The authors thank all previous and present members of the department of Reproduction and Development of the Erasmus MC for helpful and stimulating discussions during the past years. We also want to thank the three anonymous reviewers for providing helpful feedback. Work in the Gribnau lab is supported by funding from the Dutch research council (NWO-VICI) and an ERC starting grant.

Kombinert DNA-RNA FISH kan være teknisk utfordrende, ettersom forholdene er egnet for DNA FISH kan være for tøffe for mindre stabile RNA-molekyler. Flere tilnærmingsmåter har blitt anvendt for å studere både DNA og RNA i samme celle, omgå behovet for samtidig inkubering med prober som detekterer både DNA og RNA. For eksempel, i en overlagring metode, blir først RNA FISH utføres, og cellene blir fotografert, og koordinatene er tatt. Deretter blir de samme slides brukt for DNA FISH, der signalet fra RNA FISH g?...

Studerer celler og vev ved hjelp av fluorescerende in situ hybridisering (FISH) har siden introduksjonen i slutten av 1970-tallet en, tillot forskerne å studere gener, kromatin organisasjon og genekspresjon på subcellulært nivå. DNA FISH er hyppig brukt i cytogenetikk, karyotyping 2, kreftdiagnostikk 3 og pre-implantasjon genetisk screening fire, og har en viktig rolle i molekylær forskning 5-6 siden det tillater påvisning av nukleinsyrer i sitt opprinnelige miljø. Enkelt celle uttrykk analyse av RNA FISH kan oppdage innfødte primære transkripsjoner og noncoding RNA transkribert fra kromosomer, og gir fordeler til andre teknikker som vurdere genuttrykk på befolkningsnivå, herunder for eksempel kvantitativ RT-PCR, genom bredt uttrykk analyse eller Northern blotting . Ved å visualisere RNA transkripsjoner som stammer direkte fra sine områder av opprinnelse, har det for eksempel værtlagt merke til at genuttrykk er stokastisk 7, og kan noen ganger være allel spesifikk åtte. Forbedringer i teknikken har engang lov påvisning og kvantifisering av enkelt mRNA molekyler i cellene 9-11. Det grunnleggende prinsipp for FISH består av hybridisering av nukleinsyrer i cellen til en nukleinsyre-probe ved hjelp av meget spesifikke Watson og Crick baseparing. Sonden kan være enten direkte eller indirekte påvist, noe som resulterer i et signal som kan mikroskopisk visualiseres. Innledende forsøk besto av radioaktivt merkede prober, som hadde ulemper basert på sikkerhet, begrensede romlig oppløsning og muligheten for å detektere bare en target i en tid av 12-14. Den videre utviklingen av ikke-radioaktive merkelapper, inkludert fluorokromer, haptener og enzymer, har tillatt den store spredningen bruk av fisk som en rutine molekylærbiologi teknikk. FISH probe kan enten være direkte merket med fluorochromes ved kjemisk binding av fluorescerende molekyler til nukleinsyresekvenser 15 og integrering av fluorescensmerkede nukleotider 16 til 19, eller sonden indirekte kan visualiseres etter integrasjon av haptener (inkludert biotin og Digoxigenin) og immunologisk påvisning av haptener ved hapten-spesifikke antistoffer konjugert til fluorescerende reporter molekyler 20-21. Sistnevnte tilnærming tillater signalforsterkning ved hjelp av flere lag av fluorescensmerkede antistoffer som anvendes for å forsterke det opprinnelige signal, og muliggjør deteksjon av RNA-arter som er uttrykt på lave nivåer. Ved å kombinere direkte og indirekte merkingsteknikker og forskjellige haptener, kan flere mål samtidig bli visualisert innenfor den samme cellen. Et av de viktigste trinn i fisk protokoller er hybridiseringen av proben til målet. Selv om i teorien, vil en sonde spesifikt binder bare til målet, i praksis er dette spesifisiteter ikke alltid oppnådd, som prober kan binde seg til homologe regioner, og hybridiseringsbetingelser vil ikke alltid være ideelt for en viss DNA region eller RNA arter. Post-hybridiserings vasker er derfor av særlig betydning, da de kan øke stringensen av FISH prosedyre, og kan forhindre ikke-spesifikk binding av fiske prober, noe som ville resultere i et høyt nivå av bakgrunnsstøy. Som RNA-molekyler blir enkelt-trådet de lett kan hybridiseres til en probe FISK. I motsetning til dette må den dobbelt-trådet DNA-molekyl først et denatureringstrinn, hvoretter en probe kan hybridisere. Dette oppnås vanligvis ved oppvarming av prøven, hvilket resulterer i denaturering av DNA. Men under disse harde forholdene, skjøre, single strandet RNA-molekyler kan være tapt. Derfor krever kombinert DNA-RNA FISH vesentlig optimalisering av forholdene, og er mer teknisk krevende sammenlignet med separat deteksjon av bare RNA eller DNA. Her har vi presenTA detaljert protokoll for kombinert, samtidig DNA-RNA FISH som har tillatt oss å studere X kromosom inaktivering (XCI) i differensierende kvinnelige mus embryonale stamceller 22-24. XCI er en avgjørende epigenetisk mekanisme for kvinnelig embryoutvikling 25, og resulterer i heterochromatinization og dermed stanse av en av de to X-kromosom i kvinnelige individer 26-27. Essential til denne prosessen er det kodende RNA Xist 28-30, som er regulert av RNF12 22-23 og Rex1 24 proteiner. Xist uttrykk blir oppregulert på fremtiden inaktive X-kromosom (Xi) under embryonal utvikling eller ved ES celledifferensiering in vitro , og kan spre seg langs X-kromosom og dermed tiltrekke kromatin remodeling enzymer som fører til transkripsjons nedleggelse av X kromosom 31. Denne spredning av Xist RNA kan visualiseres ved RNA FISH som et belegg av X chromonoe, som også er referert til som en Xist sky. Siden kvinnelige ES celler kan miste en av sine X-kromosomer grunn genomisk ustabilitet, har vi og andre næringsdrivende kombinert DNA-RNA FISH å studere XCI, for å sørge for at bare karyotypically stabile celler blir vurdert i analysen av denne viktige prosessen 22,32 -34. Som med hver molekylærbiologi teknikken flere forskjellige gode protokoller har blitt publisert, 35-38. Her presenterer vi foreliggende fremgangsmåte, som starter fra induksjon av differensiering i mus ES-celler, fiksering av celler, merking av fisk prober ved nick-translasjon, forbehandling av faste celler til å tillate permeabilization og påfølgende probe opptak, hybridisering av proben til målet, og til sist detekteringen av proben med fluorescensmerkede antistoffer. Den her presenteres protokollen lar den trofaste påvisning av Xist RNA og X-kromosomet i en periode på to dager, og det grunnleggende av denne teknikken kan trolig tilpasses othennes systemer og forskningsområder.

