Project description:The purpose of this project was to determine the whole transcriptome response of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum SC596 to pooled and individual human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) relative to lactose
Project description:This study was designed to evaluate the proteome profiles of Piper nigrum when challenged with three different biotic stress. We have utilized a transcriptome-assisted protein identification pipeline coupled with a BLAST2GO annotation.
Project description:Piper longum L. is a well-known traditional antihyperlipidemic medicine,and it has ability to inhibit proliferation of cancer cells,potassium piperate (GBK) maybe have the same effect. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes during this process.
Project description:This experiment was used to determine the effect of a botanical insecticide upon gene expression profiles in Drosophila melanogaster. Adult female Drosophila (oregon-R strain) were treated with an ethylacetate extract of Piper nigrum (Piperaceae) seeds formulated in 99% ethanol. Treatment was topical, using a Potter's tower to administer a total of 2 mL of a 0.9mg/mL concentration. Control treatment was identical except flies were treated with 99% ethanol as a solvent control. Gene expression was studied four hours post-treatment. Keywords: insecticide response, stress-response
