Identification of miRNAs associated with the follicular-luteal transition in the ruminant ovary
(University of Edinburgh. Roslin Institute, 2013-03-26)Little is known about the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the follicular-luteal transition. The aim of this study was to identify genome-wide changes in miRNAs associated with follicular differentiation in sheep. miRNA ... -
The impact of acute loud noise on the behaviour of laboratory birds - data
We examined whether exposure to a routine laboratory noise, a low-frequency fire alarm test, induced behavioural changes in laboratory zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata). Twenty-four breeding pairs of zebra finches were ... -
"Increased Abundance of M cells in the Gut Epithelium Dramatically Enhances Oral Prion Disease Susceptibility"
Data supporting Donaldson et al "Increased Abundance of M cells in the Gut Epithelium Dramatically Enhances Oral Prion Disease Susceptibility" (In Submission). -
The Infectious Diseases of East African Livestock (IDEAL) Project Database - Stable Snapshot
The Infectious Diseases of East African Livestock (IDEAL) project was a longitudinal cohort study of calf health which was conducted in Western Kenya between 2007-2009. It collected information on 548 East African shorthorn ... -
Investigating early cellular and molecular responses to misfolded protein
PMDs such as AD, PD, HD and TSE are associated with the accumulation of abnormally folded proteins. However, the mechanisms involving seeding, processing and degradation of these rogue proteins are poorly understood. In ... -
lentiviral mediated apoE4 transduction in primary neuronal culture
To identify the molecular changes in signalling pathways triggered by altered apoE4 expression, we used lentiviral transduction to overexpress human apoE4 in 18-21 DIV primary hippocampal neurons. The molecular consequences ... -
Metagenome assembled rumen-uncultured genomes (RUGs)
DNA was sequenced from rumen contents from cattle, sheep, red deer and reindeer. We constructed 391 metagenome assembled rumen-uncultured genomes (RUGs). -
A mini-atlas of gene expression for the domestic goat
The goat mini-atlas dataset includes 54 mRNA-Seq (poly-A selected) 75bp paired-end libraries from 20 tissues and 2 cell types from neonatal crossbred dairy goats. Gene level expression estimates, for the goat mini-atlas, ... -
An mRNA expression atlas for the domestic chicken generated by the meta-analysis of RNA-seq datasets
The chicken (Gallus gallus) is widely used as a model in developmental biology and is also an important livestock species. We have created an mRNA expression atlas for the domestic chicken spanning major tissue types and ... -
De novo gene and transcript models created for a gene expression atlas of the domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)
The domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) makes a major contribution to the global agricultural economy in the form of milk, meat, hides and draught power. The global water buffalo population is predominantly found in ... -
Open prediction of polysaccharide utilisation loci (PUL) in 5414 public Bacteroidetes genomes using PULpy
Polysaccharide utilisation loci (PUL) are regions within the genomes of Bacteroidetes that encode all the necessary machinery for the cleavage of particular carbohydrates. Prediction of PUL from genomic data alone involves ... -
Patchy promiscuity: machine learning applied to predict the host specificity of Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli
Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli are bacterial species that colonise different animal hosts with sub-types that can cause life-threatening infections in humans. Source attribution of zoonoses is an important goal ... -

Proteomic profiling of primate synapses during normal healthy ageing
Normal mammalian brain ageing is characterised by the selective loss of discrete populations of dendritic spines and synapses, particularly affecting neuroanatomical regions such as the hippocampus. Although previous ... -
A putative genomic map for resistance of Bos indicus cattle in Cameroon to bovine tuberculosis
Bovine Tuberculosis (bTB) caused by Mycobacterium bovis is a livestock disease of global economic and public health importance. There are currently no effective vaccines available for livestock and so control relies on ... -
Raptors. Images of miscellaneous internal parasites (other than nematodes).
This dataset was compiled during wild bird disease surveillance in Scotland between 1994 and 2013, and contains images of miscellaneous internal parasites (other than nematodes) in raptors. A searchable list of images is ... -
Raptors. Images of nematodes (syngamid worms, spirurid worms, hairworms and roundworms).
This dataset was compiled during wild bird disease surveillance in Scotland between 1994 and 2013, and contains images of nematodes (syngamid worms, spirurid worms, hairworms and roundworms), their eggs and associated ...
