Project description:Proteomic analysis of elementary bodies of the amoeba symbiont Protochlamydia amoebophila UWE25 by 2D-LC shotgun proteomics (SCX and nano-RP-LC-MS/MS)
Project description:The skin commensal yeast Malassezia is associated with several skin disorders. To establish a reference resource, we sought to determine the complete genome sequence of Malassezia sympodialis and identify its protein-coding genes. A novel genome annotation workflow combining RNA sequencing, proteomics, and manual curation was developed to determine gene structures with high accuracy.
Project description:In this study, we carried out genome-scale CRISPRi modulation combining fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify genetic determinants for FFAs overproduction in Escherichia coli. The pcnBi (AP) strain that repressed the expression of pcnB produced 2992 mg l FFAs, which was 4.0-fold of the CF (A) strain. To analyze the underlying mechanism of FFAs overproduction, the engineered strain pcnBi and the control strain CF were applied to the transcriptomic and proteomic analyses.
