Project description:RNA sequencing was used to explore the expression of all genes in Streptococcus pneumoniae under heat stress. The pneumococcal strain 2/2 was grown in broth culture under control (37°C) and high temperature (40°C) conditions. 2/2 culture samples were taken at sequential time points and RNA was extracted and sequenced. Overall design: Streptococcus pneumoniae isolate 2/2 was cultured in seven 10 ml tubes of brain-heart infusion broth and incubated at 40°C + 5% CO2 for 6 h to mimic heat shock. The experimental control was the same isolate 2/2, also cultured in seven 10 ml tubes of brain-heart infusion broth but incubated at standard conditions of 37°C + 5% CO2. Broth cultures at five time points (2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 h of incubation) were removed and 19 ml of RNAprotect Bacteria Reagent (Qiagen) was added to stabilise the RNA. RNA was extracted from the samples using the Promega Maxwell® 16 Instrument and LEV simplyRNA Cells purification kit, following the manufacturer’s protocol. Extracted RNA samples were sent to the Oxford Genomics Centre for processing. Library preps were made using RNA-Seq Ribozero kits (Illumina, Inc) and sequencing was performed on the MiSeq (Illumina, Inc). The sequenced forward and reverse reads were paired and mapped to the S. pneumoniae strain 2/2 genome using Bowtie2 with the highest sensitivity option. Differential gene expression was analysed in Geneious version 9.1 (Biomatters Ltd) using the DESeq method. Genes with an adjusted p value <0.05 were considered to be differentially expressed.

Project description:Galactose promotes pneumococcal biofilms in vivo 15 mRNA profiles of Streptococcus pneumoniae samples that were grown under different conditions were generated using deep sequencing.
Project description:Three Microarray comparisons have been preformed in this study. 1- Transcriptome comparison of the Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 wild type grown in M17 medium + 0.5 % (w/v) NAGa (NAGaM17) to M17 medium + 0.5 % (w/v) glucose (GM17) (GSM2372597 and GSM2372598). 2- Transcriptome comparison of the Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 ΔagaR to D39 wild type grown in M17 medium + 0.5 % (w/v) glucose (GM17) (GSM2372599 and GSM2372600). 3- Transcriptome comparison of the Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 ΔccpA to D39 wild type grown in M17 medium + 0.5 % (w/v) NAGa (NAGaM17) (GSM2290636 and GSM2290637). Overall design: - Two conditions design comparison of one strain including a dye swap or Microarray comparisons 1. - One condition design comparision of two strains including a dye swap for Microarray comparisons 2 and 3.
