Project description:Examine global gene expression patterns in control and 35S:PAP1 Arabidopsis plants upon environmental perturbation (light and temperature) over the course of the experiments. Experiment Overall Design: Red coloured 35S:PAP1, and empty vector control, plants of Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia were grown under room temperature, high light (RTHL, 22°C, 440 µmol m-2 s-1 irradiance) conditions to promote red leaf colouration. The growth conditions were then changed to a high day temperature, low light (HTLL: 30°C day, 150 µmol m-2 s-1 irradiance) stress treatment for six days, during which time the 35S:PAP1 leaves lost much of their red colouration, turning green. The growth conditions were then returned to a low temperature high light (LTHL, 15°C, 62% RH, 440 µmol m-2 s-1 irradiance) regime to restore the red colouration.

Project description:Batch cultures of P. donghaiense were maintained in 0.22 filtered and autoclaved seawater (30 psu) with K medium, and grown under cool white fluorescent light at an irradiance of 100 μmol quanta m-2 s-1 with a 14:10 h light: dark cycle at 25 ℃. Tripicated experiments at 19, 22, 25 and 28 ℃ were performed in 2 L acid-washed and autoclaved polycarbonate bottles containing 1.6 L medium. To obtain stable metabolic activity of cells, P. donghaiense at each temperature were cultured and semi-continuously diluted daily for approximately 20 days before samplings.

Project description:Iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) are essential nutrients with close geochemical association. They exist at low concentrations in surface waters and may be co-limiting resources for phytoplankton growth. However, the adaptive strategies of photosynthetic organisms to Fe/P co-limitation remain largely unknown. Here, we show that phosphorus deficiency increases the growth of Fe-limited cyanobacteria through a PhoB-mediated regulatory network. In addition to its well-recognized role in controlling phosphate homeostasis, PhoB regulates key metabolic processes crucial for Fe-limited cyanobacteria, including ROS detoxification and Fe uptake. Transcript abundances of PhoB-targeted genes are enriched in samples from the P-deplete ocean, and a conserved PhoB binding site is widely present in the promoters of the targets, suggesting that the strategy we discovered may be highly conserved. Our findings provide important molecular insights into the response of cyanobacteria to simultaneous Fe/P nutrient limitation and help in understanding how nutrient availability affects primary productivity in aquatic environments.

Project description:Ultra-violet (UV) and high-intensity visible (VIS) radiation are environmental stressors known to harm photosynthetic organisms through the generation of reactive intermediates that damage photosynthetic machinery. This study shows the potential of using a thermoacidophilic red alga of the order Cyanidiales to model in situ algal gene expression dynamics as a function of UV exposure and seasonal shifts in UV-VIS intensity. These algae exhibit a dynamic seasonal biomass fluctuation referred to as 'mat decline' where viability drastically decreases as seasonal UV-VIS irradiance intensity increases. In Yellowstone National Park (YNP), temporal experiments coupling UV irradiance manipulations (filtering) with whole-community transcription profiling revealed significant cyanidial gene expression changes occurring as a result of exposure to UV, and that patterns of response adjust across low and high irradiance time periods. Separate analyses examined genes responding to either increasing seasonal UV or VIS intensity, or by the combined effects of both irradiance wavelengths (UV and VIS). Results not only corroborated known physiological changes to solar irradiance, but also suggested the strategies employed to deal with excess VIS and UV intensity may be highly integrated. Finally, a suite of comparative analyses determined the relative utility of environmental transcriptomics technologies in studying ecologically-relevant expression patterns. Results suggest in situ expression profiles will improve understanding of how photosynthetic organisms are responding to environmental stressors as they are observed in nature.

Project description:We elucidate the transcriptome effects of optogenetics on developing neural stem cells population. The application of optogenetics in neural stem cell (NSC), allow photo-modulation of NSC in an activity-dependent manner. This provided spatio-temporal tool for studying activity dependent neurogenesis, including the potential of regulating the differentiation and maturation process of transplanted NSC. Currently, this is mainly driven by virally transfected of Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) gene, which also requires high irradiance and complex in vitro stimulation systems. Additionally, despite the extensive application of optogenetics in neuroscience, the question of what transcriptome changes does optogenetic stimulation induced in developing NSCs have not been elucidated yet. To address these questions, we established a NSC line, expressing high light-sensitivity step-function opsin (SFO) variant of the chimeric channelrhodopsin, ChRFR(C167A) (~40x higher than ChR2), via the non-viral piggyBac transposon system. We set up a simple low-irradiance optogenetics stimulation-incubation system, which sufficiently induced depolarization in differentiating NSCs. We significantly enhance neurogenesis with low power optogenetic stimulation by 3 folds. Through microarray analysis, we have identified the genes and signaling pathways in axonal remodeling, synaptic plasticity and microenvironment modulation from optogenetic stimulation. Our results elucidate the transcriptome effects of optogenetics and the ability to drive neurogenesis with low irradiance optogenetics.

