Transcriptome analysis of Ciona intestinalis to identify genes expressed in the adult organs.

ABSTRACT: Among urochordates (tunicates)—the closest living relatives of vertebrates—Ciona intestinalis is increasingly being used as a model organism in the field of developmental biology. Ciona intestinalis is the seventh animal which genome published; the ~120-Mbp euchromatin region is estimated to contain ~16,000 protein-coding genes. In addition, analyses of more than one million ESTs have provided the foundation for gene models and associated transcriptomes. The fertilized Ciona intestinalis egg develops into a tadpole larva with a simplified chordate body plan, and then it metamorphose into adult sea squirt of sessile filter feeder. One of interests in the field of developmental biology is to understand what kind of genes are expressed in the body and how spatially and/or temporally coordinated expression of genes is controlled. In this study, we investigated the entire gene expression of 11 organs of adult Ciona; the neural complex, branchial sac, esophagus, stomach, endostyle, intestine, body-wall muscle, heart, blood cells, ovary, and testis. Our data would provides basic information of transcriptome in each organ and help to understand gene expression control of organ specific genes.

Three independent experiments were performed at each tissue using different individuals for each experiment.

Single-cell transcriptome profiling of the Ciona larval brain

Project description:The tadpole-type larva of Ciona has emerged as an intriguing model system for the study of neurodevelopment. The Ciona intestinalis connectome has been recently mapped, revealing the smallest central nervous system (CNS) known in any chordate, with only 177 neurons. This minimal CNS is highly reminiscent of larger CNS of vertebrates, sharing many conserved developmental processes, anatomical compartments, neuron subtypes, and even specific neural circuits. Thus, the Ciona tadpole offers a unique opportunity to understand the development and wiring of a chordate CNS at single-cell resolution. Here we report the use of single-cell RNAseq to profile the transcriptomes of single cells isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from the whole brain of Ciona robusta (formerly intestinalis Type A) larvae. We have also compared these profiles to bulk RNAseq data from specific subsets of brain cells isolated by FACS using cell type-specific reporter plasmid expression. Taken together, these datasets have begun to reveal the compartment- and cell-specific gene expression patterns that define the organization of the Ciona larval brain.

Identification of differentially expressed genes in the mutant tail regression failed (trf) in Ciona intestinalis.

Project description:Tunicate ascidians exhibit metamorphosis that converts tadpole, swimming larva into immotile adult. In ascidian Ciona intestinalis, the mutant tail regression failed (trf) which shows defects in the metamorphosis was previously reported (Nakayama-Ishimura et al., 2009). In the metamorphosis process, trf larvae settle normally with their adhesive papillae, but do not start tail regression, papillae retraction and sensory vesicle retraction, while development of adult organs proceed. To understand the molecular mechanism of the metamorphosis, microarray analysis of trf mutant was performed.

small RNA sequencing of two developmental stages of Ciona intestinalis

Project description:We report the comprehensive sequencing of small RNA libraries created from different developmental stages (larva and gastrula) of the basal chordate, Ciona intestinalis. These libraries were used for the identification of microRNAs in this organism. Sequencing of small RNA libraries from 2 stages of Ciona intestinalis.

The formation of the intestine at the juvenile stage is raised by the Hox10 gene through the migration of endodermal strand cells in ascidian

Project description:Hox cluster genes play crucial roles in the establishment of the body plan along the antero-posterior axis during animal development. Hox genes are expressed in the chordate endodermal tissues, and unraveling functions there is necessary for elucidating the mechanisms of endoderm specification. In the invertebrate chordate Ciona intestinalis, the endodermal tissues are in the premature state at the larval stage, and they form the differentiated digestive tract during metamorphosis. In this study, we showed that a Hox gene Ci-Hox10 is required for the formation of the intestine during metamorphosis. To know the downstream genes that are controlled by Hox10, microarray analysis of Hox10 knock-down embryos was performed. Gene expressions in the tail region of Hox10 knockdown embryos that were injected with Hox10 morpholino (MO) and control embryos of Ciona intestinalis were examined by comparative analysis with two color detection. Dye-swap analysis was carried out.
