Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates
Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates Two color experiment, Escherichia coli Sakai (reference), clinical and environmental Escherichia coli strains (testers): At least two replicates including a single dye swap for each reference-tester comparison
Project description:Transcriptional profiling comparing Escherichia coli simultaneously exposed to tellurite and CTX with untreated control cells; Tellurite with control; CTX with control
Project description:Transcriptional profiling comparing Escherichia coli simultaneously exposed to tellurite and CTX with untreated control cells; Tellurite with control; CTX with control Three-condition experiment, antibacterial (tellurite; CTX or tellurite/CTX) vs. Untreated control cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 toxicants exposed cells, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:Using comparative genomic hybridization we examined the genome content of 30 isolates of E. coli and Shigella to determine the relative location of E. coli isolates from the human neobladder
Project description:Understand the mechanisms of evolution in large-scale bio-production by tracking population dynamics leading to production decline in mevalonic acid-producing Escherichia coli. Industrial bioproduction entails growth of the production host to large bioreactors (e.g. 1-300 m3). This may put the organism at risk for generating non-producing subpopulations of genetic heterogeneity, which is not phenotypically detected at lab-scale (e.g. 2 L). To study these dynamics, we experimentally simulated these growth durations by passing mevalonic acid-producing E. coli to maintain the populations in exponential growth for 45 generations.
