Project description:We integrated genomic and transcriptomic analysis of a newly isolated obligate Methylomonas sp. DH-1 grown on methane and methanol. Comparative transcriptomic analysis between methane and methanol as a sole carbon source revealed different transcriptional responses of Methylomonas sp. DH-1, especially in C1 assimilation, the secondary metabolites pathways and the oxidative stress related genes
Project description:JHM80 strain was obtained by adaptive evolution of Methylomonas sp. DH-1 strain against 8.0 g/L of lactate. The tolerance against lactate of JHM80 was obtained by the overexpression of watR (weak acid tolerance regulator). In order to discover the target genes of WatR, FLAG epitope tag was added to WatR of JHM80 strain and ChIP-seq was performed.
