- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Arrays were used to analyse changes in transcript abundance between Col-0 (wild-type) Arabidopsis seedlings and either single T-DNA insertional KO mutants of LETM1 (At3g59820)(T-DNA lines; SALK_067558C (letm1-1) and SALK_058471 (letm1-2)) or LETM2 (At1g65540) (T-DNA line; SALK_068877 (letm2-1)). Additionally, letm1 and letm2 knock out Arabidopsis lines were crossed to generate double mutants, however a double knock-out of these two genes results in an embryo lethal phenotype. Hemizygous plants were generated that were homozygous knock out for LETM1 and heterozygous knock out for LETM2, and visa versa, termed (letm1(-/-)LETM2(+/-) and (LETM1(+/-)letm2(-/-) respectively. Note that (letm1(-/-)LETM2(+/-) displays a mild developmental defective phenotype in the first 10-14 days of growth, while (LETM1(+/-)letm2(-/-) shows no phenotype. Microarray analysis was carried out on all three single homozygous knock out lines, and also on both combinations of the hemizygous mutation between the two genes, and compared with a wild-type Col-0 control to gain insight into global transcript abundance changes in these mutant lines. Arrays were performed in triplicate for each genotype, from RNA isolated from 3 independent pools of 5-10 Arabidopsis seedlings at 10 days old.

Description
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous, non-coding RNAs that mediate post-transcriptional gene silencing by inhibiting mRNA translation and promoting mRNA decay. DICER1, an RNAse III endonuclease encoded by Dicer1, is required for processing short 21-22 nucleotide miRNAs from longer double-stranded RNA precursors. Here, we investigate the loss of Dicer1 in mouse postnatal male germ cells to determine how disruptions in the miRNA biogenesis pathway may contribute to infertility. Reduced levels of Dicer1 transcripts and DICER1 were confirmed in germ cell knock-out (GCKO) testes by postnatal day 18 (P18). Compared to wild-type (WT) at 8 weeks, GCKO males had no change in body weight, yet showed significant reductions in testis mass and sperm number. Histology and fertility tests confirmed spermatogenic failure in GCKO males. Array analyses at P18 showed 96% of miRNA genes were down-regulated and 37% of protein-coding genes were differentially expressed in GCKO testes. Interestingly, we observed preferential overexpression of genes on the sex chromosomes in GCKO testes, with more than 80% of the genes overlapping those proposed to undergo meiotic sex chromosome inactivation (MSCI) in the germ cells. Compared to WT, GCKO mice showed higher percentages of cells at early meiotic stages (leptotene and zygotene) but lower percentages at later stages (pachytene, diplotene and metaphase I), providing evidence that deletion of Dicer1 leads to disruptions in meiotic progression. Furthermore, we observed fewer elongating spermatids with proper translational activation of transition protein 2 (Tnp2), protamine 1 and 2 (Prm1 and Prm2) in GCKO testes after step 12-14. Therefore, deleting Dicer1 in early postnatal germ cells causes misregulation of transcripts encoded by genes on the sex chromosomes, impairs meiotic progression and post-meiotic translational control and results in spermatogenic failure and infertility.

Description
We report the application of low cell number sequencing of identifiable Drosophila melanogaster neurons following behavior. We demonstate the feasibility of identifying the transcriptome of 5 Mushroom Body output Neurons and 2 classes of Kenyon Cells. We find these neurons display a diverse repertoire of receptors and signaling transcripts. This information alone seems to be enough to identify each class of neurons in the study. In additional we show that aversive long-term memory induces changes in gene transcript levels in a subset of these neurons. This study provides a framework for identifying neuronal classes in Drosophila melanogaster and gaining insight into the interplay between behavior and gene regulation. Overall design: 5 Mushroom Body output neurons and 2 classes of kenyon cells are used to look at general gene expression and changes following aversive long term memory. Paired control and trained animals were used and a minimum of 4 pairs up to 6 pairs. Animals were of the same background (w1118). Animals were aged and parental matched. Cells were harvested at the same chronological time for the animals across all experiments. All animals were exposed to 1 minute of each odor and 1 minute of a series of 12 5second 60V shocks. This was considered one block and then the animals had spaced training of each block so there was a 10 minute break between 8 blocks of training. Trained animals had an odor paired with a shock, control animals received the shock then the odor stimulus. All cells were harvested usign a patch pipet from living animals on an electrophysiology rig within a half hour of the end of training. Cells were amplified using the Clontech SMARTer Ultra Low Input RNA version 2 High Volume kit. 2 Brain samples were also collected and 3-4 whole fly samples for each genotype were collected to account for background differences across flies.

Description
Bcl11a is a transcription factor known to regulate lymphoid and erythroid development. Recent bioinformatic analysis of global gene expression patterns has suggested a role for Bcl11a in the development of dendritic cell (DC) lineages. We tested this hypothesis by analyzing the development of DC and other lineages in Bcl11a(-/-) mice. We show that Bcl11a is required for expression of IL-7 receptor (IL-7R) and Flt3 in early hematopoietic progenitor cells. The loss of IL-7R(+) common lymphoid progenitors accounts for previously described lymphoid defects in Bcl11a(-/-) mice. In addition, we found severely decreased numbers of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) in Bcl11a(-/-) fetal livers and in the bone marrow of Bcl11a(-/-) fetal liver chimeras. Moreover, Bcl11a(-/-) cells show severely impaired in vitro development of Flt3L-derived pDCs and classical DCs (cDCs). In contrast, we found normal in vitro development of DCs from Bcl11a(-/-) fetal liver cells treated with GM-CSF. These results suggest that the persistent cDC development observed in Bcl11a(-/-) fetal liver chimeras reflects derivation from a Bcl11a- and Flt3-independent pathway in vivo.
Publication Title
Bcl11a controls Flt3 expression in early hematopoietic progenitors and is required for pDC development in vivo.
