In order to understand how these cascades function, they can be dissected into small genetic networks, each containing just a few Pol II transcribed genes, that generate specific signal-processing outcomes. Small RNA regulatory circuits involve direct regulation of a small RNA by a TF and/or direct regulation of a TF by a small RNA and have been shown to play unique roles in many organisms. Here, we will focus on small RNA regulatory circuits containing Pol II transcribed microRNAs (miRNAs). While the role of miRNA-containing regulatory circuits as modular building blocks for the function of complex networks has long been on the forefront of studies in the animal kingdom, plant studies are poised to take a lead role in this area because of their advantages in probing transcriptional and posttranscriptional control of Pol II genes. The relative simplicity of tissue- and cell-type organization, miRNA targeting, and genomic structure make the Arabidopsis thaliana plant model uniquely amenable for small RNA regulatory circuit studies in a multicellular organism. In this Review, we cover analysis, tools, and validation methods for probing the component interactions in miRNA-containing regulatory circuits. We then review the important roles that plant miRNAs are playing in these circuits and summarize methods for the identification of small genetic circuits that strongly influence plant function. We conclude by noting areas of opportunity where new plant studies are imminently needed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Filichkin, Sergei A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cumbie, Jason S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dharmawardhana, Palitha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jaiswal, Pankaj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chang, Jeff H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palusa, Saiprasad G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, A S N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mockler, Todd C</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental stresses modulate abundance and timing of alternatively spliced circadian transcripts in Arabidopsis.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Plant</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Plant</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alternative Splicing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arabidopsis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arabidopsis Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Circadian Clocks</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation, Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Introns</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nonsense Mediated mRNA Decay</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015 Feb</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">207-27</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Environmental stresses profoundly altered accumulation of nonsense mRNAs including intron-retaining (IR) transcripts in Arabidopsis.

Current approaches include DNase-seq, a technique that combines sensitivity to the nonspecific endonuclease DNase I with high throughput sequencing to identify regions of regulatory DNA on a genome-wide scale. While this method was originally developed for human cell lines, later adaptations made the processing of plant tissues possible. Challenges still remain in processing recalcitrant tissues that have low DNA content.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;By removing steps requiring the use of gel agarose plugs in DNase-seq, we were able to significantly reduce the time required to perform the protocol by at least 2&amp;nbsp;days, while also making possible the processing of difficult plant tissues. We refer to this simplified protocol as DNase I SIM (for simplified in-nucleus method). We were able to successfully create DNase-seq libraries for both leaf and root tissues in Arabidopsis using DNase I SIM.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;This protocol simplifies and facilitates generation of DNase-seq libraries from plant tissues for high resolution mapping of DNase I hypersensitive sites.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://megraw-dev.cgrb.oregonstate.edu/DNaseISIM&quot;&gt;[Link to Protocol, Additional Data, and Supplementary Materials]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cumbie, Jason S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ivanchenko, Maria G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NanoCAGE-XL and CapFilter: an approach to genome wide identification of high confidence transcription start sites.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BMC Genomics</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BMC Genomics</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arabidopsis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes, Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanotechnology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Roots</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promoter Regions, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Software</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transcription Initiation Site</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">597</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Identifying the transcription start sites (TSS) of genes is essential for characterizing promoter regions. Several protocols have been developed to capture the 5&amp;#39; end of transcripts via Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) or linker-ligation strategies such as Paired-End Analysis of Transcription Start Sites (PEAT), but often require large amounts of tissue. More recently, nanoCAGE was developed for sequencing on the Illumina GAIIx to overcome these difficulties.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Here we present the first publicly available adaptation of nanoCAGE for sequencing on recent ultra-high throughput platforms such as Illumina HiSeq-2000, and CapFilter, a computational pipeline that greatly increases confidence in TSS identification. We report excellent gene coverage, reproducibility, and precision in transcription start site discovery for samples from Arabidopsis thaliana roots.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;nanoCAGE-XL together with CapFilter allows for genome wide identification of high confidence transcription start sites in large eukaryotic genomes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://megraw-dev.cgrb.oregonstate.edu/nanocage&quot;&gt;[Link to Protocol, Additional Data, and Supplementary Materials]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://megraw-dev.cgrb.oregonstate.edu/capfilter&quot;&gt;[Link to CapFilter Software]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Filichkin, Sergei A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cumbie, Jason S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dharmawadhana, J Palitha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jaiswal, Pankaj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chang, Jeff H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palusa, Saiprasad G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, A S N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mockler, Todd C</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental Stresses Modulate Abundance and Timing of Alternatively Spliced Circadian Transcripts in Arabidopsis.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Plant</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Plant</style></alt-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014 Nov 3</style></date></pub-dates></dates><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Environmental stresses profoundly altered accumulation of nonsense mRNAs including intron retaining (IR) transcripts in Arabidopsis.

