Project description:We perform a self hybridisation comprative genomic hybridization (CGH) in order to validate the probe tiling design we done on Trichoderma reesei. This hybridization was done using QM6a wild type strain.

Project description:Trichoderma reesei is the main industrial producer of cellulases and hemicellulases used to depolymerize biomass in many biotechnical applications. Many production strains in use have been generated by classical mutagenesis. In this study we characterized genomic alterations in hyperproducing mutants of T. reesei by high-resolution comparative genomic hybridisation tiling array. We carried out aCGH analysis of four hyperproducing strains (QM9123, QM9414, NG14 and RutC-30) using QM6a genome as a reference. ArrayCGH analysis identified dozens of mutations in each strain analyzed. 2.1 million oligonucleotide probe custom aCGH (HD2 format, RocheNimblegen) was designed according to T. reesei strain QM6a genome v2.0 (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Trire2/Trire2.home.html). 14 samples are included in this set; 3 replicates of each strain (except two replicates of QM9123) were analyzed (four mutant strains and QM6a control strain for self-hybridization)

Project description:The ascomycete Trichoderma reesei is an industrial producer of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes and also serves as a model for investigations on these enzymes and their genes. The strain QM9978 has a cellulase negative phenotype and therefore presents a valuable tool for understanding the mechanisms underlying cellulase regulation. A transcriptomic analyses of the cellulase negative strain QM9978 and the original strain QM6a have been performed to identify the genetic differences between QM6a and QM9978 leading to the cellulase-negative phenotype
