Project description:Antibiotic resistance associated with the expression of the clinically significant carbapenemases, IMP, KPC, and NDM and OXA-48 in Enterobacteriaceae is emerging as a worldwide calamity to health care. In Australia, IMP-producing Enterobacteriaceae is the most prevalent carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). Genomic characteristics of such carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are well described, but the corresponding proteome is poorly characterised. We have thus developed a method to analyse dynamic changes in the proteome of CPE under antibiotic pressure. Specifically, we have investigated the effect of meropenem at sub-lethal concentrations to develop a better understanding of how antibiotic pressure leads to resistance. Escherichia coli, producing either NDM, IMP or KPC type carbapenemase were included in this study, and their proteomes were analysed in growth conditions with or without meropenem.
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:We exposed wild-type Vibrio cholerae E7496, multiple Vibrio cholerae virulence factor deleted genes with intact hemolysin A gene [CVD109] and without hemolysin A gene [CVD110] in E7946, and E.coli OP50 to wild-type C.elegans N2 for 18 hours. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression and identified distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes during this process. C. elegans were exposed to Vibrio cholerae and E.coli then hybridization on Affymetrix microarray chips.
Project description:We used RNA-seq to determine transcriptional profiles of whole guts or IPCs isolated from guts infected with wild type or type VI secretion system deficient Vibrio cholerae. We found significant differences between guts and progenitor cells infected wild type or type VI secretion system deficient Vibrio cholerae.
Project description:Mustard and Kenny mutants are resistant to oral infection with V.cholerae. We used microarrays to determine whether Key and Mtd have overlapping regulons. Key1 and Mtd mutant and CTL flies were given access to Vibrio cholerae in LB. After 24 hours, whole flies were homogenized and RNA was isolated.

Project description:In presence of high concentrations of L-arabinose, Vibrio cholerae enters into a non-proliferative state. In V. cholerae, when L-arabinose in present into the media, it is incorporated and metabolized through the galactose pathway. In the present datasets we show that in presence of L-arabinose, transposon insertions in the galactose pathway confer a resistance to the detrimental effect of L-arabinose.
