C. elegans L4 hypodermal RNA polymerase DamID
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To adapt RNA polymerase DamID (RAPID) for FLP-mediated spatial control in Caenorhabditis elegans, we inserted a Dam::rpb-6 fusion gene downstream of a FRT-flanked mCh::his-58 cassette and under control of the hsp-16.41 promoter. We introduced a single copy of this construct into the C. elegans genome and crossed the resulting line with a dpy-7p::FLP driver to enable basal Dam::rpb-6 expression in the hypodermis. Nematodes were cultured at 20 degrees Celcius to ensure low levels of Dam::RPB-6 expression in the hypodermis and total genomic DNA was purified from L4 larvae. DNA from animals expressing GFP::Dam was used to control for unspecific methylation. The genome-wide association profile of Dam::RPB-6 was determined by deep sequencing, which revealed a list of 2331 protein coding genes with FDR < 0.05.
