Project description:Epidemiological data indicate that strains MGAS315 and MGAS9887 differ significantly in their capacity to cause necrotizing fasciitis infections. To probe the hypothesis that this difference was associated with differences in gene expression, an expression MA comparison of the strains in exponential phase growth in rich media was conducted. Keywords: strain comparison
Project description:Comparative Genomic Hybridization. Analysis of genomic content of closely related Bacillus species. Refer to individual records for strain information. Refer to platform and individual sample records for experimental protocols. Keywords: other
Project description:Five environmental Bacillus strains were sequenced, of which three were isolated from the rhizosphere of agricultural soil and one each from Attock Oil Refinery and Khewra Salt Mine in Pakistan. The strains can be used for plant growth promotion and biosurfactant activity brought about by secondary metabolites.
