Project description:The study aims essentially at the characterisation of suberin degradation mechanisms by Aspergillus nidulans, at a fundamental level. Suberin is an important protective barrier in plant, thus the study of its biodegradation significantly impacts on phytopatology. In addition, fungal suberin degrading enzymes might provide important insights to develop new waste management, bioremediation and biodeterioration prevention strategies.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Leucocroton havanensis (Euphorbiaceae) living on serpentine Cuabal, from Cuba, was compared to the closely related non-accumulator Lasiocroton microphyllus living on Gallery forest on limestone soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Geissois pruinosa (Rubiaceae) endemic from New Caledonia was compared to the closely related non-accumulator Geissois racemosa, living respectively in serpentine maquis or rainforest on limestone, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate ecotypic adaptation in Holcus lanatus in plants selected from two widely contrasting habitats, acid bog (pH 3.5) or limestone quarry spoil (pH 7.5), using a transcriptome based analysis approach including sequence analysis of root associated Glomeromycota. Differential gene expression in root and shoot of naturally occurring H. lanatus ecotypes, selected from either habitat and grown in a full factorial reciprocal soil transplant experiment were investigated and ecotype specific SNPs identified.
Project description:Mouse Bcell, upon ectopic expression of the transcription factor Cebpa for 18h, can be reprogrammed to iPS with extremely high efficiency. To understand the molecular control of this phenomena we performed multiple high throughtput functionnal genomic analysis. Genome binding/occupancy of transcription factors and histones by ChIPseq in Bcell, Bcell+Cebpa18h, Bcell+Cebpa18h+OKSM1d, Bcell+Cebpa18h+OKSM2d, ES cells
