ABSTRACT: The genome edting raw data of Nicotiana tabacum, Solanum lycopersicum, Capsicum chinense, Capsicum annuum, Physalis alkekengi, Arachis hypogaea respectively. Raw sequence reads
Project description:Six different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tuberosum), Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthamiana were grown at 25C, 16h light and 8h darkness. Mature leaves were harvested after 4-6 weeks. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Tomato, pepper, petunia tobacco and N. benthamiana samples were hybridized against potato samples.

Project description:Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are compounds with a variety of bioactive properties. Especially promising are their antibacterial activities, often towards drug-resistant pathogens. Across different AMP sources, AMPs expressed within plants are relatively underexplored, with a limited number of plant AMP families identified. Recently, we identified the novel AMPs CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2 in ghost pepper plants (Capsicum chinense x frutescens), exerting promising antibacterial activity and not classifying into any known plant AMP family. Herein, AMPs related to CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2 were identified within both Capsicum annuum and Capsicum baccatum. Targeted MS/MS experiments were performed to determine peptide sequences, guided by in silico AMP sequence predictions.
