Toxoplasma uses metal nutrients like iron and copper for vital functions in their energy metabolism. Here, we have used stable isotope labelling to track the incorporation of glucose and glutamine into metabolic pathways, primarily focusing on central carbon metabolism, when these metals are disr...
This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30413: High low copper GSE30414: copY Mutant compared to D39 wild-type Refer to individual Series
A 3 x 2 factorial design was used to elucidate the genome-wide transcriptional response to the deletion of yeast ortholog of Wilson and Menkes disease causing gene; CCC2, at changing copper levels. Homozygous deletion mutant of CCC2, which encodes Cu+2 transporting P-type ATPase required to export c...
Copper and iron are essential micronutrients for most living organisms because they participate as cofactors in biological processes including respiration, photosynthesis and oxidative stress protection. In many eukaryotic organisms, including yeast and mammals, copper and iron homeostases are highl...
The transition metal copper (Cu) is an essential element for all living organisms. In plants, Cu plays key roles in electron transport chains of chloroplasts and mitochondria, as well as in cell wall metabolism, ethylene perception, molybdenum cofactor synthesis and oxidative stress protection. Beca...
Marine cyanobacteria are thought to be the most sensitive of the phytoplankton groups to copper toxicity, yet little is known of the transcriptional response of marine Synechococcus to copper shock. Global transcriptional response to two levels of copper shock was assayed in both a coastal and an o...
Copper is essential for both innate and adaptive immune function and copper resistance has emerged as an important determinant of virulence of microbial pathogens. In the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn), cytoplasmic copper resistance is mediated by an operon encoding the copper-respons...
Anthropogenic pollution has increased the levels of heavy metals in the environment. Bacterial populations continue to thrive in highly polluted environments and bacteria must have mechanisms to counter heavy metal stress. We chose to examine the response of the environmentally-relevant organism P...
