Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 ?fnr mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. The mutations engineered into this strain produce a strain lacking the FNR protein. WT strains were grown under aerobic and anaerobic growth conditions.
Project description:Escherichia coli laboratory strains remain instrumental to the discovery and development of biomarkers as drugs and diagnostic analytes in the post genomic era. The transcriptional regulator SlyA is a member of the multiple antibiotic resistance regulator family of transcription factors, which is associated with bacterial responses to host-derived oxidative stress, antibiotics resistance and virulence, and homologues exist in other Enterobacteriaceae. Here, we announce a transcriptome RNA sequencing data set detailing global gene expression in the wild type E. coli BW25113 and the slyA mutant. Results reveal heterogeneous functionality of SlyA that may vary between pathovars of E. coli. but which require further annotations of differentially expressed tRNAs
Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in colon is associated with psychiatric disorders.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 ?fnr mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. The mutations engineered into this strain produce a strain lacking the FNR protein. WT strains were grown under aerobic and anaerobic growth conditions. A six chip study using total RNA recovered from two separate cultures of Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 WT (aerobic and anaerobic) and two separate cultures of the ?fnr mutant strain (anaerobic). Each chip measures the expression level of 4,661 genes from Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 with eight 60-mer probes per gene, with each probe represented twice on the array.
Project description:Purpose: We use the gene expression data to estimate the effects of tetracycline on gene expression and average ribosome density. Methods: The mRNAs were extracted with TRIzol reagent. The mRNAs were fragmented into 280 bp and the sequencing process was conducted on HiSeq 2500 platform. We use cutadapt, bowtie2, Plastid and DEseq2 software to analyze the expression levels of genes in two Escherichia coli strains. Results: The gene expression in EF4 knockout Escherichia coli strain was similar with BW25113 strain under normal condition. Under tetracycline treatment, many genes' expression were differentially regulated. Interestingly, we found that the gene expression of ribosomal proteins was up-regulated in WT strain comparing with EF4 knockout E. coli strain. Conclusions: Our results suggest that EF4 affects the average ribosome density and global gene expression in two Escherichia coli strain under tetracycline treatment.
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare gene expression data for a well known model organism (Escherichia coli) using different technologies (NGS here, microarray from GSE48776). mRNA profiles of Wild Type and two Mutant Strains (ydcR (b1439) MUTANT and yjiR (b4340) MUTANT), growth in minimal medium, were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina MiSeq.
Project description:Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.
