Project description:RNAseq analysis of USP7 conditional knock-out (cKO) mice. They were designed to flox exon 6 of USP7 and to allow deletion of exon 6 upon expression of Cre recombinase 27. USP7FL/FL mice were bred with Vav1-Cre mice to obtain USP7FL/wt-Vav1-Cre mice (heterozygote). USP7FL/FL-Vav1-Cre mice (homozygote) were obtained via breeding of heterozygous cKO mice.
Project description:We used CRISPR/Cas9 to knock in the cancer "hotspot" mutation PIK3CA-H1047R into one or both alleles of a wild-type induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (WTC11; Coriell # GM25256; P37-P38). Three clones from each genotype (wild-type, heterozygous, homozygous) were subjected to single-end mRNA sequencing (mean read depth per sample: 20 million) to determine whether PIK3CA-H1047R exerts allele dose-dependent transcriptional effects. Multidimensional scaling demonstrated distinct transcriptomic signatures of wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous cells. The transcriptome of heterozygous cells was nearly identical to wild-type controls, with only 131 differentially-expressed transcripts (FDR = 0.05). In contrast, homozygosity for PIK3CA-H1047R led to differential expression of 1,914 genes. This indicates widespread transcriptional remodeling with a sharp allele dose-dependency, suggestive of a threshold effect.
Project description:Shank3 is a core excitatory postsynaptic protein expressed in multiple brain regions including the medial prefrontal cortex, striatum, and hippocampus. Shank3 knock-out mice display autism-like behaviors and synaptic dysfunction. To understand molecular mechanisms underlying the behavioral and synaptic changes, we performed transcriptome (RNA-sequencing) analysis of the striatum tissues from 10 to 12-week-old wild-type and Shank3 knock-out/heterozygous mice.
Project description:Genome expression analysis between the yeast wine strain L-846 (diploid heterozygous) and spore derived from it (diploid homozygous).
Project description:The aim of this experiment was to investigate the dysregulation of gene expression in whole E12.5 embryos containing a gene trap (CH) or point mutation (H275R) within the Klf3 gene Affymetrix microarrays were performed on RNA from wildtype, Klf3 H275R/H275R, Klf3 H275R/+, Klf3 CH homozygous and Klf3 CH heterozygous E12.5 embryos Four wildtype replicates, three Klf3 H275R/H275R replicates, four Klf3 H275R/+ replicates, four Klf3 CH homozygous replicates and two Klf3 CH heterozygous replicates of whole E12.5 embryos, litter-matched where possible.
