Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30977: C. elegans: Dauers and Dauer-Exit at 12 hour time-point vs. Mix-stage worms GSE31861: P. pacificus : Dauers and Dauer-Exit at 12 hour time-point vs. Mix-stage worms Refer to individual Series
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of P. pacificus worms from (1) dauer stage, or (2) dauer-exit at 12 hours stage, compared to mix-stage worms as a common reference. The goal was to determine genes regulated during dauer development and recovery or exit from dauer stage. This data was then compared to data generated for corresponding developmental stages in the C. elegans (see NCBI GEO series GSE30977) , to study evolution of developmental pathways regulating dauer development. Two-condition experiments. Experiment 1 = Dauers vs. Mix-stage worms. 4 biological replicates for each condition, including 2 dye-swaps. Experiment 2 = Dauer-Exit at 12 hour time-point s vs. Mix-stage worms. 3 biological replicates for each condition, including 1 dye-swaps. Total samples from both experiments 1 and 2 = 7.

The goal was to determine genes regulated during dauer development and recovery or exit from dauer stage. This data was then compared to data generated for corresponding developmental stages in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus (separate data-sets on a custom microarray platform designed by us and manufactured by Agilent) , to study evolution of developmental pathways regulating dauer development.

Project description:These are the 94 microarray experiments that are published in the paper: John Wang and Stuart K. Kim. Global analysis of dauer gene expression in Caenorhabditis elegans, Development 2003 130: 1621-1634. There are 94 individual microarray experiments divided into 3 broad experiments. The first experiment is a time course of dauer exit; each time course is labeled as "Dauer MTC#". The second experiment is a time course of L1 development after starvation arrest; each time couse is labeled "L1 MTC#". The final experiment is a comparison of pure dauers (0 hours) versus 12 hours after dauer exit and are labeled "Dauer Adjust". Every time course was repeated 4 times (#N)however for the dauer 4 and 7 hour time points there are only 3 replicates. For instance, all the time points labeled as "Dauer MTC#1" are from the same starting pool of dauer worms that were aliquoted into 10 fractions and analyzed at the time indicated. Every sample is compared to a common reference RNA that is used throughout all the hybridizations. In some cases there is a "-2" after the hour designation; this means the first hybridization failed for some technical reason and thus the second hybridization (same RNA) is reported.

Project description:Pristionchus pacificus and Caenorhabditis elegans: Dauer and Dauer exit versus mix-stage comparisons
Project description:Many organisms in the nature can drive themselves into an ametabolic state known as anhydrobiosis upon extreme desiccation. The nematode C. elegans is one of them. However, the anhydrobiotic ability of the worm is limited to a special developmental stage known as the dauer. Besides, the dauer larvae must be first treated by a mild desiccation stress (preconditioning) so that they gain desiccation tolerance. In this study, we investigated the differential gene expression during preconditioning in the C. elegans dauer.
