Project description:Comparison of gene expression profile of the whiB4 mutant strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with the wild type Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV Mtb WhiB4 mutant mRNA was compared with the mRNA of wtMtb H37RV under aerobic conditons
Project description:The numerous sigma factors present in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) are indicative of adaptability to different environmental conditions. In this report we describe the sigma factor B (sigB) regulon and the phenotypes of a MTB sigB mutant strain exposed to different stresses like SDS and Diamide. This experiment set compares expression profiles between H37Rv wild type and H37Rv sigB null mutant as well as under different stress conditions. Both H37Rv wild type and H37Rv sigB null mutants were treated with either 0.05% SDS or 5mM Diamide for 60 min and their expression profiles were compared with untreated wild type or mutant controls.
Project description:Comparison of gene expression profile of the whiB4 mutant strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with the wild type Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV Mtb WhiB4 mutant mRNA was compared with the mRNA of wtMtb H37RV under aerobic conditons Aerbic conditions OD600 nm of 0.4, MtbWhiB4KO vs wtMtb, biological replicates: 3 wt Mtb H37RV and 3 MtbWhiB4 KO
Project description:Gene expression microarray was performed using early log phase culture at 37 degree and 200 rpm followed by RNA extraction from M.tb H37Rv, HigB KO M.tb H37Rv and complemented Hig B KO M.tb H37Rv For gene expression profiling, total RNA was isolated from wild type H37Rv, higB KO mutant strain and complemented strains. The bacterial pellets for M.tb H37Rv wild type, M.tb H37Rv HigB KO mutant strain and complemented strain were resuspended in 1.0 ml TRIzol (Invitrogen Corporation, Carlsbad, CA); mRNA was extracted as per standard protocols and cleaned using RNAeasy columns (Qiagen GmbH, Hilden, Germany). Extracted mRNA (1 μg) was treated with DNase I using the Ambion DNA-free kit (Invitrogen Corporation, Carlsbad, CA) to remove genomic DNA contamination and quantified using Nanodrop 2000c spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, USA). The purity and integrity of RNA samples were assessed Agilent 2100 Bio analyzer (Agilent TechnologiesInc., USA). Further, 25ng of RNA was amplified and labeled using Low input Quick Amp WT Labeling kit (Agilent Technologies, USA). The labeled cRNA was purified using RNAeasy columns (Qiagen, USA) and total yields were quantified using Nanodrop 2000c spectrophotometer.
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:This Series involves two studies: 1) The gene expression of E. coli K-12 BW25113 ompA mutant strain vs. wild type strain glasswool biofilm cells and E. coli K-12 BW25113 ompA mutant vs. wild type polystyrene biofilm cells. 2) The gene expression of E. coli BW25113 ompA/pCA24N_ompA vs. ompA/pCA24N suspension cells.
