Project description:This project contributes to the proteomic comparison of Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 wild-type strain without its pBClin15 plasmid, its mutant strain devoided of the methionine sulfoxide reductase AB (msrAB) protein and the corresponding msrAB complemented strain, all strains grown in aerobiosis condition and harvested at three growth stages.

Project description:We have studied the transcriptome of S. aureus SH1000 strain, isogenic Teg49 mutant strain, and isogenic plasmid complemented strain
Project description:Transcriptome comparison of Bacillus subtilis Natto under sliding permissive (0.7% agar) and restrictive (1.5% agar or spo0A mutant strain) conditions.
Project description:Bacillus velezensis strain GH1-13 with a native conjugative plasmid (pBV71) is thought to be beneficial to the bacterium, although no information on its effects exists. Here we show that strain GH1-13 frequently lost the plasmid during normal growth conditions in a rich medium and changed the morphology and sensitivity to selenite and tellurite. Compared to the plasmid-cured cells, the wild-type and complemented cells exhibited multicellular behavior with the expression of conjugative type IV pili and regulatory Rap homologous genes that regulate the interconnection between conjugation and biofilm formation. Further omics-based analyses of morphogenesis, biofilm formation, and antibiotic synthesis suggest that the conjugative plasmid activates envelope stress responses in association with increased biosynthesis of extracellular polysaccharide and antibiotics for protective functions of the host during exponential phase.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in sporulating Bacillus subtilis 168 delta-prpE mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. The mutation engineered into this strain results in impaired germination of spores.
Project description:PdeL is a transcription regulator and c-di-GMP specific phosphodiesterase in Escherichia coli. To address the transcription regulator function of PdeL we analyzed the transcriptomes of four E. coli K12 strains during the exponential growth phase by RNA-sequencing. These four strains included (1) wild-type E. coli K12 strain BW30270 carrying an empty vector control plasmid, (2) an isogenic pdeL deletion mutant carrying the control plasmid, as well as the pdeL mutant that was complemented with (3) a plasmid carrying pdeL under control of the IPTG-inducible tac promoter or (4) a plasmid encoding a fusion protein of the PdeL’s DNA-binding domain and the C-terminal dimerization domain of phage Lambda cI repressor (PdeL-DBD_cI-C). Expression of plasmid-encoded pdeL and pdeL-DBD_cI-C, respectively, was induced by addition of IPTG for 15 minutes prior to RNA isolation. Analyses of the RNA-seq data revealed that plasmid-provided PdeL (and PdeL-DBD_cI-C) repress transcription of class II flagellar genes and presumably regulate the transcription of additional loci, while only little differences were observed between the transcriptomes of wild-type strain BW30270 and its isogenic pdeL mutant.
Project description:Bacillus subtilis is exposed to a wide range of transitory stress and starvation conditions. Here we investigate the expression changes observed in the B. subtilis wild type strain 168 and its isogenic sigB mutant(BSM29) with respect to each stress condition tested.
Project description:This project provides tandem mass spectrometry datasets of Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 wild-type strain without its pBClin15 plasmid and devoided of the methionine sulfoxide reductase A (msrA) gene. The single mutant strain was grown under fermentative anaerobic condition and harvested at three growth stages.
