Project description:Expression arrays comparing Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 during growth in the cecum of germ-free C57 BL/6 IL-10 knockout mice to C. jejuni NCTC11168 during growth in Bolton broth.
Project description:Termination site sequencing (term-seq) (Dar et al., 2016) was used to map transcript 3' ends and potential processing sites in Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 wildtype and ribonuclease deletion strains.
Project description:This study investigates the CsrA regulon of the food-borne pathogen Campylobacter jejuni. Direct RNA binding targets of CsrA in two strains of C. jejuni, NCTC11168 and 81-176, were determined using RIP-seq.
Project description:Expression arrays comparing Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 during growth in the cecum of germ-free C57 BL/6 IL-10 knockout mice to C. jejuni NCTC11168 during growth in Bolton broth. Four biological replicates comparing C. jejuni NCTC11168 growth in vivo to in vitro. Two biological replicates were dye swaps.
Project description:Campylobacter, a major foodborne pathogen, is increasingly resistant to macrolide antibibotics. Previous findings suggested that development of macrolide resistance in Campylobacter requires a multi-step process, but the molecular mechanisms involved in the process are not known. In our study, erythromycin-resistant C. jejuni mutant (R) was selected in vitro by stepwise exposure of C. jejuni NCTC11168(S) to increasing concentrations of erythromycin.The resistant were subjected to microarray and the the global transcriptional profile was analyzed. In this series, DNA microarray was used to compare the gene expression profiles of the macrolide-resistant strain with its parent wild-type strain NCTC11168. A large number of gene showed significant changes in R. The up-regulated genes in the resistant strains are involved in miscellaneous periplasmic proteins, efflux protein and putative aminotransferase, while the majority of the down-regulated genes are involved in electron transport, lipoprotein, heat shock protein and unknown function proteins. The over-expression of efflux pump and periplasmic protein was involved in the development of resistance to macrolide in C. jejuni. An eight chip study using total RNA recovered from four separate resistant-type cultures of Erythrocin-resistant Campylobacter jejuni NCTC111168 (R) and four separate cultures of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC111168 (S). Each chip measures the expression level of 1634 genes from Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168.
Project description:Transcriptional profile of C. jejuni NCTC11168 while growing in MEM medium containing L-fucose. We hypothesize that certain C. jejuni strains, containing A certain genomic island, have acquired the ability to metabolize fucose. This study demonstrates the transcriptional profile C. jejuni growth while utilizing fucose.
Project description:RNA-seq was used to study gene expression profiles and potential processing sites in Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 wildtype and RNase Y (rny, Cj1209) deletion.

Project description:A highly pathogenic Campylobacter jejuni clone has recently emerged as the major cause of Campylobacter-associated sheep abortion in the U.S. and is also associated with foodborne gastroenteritis in humans. A distinct phenotype of this clone is its ability to induce bacteremia and abortion. To facilitate understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of this hyper virulent clone, the differences in global gene expression patterns between this hyper virulent clone (IA3902) and a non-abortifacient strain (NCTC 11168) were compared by DNA microarray. One-condition experiment, IA3902 vs NCTC11168. Biological replicates: 3 IA3902 , 3 NCTC11168. One replicate per array.
