Project description:The goals of this study are to use Next-generation sequencing (NGS)to detect bacterial mRNA profiles of original E. coli K-12 MG1655 and fluoxetine induced E. coli mutants in response to 100 mg/L fluoxetine for 8 h, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2500.The NGS QC toolkit (version 2.3.3) was used to treat the raw sequence reads to trim the 3’-end residual adaptors and primers, and the ambiguous characters in the reads were removed. Then, the sequence reads consisting of at least 85% bases were progressively trimmed at the 3’-ends until a quality value ≥ 20 were kept. Downstream analyses were performed using the generated clean reads of no shorter than 75 bp. The clean reads of each sample were aligned to the E. coli reference genome (NC_000913) using SeqAlto (version 0.5). Cufflinks (version 2.2.1) was used to calculate the strand-specific coverage for each gene, and to analyze the differential expression in triplicate bacterial cell cultures. The statistical analyses and visualization were conducted using CummeRbund package in R (http://compbio.mit.edu/cummeRbund/). Gene expression was calculated as fragments per kilobase of a gene per million mapped reads (FPKM, a normalized value generated from the frequency of detection and the length of a given gene.

Chromosomal DNA was extracted using the Sigma GenElute bacterial genomic DNA kit. 5 μg of DNA were used to generate a genomic library according to Illumina's protocol. The libraries and the sequencing were performed by the High-throughput Sequencing facility of the I2BC (http://www.i2bc.paris-saclay.fr/spip.php?article399&lang=en, CNRS, Gif-sur-Yvette, France). Genomic DNA libraries were made with the ‘Nextera DNA library preparation kit’ (Illumina) following the manufacturer’s recommendations. Library quality was assessed on an Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100, using an Agilent High Sensitivity DNA Kit (Agilent technologies). Libraries were pooled in equimolar proportions. 75 bp single reads were generated on an Illumina MiSeq instrument, using a MiSeq Reagent kit V2 (500 cycles) (Illumina), with an expected depth of 217X. An in-lab written MATLAB-based script was used to perform marker frequency analysis. Reads were aligned on the Escherichia coli K12 MG1655 genome using BWA software. Data were normalized by dividing uniquely mapping sequence reads by the total number of reads. Enrichment of uniquely mapping sequence reads in 1 kb non-overlapping windows were calculated and plotted against the chromosomal coordinates.
Project description:The goals of this study are to use Next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect bacterial mRNA profiles of wild-type E. coli K-12 MG1655 and its mutants, and their mRNA response under the exposure of five antidepressants, including sertraline, duloxetine, bupropion, escitalopram and agomelatine. The concentrations were 50 mg/L for the treatment. For sertraline, in addition to 50 mg/L, 1 mg/L was also applied. The group without dosing antidepressants was the control group. Each concentration was conducted in triplicate.
