Project description:Here, we compared gene expression level by RNA-Seq analysis among a wild-type (WT) Deinococcus geothermalis strain, a dgeo_2840 of LysR family member gene (Δdgeo_2840), a putative Dps dgeo_0257 (Δdgeo_0257), and a cystine importer dgeo_1986-1987 gene disrupted strain (Δdgeo_1986-1987). From this transcriptomic data, we detected dgeo_2840, dgeo_0257, and dgeo_1986-1987 controlling genes which were somehow up-regulated and/or down-regulated. In particular, Deinococcus geothermalis has a total of 73 insertion sequences (ISs) in genomes, and some of them are actively transposed to other loci with replicative mode by the oxidative stress of hydrogen peroxide treatment.
Project description:By comparing the gene expression profiling in Anoxybacillus sp. SK 3-4 with and without aluminum exposure, the sets of gene up-regulated and down-regulated by aluminum were identified. The function of genes or proteins induced under these conditions can a reflection of the mechanism of resistance. Transcriptome profiling of Anoxybacillus sp. SK 3-4 treated by aluminum would allow a better understanding of the gene involving in tolerance and removal of aluminum.
