Project description:We report the m6dA modification on the Drosophila genome. We collected ovary genomic DNA from 2-day wild-type and DMAD mutant files and performed DNA-immunoprecipitation(DNA-IP)experiments using anti-m6dA antibody. The generated DNA library was subjected to a high-throughput deep sequencing analysis. In this assay, the IgG-immunoprecipited DNA from the same amount of wild-type ovaries was used as the control, and the high-throughput sequencing resulted in a range of approximately 3 to 4.6 million reads. In sum, we identified 50 and 195 peaks from wild-type and DMAD mutant samples. Importantly, m6dA is mainly utilized to modify the transposon sequence on the chromosomes. Examination of m6dA modifications in Genomic DNA of WT and DMAD mutant ovary.

Project description:To determine the extent to which the major small RNA pathways functions across the Arabidopsis thaliana genome, small RNA populations from several tissues of wild-type (wt) and mutant plants were amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced using high-throughput 454 sequencing technology. Keywords: small RNAs, high-throughput sequencing
Project description:AGO protein immunoprecipitation was combined with high-throughput sequencing of associated small RNAs. AGO2, AGO10, and to a lesser extent AGO1 were shown to associate with siRNAs derived from silencing suppressor (HC-Pro)-deficient TuMV-AS9, but not with siRNAs derived from wild-type TuMV. Co-immunoprecipitation and small RNA sequencing revealed that viral siRNAs broadly associated with wild-type HC-Pro during TuMV infection. These results support the hypothesis that suppression of antiviral silencing during TuMV infection, at least in part, occurs through sequestration of virus-derived siRNAs away from antiviral AGO proteins by HC-Pro.
Project description:To investigate the possible consequences of APOBEC1 editing for miRNA targeting, high-throughput sequencing of RNA isolated by cross-linking immunoprecipitation (HITS-CLIP) of the Argonaute (Ago) proteins (Chi et al., 2009) was performed in BMDMs derived from wild-type and Apobec1-/- littermates.
Project description:To explore the roles of BTA3 in regulating tiller angle, we performed RNA high-throughput sequencing analysis. The response of wild type (WT) and bta3-1 mutant to gravity stimulation was investigated in the study.
Project description:We used an MNase digestion of chromatin from Arabidopsis seedlings, combined or not with ChIP (native ChIP), to analyze by high-throughput sequencing the genome-wide profiles of nucleosomes (MNase-seq), and of total H3, H3K4me2, H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 (native ChIPs) in wild-type (Col-0), fpa mutant (fpa/AT2G43410, line fpa-7) and a triple mutant of all three BDR proteins (bdrs: cross of bdr1/AT5G25520 mutant SALK_142108C, bdr2/AT5G11430 mutant CS852350 and bdr3/AT2G25640 mutant SALK_059905). We found that BDR proteins occupy regions of low nucleosome density. We also observed that genes upregulated in bdrs triple mutant display high levels of RNA polymerase II on their gene bodies but low levels of H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 in wild-type seedlings. For genes with the highest levels of BDR occupancy in wild-type, increased mRNA expression in bdrs mutant is associated with reduced RNA polymerase II density profile and increased H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 levels.
