Project description:Homozygous masterblind (mbl-/-) zebrafish exhibit reduced or absent eyes and telecephalon, and the expansion of the diencephalic fates to the front of the brain. A missense mutation in the GSK3-binding domain of zebrafish axin1, a scaffolding protein in the Wnt signaling pathway, results in the mbl phenotype. In an effort to identify and study the genes affected by Wnt signaling, we used a 14,000-oligonucleotide-gene microarray to determine differentially expressed genes in mbl/axin1 (-/-) and wild type control zebrafish embryos and larvae. Keywords: zebrafish, Danio rerio, wild-type mbl, axin1, development
Project description:MBL-1 is an RNA-binding protein important for the differentiation and development of many animal tissues. Our aim was to identify the binding targets of the MBL-1 protein in C. elegans. RNA from a CRISPR/CAS9-generated strain expressing a 3xFLAG-tagged MBL-1 protein was immunopreciprecipitated with an anti-FLAG antibody. RNA-seq was then performed to identify binding targets of the RNA-binding protein MBL-1. Experiments were performed at the L4 stage.
Project description:Interventions: 64Cu-DOTA labeled antibody probes against HER2 and EGFR
Primary outcome(s): Visualization of PET imaging with 64Cu-DOTA labeled antibody probes against HER2 and EGFR. Comparison between PET imaging and expression of HER2 and EGFR.
Study Design: Single arm Non-randomized
Project description:The transition of monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis (MBL) to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) remains ill-defined at the epigenetic and transcriptional level. Here, we performed single cell RNA and ATAC sequencing of low-count (LC) and high-count (HC) MBL and CLL blood samples to track the continuum from physiologic B cells to CLL.

Project description:This experiment seeks to investigate the lengths and modifications of the poly(A) tails of hepatitis A virus (HAV) RNA by nanopore long-reads sequencing, and whether RG7834, an inhibitor of TENT4 noncanonical poly(A) polymerases, alters the poly(A) tails of HAV RNA. Poliovirus (PV) infected cells were analyzed in parallel for comparison.
