Project description:HetxHet breeding pairs for the Gtf2i/Gtf2ird1 double mutants and Gtf2ird1 were set up for timed breedings. E13.5 embyros of WT, HET, and HOM mutants (n=3 for each genotype and each cross), were used for RNA-seq. Similar breedings were done for ChIP-seq. The ChIP-seq WT controls were E13.5 embyros from WT FVB/ANTJ x FVB/ANTJ and compared to HOM Gtf2i/Gtf2ird1 double mutatns and HOM Gtf2ird1 single mutants. There were n=3 WT and n=3 hom Gtf2ird1 single mutants for Gtf2ird1 ChIP-seq. There were n=4 WT and n=4 hom Gtf2i/Gtf2ird1 double mutants for Gtf2i ChIP-seq. Each genotype had the sample matched input control along with ChIP sample.
Project description:The study compares gene expression profile at several stages post amputation of the adult zebrafish ventricular heart between zebrafish mutants and WT siblings. The first experiment was to identify genes that are activated in response to cardiac injury at 3 and 7 days post amputation (dpa). Dusp6 mutant hearts were reported to show an enhanced regenerative response. For this experiment, bulk RNA seq was obtained from WT and Dusp6 mutant hearts and genes increased at 3 and 7 dpa were identified. The forkhead transcription factor, foxm1, showed increased expression in cardiomyocytes and follow up studies show that it is required to regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation. This was further explored with RNA-seq experiments comparing WT and foxm1 mutant hearts at 3dpa. We identified genes normally expressed in proliferating cells to be decreased in the foxm1 mutants.
Project description:We applied time-series SE50bp RNA-seq with 35M reads per sample in wild-type, MZsox19b, MZspg, and double MZspgsox19b mutants in zebrafish embryos to understand the role of Pou5f3 and Sox19b during zebrafish zygotic genome activation. In total we sequenced 4 biological replicates (rep1-4) for WT time curve and 2 biological replicates (rep1-2) for each mutant. WT rep5 are technical replicates for WT rep1, while MZsox19b rep3 and MZspg rep3 are techical replicates for MZsox19b rep1 and MZspg rep1, respectively.
Project description:Adults heterozygous for the hi2217 retroviral insertion within the HAI locus (Mathias et al 2007 JCS) were in-crossed for RNA from hi2217 mutants and corresponding WT siblings. Adults heterozygous for the hi1520 retroviral insertion within the Clint1 locus (Dodd et al, 2009) were in-crossed for RNA from hi1520 mutants and corresponding WT siblings. Both hi2217 and hi1520 are mutants with epidermal defects and showing symptoms of chronic inflammation. In this study we aimed to compare the RNA expression changes between Wild-type siblings (a non-inflammatory status) and homozygous mutants (a chronic inflammatory status) for each mutant background (hi2217 and hi1520). Pools of 30-50 zebrafish embryos of WT siblings and hi2217 or hi1520 mutants were collected for RNA isolation. RNA from the hi2217 mutant embryos or hi1520 mutant embryos (test samples)was labelled with Cy5 and hybridized against Cy3-labelled RNA from the corresponding WT sibling embryos (reference samples) . These experiments were performed in biological triplicate.
Project description:Abstract: Paired-end sequence data has been generated using polyA selected RNA from a range of zebrafish tissues using the Illumina Genome Analyzer. Study description: Zebrafish total RNA was extracted from adult tissue, then polyA selected. After fragmentation and reverse transcription Illumina sequencing libraries were prepared. Paired-end sequence runs were performed with 76 base reads on the Illumina Genome Analyzer.

Project description:We conducted functional analysis on zebrafish mutant fn10a by polyA+, 100bp paired end, strand-specific RNA-seq. By comparing the transcriptome of fn10a mutants and their wildtype siblings or wildtype controls, we revealed a transcriptome-wide RNA splicing deficiency and a large amount of intron-retaining transcripts, which resulted in compromised nonsense-mediated RNA decay and activation of the p53 pathway in fn10a mutants. 2 biological replicates were performed to consolidate the findings. We also conducted subcellular RNA-seq between fn10a mutants and wildtype siblings, to investigate the localization of intron retaining transcripts.
