Project description:Targeted DamID (TaDa) measures gene expression using a DNA adenine methyltransferase (Dam) fused to RNA polymerase II (Dam Pol II) to methylate DNA as the genome is transcribed (Southall, Gold et al. 2013, PMID: 23792147). Here we use traditional Illumina RNA-Seq to determine if a cell’s expression profile is affected by Dam Pol II expression. Twenty-four hours prior to collection, we ubiquitously drove UAS Dam or UAS Dam Pol II using a tubulin (tub) GAL4 regulated by a temperature sensitive tub GAL80[ts] (McGuire et al. 2003, PMID: 14657498) in adult Drosophila melanogaster (taxon: 7227) whole males, whole females, testes, and ovaries.
