Project description:Whole-Genome Sequences of Streptococcus alactolyticus Strain An1F4 and Escherichia coli Strains Ae3A3 and Ae3B3, Isolated from Feces of Domestic Pigs
Project description:Proteomic analysis of the chain elongating bacteria Pseudoramibacter alactolyticus and Anaerostipes caccae during lactate fermentation with supplemented acetic acetate. The impact of acetate absence on P. alactolyticus soluble proteome was also evaluated. (Principal investigator: Christopher Lawson, Toronto, ON, Canada).
Project description:Streptococcus suis is an important zoonotic pathogen that can cause meningitis and sepsis in both pigs and humans. In this study,we evaluated the genetic difference of 40 Streptococcus suis strains belonging to various sequence types by comparative genomic hybridization to identify genes associated with the variation in pathogenicity using NimbleGen’s tilling microarray platform. Application of Comparative Phylogenomics to Identify Genetic Differences Relating to Pathogenicity of Streptococcus suis
