Project description:In this study, we used 13C and 15N labeled substrates to assess the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) assimilation by detecting 13C and 15N in proteins from microorganisms in the phototrophic microbial mats in a soda lake on the Cariboo Plateau, British Columbia, Canada. Metagenomic database used for protein identification and metagenome assembled genome membership had been previousl generated in Zorz et.al. (2019).
Project description:This study examines the impact of low salinity and temperature on L. redmanii parasitism in Lake Qarun, Egypt, with an emphasis on analyzing the functional gene expression of the parasite, based on RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Through the use of de novo transcriptome assembly, this research seeks to identify genes with differential expression in the parasite under different environmental conditions. Thereby, uncovering molecular pathways associated with stress adaptation, metabolism, and virulence.
