Project description:Mutation of marA, rob, and soxS causes a clinical strain of E.coli to be attenuated at d3 post-infection in a mouse model of pyelonephritis, here we extract RNA at d2 post infection to analyze transcriptional differences between the two strains. In order to purify enough bacterial RNA to perform microarray, we chose a time point (day 2 post-infection) just before the triple mutant begins to decrease in bacterial load. Mouse kidneys were extracted, homogonized, and samples were pooled in RNALater (Ambion) before extraction and analysis of the transcriptomes
Project description:This project contains intact protein MS and PRM data for several central metabolic enzymes in E.coli. The enzymes are both wild-type and mutant for several

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 One array: Wild type E.coli SE15 vs. LuxS mutant E.coli SE15
Project description:Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli strains frequently cause extra-intestinal infections and are responsible for significant economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. APEC isolates are closely related to human extraintestinal pathogenic E.coli strains and may also act as pathogens for humans. In this work, three type VI secretion systems were deleted to analyze which pathogenicity characteristics would change in the mutants, compared to wild type strain (SEPT 362).
Project description:To identify the FurA regulon in Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155, we constructed a furA triple mutant with deletion of three furA paralogous genes (MSMEG_6383, MSMEG_3460, and MSMEG_6253) and profiled the transcriptomes of the wild-type and furA triple mutant strains. Differentially expressed genes were identified pair-wisely by means of the edgeR package in R language. 742 genes were differentially expressed in the furA triple mutant compared to the wild-type strain.
Project description:In this study, in order to identify miRNA targets, a degradome library derived from anthers of the WT and GMS (Genetic Male Sterility) mutant representing three stages of development was constructed and sequenced, resulting in the generation of 24.6 million raw reads. After removal of low quality sequences and adapter sequences, 24.4 million clean reads were obtained and 98% were 20 or 21 nt in length as expected in that normally length distribution peak of degradome fragment is between 20 and 21 nt [Addo-Quaye C, Eshoo TW, Bartel DP, Axtell MJ: Endogenous siRNA and miRNA targets identified by sequencing of the Arabidopsis degradome. Curr Biol 2008, 18:758-762]. Identification of miRNA targets in the WT and GMS muant anthers. Anthers of the WT and GMS mutant representing three stages of development [the meiosis stage (WT: Mar-F-1; mutant: Mar-S-1) and tetrad stage (WT: Mar-F-2; mutant: Mar-S-2), together with the uninucleate microspore stage (WT: Mar-F-3; mutant: Mar-S-3) from the GMS M-bM-^@M-^XDong AM-bM-^@M-^Y mutant and its fertile wild type] were collected during early mornings.
