Differential regulation of RNA polymerase III genes during liver regeneration

Felix Naef, Philippe Jacquet, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Jonathan Aryeh Sobel, Cristian Carmeli, Olivier Martin, Irina Krier, Mauro Delorenzi, Nouria Hernandez, Bart Deplancke, Jacques Rougemont, François Mange, Laura Symul, Fabrice David, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Julien Delafontaine, Marion Leleu, Julia Catharina Cajan, Winship Herr, Kyle Gustafson, Maykel Lopes, Dominic Villeneuve, Ioannis Xenarios

Mouse liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy involves cells in the remaining tissue synchronously entering the cell division cycle. We have used this system and H3K4me3, Pol II and Pol III profiling to characterize adaptations in Pol III transcriptio ...

ZFP30 promotes adipogenesis through the KAP1-mediated activation of a retrotransposon-derived Pparg2 enhancer

Carine Delattre-Gubelmann, Didier Trono, Julien Léonard Duc, Bart Deplancke, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Marco Cassano, Michaël Imbeault, Petra Catalina Schwalie, Suk Min Jang, Riccardo Dainese, Julie Marie Russeil, Wanze Chen, Evgeniia Pankevich

Krüppel-associated box zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) constitute the largest family of mammalian transcription factors, but most remain completely uncharacterized. While initially proposed to primarily repress transposable elements, recent reports have revea ...

Transcriptional regulatory logic of the diurnal cycle in the mouse liver

Felix Naef, Jonathan Aryeh Sobel, Guillaume Rey, Irina Krier, Nouria Hernandez, Bart Deplancke, Matteo Dal Peraro, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi, Benjamin Dieter Weger

Many organisms exhibit temporal rhythms in gene expression that propel diurnal cycles in physiology. In the liver of mammals, these rhythms are controlled by transcription-translation feedback loops of the core circadian clock and by feeding-fasting cycles ...

Dissecting the brown adipogenic regulatory network using integrative genomics

Bart Deplancke, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Rachana Narendra Pradhan, Petra Catalina Schwalie, Julie Marie Russeil, Wanze Chen, Daniel Alpern, Vincent Roland Julien Gardeux, Johannes Julius Bues

Brown adipocytes regulate energy expenditure via mitochondrial uncoupling, which makes them attractive therapeutic targets to tackle obesity. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying brown adipogenesis are still poorly understood. To address this, we ...

Population Variation and Genetic Control of Modular Chromatin Architecture in Humans

David Hacker, Gilles Udin, Nouria Hernandez, Bart Deplancke, Alisa Yurovsky, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Sarah Thurnheer, Sebastian Martin Waszak

Chromatin state variation at gene regulatory elements is abundant across individuals, yet we understand little about the genetic basis of this variability. Here, we profiled several histone modifications, the transcription factor (TF) PU.1, RNA polymerase ...

Identification and removal of low-complexity sites in allele-specific analysis of ChIP-seq data

Nouria Hernandez, Bart Deplancke, Alisa Yurovsky, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Sebastian Martin Waszak

Motivation: High-throughput sequencing technologies enable the genome-wide analysis of the impact of genetic variation on molecular phenotypes at unprecedented resolution. However, although powerful, these technologies can also introduce unexpected artifac ...

Identification of the transcription factor ZEB1 as a central component of the adipogenic gene regulatory network

Gilles Udin, Didier Trono, Andrea Corsinotti, Bart Deplancke, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Sebastian Martin Waszak, Petra Catalina Schwalie

Adipose tissue is a key determinant of whole body metabolism and energy homeostasis. Unraveling the regulatory mechanisms underlying adipogenesis is therefore highly relevant from a biomedical perspective. Our current understanding of fat cell differentiat ...

A yeast one-hybrid and microfluidics-based pipeline to map mammalian gene regulatory networks

Jovan Simicevic, Carine Delattre-Gubelmann, Jean-Daniel Feuz, Antonina Iagovitina, Bart Deplancke, Alina Isakova, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Sebastian Martin Waszak

The comprehensive mapping of gene promoters and enhancers has significantly improved our understanding of how the mammalian regulatory genome is organized. An important challenge is to elucidate how these regulatory elements contribute to gene expression b ...

Coordinated Effects of Sequence Variation on DNA Binding, Chromatin Structure, and Transcription

David Hacker, Gilles Udin, Julien Bryois, Nouria Hernandez, Bart Deplancke, Alisa Yurovsky, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Sarah Thurnheer, Sebastian Martin Waszak

DNA sequence variation has been associated with quantitative changes in molecular phenotypes such as gene expression, but its impact on chromatin states is poorly characterized. To understand the interplay between chromatin and genetic control of gene regu ...

Exhaustion of tumor-specific CD8(+) T cells in metastases from melanoma patients

Nathalie Rufer, Lukas Baitsch, Bart Deplancke, Pedro Romero, Sunil Kumar Raghav

In chronic viral infections, CD8(+) T cells become functionally deficient and display multiple molecular alterations. In contrast, only little is known of self- and tumor-specific CD8(+) T cells from mice and humans. Here we determined molecular profiles o ...
