Project description:We have sequenced messenger RNA isolated from seedling tissue for 19 accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana (with biological replication). The 19 accessions for which RNA-Seq reads were collected have served as the founders for the MAGIC lines, a high-resolution recombinant inbred line mapping resource. RNA sequencing data was used to examine differential gene expression among the accessions.
Project description:Methyl CpG Binding (MBD) proteins are a class of protein that binds with methylated DNA. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana there are 13 MBD proteins are there. To understand the gene regulation we performed microarray analysis of mutants of three genes (atmbd4, atmbd6 and atmbd11). Ten day old seedlings of these three mutant were compared with the wild type plants grown in same condition.
