Transcription profiling of Drosophila expressing DHR96 under heat-shock control to test whether DHR96 is sufficient to affect detoxification genes in the absence of a xenobiotic insult


ABSTRACT: DHR96 plays a role in regulating xenobiotic responses in Drosophila. Using a gain-of-function approach we test whether DHR96 is sufficient to affect detoxification genes in the absence of a xenobiotic insult. Experiment Overall Design: A transgenic line that expresses a full-length DHR96 cDNA under heat-shock control was generated by standard P-element-mediated transformation, using w1118 as a host strain. Control flies are therefore w1118 without any transgene. Larvae were staged at the molt from L2 to L3, and heat-treated after 3 hours for one hour at 37.5 degrees (in vials). Finally, RNA was extracted 4 hours later.

Exposure to xenobiotics such as plant toxins, pollutants, or prescription drugs triggers a defense response, inducing genes that encode key detoxification enzymes. Although xenobiotic responses have been studied in vertebrates, little effort has been made to exploit a simple genetic system for characterizing the molecular basis of this coordinated transcriptional response. We show here that approximately 1000 transcripts are significantly affected by phenobarbital treatment in Drosophila. We als  ...[more]
