Project description:To identify possible mitochondrial DNA binding targets of SHOT1/MTERF18 (AT3G60400), C-terminal GFP fusion constructs under either a constitutive 35S promoter (35S::SHOT1-GFP) or the SHOT1 native promoter (SHOT1p::SHOT1-GFP) were made. The transgenes were introduced into the shot1-2 mutant background (Kim et al., 2012, Plant Cell) and verified to be functional based on recovery of shot1 from growth defects. As a control, a transgenic line harboring mitochondria-targeted GFP (Mito-GFP) under the 35S promoter was used. All enriched peaks in SHOT1-GFP samples are located upstream of different tRNA genes: trnS, trnM, trnG and trnF
Project description:The Arabidopsis thaliana Myb transcription factor, FE, acts as a key regulator of phase transition. In order to identify potential target genes of FE protein, we performed microarray experiments. Using fe-1 and transgenic plants overexpressing GR-tagged FE (35S::FE-GR), we compared transcriptional profiling of WT (L.er) vs fe-1 and Dex-treated 35S::FE-GR vs Mock-treated 35S::FE-GR. Transcriptional profiling of A. thaliana comparing WT (L.er) with the fe-1 mutant
