Project description:This analysis defines the adult female and developmental specific transcriptomes of Aedes aegypti. Keywords: Aedews aegypti, development, gene expression
Project description:Custom microarrays were used to examine global differences in female vs. male gene expression in the developing pupal head of the dengue vector mosquito Aedes aegypti.
Project description:Sequencing of the Aedes aegypti genome has enabled genome-wide studies of gene expression in this mosquito. The large quantities of data produced from such studies require efficient cataloguing in order for new insight to be made into gene expression patterns and the underlying molecular mechanisms for producing these patterns. Our study provides a comprehensive catalogue of genes whose transcription products increase or decrease in abundance in adult females following blood feeding. We developed a publicly-accessible database and data-mining tool, aeGEPUCI, that integrates 1) stage-specific microarray analyses of gene expression in Ae. aegypti, 2) functional gene annotation, 3) genomic sequence data, and 4) computational sequence analysis tools. The database is accessible from the address http://www.aegep.bio.uci.edu.
Project description:In this study, 10x Chromium technology was applied to quantify transcripts from single-cell nuclei of adult male and female brain of Aedes aegypti, a medically important mosquito vector that transmits yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses to humans.
Project description:This analysis compare gene expression between 4 day old sugar fed female and male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Keywords: Aedes aegypti sex specific expression
