Project description:The transcriptome of Escherichia coli K-12 has been widely studied over a variety of conditions for the past decade while such studies involving E. coli O157:H7, its pathogenic cousin, are just now being conducted. To better understand the impact of rumen fluid on E. coli O157:H7, global transcript levels of strain EDL933 cells resuspended in heat clarified rumen fluid for 15 min were compared to cells resuspended in fresh LB using microarrays. Seven independent RNA samples from rumen fluid treated cultures were paired with seven independent RNA samples from control cultures for hybridization to seven two-color microarrays. For three arrays, the control RNA sample was labeled with Cy3 dye and the experimental RNA sample was labeled with Cy5 dye, the dyes were reversed for the other four arrays to overcome dye bias.
Project description:Here, we used reverse-phase liquid chromatography-coupled tandem mass spectrometry to study the pre-weaned lamb proteome and metaproteome in ten different gastrointestinal tracts: rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, colon, and rectum.

Project description:Saccharina latissima is a brown alga commonly found in the North Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific oceans. Alginate constitutes a substantial portion of the cell wall of S. latissima, and its digestion requires a specific set of enzymes, alginate lyases. We investigated if and how S. latissima is metabolized in geographically distinct rumen ecosystems through in vivo lamb feeding experiments (2.5 and 5% inclusion, DM basis) and in vitro cattle-based rumen simulation technique, RUSITEC, experiments (up to 50% inclusion). Evidence supporting ruminal degradation of alginate was explored using a combination of 16S rRNA sequencing, metagenomics and metaproteomics, physiology (fluorescently labelled S. latissima hot water extracts (FLA-SLAT)) and biochemical characterization of PL6 alginate lyases.
