Project description:Genomic DNA from five strains, Aspergillus fumigatus Af71, Aspergillus fumigatus Af294, Aspergillus clavatus, Neosartorya fenneliae, and Neosartorya fischeri, were co-hybridized with that of Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 and compared.
Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is an important human pathogen and a leading fungal killer. This study aimed to determine the small RNA repertoire of A. fumigatus in conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours in liquid culture.
Project description:By searching for new drugs against fungal pathogens, we found that miltefosine is active against Aspergillus fumigatus clinical isolates. A library of transcription factors (TF) null mutants was then challenged with this drug and we discovered a novel TF that confers resistance to miltefonise, named here SmiA. By using ChIP-seq, we searched for SmiA targets upon miltefosine treatment.
Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is an important human pathogen and a leading fungal killer. This study aimed to determine the tRNA fragment and tRNA half repertoire of A. fumigatus in wild-type conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours in liquid culture.
Project description:Amphotericin B (AMB) is the most widely used polyene antifungal drug for the treatment of systemic fungal infections including invasive aspergillosis. We aimed to understand molecular targets of AMB in Aspergillus fumigatus (Afu) by genomic approaches. Keywords: Aspergillus fumigatus treated with amphotericin B for 24 hours
Project description:To investigate the influence of Aspergillus fumigatus on iron regulation in macrophages, we obtained macrophages in culture from human derived monocytes and co-cultured the monocyte-derived macrophages with Aspergillus conidia at a 1:1 ratio. We collected samples at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours and extracted RNA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of control macrophages and macrophage co-cultured with Aspergillus fumigatus at five time points.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE24983: Response of A549 cells treated with Aspergillus fumigatus [WT-CF_vs_WT-GC] GSE24984: Response of A549 cells treated with Aspergillus fumigatus [WT-GC_vs_PrtT-GC] GSE24985: Response of A549 cells treated with Aspergillus fumigatus [WT-CF_vs_PrtT-CF] Refer to individual Series

We aimed to understand molecular targets of AMB in Aspergillus fumigatus (Afu) by genomic approaches. Amphotericin B (AMB) is the most widely used polyene antifungal drug for the treatment of systemic fungal infections including invasive aspergillosis. We aimed to understand molecular targets of AMB in Aspergillus fumigatus (Afu) by microarray and proteomic methods. Keywords: Aspergillus fumigatus treated with amphotericin B for 24 hours Experiment was performed in dye swap manner from two different biological replicates
