Project description:The gametocyte transcriptomes were generated in P.falciparum parasites of 3D7 strain after PfHP1 depletion aming to determin the transriptional profiles of sexual stages during the parasites gametocyte development.
Project description:This experiment characterizes the localisation of H2A.Z, H3K9ac and H3K4me3 in the epigenome of the human malaria parasite, P. falciparum at 4 different stages of intraerythrocytic development. Examination of H2A.Z, H3K9ac, H3K4me3 and mono-nucleosomal input in 3D7 strain at 4 different stages and H2A in 3D7 strain at 1 stage using native ChIP-seq
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 delta-PfPuf2 mutant, compared to the wild-type strain 3D7. The mutation engineered into this strain render tanslational control. The mutants analyzed in this study are further described in Miao J, Li J, Fan Q, Li X, Li X, Cui L.2010. The Puf-family RNA-binding protein PfPuf2 regulates sexual development and sex differentiation in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. J Cell Sci. 123(7):1039-49 (PMID 20197405).
Project description:Comaprision of P.falciparum clinical isolates showing Uncomplicated disease with that shwoing complicated disease(Cerebral malaria) The experiment was designed to try and identify differences if any, at the genome level between P.falciparum isolates from patients with uncomplicated malaria vs. patients with complicated malaria (Cerebral malaria). The emphasis was to highlight possible amplifications/deletions in different regions of the parasite genome.
Project description:The time course transcriptome were generated in Plasmodium falciparum parasite of 3D7 strain by collecting RNA samples every 2 hours during 48 hours of the full intraerythrocytic developmental cycle.

A 12 chip study using total RNA recovered from six separate wild-type cultures of Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 at gametocyte stage III (three cultures) and stage V (three cultures) and six separate cultures of dalta PfPuf2 mutant at gametocyte stage III (three cultures) and stage V (three cultures). Each chip measures the expression level of 5,367 genes from Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 with 45-60 mer probes with two replicates on final array of 71618 probes.
Project description:ChIP-seq experiments were performed for the putative Telomere Repeat-binding Zinc finger protein (PfTRZ) in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum strain 3D7. The gene encoding this factor (PF3D7_1209300) was endogenously tagged with either a GFP- or a 3xHA-tag and these transgenic parasite lines were used in ChIP-sequencing experiments. Sequencing of the ChIP and input libraries showed enrichment of PfTRZ at all telomere-repeat containing chromosome ends (reference genome Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 from PlasmoDB version 6.1) as well as in all upsB var promoters.In addition,PfTRZ was enriched at seven additional, intra-chromosomal sites and called in the PfTRZ-HA ChIP-seq only.
