Project description:The aim of the experiment was to identify transcripts that are regulated by LHY, a MYB transcription factor that functions as part of the Arabidopsis circadian clock. Transgenic plants carrying an ethanol-inducible copy ot the LHY gene (Alc::LHY) were irrigated with 6% ethanol at ZT 17 (17 hours after dawn). Their transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants exposed to the same treatment at times 0, 2, 4 and 8 hours after ethanol addition.

Project description:Aerenchyma is continuous gas space between shoot and roots that contributes to the internal aeration in plants. In response to excess water stress and the plant hormone ethylene, maize (Zea mays) forms aerenchyma in root cortical cells by programmed cell death (PCD). The aim of this study was to understand the molecular mechanism of ethylene-induced aerenchyma formation by identifying genes that are up- or down-regulated by ethylene treatment in the maize root cortical cells isolated by laser microdissection.

Project description:The goal of our microarray experiments was twofold: 1) Compare the gene expression profile of acaricide resistant spider mite strains (MAR-AB and MR-VP) with that of a susceptible spider mite strain (London); 2) Study gene expression changes in spider mites from the London strain upon transfer from bean, a suitable host, to tomato, a less favorable host. These gene expression changes upon host change were measured for three timepoints (2 hour on tomato (Tomato-2h), 12 hour on tomato (Tomato-12h) and 5 generations on tomato (Tomato-5G)). 23 samples were analyzed: 6 biological replicates for MR-VP, 5 biological replicates for MAR-AB and four biological replicates each for Tomato-2h, Tomato-12h and Tomato-5G

Project description:In this study, we present a follow up investigation on the effects of argon plasma on vegetative growing Bacillus subtilis 168 (see GSE27113). A growth chamber system suitable for low temperature gas plasma treatment of bacteria in liquid medium enabled a first glimpse on the complex cellular response. In order to gain further knowledge, a second kind of plasma treatment was applied and combined proteomic and transcriptomic analyses were used to investigate the specific stress response of B. subtilis cells to treatment with not only argon but also air plasma. Besides similar cellular responses, due to both argon and air plasma treatment, a variety of different responses such as growth retardation and morphological changes were observed. Furthermore, we analyzed the specific response to DNA damages and oxidative stress. The biological findings such as oxidative stress responses were supported by the detection of reactive plasma species by OES and FTIR measurements. Cells were grown in LB medium. At OD540 of 0.5, air plasma treatment was set for 15 min with a discharge power of 7.4 W. Samples for mircroarray analysis were taken 5 min after the 15 min plasma treatment. Microarray hybridizations were performed with RNA from three biological replicates. The individual samples were labeled with Cy5; a reference pool containing equal amounts of RNA from all samples was labeled with Cy3.

Project description:Here, we investigated for the first time the systems-wide response of B. subtilis to different simultaneous stresses, i.e. nutrient limitation and high osmolarity. To address the anticipated complexity of the cellular response networks, we combined chemostat experiments under conditions of carbon limitation, salt stress and osmoprotection with multi-omics analyses at the transcriptome, proteome, metabolome and fluxome levels. Our results indicate that the flux through central carbon and energy metabolism is very robust under all conditions studied. The key to achieve this robustness is the adjustment of the biocatalytic machinery to compensate for solvent-induced impairment of enzymatic activities during osmotic stress. The accumulation of the exogenously provided osmoprotectant glycine betaine helps the cell to rescue enzyme activities in the presence of high salt. A major effort of the cell during osmotic stress is the production of the compatible solute proline. This is achieved by the concerted adjustment of multiple reactions around the 2-oxoglutarate node, which drives metabolism towards the proline precursor glutamate. The fine-tuning of the transcriptional and metabolic networks involves functional modules that overarch the individual pathways. We applied transcriptomic, mass spectrometry-based protein, metabolite and 13C-metabolic flux analysis techniques to B. subtilis cells grown under well-controlled conditions in a glucose-limited chemostat at a growth rate of 0.1 h-1 under i) reference conditions, ii) in the presence of 1.2 M NaCl, and iii) in the presence of 1.2 M NaCl and 1 mM GB. Microarray hybridizations were performed with RNA from three biological replicates. The individual samples were labeled with Cy5; a reference pool containing equal amounts of RNA from all 9 samples was labeled with Cy3.

Project description:The plant circadian enables plants to adjust their physiology and modulate their developmental responses in anticipation of diurnal and seasonal changes in environmental conditions. Thus, it makes an important contribution to overall fitness. The complex regulatory network underlying the oscillatory mechanism of the clock is now well characterised, but we still know relatively little about how downstream processes are controlled. In order to investigate this question we identified genes that are under direct control of one of the oscillator components, a MYB transcription factor known as LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (LHY). 2-week-old wild-type (Ws) and LHY knock-out (lhy-21) seedlings were harvested 2 h after dawn. Tissue was cross-linked using 1% formaldehyde for 10 min. Chromatin was extracted and used for immunoprecipitation using an antibody to the full-length LHY protein. The immunoprecipitated DNA was sequenced using Illumina technology. LHY binding regions were identified as genomic regions that showed over-representation of reads in the wild-type sample as compared to the LHY knock-out sample.

