Project description:To find the alterations of expression profiles of shigella flexneri, we performed DNA chip analysis and proteomic analysis at the same time. an overnight culture of the wild-type strain in LB broth was harvested and resuspended in 20 ml PBS buffer and then incubated in PBS at 37 degree and in rabbit ileum for 4 hours respectively.
Project description:In this study, we analyzed the expression profiles of a virulence plasmid-cured strain and wild-type strain of shigella flexneri. The results showed that the genes of glp regulon were upregulated in mutant bacteria in stationary phase cultures. The two strains were cultured in LB broth into log-phase and stationary phase respectively. Then, the total RNAs were extracted and analyzed by Nimblegen biochips.
