Project description:Purpose: Candida albicans avidly uses multiple carbon sources that are less preferred by related species. This project compared transcriptional profiles of cells growing in media containing these nutrients relative to glucose Methods: C. albicans strain SC5314 was incubated in minimal YNB media containing 2% glucose, casamino acids, glutamate or a-ketoglutarate for five hours. RNA was prepared and subjected to deep sequencing. Results: Substantial overlap was seen in the transcriptional changes in all alternative carbon sources relative to the glucose control. Source-specific changes reflected the unique metabolism of each nutrient. Conclusions: C. albicans is well-adapted to use a range of nutrients that can be found in the mammalian host and has a common transcriptional response to limiting carbon environments.
Project description:When Clostridium cellulovorans cultured in different carbon sources respectively, with pH controlled at 7.0 in the fed-batch fermentation, the main product was butyrate. In order to understand the carbon and energy flux of Clostridium cellulovorans, comparative transcriptome in exponential phase was performed.
Project description:RNA-seq of three different Yarrowia lipolytica strains: OKYL029 (control, W29 derived), OKYL049 (high-lipid producing strain), JFYL007 (or Q4, no-lipid producing strain). The strains were grown on DELFT media containing either ammonium sulphate or urea as nitrogen sources. DELFT media had two different carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratios: a nitrogen limiting ratio of 116 and a carbon limiting ratio of 3. The experiments were performed in chemostats, with two different dilution rates of 0,06 and 0,1. Every condition was performed in quadruplicate, and triplicates were selected for RNA-seq.
Project description:Purpose: To investigate the influence of the 40 genes on plasmid, we compared the transcript varies between the engineered strains and the wild-type strain in synthetic medium with different carbon sources (i.e., glucose, galactose and ethanol/glycerol media). Methods: Total mRNA profiles of the engineered strains and the wild-type strain were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using BGIseq500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed. Results: RNA sequencing results revealed that the transcript patterns were influenced dramatically by the carbon sources and there was no significant difference between the wild-type and engineered strains (that is, any change amounted to less than 10%)
Project description:We propose a carbon source dependent genetic regulatory network for the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, derived from quantitative proteomic analyses integrated with bioinformatics knowledge of regulatory pathways and protein interactions. The proposed network, comprising 1247 transcription factor interactions and 126 chaperone interactions, defines the proteome shift in the cell when growing under different carbon sources. We used a label-free proteomics strategy to quantify alterations in protein abundance for S. cerevisiae when grown on minimal media using glucose, galactose, maltose and trehalose as sole carbon sources.
