In mammary tissue specifically, expression of approximately 570 genes is induced during pregnancy by prolactin through STAT5, which binds to putative regulatory sequences. We have now asked whether mammary-specific induction of these genes can be linked to the presence of additional transcription factors, which would act in concert with STAT5. RNA-seq analysis at parturition identified 370 genes that were under NFIB control. Notably, 75% of these genes, encoding proteins linked to the differentiation of mammary epithelium, were also regulated by STAT5. This study demonstrates that the STAT5-NFIB module is an essential part of genes that define differentiation and function of the mammary gland.

Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent, followed by a cleanup step using the RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (QIAGEN). Poly(A) RNA was purified twice from 1 mg total RNA and cDNA was synthesized using SuperScript II (Invitrogen) and TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA), and sequenced using HiSeq 2000 (Illumina) RNA libraries were prepared for sequencing using standard Illumina protocols Basecalls performed using the CASAVA software Sequenced reads were aligned to the mm9 genome assembly using the TopHat program (Trapnell et al., Bioinformatics, 2009) In short, exons from all isoforms of a gene were merged to create one meta-transcript. The number of reads falling in the exons of this meta-transcript were counted. RPKM (reads per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads) were calculated using a protocol (Mortazavi et al., Nat. Methods, 2008). Genome_build: mm9 Supplementary_files_format_and_content: tab-delimited text files include RPKM values for each Sample.
