Differential gene expression analysis for COL0(Wild Type) Vs OsGSTU30 overexpression transgenic Arabidopsis Thaliana line. Arabidopsis thaliana

Glutathione S-Transferases are multifunctional enzymes which play a significant role in detoxification of xenobiotics as well as endogenous compounds. Several GSTs have been found to be differentially regulated by various abiotic stresses and, few reports demostrated their function in abiotic stress tolerance. In this study, heterologous expression of rice OsGSTU30 was carried out in model plant i.e. Arabidopsis Thaliana. A genome wide comparative analysis was conducted between highest expressed transgenic line and Col0 (Wild Type) plants to monitor the effect of OsGSTU30 overexpression on global gene expression in Arabidopsis. We used Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencing platform for comparative transcriptome analysis.
