Project description:In this study, we performed deep sequencing and bioinformatics analyses of short RNAs from Plasmodium falciparum parasites to identify and characterize novel type of small RNAs. A total of 14,828,877 raw reads were produced from small RNA libraries. We detected a new type of small RNA from tranfer RNA known as tRFs.

Project description:Important regulation occurs at the level of transcription in Plasmodium falciparum and growing evidence suggests that these apicomplexan parasites have complex regulatory networks. Recent studies implicate long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) as transcriptional regulators in P. falciparum and as part of these regulatory networks. However, due to limited research and the lack of necessary experimental tools, our understanding of the role of lncRNAs in P. falciparum remains largely unelucidated. In this study, we improve the annotation of lncRNAs in order to provide researchers with a tool that will facilitate the study of P. falciparum lncRNAs in vitro.

Project description:Comparison of whole genome gene expression profiles for Plasmodium falciparum parasites perturbed with small molecules with diverse mechanisms of action. Perturbations were performed by treating each synchronized parasite culture with a given small molecule at 24 hrs post-eryhrocyte invasion and RNA collected 2 hrs post-exposure

Project description:Intermediate-size noncoding RNAs (is-ncRNAs) have been shown to play important regulatory roles in the development of several eukaryotic organisms. However, they have not been thoroughly explored in Plasmodium falciparum, which is the most virulent malaria parasite infecting human being. By using Illumina/Solexa paired-end sequencing of an is-ncRNA-specific library, we performed a systematic identification of novel is-ncRNAs in intraerythrocytic P. falciparum, strain 3D7. A total of 1,198 novel is-ncRNA candidates, including antisense, intergenic, and intronic is-ncRNAs, were identified. Bioinformatics analyses showed that the intergenic is-ncRNAs were the least conserved among different Plasmodium species, and antisense is-ncRNAs were more conserved than their sense counterparts. Twenty-two novel snoRNAs were identified, and eight potential novel classes of P. falciparum is-ncRNAs were revealed by clustering analysis. The expression of randomly selected novel is-ncRNAs was confirmed by RT-PCR and northern blotting assays. An obvious different expressional profile of the novel is-ncRNA between the early and late intraerythrocytic developmental stages of the parasite was observed. The expression levels of the antisense RNAs correlated with those of their cis-encoded sense RNA counterparts, suggesting that these is-ncRNAs are involved in the regulation of gene expression of the parasite. In conclusion, we accomplished a deep profiling analysis of novel is-ncRNAs in P. falciparum, analysed the conservation and structural features of these novel is-ncRNAs, and revealed their differential expression patterns during the development of the parasite. These findings provide important information. One RNA sample (50-500 nt ) from the mixed intraerythrocytic stage of P. falciparum 3D7, subjected to Illumina/Solexa paired-end sequencing

Project description:The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum employs intricate post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms in different stages of its life cycle. Despite the importance of post-transcriptional regulation, key elements of these processes, namely RNA binding proteins (RBPs), are poorly characterized. In this study, the RNA binding properties of P. falciparum proteins were characterized including two putative members of the Bruno/CELF family of RBPs (PfCELF1 and PfCELF2), dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (PfDHFR-TS), and adenosine deaminase (PfAda).The mRNA targets of these P. falciparum proteins were investigated by ribonomics using DNA microarrays.
