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: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: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:NsrR is a nitric oxide sensitive regulator of transcription. In Escherichia coli, NsrR is a repressor of the hmp gene encoding the flavohemoglobin that detoxifies nitric oxide. Several other transcription units (including ytfE, ygbA and hcp-hcr) are known to be subject to regulation by NsrR. In this study, chromatin immunoprecipitation and microarray analysis was used to identify NsrR binding sites in the chromosome of Escherichia coli strain MG1655. Keywords: ChIP-chip
Project description:The Antibiotic Resistant Sepsis Pathogens Framework Initiative aims to develop a framework dataset of 5 sepsis pathogens (5 strains each) using an integrated application of genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic and proteomic technologies. The pathogens included in this initiative are: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. This submission pertains to strain B36.
