Project description:Transciprional profiling of horn forming region of Bos taurus comparing horned, polled and scurred cattle. 3 condition experiment, Polled vs Horned, Polled vs Scurred, Scurred vs Horned, male and female samples, including dye swaps. 5 chips. No confounding between sex and chip. No confounding between indivdual and chip.
Project description:Gene expression patterns of bronchiolar progenitors and club cells in mouse lung were examined by microarray experiments. Although it has not yet been fully characterized, a subset of epithelial cells lining bronchioles are best understood as bronchiolar progenitors that self-renew over the long term and that can differentiate into more differentiated club cells and ciliated cells. The bronchiolar progenitors are distinct from club cells and characteristically express the alveolar type 2 cell marker, prosurfactant protein C, with lower levels of club cell secretory protein/Scgb1a1. There are also functional differences between them; while club cells can be depleted by naphthalene because of the abundance of cytochrome P450 enzyme Cyp2f2, bronchiolar progenitors are resistant to naphthalene-induced depletion because of defects in the enzyme.
Project description:To determine the global gene occupancy by Wiskott - Aldrich syndrome Protein (WASP) we perform ChIP-seq assay in two lymphoblastoid cell lines. We identify WASP-enriched genes, including several WASP-interaction genes previously reported; in addition, our results suggest the implication of WASP in diverse cellular process
