Project description:Human paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an enzyme with lactonase, esterase and phosphotriesterase activity that has been associated with multiple phenotypes. We expressed hPON1 ubiquitously in Drosophila melanogaster using the Gal4 system Tub driver.
Project description:Human paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an enzyme with lactonase, esterase and phosphotriesterase activity that has been associated with multiple phenotypes. We expressed hPON1 ubiquitously in Drosophila melanogaster using the Gal4 system Tub driver. RNA from 30 flies from each of 3 genotypes was used to hybridize 4 arrays in a 12-plex array (4 technical replicates, 3 genotypes).
Project description:We report here the transcriptomic analysis of Drosophila melanogaster wing imaginal discs from third instar female larvae expressing Cyclin G deleted of the PEST domain (the 25 COOH-terminal amin-acids) under the control of the daugterless-Gal4 ubiquitous driver. The negative control was transgenic flies wearing only the daugterless-Gal4 driver.
Project description:We describe here the genome-wide binding sites of Cyclin G in Drosophila melanogaster wing imaginal discs from third instar female larvae. We used a transgenic line expressing a version Cyclin G deleted of the PEST domain (the 25 COOH-terminal amin-acids) and tagged by Myc under the control of the daugterless-Gal4 ubiquitous driver.
Project description:Thermal acclimation study on Drosophila melanogaster reared at 3 different temperatures (12, 25, and 31oC). The proteomic profiles of D. melanogaster under these different temperatures were analyzed and compared using label-free tandem mass spectrometry.
Project description:Targeted DamID (TaDa) measures gene expression using a DNA adenine methyltransferase (Dam) fused to RNA polymerase II (Dam Pol II) to methylate DNA as the genome is transcribed (Southall, Gold et al. 2013, PMID: 23792147). Here we use traditional Illumina RNA-Seq to determine if a cell’s expression profile is affected by Dam Pol II expression. Twenty-four hours prior to collection, we ubiquitously drove UAS Dam or UAS Dam Pol II using a tubulin (tub) GAL4 regulated by a temperature sensitive tub GAL80[ts] (McGuire et al. 2003, PMID: 14657498) in adult Drosophila melanogaster (taxon: 7227) whole males, whole females, testes, and ovaries.
Project description:This project presents a quantitative proteomic analysis of Drosophila melanogaster head tissue expressing human FUS-P525L, using data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry. To enable identification of the human transgene, mass spectrometry data were analyzed against a custom database containing the Drosophila melanogaster proteome (UniProt UP000000803) and the human FUS sequence. Head samples were processed through protein extraction, acetone precipitation, and in-solution tryptic digestion. LC-MS/MS data were acquired on a Thermo Scientific instrument and analyzed with the DIA-NN software (v1.8.1), with FDR controlled at 1%. The dataset enables the investigation of protein expression changes, including the transgenic human FUS, under P3 treatment.
