Project description:Two mutant strains of Aspergillus fumigatus derived from strain A1160, HapB and 29.9, display resistance to the antifungal drug itraconazole. To understand what underlying transcriptional processes contribute to this resistance, A1160, HapB and 29.9 were cultured either in the presence or absence of itraconazole. RNA-sequencing was used to compare transcription profiles of each mutant strain with or without the drug, to A1160 with or without drug.
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:Aspergillus fumigatus mutant strains were collected from bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BALFs) during acute mouse infection (4 and 12 hours).
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.
Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is an important human pathogen and a leading fungal killer. This study aimed to determine the tRNA fragment and tRNA half repertoire of A. fumigatus in wild-type conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours in liquid culture.
