Project description:Comparative transcriptome analyses of P. aeruginosa PA14 pyrF mutant with PA14 wild type, and with PA14 pyrF mutant with 1 mM uracil supplement and PA14 wild type with 10 mM uracil in biofilm cells. All samples were cultured in LB with glass wool at 37C for 7h. Keywords: Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm pyrF uracil

Project description:To further determine the origin of the increased virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 compared to Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, we report a transcriptomic approach through RNA sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutioned sistems-based analsis of transcriptomic pathways. The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptomic profile of all 5263 orthologous genes of these nearly two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Project description:The previously uncharacterized proteins HigB (unannotated) and HigA (PA4674) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 were found to form a type II TA system in which antitoxin HigA masks the RNase activity of toxin HigB through direct binding. To determine the physiological role of HigB/HigA in P. aeruginosa, a whole-transcriptome experiment was performed for the higA antitoxin deletion mutant of the PA14 strain compared to the wild-type PA14 strain. The rationale was that for the strain that lacks the antitoxin, the effect of the toxin could be discerned due to enhanced activity of the toxin. Furthermore, toxin HigB reduces production of the virulence factors pyochelin, pyocyanin, swarming, and biofilm formation.
