Project description:The microarray experiment compare the transcriptome of PV-4 wild type versus the deltahemH1 mutant, a PPIX accumulating strain. Only part of the data is used in the manuscript and we are working on this dataset for future manuscripts
Project description:By combining deep sequencing with high-throughput quantitative RT-PCR, we reveal that somatic splicing profiles are reorganized to pluripotent splicing profiles during reprogramming from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. The splicing pattern in pluripotent stem cells resembles that in testis, and the regulatory regions have specific characters in length and sequence. These results indicate that the dynamic alteration in splicing is an integral part of the molecular network involved in the reprogramming process. Sequencing data from MEF, two iPS cell lines and one ES cell line. RT-PCR data will be represented within Figures or Tables in published manuscripts.
Project description:This project applied a dry non-invasive method to detect palaeoproteomic evidence from stained manuscripts. The manuscript analysed in this study is a medieval parchment birth girdle (Wellcome Collection Western MS. 632) made in England and thought to be used by pregnant women while giving birth. Using a dry non-invasive sampling method we were able to extract both human and non-human peptides from the stains, including evidence for the use of honey, cereals, ovicaprine milk and legumes. In addition, a large number of human peptides were detected on the birth roll, many of which are found in cervico-vaginal fluid. This suggests that the birth roll was actively used during childbirth. This study is the first to extract and analyse non-collagenous peptides from a parchment document using a dry non-invasive sampling method and demonstrates the potential of this type of analysis for stained manuscripts, providing direct biomolecular evidence for active use.
Project description:The microarray experiment compare the transcriptome of PV-4 wild type versus the deltahemH1 mutant, a PPIX accumulating strain. Only part of the data is used in the manuscript and we are working on this dataset for future manuscripts The wild type and deltahemH1 cell were revived and then cultured into late log-phase for collection, when significant PPIX accumulation occurred. Three biological replicates for wild type and deltahemH1
