Project description:PTIP (Pax2 transactivation domain-interacting protein) is a nuclear protein containing six BRCT domains. It has been shown that PTIP affects gene expression by controlling the activity of the transcription factor Pax2 and histone H3 lysine 4 methyltransferase complexes. In addition to its role in transcriptional regulation, PTIP has been implicated in DNA damage response. To ask if the depletion of PTIP affects the expression level of genes encoding DNA damage response factors , we compared the whole transcripts between wild-type and PTIP deficient chicken DT40 B cell lines. The total RNAs were isolated from wild-type and PTIP deficient cells (PTIP-/-/-) using Sepasol®-RNA I (Nacalai tesque, Japan). The gene expression profiles were examined using Genechip® Chicken Genome Array (Affymetrix Cat #900590), by GeneticLab co. Ltd. Japan, following Genechip® protocol.

Project description:Transcription profiling of chicken Pax5 deficient DT40 B cell line to investigate the targets of Pax5 which is required for B-cell differentiation Used in cross-species comparison to investigate evolutionarily conserved regulatory circuits in B cell development Pax5 deficient DT40 B cells (3 biological replicates) were compared to DT40 wild-type cells (3 biological replicates).
