Global identification of Hfq-bound RNA and transcriptional start site mapping in Serratia marcescens.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In order to identify mRNA and sRNAs associated with the RNA-binding protein Hfq in Serratia marcescens strain Db10, Hfq-bound RNA was immunoprecipitated from a strain encoding an Hfq-3FLAG fusion protein at the normal location and sequenced, in parallel with the wild type strain (no fusion) as negative control. Additionally global transcriptional start site mapping was performed on total RNA, with or without TEX treatment, isolated from wild type Serratia marcescens. The data was used to identify regions of mRNA and sRNAs associated with Hfq in this organism. Associated work in Serratia marcescens Db10, an opportunistic bacterial pathogen, has shown that Hfq is essential for virulence in several models and exerts a wide-ranging impact on the transcriptome and, particularly, genes encoding virulence factors.
