Project description:We established a novel in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL), in which xylem and phloem differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons To isolate phloem-specific genes in VISUAL, we performed GeneChip analysis after cell-sorting experiments with SEOR1pro::SEOR1-YFP.
Project description:We established a novel in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL), in which xylem and phloem differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons To investigate the effects of differenet sugars in VISUAL, we performed GeneChip analysis .
Project description:We established a novel in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL), in which xylem and phloem differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons To compare gene expression profiles between WT and apl during vascular development, we performed GeneChip analysis using VISUAL.
Project description:We established a novel in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL-CC), in which phloem companion cell (CC) differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons. To compare gene expression profiles between VISUAL and VISUAL-CC, we conducted GeneChip analysis using two different in vitro cultures. CC-S means a sample that strongly induces CC differentiation. CC-M means a sample that moderately induces CC differentiation. V means a VISUAL sample, that does not induce CC differentiation at all.
Project description:We used in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL), in which xylem and phloem differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons To investigate temporal gene expression profiles during ectopic vascular cell defferentiaction processes, we performed GeneChip analysis using VISUAL.
Project description:We have previously established an in vitro tissue culture system (named VISUAL; Kondo et al., 2016), in which xylem and phloem differentiation can be induced with Arabidopsis thaliana cotyledons To compare gene expression profiles between WT and bes1 during vascular development, we performed GeneChip analysis using VISUAL.
Project description:Abelson virus (v-Abl)-transformed pre-B cell lines from BM of dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp (4470; 4475) and dcrfl/+; R26R-yfp mice (4483) are treated with a transducible Cre protein (Tat-Cre) to induce deletion of the dicer-1 gene in vitro. Cre activity is conveniently monitored by concomitant expression of YFP. To obtain Dicer KO cells, YFP+ cells from dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp (4470_YFP; 4475_YFP) cultures treated with Tat-cre were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and further propagated in cell culture. As controls, we used non-deleted, YFP- cells sorted from dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp cultures (4470; 4475) treated with Tat-cre, and YFP+ deleted cells from dcrfl/+; R26R-yfp cultures (4483_YFP). To validate this system, various cell populations were sorted and analyzed for Dicer protein and miRNA expression. In the Dicer KO pro-B cell lines, Western analysis indicated that Dicer protein was efficiently ablated, and Northern blots demonstrated that the levels of mature miR-17 and miR-191 were drastically reduced.
