Project description:Small RNA libraries of wildtype Arabidopsis thaliana and its mutant Dicer-like 1 (Dcl1) were constructed and sequenced for miRNA identification and expression analysis. The mutant data was used to validate novel miRNA predictions (from miRCat2 (Paicu et al. 2017), miRCat (Moxon et al. 2008), miRPlant (An et al. 2014) and miReap (http://mireap.sourceforge.net/)), by calculating the log fold change between the mutant and the wildtype samples.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana 12-days old seedlings comparing Col-0 wild type with transgenic plants with altered expression of dual-targetting plastid/mitochondrial organellar RNA-polymerase RPOTmp. Transgenic plants used for experiment were: overexpressor plants obtained by transformation of Col-0 WT plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016] contained catalytic part of RPOTmp enzyme with transit peptides of RPOTm (mitochondrial) and RPOTp (plastid) by agrobacterial transformation; plants with complementation of RPOTmp functions in mitochondria or chloroplasts obtained from transformation of GABI_286E07 rpotmp knockout-mutant plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016]. Goal was to determine the effects of RPOTmp knockout/overexpression on global Arabidopsis thaliana gene expression.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings treated with cis-cinnamic acid derivatives constructed by Nishikawa et al. (2013) Phytochemistry (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.phytochem.2013.08.013), evaluating the candidate of herbicide chemicals by observing early response of gene expressions in Arabidopsis seedlings.
Project description:We use metabolite profiles of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana measured on an UPLC-ESI/QqTOF-MS to evaluate uni- and multivariate statistical analysis of redundant features in compound spectra. Comparison was performed between the wild-type Col-0 and the 90.32 mutant. The mutant is a transposon based activation tagged A. th. line from the TAMARA population Schneider et al. [2005]. This particular mutant has an over-expression of the AT5G55880 - AT5G55890 genetic region with unknown function.
Project description:We produced RNA-Seq reads from messenger RNA isolated from seedling, root, and floral bud tissue for 17 MAGIC founder accessions (inbred strains) of Arabidopsis thaliana (see Gan et al. 2011. Nature, 477:419-23 for a description of the MAGIC genetic mapping resource). The resulting RNA-Seq data provide a resource to assess tissue-specific expression across different accessions of A. thaliana. Note that comparable read data for accessions Col-0 and Can-0, which are also founders of the MAGIC lines, has previously been released under GEO series GSE30795 (Gan et al. 2011. Nature, 477:419-23).
Project description:We produced RNA-Seq reads from messenger RNA isolated from root tissue for the 19 MAGIC founder accessions (inbred strains) of Arabidopsis thaliana (see Gan et al. 2011. Nature 477:419-23 for a description of the MAGIC genetic mapping resource). The read data was generated with biological replication (two replicates). The resulting RNA-Seq data provide a resource to assess root gene expression across different accessions of A. thaliana. Comparable RNA-Seq read data for the MAGIC founder accessions for aerial seedling tissue has previously been released under GEO series GSE30720 (Gan et al. 2011. Nature, 477:419-23).
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in several Arabidopsis thaliana mutants (nrpd1, nrpe1, ros1 dml2 dml3) compared to wild-type Col-0. The mutants analyzed in this study are further described in Le et al. 'DNA demethylases target promoter transposable elements to positively regulate stress responsive genes in Arabidopsis' . Genome Biology (in press).
Project description:The genome-wide target genes of transcription factors MYC2 and MYC3 were determined in etiolated (dark-grown) seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana. Chromatin immunoprecipition of MYC2 and MYC3 was performed as described in O’Malley et al (2016; doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2016.04.038), using transgenic A. thaliana expressing MYC2::YpET and MYC3::YpET fusion proteins from their native promoters, generated by recombineering (Gimenez-Ibanez et al. 2017; doi: 10.1111/nph.14354 ). Three-day old etiolated seedlings were treated with methyl JA for 2 h (as described in Schweizer et al., 2013), then harvested for ChIP-Seq.
