We present a basic characterization of the function of Y-box binding proteins in C. elegans. Besides playing an important role for fertility in the germline (all four CEY proteins), we found that the presence of CEY-1 and CEY-4 is essential for the assembly of larger polysomes in the soma. We therefore performed ribosome-profiling in combination with total RNA sequencing in wild type and cey-1,-4 double mutant animals to globally compare mRNA levels and their translation status. Overall design: Total RNA sequencing was peformed on RNA extacted from wild type and cey-1,-4 mutant animals in duplicates. Four samples in total.
Functional characterization of C. elegans Y-box-binding proteins reveals tissue-specific functions and a critical role in the formation of polysomes.

View SamplesChronic inflammation during placental malaria (PM) caused by Plasmodium falciparum is most frequent in first-time mothers and is associated with poor maternal and fetal outcomes. In the first genome wide analysis of the local human response to sequestered malaria parasites, we identified genes associated with chronic PM, then localized the corresponding proteins and immune cell subsets in placental cryosections.

View SamplesIn this study, we used the Affymetrix wheat GeneChip to examine the transcript accumulation in a near-isogenic line pair carrying resistant and susceptible alleles at the wheat Fhb1 locus. The objectives of this study were: (1) to identify the overall response in wheat to F. graminearum infection; (2) to identify key genes involved in FHB resistance/susceptibility pathways in wheat; (3) to compare the transcript profiles of wheat and barley during F. graminearum infection; and (4) to examine the relationship between transcript accumulation, disease severity, fungal biomass and trichothecene accumulation in wheat. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Seungho Cho.

View SamplesFusarium Head Blight susceptible barley variety, Morex, was infected with deoxynivalenol production deficient mutant strain (GZT40) and wild type stains (Z3639) of Fusarium graminearum. The RNA was sampled at 48 and 96 hours after inoculation. and was used hybridize to Barley_1 GeneChip. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Jayanand Boddu.

View SamplesWe utilized the Barley1 Affymetrix GeneChip for comparative transcript analysis of Betzes barley, Chinese Spring wheat, and Chinese SpringBetzes ditelosomic chromosome addition lines to physically map barley genes to their respective chromosome arm locations. We mapped barley genes to chromosome arms (1HS, 2HS, 2HL, 3HS, 3HL, 4HS, 4HL, 5HS, 5HL, 7HS, and 7HL) based on their transcript levels in the ditelosomic addition lines. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Hatice Bilgic.

View SamplesTransposons 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.
