Transcriptomes of individual Amphimedon queenslandica larvae and settled post...
To assess how larvae of different ages vary in their responses to different settlement cues, we induced individual Amphimedon queenslandica larvae with one of three different... -
Ribosomal RNA-depletion provides an efficient method for successful dual RNA-...
To determine the optimal RNA-Seq approach for animal host-bacterial symbiont analysis, we compared transcriptome bias, depth and coverage achieved by two different mRNA capture... -
Amphimedon queenslandica cell-type transcriptomes
It is widely accepted that animals evolved from a unicellular ancestor with an apical cilium surrounded by a microvillar collar that structurally resembled present-day sponge... -
Amphimedon queenslandica high resolution developmental transcriptomic time-co...
Classical embryological studies revealed that during mid-embryogenesis vertebrates show similar morphologies. This “phylotypic stage” has recently received support from... -
A high-resolution Amphimedon queenslandica transriptomic timecourse
Transcriptomic data for 59 single embryos and larvae samples of the sponge Amphimedon queenslandica Overall design: Transcriptomic data for 59 single embryos and larvae samples... -
Amphimedon queenslandica whole-genome bisulfite sequencing
First WGBS performed on a Profieran. -
Transcriptome of the demosponge Amphimedon queenslandica at life cycle transi...
Poriferans, like the demosponge Amphimedon queenslandica, are the earliest diverging metazoans and may hold the key to understanding the evolution of metazoan pathways. A.... -
Amphimedon queenslandica Transcriptome or Gene expression
Developmental Transcriptome of Amphimedon queenslandica -
Interdependent photo- and chemosensory systems regulate larval settlement in ...
Marine pelagic larvae from throughout the animal kingdom use a hierarchy of environmental cues to identify a suitable benthic habitat on which to settle and metamorphose into... -
Convergent evolution of a vertebrate-like methylome in a marine sponge
Vertebrates have highly methylated genomes at CpG positions while most invertebrates have sparsely methylated genomes. Therefore, hypermethylation is considered a major... -
The Early Origins and Evolution of microRNAs and piRNAs in Animals
We explored the potential for small RNA biology in organisms that diverged basal to Bilateria, identifying both miRNAs and piRNAs in Nematsotella and Amphimedon Overall design:... -
Landscape of histone modifications in a sponge reveals the origin of animal c...
We deep sequence DNA associated with immunoprecipitated chromatin containing histones with specific post-translational modifications (PTMs) to identify transcriptionally active... -
Early metazoan cell type diversity and the evolution of multicellular gene re...
We performed single-cell transcriptome analysis (using MARS-seq) in the sponge Amphimedon queenslandica (adult and larval stages), in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi (adult... -
Diverse RNA interference strategies in early-branching metazoans
To annotate the RNA interference repertoire of the demosponge Amphimedon queenslandica, we sequenced the small RNAs of four developmental stages - pre-competent larvae,... -
Tracking the origin and evolutionary dynamics of RNA editing in metazoans
Whole-genome DNA-seq and strand-specific RNA-seq on 18 species, including 14 metazoans and four unicellular eukaryotes closely related to metazoans. For each species, two to... -
ATAC-seq data of Amphimedon queenslandica (Demosponge species) through eight ...
We report a comprehensive DNA accessibility profile of the Demosponge species Amphimedon queenslandica using Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin with sequencing... -
Amphimedon queenslandica deep developmental transcriptomes
The demosponge Amphimedon queenslandica is amongst the few early-branching metazoans with an assembled and annotated draft genome, making it an important species in the study of... -
Phototransduction in a marine sponge provides insights into the origin of ani...
