Project description:Cronobacter sakazakii is a foodborne opportunistic pathogen that causes pneumonia, meningitis and bacteremia. To understand the acidic regulated and two component system PmrA/PmrB about strain pathogenesis, transcriptomics analysis of C. sakazakii grown under acidic pH 5.0 was performed by using RNA-sequencing.
Project description:CircRNAs are a recently well-known regulator that mediates a variety of biological processes. Cryptococcus neoformans is an environmental fungal pathogen that can cause fatal cryptococcal meningitis in immunocompromised individuals. However, the involvement of circRNA in cryptococcal infection remains unclear. In this study, high‐throughput microarray was performed to identify the circRNA expression profile in cryptococcal meningitis patients.
Project description:Genome sequence data results are reported from experimental and bioinfomatic work using the technique 'Bulk Segregant Analysis' to determine the genetic basis of observed resistance to the azole antifungal compound itraconazole in the opportunistic fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus.
