Deciphering transcriptional regulation mechanisms underlining fruit development and ripening in Vitis vinifera
2019
BACKGROUND: Grapes (Vitis vinifera ) are an important woody crop cultivated in a broad range of environmental conditions. Grapefruit development is a physiological process whose molecular regulatory networks are still not sufficiently investigated. OBJECTIVE: The primary aim of the work was to identify which key genes, molecular mechanisms and networks were involved in fruit ripening and development through a comparison of available transcriptomic data at different stages during grape development and ripening. Secondly, we aimed at identifying among these fruit-related genes, which genes play also a functional role in other developmental and physiological processes in reproductive tissues (…
Análisis transcriptómico del daño por frío en fruto de melocotón
2016
En la industria hortofrutícola las bajas temperaturas se utilizan para retrasar la maduración y el decaimiento de los frutos. A pesar de tener un uso extendido, los frutos de melocotón sometidos a almacenamiento prolongado en frío (CS) a menudo desarrollan una forma de daño por frío (CI) genéticamente controlada llamada harinosidad (mealiness/woolliness [WLT]): un desorden textural de la pulpa del fruto caracterizado por la perdida de suculencia Aunque durante el frío se han observado algunas alteraciones microscópicas, los síntomas visibles o macroscópicos de daño se desarrollan, no obstante, cuando los frutos se transfieren a temperatura ambiente (temperaturas de simulación de vida útil, …
Integrative Gene Expression and Metabolic Analysis Tool IgemRNA
2022
ABSTRACTGenome scale metabolic modelling is widely used technique to research metabolism impacts on organism’s properties. Additional omics data integration enables a more precise genotype-phenotype analysis for biotechnology, medicine and life sciences. Transcriptome data amounts rapidly increase each year. Many transcriptome analysis tools with integrated genome scale metabolic modelling are proposed. But these tools have own restrictions, compatibility issues and the necessity of previous experience and advanced user skills. We have analysed and classified published tools, summarized possible transcriptome pre-processing, and analysis methods and implemented them in the new transcriptome…
Transcriptome and metabolome analysis of citrus fruit to elucidate puffing disorder.
2014
a b s t r a c t A systems-level analysis reveals details of molecular mechanisms underlying puffing disorder in Citrus fruit. Flavedo, albedo and juice sac tissues of normal fruits and fruits displaying symptoms of puffing disorder were studied using metabolomics at three developmental stages. Microarrays were used to compare normal and puffed fruits for each of the three tissues. A protein-protein interaction network inferred from previous work on Arabidopsis identified hub proteins whose transcripts show significant changes in expression. Glycolysis, the backbone of primary metabolism, appeared to be severely affected by the disorder, based on both transcriptomic and metabolomic results. …
Architecture of cell differentiation, stress-mediated protein expression and transport in iPSC-derived Motor Neurons bearing a pG376D TDP-43 mutation
2020
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE. ALS is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by loss of motoneurons (MNs). Growingevidence suggests that the disease has a strong genetic basis. Up to now, more than 50 ALS-related genes have beenfound. Among these, TARDBP plays a critical role in ALS. Pathogenic mutations in TARDBP gene are found in 1–3% offamilial ALS cases. A few years ago, a novel G376D TARDBP mutation associated to ALS was reported (Conforti et al, 2011). Recently, a verylarge genealogic tree from this G376D family was made (2HE Association, personal communication) leading to a largecollection of DNA, plasma and fibroblasts (FBs) from several family members, both affected and not clinically…
