RNA sequencing analysis of the developing chicken retina
نویسندگان
چکیده
RNA sequencing transcriptome analysis using massively parallel next generation sequencing technology provides the capability to understand global changes in gene expression throughout a range of tissue samples. Development of the vertebrate retina requires complex temporal orchestration of transcriptional activation and repression. The chicken embryo (Gallus gallus) is a classic model system for studying developmental biology and retinogenesis. Existing retinal transcriptome projects have been critical to the vision research community for studying aspects of murine and human retinogenesis, however, there are currently no publicly available data sets describing the developing chicken retinal transcriptome. Here we used Illumina RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis to characterize the mRNA transcriptome of the developing chicken retina in an effort to identify genes critical for retinal development in this important model organism. These data will be valuable to the vision research community for characterizing global changes in gene expression between ocular tissues and critical developmental time points during retinogenesis in the chicken retina.

Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) analysis of DNA methylation uses massively parallel next generation sequencing technology to characterize global epigenetic patterns and fluctuations throughout a range of tissue samples. Development of the vertebrate retina is thought to involve extensive epigenetic reprogramming during embryogenesis. The chicken embryo (Gallus gallus) is a classic mode...
متن کاملIsolation and expression of homeobox genes from the embryonic chicken eye.
PURPOSE To identify homeobox-containing genes that may play a role in the differentiation of ocular tissues. METHODS Total RNA was isolated from microdissected chicken embryo eye tissues at 3.5 days of development (embryonic day 3.5; E3.5). An "anchor-oligo-dT primer" was used for the synthesis of cDNA. Degenerate oligonucleotides designed from highly-conserved sequences in the third helix of...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and sequence analysis of a chicken cDNA encoding tyrosinase-related protein-2/DOPAchrome tautomerase.
We have cloned and sequenced a chicken cDNA encoding an l-DOPAchrome tautomerase (DCT) from an embryonic melanocyte cDNA library. The chicken DCT gene encodes a deduced protein of 516 amino acids (aas) and shares 69.2% and 69.9% aa sequence identity with the deduced mouse and human DCT proteins, respectively. Northern blot hybridisation analysis reveals a DCT transcript of 3.5kb in RNA from the...

In order to perform breeding programs and improve production of native chickens, preserving genetic diversity in different areas of Iran is important due to the reduced available population. Genome sequencing is considered the most functional approach to determine the phylogeny relation between close populations. The aim of the present study was the evaluation of the phylogeny and genetic nucle...
متن کاملI-13: Transcriptome Dynamics of Human and Mouse Preimplantation Embryos Revealed by Single Cell RNA-Sequencing
Background: Mammalian preimplantation development is a complex process involving dramatic changes in the transcriptional architecture. However, it is still unclear about the crucial transcriptional network and key hub genes that regulate the proceeding of preimplantation embryos. Materials and Methods: Through single-cell RNAsequencing (RNA-seq) of both human and mouse preimplantation embryos, ...
