Project description:Transcription profiles in BL21, BL21/pOri1 and BL21/pOri2 were analysed using DNA microarray technology. BL21, BL21/pOri1 or BL21/pOri2 strains were cultured at chemostat status and harvested after the cultivation arrived steady status. Keywords: Effects of plasmid DNA on Escherichia coli metabolism
Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in colon is associated with psychiatric disorders.
Project description:We performed a high-throughput mapping of the 5’ end transcriptome of the pAA plasmid of the clinical Escherichia coli O104:H4 (E. coli O104:H4) isolate LB226692. We employed differential RNA-sequencing (dRNA-seq), a terminator exonuclease (TEX)-based RNA-seq approach allowing for the discrimination of primary and processed transcripts. This method has proven to be a powerful tool for the mapping of transcription start sites (TSS) and detection of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in bacteria. We catalogued pAA-associated TSS and processing sites on a plasmid-wide scale and performed a detailed analysis of the primary transcriptome focusing on pAA virulence gene expression.
Project description:Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.
Project description:In order to understand the impact of genetic variants on transcription and ultimately in changes in observed phenotypes we have measured transcript levels in an Escherichia coli strains collection, for which genetic and phenotypic data has also been measured.
Project description:To investigate the regulatory targets of the RegR virulence regulon of rabbit specific enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strain E22
