Project description:We measured protein translation (by ribosome profiling) and RNA levels (by polyA-enriched RNA-seq) in Cryptococcus neoformans strain H99 and Cryptococcus neoformans strain JEC21. This is the first transcriptome-wide map of translation in this species complex.
Project description:We investigated the effects of the hypoxia-mimetic CoCl2 on the gene expression of pathogenic fungus Cryptococcus neoformans. Keywords: compound treatment design
Project description:We exposed Cryptococcus neoformans lab strain H99 to tunicamycin and obtained some adaptors. We did whole genome sequencing of these adaptors as well as the parent.
Project description:Light is a universal environmental signal perceived by many organisms, including the fungi in which light regulates both common and unique biological processes depending on the species. We conducted a whole-genome microarray analysis on the basidiomycete fungus Cryptococcus neoformans to identify light-regulated genes.
Project description:Proper mitochondrial function is critical for the ability of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans to cause disease. Mitochondrial dysfunction of WT cells treated with antimycin A or L-DOPA, or on cells lacking Cir1 is evident from this dataset. These experiments revealed influences on transcript levels of genes encoding Fe-S cluster assembly components and the response to oxidative stress in Cryptococcus neoformans.
