Project description:Hyperthermophilic bacteria of the genus Thermotoga are known to utilize a wide range of simple and complex polysaccharides. T. maritima's transcriptional response to a variety of mono- and poly-saccharides was previously studied to assign functions to genes involved in carbohydrate uptake and utilization. To compare and contrast closely-related members of the Thermotoga genus, a four-species microarray was developed by expanding a whole genome T. maritima array to include unique genes from three other species (T. neapolitana, T. petrophila, and T. sp. RQ2). This multi-species array was used to investigate the diversity of the genus, specifically the response of each of the four species to a mixture of polysaccharides (galactomannan, glucomannan, xylan, pectin, lichenan, and carboxymethyl cellulose).

RNA derived from glucose-grown cultures (glu) was compared to RNA derived from polysaccharide-grown cultures (poly) using a dye swap setup.

Project description:Whole transcriptome RNA sequencing in brain tissue was generated to explore differences between young and old animals of two closely related species of deer mice (genus Peromyscus) that reportedly differ in their lifespans: P. leucopus that lives for up to 8 years and P. maniculatus that exhibits a lifespan of about 4 years.

Project description:DNA methylation is a widely conserved epigenetic modification that is established and maintained by the cooperative activity of DNA methyltransferases. While the complement of DNA methyltransferase genes can vary substantially between animal species, whole-genome methylation analyses have suggested that major features of animal methylomes are widely conserved. We have now used genome-scale bisulfite sequencing to analyze the methylome of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, which represents an economically important pest with a high degree of phenotypic plasticity. Interestingly, in this system, DNA methylation appears to be both established and maintained by Dnmt1 methyltransferases, which distinguishes locusts from most other known organisms. Our results indicate that the S. gregaria methylome shares preferential methylation of CpG dinucleotides and exons with other animal methylomes. In contrast to other invertebrates, however, overall methylation levels were substantially higher and a significant fraction of transposons was methylated. Additionally, genes were densely methylated in a pronounced bimodal pattern, suggesting a role for DNA methylation in the regulation of locust gene expression. Altogether, our results uncover a unique pattern of genome methylation in locusts and also suggest that animal methylomes may be more diverse than previously thought. Whole exome methylation analysis of S. gregaria. Two samples were analyzed, one sample containing DNA from brain, one sample containing DNA from MTG. To date, there exists no sequenced genome of Schistocerca gregaria; thus, we could only map the data against an EST database (Locust2 EST project) representing the coding part of the genome.

Project description:Salvia is an important genus from the Lamiaceae with approximately 1000 species distributed globally. Several Salvia species are commercially important because of their medicinal and culinary properties. We report the construction of the first fingerprinting array for Salvia species enriched with polymorphic and divergent DNA sequences and demonstrate the potential of this array for fingerprinting several economically important members of this genus.

Project description:As a good niche for bacterial growth, appendix plays a very important role in maintaining and protecting intestinal symbiotic flora. Appendectomy will lead to intestinal microecological disorders. Therefore, we put forward the hypothesis that "appendectomy leads to intestinal microecological disorders and then increases the risk of colorectal cancer". In this study, the feces of normal controls, appendectomy and patients with colorectal cancer were collected, and the specific changes of intestinal flora after appendectomy were explored in detail from the level of family, genus and species by macrogenomic sequencing. Then through functional gene analysis, metabolic pathway analysis and other methods to explore the molecular mechanism of colorectal cancer risk changes and the changes of microflora involved, and verified by mouse fecal bacteria transplantation animal experiment.

Project description:The Xenopus genus is well known for the high degree of polyploidy observed in its constituent species, but there is minimal information about transcriptional changes observed in these highly polyploid vertebrates. Xenopus andrei, an octoploid species within the Xenopus genus, presents a novel system for assessing a polyploid transcriptome during vertebrate development. RNA-Seq data was generated at nine different developmental stages ranging from unfertilized eggs through late tailbud stages. Additionally, using Trinity, RNA-seq data from all nine stages was pooled to create a draft de novo assembly of the transcriptome. This represents the first published assembly of an octoploid vertebrate transcriptome. This RNA-Seq and transcriptome data will be useful in comparing polyploid transcriptomes across Xenopus species, as well as understanding evolutionary implications of whole-genome duplication in vertebrates.

Project description:Collimonas is a genus of soil bacteria which comprises three recognized species: C. fungivorans, C. pratensis and C. arenae. The bacteria belonging to this genus share the ability to lyse chitin (chitinolysis) and feed on living fungal hyphae (mycophagy), but they differ in colony morphology, physiological properties and antifungal activity. In order to gain a better insight into the genetic background underlying this phenotypic variability of collimonads, we investigated the variability in the genomic content of five strains representing the three formally recognized Collimonas species. The genomic content of four test strains was hybridized on an array representing the reference strain C. fungivorans Ter331.

Project description:The genus Lactobacillus contains over 100 different species that were traditionally considered to be uniformly non-motile. However, at least twelve motile species are known to exist in the L. salivarius clade of this genus. Of these, Lactobacillus rumnis is the only motile species that is also autochthonous to the mammalian gastrointestinal tract. The genomes of two L. ruminis strains, ATCC25644 (human isolate, non-motile) and ATCC27782 (bovine isolate, motile) were sequenced and annotated to identify the genes responsible for flagellum biogenesis and chemotaxis in this species. Transcriptome analysis revealed that motility genes were transcribed at a significantly higher level in motile L. ruminis ATCC27782 than in non-motile ATCC25644 during the motile growth phase.

Project description:Sargassum is one of the most diverse brown algal genus with more than 150 known species, mostly benthic and few pelagic species. They contribute significantly to global primary production and serve as important habitat for wide range of marine organisms. Sargassum vulgare is one of the dominant habitat forming species along Mediterranean coast. Despite their huge ecological importance, it is relatively unknown how they will respond under future global climate change scenario. This work used de novo transcriptome sequencing approach to understand the molecular response of S. vulgare to chronic acidification at the shallow underwater volcanic CO2 vents off Ischia Island, Italy. Keywords: brown algae, Sargassum, de novo transcriptome, ocean acidification, CO2 vents.
