Project description:Transcriptional profiling of H37Rv (WT), Mut1 and Comp1 bacteria under aerobic (Aer/0 day, i.e 0 D) and hypoxic conditions (Hyp/5 days standing culture, i.e 5 D). Mut1: H37Rv carrying devR gene disruption by in frame insertion of kanamycin resistance cassette and expressing DevRN-Kan fusion protein. Comp1: Mut1 complemented with low copy number plasmid carrying devR gene expressed from its native constitutive upstream promoter. (Reference: Majumdar et al., 2010, PLoS One 5:e9448). Goal is to compare transcriptional patterns of WT, Mut1 and Comp1 strains under aerobic (0 D) and hypoxic (5 D) conditions in vitro.

Project description:Mass Spectrometry based Phosphoproteomics was carried out on M. tuberculosis wild type strain H37Rv and the isogenic mutant strains MtbΔdosR, MtbΔdosS, and MtbΔdosT that were cultured in aerobic as well as hypoxic conditions. During later the oxygen was gradually deprived in cultures that were kept static.
Project description:The present study reports the gene expression data of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and H37RvΔdosSΔdosT (DKO) grown on 0.2 % acetate/glucose under aerobic/hypoxic conditions. Acetate was reported to be present in granulomas of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infected guinea pigs which are also hypoxic. By exposing Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and H37RvΔdosSΔdosT to different combinations of granulomatous stresses (acetate/glucose and aerobic/hypoxic conditions) alongwith other experimental data, we were able to delineate a new signaling pathway that activates DevR (DosR) regulon through Acetyl phosphate. The presence of two pathways highlights the importance of targeting DevR and not DevS/DosT for intercepting DevRST signalling cascade.
