Project description:We have used microarrays to identify DSX occupancy signal in adult female fatbody using the DamID protocol. We have performed DamID-chip on adult female fatbody with three biological replicates.
Project description:We have adapted the DamID protocol for use with high throughput sequencing. We have used DamID to identify the positions within the Drosophila genome where the transcription factor DSX is bound. We sequenced DpnI-digested genomic DNA from fly tissues containing UAS-Dam (control) or UAS-Dam-DsxF or UAS-Dam-DsxM.

We sequenced DpnI-digested genomic DNA from fly tissues containing UAS-Dam (control) or UAS-Dam-DsxF or UAS-Dam-DsxM. We have performed DamID-seq on adult male and female fatbody and on ovary. We used two biological replicates for each tissue and sex.
Project description:We recently identified a missense mutation in Nucleoporin107 (Nup107; D447N) underlying XX-ovarian-dysgenesis (XX-OD), a disorder characterized by underdeveloped and dysfunctional ovaries. Specific knockdown of Nup107 in the somatic gonadal cells and moreover, modelling of the human mutation in Drosophila result in ovarian-dysgenesis-like phenotypes in female flies. The aberrant phenotypes in larval and adult ovaries compromised for Nup107 are associated with hyperactivation of BMP signalling. Transcriptomic analysis identified the somatic sex-determination gene Doublesex (dsx) and the extracellular metalloprotease AdamTS-A as targets of Nup107. Either loss or gain of Dsx in the gonadal soma is sufficient to respectively mimic or rescue the phenotypes induced by Nup107 loss. Furthermore, adamTS-A is transcriptionally regulated by Dsx, and its knockdown in the somatic gonad hyperactivates BMP signaling and to a large extent recapitulates loss of Nup107 phenotypes. Thus, Dsx acts downstream of Nup107 to impact female germline stem cells via sex-specific modulation of the BMP pathway.
Project description:H3-ChIP-seq was performed in order to analyze changes in nucleosomal occupancy after depletion of CTCF/P190 and ISWI from Drosophila S2 cells Histone H3 ChIP-seq from Drosophila S2 cells after CTCF/CP190 or ISWI-specific RNAi treatment

Project description:ChIP-chip experiment for nuclear pore proteins Nup153 and Mtor in Drosophila S2 and Kc cells. This experiment is related to E-MEXP-2523.
Project description:We have investigated the effect of RRP6 depletion on the transcriptome of S2 cells using Affymetrix whole-genome tiling arrays. We have also carried out Illumina ChIP-seq analysis of RRP6 genome occupancy in control S2 cells (GFP-KD) and in cells depleted of SU(VAR)3-9.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of the antennae of adult honeybee workers with a dsx stop/stop mutation and wild-type workers was performed by RNA-Seq. Gene expression of the dsx stop/stop and wild type female workers was compared.
