Project description:Halomonas titanicae strain BH1 is a heterotrophic, aerobic marine bacterium which was isolated from rusticles of the RMS Titanic wreck. Here we report the draft genome sequence of this halophilic gammaproteobacterium.
Project description:Biomanufacturing remains financially uncompetitive with the lower cost but higher carbon emitting hydrocarbon based chemical industry. Novel chassis organisms may enable cost reductions with respect to traditional chassis such as E. coli and so open an economic rout to low emission biomanufacturing. Extremophile bacteria exemplify that potential. Salt tolerant halomonas species thrive in conditions inimical to other organisms. Their adoption would eliminate the cost of sterilising equipment. Novel chassis are inevitably poorly understood in comparison to established organisms. Rapid characterisation and community data sharing will facilitate organisms’ adoption for biomanufacturing. This paper describes baseline proteomics data set for Halomonas bluephagenesis TD01 under active development for biomanufactoring. The data record comprises a newly sequenced genome for the organism; evidence for expression of 1150 proteins (30% of the proteome) including baseline quantification of 1050 proteins (27% of the proteome) and a spectral library enabling re-use for targeted proteomics assays. Protein data is annotated with KEGG Orthology enabling rapid matching of quantitative data to pathways of interest to biomanufacturing.
Project description:The aim of the experiment was to compare to single and combined effect of Ikaros activation and IL-7 withdrawal in the Ikaros-null pre-B cell line BH1 The mouse BH1 pre-B cell line was transduced with retroviruses encoding Bcl2 and an Ikaros-estrogen receptor fusion protein. Doubly transduced cells were purified by FACS (BH1-Bcl2-Ik1ER). The transcriptome of these cells was analyzed at time 0, and after 6h and 24h of induction of Ikaros activity with 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4OHT) and/or withdrawal of IL-7. Samples from 2 independent experiments were analyzed (exp1 and exp2).
