Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
High dietary fat intake is a major risk factor for the development of obesity, which is frequently associated with diabetes. To identify genes involved in diabetic nephropathy, GeneChip Expression Analysis was employed to survey the glomerular gene expression profile in diabetic KK/Ta mice fed with a high-fat diet (HFD).

- Affymetrix Xenopus laevis Genome Array (xenopuslaevis)
Description
Study of the tetrapod limb has contributed a great deal to our understanding of developmental pathways and how changes to these pathways affect morphology. Most data on tetrapod limb development is known from amniotes, with far less known about genetic mechanisms of limb development in amphibians. To better understand the mechanisms of limb development in anuran amphibians, we use cyclopamine to inhibit Hedgehog signaling at various stages of limb development in Xenopus. We use transcriptomic analysis following cyclopamine exposure to understand the downstream effects of Hedgehog inhibition on gene expression. We find many aspects of Hedgehog function appear to be conserved with respect to amniotes, including the responses of ptc genes, gremlin, bmp2, and the autoregulatory property of shh. We show that, as was proposed based on experiments in chick, Sonic hedgehog plays two distinct roles in limb development specification of digit number and specification of digit identity. In contrast to these points of conservation, we find that Hedgehog signaling is required for the maintenance of early limb bud outgrowth in Xenopus, a requirement not known for any other tetrapod.

Description
In animals, piRNAs, and their associated Piwi proteins, guard germ cell genomes against mobile genetic elements via an RNAi-like mechanism. In C. elegans, 21U-RNAs comprise the piRNA class and these collaborate with 22G RNAs, via unclear mechanisms, to discriminate self from non-self and selectively and heritably silence the latter. Recent work indicates that 21U-RNAs are post-transcriptional processing products of individual transcription units that produce ~26 nucleotide capped precursors. Yet, nothing is known of how the expression of precursors is controlled or of how primary transcripts give rise to mature small RNAs. We conducted a genome-wide RNAi screen to identify components of the 21U biogenesis machinery. Screening by direct, qPCR-based measurements of mature 21U-RNA levels, we identified 22 genes important for 21U-RNA production, termed TOFUs (Twenty-One-u Fouled Up). We also identified 7 genes that normally repress 21U production. By measuring mature 21U-RNA and precursor levels for the 7 strongest hits from the screen, we have assigned factors to discrete stages of 21U-RNA production. Our work has identified factors separately required for the transcription of 21U precursors, and the processing of these precursors into mature 21U-RNAs, thereby providing an essential resource for studying the biogenesis of this important small RNA class. Overall design: Small RNA and capped small RNA sequencing from total RNA of C. elegans subjected to different RNAi and different C. elegans mutants

Description
Rapid advances in genotyping and sequencing technology have dramatically accelerated the discovery of genes underlying human disease. Elucidating the function of such genes and understanding their role in pathogenesis, however, remains challenging. Here, we introduce a genomic strategy to functionally characterize such genes, and apply it to LRPPRC (leucine-rich PPR-motif containing), a poorly studied gene that is mutated in Leigh Syndrome, French Canadian type (LSFC).

Mitochondrial and nuclear genomic responses to loss of LRPPRC expression.

- Affymetrix Rice (Chinese Build) Gene 1.0 ST Array (rcngene10st)
Description
An auxin-binding protein (Abp57) was previously isolated from rice and known to activate plasma membrane proton ATPase. The Abp57 function was characterised by overexpression in the rice and Arabidopsis. The transgene expression was driven by constitutive promoter, CaMV35S. Results from physiological experiments showed that the transgenic lines were tolerant to drought and salinity stress.
