Project description:To elucidate the mechanisms by which ammonia induced the dispersion and proliferation of A. pleuropneumoniae biofilms, NH3·H2O was added to biofilms and planktonic bacteria cultured to the log-phase for short-term stimulation and incubation. Subsequently, planktonic bacteria after ammonia stimulation (PK_NH3, the rapidly proliferating planktonic bacteria after ammonia stimulation), bacteria in the biofilm adhered layer (BF_NH3, adhered biofilm) and the supernatant layer (Up_NH3, bacteria dispersed from the BF layer ) were collected, along with the supernatant layer (Up_DspB) and adhered layer (BF_DspB) treated with DspB, and untreated control groups (PK_Con, Up_Con, BF_Con). RNA was extracted for transcriptome sequencing analysis.
Project description:To determine whether flow alters the gene expression of planktonic P. aeruginosa, we designed a long microfluidic channel that enabled us to expose bacteria to flow for significant lengths of time and then be fixed as they exit the channel. The experiments mimic the kinds of shear flows characteristic of a wide variety of confined flow configurations. Using this microfluidic system, we performed bulk RNA-Seq analysis of planktonic bacteria that flowed for 55 min at a shear rate of 20 per second, and compared gene expression of this population with a control population of planktonic bacteria under similar conditions with no flow.
Project description:Strain N16961 was incubated with crab shell in artificial seawater media for 24 hours. cDNA from 1 ug RNA was labeled with Cy3 (planktonic bacteria) and Cy5 (crab attached bacteria).
Project description:Transition of microbial growth from planktonic to biofilm is associated with programmed changes in the global patterns of gene expression. These changes are likely to faciliate the appropriate physiological and metabolic adjustments that bacteria need to make during the development of biofilms. Using microarrays we have examined the changes in pattern of gene expression associated with growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis in various stages of planktonic and biofilm cultures. Keywords: developmental time course
Project description:To reveal the transcriptional profiles of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae under biofilm and planktonic growth, we established a biofilm-forming culture method and constructed a mutant strain Δpga with defect in biofilm formation. Wild-type and Δpga mutant strains of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strain 4074 were cultured in bottles with shaking for planktonic (WT_PK) and in microplates in static status for biofilm (WT_BF, Δpga), respectively. The bacteria in logarithmic growth period of different culture groups were collected for RNA seq.
