Project description:RNA-seq of Mycobacteriophage Island3 infection of Mycolicibacterium smegmatis mc2155, Mycolicibacterium smegmatis mc2155(Butters), and Mycolicibacterium smegmatis mc2155(Buttersgp57r) to assess the impact of Butters lysogen and specifically Buttersgp57r on transcript levels of island3 during infection.
Project description:We identified a novel transcription factor, MsoA, in response to oxidative stress in Mycolicibacterium smegmatis. We hope to discover the regulatory network and target genes of transcription factor msoA by transcriptome sequencing of wild-type and msoA mutants, so as to help us further elucidate the molecular mechanism of msoA involved in regulation of Mycolicibacterium oxidation.
Project description:Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of an anthracene-degrading bacterium, Mycolicibacterium frederiksbergense strain LB501T, using the PacBio and Illumina sequencing platforms. The complete genome sequence of strain LB501T consists of 6,713,618 bp and provides new insights into its metabolic capabilities, including aromatic conversion pathways with promiscuous activities.
