Project description:The profiles of transcripts from the planktonic cells and biofilm cells of V. vulnificus were compared by using a V. vulnificus whole-genome microarray Two-condition experiment, planktonic cells vs. biofilm cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 experimental, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array. For transcriptome analysis, the V. vulnificus whole genome TwinChip, manufactured and kindly provided by the 21C Frontier Microbial Genomics and Applications Center (Daejeon, South Korea), was used.

Project description:Two-condition experiment, Wild-type biofilm cells vs. smcR mutant biofilm cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 mutant strains, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array. A significant portion of the SmcR regulon predicted on the basis of microarray analysis results is indeed regulated by SmcR and that SmcR functions on biofilm dispersion in V. vulnificus.

Project description:Vibriosis caused by Vibrio vulnificus on eels represents an important threat for this specie under culture conditions. Development of new transcriptomic tools is essential to increase the knowledge of eel biology, that nowadays is scarcer. Therefore, using previous results obtained by 454 sequencing of the eel immune-enriched transcriptome, an eel-specific custom microarray have been designed. Gills transcriptomic pattern were analyzed as a principal portal of entry for pathogens in fish after 1h of bath infection with Vibrio vulnificus to describe gill immune response. Moreover, two different strains were used, vibro vulnificus wild type (R99) and rtx double mutant (CT285), to asses the virulence of these pathogen caused by MARTX.

Moreover, two different strains were used, vibro vulnificus wild type (R99) and rtx double mutant (CT285), to asses the virulence of these pathogen caused by MARTX. Adult european eels were bath infected with two Vibrio vulnificus strains, the wild type and double Rtx mutant (CT285). After 0, 3, 12h post-infection eel gills were sampled. Three individuals per experimental point were sampled, including a Control group and a Handling control group. Obtaining a total of 24 samples. The transcriptomic profile was described for each individual sample.
Project description:Vibrio vulnificus multiply rapidly in host tissues under iron overloaded conditions. To understand the effects of iron in the physiology of this pathogen we performed a genome-wide transcriptional analysis of this bacterium growing under three different iron concentrations. V.vulnificus CMCP6 cells were grown under three different iron concentrations (TSBS + EDDA 50uM, TSBS and TSBS + FAC 250 ug/ml) and samples taken at log phase. Keywords: Response to the iron concentration of the media
Project description:In order to analyze the transcripts of Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) and Vibrio vulnificus MO6-24/O simultaneously, Vibrio vulnificus MO6-24/O was infiltrated onto Arabidopsis leaves and then leaves were harvested at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h post-infiltration. A total of 31, 128, 303, 219 and 130 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of Vibrio were up- and down-regulated at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h post-infiltration (hpi). Meanwhile, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were monitored at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h post-infiltration. A total of 2,097, 1,839, 1,220, 1,170 and 1,383 genes were characterized at each time points in Arabidopsis. Our data clearly indicate that total transcripts of the marine bacterial pathogen V. vulnificus MO6-24/O are detected and analyzed in plant Arabidopsis and two organisms were inter-communicated at the same time under favorable conditions.

Keywords: Response to the iron concentration of the media Strains were grown to an OD600nm of 0.6 to 0.8 in TSBS, TSBS with the addition of 250 μg/ml FAC or TSBS with the addition of 50 μM EDDA. Three independent cultures of the V. vulnificus cells grown in each media, were combined and treated as a single sample for the RNA extraction to minimize culture variation. Two samples per condition were used for the microarray analysis. Cells were centrifuged and the pellets resuspended in RNAWiz reagent (Ambion®, Austin, TX). Total RNA was extracted from each strain according to the manufacturerâ??s instructions
