Project description:Expression profile of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv biofilm as induced by DTT (Reduced) 6mM DTT reduced at 6 mM concentration was added to log phase culture of Mtb H37Rv. After 29 hours RNA was isolated and hybridization was done on microarrays
Project description:To expand an insight into the stress adaptation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (Mtb), we approached the iTRAQ analysis to understand the global proteome profile of stressed Mtb under Acid (5.5 pH), Diamide (5mM) and Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (5mM) conditions and compared with gene expression of Mtb incubated in 7H9 rich medium (pH 7.0). The experiment was performed for overnight treatment of aforementioned stress. Whole cell lysate (WCL) from three independent repeats of control and stressed samples were labelled with three set of 4-plex iTRAQ labelling reagents (AB SCIEX) in proportion to manufacturer’s protocol.
Project description:During lung infection Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) resides in macrophages and subverts the bactericidal mechanisms of these professional phagocytes. In this work we have analyzed by DNA microarray technique the global transcription profile of Mtb infecting primary human macrophages in order to identify putative bacterial pathogenic factors that can be relevant for the intracellular survival of Mtb. Keywords: time course We compared the global gene expression of the H37Rv strain of Mtb after 4 hours and 24 hours of infection of human macrophage-like THP-1 cells with the gene expression profile of the strain growing exponentially in broth cultures.
Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), which resulted millions of deaths worldwide every year. Although the type strain M. tuberculosis H37Rv was sequenced in 1998, annotation errors of encoding genes have emerged in an endless stream. The annotation errors are particularly severe in the N-terminal and start sites of the genes. In this study, we applied a dimethylation labeling combined with negative enrichment strategy on M. tuberculosis H37Rv to characterize the N-terminal start sites of its annotated encoding genes. Totally, 18,285 peptides and 1,641 N-terminal peptides were identified from all the 2,728 database annotated proteins. The negative N-terminal enrichment strategy allowed the re-annotation of 12 genes’ N-terminal and identification of 6 novel genes in H37Rv. The comparative genomics approach could provide possible help for the re-annotation of 403 mis-annotated genes from Mycobacteriaceae. In addition, we verified the novel gene Rv3409, which was identified with 3 high-confident peptides, with the synthetic peptides and the expression of recombinant protein Rv3409. Altogether, our study and findings contributed to a better understanding of the N-terminal annotation of H37Rv, which will contribute to further biological studies of other species of Mycobacteriaceae in the future.
Project description:Global protein alteration in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37 RV ( Mtb-H37RV) having depletion of Clpx ,Clp2 and ClpC1 were accessed using 4 plex iTRAQ label.
Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is a species of pathogenic bacteria and the causative agent of tuberculosis. The type strain H37Rv has been sequenced in 1998, while many previous studies found its predicted genes exhibit frequent errors, particularly in start codons. Here, we applied a TMPP [(N-Succinimidyloxycarbonylmethyl) tris (2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl) phosphonium bromide] labeling combined with StageTip separating strategy to characterize the N-terminal peptides. We identified 2,598 annotated proteins, which 1,078 proteins were labeled by TMPP.
Project description:The global protein expression of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, responding to VC treatment (5 mM for 24 h), was monitored via tandem mass tag (TMT)-based quantitative proteomic analysis.
