Project description:Transcriptional profiling of C. elegans worms from (1) dauer stage, or (2) dauer-exit at 12 hours stage, compared to mix-stage worms as a common reference. The goal was to determine genes regulated during dauer development and recovery or exit from dauer stage. This data was then compared to data generated for corresponding developmental stages in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus (see NCBI GEO series GSE31861) , to study evolution of developmental pathways regulating dauer development.

The goal was to determine genes regulated during dauer development and recovery or exit from dauer stage. This data was then compared to data generated for corresponding developmental stages in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus (separate data-sets on a custom microarray platform designed by us and manufactured by Agilent) , to study evolution of developmental pathways regulating dauer development. Two-condition experiments. Experiment 1 = Dauers vs. Mix-stage worms. 4 biological replicates for each condition, including 2 dye-swaps. Experiment 2 = Dauer-Exit at 12 hour time-point s vs. Mix-stage worms. 4 biological replicates for each condition, including 2 dye-swaps. Total samples from both experiments 1 and 2 = 8.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of C. elegans young adult worms exposed to pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis DB27 for 4 hours versus age-matched worms exposed to onctrol lab food E. coli OP50. The goal was to identify genes regulated in response to pathogen. The broader goal of study was to study evolution of pathogen response by comparing this expression profile to that obtained by exposing the nematode Pristionchus pacificus to the same pathogen. Other experiments which are a part of this study include expression profiling of C. elegans and P. pacificus on other pathogens including Staphylococcus aureus, Serratia marcescens, Xenorhabdus nematophila. Keywords: Expression profiling by array

Project description:These are the 94 microarray experiments that are published in the paper: John Wang and Stuart K. Kim. Global analysis of dauer gene expression in Caenorhabditis elegans, Development 2003 130: 1621-1634. There are 94 individual microarray experiments divided into 3 broad experiments. The first experiment is a time course of dauer exit; each time course is labeled as "Dauer MTC#". The second experiment is a time course of L1 development after starvation arrest; each time couse is labeled "L1 MTC#". The final experiment is a comparison of pure dauers (0 hours) versus 12 hours after dauer exit and are labeled "Dauer Adjust". Every time course was repeated 4 times (#N)however for the dauer 4 and 7 hour time points there are only 3 replicates. For instance, all the time points labeled as "Dauer MTC#1" are from the same starting pool of dauer worms that were aliquoted into 10 fractions and analyzed at the time indicated. Every sample is compared to a common reference RNA that is used throughout all the hybridizations. In some cases there is a "-2" after the hour designation; this means the first hybridization failed for some technical reason and thus the second hybridization (same RNA) is reported.
