Project description:Map ORC binding sites to identify replication origins in C. albicans by using polyclonal ORC antibodies (gift from Stephen Bell Lab). Due to the unsynchronized nature of Candida cells, log-phase cultures were taken to perfoem ChIP-chip experiments to find the genome-wide ORC binding sites.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans cells comparing control untreated C. albicans cells with sulfite-treated C. albicans cells. Sulfite is a toxic molecule that C. albicans encounters in its human host. Both wild type and ∆zcf2 mutant cells were used. The goal was to determine the effects of sulfite on C. albicans gene expression, and to determine which of the genes areZcf2-depedent.

Due to the unsynchronized nature of Candida cells, log-phase cultures were taken to perfoem ChIP-chip experiments to find the genome-wide ORC binding sites. ChIP-chip experiments from log-phase C. albicans culture. 7 different unsynchronized log-phase cultures as replicates.
