Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The role of rpoS gene in the formation of Escherichia coli biofilms were investigated. The gene expression was compared among E. coli MG1655 wild type strain and rpoS knock-out strain in the biofilms, the planktonic exponential phase, and the planktonic stationary phase. The analysis revealed that the wild type bilfilms (WBF) showed similar pattern of gene expression with the WT planktonic stationary phase (WS), whereas the rpoS knock-out biofilms (MBF) showed similar pattern of gene expression with the wild type planktonic exponential phase (WE). Genes involved in the energy metabolism and the flagella synthesis showed higher expression in the rpoS knock-out biofilms (MBF), but not in the wild type biofilms (WBF). Moreover, genes involved in the stress responses showed higher expression in the wild type biofilms (WBF), but not in the rpoS knock-out biofilms (MBF). Keywords: cell type comparison (biofilms vs planktonic cells, wild type vs rpoS knock-out strains)

Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix E. coli antisense genome array was used to compare the gene expression among E. coli wild type and rpoS konck-out strains in the biofilms, the planktonic exponential phase, and the planktonic stationary phase. All samples were grown in MOPS minimal media with 0.2% glucose. Biofilms were grown for 72 hours on glass surface in flow cells (1x4x40 mm), and planktonic cells were grown for 8 hours (exponential phase) and 12 hours (stationary phase). Experiments were repeated 3 times, which resulted in 3 replicates of 6 different samples.

The high-density oligonucleotide tiling arrays used were consisted of 371,034 oligonucleotide. Data for wild type controls are GSM389302, GSM389303, and GSM389304.

Project description:We varied RpoS levels using a mutation or an arabinose-inducible RpoS construct during stationary phase in rich media. We then sequenced cDNA from three separate RpoS levels, corresponding to 0%, 26% and 100% of wild-type levels.
Project description:The goal of this study was to compare system level changes in gene-expression in naturally isolated alleles of stationary-phase sigma factor rpoS and two variants of it isolated during evolution under prolonged stationary-phase. We show that while rpoS819 was an attenuated form of wild type rpoS, rpoS92 partially reverses rpoS819 expression compensating rpoS819.

Project description:Gene expression changes between outside and inside of biofilms were investigated. The gene expression was compared between the outside and inside of the biofilms. At the same time, the gene expressions were also compared with exponential phase and stationary phase in planktonic cells. The gene expression analysis showed that the physiological activities were higher at the outside of the biofilms than those at the inside of the biofilms. The genes induced at the ouside of the biofilms included genes involved in the stress responses and adhesions. Keywords: different growth phase Affymetrix GeneChip E. coli Genome 2.0 Array was used to compare the gene expression among biofilms (outside and inside) and planktonic cells (exponential phase and stationary phase). All samples were grown in MOPS minimal media with 0.2% glucose at 37ºC. Biofilms were grown on glass surface in flow cells (1 x 4 x 40 mm), and samples were taken at 72 h. Planktonic cell were grown for 6 h (exponential phase) and 24 h (stationary phase). Experiments were repeated 3 times, which resulted in 3 replicates of 4 different samples.
Project description:Gene expression changes during biofilm formation processes were investigated. The gene expression was compared at attachment, colony formation and maturation during biofilm formation. At the same time, the gene expressions were also compared with exponential phase and stationary phase in planktonic cells. The gene expression pattern at attachment and colony formation processes showed similar pattern with those in planktonic exponential phase, and the gene expression pattern at maturation process showed similar pattern with those in planktonic stationary phase. During the maturation process, metabolic activities of the cells in the biofilms decreased, and the genes involved in the anaerobic respiration and efflux pumps were induced. The analysis revealed that gene expression pattern was changed and the physiological states were changed dramatically during maturation process in the biofilms. Keywords: time course
