Project description:We investigated the anode-specific responses of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, an exoelectroactive ammaproteobacterium, using for the first time iTRAQ and 2D-LC MS/MS driven membrane proteomics to compare protein abundances in S. oneidensis when generating power in MFCs, and growing in a continuous culture.
Project description:We combined high-resolution tiling microarrays and 5'-end RNA sequencing to obtain a genome-wide map of transcription start sites (TSSs) for Shewanella oneidensis MR-1. To test the reliability of these TSSs, we compared our result to those from differential RNA sequencing (dRNA-seq), which discriminates primary and processed ends of transcripts. We found that our identified TSSs tend to have significantly more mapped reads in the TEX(+) sample than the TEX(-) sample. Overall, the dRNA-seq results support the validity of our predictions for TSS.
