Project description:Eusocial insects have evolved the capacity to generate adults with distinct morphological, reproductive and behavioural phenotypes from the same genome. Recent studies suggest that RNA editing might enhance the diversity of gene products at the post-transcriptional level, particularly to induce functional changes in the nervous system. Using head samples from the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex echinatior, we compare RNA editomes across eusocial castes, identifying ca. 11,000 RNA editing sites in gynes, large workers and small workers. Those editing sites map to 800 genes functionally enriched for neurotransmission, circadian rhythm, temperature response, RNA splicing and carboxylic acid biosynthesis. Most A. echinatior editing sites are species specific, but 8M-bM-^@M-^S23% are conserved across ant subfamilies and likely to have been important for the evolution of eusociality in ants. The level of editing varies for the same site between castes, suggesting that RNA editing might be a general mechanism that shapes caste behaviour in ants. Analysis of genome-wide RNA editing in three different female castes of the the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex echinatior.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has demonstrated significant promise for the treatment of advanced malignancies. Anti-CTLA4 and ant-PD1 therapy can activate the immune system and result in durable control in diseases such as melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signals via Gli transcription factors to direct digit number and identity in the vertebrate limb. We have characterized the Gli-dependent cis-regulatory network through a combination of whole genome ChIP-on-chip and transcriptional profiling of the developing mouse limb. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from dissected mouse forelimbs using a variety of gain- and loss-of-function hedgehog pathway mutants, as well as limbs dissected into responsive (posterior 2/3ds) and non-responsive (anterior 1/3d) Hh tissues. These data are used to obtain 753 genes that are differentially expressed in response to Shh signaling. Keywords: Comparison of genetic samples 28 Total samples were analyzed. We generated the following pairwise comparisons using PowerExpress: Shh<WT; SmoM2>WT; Gli3<WT; Gli3>WT; Ant<Post; Ant>Post. Genes with an FDRM-bM-^IM-$10% and a fold-change M-bM-^IM-%2 were selected. We did not generate pairwise comparisons for a certain combinations with SmoGli3 and Gli3 mutants because data from these arrays contained significant variability. To identify additional genes that were Shh-responsive, we performed the following multiple sample comparisons using an FDRM-bM-^IM-$10% and a posterior probability cutoff of M-bM-^IM-$25%: 1.) Ant<Post and Shh<WT<SmoM2, 2.) Ant<Post and Shh<WT<SmoM2 and Gli3>SmoGli3, 3.) Ant<Post and Shh<WT<SmoM2 and WT>SmoGli3

Project description:Genes not only control traits of their carrier organism (known as Direct Genetic Effects or DGEs) but also shape their carrier's physical environment and the phenotypes of their carrier's social partners (known as Indirect Genetic Effects or IGEs). Theoretical research has shown that the effects that genes exert on social partners can have profound consequences, potentially altering heritability and the direction of trait evolution. Complementary empirical research has shown that in various contexts (particularly in animal agriculture) IGEs can explain a large proportion of variation in specific traits. However, little is known about the general prevalence of IGEs. We conducted a reciprocal cross-fostering experiment with two genetic lineages of the clonal raider ant Ooceraea biroi to quantify the relative contribution of DGEs and IGEs to variation in brain gene expression (which underlies behavioral variation). We find that thousands of genes are differentially expressed by DGEs but not a single gene is differentially expressed by IGEs. This is surprising given the highly social context of ant colonies and given that individual behavior varies according to the genotypic composition of the social environment in O. biroi. Overall, these findings indicate that we have a lot to learn about how the magnitude of IGEs varies across species and contexts.
