Project description:Six isolates of PT21/28 and six of PT32 were analysed by CGH using UBECarray3 microarrays (containing probes for E. coli K-12 str. MG1655 and O157:H7 str. EDL933 and Sakai) to define genotypic differences between phage types. gDNA from E.coli O157 str. Sakai was hybridised to all arrays to provide a universal control channel on all arrays.

EDL933 and Sakai) to define genotypic differences between phage types. gDNA from E.coli O157 str. Sakai was hybridised to all arrays to provide a universal control channel on all arrays. gDNA from 12 PT 21/28 & 32 isolates were labelled with Cy5 and control gDNA from str. Sakai was labelled with Cy3. Test and control gDNA was hybridised to UBECarray3 microarrays. The LOWESS normalised relative signal to the Sakai control channel was used to compare between samples.
Project description:We report the different expression level of in vivo transcriptome and DMEM cultured bacteria E.coli O157:H7 samples. After obtaining RNA from mice colon and LB cultured free living cells, RNA samples were purified using an RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) and bacterial rRNAs were depleted using the Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal Kit (Epicentre; #RZNB1056). Library construction of RNA samples was carried out using a NEBNext R UltraTM Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina R (NEB, USA), following the manufacturer’s recommendations. After cluster generation, library preparations were sequenced on an Illumina Hiseq platform to generate paired-end reads.We find that a novel sRNA s77 significantly upregulated compared in vivo samples and LB-cultured sample. This study provides a novel sRNA for further identifications.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of E.coli O157:H7 cells comparing control untreated cells with PEG8000treated cells Two-condition experiment, Control vs. PEG8000. Biological replicates: 1 control, 1 treated.
Project description:Deletion of yedL was found to signifcantly decrease type three secretion in EHEC O157:H7. Transcriptional profiles of Escherichia coli O157: H7 and the isogenic yedL mutant were generated and compared.
Project description:Deletion of yhaO was found to signifcantly decrease type three secretion in EHEC O157:H7. Transcriptional profiles of Escherichia coli O157: H7 and the isogenic yhaO mutant were generated and compared.
