Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a E. coli fatty acid overproducing strain with or without heterologous expression of the M. luteus FabH. The strain expressing M. luteus FabH produces more methyl ketones. This study will be further described in Goh, E.B., E.E.K. Baidoo, J.D. Keasling, and H.R. Beller. Engineering of bacterial methyl ketone synthesis for biofuels.
Project description:Illumina HiSeq technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from Suillus luteus ectomycorrhizal roots compared to free-living mycelium . Mycorrhizal roots were harvested after 40 days, pooled and used for RNA extraction. Reads of 2X100bp were generated and aligned to Suillus luteus (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Suilu1/Suilu1.home.html) using CLC Genomics Workbench 6. mRNA profiles from Suillus luteus ectomycorrhizal roots and free-living mycelium were generated by paired-end (2x100bp) Illumina HiSeq2000 sequencing. Two biological replicates were sequenced for mycorrhizal and mycelium samples.
