Transcriptome profiling of Mesoplasma florum strain L1 using RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and genome-wide 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (5'-RACE)


ABSTRACT: Mesoplasma florum is a near-minimal bacterium belonging to the Mollicutes class particularly characterized by its small genome, fast growth rate, and lack of pathogenic potential. Here, we report the first genome-wide transcriptomic analysis of this microorganism using directional RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (5'-RACE). 5'-RACE sequencing reads were used to identify 605 putative transcription start sites (TSSs), of which more than 400 could be associated to a conserved promoter sequence. Along with terminator predictions, these TSSs allowed the reconstruction of M. florum transcription units, covering more than 90% of annotated genes. We evaluated the expression level of all M. florum protein coding genes using paired-end RNA-Seq reads according to the number of fragments per kilobase per million of mapped reads (FPKM). FPKM values were converted to absolute transcript abundances using biomass quantification data. These efforts aim at reaching a deep understanding of global cellular mechanisms in M. florum and will guide future genome engineering projects in this simple organism.
