ABSTRACT: Salmonella 14028 time course on swarming agar (0.6%) plates mRNA from 3 h time point on swarming plates used as reference for all the time course arrays
Project description:All the other array data are here, including plate culture versus broth culture, swarming agar culture versus hard agar culture, wildtype versus mutants other than che, and so on
Project description:Salmonella strain 14028, time course, on non-swarming agar plates (1.5%), array were done between reference mRNA (from swarmer cells at 3 hour) and mRNA from various time points on non-swarming plates.
Project description:Salmonella wild type strain 14028 compared with chemotaxis mutants, cheA, cheB, cheY, and cheZ at various time points both in broth medium and on swarming plates
Project description:Salmonella strain 14028, time course in broth medium, array were done between mRNA from various time point in broth and reference mRNA, which is from swarmer cells at 3 hour on swarming plates Keywords: other
Project description:Transcriptional profiles of dehydrated Salmonella Typhimurium SL1344 cells post 22h air drying were compared to those of SL1344 cells incubated for 22 h in DDW Two-condition experiment, dehydrated versus hydrated (control) Salmonella cells. Biological replicates: 4 control, 4 dehydrated, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:We have exploited a spontaneously isolated mutant IgaA(T191P) that is near-maximally activated for the Rcs system, to identify a vast set of genes that respond, and report new regulatory properties of this signaling system in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Microarray data show that the Rcs system normally functions as a positive regulator of SPI-2 and other genes important for growth of Salmonella in macrophages, although when highly activated, the system completely represses the SPI-1/SPI-2 virulence, flagellar, and fimbrial biogenesis pathways. The auxilliary protein RcsA, which works with RcsB to positively regulate colanic acid and other target genes, not only stimulates but also antagonizes the positive regulation of many genes in the igaA mutant. We show that RcsB represses motility through the 'RcsB box' in the promoter region of the master operon flhDC, and that RcsA is not required for this regulation. Curiously, RcsB selectively stimulates expression of the flagellar Type 3 secretion genes fliPQR; an RcsAB box located downstream of fliR influences this regulation. We show that excess colanic acid impairs swimming and inhibits swarming motility, consistent with the inverse regulation of the two pathways by the Rcs system. The work was published in Journal of Bacteriology: Wang Q, Zhao Y, McClelland M, Harshey RM.

J Bacteriol. 2007 Sep 28; [Epub ahead of print] PMID: 17905992 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization Microarray was used to reveal the gene expression profiles in igaA(T191P) and related strains at two growth stages (log and stationary phases). Quantitative RT-PCR was used for detail studies.
Project description:We compared RNA samples extracted from spinal cords of control (C) and AT-EAE (E) mice using the "Multiple Yellow" strategy. 4 distinct C-extracts were hybridized with two slides and 4 distinct E-extracts with other two slides, and the green/red normalized signals were compared separately and the E/C ratios averaged.
