Project description:The experiment was designed to study the transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans wild-type CAI-4 strains and corresponding Histatin 5 treated strains. Since Histatin 5 will kill Candida albicans, the focus will be on how many and which genes are significantly affected with the treatment of Histatin 5. Currently, we only conducted the microarray experiments at one concentration of Histatin 5 and one time point of treatment. Keywords: cell type comparison
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans cells comparing control untreated C. albicans cells with sulfite-treated C. albicans cells. Sulfite is a toxic molecule that C. albicans encounters in its human host. Both wild type and ∆zcf2 mutant cells were used. The goal was to determine the effects of sulfite on C. albicans gene expression, and to determine which of the genes areZcf2-depedent.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans comparing pterostilbene treated cells with untreated cells Wild type Candida albicans strain SC5314 was selected to carry out the expression profile microarray. Two-condition experiment, pterostilbene treated vs. untreated cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 pterostilbene treated, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:Transcriptome profiling to identify Cap2/Hap43 regulons in the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans: Wild type vs. cap2D grown in iron-depleted medium
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans after 3 h phagocytosis by vehicle DMSO-treated macrophages (intact, expanding phagosomes) or calcium chelator BAPTA-AM-treated macrophages (inhibits lysosomal repair of expanding phagosomes, leading to phagosome rupture) to determine the effect of preventing phagosome expansion on C. albicans gene expression after phagocytosis by macrophages. Cultivation of Candida only for 3 h in DMEM-FBS cell culture medium or YPD complex medium as non-phagocytosis control conditions.
Project description:Mms21 deleteion in Candida albicans resulted in invasveness and filamentatation in YPD media at 30 degrees Celsius. Wild type SN148 do not make any Filaments in YPD at 30 degrees Celsius. The aim was to look for transcription profiling mms21 dleleted mutant against wild type to find genes up and down regulated in the mutant especially thoseones critical for filamentation.
