Project description:The Arabidopsis NAC transcription factors SOMBRERO (SMB), BEARSKIN1 (BRN1) and BEARSKIN2 (BRN2) regulate root cap differentiation. In order to identify genes acting downstream of these transcription factors comparable transcriptome analyses were carried out using Agilent expression arrays.
Project description:To identify targets of the NAC transcription factor SOMBRERO (SMB, AT1G79580), we used a dexamethasone-inducible p35S::SMB-GR line (DOI: 10.1105/tpc.109.072272), comparing gene expression in dexamethasone-treated and mock-treated 5-day old seedlings 6 hours after estradiol or mock treatment.
Project description:In this study we analyzed the effect of overexpression of an HA-tagged version of the ERF RAP2.12 on the transcriptome levels in aerobic and hypoxic-treated (O2 21% and 1%, respectively) Arabidopsis thaliana rosettes. We also analyzed the effect of a RAP2.12 and RAP2.2 simultaneous silencing in aerobic and hypoxic-treated (O2 21% and 1%, respectively) Arabidopsis thaliana rosettes. We treated Arabidopsis Col-0 (wt) rosettes and transgenic HA::RAP2.12 and amiRAP2.2-12 , 5-week old, grown in 8/16 light/dark photoperiod with: -Control (22°C, dark, 21% O2, 1.5h). -Hypoxia (22°C, dark, 1% O2, 1.5h).
Project description:To investigate the mechanism underlying the effect of Brn2-loss we extracted mRNA from Braf-Pten-Brn2-wt, Braf-Pten-Brn2-het, and Braf-Pten-Brn2-hom mouse melanomas and performed microarray-based transcriptome analysis.

Project description:MADS-domain transcription factors play pivotal roles in numerous developmental processes in Arabidopsis thaliana. While their involvement in flowering transition and floral development has been extensively examined, their functions in root development remain relatively unexplored. Here, we explored the function and genetic interaction of three MADS-box genes (XAL2, SOC1 and AGL24) in primary root development. Our findings revealed that SOC1 and AGL24, both critical components in flowering transition, redundantly act as repressors of primary root growth as the loss of function of either SOC1 or AGL24 partially recovers the primary root growth, meristem cell number, cell production rate, and the length of fully elongated cells of the short-root mutant xal2-2. Furthermore, we observed that the simultaneous overexpression of AGL24 and SOC1 leads to short-root phenotypes, affecting meristem cell number, cell production rate, fully elongated cell size, but only the overexpression of SOC1 affects distal root stem cell differentiation. Additionally, these genes exhibit distinct modes of transcriptional regulation in roots compared to what has been previously reported for aerial tissues. Moreover, our findings revealed that the expression of certain genes involved in cell differentiation, as well as stress responses, which are either upregulated or downregulated in the xal2-2 mutant, reverted to WT levels in the absence of SOC1 or AGL24.
Project description:To investigate BRN1/2 function in neocortical development, we knockout BRN1/2 in the dorsal telencephalon (BRN1/2 cKO) We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from scRNA-seq of 13 different mice at E12.5 and E14.5

Abstract:
Genome-scale metabolic network models have been successfully
used to describe metabolism in a variety of microbial organisms
as well as specific mammalian cell types and organelles. This
systems-based framework enables the exploration of global
phenotypic effects of gene knockouts, gene insertion, and
up-regulation of gene expression. We have developed a
genome-scale metabolic network model (AraGEM) covering primary
metabolism for a compartmentalized plant cell based on the
Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genome. AraGEM is a
comprehensive literature-based, genome-scale metabolic
reconstruction that accounts for the functions of 1,419 unique
open reading frames, 1,748 metabolites, 5,253 gene-enzyme
reaction-association entries, and 1,567 unique reactions
compartmentalized into the cytoplasm, mitochondrion, plastid,
peroxisome, and vacuole. The curation process identified 75
essential reactions with respective enzyme associations not
assigned to any particular gene in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of
Genes and Genomes or AraCyc. With the addition of these
reactions, AraGEM describes a functional primary metabolism of
Arabidopsis. The reconstructed network was transformed into an
in silico metabolic flux model of plant metabolism and
validated through the simulation of plant metabolic functions
inferred from the literature. Using efficient resource
utilization as the optimality criterion, AraGEM predicted the
classical photorespiratory cycle as well as known key
differences between redox metabolism in photosynthetic and
nonphotosynthetic plant cells. AraGEM is a viable framework for
in silico functional analysis and can be used to derive new,
nontrivial hypotheses for exploring plant metabolism.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana 12-days old seedlings comparing Col-0 wild type with transgenic plants with altered expression of dual-targetting plastid/mitochondrial organellar RNA-polymerase RPOTmp. Transgenic plants used for experiment were: overexpressor plants obtained by transformation of Col-0 WT plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016] contained catalytic part of RPOTmp enzyme with transit peptides of RPOTm (mitochondrial) and RPOTp (plastid) by agrobacterial transformation; plants with complementation of RPOTmp functions in mitochondria or chloroplasts obtained from transformation of GABI_286E07 rpotmp knockout-mutant plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016]. Goal was to determine the effects of RPOTmp knockout/overexpression on global Arabidopsis thaliana gene expression.
