Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Vibrio cholerae O395N1 delta-nqrA-F mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. Total RNA recovered from wild-type cultures of VIbrio cholerae O395N1 and its nqrA-F mutant strain. Each chip measures the expression level of 3,835 genes from Vibrio cholerae O1 biovar eltor str. N16961 with twenty average probes/gene, with five-fold technical redundancy.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of an El Tor biotype crp mutant The virulent V. cholerae El Tor Ogawa strain C7258 (Peru isolate 1991) and an isogenic deletion mutant (WL7258) lacking DNA sequences encoding the cAMP receptor protein were grown in LB medium to optical density at 600 nm of 1.5. The cultures were chilled in ice, cells quickly collected by centrifugation and total RNA imediately extracted. RNAwas extracted and purified using the Trizol plus RNA purification system (Invitrogen) followed RNEasy miniElute cleanup (Qiagen). RNA samples were conserved at - 80 C and used within a week. Keywords: Genetic modification
