Arabidopsis thaliana: transgenic plants vs wild type

Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana 12-days old seedlings comparing Col-0 wild type with transgenic plants with altered expression of dual-targetting plastid/mitochondrial organellar RNA-polymerase RPOTmp. Transgenic plants used for experiment were: overexpressor plants obtained by transformation of Col-0 WT plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016] contained catalytic part of RPOTmp enzyme with transit peptides of RPOTm (mitochondrial) and RPOTp (plastid) by agrobacterial transformation; plants with complementation of RPOTmp functions in mitochondria or chloroplasts obtained from transformation of GABI_286E07 rpotmp knockout-mutant plants with genetic constructs created in [Tarasenko et al., 2016]. Goal was to determine the effects of RPOTmp knockout/overexpression on global Arabidopsis thaliana gene expression. Two-condition experiment, WT vs. transgenic seedlings. Analytical replicates: 3 control replicates, 3 replicates of knockout mutant, 3 replicates of each of overexpressor (4), 3 replicates of each of complementant(3).
