Project description:To study the consequences of MAK-2 activity modulation during vegetative cell fusion, we took advantage of a previously constructed allele of MAK-2 (MAK-2Q100G) to specifically perturb kinase signaling during germling vegetative cell fusion (inhibition of MAK-2Q100G activity by addition of the ATP analog 1NM-PP1 results in a phenotype indistinguishable from mak-2 deletion strains). Whole genome microarrays of mak-2Q100G cells following 20 min 1NM-PP1 treatment were performed. Two-condition experiment, Neurospora crassa cells containing MAK2Q100G allele treated with 1NM-PP1 inhibitor vs untreated control. Cy3 and Cy5 dye swaps were performed.

Project description:General impact of Jak1 and Jak2 inhibition on IFNg-mediated target gene expression. U4C-Jak1AS and g2A-Jak2AS cells were stimulated with IFNg and treated with either 1NM-PP1 (to inhibit the activity only of the analog-sensitive mutant) or JI1 (to suppress both wild-type and analog-sensitive Jaks) for 24h.
Project description:Multi-targeting priming (MTP) for genome-wide gene expression assays provides selective targeting of multiple sequences and counter-selection against undesirable sequences. We demonstrated superior performance of two MTPs compared to oligo-dT microarray profling and RNA tag sequencing the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to nitrogen deficiency and profiling Neurospora crassa early sexual development. Priming with MTPs in addition to oligo-dT resulted in higher sensitivity, a greater number of well-measured genes, more genes significantly differentially expressed, and a greater power to detect meager differences. Neurospora crassa mat A FGSC#2489 Three developmental stages and two different primers used for reverse transcription: mycelium oligo(dT) M1 protoperithecia oligo(dT) PP1 perithecia oligo(dT) PT1 mycelium oligo(dT)+ Multi-Targeted Primer [MTP] (M2) protoperithecia oligo(dT)+ MTP (PP2) perithecia oligo(dT)+ MTP (PT2)

Project description:Staurosporine induces programmed cell death in a series of organisms. Here, we analyse gene expression of the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa following exposure to staurosporine for different time periods. Cells incubated for 15, 30, 60 and 120 min in the presence (S) or absence (C) of staurosporine were compared; Cy3 and Cy5 dye swap
Project description:Elucidating the metabolome of the filamentous fungi Neurospora crassa to better understand the link between the circadian clock and metabolism; specifically the role that the clock plays in regulating cellulase production.
Project description:To determine the genes directly and indirectly under the control of the Grainy-head homolog (GHH) transcription factor in Neurospora crassa Three different sample types (Aerial Hyphae & Conidia; Mycelia; or Whole Colonies) of both wild-type (FGSC #2489) and grainy-head homolog (FGSC #13563) strains of Neurospora crassa were subjected to transcriptome analyses to determine the genes differentially expressed in the ghh background compared to wild type.
