Project description:Effect of CaM overexpression on Arabidopsis transcriptome. Unlike animals, plants are immobile and cannot simply move away from unfavourable environments and thus have developed complex mechanisms to respond to and sense biotic and abiotic signals. These stimuli often lead to tightly controlled changes in cytoplasmic free calcium concentration [Ca2+]cyt termed "calcium signatures" which are thought to be, at least partly, responsible for the specificity of plant responses to the environment. However little is known about how exactly these calcium signatures are decoded into specific end-responses. Calmodulin (CaM) is the most well characterised Ca2+ binding protein and is the primary sensor of changing [Ca2+]. Upon binding Ca2+ CaM undergoes a conformational change allowing binding and activation of a wide variety of target proteins. In plants CaM exists in gene families encoding multiple isoforms. The expression of individual CaM genes can be differentially regulated and isoforms may be differentially localised. Furthermore specific isoforms can bind and activate different target proteins. These features of plant CaM allow the possibility of specificity during calcium signalling in response to specific stimuli. The effect of overexpression of four CaM protein isoforms on the Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome will be investigated. Ten day old transgenic Arabidopsis seedlings (containing estradiol inducible CaM overexpression constructs) were induced for 9hrs in 5uM estradiol with appropriate water (0.025% DMSO) and empty vector controls.

Project description:We report the application of RNA-seq for molecular profiling of cultured, cortical astrocytes. Our data set is based on about 40 million unique reads per sample in four independent mRNA preparations. Cortical astrocytes are a prototypical cell model for investigating calcium signaling. For analysis of calcium fluxes, we performed direct calcium imaging in the endoplasmic reticulum and in the cytosol. We describe in our study the physiological profile of homeostatic and agonist-induced calcium fluxes. Furthermore, we show how ER calcium release shapes the cytosolic calcium signal. This transcriptome dataset was used to profile the calcium toolkit of astrocytes. The data suggest that a small number of calcium signaling-related proteins mediate calcium homeostasis in astrocytes.

Project description:Plants transcriptome react to environment temperature changes profoundly. In Arabidopsis seedlings, genes respond to temperature fluctuations to adopt the ever-changing ambient environment. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying heat stress response progress in Arabidopsis.

Project description:We present a draft genome assembly that includes 200 Gb of Illumina reads, 4 Gb of Moleculo synthetic long-reads and 108 Gb of Chicago libraries, with a final size matching the estimated genome size of 2.7 Gb, and a scaffold N50 of 4.8 Mb. We also present an alternative assembly including 27 Gb raw reads generated using the Pacific Biosciences platform. In addition, we sequenced the proteome of the same individual and RNA from three different tissue types from three other species of squid species (Onychoteuthis banksii, Dosidicus gigas, and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) to assist genome annotation. We annotated 33,406 protein coding genes supported by evidence and the genome completeness estimated by BUSCO reached 92%. Repetitive regions cover 49.17% of the genome.

Project description:Purpose: Compare the transcriptional profile of staurosporine-treated cells in Neurospora crassa wild type cells grown with different availabilities of calcium. Methods: Conidial suspensions were obtained and 1 x 106 cells/ml incubated in minimal medium (with the indicated concentrations of calcium) for 6 hours (26M-BM-:C, 140 rpm, constant light) followed by the addition of staurosporine (or DMSO) and growth for 1 more hour. For the experiments in 0 Ca2+ or 20 mM CaCl2 media, the concentration of KH2PO4 in the 50x VogelM-bM-^@M-^Ys stock solution was limited to 10 mM to avoid precipitation with supplemental calcium. Cells were harvested using 0.45 M-NM-<m filters and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was isolated by the Trizol-Phenol-Chloroform method. After digestion of 25 M-NM-<g RNA with TURBO DNAse (Life Technologies), mRNA was purified using Dynabeads oligo(dT) magnetic beads (Life Technologies). The mRNA was chemically fragmented using the Ambion RNA fragmentation kit (Life Technologies). First and second strand cDNA synthesis was achieved using appropriate kits (Life Technologies). The illumina TruSeq kit was employed to generate the cDNA libraries with indexing adapters essentially following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocol. After purification of the libraries with AMPure XP beads (Roche), the quality of the libraries was analyzed in a Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. The cDNA libraries were sequenced in a illumina HiSeq2000 and single reads of 50 bp were obtained. Sequencing data was handled essentially with Tophat, Cufflinks and Cuffdiff. Expression levels are presented as Fragments Per Kilobase of transcript per Million mapped reads (FPKM). Results: Differences in the concentration of extracellularly available Ca2+ result in distinct transcriptional programs. Conclusions: Our transcriptomic analysis provides a reference dataset for future investigations on the role of Ca2+ in fungal biology. Transcriptional profile of staurosporine-treated Neurospora crassa wild type cells growing with different concentrations of calcium was compared using illumina HiSeq2000 and single reads of 50 bp.
