Project description:Transcriptional profiling of A. oleivorans DR1 cells harboring pAST2. Plasmid pAST2 is a tetracycline-resistance plasmid which was isolated from activated sludge (Hong et al., 2014). The complete plasmid sequence was deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank under accession number KC734561 [PMID: 24337108]. Acquisition of TC resistance through plasmid uptake is related to loss of biological fitness and affected host gene expression in oil-degrading soil bacterium, Acinetobacter oleivorans DR1. To identify genes in A. oleivorans DR1 harboring pAST2, the cells were grown to exponential phase (OD600 ~0.4) and total RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of A. oleivorans DR1 cells comparing control untreated wild type cells with norfloxacin treated wild type cells. To identify genes important for norfloxacin stress response in A. oleivorans DR1, the cells were grown to exponential phase (OD600 ~0.5) and treated with norfloxacin (4?g/ml) over a period of 15 min.
