Project description:PKA/KIN-1 pathway is required for innate immunity in C. elegans, however, the downstream signaling is largely unclear. To gain further insight into mechanism underlying the promoted immunity of PKA/KIN-1 pathway, we performed genome microarrays of wild-type and kin-1(ok338) worms infection by Salmonella entericSL1344, compared with the controls wild-type fed E.coli OP50
Project description:The wild type (WT) and HSP-1 EEYD (worms generating endogenously mutated HSP-1) C. elegans were cultured under normal conditions (20 degrees) or exposed to 30 degrees for 16 hours as L4 larvae (referred to as heat stress/HS). In WT worms undergoing HS, the activity of CHN-1 ubiquitin ligase is anticipated to be inhibited by its interaction with wild-type HSP-1. In contrast, HSP-1 EEYD is expected not to inhibit CHN-1 in mutant worms, consequently leading to the degradation of a specific pool of proteins. This dataset unveils the identities of these proteins.
