Project description:The goal of this study was to identify small RNA-ARGONAUTE interactions in Arabidopsis. Co-immunoprecipitation assays followed by high-throughput sequencing were done to identify small RNA associated with HA-AGO2 and HA-AGO7. Keywords: small RNA - ARGONAUTE interactions
Project description:In this project, we profiled the dynamics of proteome during Arabidopsis early embryogenesis using nanoproteomics. In addition, we identified some proteins which may be important during this process. Combining with RNA-seq, we unveiled the relationship between RNA and proteins during Arabidopsis early embryogenesis.
Project description:By knocking out genes encoding specific arogenate dehydrase (ADT) enzymes in Arabidopsis, variable reductions in lignin can be achieved. To understand how ADT composition affects plant phenotypes and biomolecular systems, we successfully constructed single and multiple ADT knockout (KO) mutants in Arabidopsis. Using these mutants, a multi-omics (metabolome, transcriptome and proteome) evaluation was conducted using GC- and LC-MS, RNA-Seq, and iTRAQ labeled LC-MS/MS technologies. Identifications include primary and secondary metabolites, transcripts, and proteins in leaf and stem samples taken at 4 weeks of age from 9 KO and wild-type (WT) lines.
