Project description:We isolated an efficient doxycycline degrading strain Chryseobacterium sp. WX1. To investigate gene expression patterns during doxycyclinedegradation by strain WX1, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using cultures of strain WX1 with and without doxycycline addition. The RNA-Seq data revealed that 90.44-96.56% of the reads mapped to the genome of Chryseobacterium sp. WX1 across all samples. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis (|log2FC| >2; p < 0.01) showed that 693 genes were significantly up-regulated and 592 genes were significantly down-regulated.
Project description:In this study, we isolated a potent doxycycline-degrading bacterium, Chryseobacterium sp. WX1, from environmental samples. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying doxycycline degradation by strain WX1, we assessed and interpreted the proteomic profiles of Chryseobacterium sp. WX1 under conditions both with and without doxycycline exposure.
Project description:The widespread appearance of diclofenac as an emerging contaminant in the environment and its potential impact on living organisms is a matter of concern. Our current work uses proteomics and metabolomics to gain a better understanding of diclofenac biodegradation by the bacterial strain Raoultella sp. KDF8.
Project description:Members of the genus Acinetobacter drag attention due to their importance in microbial pathology and biotechnology. OmpA is a porin with multifaceted functions in different species of Acinetobacter. In this study we identified this protein in Acinetobacter sp. SA01, an efficient phenol degrader strain, in different cellular and sub-cellular compartments (such as OM, OMV, biofilm and extracellular environment). Differential expression of proteins, including OmpA, under two conditions of phenol and ethanol supplementation was assessed using shotgun proteomics.
