Project description:Prunus persica cultivar:Hu Jing Mi Lu1, Hu Jing Mi Lu2, Hu Jing Mi Lu3, Jing Xiu Huang Tao, Yu Lu, Zhong Hua Shou Tao Transcriptome or Gene expression
Project description:Digital gene expression (DGE) profiles based on Illumina RNA-seq technology were applied to investigate the different gene expression patterns in peach fruit mesocarp of four commercial cultivars (‘Hu Jing Mi Lu’-‘HJ’, ‘Yu Lu’-‘YL’, ‘Zhong Hua Shou Tao’-‘ZH’ and ‘Jin Xiu Huang Tao’-‘JX’) and at three ripening stages of ‘HJ’. The aim was to identify the key candidate genes related to the formation of volatile compounds and fruit softening, and to get an insight into molecular mechanisms associated with these two traits from a full transcriptome view. The large set of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and the annotation of each gene provides valuable information for research on other fruit traits
Project description:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish exhausted-exercise model by motorized rodent treadmill. Yu-Ping-Feng-San at doses of 2.18 g/kg was administrated by gavage before exercise training for 10 consecutive days. Quantitative proteomics was performed for assessing the related mechanism of Yu-Ping-Feng-San.
Project description:The expression of long non-coding RNAs - lncRNAs - was profiled in the lung adenocarcinoma patient samples (LUAD, Lu-T) and in normal lung tissues adjacent to tumors (Lu-N) using the Invitrogen NCode Human lncRNA Array Platform. will be published in: Anna Roth et al., Restoring LINC00673 expression triggers cellular senescence in lung cancer
Project description:In order to elucidate the molecular mechanism giving rise to the rare In(Lu) type of Lu(a-b-) blood group phenotype we compared the transcriptome of normal and In(Lu) erythroblasts at different stages of maturation. Many erythroid-specific genes had reduced transcript levels suggesting the phenotype resulted from a transcription factor abnormality. A search for mutations in erythroid transcription factors revealed mutations in the promoter or coding sequence of EKLF in 21 of 24 individuals with the In(Lu) phenotype. In all cases the mutant EKLF allele occurred in the presence of a normal EKLF allele. Individuals with the In(Lu) phenotype have no reported pathology indicating that one functional EKLF allele is sufficient to sustain human erythropoiesis. These data provide the first description of inactivating mutations in human EKLF and the first demonstration of a blood group phenotype resulting from mutations in a transcription factor. Keywords: Time course and cell type comparison.
