Project description:Investigation of partial genome gene expression level changes in a Desulfovibrio africanus during exponential and stationary phase growth in the presence and absence of 5 ug/L Hg2+ (as HgNO3). Desulfovibrio africanus is a known mercury methylating bacteria A 3 chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate cultures of Desulfovibrio africanus with 5 ug/L Hg during exponential phase growth, three seperate cultures of Desulfovibrio africanus with 5 ug/L Hg during stationary phase growth, three cultures of Desulfovibrio africanus without Hg during exponential phase growth, and Desulfovibrio africanus without Hg during stationary phase growth. Each chip measures the expression level of 4,585 genes and intergenic regions from Desulfovibrio africanus strain Walvis Bay on a custom Nimblegen format with 75-mer probes with tiled in 4-plex format.

Project description:We identified 174 miRNAs expressed in Volvox carteri. Some of Volvox miRNAs are highly enriched in gonidia or somatic cells. Subsequently, we predicted the targets of Volvox miRNAs and found many of target genes were regulated through mRNA degradation. Conservation analysis suggests the common origin of miRNA between Volvox and Chlamydomonas and high frequency of birth and death of Volvox miRNAs.

Project description:The green alga Volvox carteri is a model organism for the development of multicellularity. It has a spherical shape with a complete division of labor between around 2000 somatic cells and 16 reproductive cells. When comparing Volvox with its unicellular relative Chlamydomonas rheinhardtii, one striking observation is the similarity in the protein coding genes [1]. Additionally, Baulcombe and colleagues showed that Chlamydomonas contains functional RNAi and miRNA machineries [2]. We deep sequenced small RNAs associated with one Argonaute protein of the female Volvox strain Vol6 during its vegetative growth phase. Using these data, we established a miRNA identification pipeline that takes into account plant miRNA feature in general and also uses parameters employed in finding miRNAs in Chlamydomonas. Other small RNAs that are functionally incorporated into Ago are characterized. 1. Prochnik, S.E., et al., Genomic analysis of organismal complexity in the multicellular green alga Volvox carteri.

Project description:The green alga Volvox carteri is a model organism for the development of multicellularity. It has a spherical shape with a complete division of labor between around 2000 somatic cells and 16 reproductive cells. When comparing Volvox with its unicellular relative Chlamydomonas rheinhardtii, one striking observation is the similarity in the protein coding genes [1]. Additionally, Baulcombe and colleagues showed that Chlamydomonas contains functional RNAi and miRNA machineries [2]. We deep sequenced small RNAs of the female Volvox strain HK10 in different life stages (asexual reproduction to sexual reproduction), each time dividing the samples into somatic cells and reproductive cells. This allowed for the observation not only of differences in individual life stages, but also for monitoring sRNA content in the two cell types. We show that Volvox expresses miRNAs and that they are 2’-O-methylated at the 3’ end. The expression profiles of several miRNAs were validated by Northern blotting showing a differential expression both between cell types and between life stages. Intriguingly, most miRNAs do not seem to be conserved between Volvox and Chlamydomonas, raising the interesting question if this changed miRNome leads to differently targeted mRNAs thus resulting in cell differentiation. Since only little is known about the transcriptome of Volvox, we performed RNASeq in order to analyze potential miRNA targets. In conclusion, most miRNA in Volvox are not conserved in Chlamydomonas although the two species are evolutionary close together. This suggests that dramatic changes in the miRNA expression might be one of the driving forces for the development of multicellularity. 1.
