be accelerated in their lung physiology and morphometry; (2) C57BL/6J are known to have longer natural longevity than DBA/2J mice. In order to test these hypotheses at the gene expression level, we utilized microarray analysis to examine transcriptional differences between aging lungs of both strains of mice.

Description
Memory T cells are important for protective immunity against infectious microorganisms. Such protection is achieved by cooperative action of memory T cell populations that differ in their tissue localization and functionality. We report on the identification of the fractalkine receptor CX3CR1 as marker for stratification of memory T cells with cytotoxic effector function from those with proliferative function in both, mice and man. Based on CX3CR1 and CD62L expression levels four distinct memory T cell populations can be distinguished based on their functional properties. Transcriptome and proteome profiling revealed that CX3CR1 expression was superior to CD62L to resolve memory T cell functionality and allowed determination of a core signature of memory T cells with cytotoxic effector function. This identifies a CD62Lhi CX3CR1+ memory T cell population with an identical gene signature to CD62LlowCX3CR1+ effector memory T cells. In lymph nodes, this so far unrecognized CD62LhiCX3CR1+ T cell population shows a distinct migration pattern and anatomic positioning compared to CD62LhiCX3CR1neg TCM. Furthermore, CX3CR1+ memory T cells were scarce or absent during chronic HBV, HCV and HIV infection in man and chronic LCMV infection in mice confirming the value of CX3CR1+ in understanding principles of protective immune memory. Overall design: CD8+ T cells were isolated and directly assessed. After harvesting, cells were immediately lysed in Trizol (Invitrogen) before storage at -80°C for RNA isolation.

Description
How do the transcript levels of leaf-expressed genes change in a normal day-night cycle? The interest is in genes that are regulated by the circadian clock and the diurnal component (i.e. light, metabolite changes). Plants were grown on soil in a 12/12 h light/dark rythm at 20C day and night. 5 weeks after germination the rosettes of the non-flowering plants were harvested, 15 plants per sample. Plants were harvested at 6 timepoints every 4 hours beginning with the end of the night (still in darkness).

Global gene expression analysis reveals that Med1 regulates many genes involved in energy metabolism, calcium signaling, and oxidative phosphorylation in myocardium. Overall design: RNA samples were prepared from hearts of 5 controls Med1 floxed mice (Med1fl/fl) and 5 Cre-loxP-mediated cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of Med1 (csMed1-/-) mice. RNA were pooled and subjected to RNA-seq analysis.

Description
In a cross-site study we evaluated the performance of ribosomal RNA removal kits from Illumina, Takara/Clontech, Kapa Biosystems, Lexogen, New England Biolabs and Qiagen on intact and degraded RNA samples. We found that all of the kits were capable of performing significant ribosomal depletion, though there were differences in their ease of use. All kits were able to remove ribosomal RNA to below 20% with intact RNA and identify ~14,000 protein coding genes from the Universal Human Reference RNA sample at >1FPKM. Analysis of differentially detected genes among kits suggested that transcript length may be a key factor in library production efficiency. These results provide a roadmap for labs on the strengths of each of these methods and how best to utilize them. Overall design: The Universal Human Reference RNA (Agilent) was diluted to 500 ng/ul in 200ul of RNase-free water and 3.94ul of the Spike-in RNA Variant Control E2 Mix (Lexogen) were added. The sample was split into two aliquots, one of which was then heated at 94° C for 1 hour and 27 minutes. 1ul of ERCC RNA Spike-In Mix 1 was added to both the intact and degraded samples. The final intact and degraded RNA samples were then diluted to 25 ng/uL and were distributed to each of the ten genomics core facilities (members of ABRF) for ribo-depletion and library preparation following vendor protocol. Each site prepared between one and four library types. Indices were assigned by the group to prevent overlapping among libraries. Libraries were pooled at an equimolar concentration from each kit using site-specific quantification and pooling SOPs and return each pool along with individual un-pooled libraries to the designated sequencing site. The sequencing site quantified each pool, multiplexed and sequenced over three high output paired-end 75bp runs on the Illumina NextSeq 500. contributor: The Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) DNA Sequencing Research Group (DSRG) members

Description
Signal transduction processes mediated by phosphatidyl inositol phosphates affect a broad range of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, migration and cell survival. The protein kinase AKT is one of the major effectors in this signaling network. Chronic AKT activation contributes to oncogenic transformation and tumor development. Therefore, new small drugs were designed to block AKT activity for cancer treatment.
