Project description:We performed differential RNA-sequencing (dRNA-seq) experiments in both minimal medium (MM) plus β-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB) and MM plus tetralin (THN) of Sphingopyxis granuli strain TFA. The objective was mapping the Transcription Start Site (TSS) of each gene in the genome in both conditions, detecting non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and comparing the gene expression profile in a preferential carbon source (β-HB) versus tetralin (an aromatic pollutant). The dRNA-seq technique consists of using a termination exonuclease (TEX) to allow the discrimination of primary and processed transcripts. Furthermore, to detect Hfq-bound RNAs we co-immunoprecipitated RNA from the wild type strain (negative control) and a TFA strain with an Hfq-3xFlag tagged version (MPO501 strain) using an anti-3xFlag antibody and performed RNA-sequencing from the precipitated RNA.
Project description:A comparative LFQ-based proteomic analysis was performed to assess differences in protein abundance between Sphingopyxis granuli TFA WT and the small RNA mutant ΔsuhB strains during exponential and stationary growth in minimal medium supplemented with 40 mM β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB)
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Gluconacetobacter xylinus NBRC 3288 delta-fnrG mutant, compared to the wild-type strain.
