Project description:The conserved endoribonuclease RNase E is essential in Rhodobacter sphaeroides and acts as global regulator of the transcriptome. By comparison of an RNase E mutant (showing reduced enzyme activity) with the Rhodobacter sphaeroides wild type, both grown under three different growth conditions, we analysed the impact of RNase E on the adaption of Rhodobacter sphaeroides to different growth conditions.
Project description:To gain a deeper understanding of the transcription factors that regulate photosynthesis in Rhodobacter sphaeroides ChIP-seq was used to determine the genome-wide binding locations of 4 transcription factors (FnrL, PrrA, CrpK and RSP_2888) known or predicted to be involved in the regulation of photosynthesis. Genome-wide protein-DNA interaction analysis of 4 transcription factors known or predicted to be involved in the regulation of photosynthesis in Rhodobacter sphaeroides, using ChIP-seq and complementary assays.
Project description:mRNA levels were measured in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 at 20% O2 and 0.5% O2, Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 App11 (AppA-null), Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 (pPNs) and PpsR mutant PPS2-4. The mRNA samples were prepared from cultures supplied with 20% O2, 1% CO2, and 79% N2, and grown in the dark to an OD of 0.18. The mRNA levels for each strain was measured three times. Keywords: repeat sample
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE39711: RpoHI and RpoHII regulons in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 from chromatin immuno-precipitation GSE39712: RpoHI and RpoHII regulons in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 from gene expression profiling Refer to individual Series
Project description:In this study, we performed a ChIP-chip experiment to determine the respective regulons of RpoHI and RpoHII in Rhodobacter sphaeroides. We grew R. sphaeroides in aerobic conditions and induced either proteins ectopically and immuno-precipitated the regions of the genomic DNA interacting with the sigma factors.
