Project description:Abstract: Vibrio cholerae, the etiological agent of the diarrheal illness cholera, can kill an infected adult in 24 h. V.cholerae lives as an autochthonous microbe in estuaries, rivers and coastal waters. A better understanding of its metabolic pathways will assist the development of more effective treatments and will provide a deeper understanding of how this bacterium persists in natural aquatic habitats. Using the completed V.cholerae genome sequence and PathoLogic software, we created VchoCyc, a pathway-genome database that predicted 171 likely metabolic pathways in the bacterium. We report here experimental evidence supporting the computationally predicted pathways. The evidence comes from microarray gene expression studies of V.cholerae in the stools of three cholera patients [D. S. Merrell, S. M. Butler, F. Qadri, N. A. Dolganov, A. Alam, M. B. Cohen, S. B. Calderwood, G. K. Schoolnik and A. Camilli (2002) Nature, 417, 642-645.], from gene expression studies in minimal growth conditions and LB rich medium, and from clinical tests that identify V.cholerae. Expression data provide evidence supporting 92 (53%) of the 171 pathways. The clinical tests provide evidence supporting seven pathways, with six pathways supported by both methods. VchoCyc provides biologists with a useful tool for analyzing this organism's metabolic and genomic information, which could lead to potential insights into new anti-bacterial agents. VchoCyc is available in the BioCyc database collection (http://BioCyc.org).

Project description:Investigation of 5' transcripts using strand specific sequencing for T. maritima under logphase, maltose minimal media growth conditions
Project description:Investigation of 5' transcripts using strand specific sequencing for T. maritima under logphase, maltose minimal media growth conditions Two replicate samples were sequenced after isolating total RNA of cultures grown in maltose minimal media. Cells were harvested in logphase growth.
Project description:Plasmids were constructed harboring protospacers that are perfect targets for spacers #4 and #21 of the array, but contain NNN (all possible PAM combinations) immediately upstream of the protospacer. The plasmids were introduced into V. cholerae with or without a functional CRISPR-cas system and cells were plated on selective media. Cells were collected and the protospacer plasmids were sequenced in a high throughput manner. PAMs were counted using a custom python script
