Project description:Rice (Oryza sativa L.) seeds can germinate in complete absence of oxygen. Under anoxia, the rice coleoptile elongates, reaching a length greater than that of the aerobic one. In this series, we compare the transcriptome of rice coleoptiles grown under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Lasanthi-Kudahettige, R, et. al. Plant Physiology (2007).

Project description:Chemoautotrophic bacteria from the SUP05 clade often dominate anoxic waters in marine oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) where reduced sulfur can fuel carbon fixation and denitrification. Some members of the SUP05 clade are facultative aerobes that thrive at the boundaries of OMZs where they experience fluctuations in dissolved oxygen (DO). The degree to which SUP05 contribute to nitrate reduction in these regions depends on their sensitivity to oxygen. We evaluated growth and quantified differences in gene expression in Ca. T. autotrophicus strain EF1 from the SUP05 clade under high DO (22 μM), anoxic, and low DO (3.8 μM) concentrations. We show that strain EF1 cells respire oxygen and nitrate and that cells have higher growth rates, express more genes, and fix more carbon when oxygen becomes available for aerobic respiration. Evidence that facultatively aerobic SUP05 are more active and respire nitrate when oxygen becomes available at low concentrations suggests that they are an important source of nitrite across marine OMZ boundary layers.

Project description:Salmonella enterica var. Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a Gram-negative, facultative intracellular pathogen that infects the intestinal tracts of humans and animals. In the host, S. Typhimurium encounters a wide range of oxygen concentrations going from oxic conditions in the stomach to near anoxic conditions in the distal sigmoid colon-rectal junction. In Escherichia coli, FNR (Fumarate Nitrate Reductase) is one of the main regulatory proteins involved in oxygen sensing and in controlling the transcription of the genes required for the aerobic/anaerobic transition.. However, the role of FNR in S. Typhimurium is largely unknown. To assess its role in S. Typhimurium, we constructed an FNR- mutant (NC983) in the pathogenic wild-type (WT) strain, ATCC14028s. The WT and the fnr- mutant strains were grown under anaerobic conditions in a Coy Anaerobic Chamber. Total RNAs were isolated when the cultures reached an OD600 of 0.3 (mid-log). Microarray slides were used to compare the global expression patterns of the two strains (i.e., 14028s vs. NC983). On each slides there were three replicas of the Salmonella genome and we swapped dyes, thus having a total of six replicates for each gene.
