Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in early generation Caenorhabditis elegans Bristol N2 prg-1 and Bristol N2 prg-1; daf-2 double mutant, compared to late-generation strains. A seven chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate alleles of Caenorhabditis elegans Bristol N2 prg-1 and four separate allelic combinations of a double mutant strain, Bristol N2 prg-1; daf-2 , in which prg-1 (pk2298) and prg-1 (tm872) are combined with one of three daf-2 alleles (e1368, 1370, m41).
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in early generation Caenorhabditis elegans Bristol N2 rsd-2 and Bristol N2 rsd-6 single mutants, compared to late-generation strains at 25°C and 20°C
Project description:To exmine the role of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay process in the longevity regulation of daf-2 mutants, we sequenced transcriptomes from day 1 adult Caenorhabditis elegans: Bristol N2 (wild-type), and smg-2(qd101), daf-2(e1370) and smg-2(qd101); daf-2(e1370) mutants.
Project description:Transcriptome profiling of three models with impaired insulin/IGF1 signaling. 1. Deep sequencing of endogenous mRNA from Caenorhabditis elegans N2 var. Bristol (wildtype) and daf-2(e1370) mutant; 2. Deep sequencing of endogenous mRNA from murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) wildtype and irs1-/- knockout; 3. Deep sequencing of endogenous mRNA from murine embryoinic fibroblast (MEF) insr+/- -lox and insr+/- knockout 14 samples examined: C. elegans N2 var. Bristol (wildtype) vs. daf-2(e1370) mutant; MEF wildtype vs. irs1-/- knockout; MEF insr+/- -lox vs. insr +/- knockout
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in early generation Caenorhabditis elegans Bristol N2 rsd-2 and Bristol N2 rsd-6 single mutants, compared to late-generation strains at 25°C and 20°C A six chip study using total RNA recovered from two separate alleles of Caenorhabditis elegans Bristol N2 rsd-2 and one allele Bristol N2 rsd-6 , in which the effects of transgeneration aging are studied in early generation animals and late generation animals at the restrictive temperature of 25°C and the permissive temperature, 20°C.
