Project description:RNA-seq was performed to examine the overall gene expression in a S. mutans ΔSMU.1147 strain and to identify potential genes that can mainly contribute to the changes of gene expression in S. mutans. Using RNA-seq technique, the differentially expressed genes that are implicated in phenotypic changes of the ΔSMU.1147 strain were studied.
Project description:RNA-seq was performed to examine the overall gene expression in a S. mutans FR strain and to identify potential genes that can mainly contribute to the generation of a fluoride resistance in S. mutans. Using RNA-seq technique, the differentially expressed genes that are implicated in phenotypic changes of the FR strain were studied.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of early logarithmic phase culture (O.D=0.2-0.3) of Streptococcus mutans UA159 comparing control of untreated Streptococcus mutans UA159 bacteria with Streptococcus mutans UA159 bacteria spplemented with 20µM synthetic DPD (pre-AI-2) which regulates gene expression via AI-2 quorum sensing system.Three compairisons were performed at pHs of 7,6 and 5.
