Project description:KaiC is the central cog of the circadian clock in Cyanobacteria. Close homologs of this protein are widespread among bacteria not known to have a circadian physiology. The function, interaction network, and mechanism of action of these KaiC homologs are still largely unknown. Here, we focus on KaiC homologs found in environmental Pseudomonas species. We characterize experimentally the only KaiC homolog present in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 and Pseudomonas protegens CHA0. Through phenotypic assays and transcriptomics, we show that KaiC is involved in osmotic and oxidative stress resistance in P. putida and in biofilm production in both P. putida and P. protegens.
Project description:Some soil bacteria promote plant growth, including Pseudomonas species. With this approach we detected significant changes in Arabidopsis genes related to primary metabolism that were induced by the bacteria.
Project description:Some soil bacteria promote plant growth, including Pseudomonas species. With this approach we detected significant changes in Arabidopsis genes related to primary metabolism that were induced by the bacteria. Pseudomonas G62 was applied to roots of 18 day-old Arabidopsis seedlings and the transcriptional profile of whole seedlings after 6 hours of treatment was analyzed.
Project description:Even though accessions of one species are genetically very closely related to each other, they may show significantly different susceptibility or resistance towards abiotic and biotic stresses. The Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Col-0 and C24 differ significantly in their resistance against the pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst). To identify the molecular mechanisms contributing to this naturally occurring variety in resistance against Pst, we analysed changes in transcripts in Col-0 and C24 upon infection with Pst.
Project description:The goals of this dual-seq experiment were to 1) identify transcriptional changes between mono-species and dual-species biofilms of Candida albicans and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 2) identify transcriptional changes within mono- or dual-species P. aeruginosa biofilm cells in response to meropenem treatment.
Project description:Pseudomonas fragi is the predominant bacterial species associated with spoiled aerobically stored chilled meat worldwide. It readily forms biofilms on meat under refrigerated temperature conditions used in meat industry. Biofilm growth leads to slime development on meat which becomes a major quality defect. In this research, RNA sequencing was carried out for the main stages of P. fragi strain 1793 grown on aerobically stored meat, kept at 10 °C. RNA was extracted at different stages of the biofilm cycle namely initiation, maturation and dispersal. The key objectives of this study was to investigate which genes are expressed at each of these stages as well as to understand the causes of P. fragi biofilm dipersal.
Project description:ErfA is a transcription factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We here define the genome-wide binding sites of ErfA by DAP-seq in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 and IHMA87, Pseudomonas chlororaphis PA23, Pseudomonas protegens CHA0 and Pseudomonas putida KT2440.
