My lab’s three visual analytic tools for transcrip tomic data (eFP Browser\, ePlant\, and eFP-Seq Browser) allow for rapid ac cess to comprehensive gene expression compendia we have curated for identi fying tissues\, cell-types\, or perturbations in which a gene is active or alternatively spliced. Interactions\, be they protein-protein or regulato ry\, create networks. We have developed new tools for exploring such data\ , either from large collections of experimentally-supported protein-protei n or protein-DNA interactions or from predicted interactions\, including p rotein-protein interactions inferred from molecular docking studies. Our l ab is also interested in generating data to help understand drought respon ses and we have modified the INTACT system to isolate transcriptomes from guard cells and whole leaves of plants subject to slowly developing drough t. Using some of the above-mentioned tools and other bioinformatic analyse s\, we have been able to show that guard cells exhibit unique patterns of response both at early and later stages of drought. Thermal imaging of rev erse genetic lines\, prioritized in part using BAR tools\, suggests the ph ysiological importance several differentially expressed genes in guard cel ls from droughted plants.\nNicholas Provart is a full professor of Plant C yberinfrastructure and Systems Biology and is chair of the Department of C ell & Systems Biology at the University of Toronto. Currently his Bio-Anal ytic Resource (BAR) at bar.utoronto.ca\, comprising tools for coexpression analysis of publicly-available gene expression data\, cis-element predict ion\, identifying molecular markers\, generating “electronic fluorescent pictographic” (eFP) representations of gene expression patterns\, and e xploring protein-protein interactions in Arabidopsis and other plants\, re ceives 4M page views a month by researchers worldwide. He is one of the fo unding members of the International Arabidopsis Informatics Consortium\, i s president of the Multinational Arabidopsis Steering Committee\, and is t eaching two MOOCs on Bioinformatic Methods on Coursera.org\, with a 3rd re leased in December 2018 and a capstone rounding out a Plant Bioinformatics specialization in 2019. He was a Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher for th ree years.\n\n\n UID:040000008200E00074C5B7101A82E00800000000C07227A37953D901000000000000000 010000000BB4041CF716DC64D963681622E57B807 SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-US:School of Plant Sciences Seminar - Dr. Nicholas Prov art - Raising the BAR for Hypothesis Generation in Plant Biology: Guard Ce ll Drought Transcriptomes Use Case DTSTART;TZID=US Mountain Standard Time:20230314T160000 DTEND;TZID=US Mountain Standard Time:20230314T170000 CLASS:PUBLIC PRIORITY:5 DTSTAMP:20230311T010330Z TRANSP:OPAQUE STATUS:CONFIRMED SEQUENCE:0 LOCATION;LANGUAGE=en-US:Marley 230 & https://arizona.zoom.us/j/88614287572 password: spls2023 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-APPT-SEQUENCE:0 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-OWNERAPPTID:1735014375 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-BUSYSTATUS:TENTATIVE X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INTENDEDSTATUS:BUSY X-MICROSOFT-CDO-ALLDAYEVENT:FALSE X-MICROSOFT-CDO-IMPORTANCE:1 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INSTTYPE:0 X-MICROSOFT-DONOTFORWARDMEETING:FALSE X-MICROSOFT-DISALLOW-COUNTER:TRUE X-MICROSOFT-LOCATIONS:[ { "DisplayName" : "Marley 230 & https://arizona.zoo m.us/j/88614287572 password: spls2023"\, "LocationAnnotation" : ""\, "Loca tionSource" : 0\, "Unresolved" : true\, "LocationUri" : "" } ] BEGIN:VALARM DESCRIPTION:REMINDER TRIGGER;RELATED=START:-PT15M ACTION:DISPLAY END:VALARM END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
