Project description:RNA sequencing was carried out by ARK genomics, Edinburgh on an Illumina HiSeq platform to compare gene expression in Acinetobacter baumannii strain AYE and an adeRS deletion mutant in this strain.
Project description:RNA sequencing was carried out at the University of Birmingham on an Illumina MiSeq platform to compare gene expression in Acinetobacter baumannii strain AYE and an adeB deletion mutant in this strain.
Project description:RNA sequencing was carried out at BGI, Hong Kong on an Illumina HiSeq platform to compare gene expression in Acinetobacter baumannii strain S1 and an adeAB deletion mutant in this strain.
Project description:A major reservoir for spread of the emerging pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is hopsital surfaces, where bacteria persist in a desiccated state. To identify gene products influencing desiccation survival, a transposon sequencing (Tn-seq) screen was performed. Using this approach, we identified genes both positively and negatively impacting the desiccation tolerance of A. baumannii.
Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii AB042, a triclosan-resistant mutant, was examined for modulated gene expression using whole genome sequencing, transcriptomics, and proteomics in order to understand the mechanism of triclosan-resistance as well as its impact on A. Baumannii.
Project description:In this study we compare logrithmically grown Acinetobacter baumannii wildtype to a transposon mutant that is disrupted in gshA, the first step in glutathione biosynthesis using RNASeq to identify novel pathways where glutathione may be involved.
Project description:We report the transcriptional expression from wild type, a ponA mutant, and lipooligosaccharide-deficient A. baumannii in order to understand the cellular changes after inactivation of lipid A biosynthesis. Among all strains, genes in the Localization Of Lipoprotein (Lol) transport pathway were upregulated. This study provides a framework to understand how some Acinetobacter baumannii strains can survive without lipid A and lipopolysaccharide/lipooligosaccharide.
