Project description:Muconic acid production from engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum. Gene expression analysis in the pathway redesigned Corynebacterium glutamicum
Project description:Corynebacterium glutamicum GlxR is a homolog of the cAMP receptor protein. Although over 200 GlxR binding sites in the C. glutamicum genome are predicted in silico, studies on the GlxR physiological function have been hindered by the severe growth defects of a glxR mutant. This study comprehensively identified the GlxR regulon by chromatin immunoprecipitation in conjunction with microarray (ChIP-chip) analyses. In total, 209 regions were detected as in vivo GlxR binding sites. Moreover, ChIP-chip analyses showed that GlxR was still able to interact with its target sites in a deletion mutant of cyaB, the sole adenylate cyclase gene in the genome, even though binding affinity was markedly decreased.
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2460 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2460 compared to the WT.
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2699 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2699 compared to the WT.
Project description:The OsnR contains an XRE (Xenobiotics Response Element) family domain located near the C-terminus from amino acid residue 66–122. A helix-turn-helix is found in the domain.The OsnR play a negative regulatory role in redox-dependent oxidative-stress responses.This ChIP-Seq was carried out to determine unambiguously if OsnR functions as a transcription factor in Corynebacterium glutamicum.
Project description:Metabolically engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum strains were constructed for the enhanced production of L-arginine, and their gene expression profiles were investigated
Project description:In this study, disruption and overexpression of sigD were performed in Corynebacterium glutamicum and analyzed by transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) to understand the SigD regulon in C. glutamicum. For the effect of sigD overexpression, the relative abundance of mRNA was compared in WT(pVWEx1-sigD) without IPTG or with 50 M of IPTG. For the effect of sigD disruption, the abundance was compared between the sigD disrupted mutant and the wild type strain.
