Project description:Profile the microRNA expression in the Gracilis muscle of rat after 4h ischemia and 24 h reperfusion Following 4 h of ischemia and subsequent reperfusion for 4 h of the gracilis muscles, the specimens were analyzed with an Agilent rat miRNA array to detect the expressed miRNAs in the experimental muscles compared to those from the sham-operated controls.
Project description:We sequenced and assembled a detailed transcriptome and draft genome for E. gracilis Z1. To improve annotation and investigate gene expression in E. gracilis, where most transcripts are also trans-spliced, we conducted comparative proteomic and transcriptomic analysis between light and dark-adapted E. gracilis. The analysis revealed that alterations to protein abundance are controlled post-transcriptionally, surprisingly similar to trypanosomatids.
