Project description:Gene expression and H3K27 tri-methylation analysis of meristematic tissue (Me) and young leaves (Le) isolated by manual dissection of clv3-9 plants
Project description:For the histone methylation analysis of undifferentiated and differentiated tissues a meristem enriched fraction and young leaves (up to 3 mm leaf blade length) were isolated from clavata3-9 plants. Clavata3-9 mutants harbour larger shoot apical meristems than wild type plants enabling the preparation of meristematic tissue by manual dissection. Samples from both tissues were used for expression and histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) analysis. Tissues for expression and H3K27me3 ChIP-chip analyses were simultaneously harvested.

Meristem enriched samples (Me1 and Me2) and young leaf samples (Le1 and Le2) of clavata3-9 plants were isolated and hybridised to whole genome tiling arrays [platform GPL3371]. Two biological replicates were performed.

Samples from both tissues were used for expression and histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) analysis. Tissues for expression and H3K27me3 ChIP-chip analyses were simultaneously harvested. Meristem enriched samples (XMe1 and XMe2) and young leaf samples (XLe1 and XLe2) of clavata3-9 plants were isolated and hybridised to Agilent 44 k arrays [G2519F, V4 (Agilent, Santa Clara)]. Two biological replicates were performed.
Project description:We isolated the meristematic and elongation zones of Col-0, upb1-1 mutant and 35S::UPB1-3YFP/upb1-1 plants by micro-dissection and extracted RNA from each section independently. To identify genes that might mediate UPB1 function we conducted a series of microarray experiments. The spatial distribution of the UPB1 protein suggested that it might exert a different effect on gene expression in the meristematic and elongation zones. Therefore, we isolated the meristematic and elongation zones by micro-dissection and extracted RNA from each section independently.

The spatial distribution of the UPB1 protein suggested that it might exert a different effect on gene expression in the meristematic and elongation zones. Therefore, we isolated the meristematic and elongation zones by micro-dissection and extracted RNA from each section independently. Total RNA was isolated from approximately 60 meristem- and elongation zones of Col-0, upb1-1 and 35S::UPB1-3YFP #2 6 day old plants. Two biological replicates were performed for each experiment.
Project description:The shoot apical meristem (SAM) of angiosperm plants is a highly organized minute structure that gives rise to all above-ground organs. The SAM is divided into three different functional domains. The central zone (CZ) at the SAM tip harbors the self-renewing pluripotent stem cells and the organizing center, providing daughter cells that are continuously displaced into the interior rib zone (RZ) or to the surrounding peripheral zone (PZ), from which organ primordia are initiated. Despite the constant flow of cells from the CZ into the RZ or PZ, and cell recruitment for primordium formation, a stable balance is maintained between the distinct cell populations in the SAM. Here we combined an in depth phenotypic analysis with a comparative RNA-Seq approach to characterize meristems from selected combinations of clavata3 (clv3), jabba-1D (jba1D) and erecta (er) mutants. We demonstrate that CLV3 restricts meristem expansion along the apical basal axis, while class III HD-ZIP and ER pathways restrict meristem expansion laterally, but in distinct and possibly perpendicular orientations. Our k-means analysis reveals that clv3, jba-1D/+ and er lead to meristem enlargement by affecting different aspects of meristem function, e.g., that clv3 displays increase in stem cell population, whereas jba-1D/+ er exhibits increase in mitotic activity and in meristematic cell population. We demonstrate that thecombination of genetic and mRNA-Seq comparative approach provides a precise and sensitive method to identify cell type specific transcriptomes in a small structure such as the SAM. Ten samples enriched in shoot apical meristem tissue were analyzed, corresponding to 5 different genotypes (Col-0, clv3-2, jba-1D/+, jba-1D/+ er-20, and jba-1D/+ er-20 clv3-2) at two different developmental stages (8-day-old seedlings and 15-day-old seedlings).
