Project description:Background: Microorganisms are the major cause of food spoilage during storage, processing and distribution. Pseudomonas fluorescens is a typical spoilage bacterium that contributes to a large extent to the spoilage process of proteinaceous food. RpoS is considered an important global regulator involved in stress survival and virulence in many pathogens. Our previous work revealed that RpoS contributed to the spoilage activities of P. fluorescens by regulating resistance to different stress conditions, extracellular acylated homoserine lactone (AHL) levels, extracellular protease and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) production. However, RpoS-dependent genes in P. fluorescens remained undefined. Results: RNA-seq transcriptomics analysis combined with quantitative proteomics analysis basing on multiplexed isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling was performed for the P. fluorescens wild-type strain UK4 and its derivative carrying a rpoS mutation. A total of 375 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 212 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in these two backgrounds. The DGEs were further verified by qRT-PCR tests, and the genes directly regulated by RpoS were confirmed by 5’-RACE-PCR sequencing. The combining transcriptome and proteome analysis revealed a role of this regulator in several cellular processes, including polysaccharide metabolism, intracellular secretion and extracellular structures, cell well biogenesis, stress responses, ammonia and biogenic amine production, which may contribute to biofilm formation, stress resistance and spoilage activities of P. fluorescens. Moreover, in this work we indeed observed that RpoS contributed to the production of the macrocolony biofilm’s matrix.

Project description:In this study we have employed RNA seq on ten different tissues including four brain tissues from two boars to gain a understanding of the differential variations in transcriptional profiles for these tissues consisting of occipital cortex, frontal cortex, hypothalamus and cerebellum along with such diverse tissues as heart, spleen, liver, kidney, lung and musculus longissimus dorsi. This has enabled us to perform comparative gene expression analysis of brain regions versus non-brain tissues along with inter-brain tissue comparisons. Hence, we have tested for differentially expressed genes and isoforms, differential splicing, transcription start sites (TSS), and differential promoter usage between all ten porcine tissues.

Project description:The two subunits of IL-35, EBI3 and P35, were fused together and transfected into Panc-1 cell via lentivirus. The sequence of the fused gene is identical to that of a commercial IL-35-overexpessed plasmid (InvivoGEN, pORF9-hIL35elasti). An empty vector was used as the control. The two cell lines were subjected to a genome-wide RNA sequencing.

Project description:In a previous study, we found that H2S alleviates salinity stress in cucumber by maintaining the Na+/K+ balance and by regulating H2S metabolism and the oxidative stress response. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms behind H2S-regulated salt-stress tolerance in cucumber. Here, an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis based on RNA-seq and 2-DE was used to investigate the global mechanism underlying H2S-regulated salt-stress tolerance. In total, 11 761 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 61 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified. Analysis of the pathways associated with the DEGs showed that salt stress enriched expression of genes in primary and energy metabolism, such as photosynthesis, carbon metabolism and biosynthesis of amino acids. Application of H2S significantly decreased these DEGs but enriched DEGs related to plant-pathogen interaction, sulfur-containing metabolism, cell defense and signal transduction pathways. Notably, changes related to sulfur-containing metabolism and cell defense were also observed through proteome analysis, such as Cysteine synthase 1, Glutathione S-transferase U25-like, Protein disulfide-isomerase and Peroxidase 2. We present the first global analysis of the mechanism underlying H2S regulation of salt-stress tolerance in cucumber through tracking changes in the expression of specific proteins and genes.

Project description:Introduction: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is highly prevalent among U.S. service members and veterans (SMV) and has lasting impacts on health and well-being. However, the biological underpinnings of PTSD remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to discover novel candidate proteins and protein pathways associated with PTSD using unbiased, high-throughput proteomics profiling. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a subset of SMV participants from a clinical cohort undergoing evaluations at the National Intrepid Center of Excellence, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, who consented to a research blood draw and use of their clinical data in research. The cohort with available blood samples was classified into PTSD-Present and PTSD-Absent groups based on the PTSD Checklist- Civilian Version. Olink high-throughput proteomic profiling examined 5400 human plasma proteins, and differentially expressed proteins were examined. Ingenuity pathway analysis was used to identify proteomic pathways among the significant differentially expressed proteins between the PTSD-Present and PTSD-Absent groups. Results: We included 208 samples in our analysis, 126 with and 82 without PTSD. We identified 366 proteins that were significantly differentially expressed between groups, with the 3 most significant being LMOD2 (Leiomodin- 2), ATP5F1D (ATP synthase δ-subunit), and CASKIN1 (CASK-interacting protein). Extracellular matrix organization pathways and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) signaling were downregulated in PTSD, suggesting possible vascular inflammation and remodeling. Data- driven protein networks suggest reduced immune cell activation. Discussion: Determining differential protein expression and identifying the associated protein pathways linked to PTSD may provide new insights into the biological basis of chronic PTSD symptoms and help identify novel candidate protein biomarkers of PTSD and PTSD symptoms for validation in separate and larger cohorts. From this discovery cohort, we report that elevated PTSD symptoms may be associated with downregulation of extracellular matrix organization, inflammation signaling, and vascular remodeling pathways. Future research is necessary to validate this novel group of biomarkers and pathways.

Project description:Falster is a Danish perennial ryegrass ecotype with strong vernalization requirement, while Veyo is an Italian variety with no requirement for vernalization in order to flower. The transcriptome of these two perennial ryegrass genotypes with contrasting vernalization requirements was studied during primary (vernalization and short day conditions), and secondary induction (higher temperature and long day conditions) using an RNA-Seq approach, in order to reveal transcripts with expression profiles indicative of a role in floral induction, both in the promotion and repression of flowering.

Project description:Xanthan gum, a natural heteropolysaccharide produced by Xanthomonas species, has many biotechnological applications across industries due to its unique rheological properties. Expanding its utility requires specific enzymes capable of targeted xanthan modification or degradation. In this study, a novel bacterial strain, isolated from a spoiled xanthan sample and identified as Paenibacillus taichungensis I5, was shown to degrade xanthan using a plate screening assay with Congo red. Enzyme activity tests of the culture supernatant demonstrated the secretion of xanthan-degrading enzymes. Genome and proteome analyses suggests a chromosomal xanthan utilization locus encoding a suite of enzymes, including a xanthanase (Pt_XanGH9), two xanthan lyases (Pt_XanPL8a and Pt_XanPL8b), two unsaturated glucuronidases, two α-mannosidases, as well as transport and regulator proteins. Functional characterization through recombinant protein expression and enzyme assays confirmed the functions of Pt_XanGH9, Pt_XanPL8a and Pt_XanPL8b on native xanthan and xanthan-derived oligosaccharides. The polysaccharide degradation products released by these enzymes were identified via LC-MS analysis. The two xanthan lyases differed in cleavage specificity. In contrast to Pt_XanPL8a, Pt_XanPL8b is synthesized with an N-terminal signal peptide, yet both lyases were detected in cell-free supernatant during growth on xanthan. Based on the composition of the xanthan utilization gene cluster and preliminary enzyme characteristics, a working model for xanthan utilization by P. taichungensis I5 is proposed. Reaching a better understanding of bacterial xanthan derivatives and xanthan degrading pathways and the enzymes involved may help to develop modified xanthan derivatives and xanthan degrading enzymes that align with the specific demands of various industrial process.
