Project description:Transcriptomics by RNA-seq provides unparalleled insight into bacterial gene expression networks, enabling a deeper understanding of the regulation of pathogenicity, mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance, metabolism, and other cellular processes. Here we present the transcriptome architecture of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 17978, a species emerging as a leading cause of antimicrobial resistant nosocomial infections. Differential RNA-seq (dRNA-seq) examination of model strain ATCC 17978 in 16 laboratory conditions identified 3731 transcriptional start sites (TSS), and 110 small RNAs, including the first identification of 22 sRNA encoded at the 3′ end of mRNA.
Project description:We report the trascriptomic information of wild type (Lab-WT) during the growth with or without 0.5 MIC of polymyxin B added LB (Luria-Bertani broth) media
Project description:We performed RNA sequencing analysis with differential expression analysis to compare the expression of genes between A. baumannii 17978 wildtype strain grown in the light and the dark. The purpose was to determine any genes whose expression was mediated by light at 37ºC, a temperature at which the currently best studied photoreceptor for A. baumannii BlsA, is unfunctional.
Project description:A. baumannii ATCC 17978 cells were incubated under iron replete (mueller-hinton) and iron limiting (MH + 200 µM 2,2'-dipyridyl) conditions, total RNA was extracted when cultures reached OD600=0.7.

The probes on the microarray cover all predicted open reading frames (at least 4 per ORF) and additional replicates of housekeeping genes of the A. baumannii ATCC 17978 genome
