Project description:a plep-1 mutant (MosI insertion line) was compared to the reference strain N2 N2 and plep-1 samples were competitively hybridised against a pooled reference sample, with 3 biological and 4 technical replicates each
Project description:modENCODE_submission_656 This submission comes from a modENCODE project of Robert Waterston. For full list of modENCODE projects, see http://www.genome.gov/26524648 Project Goal: Our experiments are designed to detect all C. elegans transcripts by hybridizing RNA to commerically available genome tiling arrays. To maximize the chances of detecting rare transcripts with limited expression in specific cells, we are extracting RNA from selected embryonic cells isolated by FACS and from postembryonic cells by use of the mRNA tagging method. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Keywords: Transcript tiling array analysis EXPERIMENT TYPE: Transcript tiling array analysis.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of C. elegans nasp-1 / btr-1 mutant worms versus wild type N2 strain, both exposed to the bacterial pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis DB27.
Project description:This experiment investigates changes in gene expression upon Orsay virus infection and between males and hermaphrodites in the nematode Ceanorhabditis elegans. The laboratory reference strain N2 was used. For this strain, males are less susceptible to Orsay virus infection than hermaphrodites. The goal of the experiment was to identify genes that show different expression patterns for both sexes upon Orsay virus infection. We mock-treated or infected 48h-old C. elegans populations with Orsay virus and took samples 30-hours after infection. For each treatment-sex combination 8 samples were collected. Thereafter RNA was isolated, labelled, and hybridized on microarray. The gene-expression dynamics of previously identified genes (e.g. from literature and from a highly replicated N2 versus CB4856 experiment) were analyzed.
Project description:modENCODE_submission_2441 This submission comes from a modENCODE project of Michael Snyder. For full list of modENCODE projects, see http://www.genome.gov/26524648 Project Goal: We are identifying the DNA binding sites for 300 transcription factors in C. elegans. Each transcription factor gene is tagged with the same GFP fusion protein, permitting validation of the gene's correct spatio-temporal expression pattern in transgenic animals. Chromatin immunoprecipitation on each strain is peformed using an anti-GFP antibody, and any bound DNA is deep-sequenced using Solexa GA2 technology. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf EXPERIMENT TYPE: CHIP-seq.

Project description:Analysis of atsf1-2 mutant seedlings for pre-mRNA splicing defect. The atsf1-2 mutant is a homozygous T-DNA insertion line isolated from a SALK line, SALK_062177. Results identify transcripts with altered alternative splicing pattern in the atsf1-2 mutant. We used microarrays to examine the transcriptome profile in the atsf1-2 mutant and identified genes of which transcript levels were changed significantly.
Project description:Silver-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant was obtained by evolutionary engineering method. Briefly, genetic diversity in reference strain, CEN.PK.113-7D, was increased by ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS)-mutagenesis. The mutant population was passaged several times in gradually increasing silver stress. Several mutant individuals were selected from the final population. Among selected mutant individuals, one of them was much more resistant to silver stress than the reference strain, called as 2E. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis was performed to identify the silver resistance mechanisms in the silver-resistant mutant strain.
Project description:The effect Ds insertion mutation in Ds13-2198-1 line on the gene expression profiles was investigated. The genes for photosynthesis and some transcriptional factors were upregulated while genes for metabolism were downregulated. Keywords: strain comparison
Project description:A Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant with extended chronological life span was obtained by using an evolutionary engineering strategy, based on successive batch cultivation under gradually enhanced caloric restriction. The mutant strain SRM11 was selected which had about 50% longer life span than the reference strain. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis of SRM11 with respect to the reference strain was performed to identify differences in gene expression levels between the two strains.
