Project description:To examine how the Arabidopsis root development responds to the Rhizobium sp. IRBG74 treatment at the molecular level, we performed RNA-seq experiments. Our RNA-seq results suggest that expression of genes mainly involved in auxin signaling, cell wall and cell membrane integrity and transport is altered in response to colonization by Rhizobium sp. IRBG74.
Project description:description Blastocystis sp. is a highly prevalent anaerobic eukaryotic parasite of humans and animals. The genome of several representatives has been sequenced revealing specific traits such as an intriguing 3’-end processing of primary transcripts. We have acquired a first high-throughput proteomics dataset on the difficult to cultivate ST4 isolate WR1 and detected 2,761 proteins. We evidenced for the first time by proteogenomics a functional termination codon derived from transcript polyadenylation for seven different key cellular components.
