Project description:Genomic DNA from five strains, Aspergillus fumigatus Af71, Aspergillus fumigatus Af294, Aspergillus clavatus, Neosartorya fenneliae, and Neosartorya fischeri, were co-hybridized with that of Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 and compared.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in trichostatin A (TSA)-treated A. fumigatus Af293 compared to non-treated A. fumigatus Af293. Species: Aspergillus fumigatus; Strain: Af293; Type of array: Eukaryotic Expression (4plex, 2plex for a TSA-treated sample and 2plex for a non-treated sample); Technical replicates: Two per treatment.
Project description:The effect of cell free supernatant from the antifungal strain Lactobacillus plantarum 16 on the growth of Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 was assessed. Transcriptome analysis of the genome was performed after ten minutes exposure to antifungal supernatant in order to determine the molecular targets involved in inhibtion.
Project description:Experimental factor: Time after the temperature shift from 30C to 37C or 30C to 48C. Conidia (5x106 /ml) from Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 were incubated in the CM medium for germination (~ 17 hrs) at 30C. The culture was transferred to a water bath of 37C or 48C for continued growth. Samples were taken after the defined time (i.e. 0, 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180 min.).

Project description:To investigate the influence of Aspergillus fumigatus on iron regulation in macrophages, we obtained macrophages in culture from human derived monocytes and co-cultured the monocyte-derived macrophages with Aspergillus conidia at a 1:1 ratio. We collected samples at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours and extracted RNA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of control macrophages and macrophage co-cultured with Aspergillus fumigatus at five time points.
Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is an important human pathogen and a leading fungal killer. This study aimed to determine the small RNA repertoire of A. fumigatus in conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours in liquid culture.
