Project description:Welan gum is mainly produced by Sphingomonas sp. ATCC 31555 and has broad applications in industry such as that in cement production. Both carbon and nitrogen sources are essential for welan production. However, how nitrogen sources affect the metabolism and gene transcription of welan remains elusive. Here, we used next-generation sequencing RNA-seq to analyze the transcriptome of Sphingomonas sp. ATCC 31555 in the presence of inorganic or organic nitrogen sources. Enriched gene expression and pathway analysis suggest that organic nitrogen sources significantly enhanced the expression of genes in central metabolic pathways of Sphingomonas sp. ATCC 31555 and those critical for welan synthesis compared to that observed using inorganic nitrogen sources. The present study improves our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the use of nitrogen in welan synthesis in Sphingomonas sp., as well as provides an important transcriptome resource for Sphingomonas sp. in relation to nitrogen sources. Sphingomonas sp. ATCC 31555 strain (stored in our laboratory) was first seeded in an inoculum medium (20 g/L glucose, 3 g/L yeast extract, 3 g/L malt extract, and 5 g/L fish meal protein peptone, pH 7.0), and then cultured in a fermentation medium containing 40 g/L sucrose, 4.0 g/L nitrogen source, 0.6 g/L KH2PO4, and 0.2 g/L MgSO4.7H2O at 37°C. The nitrogen sources used in the present study were as follows: NaNO3 (4.0 g/L) as inorganic nitrogen (IN), beef extract (4.0 g/L) as organic nitrogen (ON), and NaNO3 (1.5 g/L) + beef extract (2.5 g/L) as complex nitrogen (CN). All cultivations were conducted in flasks with constant rotary shaking at 400â??1,000 rpm and 37°C.
Project description:This study examines genome-wide expression of the phenanthrene-degrading Sphingomonas sp. LH128 as a response to short-term starvation stress. For this purpose, the strain was subjected to complete nutrient starvation for 4h after growth on a rich medium. Survival was monitored by plating and transcriptomic response was determined by whole-genome microarray analysis. The data showed no major differences were obsrved in gene expression and the viability of the cells were not affected during short-term incubation time Transcriptomic response of phenanthrene degrading Sphingomonas sp. LH128 starved for 4h in isotonic solution of 0.01 mM MgS04 was studied using genome-wide gene expression analysis. For this purpose, the strain was pregrown in minimal medium to an OD600 of 0.5, washed twice with 0.01 mM MgS04 and resuspended in the same solution to an OD of 0.5. RNA was extracted both from starved cells and from the initial culture (non-starved cells) and cDNA was synthesized and labeled with Cy3. Transcriptomic response of three replicates were analyzed and compared with the initial inoculum
Project description:Multilayer murine follicles were grown in 3% alginate and follicles were isolated for transcriptomics analysis at day 0, 2, 4,5,6,and 8 after encapsulation. This data complements to the GSE42795, where follicles were grown in vitro in 0.5% alginate gels
Project description:This study examines genome-wide expression of the phenanthrene-degrading Sphingomonas sp. LH128 as a response to long-term starvation stress. For this purpose, the strain was subjected to complete nutrient starvation for 6 months after growth on a rich medium. Survival was monitored by plating, physiological response was examined by flow cytometry and FAME analysis, and this response was related to transcriptomic response as determined by whole-genome microarray analysis. The data showed that decreased gene functions involved in ribosomal proteins biosynthesis, decreased chromosomal replication, increased gene functions involved in stringent regulation of gene expression, increased gene functions involved in genetic exchange and recombination, increased efflux systems, increased degradation of rRNA, and increased M-NM-2-oxidation of fatty acids to access stored nutrients. Genes involved in PAH degradations appears to be with decreased expression. Transcriptomic response of phenanthrene degrading Sphingomonas sp.
