Project description:Purpose: With the advent of Next-generation sequencing (NGS), several novel genes/proteins and cellular pathways in wide varitey of tissues has discovered. The aim of this study are to perform transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) of magnum to determine differently expressed genes in laying and non-laying hens and to further validate the expression of candidate genes using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) in laying, non-laying and molting hens. Methods: Magnum mRNA profiles of 35-60 weeks-old laying and non-laying hens, three each, were generated with NextSeq 500 sequencer in single-end mode with a read length of 1x76 bp. Raw sequencing reads were cleaned and trimmmed with Prinseq tool and good reads were aligned against the chicken reference gemone (Galgal 5.0) in Array Studio. Differential gene expression analysis was performed by the DESeq2 algorithm as implemented in Array Studio. The genes with at least three-fold change (FC) and Benjamini and Hochberg q-value < 0.05 were called differentially expressed. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 30.5 million reads from layers and 33.4 million reads from non-layers to the chicken genome. A total of 19,152 gene transcripts were annotated from Ensembl alignment which represents 50.24% of the chicken genome assembly. Differential gene expression analysis showed 540 were differentially expressed between layer and non-layer hens. 152 DEGs were significantly up-regulated and 388 were significantly down-regulated in the laying hens when compared to the non-laying hens. Conclusions: Our study reports the expression of several pre-discovered and many novel genes that may be involved in the transport of precurosor molecules for biosynthesis and secretion of the egg-white proteins in the magnum. These genes can be used as quantitative basis of selecting hens with an improved egg quality.

Project description:Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) are essential micronutrients linked to arrays of biological processes and physiological conditions. In laying hens, the optimal Ca/P ratio in feed is inconsistent but necessary for reliable schemes of mineral restriction in poultry diets. This study investigates the effects of dietary treatments varying in the Ca and P levels in two laying hen strains (Lohmann Brown-Classic and Lohmann LSL-Classic) at the peak of egg production (31 weeks of age). Four dietary treatment groups were differed in Ca (recommended vs. 15 % reduction) and mineral P (adequate vs. 20 % reduction) levels; 1) control diet (Con; Ca=34.4g/kg, P=5.3 g/kg and Ca/P ratio=7.45), 2) Low Ca and P diet (LCaP), 3) low Ca diet (LCa), and 4) low P diet (LP). microRNA expression of the jejunum mucosa were profiled by microRNA sequencing in a total of 80 animals (10 hens per experimental diet group for each of the two laying line) at sampling age of 31 weeks. RNA-seq data of matched samples are also available (E-MTAB-9109).

Project description:Purpose: With the advent of Next-generation sequencing (NGS), several novel genes/proteins and cellular pathways in wide variety of tissues has been discovered. The aim of this study are to perform uterine transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to determine differently expressed genes in laying and non-laying hens and to further validate the expression of candidate genes using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) in laying, non-laying and molting hens. Methods: Uterine mRNA profiles of 35-60 weeks-old laying and non-laying hens, three each, were generated with NextSeq 500 sequencer in single-end mode with a read length of 1x76 bp. Raw sequencing reads were cleaned and trimmmed with Prinseq tool and good reads were aligned against the chicken reference gemone (Galgal 5.0) in Array Studio. Differential gene expression analysis was performed by the DESeq2 algorithm as implemented in Array Studio. The genes with at least two-fold change (FC) and Benjamini and Hochberg q-value < 0.05 were called differentially expressed. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 32 million reads from layers and 28 million reads from non-layers to the chicken genome. A total of 19,152 gene transcripts were annotated from Ensembl alignment which represents 50.24% of the chicken genome assembly. Differential gene expression analysis showed 616 were differentially expressed between layer and non-layer hens. 229 DEGs were significantly up-regulated and 286 were significantly down-regulated in the laying hens when compared to the non-laying hens. Twelve candiate genes, linked to calcium remodeling, were identified by gene function analysis and validated using qPCR. MEPE, CALCB, OTOP2, STC2 and ATP2C2 were confirmed to be highly expressed in laying hens as compared to molting and non-laying hens. RNA-seq and qPCR data for relative gene expression were highly correlated (R2 =0.99). Conclusions: Our study reports the expression of four novel genes that are speculated to transport calcium ions across the uterine epithellium for eggshell mineralization. These genes can be used as quantitative basis of selecting hens with an improved eggshell quality.

Project description:A total of 565 miRNAs annotated in miRBase 20.0 were identified to be expressed in the liver of hen by high-throughput sequencing three biological reduplication libraries in juvenile and egg-laying hens, respectively. Compared with juvenile hen, 80 miRNAs (67 down-regulated and 13 up-regulated) were verified to be significant differential expression (SDE) in egg-laying physiological stage. Among these, miR-22-3p has the highest abundant expression, and miR-146b-5p has the highest fold-change. Additionally, 19 of the 71 novel miRNAs was significantly expressed. Furthermore, 648 putative target genes of the SDE miRNAs were obtained, and among these, FADS1, FADS2, ELOVL6, ACSL5, etc which are lipid metabolism related critical regulators are targeted by some SDE miRNAs. Gene Ontology (GO) analyses to the putative target genes of all the SDE miRNAs showed significantly enriched in Steroid biosynthesis, Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, and PPAR signaling pathway (P ≤ 0.05). Meanwhile, GO terms are also significantly enriched in lipid related biological processes.

Project description:We used a transcriptomic approach based on the comparison of the expression between the liver of sexually mature hens versus pre-laying pullets to better appreciate which hepatic proteases and antiproteases are specifically expressed in relation to vitellogenesis. Using a 20K chicken oligoarray corresponding to 12 595 different chicken genes, a total of 582 genes were shown to be over-expressed in the liver at sexual maturity of hens (1.2 to 67 fold- difference). Most of the top ten over-expressed genes are known components of egg yolk or of the perivitelline membrane. The combination of different bioinformatic tools reveals 12 proteases and 3 antiproteases amongst the over-expressed genes, including many predicted proteins with yet unknown functions.

Project description:Small non coding RNA molecules (sncRNAs) are key mediators of virulence and stress inducible gene expressions in some pathogens. In this work we identify sncRNAs in the Gram positive opportunistic pathogen Enterococcus faecalis. Enterococcus faecalis. We characterized 11 sncRNAs by tiling microarray analysis, 5’ and 3’ RACE-PCR, and Northern blot analysis. Six sncRNAs were specifically expressed at exponential phase, two sncRNAs were observed at stationary phase, and three were detected during both phases. This is the first experimental genome-wide identification of sncRNAs in E. faecalis and provides impetus to the understanding of gene regulation in this important human pathogen.
