Project description:au13-11_gravity - gravity - Cell cycle and cell proliferation are decoupled under altered gravity conditions. We have previously shown that semisolid cell cultures of Arabidopsis suffer overall genome changes in response to altered gravity and also that cell cycle stages duration is altered. By using synchronized cell cultures we will demonstrate the precise alterations in cell cycle duration and also the transcriptional signature in any of them. - Experiments consists on exposures of Arabidopsis cell cultures to 1g control/simulated microgravity (RPM) conditions. Asynchronous cells exposed for 14 h + Syncronous populations choosen to have an enrichment of cell cycle phases were used (being T7/T10 samples on G2 phase, T14/T16 samples on G1 phase).

Project description:Divergent functions of two clades of flavodoxin in diatoms mitigate oxidative stress and iron limitation Thalassiosira pseudonana and 4 open-ocean diatoms were subjected to iron limitation or short-term oxidative stress (hydrogen peroxide). mRNA profiles of T. pseudonana (CCMP1335), Thalassiosira oceanica (CCMP1005), Amphora coffeaeformis (CCMP1405), Chaetoceros sp. (CCMP199), and Cylindrotheca closterium (CCMP340).
