Project description:Polyphosphate accumulating organisms are responsible for enhanced biological phosphate removal from wastewater, where they grow embedded in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances. Little is known about the composition and dynamics of those proteins and their production by the different microorganisms. Tomás-Martínez et al., (2022) studied the turnover of proteins and polysaccharides in extracellular polymeric fractions of an enrichment culture of polyphosphate accumulating organisms using an anaerobic-aerobic sequencing batch reactor simulating EBPR conditions. Finally, the carbon source was switched to 13C-labelled acetate to study the protein turnover. Samples were collected at the end of each aerobic phase.

Project description:Mar1 deletion and RNA enrichment in Cryptococcus neoformans: pilot data for a high-throughput sequencing course. The goal of this project was to generate pilot data in preparation for a summer course on high-throughput sequencing where participants prepared their own RNA-Seq libraries and analyzed the resulting data. This pilot experiment addressed two questions: 1. Does this experimental system (Cryptococcus neoformans H99 wildtype and mar1 deletion mutant grown in YPD and tissue culture media) provide a good dataset for course participants to analyze. 2. Which rRNA depletion method is best to use in the wetlab component of the course. This data was generated in preparation for the intensive summer course on high-throughput sequencing, funded by NIH grant 5R25EB023928-03 "A hands-on, integrative next-generation sequencing course: design, experiment, and analysis".
