Project description:We report the application of Solexa/Illumina's digital gene expression (DGE) sequencing approaches to investigate inactivated Vibrio harveyi--induced transcriptome changes in Lateolabrax japonicas, a non model vertebrate species. Totally 3.44 and 3.22 million raw tags were measured. Then, gene annotation was performed by tags mapping analysis and the 169,950 non-redundant consensus sequences from RNA-seq based transcriptome analysis were used as reference transcript database. Tag mapping indicated that Vibrio harveyi--challenged adult Lateolabrax japonicas express over 70% of all genes represented in transcript databases. Meanwhile, totally 1224 consensus sequences exhibited significant difference after the bacterial challenge, in which 1183 transcripts can be well annotated, while approximately 41 transcripts have low sequence homology to the existing known sequences in public databases, suggesting that they might be putative novel immune-relevant genes in Lateolabrax japonicus closely related to the immunity for bacterial challenge. Our present study would greatly benefit to give deep insight into the immunogenetics in fish species, and clinical application in fish diseases. Examination of differentially expressed transcripts in baterial- and mock challenged fish.

Project description:Mytilus coruscus were injected with microbes into the adductor muscle. The microbes are Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Candida albicans. After microbial challenge, hemolymph was collected from the adductor muscle of M. coruscus at 2h post bacterial challenge. The hemolymph was isolated by 12% SDS-PAGE and the differential bands were collected for LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis.
Project description:In order to gain a better understanding of the impact of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection on genetic regulation of Litopenaeus vannamei,we performed a miRNA-seq analysis in the hepatopancreas of Litopenaeus vannamei challenged with Vibrio parahaemolyticus, using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform.
Project description:It was found that Vibrio splendidus could survive under high concentration of tetracycline, and the coelomic fluid of sea cucumber increased the tolerance of Vibrio splendidus to tetracycline. Therefore, the transcriptome was determined to find the cause of drug resistance in Vibrio splendidus.
