Project description:In order to study the effect of light on gene expression in Schizophyllum commune, genome wide gene expression was analysed in 4-day-old monokaryotic and dikaryotic wild type colonies, grown either in light or in darkness.
Project description:In order to study the effect of light on gene expression in Schizophyllum commune, genome wide gene expression was analysed in 4-day-old monokaryotic and dikaryotic wild type colonies, grown either in light or in darkness. 4 samples: - monokaryon, grown for 4 days in the light - monokaryon, grown for 4 days in the dark - dikaryon, grown for 4 days in the light - dikaryon, grown for 4 days in the dark RNA was obtained from 3 biological replicates and pooled
Project description:The transcription factors Hom2 and Fst4 were shown to be involved in mushroom development in the basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune. When the genes encoding Hom2 or Fst4 were deleted, no mushrooms formed. In this study we performed a genome-wide expression analysis on dikaryons of wild-type, delta-hom2 and delta-fst4.
Project description:Genome-wide expression analysis of dikaryotic colonies of Schizophyllum commune under various conditions: wild-type, delta-wc2, delta-wc2 hsp3(pr)-wc2
Project description:The transcription factors Hom2 and Fst4 were shown to be involved in mushroom development in the basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune. When the genes encoding Hom2 or Fst4 were deleted, no mushrooms formed. In this study we performed a genome-wide expression analysis on dikaryons of wild-type, delta-hom2 and delta-fst4. A total of three samples were analyzed. One wild-type and two deletion strains (delta-hom2 and delta-fst4)
Project description:The blue light receptor WC-2 was shown to be involved in mushroom development in the basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune. When the gene encoding WC-2 was deleted, no mushrooms formed and colony morphology was radial. This phenotype was similar to the wild-type colony grown in the dark. This phenotype could be complemented by transforming the wc-2 deletion strain with a construct encompassing the wc-2 coding sequence under the control of the heat inducible promoter hsp3. A daily heat shock of 1 hour at 42 degrees Celsius resulted in mushroom development and an asymmetrical colony. In this study we performed a genome-wide expression analysis on dikaryons of wild-type (not heat shocked), delta-wc2 (heat shocked or not heat shocked) and the complemented strain delta-wc2 hsp3-wc2 (heat shocked or not heat shocked).

One wild-type (not heat shocked), delta-wc2 (heat shocked or not heat shocked) and the complemented strain delta-wc2 hsp3-wc2 (heat shocked or not heat shocked).
Project description:In order to study changes in gene expression during mushroom development in Schizophyllum commune, genome wide gene expression was analysed in 4 developmental stages: vegetative mycelium, stage I aggregates, stage II primordia and mature mushrooms
