Project description:We assessed the whole genome response of C. elegans exposed for 48 hours from L1 to the pristine silver nanomterials, artifically aged silver nanomatierls, and AgNO3.
Project description:Silver-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant was obtained by evolutionary engineering method. Briefly, genetic diversity in reference strain, CEN.PK.113-7D, was increased by ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS)-mutagenesis. The mutant population was passaged several times in gradually increasing silver stress. Several mutant individuals were selected from the final population. Among selected mutant individuals, one of them was much more resistant to silver stress than the reference strain, called as 2E. Whole-genome transcriptomic analysis was performed to identify the silver resistance mechanisms in the silver-resistant mutant strain.
Project description:We assessed the whole genome response of C. elegans exposed for 48 hours from L1 to the pristine silver nanomterials, artifically aged silver nanomatierls, and AgNO3. Single time point RNA extraction from a population of 2000-3000 nematodes exposed to the EC30 for reproduction.
Project description:Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 assay was used to study genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of Silver-Russel sydrome (SRS) patients.
