Project description:We carried out immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry (IP-MS) analysis to identify the protein components of PGL granules in heat-stressed embryos. GFP::PGL-3 proteins were immunoprecipitated from extracts of embryos grown at 26 oC and the interacting proteins were identified by LC-MS/MS. Proteins involved in translation and RNA control factors (e.g. RNA binding proteins, ribonucleases, RNA helicases, proteins involved in siRNA-mediated mRNA turnover) were enriched in the GFP::PGL-3 co-immunoprecipitants
Project description:LYS142, LYS143, LYS14 and LYS144 compose a family of recently duplicated transcription regulators in C. albicans. They have differentiated from one another by acquiring a largely separate set of target genes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of GFP-LYS142, GFP-LYS143, GFP-LYS14 and GFP-LYS144 followed by array hybridization (Agilent) uncovered a network of target genes controlled by these regulators in the yeast C. albicans.
Project description:In this project we aimed at identifying proteins interacting with Snx33. For this purpose, we have generated a Snx33 knockout cell lines with GFP-tagged full length Snx33 and GFP-tagged truncation of Snx33: dPXBAR (1-214aa) and PXBAR (159-574aa).
Project description:The transcription regulators HMS1, RTG1, RTG3, ZCF21, LYS14 and LYS144 play roles in the proliferation of C. albicans in a mammalian host. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of HMS1-MYC, RTG1-MYC, RTG3-MYC, GFP-ZCF21, GFP-LYS14, GFP-LYS144 followed by array hybridization (Agilent) uncovered a network of target genes required for C. albicans to thrive in the host.
Project description:To determine the genome-wide occupancy of the Plasmodium falciparum transcriptional regulator of invasion PfAP2-I (PfDd2_100013100/PF3D7_1007700), we used chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with next-generation sequencing (ChIP-seq). Synchronized, schizont stage, 40 hours post-invasion, cultures of parasites expressing the AP2-I-GFP fusion protein were treated with formaldehyde to crosslink proteins to DNA and harvested. After shearing the DNA, the chromatin was incubated with anti-GFP antibody or IgG (as control) for immunoprecipitation. This material was used to generate Illumina sequencing libraries. The final libraries were multiplexed with fourteen barcoded samples per lane on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 system to generate 150 base pair single-end reads.
