Project description:Expression profiles of wild-type and SgrR mutant E. coli strains under aMG and 2-DG-induced stress. Expression profiles of E. coli overexpressing SgrS sRNA.
Project description:Expression profiles of wild-type and SgrR mutant E. coli strains under aMG and 2-DG-induced stress. Expression profiles of E. coli overexpressing SgrS sRNA. Illumina RNA-Seq of total RNA extracted from wild-type, SgrR/SgrS mutant and SgrS overexpressing E. coli strains grown in different conditions.
Project description:Mature tRNA pools were measured using an adaptation of YAMAT-seq (Shigematsu et al., 2017; doi:10.1093/nar/gkx005 ) and further described in (Ayan et al., 2020; doi:10.7554/eLife.57947) in 10 strain-medium combinations (all strains dervied from the model bacterium E. coli MG1655). The aim of the experiment was to investigate the effect of reducing tRNA gene copy number on mature tRNA pools in rich and poor media.
Project description:ChIP-seq investigation of H-NS of Escherichia coli grown in the presence and absence of an antibiotic "Bicyclomycin", a potential inhibitior of transcription termination factor rho.
Project description:In order to study the effects of a mutation to the transcriptional termination regulator Rho (referred to as rho*), we made use of expression microarrays to observe the direct and indirect effects of rho* on gene expression. In addition, we used arrays to map the fitness of strains from transposon mutagenized libraries under four conditions, showing that in each case the majority of genes with significant fitness effects were dependent on the genotype at rho.
