Project description:Recent whole-genome studies and in-depth expressed sequence tag (EST) analyses have identified most of the developmentally relevant genes in the urochordate, Ciona intestinalis. In this study, we made use of a large-scale oligo-DNA microarray to further investigate and identify genes with specific or correlated expression profiles. This large-scale oligo-DNA microarray for C. intestinalis should facilitate the understanding of global gene expression and gene networks during the development and ageing of a basal chordate. Keywords: gene expression, development, ageing, life cycle
Project description:We report the comprehensive sequencing of small RNA libraries created from different developmental stages (larva and gastrula) of the basal chordate, Ciona intestinalis. These libraries were used for the identification of microRNAs in this organism. Sequencing of small RNA libraries from 2 stages of Ciona intestinalis.
