Copy number analysis of the low-copy repeats at the primate NPHP1 locus by array comparative genomic hybridization
Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): Bo Yuan, Pengfei Liu, Jeffrey Rogers, James R. Lupski Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) has been widely used to detect copy number variants (CNVs) in both research and clinical settings. A customizable aCGH platform may greatly facilitate copy number analyses in genomic regions with higher-order complexity, such as low-copy repeats (LCRs). Here we present the aCGH analyses focusing on the 45kb LCRs [1] at the NPHP1 region with diverse copy numbers in humans. Also, the interspecies aCGH analysis comparing human and nonhuman primat...

Microarray data analyses of yeast RNA Pol I subunit RPA12 deletion strain
Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): Kamlesh Kumar Yadav, Ram Rajasekharan The ribosomal RNA (rRNA) biosynthesis is the most energy consuming process in all living cells and the majority of total transcription activity is dedicated for synthesizing rRNA. The cells may adjust the synthesis of rRNA with the availability of resources. rRNA is mainly synthesized by RNA polymerase I that is composed of 14 subunits. Deletion of RPA12, 14, 39 and 49 are viable. RPA12 is a very small protein (13.6kDa), and the amount of protein in the cells is very high (12,000 molecules per cell), but the ...

Expression of microRNAs in HPV negative tonsil cancers and their regulation of PDCD4
Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): Samantha Khoury, Alireza Ahadi, Xiaoying Zhang, Nham Tran Global rates of tonsil cancer have been increasing since the turn of the millennia, however we still have a limited understanding of the genes and pathways which control this disease. This array dataset which is linked to our publication (Zhang et al., 2015) describes the profiling of human miRNAs in tonsil and normal adjacent tissues. With this dataset, we identified a list of microRNA (miRNA) which were highly over represented in tonsil cancers and showed that several miRNAs were abl...

Transcriptome of the freshwater amphipod Gammarus pulex hepatopancreas
Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): E. Gismondi, J.P. Thomé So far, ecotoxicological studies used biomarkers of exposure or of effects in order to investigate the impacts of contaminated areas on biota (Peakall, 1994 [6]). However, although these results are important in the ecotoxicological risk assessment, biomarkers are very specific and only provide information on the biological processes or physiological pathways targeted by the biomarkers experimenters choose to test (Monsinjon and Knigge, 2007 [5]). In recent years, proteomics have become a major tool in ecotoxicology, as t...

Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): Hui Zhang, Chung-Ming Chang, Kang-Ning Shen, Weiwei Xian, Chung-Der Hsiao The beltfish (Trichiurus lepturus) is considered as one of the most economically important marine fish in East Asia. It is a top predator with a robust swimming ability that is a good model to study muscle physiology in fish. In the present study, we used Illumina sequencing technology (NextSeq500) to sequence, assemble and annotate the muscle transcriptome of juvenile beltfish. A total of 57,509,280 clean reads (deposited in NCBI SRA database with accession number of...

Striatal transcriptome analysis of a congenic mouse line (chromosome 11: 50–60Mb) exhibiting reduced methamphetamine sensitivity
Publication date: June 2016 Source:Genomics Data, Volume 8 Author(s): Neema Yazdani, Ying Shen, W. Evan Johnson, Camron D. Bryant Addiction to psychostimulants such as Methamphetamine (MA) is a significant public health issue in the United States and currently, there are no FDA approved pharmacological interventions. Previously, using short term-selected mouse lines for high and low MA sensitivity that were derived from an F2 cross between C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) strains, we identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome (chr) 11 that influenced sensitivity to MA-induced locomotor activity (D2&...

Sequence analysis of pfcrt and pfmdr1 genes and its association with chloroquine resistance in Southeast Indian Plasmodium falciparum isolates
Conclusions The point mutation K76T of pfcrt is high in P. falciparum suggesting a sustained high CQ resistance even after five years of the introduction of ACTs for antimalarial therapy. The present study suggests a strong association of CQ resistance with pfcrt T76, but not with the pfmdr1 Y86 mutation. However, sequence analysis showed that Y184F mutation on pfmdr1 gene was found to be associated with high resistance. Also, a new pfcrt haplotype ‘CVIKT’ associated with CQ resistance was found to be present in Indian strains of P. falciparum. The data obtained from this study helps in continuous monitoring of drug re...
