C. elegans gene expression in response to Y. pestis KIM5 infection

The response of the nematode C. elegans to Y. pestis infection was evaluated by gene expression profiling. A synchronized population of nematodes were exposed to Y. pestis KIM5 for 24h. Transcript levels from Y. pestis-treated animals were compared with animals maintained on relatively nonpathogenic E. coli OP50 for 24h.本数据集通过基因表达谱分析，评估了秀丽隐杆线虫（C. elegans）对鼠疫耶尔森菌（Y. pestis）感染的应答反应。将同步化的线虫种群置于鼠疫耶尔森菌KIM5菌株环境中感染24小时，随后将经该菌株处理的线虫的转录本水平，与在相对非致病的大肠杆菌（E. coli）OP50菌株上培养24小时的线虫的转录本水平进行对比。
