Project description:Transcriptomic data has been previously used to determine expression patterns in various R. capsulatus strains using custom made Affymetrix microarrays. Additional expression analyses have since been carried out to obtain preliminary data on certain wild type and mutant strains that have not been reported on. We used all current microarray expression data available and constructed an R. capsulatus gene co-expression network and performed functional analysis of identified gene modules. RNA was harvested from various wild type and mutant R. capsulatus strains grown under photoheterotrophic conditions to different growth phases. The samples were hybridized to custom made R. capsulatus Affymetrix microarrays according to manufacturers recommendations. The raw data was RMA normalized and log transformed.
Project description:The samples in this series were used to analyze the transcriptome of the CtrA regulon using wild type (SB1003) and ctrA mutant (SBRM1) strains of Rhodobacter capsulatus. As well, the transcriptome of growth phase regulation in R. capsulatus SB1003 between log and stationary phases was determined.
Project description:Global transcriptome analyses at growth before and after 10 min of photooxidative stress were applied to monitor stress dependent gene expression in the alpha-proteobacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus. Transcriptome profiles of pigmented cultures with high aeration were monitored before and after the onset of singlet oxygen stress.
