Polysome profiling and mRNA-seq to quantify translational gene regulation in dietary restricted C. elegans and in a long-lived daf-2:rsks-1 double mutant.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Dietary restriction (DR) and loss of the genes rsks-1 and daf-2 increase longevity in C. elegans. Polysome profiling allows actively translated mRNA bound by multiple ribosomes to be isolated and compared to the total mRNA present. In this project, we differentiate transcriptional and translational changes in gene expression in C. elegans by combining polysome profiling and mRNA-sequencing. By comparing gene abundance between the two RNA pools, genes with altered translational regulation under DR and in the mutant can be identified.
