Gene model for the ortholog of wrd in Drosophila ananassae

Megan E Lawson et al. MicroPubl Biol. .

Abstract

Gene model for the ortholog of well-rounded ( wrd ) in the May 2011 (Agencourt dana_caf1/DanaCAF1) Genome Assembly (GenBank Accession: GCA_000005115.1 ) of Drosophila ananassae . This ortholog was characterized as part of a developing dataset to study the evolution of the Insulin/insulin-like growth factor signaling pathway (IIS) across the genus Drosophila using the Genomics Education Partnership gene annotation protocol for Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences.

Figure 1. wrd gene model comparison between Drosophila ananassae and Drosophila melanogaster orthologs
(A) Synteny of genomic neighborhood of wrd in D. melanogaster and D. ananassae . Gene arrows pointing in the same direction as reference gene in both D. ananassae and D. melanogaster are on the same strand as the reference gene; gene arrows pointing in the opposite direction are on the opposite strand. The thin underlying arrows pointing to the right indicate that wrd is on the + strand; arrows pointing to the left indicate that wrd is on the – strands. White arrows in D. ananassae indicate the locus ID and the orthology to the corresponding gene in D. melanogaster and black arrows indicate a non-orthologous gene. The gene names given in the D. ananassae gene arrows indicate the orthologous gene in D. melanogaster , while the locus identifiers are specific to D. ananassae . (B) Gene Model in UCSC Track Hub (Raney et al. , 2014): the gene model in D. ananassae (black), Spaln of D. melanogaster Proteins (purple, alignment of RefSeq proteins from D. melanogaster ), BLAT alignments of NCBI RefSeq Genes (blue, alignment of RefSeq genes for D. ananassae ), RNA-Seq from adult females (red), adult males (blue), and embryos (pink) (alignment of Illumina RNA-Seq reads from D. ananassae ), and Transcripts (green) including coding regions predicted by TransDecoder and Splice Junctions Predicted by regtools using D. ananassae RNA-Seq (Gravely et al. , 2011; SRP006203 , PRJNA257286 , SRP007906 , PRJNA388952 ). Splice junctions shown have a minimum read-depth of 16 with 10-49, 50-99, 100-499, 500-999, >1000 supporting reads in blue, green, pink, brown, and red respectively. The custom gene model (User Supplied Track) is indicated in black with CDSs depicted with boxes and intron with narrow lines (arrows indicate direction of transcription). (C) Dot Plot of wrd-PK in D. melanogaster ( x -axis) vs. the orthologous peptide in D. ananassae ( y -axis). Amino acid number is indicated along the left and bottom; CDS number is indicated along the top and right, and CDSs are also highlighted with alternating colors. Box 1 highlights a region containing some repeats and low sequence similarity.
