Project description:Ascaridia galli (A. galli) is one of the most common intestinal nematodes of domesticated chickens and the cause of avian ascaridiasis, a globally important disease in poultry. Its genome is sparsely sequenced and its proteome is uncharacterized. We her investigate the proteome composition in larvae and in female and male worms of A. Galli, querying the LC-MS/MS data against a hybrid database of two related nematodes; Ascaris suum and Anisakis simplex. We compare the proteome of larvae, female and male worms.
Project description:modENCODE_submission_4082 This submission comes from a modENCODE project of Kevin White. For full list of modENCODE projects, see http://www.genome.gov/26524648 Project Goal: The White Lab is aiming to map the association of all the Transcription Factors (TF) on the genome of Drosophila melanogaster. One technique that we use for this purpose is chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) utilizing an Illumina next generation sequencing platform. The data generated by ChIP-seq experiments consist basically of a plot of signal intensity across the genome. The highest signals correspond to positions in the genome occupied by the tested TF. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf EXPERIMENT TYPE: CHIP-seq.
