Project description:Ganoderma colossum (Fr.) Baker, a white rot fungus distributed in tropical and subtropical forests, is a rare Ganoderma mushroom belonging to the family Ganodermataceae. In Asia, the fruiting body of G. colossum has been used as tonics or as folk medicine for a variety of illnesses, including malignant diseases. Colossolactone H (colo H) as a new compound was isolated and studied for its anticancer mechanism in human lung cancer H1650 cells. We used microarrays to analyze the gene expression changes upon colo H treatment that helped underlying the molecular mechanism of colo H in H1650 lung cancer cells. The H1650 cells treated with colo H for 12 and 24 h for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:We used PacBio data to identify more reliable transcripts from hESC, based on which we can estimate gene/transcript abundance better from Illumina data. PacBio long reads and Illumina short reads were generated from the same hESC cell line H1. PacBio reads were error-corrected by Illumina reads to identify transcripts. rSeq is used to estimate gene/transcript abundance of the identified transcriptome.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of CENH3 in the Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Col-0, Ler-0, Cvi-0 and Tanz-1 was performed in order to align reads to PacBio HiFi genome assemblies which contain complete centromere repeat arrays.
