The Susan G. Komen for the Cure® Tissue Bank at the IU Simon Cancer Center [www.komentissuebank.iu.edu] (KTB) was established expressly for the prospective collection of normal, healthy breast tissue from volunteer donors. Blood is als...
Analysis of histone acetyl transferases (HATs) from the MYST and GNAT families in S. pombe to identify functional differences or overlap with regard to gene expression. Mutations were made to Elp3 and Gcn5 (GNAT family), and to Mst2 (MYST family). Mutants showed distinct phenotypes which were repres...
Coculture Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecium were grown in open circuit (control) and closed circuit (current collecting) to observe the difference in extracellular electron transfer (EET) mechanisms. mRNA was extracted, amplified and used on Combimatrix custom arrays to obtain an expre...
Clostridium acetobutylicum was grown in open circuit (control) and closed circuit (current collecting) to observe the difference in extracellular electron transfer (EET) mechanisms. mRNA was extracted, amplified and used on Combimatrix custom arrays to obtain an expression profile. Analysis was perf...
Shewanella oneidensis and Enterococcus faecium were grown in open circuit (control) and closed circuit (current collecting) to observe the difference in extracellular electron transfer (EET) mechanisms. mRNA was extracted, amplified and used on Combimatrix custom arrays to obtain an expression profi...
Coculture Geobacter sulfurreducens and Enterococcus faecium were grown in open circuit (control) and closed circuit (current collecting) to observe the difference in extracellular electron transfer (EET) mechanisms. mRNA was extracted, amplified and used on Combimatrix custom arrays to obtain an exp...

RyhB is a non-coding RNA regulated by the Fur repressor. It has previously been shown to cause the rapid degradation of a number of mRNAs that encode proteins that utilize iron. Here we examine the effect of ectopic RyhB production on global gene expression by microarray analysis. Many of the pre...
USA300 Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for the current outbreak of skin abscesses in the United States. Unlike other USA types, USA300 colonizes the rectum at rates higher than the nose. The reason for the difference in colonization site preference may be related to specific adherence or attach...
Recent advances in genome technologies have uncovered thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) whose function in the immune system has been largely unexplored. Members of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family activate an inducible program of inflammatory genes important in host defenses. Here we p...
