Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array (hgu133a2)
Description
PGC1a is a transcriptional coactivator that regulates energy metabolism. PGC1a is highly expressed in a subset of melanoma tumors and cell lines. We generated gene-expression profile of control and PGC1alpha depleted A375P melanoma cells, a melanoma cell line that expresses very high levels of PGC1a to investigate the role of this gene in melanoma.

Description
The spliceosome is a dynamic RNA-protein complex that executes pre-mRNA splicing and is composed of five core small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (U1, U2, U4/5/6 snRNP) and >150 additional proteins specific for each snRNP. We report a circadian role for Pre-mRNA Processing factor 4 (PRP4), a conserved component of the spliceosomal U4/U6.U5 triple small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (tri-snRNP) complex. We broadly hypothesized that downregulation of prp4 led to the aberrant splicing of one or many of the core clock transcripts. To identify these splicing events in an unbiased way, we performed RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis. We reasoned that we could have a more targeted approach if we could zoom in on the overlapping splicing changes that would be driven by the knockdown of at least two different tri-snRNP components. Because the pan-neuronal knockdown of all tri-snRNP components tested in our study led to lethality, we decided to utilize an alternative broad driver. For that purpose, we selected a strong eye-specific Glass Multiple Promoter driver (GMR-Gal4). Because most of the signal from head lysates comes directly from the eye tissue and because the core splicing factors are ubiquitously expressed, GMR-specific downregulation of prp4 and prp8 promised to be a viable alternative to the pan-neuronal knockdown. We examined changes in both the total transcript levels and splicing events upon prp4 knockdown in the eye. The overall gene expression seemed to be dramatically influenced by prp4 downregulation (433 DOWN, 310 UP at FDR < 0.05). Despite the fact that PRP4 is a component of the core spliceosome that is required for constitutive exon splicing, we did not detect dramatic effects on global splicing. Only 45 genes exhibited differential alternate splicing upon prp4 downregulation at FDR < 0.05). Overall design: 3 samples with 5 replicates each were analyzed using Illumina Next-Generation Sequencing (NextSeq 500).

- Affymetrix Soybean Genome Array (soybean)
Description
This study was designed to identify candidate genes associated with iron efficiency in soybeans. Two genotypes, Clark (PI548553) and IsoClark (PI547430), were grown in both iron sufficient (100uM Fe(NO3)3) and iron deficient (50uM Fe(NO3)3) hydroponics conditions. The second trifoliate was harvested for RNA extraction for the microarray experiment. Candidate genes were identified by comparing gene expression profiles within genotypes between the two iron growth conditions.

Integrating microarray analysis and the soybean genome to understand the soybeans iron deficiency response.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
We have previously demonstrated that deletion of the Cebpa gene in the developing fetal mouse lung caused death soon after birth from the failure of lung maturation. Many of the transcriptional pathways regulating morphogenesis of the fetal lung are induced postnatally and mediate repair of the injured lung. We hypothesized that C/EBPa plays a role in protection of the alveolar epithelium following hyperoxia injury of the mature lung. Transgenic Cebpa/ mice in which Cebpa was conditionally deleted from Clara cells (from early gestation) and type II cells (from near-term) were developed. Cebpa/ mice grow normally without any pulmonary abnormalities. Cebpa/ mice were highly susceptible to hyperoxia. Cebpa/ mice died within 4d after hyperoxia associated with severe lung inflammation and altered surfactant components at a time when all control mice survived. Microarrays were analyzed on isolated type II cells at an early stage (24h) of hyperoxia exposure to detect the primary genes influenced by deletion of Cebpa. The associated network analysis revealed the reduced expression of key genes related to surfactant lipid and protein homeostasis, such as Srebf, Scap, Lpcat1, Abca3, Sftpb, and Napsa. Genes for the cell signaling, immune response, and protective antioxidants, including GSH and Vnn-1,3, were decreased in the Cebpa/ mice lung. C/EBPa did not play a critical role in postnatal pulmonary function under normal conditions. In contrast, in the absence of C/EBPa, exposure to hyperoxia caused respiratory failure, supporting the concept that C/EBPa plays an important role in enhancing epithelial cell survival, surfactant lipid homeostasis, and maturation of SP-B from pro-SP-B.

Description
Arabidopsis MPK4 is involved in the control of antagonism between salicylic acid (SA) and ethylene (ET)/jasmonic acid (JA) pathways in the plant innate immune system as a repressor of the SA pathway, but an activator of the ET/JA pathway. Here we and use comparative microarray analysis of ctr1, ctr1/mpk4, mpk4 and wild type to show that MPK4 is required for only a narrow subset of ET regulated genes.
