Project description:DNA microarray analysis was employed to investigate the transcriptome response to nitric oxide in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We focused on the role played by the nitric oxide-response regulators DNR and FhpR and an oxygen-response regulator ANR in the response. The transcriptome profiles of the P. aeruginosa strains before and after exposure to nitric oxide under the microaerobic conditions were analyzed. Wild type, its anr, dnr, and fhpR mutants, and the anr mutant that express dnr were used for the analyses.

Wild type, its anr, dnr, and fhpR mutants, and the anr mutant that express dnr were used for the analyses. Pseudomonas aeruginosa wild type (PAO1ut), anr mutant (RManr), dnr mutant (RMdnr), anr mutant that constitutively expresses DNR (RManrEXdnr), and fhpR mutant (PDM2665) were cultivated microaerobically in LB in 1-liter jar fermenter. When optical density at 600 nm reached 0.3, nitric oxide-saturated water was added to the medium (final nitric oxide concentration was 20 micro-M). RNA was isolated from a 10 ml aliquot of the culture prior to the addition of nitric oxide and at 5 min after the addition. The experiment was performed in duplicate independent cultures.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to tolerate antibiotic therapy during infection. This prevents clearance of infection and negatively impacts patient outcomes. Here, we report the transcriptome sequence of antibiotic-treated and untreated P. aeruginosa cultures and the differential gene expression observed when treated cells are compared to untreated cells.
Project description:The purpose of this experiment is to analyze the changes of transcriptome in Pseudomonas aeruginosa under the action of sodium houttuyfonate (SH), thus revealing the possible mechanism of sodium houttuyfonate inhibiting P. aeruginosa. We analyzed these data in order to compare the transcriptional differences of P. aeruginosa in SH medication group and blank control group.
Project description:This study addresses the impact of zinc limitation on the opportunistic human pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Zinc limitation was assessed in the P. aeruginosa PAO1 strain using an isogenic deletion mutant lacking the periplasmic, zinc solute-binding protein, znuA (PA5498). ZnuA delivers bound zinc to its cognate ABC transporter, ZnuBC, for import into the cytoplasm. Our transcriptional analyses revealed P. aeruginosa to possess a multitude of zinc acquisition mechanisms, each of which were highly up-regulated in the zinc-deficient znuA mutant strain. P. aeruginosa also utilized zinc-independent paralogues of zinc-dependent genes to maintain cellular function under zinc limitation. Together, these data reveal the complex transcriptional response and versatility of P. aeruginosa to zinc depletion.