Here, we present a publicly available, large-scale transcription start site (TSS) data set in plants using a high-resolution method for analysis of 5&amp;#39; ends of mRNA transcripts. Our data set is produced using the paired-end analysis of transcription start sites (PEAT) protocol, providing millions of TSS locations from wild-type Columbia-0 Arabidopsis thaliana whole root samples. Using this data set, we grouped TSS reads into &amp;quot;TSS tag clusters&amp;quot; and categorized clusters into three spatial initiation patterns: narrow peak, broad with peak, and weak peak. We then designed a machine learning model that predicts the presence of TSS tag clusters with outstanding sensitivity and specificity for all three initiation patterns. We used this model to analyze the transcription factor binding site content of promoters exhibiting these initiation patterns. In contrast to the canonical notions of TATA-containing and more broad &amp;quot;TATA-less&amp;quot; promoters, the model shows that, in plants, the vast majority of transcription start sites are TATA free and are defined by a large compendium of known DNA sequence binding elements.

We studied miRNA deregulation in human epithelial ovarian cancer by integrative genomic approach, including miRNA microarray (n = 106), array-based comparative genomic hybridization (n = 109), cDNA microarray (n = 76), and tissue array (n = 504). miRNA expression is markedly down-regulated in malignant transformation and tumor progression. Genomic copy number loss and epigenetic silencing, respectively, may account for the down-regulation of approximately 15% and at least approximately 36% of miRNAs in advanced ovarian tumors and miRNA down-regulation contributes to a genome-wide transcriptional deregulation. Last, eight miRNAs located in the chromosome 14 miRNA cluster (Dlk1-Gtl2 domain) were identified as potential tumor suppressor genes. Therefore, our results suggest that miRNAs may offer new biomarkers and therapeutic targets in epithelial ovarian cancer.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sethupathy, Praveen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Corda, Benoit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hatzigeorgiou, Artemis G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">miRGen: a database for the study of animal microRNA genomic organization and function.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nucleic Acids Res</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nucleic Acids Res.</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Animals</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Data Interpretation, Statistical</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Databases, Nucleic Acid</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Internet</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mice</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MicroRNAs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rats</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">User-Computer Interface</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007 Jan</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">35</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">D149-55</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;miRGen is an integrated database of (i) positional relationships between animal miRNAs and genomic annotation sets and (ii) animal miRNA targets according to combinations of widely used target prediction programs. A major goal of the database is the study of the relationship between miRNA genomic organization and miRNA function. This is made possible by three integrated and user friendly interfaces. The Genomics interface allows the user to explore where whole-genome collections of miRNAs are located with respect to UCSC genome browser annotation sets such as Known Genes, Refseq Genes, Genscan predicted genes, CpG islands and pseudogenes. These miRNAs are connected through the Targets interface to their experimentally supported target genes from TarBase, as well as computationally predicted target genes from optimized intersections and unions of several widely used mammalian target prediction programs. Finally, the Clusters interface provides predicted miRNA clusters at any given inter-miRNA distance and provides specific functional information on the targets of miRNAs within each cluster. All of these unique features of miRGen are designed to facilitate investigations into miRNA genomic organization, co-transcription and targeting. miRGen can be freely accessed at http://www.diana.pcbi.upenn.edu/miRGen.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Database issue</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhang, Lin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huang, Jia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yang, Nuo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Greshock, Joel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giannakakis, Antonis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liang, Shun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Naylor, Tara L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barchetti, Andrea</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ward, Michelle R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yao, George</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Medina, Angelica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">O'brien-Jenkins, Ann</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Katsaros, Dionyssios</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hatzigeorgiou, Artemis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gimotty, Phyllis A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Weber, Barbara L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coukos, George</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microRNAs exhibit high frequency genomic alterations in human cancer.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proc.

To determine genomewide miRNA DNA copy number abnormalities in cancer, 283 known human miRNA genes were analyzed by high-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization in 227 human ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma specimens. A high proportion of genomic loci containing miRNA genes exhibited DNA copy number alterations in ovarian cancer (37.1%), breast cancer (72.8%), and melanoma (85.9%), where copy number alterations observed in &amp;gt;15% tumors were considered significant for each miRNA gene. We identified 41 miRNA genes with gene copy number changes that were shared among the three cancer types (26 with gains and 15 with losses) as well as miRNA genes with copy number changes that were unique to each tumor type. Importantly, we show that miRNA copy changes correlate with miRNA expression. Finally, we identified high frequency copy number abnormalities of Dicer1, Argonaute2, and other miRNA-associated genes in breast and ovarian cancer as well as melanoma. These findings support the notion that copy number alterations of miRNAs and their regulatory genes are highly prevalent in cancer and may account partly for the frequent miRNA gene deregulation reported in several tumor types.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24</style></issue></record></records></xml>
