Project description:Marine ammonia-oxidizing archaea are known to lack the catalase gene that functions as a scavenger at high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, nearly isolated ammonia-oxidizing archaea require the addition of a hydrogen peroxide scavenger to their culture medium, despite being aerobic. To understand the transcriptomic response to hydrogen peroxide stress, we performed RNA-Seq analysis under two different conditions: one without the addition of a hydrogen peroxide scavenger and one with the addition of a hydrogen peroxide scavenger as a control.
Project description:Comparative proteomic study of the chemolithoautotroph Ghiorsea bivora strain TAG-1. This strain was grown under two different conditions: hydrogen-oxidizing (H2 as electron donor) and iron-oxidizing (ferrous iron as electron donor). TAG-1 was grown in microaerobic conditions.
