Project description:Genome-wide identification of RNA polymerase (RNAP) binding sites were performed in Klebsiella pneumoniae MGH 78578 (KP). Anti-RNAP is used to capture the RNAP in KP. ChIP-chip was performed on tiling array specifically made for KP.

ChIP-chip was performed on tiling array specifically made for KP. Comparison ChIP by anti-RNAP antibody vs ChIP by normal mouse IgG (control, mock IP)
Project description:The aim of this study is to identify the specific bacteria that are responsible for pathological bacterial translocation and subsequent Th17 priming in the liver in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). To clarify the mechanism of how microbiota interacts with the intestinal epithelial barrier, monolayered human intestinal organoids were cultured with the specific bacteria. Gene expression analysis using RNA sequencing in epithelial cells cultured with Klebsiella pneumoniae derived from a PSC patient (KP-P1) or commercially obtained Klebsiella pneumoniae strain (KP JCM1662) was performed in this study.
