Project description:Transcription factor SoxC is required for all neural development in purple sea urchin S. purpuratus embryos. To begin to develop a gene regulatory network for neural development, we used RNA-Seq to compare transcript populations in SoxC knockdown and control embryos.
Project description:Transcription factor SoxC is required for all neural development in purple sea urchin S. purpuratus embryos. To begin to develop a gene regulatory network for neural development, we used RNA-Seq to compare transcript populations in SoxC knockdown and control embryos. SoxC function was knocked down by morpholino oligo injection. RNA from about 1000 embryos were collected for both control and knockdown samples.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) larvae cultured under three different seawater CO2 concentrations 400, 800, 1200 µatm. The goal was to determine the effects of CO2, an important climate change variable, on global gene expression
Project description:Using hMeDIP-seq we validated the single-base resolution hydroxymethylomes (ACE-seq) of sea urchin, lancelet and zebrafish embryos.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) larvae cultured under three different seawater CO2 concentrations 400, 800, 1200 M-BM-5atm. The goal was to determine the effects of CO2, an important climate change variable, on global gene expression Larvae were cultured under three different seawater CO2 concentrations 400, 800, 1200 M-BM-5atm, each with four replicate cultures, and sampled at two developmental stages (gastrula and pluteus)
