The identification of differentially expressed genes between animal and vegetal blastomeres in Xenopus laevis

ABSTRACT: To identify asymmetrically localized maternal mRNAs along the animal-vegetal axis in cleavage Xenopus embryos, we isolated animal and vegetal blastomeres at 8-cell stage, extracted the maternal mRNA respectively and analyzed them by RNA-seq technology. We identified 43 maternal transcripts significantly enriched in the vegetal region (FDR<0.05) by R/Bioconductor package DESeq

Comparison of animal-blastomeres' RNA content to vegetal-most half of vegetal blastomeres' RNA content at the 8-cell stage of Xenopus laevis embryos to identify animal-enriched transcripts

Project description:In Xenopus laevis, a number of studies identified vegetal factors that specify the germ line, endoderm and dorsal axis, but there are few studies demonstrating roles for animal-enriched maternal mRNAs. Therefore, we carried out a microarray analysis to identify novel maternal transcripts enriched in animal blastomeres. We sought to maximize differences between animal and vegetal samples. To that end, we dissected 8-cell embryos into animal blastomeres and vegetal blastomeres, and further dissected the vegetal blastomeres into vegetal-most halves (VP) and equatorial regions (discarded).

RNA-Seq analysis of localization along animal-vegetal axis of Xenopus laevis

Project description:We combined cryosectining of oocytes along the animal-vegetal axis (first developmental axis) and RNA-Seq to determine localization profiles of coding and noncoding RNAs. It provides complete view on RNA localization. We found that nearly all RNAs are localized, but only small percentage is actively transported during oogenesis.

RNA_Seq analysis of localization along animal-vegetal axis of Acipenser ruthenus

Project description:We performed cryosectioning of oocytes along the animal-vegetal axis (first developmental axis, section A (first animal) to section E (last vegetal), followed by RNA-Seq to determine the localization profiles of coding and noncoding RNAs. The method allowed for a complete view on RNA localization. We found that nearly all RNAs are localized, but only a small percentage is actively transported during oogenesis.

RNA_Seq analysis of localization along animal-vegetal axis of Danio rerio

Project description:Asymmetrical localization of biomolecules inside the egg, results in uneven cell division and two daughter cells with different fates. This phenomenon is required for the establishment of many biological processes and is particularly responsible for the great variety of cell types formed during developmentand requires strict timing and positional control. The key molecules determining the body plan are the mRNAs, of which many examples have already been discovered to be asymmetrically localized during oogenesis and embryogenesis in both the amphibian and fish models. However, our knowledge about evolutionary conservation or differences of localized mRNAs is still limited to a few candidates. Our goal has been to compare localization profiles along the animal-vegetal axis of mature eggs of four diverse models, Xenopus laevis, Danio rerio, Ambystoma mexicanum and Acipenser ruthenus using the spatial expression analysis method called TOMO-Seq. Surprisingly, we revealed RNAs that code for many known important genes such as germ layer determinants, germ plasm factors and members of key signalling pathways, are localized in completely different profiles among the models and sometimes even missing in their genomes. We determined the transcriptome distribution and found a poor correlation between the vegetally localized genes but a relatively good correlation between the animally localized genes. These findings indicate that the regulation of embryonic development within the animal kingdom is highly diverse and cannot be deduced based on a single model.

Comparative analysis of gene expression profiles between four kinds of blastomere at 8-cell stage embryos.

Project description:The establishment of body axes and specification of early embryonic cells depend on maternally supplied transcripts and/or proteins, several of which are localized at specific regions of fertilized eggs and early embryos. The ascidian is known to exhibit a mosaic mode of development, and this mode is largely dependent on localized maternal factors. Using blastomere isolation, microarray and whole-mount in situ hybridization, the present study of Ciona intestinalis demonstrates that maternal transcripts of a total of 17 genes are localized at the posterior-most region of fertilized eggs and early embryos. Ten of them are newly identified in the present study, while the remaining seven genes have already been characterized in the previous studies. In addition, maternal transcripts of two genes, in addition to 14 genes encoded by the mitochondrial genome, showed a mitochondria-like distribution. Despite the present comprehensive approach, we could not identify maternal transcripts that are clearly localized to the animal-pole side, the vegetal-pole side, the anterior-side or other specific regions of the early embryo. Therefore, we concluded that the posterior-most localization and mitochondria-like distribution appear to be major specialized patterns of maternal transcripts in the early Ciona embryos. Four kinds of sample. Two series comparison (A4.1+a4.2+b4.2 blastomeres vs B4.1 blastomeres and Animal blastomeres vs Vegetal blastomeres) were examined including dye swap analyses.
