Project description:Chlamydomonas reinhardtii strain CC849 is seclected to sequence its transcriptome at different times under normal and stress conditions.Before we conducted RNA-sequencing at 0h (start point) and other seven timepoints(24hour, 48hour, 72hour, 96hour, 120hour, 168hour, 192hour) under normal and stress condition, respectively. These data are contained in GSE100763. Now, we add the RNA-seq data at 4hour, 12hour under normal and stress condition, respectively.

Project description:The current Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reference genome remains fragmented due to gaps stemming from large repetitive regions. To overcome the vast majority of these gaps, publicly available Oxford Nanopore Technology data were used to create a new reference-quality de novo genome assembly containing only 21 contigs, 30/34 telomeric ends, and a genome size of 111 Mb.
Project description:RNA populations in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Keywords: Highly parallel pyrosequencing Small RNAs were prepared from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii total extracts,ligated to a 3' adaptor and a 5' acceptor sequentially, and then RT-PCR amplified. PCR products were reamplified using a pair of 454 cloning primers and provided to 454 Life Sciences (Branford, CT) for sequencing.

Project description:The metabolites derived from microalgae have been attributed with various nutritional and medicinal properties. Therefore, our study aimed to investigate the potential beneficial effects of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red), a type of microalgae, in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Mice were fed on high-fat diet and injected with a low dose of streptozotocin to induce T2DM. The diabetic mice were orally treated with either 1% sodium carboxymethylcellulose or Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) at doses of 1, 2, or 3 g/kg BW/day for a duration of 4 weeks. The liver sections were subjected to hematoxylin and eosin staining as well as oil red staining for the detection of pathological changes and lipid deposition, respectively. Inflammatory factors in serum were quantified using ELISA kits, while commercial kits were employed to assess oxidative stress-related indicators. Gene expression in liver was analysed by RNA-seq. The results revealed that Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) significantly ameliorated fasting blood glucose levels, body weight, triglyceride, and low density lipoprotein cholesterin, while also enhancing oral glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. In pathological analysis, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) significantly improved lipid deposition and hepatic tissue damage. Furthermore, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) could obviously decreased the protein expression of G-6-Pase and PEPCK, and regulated the SOCS2/JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathway. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that a total of 972 significantly differentially expressed genes in diabetic mice treated with Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red). KEGG analyses revealed that lipid and atherosclerosis, MAPK signaling pathway, B cell receptor signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway were involved in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) modulated process. Therefore, the continuous consumption of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (red) may have anti-T2DM effects through the inhibition of gluconeogenesis, thus offering a promising alternative for T2DM patient.
