Project description:Pioneering studies (PXD014844) have identified many interesting molecules by LC-MS/MS proteomics, but the protein databases used to assign mass spectra were based on short Illumina reads of the Amblyomma americanum transcriptome and may not have captured the diversity and complexity of longer transcripts. Here we apply long-read Pacific Bioscience technologies to complement the previously reported short-read Illumina transcriptome-based proteome in an effort to increase spectrum assignments. Our dataset reveals a small increase in assignable spectra to supplement previously released short-read transcriptome-based proteome.

Project description:The genome of two isogenic lines from Aedes aegypti from Ile Royale, French Guiana, with a marked difference in resistance to deltamethrin was investigated in order to understand the genetic basis of this phenotypic difference. Genomic sequencing was performed both with Illumina short, paired reads and with Minion long reads.
