So-called ‘‘genetical genomics’’ studies have identified locally acting +eQTLs (cis-eQTLs) for genes that show differences in steady-state RNA levels. These studies have also +identified distantly acting master-modulatory trans-eQTLs that regulate tens or hundreds of transcripts +(hotspots or transbands). We expand on these studies by performing genetical genomics experiments in +two environments in order to identify trans-eQTL thatmight be regulated by developmental exposure to +the neurotoxin lead. Flies from each of 75 RIL were raised from eggs to adults on either control food +(made with 250 mM sodium acetate), or lead-treated food (made with 250 mM lead acetate, PbAc). RNA +expression analyses of whole adult male flies (5–10 days old) were performed with Affymetrix DrosII +whole genome arrays (18,952 probesets). Among the 1389 genes with cis-eQTL, there were 405 genes +unique to control flies and 544 genes unique to lead-treated ones (440 genes had the same cis-eQTLs in +both samples). There are 2396 genes with trans-eQTL which mapped to 12major transbands with greater +than 95 genes. Permutation analyses of the strain labels but not the expression data suggests that the +total number of eQTL and the number of transbands are more important criteria for validation than the +size of the transband. Two transbands, one located on the 2nd chromosome and one on the 3rd +chromosome, co-regulate 33 lead-induced genes, many of which are involved in neurodevelopmental +processes. For these 33 genes, rather than allelic variation at one locus exerting differential effects in two +environments, we found that variation at two different loci are required for optimal effects on leadinduced +expression.</p> +<p class="subtitle">Materials and Methods:</p> +<p>The 75 Drosophila roo lines were obtained from Trudy Mackay. +To avoid batch effects (Zakharkin et al., 2005), the growth of the +flies, the RNA extraction and the order of running the arrays, and +the fluidics well used for each array was completely randomized +for the 75 lines in two treatments. Control food consisted of +standard cornmeal, agar, sugar, yeast, and 250 mM NaAc (Ashburner, +1989). Lead-contaminated food consisted of standard food +plus 250 mM PbAc (lead exposure at this concentration has been +shown to affect locomotion in adults; Hirsch et al., 2003). Flies +from each of the 75 roo lines (20 males and 20 females) were +placed in a vial with 10 ml of food (control or PbAc) for 3 days at +25 8C and allowed to lay eggs; the adults were subsequently +discarded. Newly enclosed adult males were placed on the same +medium (control or PbAc) as had been present during pre-adult +development for 5–10 days before being used as subjects. Male +progeny were pooled from each vial (65 males per vial) and frozen +at 80 8C. RNA samples were extracted in groups of 24 and arrays +hybridization run in groups of 4 with 3 groups run per day. Effects +of RNA extraction and array hybridizations day were examined by +ANOVA and Support Vector approaches and no obvious day effects +were observed.</p> +<p class="subtitle">Data Source Acknowledgements:</p> +<p> +<p>This work was supported by the Environmental Health Sciences +Center in Molecular and Cellular Toxicology with Human +Applications Grant P30 ES06639 at Wayne State University, NIH +R01 grants ES012933 and CA105349 to D.M.R., DK071073 to X.L., +and UAB-CNGI grant to M.D.G.
