Expressed Sequence Tags from the Ciliate Protozoan Parasite Ichthyophthirius Multifiliis
<p>Researchers sequenced 10,368 expressed sequence tags (EST) clones using a normalized cDNA library made from pooled samples of the trophont, tomont, and theront life-cycle stages, and generated 9,769 sequences (94.2% success rate). Post-sequencing processing led to 8,432 high quality sequences. Clustering analysis of these ESTs allowed identification of 4,706 unique sequences containing 976 contigs and 3,730 singletons.</p> <p>The ciliate protozoan Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich) is an important parasite of freshwater fish that causes 'white spot disease' leading to significant losses. A genomic resource for large-scale studies of this parasite has been lacking. To study gene expression involved in Ich pathogenesis and virulence, our goal was to generate ESTs for the development of a powerful microarray platform for the analysis of global gene expression in this species. Here, we initiated a project to sequence and analyze over 10,000 ESTs. </p> <div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: Data Dictionary - Supplemental Tables 1, 2, and 3.</p> <p>File Name: IchthyophthiriusESTs_DataDictionary.csv</p><p>Resource Description: Machine-readable comma-separated values (CSV) definitions for data elements of Supplemental Tables 1-3 concerning *I. multifiliis* unique EST sequences, BLAST searches of the Ich ESTs against *Tetrahymena thermophila* and *Plasmodium falciparum* genomes, and gene ontology (GO) profile.</p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Table 3.
