Project description:KLF7 null mice show profound axonal growth defects in the olfactory epithelium. The goal of this study was the identification of potential KLF7 target genes in olfactory sensory neurons. Experiment Overall Design: Olfactory epithelia were isolated from 3 wildtype and 3 mutant 1 day old pups and the RNA isolated, labeled and hybridized to one chip each.
Project description:Identification of all genes expressed by mouse olfactory sensory neurons; genes expressed in mature neurons, immature neurons, or both were distinguished. Independent validation of enrichment ratio values supported by statistical assessment of error rates was used to build a database of statistical probabilities of the expression of all mRNAs detected in mature neurons, immature neurons, both types of neurons (shared), and the residual population of all other cell types. FACS was used to separate a highly GFP+++ sample enriched in immature neurons, a weakly GFP+ sample slightly enriched in mature neurons, and a GFP- sample that contained all cell types in the olfactory epithelium but depleted of immature neurons.
Project description:We report RNA sequencing of single olfactory neurons from mouse olfactory epithelium in developmental progression from progenitors to precursors to immature neurons to mature neurons. Most mature neurons expressed only one of ~ 1000 odorant receptor genes (Olfrs) at high levels, whereas many immature neurons expressed low levels of multiple Olfrs. Investigating expression of odorant receptors genes in mouse olfactory sensory neurons during development.
