Project description:We sequenced Endogenous short RNAs in Mucor circinelloides fungus grown in standard liquid culture. Short RNAs were profiled in wild type, Dicer-like 1 mutant (dcl1-), Dicer-like 2 mutant (dcl2-) and double Dicer mutant (dcl1-/dcl2-) strains. We identified many loci that produced less short RNAs in the dcl2- strain suggesting that DCL2 is the major protein generating short RNAs in Mucor circinelloides.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of wild-type strain (R7B) of the fungus Mucor circinelloides comparing control mycelia grown for 18 hours in the dark with mycelia grown in the same conditions and illuminated with white light for 20 min. Goal was to identify genes regulated by a pulse of white light.
