Project description:To address the question of how photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris metabolize lignin derived compound p-coumarate, transcriptomics and quantitative proteomics were combined to characterize gene expression profiles at both the mRNA level and protein level in Rhodopseudomonas palustris grown with succinate, benzoate, and p-coumarate as the carbon source. Keywords: Comparison of transcriptome profiles
Project description:To address the question of how photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris metabolize lignin derived compound p-coumarate, transcriptomics and quantitative proteomics were combined to characterize gene expression profiles at both the mRNA level and protein level in Rhodopseudomonas palustris grown with succinate, benzoate, and p-coumarate as the carbon source. Transcriptome profiles among Rhodopseudomonas palustris cells grown with succinate, benzoate, and p-coumarate as the carbon source were compared.
Project description:Rhodopseudomonas palustris strain SA008.1.07 can use syringic acid as sole organic carbon source anaerobically. Grew all anaerobically in various carbon sources: syringic acid, succinate, and p-hydroxybenzoic acid.
Project description:Characterization of post-translational modification of nitrogenase in Rhodopseudomonas palustris strains that produce hydrogen gas constitutively.
