A Genome-wide RNAi Screen for Microtubule Bundle Formation and Lysosome Motility Regulation in Drosophila S2 Cells.

چکیده
Long-distance intracellular transport of organelles, mRNA, and proteins ("cargo") occurs along the microtubule cytoskeleton by the action of kinesin and dynein motor proteins, but the vast network of factors involved in regulating intracellular cargo transport are still unknown. We capitalize on the Drosophila melanogaster S2 model cell system to monitor lysosome transport along microtubule bundles, which require enzymatically active kinesin-1 motor protein for their formation. We use an automated tracking program and a naive Bayesian classifier for the multivariate motility data to analyze 15,683 gene phenotypes and find 98 proteins involved in regulating lysosome motility along microtubules and 48 involved in the formation of microtubule filled processes in S2 cells. We identify innate immunity genes, ion channels, and signaling proteins having a role in lysosome motility regulation and find an unexpected relationship between the dynein motor, Rab7a, and lysosome motility regulation.

A whole genome RNAi screen of Drosophila S2 cell spreading performed using automated computational image analysis
Recent technological advances in microscopy have enabled cell-based whole genome screens, but the analysis of the vast amount of image data generated by such screens usually proves to be rate limiting. In this study, we performed a whole genome RNA interference (RNAi) screen to uncover genes that affect spreading of Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells using several computational methods for analyz...
متن کاملA whole genome RNAi screen of Drosophila S 2 cell
Cells can adopt a wide range of morphologies, from round lymphocytes to highly branched Purkinjee neurons. Major challenges of modern cell biology are to identify the proteins that are involved in cell shape determination and understand how these proteins are regulated by external and internal signals. Many of the best-studied proteins involved in cell shape determination are components or dire...

متن کاملAn RNA interference screen identifies a novel regulator of target of rapamycin that mediates hypoxia suppression of translation in Drosophila S2 cells.
In addition to its central role in energy production, oxygen has pervasive regulatory actions. Hypoxia (oxygen limitation) triggers the shutdown of major cellular processes, including gene expression. We carried out a genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) screen in Drosophila S2 cells for functions required to down-regulate translation during hypoxia. RNAi knockdown of specific genes allowed indu...
متن کاملAn RNAi screen identifies additional members of the Drosophila Integrator complex and a requirement for cyclin C/Cdk8 in snRNA 3'-end formation.
Formation of the 3' end of RNA polymerase II-transcribed snRNAs requires a poorly understood group of proteins called the Integrator complex. Here we used a fluorescence-based read-through reporter that expresses GFP in response to snRNA misprocessing and performed a genome-wide RNAi screen in Drosophila S2 cells to identify novel factors required for snRNA 3'-end formation. In addition to the ...