combined dna-rna fluorescent in situ hybridization (fish) to study x chromosome inactivation in differentiated female mouse embryonic stem cells

Fluorescerende in situ hybridisering (FISH) er en molekylær teknikk som muliggjør påvisning av nukleinsyrer i celler. DNA FISH er ofte brukt i cytogenetikk og kreftdiagnostikk, og kan oppdage avvik av genomet, som ofte har viktige kliniske implikasjoner. RNA FISH kan brukes for å påvise RNA molekyler i celler og har gitt viktig innsikt i reguleringen av genekspresjon. Kombinere DNA og RNA FISH innen samme celle er teknisk utfordrende, ettersom forholdene er egnet for DNA FISH kan være for tøffe for skjøre, single strandet RNA-molekyler. Vi her presentere en lett anvendelig protokoll som gjør den kombinerte, samtidig påvisning av Xist RNA og DNA kodet av X-kromosomet. Denne kombinerte DNA-RNA FISH-protokollen kan sannsynligvis bli anvendt med andre systemer hvor både RNA-og DNA må bli detektert.

Ved hjelp av de ovennevnte protokoll for kombinerte DNA-RNA FISH, har vi vært i stand til å visualisere X inaktive i differensierende hunn embryonale stamceller. Figur 1 viser et representativt eksempel på en DNA-RNA FISH eksperiment, hvor vi har oppdaget både Xist (som er synlig som en såkalt Xist RNA skyen på inaktive X-kromosomet, og en basal transkripsjon presisere på den aktive X-kromosomet), og et område av X-kromosomet, som er synlig som et ubetydelig signal. Legg merke ...
