Project description:We used RNA-seq to profile E. coli K-12 MG1655 strains subjected to adaptive laboratory evolution after knockout of endogenous glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (pgi) and subsequent expression of heterologous version of the pgi gene from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus megaterium.
Project description:We have performed adaptive laboratory evolution of E. coli pdhR gene deletion strain to examine the adaptive strategies of E. coli.
Project description:We used RNA-seq to profile E. coli K-12 MG1655 strains subjected to adaptive laboratory evolution after chorismate synthase knockouts. Either isochorismate synthase (menF) or isochorismate synthase AND chorismate lyase (ubiC) was deleted from a strain of E. coli K-12 MG1655 that had already been previously adapted for growth on glucose minimal media. RNA-seq profiles of the original glucose-adapted strain, the 2 deletion strains, and 4 laboratory-evolved strains from each deletion are included in duplicate. ubiC catalyzes the first committed step of ubiquinone synthesis, an important molecule for the electron transport chain. Thus, these experiments allowed assessment of cellular adaptations to restore energy metabolism capability.
Project description:We carried out adaptive laboratory evolution of an E. coli strain lacking four genes (adhE, pta, ldhA, frdA) involved in acetyl-CoA consumption, allowing the efficient utilization of acetate as its sole carbon and energy source. The transcriptomes according to the medium status (M9 aceate, M9 glucose) of the evolved strain (SBA01) and its parent strain (DSM01) were compared using RNA-seq.
Project description:To understand the mechanism of isopropanol tolerance of Escherichia coli for improvement of isopropanol production, we performed genome re-sequencing and transcriptome analysis of isopropanol tolerant E. coli strains obtained from parallel adaptive laboratory evolution under IPA stress.
Project description:Although fluorine is abundant in the earth’s crust, it is scarcely found in biomolecules. Adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) experiments were conducted to introduce organofluorine into living microorganisms. By cultivating Escherichia coli with fluorinated indole analogs, microbial cells evolved that relinquished their dependence on indole and are instead capable of utilizing either 6-fluoroindole (6Fi) or 7-fluoroindole (7Fi) for growth (TrpS-catalyzed in-situ conversion of fluoroindole into fluorotryptophan (FTrp) and TrpRS-catalyzed incorporation of FTrp in context of protein biosynthesis). Consistent and complete adaptation of microbial populations was achieved and the quantitative proteome-wide replacement of Trp by either 6FTrp or 7FTrp was confirmed by nano-LC-MSMS. The dataset comprises the ancestral strain TUB00, two positive controls W-TUB165 and Ind-TUB165 (adapted to grow on tryptophan and indole), three 6Fi adapted lineages 6TUB128-OC, 6TUB165-MB4, 6TUB165-MB3 and two 7Fi adapted lineages 7TUB165-OC and 7TUB165-MB.
