Transcription profiling of Arabidopsis protoplasting and FACS sorting in roots

ABSTRACT: In order to estimate the effects of protoplasting and FACS sorting procedures on salt regulated gene expression we generated expression profiles for whole roots that had been treated with salt for 1 hour and for roots that were protoplasted and FACS sorted after the initial 1 hour salt treatment. Cells are amazingly adept at integrating both external and internal cues to regulate transcriptional states. While internal processes such as differentiation and cell-type specification are generally understood to have an important impact on gene expression, very little is known about how cells utilize these developmental cues to regulate responses to external stimuli. Here we use the response to a well characterized environmental stress, high salinity, to obtain a global view of the role that c
