Investigation of transcriptional dynamics in the Caenorhabditis elegans intestine gene regulatory network
Altmetrics
Abstract
ELT-2 is the major transcription factor required for the activation of Caenorhabditis elegans intestinal development. ELT-2 expression initiates in embryos to promote development and persists after hatching through larval and adult stages. Though the sites of ELT-2 binding have been defined and the transcriptional changes that result from ELT-2 depletion described, the intestine-specific transcriptome profile over developmental time has not been characterized, in part because of the difficulty in isolating intestine from other tissues. To address this knowledge gap, we used Fluorescence Activated ...
