Title | Time series RNA-seq of temperature-entrained and light-entrained bloodstream and procyclic form Trypanosoma brucei cultures |
Study Type | Transcriptome Analysis |
Abstract |
To address whether T. brucei has a circadian clock we probed its transcriptome by RNA-seq, searching for transcripts oscillating with a 24 hr period. For this we entrained/ synchronized parasites in vitro for three days using temperature and light as environmental stimuli and then collected parasite .. [more] RNA every four hours for two consecutive days. Parasite RNA was subjected to RNA-seq analysis. We performed this protocol on two stages of the T. brucei life cycle (bloodstream and insect procyclic forms). [less]
