Description
The optic vesicle comprises a pool of bi-potential progenitor cells from which the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and neural retina fates segregate during ocular morphogenesis. Several transcription factors and signaling pathways have been shown to be important for RPE maintenance and differentiation, but an understanding of the initial fate specification and determination of this ocular cell type is lacking. We show that Yap/Taz-Tead activity is necessary and sufficient for optic vesicle progenitors to adopt RPE identity in zebrafish. A Teadresponsive transgene is expressed within the domain of the optic cup from which RPE arises, and Yap immunoreactivity localizes to the nuclei of prospective RPE cells. yap (yap1) mutants lack a subset of RPE cells and/or exhibit coloboma. Loss of RPE in yap mutants is exacerbated in combination with taz (wwtr1) mutant alleles such that, when Yap and Taz are both absent, optic vesicle progenitor cells completely lose their ability to form RPE. The mechanism of Yap dependent RPE cell type determination is reliant on both nuclear localization of Yap and interaction with a Tead co-factor. In contrast to loss of Yap and Taz, overexpression of either protein within optic vesicle progenitors leads to ectopic pigmentation in a dosagedependent manner. Overall, this study identifies Yap and Taz as key early regulators of RPE genesis and provides a mechanistic framework for understanding the congenital ocular defects of Sveinsson’s chorioretinal atrophy and congenital retinal coloboma. Overall design: 60 pooled eyes from 36 hpf wild type or vsx2:Gal4/dsRed:14xUAS:YapS87A embryos were pooled for one sample. Three wild type and three vsx2:Gal4/dsRed:14xUAS:YapS87A pools were analyzed for RNA.

Affymetrix Wheat Genome Array (wheat)
Description
The aim of the experiment is provide a reference dataset for placing wheat grain transcriptome experiments in a developmental context. RNA was isolated from whole grain tissue of replicate wheat cv. Hereward plants at 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 17, 21, 28, 35 and 42 days after anthesis (daa). Also supplied are array data for grain sampled at 14, 21 and 28 daa under control, hot, dry and hot&dry conditions to illustrate the importance of developmental context in interpretation.

Description
In mammals, chromosomes are partitioned into megabase-sized topologically associating domains (TADs). TADs can be in either A (active) or B (inactive) subnuclear compartments, which correspond to early (E) and late (L) replicating timing (RT) domains, respectively. Here, we show that RT changes are tightly correlated with A/B compartment changes during mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) differentiation. A/B compartments changed mostly by a “boundary shift,” frequently causing compartment switching of single TADs, which coincided with or preceded RT changes. Upon differentiation, mESCs acquired an A/B compartment organization that closely resembled EpiSCs (epiblast-derived stem cells), suggesting that accumulation of compartment boundary repositioning eventually led to naïve-to-primed pluripotency transition in A/B compartment organization. We propose that large-scale reorganization of A/B compartments, which is reflected in RT domain reorganization, represents major cell fate changes. Collectively, our data provides valuable insights into the regulatory principles of 3-dimensional (3D) genome organization during early embryonic stages. Overall design: RNA-Seq: 9 cell types, with a total of 34 individual replicates.

Description
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative disease of the joint. Data from our lab indicates that Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is activated in human OA and murine models of OA (Lin et al., 2009, Nature Medicine). To identify Hh target genes, microarray analyses were performed to detect changes in gene expression when the Hh pathway was inhibited in human OA cartilage samples.
