Project description:Mar1 deletion and RNA enrichment in Cryptococcus neoformans: pilot data for a high-throughput sequencing course. The goal of this project was to generate pilot data in preparation for a summer course on high-throughput sequencing where participants prepared their own RNA-Seq libraries and analyzed the resulting data. This pilot experiment addressed two questions: 1. Does this experimental system (Cryptococcus neoformans H99 wildtype and mar1 deletion mutant grown in YPD and tissue culture media) provide a good dataset for course participants to analyze. 2. Which rRNA depletion method is best to use in the wetlab component of the course. This data was generated in preparation for the intensive summer course on high-throughput sequencing, funded by NIH grant 5R25EB023928-03 "A hands-on, integrative next-generation sequencing course: design, experiment, and analysis".
Project description:In this study, H99 is a wild type Cryptococcus neoformans strain. TJ1854 is a chromosome 4 disomy strain derived from H99. Approximately 1 million cells of TJ1854 were spread on YPD plate supplemented with 6ug/ml amphtericin B. Randomlyh 27 adaptors (TJ2487-TJ2513) were chosen. These adaptors were sequenced.
Project description:Cryptococcus neoformans lab strain H99 was spread on YPD plate supplemented with 4ug/ml benomyl. Randomly 60 adaptors were sequenced.
Project description:Cryptococcus neoformans lab strain H99 was spread on YPD plate supplemented with 2.5ug/ml chlorothalonil. Randomly 72 adaptors were sequenced.
Project description:In Cryptococcus neoformans, H99 is the wild type. TJ1843 is a strains with segmental disomy of chromosome 11, which is derived from H99. In this study, approximately 1 million cells of TJ1843 were spread on YPD plate supplemented with 32 ug/ml fluconazole. Randomly 27 adaptors (TJ3305 and TJ3331) were chosen. These adaptors were sequenced.
Project description:Cryptococcus neoformans lab strain H99 was spread on YPD plate supplemented with 1.5ug/ml pyraclostrobin. Randomly 23 adaptors were chosen. These adaptors were sequenced.
Project description:Cell-cycle transcript dynamics from two species of wild-type budding yeast growing at 30 degrees Celsius in rich media: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (BF264-15D background) and Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii (H99F background). We compared programs of cell-cycle-regulated genes between distantly related budding yeasts.
