Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2699 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2699 compared to the WT.
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2460 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2460 compared to the WT.
Project description:Strains: non-producing refernece strain pXMJ19 (CR099 pXMJ19; Goldbeck et al., 2021) and Pediocin-producer pxMJ19 ped (CR099 pXMJ19 Ptac pedACDCg, Goldbeck et al., 2021) Pediocin-producing and non-producing strains of Corynebacterium glutamicum were compared in a whole genome microarray analysis setup in order to identify potential strain optimization targets
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum chassis C1 in comparison to the prophage free strain MB001, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum C1 against MB001. For this purpose RNA was isolated from cells cultivated in CGXII minimal medium with 2% glucose (w v-1) and harvested in the exponential growth phase at an OD600 of 5. Four biological replicates were performed.
Project description:Recently, we established Corynebacterium glutamicum as a suitable production host for various bacteriocins including garvicin Q (GarQ). Here, we establish secretion of GarQ by C. glutamicum via the Sec translocon. At neutral pH, the cationic peptide is efficiently adsorbed to the negatively charged envelope of producer bacteria limiting availability of the bacteriocin in culture supernatants. Using a reporter strain and proteomic analyses, we identified HtrA, a protease associated with secretion stress, as another potential factor limiting GarQ production.
