Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is compare the effect of glnA gene in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. methods: The transcriptional and metabolomics analysis the function of glnA in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. Results: The transcriptional and metabolomics showed that the decrease of curdlan production in the ΔglnA mutants may be caused by the insufficient supply of energy ATP conclusion: glnA play an important role in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is compare the effect of phbC gene in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. methods: The transcriptional and metabolomics analysis the function of phbC in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. Results:The transcriptional and metabolomics showed that the decrease of curdlan production in the ΔphbC mutants may be caused by the insufficient supply of energy ATP conclusion:phbC play an important role in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is compare the effect of MetH and MetZ gene in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. methods: The transcriptional and metabolomics analysis the function of metH and metZ in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546. Results: The transcriptional and metabolomics showed that the decrease of curdlan production in the ΔmetH and ΔmetZ mutants may be caused by the insufficient supply of energy ATP conclusion: MetH and MetZ play an important role in curdlan synthesis in Agrobacterium sp. CGMCC 11546
Project description:Ixodes pacificus, the vector of Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) on the west coast, feeds on a variety of hosts including rodents, birds, and lizards. While rodents are reservoirs for Bb and can infect juvenile ticks, lizards are Bb-refractory. Despite the range of bloodmeals for I. pacificus, it is undetermined how larval host bloodmeal identity may affect future nymphal vector competence. Here, we conducted a transcriptome analysis on I. pacificus to determine whether and through what mechanisms host bloodmeal history affects vector competency of I. pacificus for the Lyme disease pathogen.
