Project description:We study gene expression levels of V. cholerae N16961 WT and crp mutant strains/V. cholerae N16961 hapR+ corrected strain, ravAviA mutant and ravAviA overexpressing strains in exponential phase in MH, MH+maltose 0.4% and MH+glucose 0.4%
Project description:EV RNA samples from MH-S cells were prepared for small RNA sequencing by TruSeq Small RNA Sample Prep Kits (Illumina, San Diego,USA), using a minimum of 1 μg RNA per sample.
Project description:Under microscope, MH-S cells show a heterogenous population. By clonal dilution, we generated single cell colonies and found that a set of clones that secreted higher the IL-4Ra regulating protein (“High IL-4Ra activity clones”) and set of colonies secreted lower amount (“Low IL-4Ra activity clones”). We performed microarrays to detail the global gene expression analysis comparing high IL-4Ra activity and low IL-4Ra activity MH-S clones stimulated with or without LPS. At this time point, roughly 50 genes annotated as “extracellular” were significantly upregulated more than two-fold in LPS stimulated clones compared to unstimulated ones. Of these, only seven genes showed higher expression in the high IL-4Ra activity clones compared to low IL-4Ra activity clones.
