Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The PAR-domain basic leucine zipper (PAR bZip) transcription factors DBP, TEF, and HLF accumulate in a highly circadian manner in several peripheral tissues, including liver and kidney. Mice devoid of all three of these proteins are born at expected Mendelian ratios, but are epilepsy-prone, age at an accelerated rate and die prematurely. In the hope of identifying PAR bZip target genes whose altered expression might contribute to the high morbidity and mortality of PAR bZip triple knockout mice, we compared the liver and kidney transcriptomes of these animals to those of wild-type or heterozygous mutant mice. These experiments revealed that PAR bZip proteins control the expression of many enzymes and regulators involved in detoxification and drug metabolism, such as cytochrome P450 enzymes, carboxylesterases, and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR). Indeed, PAR bZip triple knockout mice are hypersensitive to xenobiotic compounds, and the deficiency in detoxification may contribute to their early ageing.

Description
We report a comprehensive large-scale expression profiling analysis of mammalian male germ cells undergoing mitotic growth, meiosis and gametogenesis using High Density Oligonucleotide Microarrays and highly enriched cell populations. Among 11955 rat loci investigated, 1268 were identified as differentially transcribed in germ cells at subsequent developmental stages as compared to total testis, somatic Sertoli cells as well as brain and skeletal muscle controls. The loci were organized into four expression clusters that correspond to somatic, mitotic, meiotic and post-meiotic cell types. This work provides information about expression patterns of approximately 200 genes known to be important during male germ cell development. Approximately 40 of those are included in a group of 121 transcripts for which we report germ cell expression and lack of transcription in three somatic control cell types. Moreover, we demonstrate the testicular expression and transcriptional induction in mitotic, meiotic and/or post-meiotic germ cells of 293 as yet uncharacterized transcripts some of which are likely to encode factors involved in spermatogenesis and fertility. This group also contains numerous potential germ cell specific targets for innovative contraceptives. A graphical display of the data is conveniently accessible through the GermOnline database at <a href="http://www.germonline.org" target="_blank">http://www.germonline.org</a>.

Illumina Genome Analyzer II
Description
One clear hallmark of mammalian promoters is the presence of CpG islands (CGIs) at more than two thirds of genes whereas TATA boxes are only present at a minority of promoters. Using genome-wide approaches, we show that GC content and CGIs are major promoter elements in mammalian cells, able to govern open chromatin conformation and support paused transcription. First, we define three classes of promoters with distinct transcriptional directionality and pausing properties which correlate with their GC content. We further analyze the direct influence of GC content on nucleosome positioning and depletion, and show that CGIs correlate with nucleosome depletion both in vivo and in vitro. We also show that transcription is not essential for nucleosome exclusion but influences both a weak +1 and a well-positioned nucleosome at CGI borders. Altogether our data support the idea that CGIs have become an essential feature of promoter structure defining novel regulatory properties in mammals. Overall design: Nucleosome density and positioning were studied by high-throughput sequencing of DNA previously treated with Mnase. In parallel, chIPseq for PolII and H3K27ac were performed in mouse and human with different conditions to assess a potential effect of transcription on nucleosomes properties. To investigate transcription at promoters, we analyzed together with genome-wide Pol II accumulation by ChIP-Seq, paused bidirectional transcripts associated with transcription start sites (TSS RNAs).

Description
Inhibition of ZNF768 function was achieved by conditional over expression expression of the C-terminal zinc finger of ZNF768 for 12h. For preparation of total RNA cells were resuspended in TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies) at 0.9Mio/ml and snap-frozen. After thawing RNA was extracted from 0.4ml of TriZol lysate using the direct-zol RNA Miniprep (Zymo Research, Irvine CA, USA) as described in the manufacturer's protocol. RNA was assessed for purity by UV-vis spectrometry (Nanodrop) and for integrity by Bioanalyzer (Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100, Agilent, Santa Clara USA)). RNA was of high purity (abs. 260/280 >1.9, abs 269/239>2.1) and integrity (Bioanalyzer RIN>9 ) and thus used for further processing. For production of RNA-seq libraries total RNA was DNAse treated (dsDNAse, Fermentas) and 100 ng of this RNA was processed with a strand-specific protocol (RNA-seq complete kit, NuGEN, San Carlos, USA). In brief the RNA was reverse transcribed to cDNA with a reduced set of hexamer primers, avoiding excessive representation of rRNA in the cDNA. Second strand cDNA synthesis was done in presence of dUTP. After ultrasonic fragmentation of the cDNA and end repair, Illumina-compatible adapter were ligated. Adapters contained uracil in one strand, allowing complete digestion of the second-strand derived DNA. After strand selection the libraries were amplified, assessed for correct insert size on the Agilent Bioanalyser and diluted to 10nM. Barcoded libraries were mixed in equimolar amounts and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq1500 in single-read mode with a read length of 100 b. Overall design: ZNF768-deltaN
