Project description:Comparison of transcriptional profiles of WT Cryptococcus neoformans (H99) and strain CM126 (pRPL2b-GAT201) which overexpresses the transcription factor GAT201 using a ribosomal protein promoter Keywords: Genetic modification
Project description:A singleplex PCR assay using a single primer pair targeting the putative sugar transporter gene was developed here to distinguish Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii, Cryptococcus neoformans var. neoformans, and Cryptococcus gattii according to the distinct size of the amplicon. The interspecies and intravarietal hybrids were also characterized on the basis of distinct combined profiles of amplicons. This PCR assay is a rapid, simple, and reliable approach suitable for laboratory diagnoses and large-scale epidemiologic studies.
Project description:Comparison of transcriptional profiles of WT Cryptococcus neoformans (H99) and strain CM126 (pRPL2b-GAT201) which overexpresses the transcription factor GAT201 using a ribosomal protein promoter Keywords: Genetic modification WT vs. CM126 competitive hybridization. 4 biological replicates including 2 dye flips. Cultures grown at 37 degress Celsius in minimal (YNB) medium. Cultures independently grown and harvested during exponential growth.
