Project description:The following CGH experiments were conducted on four sectors (S1-S4) from a single primary ductal carcinoma tumor (T6) using the Sector-Ploidy-Profiling (SPP) Approach. SPP involves macro-dissecting the tumor, flow-sorting nuclei by differences in total genomic DNA content and profiling the genome of the tumor subpopulations.
Project description:We newly invented the EV sheet, which is a unique nanofiber paper to capture extracellular vesicles from around 10 uL of bio-fluids. In this study, we investigated miRNA profiles of ID8-T6 cells bearing mice.

SPP involves macro-dissecting the tumor, flow-sorting nuclei by differences in total genomic DNA content and profiling the genome of the tumor subpopulations. The genomic DNA from each tumor subpopulation was labeled with Cy5 and hybridized to an 85K Bgl2 ROMA Microarray. A normal reference male fibroblast was labeled with Cy3 as a control. Samples were dye-swapped and the experiments were conducted in color-reversal. The value data repesents a log ratio of the mean of two dye-swapped samples
Project description:Sequence overlap between two genes is common across all genomes, with viruses having particularly high proportions of these gene overlaps. The natural biological function and effects on fitness of gene overlaps are not fully understood and their effects on gene cluster and genome-level refactoring are unknown.The model bacteriophage φX174 genome displays complex sequence architecture in which ~26% of nucleotides are involved in encoding more than one gene. In this study we use an engineered φX174 phage containing a genome with all gene overlaps removed.
Here we have temporally measured the proteome of a synthetically engineered and wild-type φX174 during infection. We find that almost half of all phage proteins (5/11) have abnormal expression profiles after genome modularisation.
