Microbial and Functional Diversity within the Phyllosphere of Espeletia sp. in Andean High Mountain Ecosystems

ABSTRACT: Functional profiles predicted based on taxonomic affiliations differed from those obtained by GeoChip microarray analysis, which separated community functional capacity based on plant location. The identified metabolic pathways provided insight regarding microbial strategies for colonization and survival in these ecosystems. Sixteen samples analyzed.

MR-1 nitrate sample to fumarate sample

Project description:One of the most striking observations in the S. oneidensis genome regarding nitrate respiration is that napC is missing and nrfBCD is degenerated. To gain insights into candidate genes encoding the protein(s) in place of NapC and NrfBCD function, i.e., delivering electrons to NapA and NrfA, transcriptional profiling was carried out using the S. oneidensis whole-genome cDNA microarray. Cells of MR-1 grown on nitrate or fumarate under anaerobic conditions were sampled at the exponential phase for the analysis. The quality of the array data was statistically assessed using the method reported previously. Keywords: Compararive microarray study Compare transcriptional profiles of MR-1 grown on nitrate and Fumarate aiming at finding the electron transfer proteins to NapA and NrfA.

Discovery of novel hypermethylated gene loci in prostate cancer using genome wide coverage CpG island microarrays

Project description:In order to identify methylation changes in prostate cancer, we performed a genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation using Agilent human CpG island arrays. We then chose specific genes to validate methylation both in the same cases as were hybridized to the array (using quantitative EpiTYPER analysis) and in an independent series of prostate cancer samples (using MethyLight quantitative methylation specific PCR). We specifically chose low grade (Gleason score 6 cases) and high grade (Gleason score 8 cases) to discover methylated genes/loci that may be involved in the progression to a higher grade of prostate cancer. We collected 20 specimens consisting of 10 Gleason 6 and 10 Gleason 8 prostate cancers, and compared these to a reference lymphocyte pool (6 age matched, healthy men) to determine cancer associated methylation changes as well as disease progression associated methylation changes. We performed the differential methylation hybridization procedure as described by Yan et al. (Methods, 2002) on each case to enrich for methylated DNA. Each specimen in the reference pool underwent the same enrichment with amplicons being pooled at the end of the procedure. Each prostate cancer case was subsequently co-hybridized to the microarray with the reference pool.

Towards functional profiling for eDNA based monitoring in coastal environments: a comparison of three approaches

Project description:Monitoring microbial communities can aid in understanding the state of these habitats. Environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques provide efficient and comprehensive monitoring by capturing broader diversity. Besides structural profiling, eDNA methods allow the study of functional profiles, encompassing the genes within the microbial community. In this study, three methodologies were compared for functional profiling of microbial communities in estuarine and coastal sites in the Bay of Biscay. The methodologies included inference from 16S metabarcoding data using Tax4Fun, GeoChip microarrays, and shotgun metagenomics.

P6 Mouse Sertoli Cell Small RNA seq

Project description:This study annotates the NGS reads in a Sertoli cell sncRNA library. In addition to known sncRNAs, we also identified numerous novel sncRNAs expressed by Sertoli cells. Our data suggest that the Sertoli cell sncRNA transcriptome predominantly consists of miRNAs, piRNA-like RNAs, tRNAs and snoRNAs. This study reports the first comprehensive annotation of the Sertoli cell sncRNA transcriptome. Sertoli cells were purified from post-natal day 6 C57Bl/6 mice using the STAPUT unit gravity sedimentation apparatus. Small RNA was isolated from cells and a cDNA library was generated for 454 sequencing. Sequences from FastA files were initially mapped to known sequences and the genome and subsequently annotated upon novel small RNA categorization.

Microbial community structure and functions are resilient to metal pollution along two forest soil gradients

Project description:Despite the global importance of forests, it is virtually unknown how their soil microbial communities adapt at the phylogenetic and functional level to long term metal pollution. Studying twelve sites located along two distinct gradients of metal pollution in Southern Poland revealed that both community composition (via MiSeq Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes) and functional gene potential (using GeoChip 4.2) were highly similar across the gradients despite drastically diverging metal contamination levels. Metal pollution level significantly impacted microbial community structure (p = 0.037), but not bacterial taxon richness. Metal pollution altered the relative abundance of specific bacterial taxa, including Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes and Proteobacteria. Also, a group of metal resistance genes showed significant correlations with metal concentrations in soil, although no clear impact of metal pollution levels on overall functional diversity and structure of microbial communities was observed. While screens of phylogenetic marker genes, such as 16S rRNA, provided only limited insight into resilience mechanisms, analysis of specific functional genes, e.g. involved in metal resistance, appeared to be a more promising strategy. This study showed that the effect of metal pollution on soil microbial communities was not straightforward, but could be filtered out from natural variation and habitat factors by multivariate statistical analysis and spatial sampling involving separate pollution gradients. 12 samples were collected from two long-term polluted areas (Olkusz and Miasteczko M-EM-^ZlM-DM-^Eskie) in Southern Poland. In the study presented here, a consecutively operated, well-defined cohort of 50 NSCLC cases, followed up more than five years, was used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 8,644 unique genes, leading to the successful construction of supervised
