Project description:We applied ChIP-seq to identify genome wide binding targets of NsrR in E.coli CFT073. NsrR is a nitric oxide sensitive regulator of transcription. Genome wide binding targets of NsrR have been identified in E.coli K12 using ChIP-chip. The genome of CFT073 is about 0.6Mb larger than that of K12. In this study, we identify the novel NsrR binding sites in CFT073.
Project description:Investigation of comprehensive information about the expression level of RNA transcripts across the entire E.coli genome in mulitple growth conditions, including log-phase; stationary phase, heat shock and nitrogen-limiting condition. A fourteen chip study using total RNA recovered from four separate culture conditions of E.coli K12 MG1655. E.coli strains were harvested at mid-exponential phase with exception of stationary phase experiments. The high-density oligonucleotide tiling arrays used were consisted of 371,034 oligonucleotide probes spaced 25 bp apart (25-bp overlap between two probes) across the E. coli genome (NimbleGen). Experiments were conducted as three or more biological replicates (different cultures)
Project description:We developed AzG as a new nucleoside analog to metabolic label eukaryotic RNAs. Here, we analyzed gene expression of E.coli K12 treated with and without AzG to confirm that AzG doesn’t affect transcription at transcriptome level.
Project description:We applied ChIP-seq to identify genome wide binding targets of NsrR in E.coli CFT073. NsrR is a nitric oxide sensitive regulator of transcription. Genome wide binding targets of NsrR have been identified in E.coli K12 using ChIP-chip. The genome of CFT073 is about 0.6Mb larger than that of K12. In this study, we identify the novel NsrR binding sites in CFT073. The nsrR gene was modified by the addition of DNA sequences encoding a C-terminal 3X-Flag tag, and the tagged gene was integrated into the chromosome. NsrR bound DNA was isolated by chromatin immunoprecipitation and it was sequenced using Miseq platform.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of E.coli SE15 comparing wild type E.coli SE15 with Autoindecur 2 synthesis gene LuxS mutnat E.coli SE15. E.coli SE15 is isolated from indwelling catheter of urinary tract infected patient. Examine change of quorum sensing related gene by deleting autoinducer 2 synthesis gene LuxS in E.coli
Project description:The goal of the study is to obtain rna concentrations of E.coli under different growth conditions including growth phase carbon source and salt stresses of Mg+2 and Na+
