Project description:To profile genome-wide allele-specific expression in an unbiased manner we designed a high-resolution yeast tiling microarray that covers the genomes of both the laboratory strain S288c and the recently sequenced clinical isolate YJM789. This array design allows simultaneous expression profiling of allelic variants in a heterozygous hybrid strain. We hybridized cDNA from the heterozygous Y/S and from the homozygous S and Y strains grown in rich medium (YPD). Strand specificity during sample preparation was maintained by inclusion of actinomycin D during reverse transcription to prevent spurious synthesis of second strand cDNA.
Project description:A new haloalkaliphilic species of Wenzhouxiangella, strain AB-CW3 was isolated from a system of alkaline soda lakes in the Kulunda Steppe. Its complete, circular genome was assembled from combined nanopore and illumina sequencing and its proteome was determined for three different experimental conditions: growth on Staphylococcus cells, casein, or peptone. AB-CW3 is an aerobic bacterium feeding mainly on proteins and peptides.
Project description:Azole resistance was induced in vitro by growth of a susceptible C. parapsilosis isolate in the presence of voriconazole. Whole genome microarrays were used to compare the transcriptional response of the voriconizole-resistant and susceptible isolates. Transcriptional profile of an in vitro derived voriconazole-resistant isolate of C. parapsilosis (BC014VRC) compared to the susceptible isolate (BC014S). Cell were grown in YPD medium in normoxia at 35 degrees. Each strain was labelled with Cy3 or Cy5. Overall, 4 independent biological replicates were compared; 2 dye swaps were performed to normalize dye effects.
