Transposons in maize may be involved in the formation of circRNAs and further modulate phenotypic variation. To test our hypothesis, we performed circRNA-Seq(RNase R treated) on B73 seedlings(third leaves of V3 stage), and uncovered 1,572 high-confidence maize circRNAs, which show distinct genomic features compared to linear transcripts. Comprehensive analyses showed that LINE1-like elements (LLE) and their reverse complementary pairs (RCPLLEs) are significantly enriched in the flanking regions of circRNAs.
Circular RNAs mediated by transposons are associated with transcriptomic and phenotypic variation in maize.

View SamplesThe placenta has shown morphological and functional adaption in Meishan and Yorkshire pig breeds during late gestation. While the vast difference of uterine capacity and conceptus genotype between Western and Chinese pig breeds affects the pattern of placental development. Whether the placenta within Chinese pig breed also has similar adaptive changes is still unknown. So, we measured the weight and area of 80 Chinese indigenous Diannan small-ear pig placentas and further selected 6 placentas from extremely high and low litter size groups (HL and LL) for deep RNA-sequencing to detect the molecular basis relate to the observed placental phenotype difference.

View Samples1. To identify lncRNA regulating colorectal tumorigenesis, we performed RNA-seq analysis of cells with high and low tumorigenicity 2. To study the role of UPAT in colorectal cancer cells, we investigated the gene expression profiles of HCT116 cells in which UPAT expression had been suppressed by siRNA.

View SamplesAs an ancient winning strategy of microorganisms, glucose repression mechanism has become specialized to perfection in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The galactose (GAL) metabolism network is stringently regulated by glucose repression in yeast and has been a classic system for studying gene regulation. We show here that the population of S. cerevisiae living in fermented milks has autonomously reinstated an ancient version of the structural GAL genes through introgression. The introgressed GAL network has completely abolished the glucose repression and conversed from a strictly inducible to a constitutive system through coordinative polygenic changes in the regulatory components of the network, including transitions in the upstream repressing sequence site of GAL4 that impair Mig1p-mediated repression and loss of function of the inducer Gal3p and the repressor Gal80p. In addition, the introgressed GAL2 gene has been duplicated while the native HXT6 and HXT7 genes have been inactivated, resulting in galactose-over-glucose preference and elevated galactose utilization rate. Relying on the reverse evolution of the GAL network, the non-lactose fermenting yeast has become a dominant species co-existing with other lactose fermenting microorganisms in fermented milks. Our results also provide new clues for developing yeast strains devoid of barriers to co-utilization of different sugars.