Project description:Transcriptome from high throughput sequencing-by-synthesis is a good resource of molecular markers. In this study, we present utility of massively parallel sequencing by synthesis for profiling the transcriptome of red pepper (Capsicum annuum L. TF68) by 454 GS-FLX pyrosequencing. Through the generation of approximately 30.63 megabases (Mb) of Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) data with the average length of 375 base pairs (bp), 9,818 contigs and 23,712 singletons were obtained by assembly. Using BLAST alignment against NCBI non-redundant and a UniProt protein database, 30% of the tentative consensus sequences were assigned to specific function annotation, while 24% returned alignments of unknown function, leaving up to 46% with no alignment. Functional classification using FunCat revealed that sequences with putative known function were distributed cross 18 categories. Furthermore, over 200 high quality single nucleotide discrepancies were discovered using the Bukang cDNA collection as a reference database. Moreover, 758 simple sequence repeat (SSR) motif loci were mined from over 600 contigs, from which 572 primer sets were designed. The SSR motifs corresponded to di- and tri- nucleotide motifs (27.03 and 61.92%, respectively). These molecular markers may be of great value for application in linkage mapping and association mapping research. 1 sample TF68 accession examined

Project description:Since the molecular mechanism underlying feed efficiency (FE) in slow-growing chickens is poorly understood. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the proteome differences and possible pathways associated with FE in male slow-growing chicken by using a label-free quantitative proteomic approach. At 10 weeks of ages duodenum samples from six animals (three high-FE and three low-FE chickens) were collected for differential abundant proteins (DAPs), protein networks, functional enrichment and pathway analysis. In this study, we found 40 DAPs significantly associated with FE pathways included glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, peroxisome, oxidative phosphorylation, tight junction, and cysteine and methionine metabolism. Thus, the differences of protein driving those pathways affected the FE potential of slow-growing chicken might be interesting candidate biomarkers for genomic selection of animals with a higher efficient feed utilization.

Project description:Calcium (Ca2+) is one of the essential mineral nutrients for plant growth and development. However, the effects of long-term Ca2+ deficiency in orphan crops such as tef (Zucc.) Trotter] which accumulate high levels of Fe in the grains remained unknown. Tef is a staple crop for nearly 70 million people in East Africa, particularly Ethiopia and Eritrea. It is rich in mineral nutrients (Ca+2, Fe, Zn and Mn), vitamins and essential amino acids. In this study, tef plants were grown in hydroponic solution containing optimum (1 mM) or low (0.01 mM) Ca2+ and plant growth parameters and whole genome transcriptome were analyzed. Ca+2-deficient plants exhibited symptoms including leaf necrosis, leaf curling, and growth stunting. Ca2+ deficiency significantly decreased root and shoot Ca+2, potassium (K) and copper content in both root and shoots while it significantly increased root iron (Fe2+) content, suggesting the role of Ca2+ in the uptake and/or translocation of these minerals. Transcriptomic analysis using RNA-seq revealed that members of Ca2+ channels including the cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGC) and glutamate receptor-like channels (GLRs), Ca2+-transporters, Ca2+-binding proteins (CBP) and Ca2+-dependent protein kinases (CDPK) were differentially regulated by Ca+2 treatment. Moreover, several Fe/metal transporters including members of vacuolar Fe transporters (VIT), yellow stripe-like (YSL), natural resistance-associated macrophage protein (NRAMP) and oligo-peptide transporters (OPT) were differentially regulated between shoot and root in response to Ca2+ treatment. Taken together, our findings suggest that Ca2+ deficiency affects plant growth and mineral accumulation by regulating the transcriptomes of several transporters and signaling genes.

Project description:The variability of the marine intertidal environment poses unique challenges for sessile species. Diurnal, tidal, and seasonal cycles introduce drastic variations in temperature, salinity, availability of nutrients and water. The California ribbed mussel Mytilus californianus is a filter feeder that dominates a middle range of the intertidal of many wave-swept rocky shores. The bivalve attaches to the substrate by several byssal threads. This sessile lifestyle allows us to accurately document the thermal history of an individual. We have profiled gene expression in M. californianus during a natural tidal cycle using a cDNA microarray composed of genes from mussels exposed to various stressors. Over three days, mussels were sampled from two sites differing in emersion exposure and average temperature. At each time point, three mussels were cut open in the field and frozen immediately on dry ice and stored at -80 degrees C until the gill, hepatopancreas, and adductor muscle were excised and processed for RNA extraction, reverse transcription, and hybridization to our microarrays. The resulting expression profile showed that genes involved in the cell cycle were diurnally regulated, heat shock proteins increased with temperature, and expression of several hundred other genes varied across the tidal cycle. Tide series (times and tide height): 26th July, low tide 0052, 0.8 ft; high tide 0705, 3.1 ft; low tide 1113, 2.4 ft; high tide 1810, 5.9ft. 27th July, low tide 0154, 0.1 ft; high tide 0837, 3.3 ft; low tide 1216, 2.7ft; high tide 1903, 6.2 ft. 28th July, low tide 0249, -0.6ft; high tide 0943, 3.5 ft; low tide 1323, 2.8ft; high tide 1903, 6.2ft. 15th Aug, low tide 0530, 0.26 ft; high tide 1200, 4.08 ft, low tide 0432, 2.65 ft; high tide 1036, 5.84 ft.
