- 环境变化会触发树木中的分子反应,调节全年关键的发育过程.
研究的目的:
- 创建Populus树的年度生长周期的综合转录路线图.
- 识别基因中心和特定于树木发育季节性变化的分子过程.
- 在户外和受控环境中种植的树木之间比较基因表达模式.
主要方法:
- 在207个来自欧洲 (Populus tremula) 和杂交 (Populus tremula x tremuloides杂交T89) 的样本上进行了RNA测序.
- 树木在不同的年度阶段在户外生长,并在受控的条件下模拟季节变化.
- 共同表达网络分析被用来识别具有季节性表达特征的模块.
主要成果:
- 建立了Populus年度生长周期的完整的转录路线图.
- 在46个已识别的共同表达模块中,36个显示季节性表达模式,其中许多模仿在受控条件下.

Transcription
Transcription is the process of synthesizing RNA from a DNA sequence by RNA polymerase. It is the first step in producing a protein from a gene sequence. Additionally, many other proteins and regulatory sequences are involved in the proper synthesis of messenger RNA (mRNA). Regulation of transcription is responsible for the differentiation of all the different types of cells and often for the proper cellular response to environmental signals.

Transcription Elongation Factors
The transcription elongation is regulated via pausing of RNA polymerase on several occasions during transcription. In bacteria, these halts are necessary because the transcription of DNA into mRNA is coupled to the translation of that mRNA...
