Project description:We designed a group of probes for detection of known and some putative E. coli sRNAs and included them in a commercial microarray containing a standard set of probes developed by Agilent Technologies for hybridization with E. coli transcripts. To assess the potential of the re-designed microarray to detect E. coli sRNAs, RNA profiling experiments were performed with total RNA extracted from E. coli MG1655 cells in log phase, grown in rich (Luria-Bertani) and minimall (M9/Glucose) media. The microarray data obtained indicate that many sRNAs could yield reasonably strong signals (i.e. considerably above the background). With few exceptions (such as SraA, IstR-1, OmrA, RseX and DicF), nearly all known trans-encoded sRNAs annotated in several databases including EcoCyc, RNAMap and BSRD were detected. The expression patterns of some transcripts were further validated by Northern blot analysis.

Project description:AraC is an Escherichia coli transcription factor that regulates genes in response to the presence/absence of arabinose. We used transcription profiling to determine RNA levels in Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655 and MG1655 delta araC grown either in the absence or the presence of arabinose. Thus, we identified known and novel AraC-regulated genes. Data presented here are raw .CEL files as well as fully analysed data using GeneSpring

Project description:Ecotoxicogenomic studies face the problem of the lack of gene sequence information available for toxicologically relevant non-model pollution sentinel species. In this sense, next generation sequencing technologies allow obtaining deep de novo sequence information cost-effectively. We have thus employed the platform GS-FLX of Roche technologies, in order to sequence the multitissue transcriptome of a fish species under severe population decline, the European eel (Anguilla anguilla), using normalized cDNA (Evrogen). The European eel could be successfully employed in pollution biomonitoring studies as it is a euryhaline teleost that is quite resistant to chemical exposure. We have completed a one whole plate sequencing-run using the Titanium kit of Roche from which a total of 7.8x105 reads were obtained with a length average of 303.53 bp. Annotated genes, for instance, could be further assessed as biomarkers of exposure to specific chemical compounds in marine, estuarine and river waters. Designed tool will be thus useful, in the study of: a.- the mode of action of chemical compounds in active monitoring studies using caged eels, b.- the physiological processes that are specific to freshwater eels such as the one of sexual development and reproduction, c.- reasons that could explain the disappearance of the species from European waters. In the first context, a caging experiment was performed to measure the putative effects of a paper industry effluent on eel hepatic transcription levels. For this purpose, eels were caged upstream and downstream to the SMURFFIT-KAPPA paper industry in Iurreta (Biscay, Basque Country). Thus, hepatic transcription profiles reflect the stress levels suffered by eels. The experiment contains a time serial sampling: T0 = before sampling; T1 = after 3 days of exposure; T2=after 15 days of exposure. In addition, caged eels were placed in 2 sites, Upstream (Up) and Downstream (Do) of the hotspot. 6 samples were dissected per sampling group (5 groups= ToUP; T1UP; T1Do; T2Up; T2Do), 30 samples in total

Project description:Dietary immunostimulants are considered as an effective tool for enhancing the immune status of cultured organisms and improving their general welfare. Immunostimulants are chemical substances which activate transiently elements of the immune response and may potentially render animals more resistant to infectious diseases. They also reduce the risk of disease outbreaks, if administrated prior to situations known to result in stress and impaired general performance (e.g. handling, change of temperature and environment, weaning to inert diets) or prior to expected increase in exposure to pathogenic microorganisms and parasites. In this study, we have evaluated the effect of dietary LPS derived from Pantoea agglomerans (LPSp, SOMACY SL100, MACROPHI Inc., Japan) in Anguilla anguilla elvers considering the general condition, growth and immune status of the animals. Elvers (1.7 ± 0.2 g) obtained from local fishermen (Delta del Ebro, Spain) were fed at different doses of c (0, 20 and 40 μg LPSp kg BW-1 day-1) for a period of 70 days (4 replicates per dietary group). LPSp was added to the diet (52% protein, 24% fat, 9% ash) by top coating the pellets with the lyophilized powder of LPSp dissolved in 2% fish oil (diets manufactured by ALLERQUA, Denmark). The trial was conducted in 100 L tanks (40 L functional volume) connected to a recirculation unit (IRTAmar®) and water quality was as follows: temperature, 21 ± 0.5 ºC; pH, 7.5 ± 0.1; photoperiod, 12 L:12 D and oxygen at saturation levels. At the end of the trial, fish were measured for growth (BW), size dispersion, histological organization of the intestinal mucosa and the transcriptomic responses of the spleen were evaluated by means of a 60K (15000 gene signatures) custom oligonucleotide microarray (Agilent Technologies Inc.). No significant differences in BW nor survival were observed among groups regardless of the dose of LPSp (BW: 3.9 ± 0.3 g, survival: 98-99%). Micorarray analysis (LIMMA F<0.05; adj. p value < 0.005) resulted in 81 significantly up-regulated genes and only 3 down-regulated genes, in the highest LPSp dose. The lowest dose of LPSp up-regulated 26 genes and down-regulated 50. Both doses resulted in regulation of immune related genes, such as, sensors for detection of viral and bacterial products, innate antiviral response genes, cytokines, adipocytokines, and their regulatory nuclear factors. The pathway enrichment analysis (FatiGO; p < 0.005) of up-regulated genes (40 μg LPSp kg BW-1 day-1) indicated among the most significantly regulated KEGG pathways: cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, Jak-STAT signalling, natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity, Toll-like, RIG-I-like and NOD-like receptor signalling and Wnt, Notch and mTOR signalling. In conclusion, LPSp diet highly regulates spleen transcription levels, mainly enhancing the immune response capacity of the immunostimulated elvers. This study was funded by the CENIT-ACUISOST project (CDTI, Spain), IRTA, Basque Government (S-PC08UN03; IT810-13) And UPV/EHU (UFI 11/37).

