Project description:In this study transcriptomic data of three life history stages of Orciraptor agilis was generated: 1) Gliding cells in absence of food ('gliding'), 2) Cells attached to the cell wall of its algal prey during perforation ('fattacking'), 3) Cells after acquisition of the algal plastid material ('digesting'). Furthermore, RNA-seq of the algal prey Mougeotia sp. was also performed. A de novo transcriptome assembly of the algal reads was performed in order to identify and substract algal reads of the Orciraptor samples by mapping the Orciraptor reads to the algal transcriptome. After this filtering step the remaining Orciraptor reads from all libraries were pooled for a de novo transcriptome assembly of Orciraptor agilis. This transcriptome was the basis for a comparative transcriptomic study in which transcript expression was compared between the three life history stages.
Project description:We predicted genes and their exon-intron structure for the E. agilis genome based on a transcriptome alignment with RNA-seq reads from E. agilis cells cultured under various conditions.
Project description:To analyze the transcriptome after heat stress in Euglena agilis, we analyzed a series of RNA-seq data from E. agilis cells grown under control (23°C) and heat stress (35°C) conditions at 2 time-points (at 8 and 24 h of heat stress exposure).
Project description:RNAsequening revolutionized the bacterial gene expression analysis. The objective of this study was to identify the genes involved in metabolism of Inulin in Ligilactobacillus agilis. We have obtained a list of genes upregulated in Ligilactobacillus agilis when it is grown in 1% Inulin
