Project description:We used the DamID method to systematically identify the binding sites of Ecdysone Receptor and its heterodimeric partner USP across the whole genome in Drosophila Kc cells. We find that the EcR sites are a subset of the USP sites and that only a proportion are ecdysone regulated from an accompanying ecdysone profiling study. The role of EcR/USP in the ecdysone network appears to be coordinated by the recruitment of many transcription factors as well as signaling molecules. Keywords: DamID, chromatin profiling, DNA microarray
Project description:This study examines the changes in genes expression that occur in Drosophila melanogaster during the ecdysone response as well as during RNAi knockdown of the insulator protein, CP190. Analysis was performed in Kc cells after 0, 3, and 48 hours of ecdysone treatment in the presence of either control or CP190 knockdown.
