Project description:To identify the FurA regulon in Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155, we constructed a furA triple mutant with deletion of three furA paralogous genes (MSMEG_6383, MSMEG_3460, and MSMEG_6253) and profiled the transcriptomes of the wild-type and furA triple mutant strains. Differentially expressed genes were identified pair-wisely by means of the edgeR package in R language. 742 genes were differentially expressed in the furA triple mutant compared to the wild-type strain.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155 delta-MSMEG_0166 mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. MSMEG_0166 is a transcriptional regulator in the gntR family. Mutations in MSMEG_0166 result in hypersensitivity to the bactericidal ubiquitin peptide Ub2, as well as oxidative stress caused by either organic or inorganic agents A three chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate wild-type cultures of Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155 and three separate cultures of a MSMEG_0166 mutant strain, Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155 delta-MSMEG_0166, in which MSMEG_0166 is interupted by the insertion of a hygromycin resistance cassette. Each chip measures the expression level of 6,588 genes from Myobacterium smegmatis with five 60-mer probes per transcript and two replicates of each probe for a total of 65,880 experimental probes.
Project description:To identify the SigB and SigE regulons in Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155, we constructed the sigB and sigE mutant strains and profiled the transcriptomes of the wild-type and mutant strains. Differentially expressed genes were identified pair-wisely by means of the DEGseq package in R language. 110 and 271 genes are differentially expressed in the sigB and sigE mutant strains relative to the wild-type strain, respectively.
Project description:Ribosome profiling performed in Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155 wild-type cells versus cells with deletions of genes encoding small ORFs MSMEG_0945 and MSMEG_1916.
Project description:We measured global RNA levels using RNA-seq in Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155 wild-type cells versus cells with deletions of genes encoding small ORFs MSMEG_0945 and MSMEG_1916.
