Statistical methods established for the genetic analysis of quantitative traits can be applied to gene expression data. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis can associate the expression of genes or groups of genes with particular genomic regions, and thereby identify regions regulating gene expression. A segregating population of 41 doubled haploid (DH) lines from the hard red spring wheat cross RL4452 x 'AC Domain' was used to map expression level polymorphisms.

Project description:The use of statistical tools established for the genetic analysis of quantitative traits can be applied to gene expression data. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis can associate expression of genes or groups of genes with particular genomic regions and thereby identify regions that play a role in the regulation of gene expression. A segregating population of 41 doubled haploid (DH) lines from the hard red spring wheat cross RL4452 x AC Domain was used. This population had previously been mapped with microsatellites and includes a full QTL analysis for agronomic and seed quality traits. Expression analysis from 5 day post anthesis developing seed was conducted on 36 of the 41 DH lines using the Affymetrix wheat array. Expression analysis of developing seeds from field grown material in location 2 identified 10,280 sequences represented by Affymetrix probe sets whose expression varied significantly between genotypes of the population. Of these 1,455 were identified in the point location as well. A sub-set of 542 transcripts were identified that each mapped to a single chromosome interval illustrating that major expression QTLs can be found in wheat. Genomic regions corresponding to multiple expression QTLs were identified that were coincident with previous identified seed quality trait QTL. These regions may be important regulatory regions governing economically important traits. Comparison of expression mapping data with physical mapping for a sub-set of sequences showed that both cis and trans acting expression QTLs were present. Experiment Overall Design: Parental genotypes of mapping population RL4452 x AC Domain with 2 biological replicates per genotype. Grown in the field in a lattice design at SB location with the 41 DH progeny lines.

Project description:Naturally occurring Antisense Transcripts (NATs) compose an emerging group of regulatory RNAs. These regulatory elements appear in all organisms examined, but little is known about global expression of NATs in fungi. Analysis of currently available EST sequences suggests that 352 cis NATs are present in Aspergillus flavus. An Affymetrix GeneChip® microarray containing probes for these cis NATs, as well as all predicted genes in A. flavus, allowed a whole genome expression analysis of these elements in response to two ecologically important temperatures for the fungus. RNA expression analysis showed that 32 NATs and 2709 genes were differentially expressed between 37°C, the optimum temperature for growth, and 28°C, the conducive temperature for the biosynthesis of aflatoxin (AF) and many other secondary metabolites. These NATs correspond to sense genes with diverse functions including transcription initiation, carbohydrate processing and binding, temperature sensitive morphogenesis, and secondary metabolism. This is the first report of a whole genome transcriptional analysis of NAT expression in a fungus and shows that although less than 10% of putative NATs are differentially expressed in response to temperature, some of the NAT-cis gene interactions are likely to be important. Keywords: temperature response 3 samples (reps) for each temperature treatment were analyzed with a total of 6 samples.

Project description:Maize kernels are susceptible to infection by the opportunistic pathogen Aspergillus flavus. Infection results in reduction of grain quality and contamination of kernels with the highly carcinogenic mycotoxin, aflatoxin. To understand host response to infection by the fungus, transcription of approximately 9,000 maize genes were monitored during the host-pathogen interaction with a custom-designed Affymetrix GeneChip® DNA array. More than 1,000 maize genes were found differentially expressed at a fold change of 2 or greater. This included the up regulation of defense-related genes and signaling pathways. Transcriptional changes also were observed in primary metabolism genes. Starch biosynthetic genes were down regulated during infection, while genes encoding maize hydrolytic enzymes, presumably involved in the degradation of host reserves, were up regulated. These data indicate that infection of the maize kernel A. flavus induced metabolic changes in the kernel, including the production of a defense response, as well as a disruption in kernel development. Maize kernels were mock inoculated at the blister (R2) or dough (R4) stage or inoculated with A. flavus at the blister (R2), milk (R3), dough (R4), or dent (R5) stage, and harvested 4 days later. Each treatment consisted of three biological replications. For each biological replication, 8 kernels were ground and RNA was isolated and further processed.

Project description:The fermentable carbohydrate composition of wort and the manner in which it is utilised by yeast during brewery fermentation has a direct influence on fermentation efficiency and quality of the finished product. In this study the response of a brewing yeast strain to changes in wort fermentable carbohydrate concentration and composition during full-scale (3275 hL) brewery fermentation was investigated by measuring transcriptome changes with the aid of oligonucleotide based DNA arrays. Up to 90% of the detectable genes showed a significant (P ≤ 0.05) differential expression pattern during fermentation and the majority of these genes showed either transient or prolonged peaks in expression following the exhaustion of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose from the wort. Those which did not display this apparent carbon catabolite derepression response were mainly those genes involved in cytokinesis and cell budding, which had higher expression values during active growth of cells. Transcriptional activity of many genes was consistent with their known responses to glucose de/repression under laboratory conditions, despite the presence of di- and trisaccharide sugars in the wort.

Project description:Commercial brewing yeast strains are exposed to a number of potential stresses including oxidative stress. The aim of this investigation was to measure the physiological and transcriptional changes of yeast cells during full-scale industrial brewing processes with a view to determining the environmental factors influencing the cellâs oxidative stress response. Cellular antioxidant levels were monitored throughout an industrial propagation and fermentation and microarray analysis was employed to determine transcriptional changes in antioxidant-encoding and other stress response genes. The greatest increase in cellular antioxidants and transcription of antioxidant-encoding genes occurred as the rapidly fermentable sugars glucose and fructose were depleted from the growth medium (wort) and the cell population entered the stationary phase. The data suggest that, contrary to expectation, the oxidative stress response is not influenced by changes in the dissolved oxygen concentration of wort but is initiated as part of a general stress response to growth-limiting conditions, even in the absence of oxygen. A mechanism is proposed to explain the changes in antioxidant response observed in yeast during anaerobic fermentation. The results suggest that the yeast cell does not experience oxidative stress, per se, during industrial brewery handling. This information may be taken into consideration when setting parameters for industrial brewery fermentation.

Project description:Genomic losses on chromosome 16q are among the most frequent alterations found in retinoblastoma. In this study, Affymetrix GeneChip analyses along with LOH analysis of microsatellie markers was used to identify candidate tumor suppressor loci in a set of retinoblastoma. We used microarrays to identify genes differentially expressed in retinoblastoma with LOH on 16q (M19484, M22590, M22641, M22860) compared to retinoblastoma without alterations in this region (M20517, M22067, M22233, M23209, M23449, M23818, M23896, M23978) Experiment Overall Design: To compare the transcriptosomes of retinoblastoma with and without LOH on 16q, total RNA was isolated from a 30 mg block of each tumor and subjected to Affymetrix microarray analysis on HG-U133A arrays.

Project description:The presence of Set2-mediated methylation of H3K36 (K36me) correlates with transcription frequency throughout the yeast genome. K36me targets the Rpd3S complex to deacetylate transcribed regions and suppress cryptic transcription initiation at certain genes. Here, using a genome-wide approach, we report that the Set2-Rpd3S pathway is generally required for controlling acetylation at coding regions. When using acetylation as a functional read-out for this pathway, we discovered that longer genes and, surprisingly, genes transcribed at lower frequency exhibit a stronger dependency. Moreover, a systematic screen using high resolution tiling microarrays allowed us to identify a group of genes that rely on Set2-Rpd3S to suppress spurious transcripts. Interestingly, most of these genes are within the group that depend the same pathway to maintain a hypo-acetylated state at coding regions. These data highlight the importance of using the functional readout of histone codes to define the roles of specific pathways.
