Genomic and Proteomic Characterization of Sessile and Planktonic Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168

ABSTRACT: In order to understand the cellular mechanisms that facilitate a surface-associated lifestyle, expression profiles were determined at the levels of transcription and translation for sessile and planktonic Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 (obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC 700819)). These investigations indicate that the immobilized bacteria undergo a shift in cellular priorities away from metabolic, motility and protein synthesis capabilities towards emphasis on iron uptake, oxidative stress defense and membrane transport. Growth in broth was achieved by transferring stock culture to MH broth in tissue culture flasks and incubated microaerobically. Growth on agar was achieved by transferring stock culture onto MH agar plates, spreading the culture to produce a lawn, and i
