Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional Regulation of Biomass-degrading Enzymes in the Filamentous Fungus Trichoderma reesei
Pamela K. Foreman,Doug Brown,Doug Brown,Lydia Dankmeyer,Ralph A. Dean,Ralph A. Dean,Stephen E. Diener,Stephen E. Diener,Nigel Dunn-Coleman,Frits Goedegebuur,Thomas D. Houfek,Thomas D. Houfek,George England,Aaron Kelley,Hendrik J. Meerman,Thomas K. Mitchell,Thomas K. Mitchell,Colin Mitchinson,Heather A. Olivares,Pauline Johanna Maria Teunissen,Jian Yao,Michael Ward +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors partially sequenced over 5100 random T. reesei cDNA clones and found that most of the genes encoding known and putative biomass-degrading enzymes were transcriptionally co-regulated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence and genetic map of Meloidogyne hapla: A compact nematode genome for plant parasitism
Charles H. Opperman,David McK. Bird,Valerie M. Williamson,Daniel S. Rokhsar,Mark Burke,Jonathan A. Cohn,John Cromer,Steve Diener,Jim Gajan,Steve Graham,Thomas D. Houfek,Qingli L. Liu,Therese Mitros,Jennifer E. Schaff,Reenah Schaffer,Elizabeth H. Scholl,Bryon Sosinski,Varghese P. Thomas,Eric Windham +18 more
TL;DR: Meloidogyne hapla is established as a tractable model plant-parasitic nematode amenable to forward and reverse genetics, and a complete genome sequence is presented that defines a platform to elucidate mechanisms of parasitism by what is the largest uncontrolled group of plant pathogens worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI
MagnaportheDB: a federated solution for integrating physical and genetic map data with BAC end derived sequences for the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea
Stanton L. Martin,Barbara P. Blackmon,Ravi Rajagopalan,Thomas D. Houfek,Robert G. Sceeles,Sheila O. Denn,Thomas K. Mitchell,Douglas E Brown,Rod A. Wing,Ralph A. Dean +9 more
TL;DR: A federated database for genome studies of Magnaporthe grisea, the causal agent of rice blast disease, is created by integrating end sequence data from BAC clones, genetic marker data and BAC contig assembly data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the protein processing and secretion pathways in a comprehensive set of expressed sequence tags from Trichoderma reesei
Stephen E. Diener,Nigel Dunn-Coleman,Pamela K. Foreman,Thomas D. Houfek,Pauline Johanna Maria Teunissen,P. van Solingen,Lydia Dankmeyer,Thomas K. Mitchell,Michael South San Francisco Ward,Ralph A. Dean +9 more
TL;DR: In an attempt to identify genes involved in protein folding and ornamentation steps in Trichoderma reesei, the 5' ends of 21888 cDNA clones were sequenced from which a unique set of over 5000 were also 3' sequenced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alkahest NuclearBLAST : a user-friendly BLAST management and analysis system.
Stephen E. Diener,Thomas D. Houfek,Sam E Kalat,DE Windham,Mark Burke,Charles H. Opperman,Ralph A. Dean +6 more
TL;DR: NuclearBLAST is a wrapper for NCBI BLAST which provides a user-friendly web interface which includes a request wizard and the ability to view and mine BLAST results, which makes the management and data-mining of large sets of BLAST analyses tractable to biologists.
