Transcription profiling time series of lymph node, liver and spleen from two cattle breeds infected with Trypanosoma congolense to investigate breed differences in susceptibility

Project description:In this experiment, cattle from 2 breeds Boran and N'Dama were infected with Trypanosoma Congolense, IL1180 clone, African sleeping sickness, a disease which affects cattle in sub-saharan Africa. These breeds were chosen because they differ in their tolerance to infection, with Boran being highly susceptible, and N'Dama being more tolerant to infection. Three tissues Liver, Spleen and Lymph Node were harvested from individuals at various timepoints. Liver, Spleen and Lymph Node were collected post mortem at days 0 (naive), 21 and 35 post infection. In addition, further liver samples were collected by biopsy at days 0 (naive), 12, 15, 18, 26, 29, 32 days post infection. Each condition thus comprises: Time, Tissue, Breed. For each condition, RNA extracts from individuals were hybridised on individual arrays.<br>Infection experiment, tissue harvesting and RNA extraction were carried out at ILRI Nairobi Kenya.<br>Hybridizations were carried out at the Microarray facility, Roslin Institute, UK.<br>Data analysis was carried out at Liverpool University and Manchester University, UK.<br>

Regulation of Energy Metabolism by the Extracytoplasmic Function (ECF) σ factors of Arcobacter butzleri

Project description:The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors are fundamental for bacterial adaptation to distinct environments and for survival under different stress conditions. The emerging pathogen Arcobacter butzleri possesses seven putative pairs of σ/anti-σ factors belonging to the ECF family. Here, we report the identification of the genes regulated by five out of the seven A. butzleri ECF σ factors. Three of the ECF σ factors play an apparent role in transport, energy generation and the maintainance of redox balance. Several genes like the nap, sox and tct genes are regulated by more than one ECF σ factor indicating that the A. butzleri ECF σ factors form a network of overlapping regulons. In contrast to other eubacteria, these A. butzleri ECF regulons appear to primarily regulate responses to changing environments in order to meet metabolic needs instead of an obvious role in stress adaptation.

RNAseq of S. meliloti Rm1021 all ecf/anti-σ deletion mutants overexpressing heterologous ecf genes compared to an empty vector control strain

Project description:Bacterial σ factors are dissociable subunits of the core RNA polymerase and important for promoter recognition and transcription initiation. Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors (σs) represent the most minimalistic and diverse group of alternative σs within the σ70 protein family. It has been shown that heterologous ECF σs hold great potential as context independent regulators in a variety of bacterial species and we implemented a core set of 12 heterologous ECF σs and their cognate promoters in Sinorhizobium meliloti. To analyze if heterologous ECF σs affect transcription from the host genome, we overexpressed the ecf02_2817 gene encoding σE from E. coli and the ecf11_0987 gene from Vibrio parahaemolyticus from ~20 copy number plasmid in RFF625c, a S. meliloti Rm1021 strain deleted for all native ECF/anti-σ genes (Lang et al. 2018, DOI: 10.1128/mSphereDirect.00454-18) .We compared the RNAseq gene expression profile of these strains to an empty vector control strain.

We employed Cappable-Seq to globally determine transcription start sites (TSS) in theses strains and compared it to the TSS profile of an empty vector control strain.

A novel extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor regulates virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:Next to the two-component and quorum sensing systems, cell-surface signaling (CSS) has been recently identified as an important regulatory system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. CSS senses signals from outside the cell and transmits them into the cytoplasm. It consists of a TonB-dependent outer membrane receptor, a cytoplasmic membrane-localized sigma factor regulator (or anti-sigma factor), and an extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor. Upon perception of the extracellular signal by the receptor the ECF sigma factor is activated and promotes the transcription of a specific set of gene(s). Although most P. aeruginosa ECF sigma factors are involved in the regulation of iron uptake, we have identified a novel ECF sigma factor (PA0675) involved in the regulation of virulence. By microarray analysis of cells overexpressing PA0675 from the pMUM3 plasmid we have identified the genes regulated by this sigma factor.
