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: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:This series presents normalized gene expression profiles of three Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655-derived strains (pygYFP, Y5, and Y6). Strains Y5 and Y6 were originally isolated from 3-week-old aging colonies, but RNA for transcriptomic profiling was extracted from 7-day-old colonies regrown under identical conditions. All samples were hybridized to the NimbleGen GPL9088 one-color microarray platform, and processed values correspond to RMA-normalized, non-log2 intensities. These data compare the parental strain to two evolved isolates carrying distinct regulatory and stress-response mutations, and can be used to study diversification and adaptive strategies emerging in aging bacterial colonies.
Project description:Here, we investigated the impact of Stx2 phage carriage on Escherichia coli (E. coli) K-12 MG1655 host gene expression. Using quantitative RNA-seq analysis, we compared the transcriptome of naïve MG1655 and the lysogens carrying the Stx2 phage of the 2011 E. coli O104:H4 outbreak strain or of the E. coli O157:H7 strain PA8, which share high degree of sequence similarity.

Project description:This series presents normalized gene expression profiles of three Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655-derived strains (pygYFP, Y5, and Y6). Strains Y5 and Y6 were originally isolated from 3-week-old aging colonies, but RNA for transcriptomic profiling was extracted from 7-day-old colonies regrown under identical conditions. All samples were hybridized to the NimbleGen GPL9088 one-color microarray platform. Processed values correspond to RMA-normalized, non-log2 intensities. Raw .pair files and the processed matrix for these samples are provided. These data complement Series 1 and constitute a second biological replicate (B2) for transcriptomic analysis of the parental strain and two evolved isolates carrying distinct mutations affecting regulatory and stress-response pathways in aging bacterial colonies.
