Virtual Embryos As Tools For 3D Gene Expression Analyses

Uses of Virtual EmbryosThe use of standardized virtual embryos allows temporal comparison within each nucleus between earlier expression of regulators in one cohort and the later expression of target gene patterns in another cohort, as well as better estimates of the developmental increase in complexity.

Generating Virtual EmbryosBecause each imaged embryo contains expression information of only two genes, expression data from hundreds of embryos are mapped onto a virtual embryo to allow many genes’ expression to be compared and modeled within each cohort. These virtual embryos contain nuclei placed to match the average density pattern and embryo shape for each cohort.

Density changes through time (Keränen et al., Genome Biology 7:R124, 2006)

(Fowlkes et al. in preparation)

For example, the spatial expression of D, Kr, gt and slp1 change during stage 5. In virtual embryos, such

changes in multiple genes can be computationally analyzed in a standardized environment.

The expression of eve in cohort 6 (stage 5:76-100%) (A, B) compared to the expression patterns of gap genes in cohort 4 (stage 5:26-50%) (C, D). The expression levels of each eve stripe can be visualized and analyzed separately (B), and the relative expression levels of their putative regulators can be then studied in the corresponding nuclei either by analyzing their clustering in 3D scatter plots (C) or by observing the multigene expression profiles in parallel co-ordinate view (D) that also can contain 1D spatial information.

Mutants & Other SpeciesGene expression data in regulatory factor mutant embryos and other Drosophila species is also being collected.

Unrolled view on comparison of gt mRNA expression in D. melanogaster (green) and D. pseudoobscura (red)

aligned on eve mRNA expression (below). Note the relative positions of anterior gt stripes.

Dorsal-ventral signals affect the anterior-posterior pattern formation (Keränen et al., Genome Biology 7:R124, 2006). In dorsalized gd7 mutants the ventral ftz stripes resemble wild type dorsal ftz stripes (A), whereas in ventralized Toll10B mutants the dorsal ftz stripe positions resemble the wild type ventral ftz stripes (B). The intensity profiles of the stripes lose the dorsoventral polarity (D, F) that is seen in wild type looking embryos (C, E).

Collecting the Data

The 3D, full blastoderm images are analyzed and accurately converted into PointCloud files by an automated algorithm.

We currently have data for 24 of the principal

regulators and over 80 putative target genes, the

latter selected using BDTNP ChIP-chip binding

data and BDGP expression data.
