Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC17978 cells comparing treated ethanol cells with oleanolic acid treated. Based on the gene expression, we performed experiments to confirm the therapeutic effect and mechanism of OA in A. baumannii.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC17978 cells comparing treated ethanol cells with oleanolic acid treated. Based on the gene expression, we performed experiments to confirm the therapeutic effect and mechanism of OA in A. baumannii. We performed a transcriptome anaylsis of 2 samples that are OA and ethanol treatment, respectively.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC17978 cells comparing each treated 1/2MIC Cm, 1/2MIC HBA and combination of 1/4MIC Cm and HBA cells with same volume of ethanol treated. Based on the gene expression, we analyzed results to confirm the relation between Cm and HBA to antibacterial synergism against A. baumannii. (Concentrations treated respectivly in all samples were adjusted to add same volume of Cm, HBA and combination)
Project description:Using Nanopore sequencing, our study has revealed a close correlation between genomic methylation levels and antibiotic resistance rates in Acinetobacter Baumannii. Specifically, the combined genome-wide DNA methylome and transcriptome analysis revealed the first epigenetic-based antibiotic-resistance mechanism in A. baumannii. Our findings suggest that the precise location of methylation sites along the chromosome could provide new diagnostic markers and drug targets to improve the management of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii infections.
Project description:Two Acinetobacter baumannii strains with low susceptibility to fosmidomycin and two reference with high susceptibility to fosmidomycin were DNA-sequenced to investigate the genomic determinants of fosmidomycin resistance.
