Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level in motile strain of Sphingomonas. sp A1 All flagellar genes in motile strain of Sphingomonas. sp A1 are highly transcribed.
Project description:We isolated an efficient doxycycline degrading strain Chryseobacterium sp. WX1. To investigate gene expression patterns during doxycyclinedegradation by strain WX1, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using cultures of strain WX1 with and without doxycycline addition. The RNA-Seq data revealed that 90.44-96.56% of the reads mapped to the genome of Chryseobacterium sp. WX1 across all samples. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis (|log2FC| >2; p < 0.01) showed that 693 genes were significantly up-regulated and 592 genes were significantly down-regulated.
Project description:We isolated an efficient tetracycline degrading strain Sphingobacterium sp. WM1. To investigate gene expression patterns during tetracycline degradation by strain WM1, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using cultures of strain WM1 with and without tetracycline addition. The RNA-Seq data revealed that 90.44-96.56% of the reads mapped to the genome of Sphingobacterium sp. WM1 across all samples. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis (|log2FC| >2; p < 0.01) showed that 693 genes were significantly up-regulated and 592 genes were significantly down-regulated.
Project description:Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) is a persistent nitramine explosive with long-lasting properties. Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 has been discovered as one of the microorganisms capable of RDX degradation. Despite respectable studies on Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22, the proteins participating in RDX degradation (Oxidoreductase and Cytochrome P450) in the strain remain to be fragments. In this study, complete genome of Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 was sequenced and analyzed, and the entire sequences of the two genes encoding Oxidoreductase and Cytochrome P450 in Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 were predicted, which were validated through proteomic data. Besides, despite the identification of certain chemical substances as proposed characterized degradation intermediates of RDX, few studies have investigated the physiological changes and metabolic pathways occurring within Rhodococcus sp. cells when treated with RDX, particularly through the use of mass spectrometry-based omics. Hence, proteomics and metabolomics of Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 were performed and analyzed with the presence or absence of RDX in the medium. A total of 3186 protein groups were identified and quantified between the two groups, with 117 proteins being significantly differentially expressed proteins. A total of 1056 metabolites were identified after merging positive and negative ion modes, among which 131 metabolites were significantly differential. Through the combined analysis of differential proteomics and metabolomics, several KEGG pathways, including two-component system, ABC transporters, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, arginine biosynthesis, purine metabolism, nitrogen metabolism, and phosphotransferase system (PTS) were found to be significantly enriched. We expect that our investigation will expand the acquaintance of Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22, and the knowledge of microbial degradation.
