In ethylmethane sulfonate (EMS)-mutagenized lines of Fragaria vesca accession Yellow Wonder (YW), two fruit shapes are observed: wild-type long fruit and mutated shortened fruit (sf). In this study, we first characterized sf based on morphology, histology, cytology and physiology. The sf was identified as a gibberellin (GA)-deficient mutant, and four complementary DNA (cDNA) libraries separately constructed from flower buds and small green fruits of YW and sfwere sequenced to comparatively analyze transcriptome differences. A total of 29 differentially expressed GA pathway genes were identified by comparisons between YWl and sfl, and 28 differentially expressed GA pathway genes were identified between YW2 and sf2. In addition, the expression patterns of 45 differentially expressed genes were validated by quantificational real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and the results were highly concordant with the RNA-Seq results.' This transcriptome analysis provides valuable information for understanding the molecular mechanisms of fruit development of strawberry.展开更多

The formation of mRNA secondary and tertiary structures is one such regulatory process that until recently it has not been analysed in depth. Formation of these mRNA structures has the potential to enhance and inhibit alternative splicing of transcripts, and regulate rates and amount of translation. As this regulatory mechanism potentially impacts at both the transcriptional and translational level, while also potentially utilising the vast array of non-coding RNAs, it warrants further investigation. Currently, a variety of high- throughput sequencing techniques including parallel analysis of RNA structure (PARS), fragmentation sequencing (FragSeq) and selective 2-hydroxyl acylation analysed by primer extension (SHAPE) lead the way in the genome-wide identification and analysis of mRNA structure formation. These new sequencing techniques highlight the diversity and complexity of the transcriptome, and demonstrate another regulatory mechanism that could become a target for new therapeutic approaches.展开更多

Recent advances in chemistry combined with application of high-throughput sequencing have enabled structure profiling at transeriptome scale and in living cells, creating unprecedented opportunities for RNA biology. Propelled by these experimental advances, massive data with ever-increasing diversity and complexity have been generated, which give rise to new challenges in interpreting and analyzing these data. Results: We review current practices in analysis of structure profiling data with emphasis on comparative and integrative analysis as well as highlight emerging questions. Comparative analysis has revealed structural patterns across transcriptomes and has become an integral component of recent profiling studies. Additionally, profiling data can be integrated into traditional structure prediction algorithms to improve prediction accuracy. Conclusions: To keep pace with experimental developments, methods to facilitate, enhance and refine such analyses are needed. Parallel advances in analysis methodology will complement profiling technologies and help them reach their full potential.展开更多
