Project description:Transcriptional and translational profiling of R. sphaeroides WT 2.4.1 under singlet oxygen stress compared to control (no stress) conditions
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of R. sphaeroides Δlov compared to control R. sphaeroides 2.4.1 under singlet oxygen stress, aerobic conditions
Project description:Transcriptional and translational profiling of R. sphaeroides WT 2.4.1 under singlet oxygen stress compared to control (no stress) conditions RNA samples collected at time-point zero and at different time-points after singlet oxygen stress were analyzed by two-color microarrays
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of R. sphaeroides delta-cryB compared to control R. sphaeroides 2.4.1 under photo-oxidative stress, aerobic conditions. Two-strain experiment under 20' photo-oxidative stress (singlet oxygen generated by methylene blue under high light illumination) and aerobic (180 µM) conditions
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of R. sphaeroides Δlov compared to control R. sphaeroides 2.4.1 under singlet oxygen stress, aerobic conditions Two-strain experiment with overnight cultures of the wild type 2.4.1 and the Δlov mutant. Both were diluted to an OD660 of 0.2 and gassed to adjust aerobic conditions (≈ 170 µM O2). 0.2 µM of methylene blue was added to the cultures to act as photosensitizer. After one doubling time of growth in the darkness cells were illuminated with 800 W m-2 of white light for 7 min.
Project description:DNA microarray analysis was employed to investigate the transcriptome response to nitrosative stress in a non-denitrifying facultative photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1. We focused on the role played by a nitric oxide-response transcriptional regulator NnrR in the response. The transcriptome profiles of R. sphaeroides 2.4.1 and its nnrR mutant before and after exposure to nitrosating agents S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) under semiaerobic conditions were analyzed.
