Organism |
Drosophila melanogaster |

Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing

Summary |
During meiosis, germ cell and stage-specific components impose additional layers of regulation on the core cell cycle machinery to set up an extended G2 period termed meiotic prophase. In Drosophila males, meiotic prophase lasts 3.5 days, during which spermatocytes upregulate over 1800 genes and grow 25-fold. Previous work has shown that the cell cycle regulator Cyclin B (CycB) is subject to translational repression in immature spermatocytes, mediated by the RNA-binding protein Rbp4 and its partner Fest. Here, we show that the spermatocyte-specific protein Lut is required for translational repression of cycB in an 8-h window just before spermatocytes are fully mature. In males mutant for rbp4 or lut, spermatocytes enter and exit meiotic division 6-8 h earlier than in wild type. In addition, spermatocyte-specific isoforms of Syncrip (Syp) are required for expression of CycB protein in mature spermatocytes and normal entry into the meiotic divisions. Lut and Syp interact with Fest independent of RNA. Thus a set of spermatocyte-specific regulators choreograph the timing of expression of CycB protein during male meiotic prophase.

Overall design |
These RNAseq libraries were used as control for easyCLIP analysis. We used 150 pairs of testes from 0-2 day-old wild type male flies per replicate. We chose Bam>GAL4 flies as WT samples.
