Transcriptome dataset of Caenorhabditis elegans responses to varied microbial pathogens.

ABSTRACT: Transcriptome analysis through next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an invaluable tool for investigating changes in gene expression across diverse organisms. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) serves as an excellent model organism for dissecting host responses to bacterial infections. Here, our dataset obtained from bulk RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) can be used to provide in-depth characterization of the mRNA transcriptome profiles of wild-type N2 animals and null mutants of the cytoskeletal regulatory gene unc-53/Nav2 following exposure to distinct bacterial environments: their natural laboratory food source, Escherichia coli OP50, the human and nematode pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14, and the emerging pathogen Elizabethkingia anophelis
