Project description:We report the use of differential RNA-sequencing for the determination of the primary transcriptome of wildtype Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168. This allows for the genome-wide determination of transcription start sites.
Project description:We report the use of RNA-seq analysis for the determination of RPKM transcript levels in wildtype and fur perR mutant of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168. This allows for comparison of gene expression levels. Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 wildtype and fur perR mutant were grown to late log phase, RNA was purified and used for RNA-sequencing by Illumina HiSeq sequencing

Project description:Erythromycin is the drug of choice to treat campylobacteriosis, but resistance to this antibiotic is rising. The adaptive mechanisms employed by Campylobacter jejuni to erythromycin treatment remain unknown. The aim of this study is to determine the molecular basis underlying CampylobacterM-bM-^@M-^Ys immediate response to Ery treatment. The design utilized an available two color microarray slide for the entire transcriptome of Campylobacter jejuni wild type strain NCTC 11168. One hybridizations were performed: sham-treated NCTC 11168 v.s. lethal dose erythromycin treated NCTC 11168. Samples were independently grown and harvested. There were three biological replicates of each sample.

The design utilized an available two color microarray slide for the entire transcriptome of Campylobacter jejuni wild type strain NCTC 11168. One hybridizations were performed: sham-treated NCTC 11168 v.s. sub-lethal dose erythromycin treated NCTC 11168. Samples were independently grown and harvested. There were three biological replicates of each sample.
Project description:We report the use of differential RNA-sequencing for the determination of the primary transcriptome of the fur perR mutant of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168. This allows for the genome-wide determination of transcription start sites. Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 fur perR mutant was grown to late log phase, RNA was purified and used for differential RNA-sequencing by 454 sequencing with barcoded libraries, and used for determination of genome-wide transcription start sites

Project description:In order to understand the cellular mechanisms that facilitate a surface-associated lifestyle, expression profiles were determined at the levels of transcription and translation for sessile and planktonic Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 (obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC 700819)). These investigations indicate that the immobilized bacteria undergo a shift in cellular priorities away from metabolic, motility and protein synthesis capabilities towards emphasis on iron uptake, oxidative stress defense and membrane transport. Keywords: transcript profiling
Project description:The screening of a cDNA derived expression library of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 expressed in E. coli using a fusion construct and specific HaloTag interaction to a modified surface is shown. 1536 different clones were screened including positive (hisJ, cjaA, peb1a) and negative (argC, pyrC, gapA) reference proteins. The goal of the screening was to identify potential novel immunogenic proteins from C. jejuni by selecting clones showing a high signal intensity in comparison to the known antigens used as positive markers. Afterwards, the most promising clones were sequenced to identify the gene and corresponding protein, and these proteins were then investigated further. Consequently, 22 novel immunogenic proteins could be identified.
