Project description:We profile transcriptome-wide m6A in female and male Anopheles sinensis and reveal that m6A is also a highly conserved modification of mRNA in mosquitoes were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using illumina Novaseq™ 6000. Distinct from mammals and yeast, but similar to Arabidopsis thaliana, m6A in An. sinensis is enriched not only around the stop codon and within 3’-untranslated regions, but also around the start codon and 5’-UTR. Gene ontology analysis indicates that the unique distribution pattern of m6A in An. sinensis is associated with mosquito sex-specific pathways. In addition, the positive correlation between m6A deposition and mRNA abundance indicates that m6A can play roles in regulating gene expression in mosquitoes. Our study proposed a transcriptional regulatory network of m6A in An. sinensis, which may provide a new clue for the control of this disease-transmitting vector.
Project description:We investigate the global miRNA expression profile of An. sinensis using illumine Hiseq 2000 sequencing.The annotation and prediction of miRNAs lays the foundation for the further functional study of An. sinensis miRNAs and will facilitate their application in vector control.
Project description:The transcriptome profiling five tissues of juvenile Eriocheir sinensis, including gill, muscle, thoracic ganglion, eyestalk and hepatopancreas, were sequenced to get the basic dataset for constructed a genome-scale metabolic network model for E. sinensis. The model was used to predict the optimal nutrient requirements of E. sinensis in feed and suggestions for feed improvement were put forward based on the simulation results.
Project description:Purpose: transcriptome sequencing of Conopomorpha sinensis Methods: high-through Illumina HiSeqTM 2000 Results:66017 transcripts,35383 unigenes Conclusions:This study provided valuable transcriptome data for the litchi fruit borer, which was the first fundamental genomic basis for exploiting gene resources from the litchi fruit borer
