Project description:Presence of an inhibitor of the cytochrome pathway (antimycine A). This treatment induces the expression of a gene coding for an alternative oxydase (AOX1a) and one of the two genes coding for apocytochrome c (CYTc-a).
Project description:The homozygous arabidopsis line 9S9 overproducing AtCCME-HIS (At3g1790), a mitochondrial heme chaperon involved in c-type cytochrome maturation will be compared with the corresponding wild type (Wassilievskjia).
Project description:We want to know which genes are overexpressed or down regulated in Arabidopsis plants transformed with the sunflower hahb-4 homeodomain transcription factor with respect to non transformed ones in control and water stress conditions. This gene, hahb4, confers drought tolerance to transgenic arabidopsis plants. Aa water stress was applied to transgenic and non transformed three weeks old arabidopsis plants control and overexpressing line
Project description:During a compatible interaction, root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) induce the redifferentiation of root cells into multinucleate nematode feeding cells giant cells. These hypertrophied cells result from repeated nuclear divisions without cytokinesis, are metabolically active and present features typical of transfer cells. Hyperplasia of the surrounding cells leads to formation of the typical root gall. We investigate here the plant response to root-knot nematodes.
Project description:GCN5 plays an essential role in chromatin modification and transcriptional regulation, its mode of action is not understood. It is therefore crucial to determine what are the sites targeted by GCN5 in the Arabidopsis genome to decipher the regulatory mechanisms in which it is involved. Array technologies have been used in recent years to determine, at the scale of whole genomes, the sites bound in vivo by chromatin-associated proteins (Hanlon and Lieb 2004) or targeted by chromatin-modifying enzymes (Millar and Grunstein 2006; Zhang et al. 2006). In this study we took advantage of the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) technique coupled with hybridization to a novel Arabidopsis promoter array to show that GCN5 is recruited to a large number of transcriptionally active promoters.
Project description:rs05-09_histone-acetylase - gcn5 - Different genes show an opposed expression profile in gcn5 compared to hd1. For these genes, the double mutant might show an expression similar to the wild type. - gcn5, hd1 or double mutant gcn5hd1 were grown on MS during 10 days (1.03 boyes stage). Keywords: gene knock out 3 dye-swaps - CATMA arrays
Project description:We explore the genome-wide occupancy of 4 different chromatin regulating complexes encoded in S. cerevisiae. We provide the data for histone acetyltransferases Gcn5 and Esa1 and histone deacetylases Hst1 and Rpd3/Sin3 under rich growth condition (YPD medium). We also include the occupancy data for RNA polymerase II under the same growth condition.
Project description:Microarray technology was used to monitor the level of expression of 7,657 human genes in a set of 35 nodal peripheral T-cell lymphomas.
