Project description:Mutant T. gondii parasites lacking the hexokinase gene were viable. We carried genome wide expression analysis to identify genes that are differentially expressed in the mutant parasite with reference to wild type parental line. For this microarray analysis, we used the Affymetrix Toxoplasma gondii Custom GeneChip (CDF: ToxoDB version 5); Further details for this array can be found in the GEO platform ID GPL10000
Project description:Recent advances in high throughput sequencing methodologies allow the opportunity to probe in depth the transcriptomes of organisms including N. caninum and Toxoplasma gondii. In this project, we are using Illumina sequencing technology to analyze the transcriptome (RNA-Seq) of experimentally accessible stages (e.g. tachyzoites at different times points) of T. gondii VEG strain. The aim is to make comparative transcriptional landscape maps of Neospora and Toxoplasma at different time points at different life cycle stages and compare levels of expression of orthologous genes in these two organisms.
Project description:We used CRISPR to generate pools of T. gondii mutants in the presence of dihydroartemisinin to identify genes that confer increased or decreased sensitivity to this drug.
