Project description:A procyclic form Trypansome brucei RNAi line (PTT parental line, transfected with pALC14 incorporating a TbNMD3 gene fragment) capable of inducing depletion of TbNMD3 was analysed for mRNA expression by RNAseq
Project description:Cy3 and Cy5 direct labelled RNA from Bloodstream MiTat1.1 trypanosomes and Procyclic 427 Lister were hybridized onto JCVI Trypanosoma brucei oligoarrays (version2). Procyclic RNA were used as control for data analysis.
Project description:Trypanosoma brucei gambiense is the causative agent of the fatal human disease African sleeping sickness. Here we have compared the transcriptome of two different life cycle stages, the potentially human-infective bloodstream form and the non-human-infective procyclic stage, using digital gene expression (DGE) analysis.
Project description:A phosphoproteomic analysis of heat shock response in the mammalian infective bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei was conducted using SILAC-based quantitation. Treatment at 41 0C for 1h produced significantly altered phosphorylation at 193 sites and significantly altered the abundance of 20 proteins.
