Project description:We used Candida albicans lab strain SC5314 to obtain tunicamycin adaptors. We did whole genome sequencing of the adaptors and the parent as well.
Project description:We use high-throughput sequencing to profile the response of the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans to mucins from the mucosal niche. We find that C. albicans undergoes a genome-wide phenotypic shift in response to mucins suppressing virulence-associated pathways.
Project description:Map ORC binding sites to identify replication origins in C. albicans by using polyclonal ORC antibodies (gift from Stephen Bell Lab). Due to the unsynchronized nature of Candida cells, log-phase cultures were taken to perfoem ChIP-chip experiments to find the genome-wide ORC binding sites.
