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.

Project description:We measured protein translation (by ribosome profiling) and RNA levels (by polyA-enriched RNA-seq) in Cryptococcus neoformans strain H99 and Cryptococcus neoformans strain JEC21. This is the first transcriptome-wide map of translation in this species complex.
Project description:Wild type strain H99 compared to independent sir2 deletion mutants grown to mid-log (0.6 OD600) in rich medium (YPD) shaking at 250rpm in baffled flasks.
Project description:Cryptococcus neoformans interactions with murine macrophages are critical for disease. In this project we analyzed fungal proteins which were co-purified with murine host proteins after interaction. H99 C. neoformans was opsonized with mAb 18B7 and addedd to murine macrophages. Then murine cells were lysed and cell extracts submitted to proteomics.
