Project description:The goal of this study is to explore genes that are differentially expressed in E. coli C strains (wt and a butanol-tolerant mutant) after 1-butanol treatment. The butanol-tolerant mutant strain PKH5000 (denoted by 'E' for 'evolved') were derived from KCTC 2571 (wt) (denoted by 'A' for 'ancestral') by proton beam irradiation. 0 and 1 in sample title mean before and after butanol treatment, respectively.

Project description:n-Butanol has been proposed as an alternative biofuel to ethanol, and both Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been engineered to produce it. Unfortunately, n-butanol is more toxic than ethanol to these organisms. To understand the basis for its toxicity, cell wide studies were conducted at the transcript, protein and metabolite levels to obtain a global view of the n-butanol stress response. Analysis of the data indicate that n-butanol stress has components common to other stress responses and includes perturbation in respiratory functions (nuo, cyo operons), oxidative stress (sodC, katG, yqhD), heat shock and cell envelope stress (rpoE, clpB, htpG, degP, cpxPR), metabolite transport (malE, opp operon) and biosynthesis. Inducible expression of the yqhD gene was found to improve the host’s tolerance to exogenous n-butanol and confirms the role of this gene in coping with butanol stress. To survey for other potential candidates that may serve to improve host tolerance, mutant strains in several candidates which show changes at the transcript and protein levels were examined for sensitivity during butanol exposure. Chassis engineering based on these cues may be required in a high production titer, butanol-producing host.

This comparison is between E. coli DH1 cells treated with 0.8% n-butanol and untreated cells at 0, 30, 80, and 195 minutes after addition. 3 biological replicates were grown, total RNA was extracted, labeled, and hybridized on 3 slides for each time point. http://www.microbesonline.org/cgi-bin/microarray/viewExp.cgi?expId=1266

Project description:Butanol is a bulk chemical feedstock and a promising fuels. Microbial production of butanol is challenging primarily because of its toxicity and low titer of production. Transcript regulator factor Rob plays an important role in butanol-tolerant functional revealed by our previous study. In this study, the mutant strain DTrob (AT686-687 deletion in rob gene) could tolerate 1.25 %(v/v) butanol. And the per unit intracellular butanol concentration and transcriptome of wild-type and DTrob were further compared to understand the regulation mechanism of Rob for butanol tolerance. A total of 285 DEGs (differentially expression genes) were identified by bioinformatic analysis, and they may function in transport and localization according to the GO functional annotations and the functional annotation of gene product in NCBI database. Eighteen DEGs representing different functional categories were selected for real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) for confirming the dependability of RNA-seq data. The deletion strains of glgS or yibT gene, which were down-regulated by Rob, had butanol-toleranct characteristic, indicating that the deletion or downregulated expression of the two genes down-regulated by Rob could improve the butanol tolerance. This study reveals the transcript regulator factor Rob could regulate and control the expression of the butanol tolerant genes, and its inactivation would result in an improved butanol tolerance.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of isolated mutants using the method Visualizing Evolution in Real-Time (VERT) for the study of n-butanol tolerance. The samples were isolated from an evolution experiment picking samples at different times based in the evolution dynamics obtained with VERT. Mutants were grown in chemostats at 0.8% (v/v) of n-butanol and compared with the expression of wild-type to the same concentration of solvent.

All microarray experiments were carried out in triplicate (rep1-3). Probes were spotted in duplicate on separate area of each microarray slide, which produces two GPR files (a and b suffixes).

Mutants were grown in chemostats at 0.8% (v/v) of n-butanol and compared with the expression of wild-type to the same concentration of solvent. Three biological replicas. Each sample represents an isolated mutant. The reference for each mutant corresponds to wild-type, both exposed to the same concentration of n-butanol (0.8% (v/v)).

Project description:The presence of anti-microbial phenolic compounds, such as the model compound ferulic acid, in biomass hydrolysates poses significant challenges to the widespread use of biomass in conjunction with whole cell biocatalysis or fermentation. Biofuel toxicity must also be overcome to allow for efficient production of next generation biofuels such as butanol, isopropanol, and others for widespread usage. Currently, these inhibitory compounds must be removed through additional downstream processing or sufficiently diluted to create environments suitable for most industrially important microbial strains. This study explores the high ferulic acid and n-butanol tolerance in Lactobacillus brevis (L. brevis), a lactic acid bacteria often found in fermentation processes, by global transcriptional response analysis. The transcriptional profile of L. brevis under ferulic acid and butanol stress reveals that the presence of ferulic acid primarily triggers the expression of membrane proteins to counteract ferulic acid induced changes in membrane fluidity and ion leakage. In contrast to the ferulic acid stress response, butanol addition to growing cultures uniquely induced the entire fatty acid synthesis pathway in the midst of a generalized stress response. Overexpression of the rate-limiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase subunits (AccABCD) in E. coli to increase lipid synthesis had no effect on butanol tolerance, suggesting that additional engineering is necessary to produce sufficient levels of appropriate fatty acids to confer butanol tolerance. Several promising routes for understanding both phenolic acid and butanol tolerance have been identified based upon these findings. These insights may be used to guide further engineering of model industrial organisms to better tolerate both classes of inhibitors in processed biomass used for biofuel production.

Cultures were grown to OD ~ 0.2 in MRS media (baffled flasks), T = 30 C, 100 rpm. Butanol was then added to the cultures. Samples were harvested 15, 75, and 135 min after butanol addition. Each time point has 3 biological replicates, and dye swaps were incorporated into the microarray experiments.
