View SamplesThe edr1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana displays enhanced resistance to the powdery mildew Golovinomyces cichoracearum, resulting in cell death and an absence of visible disease symptoms. To better characterize and understand the defense response of edr1, a time course of early signaling responses was performed after inoculation with powdery mildew and compared to the responses of wild-type Col-0. These time points represent early stages in the infection process, before any signs of susceptibility or resistance are visible.

View SamplesTo identify factors and pathways regulated by IMP proteins and obtain leads to the mechanism behind the phenotypic changes, we compared the gene expression profiles of IMP siRNA treated cells with mock treated cells. Triplicate gene expression profiles were generated from both the IMP(1,3)A and IMP(1,3)B siRNA sets and were compared to the mock transfected cells. cRNA was hybridized to Affymetrix human U133A arrays.

View SamplesGlobal gene expression was compared between Arabidopsis lines with altered expression of ANAC102 (over-expressed and knocked-out) and wild-type. ANAC102 is a putative NAC domain transcription factor. Gene expression was compared between an ANAC102 over-expressing line and parental ecotype C24 under ambient atmosphere to determine which genes ANAC102 is capable of regulating. Gene expression was also compared between three week old plants of an ANAC102 knock-out line and parental ecotype Col-0 under 0.1% Oxygen and ambient atmosphere conditions to determine which genes may require ANAC102 for appropriate expression under these conditions. Gene expression was also compared between imbibed seeds of an ANAC102 knock-out line and parental ecotype Col-0 following a 0.1% Oxygen treatment.

View SamplesInjuries to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) often result in post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). PTOA accounts for ~12% of all osteoarthritis (OA) cases, yet the mechanisms contributing to OA after joint injury are not well understood. To better understand the molecular mechanisms behind PTOA development following ACL injury, we profiled ACL injury-induced gene expression changes in knee joints of three mouse strains with varying susceptibility to PTOA: STR/ort (highly susceptible), C57BL/6 (moderately susceptible) and super-healer MRL/MpJ (not susceptible) and identified genes differentially expressed between these strains at 0-day [before injury], 1-day, 1-week, and 2-weeks post-injury. This study highlights many new potential therapeutic targets and OA biomarkers. Overall design: Comparative transcriptomics to understand the molecular changes associated with early stages of PTOA development in STR/ort, C57BL/6 and MRL/MpJ mice and to identify genes that contribute to increased OA susceptibility in STR/ort and resistance to PTOA in MRL/MpJ.

View SamplesTechnical advances have enabled the collection of genome and transcriptome data sets with single-cell resolution. However, single-cell characterization of the epigenome has remained challenging. Furthermore, because cells must be physically separated prior to biochemical processing, conventional single-cell preparatory methods scale linearly. We applied combinatorial cellular indexing to measure chromatin accessibility in thousands of single cells per assay, circumventing the need for compartmentalization of individual cells. We report chromatin accessibility profiles from over 15,000 single cells and use these data to cluster cells on the basis of chromatin accessibility landscapes. We identify modules of coordinately regulated chromatin accessibility at the level of single cells both between and within cell types, with a scalable method that may accelerate progress toward a human cell atlas. Overall design: 3 replicates from GM12878 and HL-60 cell lines collected for differential gene expression analysis.

View SamplesWe transduced clonally MLL-AF9 leukemia cells expressing cas9 with sgRNA targeting the jumonji and zinc finger domains of JMJD1C. GFP (MLL-AF9) and TdTomato (sgRNA) double positive cells were sorted on Day 6 after transduction. Total RNA was isolated followed by mRNA selection. cDNA libraries were generated and NextGen Sequencing was performed. Overall design: We performed RNA-seq in mouse MLL-AF9 cas9 cells harboring sgRNA against jumonji and zinc finger domains of JMJD1C or renilla.
