Project description:Mycobacterium dioxanotrophicus PH-06 can degrade 1,4-dioxane (dioxane), which is a groundwater contaminant of emerging concern. In order to find the genes involved in dioxane degradation. RNA sequencing was first used to investigate gene expression levels of PH-06 during growth on two different carbon sources (dioxane and glucose). The sequencing shows that a monooxygenase gene cluster was upregulated when treated with dioxane relative to glucose.
Project description:We present the data obtained from high-resolution ribosome profiling analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis grown under standard conditions (log phase) and cells subjected to oxidative stress (50 µM cumene hydroperoxide) and pH stress (pH 4.5). Our data shows pervasive ribosome pausing in the M. tb translatome. A large number of genes show very high pause immediately downstream to the translation start site. Moreover, serines and alanines in the E site of the ribosome exhibit highest pause scores.
Project description:The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is largely due to its ability to withstand numerous stresses imposed by host immunity. Here, we present a data-driven model that captures these adaptive mechanisms and reveals the dynamic interplay of host-derived stresses and genome-encoded regulatory programs in Mtb. The model captures the genome-wide distribution of cis-acting gene regulatory elements and the conditional influences of transcription factors at those elements to elicit environment-specific responses. Analysis of transcriptional responses that may be essential for Mtb’s survival in acidic conditions identified regulatory control by the MtrAB two-component signal system. This data is a comparison of transcriptional differences (RNA-seq) between low pH (pH 5.6) and neutral pH (pH7) of Mtb
Project description:Comparing the transcriptomic responses between the Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) leuD mutant with the parent strain K-10 under different environmental stresses: nutrition, temperature, anaerobic conditions, high- and low- pH conditions.
Project description:The purpose of this study was to determine (i) the interplay between Mycobacterium tuberculosis response to acidic pH and cholesterol, two signals experienced concurrently by the bacterium during host colonization, and (ii) the role of the transcription factor Mce3R in regulation of this response.
Project description:We sought to identify which genes were dysregulated in hypoxic Mycobacterium tuberculosis upon treatment with C10. We cultured Mycobacterium tuberculosis in an air-tight vessel for 2 weeks in the presence of either DMSO or 50 μM C10, and used RNA-sequencing to compare transcriptional profiles.
Project description:The dataset accompanying a publication describing the RNA degradosome components in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The RNA-bound proteome was determined by affinity purification of protein-RNA complexes from Mycobacterium bovis cells fed with 4-thiouridine and crosslinked via photoactivation at 365nm. Affinity purified RNA-protein complexes were subjected to LC-MS analysis
