Project description:Proteins from plant shoot and root tissues were extracted from wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia (Col-0). They were enriched on conditioned U(VI)-loaded and U(VI)-free Duolite C467 beads. The enriched proteins were identified and quantified by label-free shotgun proteomics.
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes Columbia (Col-0) (wild type: WT) was used in this study. After sterilization, the seeds were placed on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 2% (w/v) sucrose for 10 days and then the seedling were transferred to soil under 16 hours light (22°C) / 8 hours dark (18°C) period in growth chamber at a light intensity of 120?150 µmol m-2 s-1. 20-day-old Arabidopsis leaves without bolting were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for RNA and protein and metabolites extraction. Leaves were harvested at three different time points: t = 0 hr (end of night), t = 1 hr (one hour after light turn on) and t = 8 hr (eight hours after light turn on), respectively.
Project description:To comprehensively investigate the effects of glutathione on the gene expression, the microarray analysis was performed in the glutathione-fed wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana. Wild-type Arabidopsis (ecotype Columbia-0) were fed with 1 mM oxidized glutathione (GSSG) and 2 mM reduced glutathione (GSH) for comparison at equal nitrogen equivalents. To examine the effects of glutathione other than nitrogen at equal nitrogen equivalents, plants were fed with 3 mM NH4NO3. Plants grown by water were used as a control.
Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of autotetraploidy on gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana by comparing diploid versus tetraploid transcriptomes. In particular, this included the comparison of the transcriptome of different tetraploid A. thaliana ecotypes (Col-0 vs. Ler-0). The study was extended to address further aspects. One was the comparison of the transcriptomes in subsequent generations. This intended to obtain information on the genome wide stability of autotetraploid gene expression. Another line of work compared the transcriptomes of different diploid vs. tetraploid tissues. This aimed to investigate whether particular gene groups are specifically affected during the development of A. thaliana autotetraploids.

Project description:We performed a transcriptomic analysis of Pi starvation responses in Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia-0) phr1 mutant plants expressing PHR1 in presence of cicloheximide, that inhibit protein translation, thus preventing any effect of PHR1 on the expression of indirect targets. Results show the primary target genes of PHR1 in the responses to Pi starvation.
Project description:We performed a transcriptomic analysis of Pi starvation responses in Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia-0) wild type plants under phosphate starvation stress and in plants with altered PHR1(-like) activity, comparing mutants of phr1 and phr1-phl1 grown in phosphate-lacking medium. Results show the central role of PHR1 and functionally redundant members of its family in the control of transcriptional responses to Pi starvation.
Project description:In order to identify genes specifically involved in the photoperiodic control of the mobilisation programme for starch reserve in Arabidopsis thaliana transcription profiling was performed on the following genotypes Columbia wild type (Col-0), CO overexpressor (35S::CO), CO muntant (co-10), GBSSI mutant (gbs-1), aps1 mutant (aps1) and Columbia with sucrose. The different Arabidopsis thaliana genotype seedlings were cultivated in long day conditions (16 h day/ 8 h dark) at 22 C in controlled environment cabinets for two weeks. Samples were collected at ZT 4, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and processed.
Project description:Untargeted metabolomic analyses were carried out on seed coat/endosperm and seed embryo (dry seeds) of Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia-0 genotype. Three biological replicates were analyzed for each sample.
Project description:To gain further insights into a larger number of processes potentially altered by high nickel (Ni), we performed a transcriptional profiling of whole roots of Arabidopsis thaliana accession Columbia-0 (Col-0) exposed to 100 µM nickel, a concentration that induces slight chlorosis and intermediate inhibition of root and shoot growth.
