Transcription profiles of differentially marbled beef cattle
The objective of this study was to identify specific bovine genes expressed within skeletal muscle that are associated with the amount of intramuscular fat deposition. Twenty-eight steers and heifers were harvested at the University of Illinois Meat Science lab over the course of 4 months in early …

The Relationship Between Biofilm Production and Human Respiratory Cell Attachment and Invasion by Acinetobacter Baumannii
… attachment, invasion, and surface protein RNA transcription profiles of<em> A. baumannii</em> clinical isolates. Some isolates were resistant to commonly prescribed antibiotics, with six of the seventeen showing MDR. We found that 16 of the 17 strains produce biofilms in varying amounts; all …

Biological insights into the parasitic nematode Heligmosomoides bakeri from bulk and single-cell transcriptomics
… muscle cells. The resulting cluster expression profiles can guide investigations into tissue-specific aspects of the adult worms. Putative intestinal transcription profiles suggest compartmentalization of function along the anterior-posterior axis of the worms, with an emphasis on protein …

THE ROLE OF NRF2 IN PREVENTING OXIDATIVE/ELECTROPHILIC STRESS-INDUCED LIVER INJURY
… translocates to the nucleus, where it promotes transcription of a battery of cytoprotective genes. The antioxidative role of Nrf2 has been extensively studied for more than ten years, but the global Nrf2 target genes in liver still remain unknown. The present dissertation utilizes a Nrf2 "gene …

Bioindicators of Reductive Dechlorination in a Dehalococcoides ethenogenes-Containing Mixed Culture: Transcriptional Trends With Respect to Substrate Type, Substrate Concentration, and Culture Operation
… up-regulated within 1 to 12 h after PCE feeding. Transcription profiles over time suggested that genes belonging to similar functional groups were regulated in similar ways. Expression studies in cultures fed either electron donor or acceptor showed that neither PCE nor H2 alone was sufficient to …

Structural dynamics of community gene expression In a freshwater cyanobacterial bloom over a day-night cycle
… bp reads per sample. Hierarchical clustering of transcription profiles supported sorting of samples into two clusters corresponding to "day" and "night" collection times. Annotation of reads through the MGRAST pipeline (Metagenomics- Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) revealed that the …

Transcriptional profiles of differentiating periocular neural crest cells and the function of Nephronectin during chick corneal development
… this work was to elucidate the gene expression profiles during pNC migration and to examine the function of a highly regulated gene, Nephronectin (NPNT), during corneal formation. By performing RNA-seq analysis comparing pNC to its derived corneal structures, I analyzed differentially expressed …

Decoding the Notch signal: investigating dynamics of transcription directed by Notch responsive enhancers
… pathways must be accurately decoded to generate transcriptional outcomes. Notch is an evolutionarily conserved signalling pathway, which, despite its apparent simplicity, regulates very different processes across tissues and developmental contexts. After activation of the pathway via interaction …

Identifying a transcriptional signature for cell sensitivity to the cancer chemotherapy agent, BCNU
… agents includes wide spread changes in the transcriptional state of the cell that have been implicated in cell death or survival decisions. However, we do not fully understand how the multiple and sometimes opposing transcriptional signals are interpreted to make these critical decisions. A …
