Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in colon is associated with psychiatric disorders.
Project description:Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.
Project description:Escherichia coli (E. coli) amine oxidase (ECAO) encoded by tynA gene has been one of the model enzymes to study the mechanism of oxidative deamination of amines to the corresponding aldehydes by amine oxidases. The biological roles of ECAO have been less addressed. Therefore we have constructed a gene deletion Escherichia coli K-12 strain, E. coli tynA-, and used the microarray technique to address its function by comparing the total RNA gene expression to the one of the wt. Our results suggest that tynA is a reserve gene for stringent environmental conditions and its gene product ECAO a growth advantage compared to other bacteria due to H2O2 production.
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare gene expression data for a well known model organism (Escherichia coli) using different technologies (NGS here, microarray from GSE48776).
Project description:Purpose: In this study, Escherichia coli DH5alpha whole transcriptome sequencing was performed in order to compare the different gene expression profiles between control and exposed to Wi-Fi radiofrequency radiations. Methods:Escherichia coli DH5alpha were exposed to Wi-Fi radiations. Total RNA samples( control and exposed ) were extracted by bacteria protect-Rneasy kit,treated with DNAase and subjected to sequnecing using an Illumina-NovaSeq 6000 platform. Library preparation and sequencing were performed by Macrogen (south korea).Trimmed reads are mapped to reference genome with Bowtie. HTseq was used for expression profiling. Expression profile was calculated for each sample and gene as read count.