Project description:To study the regulatory outcome of Hfq-mediated sRNA-target interactions, we measured the change in gene expression following overexpression of each of five well-established sRNAs: GcvB, MicA, ArcZ, RyhB and CyaR. For each of the studied sRNAs we applied RNA-seq to two E. coli K-12 MG1655 strains: (1) a WT strain or a strain deleted of the sRNA gene; (2) a strain overexpressing the sRNA, either artificially from a plasmid or from the endogenous sRNA gene by changing the growth condition. For GcvB induction, the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 gcvB::Cm, pZA12-gcvB and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 gcvB::Cm, pTP-011 strains were used. For MicA overexpression the E. coli K-12 MG1655lacIq pBRplac, pEF21-Hfq and the E. coli K-12 MG1655lacIq pMicA, pEF21-Hfq strains were used. For ArcZ induction the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 arcZ::Cm, pZE12-ArcZ and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 arcZ::Cm, pJV300 strains were used. For RyhB overexpression the E. coli K-12 MG1655 ryhB::Cm and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 were used. For CyaR induction the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 cyaR::Cm, pZE12-CyaR and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 cyaR::Cm, pJV300 strains were used. All E. coli strains used in this study were grown overnight in Luria Bertani (LB) medium at 37 °C with shaking (200 r.p.m.), diluted 100-fold in fresh LB medium, and re-grown with shaking at 37 °C to exponential phase, for GcvB (OD600 = 0.3) and for RyhB (OD600 = 0.5), or to stationary phase, for ArcZ WT, ArcZ M1, ArcZ M2 and CyaR (OD600 = 1.0) and for MicA (grown for 6 hr). For induction of ArcZ and GcvB, IPTG was added (1mM, 20 min). MicA was constitutively expressed and further induced at the end of growth with IPTG (1mM, 20 min). For induction of RyhB, the iron chelator 2,2'-Dipyridyl was added (200 μM, 30 min).

Project description:Background: Members of E. coli serogroup O45 are porcine enteropathogenic E. coli (PEPEC) strains which cause post-weaning diarrhea and produce characteristic attaching and effacing (A/E) lesions. Most of O45 PEPEC strains possess the locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE), encoding the virulence factors for A/E lesions, and often possess the paa gene, which is thought to contribute to the early stages of PEPEC virulence. Methodology: Nine O45 PEPEC strains and a rabbit enteropathogenic (REPEC) strain, known to produce A/E lesions, were characterized using an E. coli O157-E. coli K12 whole genome microarray and a virulence gene-specific microarray, and by PCR experiments. Results: Based on their virulence genes profiles, the 10 strains were characterized as atypical EPEC. The differences in their genomes pointed to two distinct evolutionary groups of O45 PEPEC, Group I and Group II, and to the contribution these genetic differences have on virulence in pigs. Group I contained the REPEC strain and four O45 PEPEC strains known to induce severe A/E lesions in challenged pigs whereas Group II was composed of five other O45 PEPEC strains which induced less severe or no A/E lesions in challenged pigs. Significant differences between Groups I and II were found in the presence or absence of 50 O-Islands (OIs) or S-loops and 13 K-islands (KIs) or K-loops, including the virulence-associated islands OI#1 (S-loop#1), OI#47 (S-loop#71), OI#57 (S-loop#85), OI#71 (S-loop#108), OI#115, OI#122, and OI#154 (S-loop#253). 10 samples, with two microarrays per sample. Each microarray includes duplicates of every spot.