Project description:The first described feedback loop of the Arabidopsis circadian clock is based on reciprocal regulation between TOC1 and CCA1/LHY. CCA1 and LHY are MYB transcription factors that bind directly to the TOC1 promoter to negatively regulate its expression. Conversely, the activity of TOC1 has remained less well characterized. Genetic data supports that TOC1 is necessary for the reactivation of CCA1/LHY, but there is little description of its biochemical function. Here we show that TOC1 occupies specific genomic regions in the CCA1 and LHY promoters. Purified TOC1 binds directly to DNA through its CCT domain, which is similar to known DNA binding domains. Chemical induction and transient overexpression of TOC1 in Arabidopsis seedlings cause repression of CCA1/LHY expression demonstrating that TOC1 can repress direct targets, and mutation or deletion of the CCT domain prevents this repression showing that DNA binding is necessary for TOC1 action. Furthermore, we use the Gal4/UAS system in Arabidopsis to show that TOC1 acts as a general transcriptional repressor, and that repression activity is in the Pseudoreceiver (PR) domain of the protein. To identify the genes regulated by TOC1 on a genomic scale, we couple TOC1 chemical induction with microarray analysis and identify new potential TOC1 targets and output pathways. Together these results define the biochemical action of the core clock protein TOC1 and refine our perspective on how plant clocks function. Keywords: Expression profiling by array wild type (Col-0) and ALC::TOC1 were sown on Murashige-Skoog with 0.8% agar, stratified for 48 hours and grown in12:12 light:dark (LD) for 12 days and either left in LD or transferred to constant light (LL) and then grown for one more day before the start of the experiment. Tissue was submerged in Murashige-Skoog media supplemented with 2.5% ethanol or no ethanol (mock) and with 20mM MG132 for 3 hours and harvested at ZT1. Three replicates each of the seedlings were collected and frozen in liquid nitrogen.

Project description:Inverted repeats (IRs) can facilitate structural variation as crucibles of genomic rearrangement. Complex DUP-TRP/INV-DUP rearrangements that contain breakpoint junctions within IRs have been recently associated with both MECP2 duplication syndrome (MIM#300260) and Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD, MIM#312080). We investigated 17 unrelated PMD subjects with copy number gains at the PLP1 locus including triplication and quadruplication of specific genomic intervals M-bM-^@M-^S 16/17 were found to have a DUP-TRP/INV-DUP rearrangement product. An IR distal to PLP1 facilitates DUP-TRP/INV-DUP formation as well as an inversion structural variation found frequently amongst normal individuals. We show that a homologyM-bM-^@M-^Tor homeologyM-bM-^@M-^Tdriven replicative mechanism of DNA repair can apparently mediate template switches within stretches of microhomology. Moreover, we provide evidence that quadruplication, and potentially higher order amplification of a genomic interval, can occur in a manner consistent with rolling circle amplification as predicted by the microhomology mediated break induced replication (MMBIR) model. To determine size, genomic extent and gene content for each rearrangement, we used a customized tiling-path oligonucleotide microarray spanning the Xq22 chromosomal region to query the genomic DNA of 7 males with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, and 5 unaffected or carrier/unaffected family members. A 4x44k Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, CA) microarray was designed using the Agilent e-array website targeting the region of the genome encompassing the dosage-sensitive PLP1 gene.

Project description:Aerenchyma is a specialized tissue consisting of longitudinal gas spaces, which enables internal movement of gases (e.g., O2, CO2, ethylene and methane), in plant roots, petioles and stems. Especially, internal transport of oxygen via aerenchyma from shoots to roots is very important for adaptation or survival of plants under waterlogged condition. To identify aerenchyma formation-associated genes expressed in maize root, we used LM combined with a microarray for monitoring genes expressed in root cortical cells under three conditions: under aerobic condition and under waterlogged condition with and without pretreatment with 1-MCP, an inhibitor of ethylene perception. For the waterlogging treatments, the primary root (but not the shoots) was waterlogged. Two and half day-old-seedlings were pre-treated with an inhibitor of ethylene perception 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP; 1 ppm) for 12 hours before the waterlogging treatment. Three-day-old seedlings were growing under aerated condition at the same time with other treatments as a control. Total RNA was extracted from root cortex cells from the segment of the primary root, 0.5 cm long: from 1.5 to 2 cm from the junction shoot-root derived from 3-days-old maize seedlings, and subjected to 44k oligo-DNA microarray (1. Aerated vs Hypoxia, 2. Hypoxia+MCP vs Hypoxia) with 3 biological replicates and color swaps.
