Project description:A cascade of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors guide tapetal cell development in maize anthers, using proteins conserved in Arabidopsis and rice but deployed with a distinctive timing. Anthers were dissected and staged to be 1500 μm in length (+/- 100 μm) and samples were compared between mutants and fertile siblings on an Agilent 4x44 custom microarray. Analysis included MS32 which is another basic helix-loop-helix factor that acts later during tapetal differentiation.
Project description:The hlh-30 gene encodes a C. elegans basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor; We compared RNA from wild type worms and worms mutant for the hlh-30 gene to identify putative target genes of the HLH-30 transcription factor.
