Project description:Heart development is modulated by FOG-2/NuRD interactions. FOG-2R3K5A is unable to recuit the NuRD complex and this results in cardiac defects such as ASD, VSD, and thin ventricular walls We used microarrays to detail the changes in gene expression in FOG-2R3K5A hearts to determine misexpression of genes that may be causing the observed phenotypes. Whole hearts from E16.5 Wild-type and FOG-2R3K5A siblings were processed for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We used three biological replicates of each genotype.
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare the relative expression genes in hearts of foxc1a-null mutants and WT siblings. 96hpf hearts of foxc1anju18 and WT siblings were dissected for total RNA extraction. RNA profiles were generated using Illumina deep sequencing. Our study represents the reduced expression of several trabeculation related signaling pathways and cell processes.
Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
