Project description:Zygoascus hellenicus (Candida hellenica) was isolated from a blood culture from a patient who had received an allogeneic stem cell transplant. The isolate displayed an antifungal susceptibility pattern of decreased susceptibility to fluconazole and itraconazole, high susceptibility to voriconazole, and low susceptibility to caspofungin. The organism was misidentified by a commercial yeast identification system. This is the first reported case of human infection with this rare ascomycetous yeast.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Spathaspora passalidarum NRRL Y-27907 grown aerobically in xylose, compared to the same strain grown aerobically in glucose. A six array study using total RNA recovered from three separate cultures of Spathaspora passalidarum NRRL Y-27907 grown in glucose and three separate cultures of Spathaspora passalidarum NRRL Y-27907 grown in xylose. Each array measures the expression level of 362,487 probes (average probe length 54.5 +/- 4.0 nt) tiled across the Spathaspora passalidarum NRRL Y-27907 genome with a median spacing distance of 29 nt. During data processing, probes are filtered to include only those probes corresponding to annotated protein-coding genes.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Candida tenuis NRRL Y-1498 grown aerobically in xylose, compared to the same strain grown aerobically in glucose. A six array study using total RNA recovered from three separate cultures of Candida tenuis NRRL Y-1498 grown in glucose and three separate cultures of Candida tenuis NRRL Y-1498 grown in xylose. Each array measures the expression level of 363,196 probes (average probe length 53.1 +/- 3.8 nt) tiled across the Candida tenuis NRRL Y-1498 genome with a median spacing distance of 24 nt. During data processing, probes are filtered to include only those probes corresponding to annotated protein-coding genes.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Lodderomyces elongisporus NRRL YB-4239 grown aerobically in xylose, compared to the same strain grown aerobically in glucose. A six array study using total RNA recovered from three separate cultures of Lodderomyces elongisporus NRRL YB-4239 grown in glucose and three separate cultures of Lodderomyces elongisporus NRRL YB-4239 grown in xylose. Each array measures the expression level of 371,451 probes (average probe length 54.1 +/- 4.1 nt) tiled across the Lodderomyces elongisporus NRRL YB-4239 genome with a median spacing distance of 33 nt. During data processing, probes are filtered to include only those probes corresponding to annotated protein-coding genes.
