Project description:The parasite species complex Anisakis simplex sensu lato (Anisakis simplex sensu stricto; (A. simplex s.s.), A. pegreffii, A. simplex C) is the main cause of severe anisakiasis (allergy) worldwide and is now an important health matter. In this study, the relationship of this Anisakis species complex and their allergenic capacities is assessed by studying the differences between the two most frequent species (A. simplex s.s., A. pegreffii) and their hybrid haplotype by studying active L3 larvae parasiting Merluccius merluccius.
Project description:Protein extracts from Anisakis simplex L3 larvae were autoclaved at 121C for 60 min. Subsequently, prepared samples were analyzed in LC-MS/MS to identify autoclave-resistant proteins (also allergens).

Project description:Genotyping of RpoD mutants via amplicon sequencing from the following manuscript: \\"Systematic dissection of σ70 sequence diversity and function in bacteria\\" by Park and Wang (2020). Includes raw sequencing reads from samples from MAGE-seq single codon saturation mutagenesis and high-throughput fitness competition experiment as well as the RpoD ortholog mutants generated through recombineering and CRISPR selection.
