Project description:Testicular gene expression changes with loss of Topaz1 Total RNA was extracted from 15 or 20 dpp of WT or Topaz1-/- (KO) mouse testis (C57Bl6), There were 3 biological repeats by conditions.
Project description:To investigate transcriptional changes in developing mouse testicular germ cells, cells were isolated via FACS or centrifugal elutriation Isolated cells were subjected to native ChIP-Seq with an antibody against H3K4me3
Project description:The testis is one of the most transcriptionallyactive organs, however how germ cell differentiation is controlled at the molecular level remains largely unknown. To study global transcriptional dynamics during human spermatogenesis we sequenced total RNA of human testicular biopsies with 5 specific histological phenotypes: Sertoli cell-only (SCO, n=3), spermatogenic arrests at the spermatogonial (SPG, n=4), spermatocyte (SPC, n=3), and spermatid (SPD, n=3) level, as well as normal spermatogenesis (Normal, n=3). To our knowledge, this work provides the most complete capture of the transcriptome and its dynamics during human spermatogenesis to date.
