Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in S. pneumoniae KCTC 5080T, S. mitis KCTC 3556T, S. oralis KCTC 13048T, and S. pseudopneumoniae CCUG 49455T. This proves that transcriptional profiling can facilitate in elucidating the genetic distance between closely related strains. A one chip study using total RNA recovered from S. pseudopneumoniae CCUG 49455T with three strain. For the the transcriptome of S. pseudopneumoniae CCUG 49455T was analyzed using the S. pneumoniae R6 microarray platform and compared with those of S. pneumoniae KCTC 5080T, S. mitis KCTC 3556T, and S. oralis KCTC 13048T strains.

Project description:Comparisson of expression profiling of a etrA deletion mutant strain (experimental sample) with that of the wild type Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 strain to assess global direct/indirect genetic regulation EtrA in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 shares 73.6% and 50.8% amino acid sequence identity with the oxygen-sensing regulator Fnr in E. coli and Anr in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively; however, its regulatory role of anaerobic metabolism in Shewanella spp. is complex and not well understood. Whole-genome expression profiling using a etrA gene deletion mutant as the experimental sample and the wild type strain as the reference, determine that EtrA fine-tunes the expression of genes involved in various anaerobic metabolic pathways, including nitrate, fumarate and dimethyl sulfoxide reduction. Moreover, genes involved in prophage activation and and genes implicated in aerobic metabolism were also differentially expressed. In contrast to previous studies that attributed a minor regulatory role to EtrA in Shewanella spp., this study demonstrates that EtrA acts as a global transcriptional regulator and cofers physiological advantages to the strain under certain growth conditions.
Project description:To identify the transcriptional targets of the DNA-binding response regulator HnoC (SO_2540), mRNA transcript levels in Shewanella oneidensis were measured using whole genome microarray analysis. Transcript levels were compared between WT Shewanella oneidensis and a hnoC deletion strain.
