Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility. Gene expression was measured in whole testis from males aged 62-86 days. Samples include 190 first generation lab-bred male offspring of wild-caught mice from the Mus musculus musculus - M. m. domesticus hybrid zone.
Project description:Total RNAs were extracted from the Testis and Epididymal Caput, Corpus and Cauda tissues of 2-month and 13-month-old WT and Gpx5 KO mice (C57BL/6). The 18 - 40 nt fraction small RNAs and transcriptomes were subjected to library construction and deep sequencing, using Illumina GAIIx or Hiseq 2000.
Project description:Ccnyl1 is a newly identified genes, but the founction of which remained unclear, here we used the Ccnyl1 knockout mice to finding clues for its functional roles We used microarrays to screen the expression differences of genes in testis of WT and Ccnyl1 KO mice We used testis tissues from two month old mice, which were of adult age, and two mice per group
Project description:To futher find the gene expression due to the aromatase overexpression in the mouse testis,we have employ whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes compared to the wild type mice. The testes were taken from 5 month old aromatase overexpression mice and WT mice as control. We investigated genes that were significantly upregulated or downregulated in AROM+ mouse testis compared with WT testis. Two groups: 1) total RNA from three 5 month old AROM+ overexpression transgenic mice testes were collected and processed for microarray;2) total RNA from three 5 month old WT mice testes as control.
Project description:We analysed 3~4 repeats of 3 groups of mouse MII oocytes including 2-month-old WT, 2-month-old Tet2-KO, 11-month-old WT to find Tet2 function on female mice fertility.
