Project description:To further determine the origin of the increased virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 compared to Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, we report a transcriptomic approach through RNA sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutioned sistems-based analsis of transcriptomic pathways. The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptomic profile of all 5263 orthologous genes of these nearly two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Project description:The previously uncharacterized proteins HigB (unannotated) and HigA (PA4674) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 were found to form a type II TA system in which antitoxin HigA masks the RNase activity of toxin HigB through direct binding. To determine the physiological role of HigB/HigA in P. aeruginosa, a whole-transcriptome experiment was performed for the higA antitoxin deletion mutant of the PA14 strain compared to the wild-type PA14 strain. The rationale was that for the strain that lacks the antitoxin, the effect of the toxin could be discerned due to enhanced activity of the toxin. Furthermore, toxin HigB reduces production of the virulence factors pyochelin, pyocyanin, swarming, and biofilm formation.
Project description:Comparative transcriptome analyses of P. aeruginosa PA14 pyrF mutant with PA14 wild type, and with PA14 pyrF mutant with 1 mM uracil supplement and PA14 wild type with 10 mM uracil in biofilm cells. All samples were cultured in LB with glass wool at 37C for 7h. Keywords: Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm pyrF uracil
Project description:We have tested the effect of deletion of Topoisomerase I on genes transcription of the bacteria Pseudomonas. aeruginosa. Topoisomerase I is a conserved protein that modulate the topology state of the DNA from super-coiled to relaxed. To this end we have compared the transcription profile of a topA::GentR mutant to that of the wild-type strain. The topA mutant contains in topA gene a Mariner transposon with a gentamicin resistance cassette. It is part of the non-redundant mutant library of P. aeruginosa PA14 strains.
Project description:To gain insights into the mechanisms by which RC301 compensates for the deficiency in the NPR-1 controlled immune and behavioral responses of strain DA650, we determine the whole-genome expression profile of these two strains upon exposure to Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PA14
Project description:In this experiment the transcriptional profile of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 two-component sensor kinase PA4398 was investigated under swarming conditions using DNA microarrays. To this aim three independent cultures of the PA14 wild-type and the PA4398 mutant were grown until mid-log phase in Luria-Bertani broth following an incubation on BM2-swarm plates containing 0.1 % (wt/vol) casaminoacids and 0.5 % (wt/vol) agar for 20 h at 37 °C. Subsequent total RNA was extracted from the leading edge of dendritic swarm colonies and analyzed by microarrays.
