Identification of genes with different expression in wild- and half-size Xenopus laevis embryos by transcriptome comparison

ABSTRACT: To identify genes with different expression levels in Xenopus laevis embryos of different sizes, RNAseq of middle gastrula RNA of the wild-size and artificially prepared half-size embryos was done. As a result, several genes with drastically different expression between these two types of embryos were found.

Xenopus hybrids provide insight into cell and organism size control

Project description:Determining how size is controlled is a fundamental question in biology that is poorly understood at the organismal, cellular and subcellular levels. The Xenopus species, X. laevis and X. tropicalis differ in size at all three of these levels. Despite these differences, fertilization of X. laevis eggs with X. tropicalis sperm gives rise to viable hybrid animals that are intermediate in size. Hybrid and X. laevis embryos initially start from the same size egg and develop at the same rate, but hybrid animals were smaller by the tailbud stage, and reduced nuclear to cell size ratios were observed shortly after zygotic genome activation (ZGA), indicating that differential gene expression may contribute to size differences. Transcriptome analysis at the onset of ZGA identified twelve transcription factors paternally expressed in hybrids. A screen of these X. tropicalis factors by expression in X. laevis embryos revealed that Hes7 and Ventx2 were sufficient to significantly reduce X. laevis organismal size by the tailbud stage, although nuclear to cell size ratios were not significantly affected. Together, these results suggest that transcriptional regulation contributes to biological size control in Xenopus.

Transcription profiling of Xenopus laevis early gastrulation embryos injected with alpha-amanitin against RNA polymerase II activity

Project description:Xenopus laevis embryos were injected with alpha-amanitin to inhibit RNA polymerase II activity. Embryos were allowed to develop up to stage 10.5 (early gastrula, control and alpha-amanitin injected embryos) and subsequently collected for RNA isolation. The transcriptome profiles of alpha-amanitin injected and control embryos were compared.

Transcription profiling of Xenopus laevis early gastrulation embryos injected with antisense oligonucleotides against TBP, TLF or TBP2

Project description:Xenopus laevis embryos were injected with antisense oligonucleotides against TBP, TLF or TBP2. Embryos were allowed to develop up to stage 7 (non-injected control embryos) or stage 10.5 (early gastrula, control and antisense injected embryos) and subsequently collected for RNA and protein isolation. The transcriptome profile of antisense injected and control embryos was compared.

Xenopus laevis embryos and animal caps: Control vs PouV morpholino

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Xenopus laevis embryos and ectoderm (animal caps) comparing embryos injected with control morpholino with embryos injected with the morpholino mixture PVD2, which knocks down all three Xenopus PouV proteins. Whole embryos (WE) or animal caps (AC) were collected at late blastula (9) or early gastrula (10) stages from Control and PVD2 morphants. Two conditions: Control vs. PouV morpholino; Two tissues: whole embryos, animal caps .Two timepoints: stage 9 and 10. Biological replicates: 2 control replicates at stage 9 and 10 for whole embryos, 2 control replicates at stage 9 and 10 for animal caps, 2 PVD2 morpholino replicates at stage 9 and 10 for whole embryos, 2 control replicates at stage 9 and 10 for animal caps

microRNAs signatures of Xenopus laevis embryo epidermis at stage 11 (non ciliated) and 26 (ciliated) using high throughput sequencing

Project description:Epidermis of Xenopus embryos forms a mucociliary epithelium constituted of basal, scattered, secreting and ciliated cells and is histologically similar to human airway mucociliary epithelium. We compared microRNAs signatures of epidermis of Xenopus embryos at stage 11.5 (gastrula, non ciliated epidermis) and at stage 26 (tailbud, ciliated epidermis). 2 technical replicates of a pool of 50 explants for each stage 11.5 (non ciliated) and 26 (ciliated) of Xenopus laevis development

Transcription profiling of Xenopus laevis developing notochord

Project description:We screened for differentially expressed genes in the developing notochord using the Affymetrix microarray system in Xenopus laevis. At late gastrula, we dissected four regions from the embryo, anterior mesoderm, posterior mesoderm, notochord and presomitic mesoderm. Three types of comparison were carried out to generate a list of predominantly notochord expressed genes: (1) Posterior mesoderm vs. anterior mesoderm; notochord genes are expected to be increased since the notochord is located in the posterior mesoderm. (2) Posterior mesoderm vs. whole embryos; notochord genes are expected to be increased. (3) Notochord vs. somite. This comparison sub-divided the group of posterior mesodermal genes identified in (1) and (2). All tissues are dissected using tungsten needles. We first dissected dorsal tissue above the archenteron from late gastrula to early neurula. To loosen tissue, we treated the dissected dorsal explant in a 1% cysteine solution (pH 7.4) and removed the neuroectodermal layer. Anterior mesoderm was dissected corresponding to about the anterior one-third of the archenteron roof, and the rest was collected as posterior mesoderm. The posterior mesodermal explant was dissected into notochord and somites, following a clearly visible border between the two tissues. The accuracy of all dissection was confirmed by RT-PCR of marker genes.
