Project description:Background: C. elegans fed with a chemical inhibitor of glucose, namely 2-deoxy-D-glucose (DOG), exhibit considerably extended life span. DOG, in contradiction to D-glucose, cannot be metabolized in the glycolytic pathway. This results in the fact that less glucose is available for ATP production, and thus makes DOG-feeding of the roundworms equivalent to glucose restriction. The RNA-seq data comprises 4 age groups (1, 5, 10 and 20 days after L4) 11 samples: mRNA profiles of 1-day, 5-day and 10-day old worms as triplicates for DOG treatment; mRNA profiles of 20-day old worms as duplicates for DOG treatment
Project description:Fannia canicularis (Linnaeus, 1761) is a species from the family Fanniidae. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of F. canicularis for the first time. The circular mitogenome is 15,826 bp in length, and includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a non-coding control region. The family Fanniidae formed a monophyletic clade in the phylogenetic tree based on 13 concatenated PCGs, sister to three other families in Diptera.
