Project description:We utilized the eyeless sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, to quantify gene expression differences between different colors of light (red, green, blue) and in constant darkness through comparisons of 96 transcriptomes
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE22360: Transcriptomic adaptations to symbiotic life in cnidarians : symbiotic vs bleached Anemonia viridis sea anemones GSE22361: Endoderm- vs ectoderm-specific expression of symbiosis genes in the snakelocks sea anemone Refer to individual Series
Project description:MicroRNAs of bilaterian animals undergo posttranscriptional modifications such as methylation, tailing and trimming that regulate miRNA stability and function. To gain insight on the evolution of miRNA posttranscriptional modification, we studied regulation of miRNA stability by methylation in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, a representative of Cnidaria, the sister group of Bilateria.
