Project description:We isolated an efficient tetracycline degrading strain Sphingobacterium sp. WM1. To investigate gene expression patterns during tetracycline degradation by strain WM1, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using cultures of strain WM1 with and without tetracycline addition. The RNA-Seq data revealed that 90.44-96.56% of the reads mapped to the genome of Sphingobacterium sp. WM1 across all samples. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis (|log2FC| >2; p < 0.01) showed that 693 genes were significantly up-regulated and 592 genes were significantly down-regulated.
Project description:Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), knows as common plant hormone, is one of the most distributed indole derivatives in the environment. A novel strain, which was able to use IAA as sole source of carbon and nitrogen, was isolated from farm soil, identified and classified as Pseudomonas composti LY1 based on 16S rRNA sequence and genome analysis. The optimal growth conditions for LY1 with IAA are characterized. Proteome profile of strain LY1 to IAA and citrate were analyzed and compared using label free strategy with LC-MS/MS.
