View SamplesSaccharomyces cerevisiae has become a popular host for production of non-native compounds. The metabolic pathways involved generally require a net input of energy. To maximize the ATP yield on sugar in S. cerevisiae, industrial cultivation is typically performed in aerobic, sugar-limited fed-batch reactors which, due to constraints in oxygen transfer and cooling capacities, have to be operated at low specific growth rates. Because intracellular levels of key metabolites and cellular energy status are growth-rate dependent, slow growth can significantly affect biomass-specific productivity. Using an engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain expressing a heterologous pathway for resveratrol production as a model energy-requiring product, the impact of specific growth rate on yeast physiology and productivity was investigated in aerobic, glucose-limited chemostat cultures.

View SamplesWe report liver transcript profiling by RNA sequencing of Atp7b-/- and wild type mice at six weeks of age. Transcriptional network analysis of RNA-seq data reveals a highly interconnected network of transcriptional activators with over-representation of zinc-dependent and zinc-responsive transcription factors. Overall design: Wild type and Atp7b-/- Mice were maintained on strain C57BL x 129S6/SvEv. Housing was in shoebox cages and fed Mazuri Rodent diet (PMI Nutrition, Inc., Richmond, Indiana), containing 16 ppm Cu, 100 ppm Zn, and 235 ppm Fe and water ad libitum, with a 12-hour light/dark cycle. Six-week-old mice of both sexes were used for transcriptomic studies. Animals were sacrificed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation and liver tissue was harvested for RNA isolation. RNA sequencing was performed at the National Center for Genome Resources (NCGR) using the GAIIx platform. Average read quality was 38. An initial dataset was generated using two wild type and two Atp7b-/- samples with singleton 1x54 runs with 15,823,058; 8,149,631; 22,931,967 and 9,538,147 reads. A second paired end (2x54) dataset was generated to augment the initial singleton dataset with one wild type and one Atp7b-/- run resulting in 36,360,686 and 38,366,743 reads, respectively.

View SamplesIn this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from dissected mouse 16.5 embryonic brains using 3 wild type and 3 Tdp21-3 individuals. These data are used to obtain 165 genes that are differentially expressed as a consequence of Tdp2 absence.
TDP2 protects transcription from abortive topoisomerase activity and is required for normal neural function.

View SamplesUnlike human hearts, zebrafish hearts efficiently regenerate after injury. Regeneration is driven by the strong proliferation response of its cardiomyocytes to injury. In this study, we show that active telomerase is required for cardiomyocyte proliferation and full organ recovery, supporting the potential of telomerase therapy as a means of stimulating cell proliferation upon myocardial infarction. Overall design: Heart transcriptomes of WT and telomerase defective adult zebrafish animals were profiled by RNASeq, in control conditions and 3 days after heart cryoinjury.

View SamplesDiurnal temperature cycling is an intrinsic characteristic of many exposed microbial ecosystems. However, its influence on yeast physiology and transcriptome has not been studied in detail. In this study, 24-h sinoidal temperature cycles, oscillating between 12 and 30C, were imposed on anaerobic, glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. After three diurnal temperature cycles (DTC), concentrations of glucose, and extracellular metabolites, as well as CO2-production rates showed regular, reproducible circadian rhytms. DTC also led to waves of transcriptional activation and repression, which involved one sixth of the yeast genome. A substantial fraction of these DTC-responsive genes appeared to primarily respond to changes in glucose concentration. Elimination of known glucose-responsive genes revealed overrepresentation of previously identified temperature-responsive genes as well as genes involved in cell cycle and de novo purine biosynthesis. Analyses of budding index and flow cytomery demonstrated that DTC led to a partial synchronization of the cell cycle of the yeast populations in the chemostat cultures, which was lost upon release from DTC. Comparison of DTC results with data from steady-state cultures showed that DTC was sufficiently slow to allow S. cerevisiae chemostat cultures to almost completely acclimatize their transcriptome and physiology at the DTC temperature maximum, and to approach acclimation at the DTC temperature minimum.
