Project description:OrR drosophila 3rd instar larvae were subjected to septic injury with a mixture of E.coli and S.aureus at 3h, 6h and 18h. Plasmatocytes were isolated afterwards and subjected to RNA-seq
Project description:Drosophila carrying Hml-SwitchGal4 were crossed to different uas-constructs (uas-eGFP, uas-PGRP-LC, uas-hop, uas-tkvQD). 3rd instar larvae were either kept as control or SwitchGal4 was activated by hormone feeding for 24h. Afterwards plasmatocytes were extracted and subjected to RNA-seq.
Project description:Drosophila plasmatocyes expressed control or trxG RNAis under the plasmatocyte specific Hml promotor. 6h prior to plasmatocyte collection animals were split into control and septic injury groups and treated accordingly. Afterwards plasmatocytes were isolated and polyA RNA was subjected to RNA-seq.
Project description:Drosophila 3rd instar larvae were subjected to septic injury. After 6h plasmatocytes were isolated, fixed and subjected to ChIP-seq.
Project description:To identify the presence of different chromatin states in homogeneous primary cells, Drosophila melanogaster plasmatocytes were isolated from 3rd instar larvae and subjected to cross-linked ChIP-seq using antibodies against a range of H3 histone modifications and PolII.
Project description:We adapted the yeast clogger system to Drosophila motoneurons to block TOM-TIM23-mediated import with temporal control. Sustained import stress converts somatic mitochondria into donut-shaped structures, depletes functional mitochondria from synaptic terminals, and causes progressive neurodegeneration with impaired neurotransmitter release and locomotor dysfunction. This neurodegeneration is mechanistically distinct from mitochondrial absence, as miro mutant neurons that completely lack presynaptic mitochondria do not degenerate. This dataset includes RNA-seq reads from an experiment when mito-IMMDHFR expression was induced pan-neuronally using the TARGET system (n-syb-Gal4; tub-Gal80ts) by shifting animals from 18°C to 29°C for 1, 2, or 3 days prior to collection at the wandering third instar larval stage.
Project description:Drosophila melanogaster 3rd instar wandering larvae with a genetic construct for hemocyte ablation were collected along with genetically matched non-ablated animals, RNA was extracted from whole animals and used for RNA-seq.
Project description:mRNA expression levels were determined by NGS for wildtype larvae as well as for larvae lacking HP1a [Su(var)205^04/Su(var)205^05 transheterozygotes]. RNA samples from wildtype (OR) and HP1a mutant third instar larvae were examined, using duplicate biological samples and Illumina NGS.
