ABSTRACT: MinION sequencing of Francisella guangzhouensis FSC996 (08HL01032, 5, CCUG 60119, NCTC 13503) isolated from air conditioning systems in Guangzhou city, China.
Project description:To understand differences of gene expression profiles between Francisella strains RNA profiles of Francisella strains were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using NovaSeq6000. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Our study represents the first detailed differential transcriptomic analysis of Francisella strains , with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.
Project description:Comparison of expression profiles of strains of Francisella to identify virulence factors We used custom microarrays to detail the global gene expression of four strains of Francisella (Schu4, LVS, OR960246, U112) and identified distinct classes of differentially expressed genes during this process.
Project description:Differential expression in human peripheral blood monocytes between F. novicida-infected and uninfected, and between Francisella tularensis tularensis isolate Schu S4 and uninfected. The goal was to examine genomewide transcriptional reponses to these two strains, and identify differentially-regulated genes that may help explain the virulence of Schu S4.

Project description:Francisella tularensis may enter the body thorugh the lungs and cause fatal infection. In this study the inflammatory response to the virulent strain of Francisella (Schu4) was mapped over a 96h time-course using a custom microarray.
Project description:Comparison of expression profiles of strains of Francisella to identify virulence factors We used custom microarrays to detail the global gene expression of four strains of Francisella (Schu4, LVS, OR960246, U112) and identified distinct classes of differentially expressed genes during this process. All the strains of Francisella were grown to optical density of 0.6 in a chemical defined medium and their expression profiles were compared.
Project description:We present the complete genome sequence of Francisella guangzhouensis strain 08HL01032(T), which consists of one chromosome (1,658,482 bp) and one plasmid (3,045 bp) with G+C contents of 32.0% and 28.7%, respectively.
