Project description:Plant diurnal oscillation is a 24-hour period based variation. The correlation between diurnal genes and biological pathways was widely revealed by microarray analysis in different species. Rice (Oryza sativa) is the major food staple for about half of the world's population. The rice flag leaf is essential in providing photosynthates to the grain filling. However, there is still no comprehensive view about the diurnal transcriptome for rice leaves. In this study, we applied rice microarray to monitor the rhythmically expressed genes in rice seedling and flag leaves. We developed a new computational analysis approach and identified 6,266 (10.96%) diurnal probe sets in seedling leaves, 13,773 (24.08%) diurnal probe sets in flag leaves. About 65% of overall transcription factors were identified as flag leaf preferred. In seedling leaves, the peak of phase distribution was from 2:00am to 4:00am, whereas in flag leaves, the peak was from 8:00pm to 2:00am. The diurnal phase distribution analysis of gene ontology (GO) and cis-element enrichment indicated that, some important processes were waken by the light, such as photosynthesis and abiotic stimulus, while some genes related to the nuclear and ribosome involved processes were active mostly during the switch time of light to dark. The starch and sucrose metabolism pathway genes also showed diurnal phase. We conducted comparison analysis between Arabidopsis and rice leaf transcriptome throughout the diurnal cycle. In summary, our analysis approach is feasible for relatively unbiased identification of diurnal transcripts, efficiently detecting some special periodic patterns with non-sinusoidal periodic patterns. Compared to the rice flag leaves, the gene transcription levels of seedling leaves were relatively limited to the diurnal rhythm. Our comprehensive microarray analysis of seedling and flag leaves of rice provided an overview of the rice diurnal transcriptome and indicated some diurnal regulated biological processes and key functional pathways in rice.

Project description:The ability of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LOC1 and LOC3, originally isolated from fresh tea leaves, to modulate the response of murine macrophages to the activation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by the stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was evaluated.
Project description:Measurement of gene expression over a diurnal timecourse in different tissues of N.tabacum. The primary aim of the collection of this data was to validate predicted gene models in the associated publication
Project description:The Atss3 mutant and WT plants were arranged according to a Randomized Complete Block Design. The plants were planted in rows with seven rows in each flat; two plants of the same genotype/pot. Plants were grown under a SD photoperiod (8 h light/16 h dark) in a growth chamber as described. Eight randomly selected rows were harvested for each time point from different flats. Plant material was harvested at five time points in the diurnal cycle (1, 4, 8.5, 12, and 16 h; Time 0 is the beginning of the light period); harvesting was conducted under a green safety light. Each sample consisted of rosette leaves (leaves 5 to 8, staged following Bowmann (1994); photosynthetically active (Stessman et al., 2002)) from sixteen six-week-old plants. Leaf samples were frozen in liquid N2 immediately after harvest and stored at -80‚°C for RNA extraction. The experiment was done twice and independent randomizations for plant growth and harvest were used for the two replicates.

Project description:This study looked for signals produced in UV-B irradiated leaves, and possibly induced in shielded leaves, that modulate physiological responses in maize. Transcriptome and proteomics profiling tracked changes in exposed and shielded organs. Metabolic profiling was examined for signaling molecules. Exposure of just the top leaf substantially alters the transcriptome of both irradiated and shielded organs, with greater changes as an additional 1-2 leaves are irradiated. Transcriptome, proteome and metabolome changes are UV-B regulated in shielded organs. Early steps in signal transduction and possible signal molecules are identified utilizing a time course experiment. Keywords: UVB, maize, leaves, ears
Project description:The aim of this project was to compare and optimize sample processing protocols up-stream of LC-MS/MS. We set out to create a protocol that is easier and less laborious to use with liquid handlers than FASP, but that generates comparable results as FASP or traditional in-gel digestion.
