Project description:Primary objectives: The study investigates whether a Escherichia coli Nissle-suspenison has a (preventive) antidiarrheal effect in patients with tumors who are treated with chemotherapeutic schemes which are associated with increased occurances of diarrhea. Diarrhea caused by treatment are thought to be reduced in intensity and/or frequency by the treatment with Escherichia coli Nissle-Suspension.
Primary endpoints: Common toxicity criteria (CTC) for diarrhea
Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in colon is associated with psychiatric disorders.
Project description:In the bacterium Escherichia coli, RecG directs DNA synthesis during the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. Examination of RecA binding during double-strand break repair in Escherichia coli in the presence and absence of RecG protein
Project description:Here we have developed a method that combines chromatin immunoprecipitation with next-generation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) and mathematical modeling to quantify RecA protein binding during the active repair of a single DSB in the chromosome of Escherichia coli. Examination of RecA binding during double-strand break repair in Escherichia coli
Project description:Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.
Project description:The transcriptional changes in Escherichia coli upon induction of the SOS response are investigated by utilizing custom designed oligonucleotide microarrays. Keywords: Gene expression during the SOS response in Escherichia coli
Project description:Total RNA was extracted and sequenced from Escherichia coli cultured to log phase and stable phase at 37 ° C and 45 ° C, respectively. The transcriptome data of Escherichia coli under four different growth conditions were obtained.
Project description:NsrR is a nitric oxide sensitive regulator of transcription. In Escherichia coli, NsrR is a repressor of the hmp gene encoding the flavohemoglobin that detoxifies nitric oxide. Several other transcription units (including ytfE, ygbA and hcp-hcr) are known to be subject to regulation by NsrR. In this study, chromatin immunoprecipitation and microarray analysis was used to identify NsrR binding sites in the chromosome of Escherichia coli strain MG1655. Keywords: ChIP-chip
