Project description:To study the roles of NWMN_0641, we used microarray to compare the transcriptome of the NWMN_0641 deletion strain with that of the wild-type Staphylococcus aureus Newman strain. Transcriptome of the NWMN_0641 deletion mutant strain and the wild-type Newman strain
Project description:ArlRS is a two-component regulatory system in Staphylococcus aureus. Here we use RNA-sequencing to compare gene expression in a wild-type USA300 strain and an isogenic arlRS mutant.
Project description:MgrA is a global regulator of gene expression in Staphylococcus aureus. Here we use RNA-sequencing to compare gene expression in a wild-type USA300 strain and an isogenic mgrA mutant.
Project description:Young adult fer-15;fem-1 Caenorhabditis elegans were infected with Staphylococcus aureus for 8 h to determine the transcriptional host response to Staphylococcus aureus. Analysis of differential gene expression in C. elegans young adults exposed to two different bacteria: E. coli strain OP50 (control), wild-type Staphylococcus aureus RN6390. Samples were analyzed at 8 hours after exposure to the different bacteria. These studies identified C. elegans genes induced by pathogen infection. Keywords: response to pathogen infection, innate immunity, host-pathogen interactions
