Project description:Recent advances in high throughput sequencing methodologies allow the opportunity to probe in depth the transcriptomes of organisms including N. caninum and Toxoplasma gondii. In this project, we are using Illumina sequencing technology to analyze the transcriptome (RNA-Seq) of experimentally accessible stages (e.g. tachyzoites at different times points) of T. gondii VEG strain. The aim is to make comparative transcriptional landscape maps of Neospora and Toxoplasma at different time points at different life cycle stages and compare levels of expression of orthologous genes in these two organisms.
Project description:Tartrolon E is a pan anti-apicomplexan compound derived from a symbiotic bacteria of shipworms. The mechanism of action of the compound is unknown, and attempts to select parasite mutants resistant to the compound has been unsuccessful. In this study, RNAseq was performed on human foreskin fibroblast cells (HFF) infected with Toxoplasma gondii RH strain and treated with Tartrolon E to identify genes targeted by the compound.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE11437: Expression QTL mapping of Toxoplasma gondii genes, Bradyzoite array GSE11514: Expression QTL mapping of Toxoplasma gondii genes, Tachyzoite array Keywords: SuperSeries Refer to individual Series
Project description:Expression profile microarray of human foreskin fibroblast cell comparing control untreated HFF cell with HFF cell infected with ME49 strain.Study on Toxoplasma gondii infection of HFF cell LncRNAs expression, for further studies on the differential exprssion of LncRNAs in HFF cell against the infection of Toxoplasma gondii research provide the basic function.
Project description:Two samples, 0hr and 72hr, were used to generate tachyzoite and bradyzoite transcriptional data from tissue-cultured Toxoplasma gondii strain Prugniaud, respectively.
