Project description:To understand differences of gene expression profiles between Francisella strains RNA profiles of Francisella strains were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using NovaSeq6000. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Our study represents the first detailed differential transcriptomic analysis of Francisella strains , with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.
Project description:Comparison of expression profiles of strains of Francisella to identify virulence factors We used custom microarrays to detail the global gene expression of four strains of Francisella (Schu4, LVS, OR960246, U112) and identified distinct classes of differentially expressed genes during this process.
