Project description:Expression profile of wild-type S. ovata and methanol-adapted strain grown autotrophically with H2 as the source of electron. Illumina RNA-Seq of total RNA extracted from a strain of S. ovata evolved by adaptive laboratory evolution to grow faster with methanol 2% as the sole susbtrate and from the wild type. The adapted strain was transfer 18 times on methanol 2%. Total RNA was extracted from both strains growing with H2/CO2.
Project description:We constructed the electroautotrophic bacteria, i.e., Sporomusa ovata together with CdS for artificial photosynthesis that achieved the conversion of carbon dioxide to the acetate. The proteomic analysis in S.ovata-CdS biohybrids and S.ovata-only groups was conducted to propose the working mechanisms including carbon dioxide fixation, electron transfer, energy metabolism and redox oxygen damage repair.
