Project description:Genome-wide transcriptional responses of Yersinia entomophaga to shifts in temperature (25 - 37 degrees C) and in vitro and in vivo growth conditions were investigated using RNA-seq.
Project description:Identification the proteins co-secreted with YenTc and compare them to those remaining in yersinia entomophaga cells by bottom-up proteomics.
Project description:Enteropathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis share many traits in terms of infections they cause, but their epidemiology and ecology seem to differ in many ways. Pigs are the only known reservoir for Y. enterocolitica 4/O:3 strains while Y. pseudotuberculosis strains have been isolated from variety of sources including fresh vegetables and wild animals. A comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis with a DNA microarray based on three Yersinia enterocolitica and four Yersinia pseudotuberculosis genomes was conducted to shed light on genomic differences between the enteropathogenic Yersinia. In total 99 strains isolated from various sources were hybridized and analyzed.
