Project description:TIE1 regulates leaf development by repressing leaf differentiation because the semi-dominant mutant tie1-D by activation tagging displays small and hyponastic leaves and the differentiation of leaf epidermal cells is delayed in the tie1-D mutant, whereas disruption of TIE1 causes epinastic leaves with early differentiated epidermal cells. We used microarrays to investigate the molecular base underpinning the phenotypes of TIE1-overexpressing plants. Aerial parts of 14-day-old seedlings from wild-type and GFP-TIE1-15 were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed in nlp2-2 Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 14-d-old seedlings complemented by a pNLP2::NLP2-GFP construct upon 30 minutes NO3- resupply after a 3-day NO3- starvation.
Project description:To understand how GTL1 regulates cell growth, we first identified its potential direct targets by the chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by the hybridization on an Affymetrix Arabidopsis Tiling 1.0R array (ChIP-chip). To enrich the genomic region bound by GTL1 in vivo, we harvested whole aerial parts of 12-day-old gtl1-1 plants complemented with the pGTL:GTL1:GFP constructs and immunoprecipitated the chromatin fragments associated with GTL1-GFP proteins using antibodies against GFP. After applying a cut-off P-values of 0.001of MAT (Model-based analysis of tiling array), we identified a total number of 3,900 putative immediate target genes that showed consistent binding by GTL1.
Project description:DCA (3,5-Dichloroanthranilic acid) is a newly identified synthetic defense elicitor. To perform a comparative analysis of defense responses triggered by DCA and the structurally related defense inducer INA (2,6-Dichloroisonicotinic acid) Affymetrix chip experiments were performed with Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings treated with one of these two compounds. Experiment Overall Design: Arabidopsis thaliana plants (accession Col-0) were grown on soil in a semi-sterile growth chamber under fluorescent lights (14 hours light, 10 hours dark, 21 centi grades, 100 Einstein/m2/s). Wild type Col-0 plants and the npr1-3 mutant were used in this study. Aerial tissues of 2 week old soil grown Arabidopsis seedlings were sprayed with 100uM 3,5-Dichloroanthranilic acid (DCA), or 100uM 2,6-Dichloroisonicotinic acid (INA) or mock solution and harvested 48h or 6 days after the treatment. Final DMSO concentrations never exceeded 0.002%. Mock treatments were application of 0.002% DMSO in water. For harvesting the aerial plant parts were shock-frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was isolated from seedlings using TRIZOL (Invitrogen) follwing the manufacturerâ??s instructions. RNA was processed and hybridized to Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 genome array GeneChip following manufacturerâ??s instructions (Affymetrix) by the University of California, Riverside Core Instrument Facility. Three independent biological replicates were performed for each treatment.
