Project description:What is the impact of DNA pol epsilon deficiency on gene expression as well as on the expression of ncRNA, gene silencing? To further investigate the effects of DPB2 over-expression, the transcriptome of DPB2OE lines 1 and 3 was compared to that of wild-type plants by RNA sequencing. Plantlets were grown in vitro on half strength MS for 9 days and used for total RNA extraction. mRNA seq on wild-type Col-0, two DPB2 overexpression lines and one abo4-1 mutant knock out.
