Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in F. verticillioides FRC M-3125 when exposed to 50 ug/ml 2-benzoxazolinone (BOA). Cultures were harvested two hours after exposure. Assessed in reference to control cultures of M-3125 exposed to ethanol (1% final concentration) since BOA was dissolved in ethanol.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in F. verticillioides FRC M-3125 when exposed to 50 ug/ml 2-benzoxazolinone (BOA). Cultures were harvested two hours after exposure. Assessed in reference to control cultures of M-3125 exposed to ethanol (1% final concentration) since BOA was dissolved in ethanol. A four chip study using total RNA recovered from two separate control cultures of F. verticillioides FRC M-3125 in PDB containing 1% ethanol and two separate experimental cultures of M-3125 grown in PDB plus the added treatment of 50 ug/ml ethanolic BOA. The cultures were incubated for two hours on a rotary shaker (200 rpm) at 27C in the dark and then harvested by vacuum filtration and frozen in liquid nitrogen. The chips were a F. verticillioides custom 14K array based on platform GPL14669.
