Project description:Purpose: Panax vietnamensis Ha et Grushv., which contains various valuable ginsenosides, is an important herbal medicine of Vietnam. However, it is an endangered species listed in Vietnam Red Data Book due to over-harvseting. Investigation about genomic or trancriptomic resources is one of the necessary activities to conserve P. vietnamensis Materials and Methods:. In this study, we sequenced the transcriptomes of 1-year-old P. vietnamensis from leaves and roots using Illumina NovaSeqTM6000 system. Results: A total of 60,254,062 and 64,588,528 reads was obtained and then assembled into 45,495 and 49,133 unigenes for leaves and roots, respectively. More than 60% unigenes from two organs were functional annotated using at least one database among Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, Pfam, Gene Ontology, NCBI non-redundant Protein, and Evolutionary genealogy of genes. Further, the predominant transcripts of each cDNA library were analyzed for different gene expression identification. In addition, 457 unigenes encoding enzymes involved in triterpenoid saponin biosynthesis via the mavelonate (MVA) and the non-MVA (also named as MEP pathways) were discovered.
Project description:RNA-seq analysis of Pseudomonas sp OST1909 exposed to various preparations of naphthenic acids samples led to the identiifcation of many NA-induced genes.
Project description:The whole proteome analysis of the Pseudomonas sp. FIP_A4 strain in presence and absence of fipronil was conducted to evaluate the differentially expressed enzymes that can play role in fipronil degradation.
Project description:The pyrite mine of Lousal, Grândola, Portugal, was discovered in 1882 and extensively exploited from 1900 until its closure in 1988 when the mining ores were not viable economically. Aiming at becoming a cultural-touristic center, the mining area was rehabilitated raising a Mining Museum and a Science Centre along with the reopening of a mining gallery for public access. In recent times, aerobiological studies on subterranean environments such as caves, mines and archeological necropolis revealed to be an important source of novel bacteria, from which their biotechnological potential are under study. Here we present a Pseudomonas sp. isolated from the mine air with potential secondary metabolite biosynthesis, resistance to antibiotics and virulence factors.
