Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Asymptomatic Bacteriuria (ABU) Escherichia coli strain 83972 comparing the progenitor wild type strain ABU83972 with its re-isolates from human bladder colonization (PI-2, PII-4, PIII-4) and in vitro cultivation experiment (4.9). Wild type vs. re-isolate cells. Biological replicates: 3 wild type, 3 re-isolates, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.

Project description:To understand the mechanism of isopropanol tolerance of Escherichia coli for improvement of isopropanol production, we performed genome re-sequencing and transcriptome analysis of isopropanol tolerant E. coli strains obtained from parallel adaptive laboratory evolution under IPA stress.
Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates Two color experiment, Escherichia coli Sakai (reference), clinical and environmental Escherichia coli strains (testers): At least two replicates including a single dye swap for each reference-tester comparison
Project description:Background: This study aimed to explore potential tobramycin-resistant mutagenesis of Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains after spaceflight. Methods: A spaceflight-induced mutagenesis of multi-drug resistant E.coli strain (T1_13) on the outer space for 64 days (ST5), and a ground laboratory with the same conditions (GT5) were conducted. Both whole-genome sequencing and RNA-sequencing were performed. Results: A total of 75 SNPs and 20 InDels were found to be associated with the resistance mechanism. Compared to T1_13, 1242 genes were differentially expressed in more than 20 of 38 tobramycin-resistant E. coli isolates while not in GT5. Function annotation of these SNPs/InDels related genes and differentially expressed genes was performed. Conclusion: This study provided clues for potential tobramycin-resistant spaceflight-induced mutagenesis of E. coli.
Project description:Using comparative genomic hybridization we examined the genome content of 30 isolates of E. coli and Shigella to determine the relative location of E. coli isolates from the human neobladder
Project description:we designed a CRISPR-based chromosome-doubling technique to construct an artificial diploid Escherichia coli cell. The stable diploid E. coli was confirmed by quantitative PCR and third-generation genome sequencing.
